Monsters/Lenses: Faerunian Lenses

Monsters/Lenses: Faerunian Lenses

The only thing that is left unconverted in Monsters of Faerun are some of the templates (lenses in GURPS terms). I will treat the yuan-ti tainted one and broodguard as creatures, not lenses. By the way, these two templates are probably the most reprinted templates/monsters in D&D 3.0/3.5, they are like in 3-4 different books.

    Breathe Fire (14): The hell hound breathes out a blast of fire, dealing thrust 1d-2 burning damage as large-area injury. This is a cone attack that uses rules from Area and Spreading Attacks (pp. B413-414). The cone is 1-yard wide and has a length of 2 yards (ST/5). Each use costs 2 FP. It is possible to make the cone wider by using the rules from Cones of Power (GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Monsters 4: Dragons, p. 10).

Knowing Your Own Strength [974] Replace ST+4 (No Fine Manipulators, -40%; Size Modifier, -30%) [12] with ST+4 [40]

Typical Stats

Dodge:	8	Parry:	N/A	DR:	-

    Sharp Teeth (10): thrust 1d-1 cutting (KYOS: 1d+1 cutting), Reach C. Can only be used against insubstantial beings.
    Antimagic Cone: The central eye emanates a cone of antimagic that suppresses all magical effects and abilities, including the doomsphere’s own eye rays in all his front hexes within 16 yards of him.
    Etherealness: The ghost dwells on the Ethereal Plane, where he is invisible and insubstantial to material beings, but visible and tangible to other ethereal beings. He can perceive the tangible world with a -4 penalty to spot objects at any range, and -8 to resolve fine details, but not speak normally to those within it, and he cannot pick up normal objects or affect them in any way.
    The ghost can materialize on a Material Plane as an insubstantial being, transporting himself through the planar boundaries as if using Jumper (p. B64). Physical and energy attacks cannot harm the materialized ghost, but he is still vulnerable to psionic and (nonmaterial) magical attacks. Likewise, his physical and energy attacks cannot affect physical opponents. The ghost’s psi abilities and magic spells can affect the physical world at no penalty. While materialized, the ghost can carry gear up to his Heavy Encumbrance.
    Rejuvenation: The ghost is very hard to destroy. Injury affects him normally, but he needs never make a HT roll to stay alive. One the ghost reaches -10xHP, he dissipates, but continues to heal normally. Once he is at full HP, his fully intact body will coalesce in a location of the GM’s choosing and returns to its old haunts. The only way to get rid of a ghost for sure is to determine the reason for its existence and set right whatever prevents it from resting in peace. The exact means varies with each spirit and may require a good deal of research.

The only way to get rid of a ghost for sure is to determine the reason for its existence and set right whatever prevents it from resting in peace. The exact means varies with each spirit and may require a good deal of research.
    Malevolence (12): The ghost can possess material creatures. The ethereal body merges with and occupies the body of the ghost’s host. It remains insubstantial during the possession, traveling inside the host but otherwise inaccessible to him and effectively mindless. It can be injured as detailed under Parasitic, but only by attacks that affect insubstantial things. A genuine exorcist can cast the ghost out by winning a Quick Contest of his exorcism ability vs. the ghost’s Will.
    The ghost cannot return to a body he has been cast out of for at least 24 hours. He may choose to release his host at any time. If he is exorcised or leaves voluntarily, the host recovers after 1d seconds of mental stun.
    To possess a new host, the ghost must concentrate for one second and physically touch him. Attempts to possess his own Puppet (p. B78) succeed automatically. In all other cases, roll a Quick Contest: the ghost’s IQ vs. the subject’s Will. The victim resists at +5 if he is in combat with the ghost or otherwise wary of him. If the ghost loses or ties, he is mentally stunned for 1d seconds. In addition, he may never attempt to possess that subject again – he is “immune” to the ghost. If the ghost wins, he takes over the victim’s body, completely suppressing his personality. The previous host regains control of his body (if sentient) after 1d seconds of mental stun, and “comes to” with no memory of the possession.
    The ghost gain the new host’s ST, DX, and HT (and secondary characteristics calculated from these scores), as well as his physical advantages and disadvantages. The ghost keeps his own IQ, Perception, and Will, and all of his mental traits. His social traits may apply, depending on the laws and values of his society. Skills are a special case. The ghost’s IQ-, Perception-, and Will-based skills are unchanged. Other skills remain at the same relative skill level. For instance, if the ghost have Acrobatics at DX+3, then he would have Acrobatics-12 in a DX 9 body and Acrobatics-14 in a DX 11 body.
    If the ghost occupies a sentient host, he has sufficient access to his memories for the first few hours of the takeover to learn his name and daily routine, but not enough to learn IQ-based skills. To recall a specific fact from the host’s memories, the ghost must roll vs. IQ, at -1 per hour since the takeover. Only one attempt is allowed for any given memory!
    Energy Drain: Souldrinker 1 (13).

Typical Stats

ST:	35 (KYOS: 23)	HP:	35	Speed:	6.25
DX:	10	Will:	15	Move:	7 air
IQ:	14	Per:	16
HT:	15	FP:	20	SM:	+4
Dodge:	9	Parry:	11 (unarmed)	DR:	-

    Bite (16): thrust 4d+2 impaling, Reach C-1. Can only be used against insubstantial beings.
    Front Claw (16): thrust 4d+2 cutting or impaling, Reach C-3. Can only be used against insubstantial beings.
    Hind Claw (14): thrust 5d-1 cutting or impaling, Reach C-3. Can only be used against insubstantial beings.
    Wing (16): thrust 5d-1 crushing, Reach C-5, can only attack front and side hexes. Can only be used against insubstantial beings.
    Tail (14): thrust 5d-1 crushing, Reach C-5. Can only be used against insubstantial beings.
    Breathe Gray Mist (16): The dragon breathes out a blast of gray mist that ages the victims for thrust 4d-1 years (treat this as large-area injury for the purpose of DR). This is a cone attack that uses rules from Area and Spreading Attacks (pp. B413-414). The cone is 1-yard wide and has a length of 7 yards (ST/5). Each use costs 2 FP. It is possible to make the cone wider by using the rules from Cones of Power (GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Monsters 4: Dragons, p. 10).
    Horrific Appearance: Anyone who sees the dragon’s horrific appearance must make a Fright Check at -3. If a victim succeeds at his Fright Check, he will be unaffected by the dragon’s Horrific Appearance for one hour.
    Etherealness: The ghost dwells on the Ethereal Plane, where he is invisible and insubstantial to material beings, but visible and tangible to other ethereal beings. He can perceive the tangible world with a -4 penalty to spot objects at any range, and -8 to resolve fine details, but not speak normally to those within it, and he cannot pick up normal objects or affect them in any way.
    The ghost can materialize on a Material Plane as an insubstantial being, transporting himself through the planar boundaries as if using Jumper (p. B64). Physical and energy attacks cannot harm the materialized ghost, but he is still vulnerable to psionic and (nonmaterial) magical attacks. Likewise, his physical and energy attacks cannot affect physical opponents. The ghost’s psi abilities and magic spells can affect the physical world at no penalty. While materialized, the ghost can carry gear up to his Heavy Encumbrance.
    Rejuvenation: The ghost is very hard to destroy. Injury affects him normally, but he needs never make a HT roll to stay alive. One the ghost reaches -10xHP, he dissipates, but continues to heal normally. Once he is at full HP, his fully intact body will coalesce in a location of the GM’s choosing and returns to its old haunts. The only way to get rid of a ghost for sure is to determine the reason for its existence and set right whatever prevents it from resting in peace. The exact means varies with each spirit and may require a good deal of research.
