Creature Search
« on: November 14, 2019, 02:46:38 PM »
D&D 3.5

Searching for a creature that could act as a beast of burden. Ideally low intelligence and immune or highly resistant to both fire damage and negative energy. Evil alignment is fine.

Thanks,
Necro

Animated Object gets Hardness against everything.
A skeleton Mule with a ring of fire resistance.  Spellstich it if it must be part of the critter.  Bonus: cold immunity.

Any valid Animate Dead target with the [Fire] subtype would work.  All ordinary Special Qualities are lost, zombifying a troglodyte makes it smell better.  Somehow.  :psyduck

Equine Golem - Arms & Equipment Guide, p87

Has this unexpected line
Quote
Fire and electricity effects char the golem but do not harm it.

As a construct, it's immune to negative energy and has intelligence --

It does come from a 3.0 book though
