Monsters: Loumara II

Monsters: Loumara II

There's two things that I hate statting up in GURPS - shapeshifters and ghosts. Loumara, fortunately, are only the latter, because otherwise I'd go insane. There's only two loumara demons in the Fiendish Codex I, where they were introduced, but there was also two additional ones in various issues of the Dragon Magazine let's convert the latter two. Caligrostos are very cool, but their abilities are such a pain to stat up!

Monsters: Obyriths II

Monsters: Obyriths II

More obyriths! And that's the last of them, unless there's some new ones in 4e or 5e.

Monsters: Fiendish Symbionts

Monsters: Fiendish Symbionts

Fiend Folio introduces two types of symbionts - fiendish and cerebral. A certain Dragon Magazine issue also has illithid symbionts that I've already converted, and a Dungeon Magazine issue has an additional fiendish symbiont. The entire concept of symbionts was expanded in an Eberron sourcebook, probably Magic of Eberron.

Even though I'm statting them up as creatures, they probably make more sense as gear or abilities bought with points. So, if you're playing a host of a symbiont, buy one as an Ally and spend points on the advantages and/or disadvantages the symbiont grants you.

Why is ghostly visage classified as a fiendish symbiont when it's an unrelated undead creature? No idea.

What rules I would like to try out

What rules I would like to try out

As you probably know, GURPS has a vast number of various optional rules and sub-systems. Some of them seem interesting or even fascinating, but you might not ever see them in play. Maybe that's because they would slow down the game too much, or you can't be bothered to memorize an entire new ruleset, or maybe because you like these rules but your players do not.

Monsters: Devils II

Monsters: Devils II

While I converted many demons, I haven't completely forgotten about their lawful counterparts. Let's convert two devils from the Fiendish Condex II - the legion devil and the pain devil. Why these two? Because both of them do not have any art in the book.

Monsters: Archons III

Monsters: Archons III

And here we have two more archons from the Book of Exalted Deeds.

Sorcery Spells Overview: Communication and Empathy

Sorcery Spells Overview: Communication and Empathy

Let's go over the Communication and Empathy college spells. I remember when I first read GURPS Magic, I wondered why is this college split from Mind Control. Nowadays I understand that Mind Control is, perhaps, one of the strongest colleges even without Communication and Empathy, and find the split reasonable. One of my favorite colleges.
