Seconded, but what other giants are left to do?

A lot of them, actually:
Bog Giant
Forest Giant
Sun Giant
Sand Giant
Mountain Giant
Death Giant
Fog Giant
Shadow Giant
...
And few more


Now I've lost it, I know I can kill. The truth exists beyond the Gate!

Well, if we are talking about Giants, let's talk about the other end of the size scale.

Petals. Tiny Feys that sign travelers to sleep and then take off their clothing and put clothings made out of leaves on their bodies so the wake up feeling refreshed.

They don't have high CR, I suggest someone does this :)

There's also the Craa'ghoran from MMIV, who are giants whose ancestors were warped by earth elementals.  They can earth glide as an elemental and excel at building traps and fortifications.

Just signed up! I have some requests, but I have a couple questions first:

I'm a Pathfinder player; how easy would these classes be to convert? I know most of the classes and races got buffed a bit; how would these classes hold up? How many of them would need new abilities, especially in the early levels?

And now, some general requests: I could never have too many monsters from mythological origins, especially Norse and Greek myths. I also like genies, so for my first few contributions, I'll try my hand at the Marid, Efreet and Dao/Shaitan (wonder why they changed the name?) Djinni seems like a pretty good base for them...At first I thought they could be Djinn prestige classes/archetypes, but on second thought I think they're just different enough to warrant splitting them out.

p.s. I just noticed, marids are supposedly the strongest genies of them all, but they can only grant wishes annually? Any other noble genie (except Janni), and normal Efreeti can grant daily wishes! It's a bit...odd.

Well, the general consensus I seem to get is that the classes here are stronger than your average 3.5 class, so they shouldn't need any update for PF.  Perhaps just an extra +2 bonus to an ability score that makes sense at first level to make up for PF basic races having more ability scores bonus than in 3.5.  However there's some monster classes that ended lagging behind, in particular earlier ones, and could use updates. Kinda inevitable when there's hundreds done over the span of several years and I seem to be only one who even tries to keep up with all of them to have an idea of the bigger picture. But most of them should still stand on their own pretty well in PF.

People wanting to contribute is always nice to hear, and you're free to take either route, whichever you think is best. Vecna knows I can't even keep up with the request list already in place, so I most probably wouldn't touch those monsters in years.

I blame it on wotc designers not being on drugs when making genies outside of the MM and realizing that daily Wish SLA for pre-epic monsters is a pretty bad design choice.

Speaking of lagging, I wish you'd do your own Drider. The current one is kind of... meh, really. And it has a terrible picture. D:

Hey there. I came over to this board from Myth-Weavers, where these classes are currently enjoying an upswing in popularity and exposure. I wonder if anyone would mind if I contributed some yugoloth classes when I get them finished—specifically, the ultraloth, arcanoloth, and maybe the piscoloth. I've read a lot of the existing classes and the guideline thread, but if you'd prefer that I leave them alone I'll understand.

More yugoloths sounds fine by me, and since I'm kinda the guy in charge around here, if somebody else would a problem with your contribution, they would have a problem with me. :p

(besides there's already been an instance of two people making different class versions of the same monster (the manticore) and both got my approval and added to the index anyway)

I'd love to see a few more creepy monsters like the Spectral Lurker from the Fiend Folio get some love.  You can never have too many aberrations, let alone incorporeal ones.

Chimera, actually. Manticore was all me! :P

Couple of requests.

First - something like an Avatar of the Archdevil Mephistopheles, the one who discovered Hellfire? That'd be awesome.

Second - Something like Cell from Dragon Ball Z. Like, absorbs people, a couple of transformations... no,t hat's it. Any monster classes like that already exist?

Third - I see mention of an Aspect of Atropus. I've searched but haven't found anything like that. Any idea if anyone'll ever actually do that? That sounds bad ass.

The Mindstealer Drone does the absorbing people and transforming into them. That has a writeup. I also have a writeup for a Mindstealer Master PrC that I should post sometime...

I'd very much like to request the various Clockwork Horrors from the MM2. If someone can balance the Adamantine Horror in 9 levels (given its supposed CR), I'll be very impressed
