They have several in-game names, including beastlings and cauldron spawn. I even have the threat of transformation into beastlings as a game hazard too. They are not so tied to individual animals as yours are, nor have I spelled out the gender consequences so clearly (I like that though; nice touch).<br /><br />One question: why is the creation spell level so high? I like to have mid level casters creating beastlings as potential threats too, though I suppose demonic patrons could always supply cultists or sorcerers with scrolls or whatever.Necropraxishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12716340801054739658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831219200072513986.post-36350809618791100112012-07-30T06:56:07.714-04:002012-07-30T06:56:07.714-04:00Cool.

Because of mixed HD groups? <br />Just an ideaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
