In particular, I've tried to see what an Aarakocra (from Monsters of Faerun) would look like in 3.5 (ok, it's first in the alphabet, so it'll be a while before I get to Tyrantfog Zombie!). As far as I can tell, pretty much everything stays the same as the entry in Monsters of Faerun except: Special Qualities: gains Darkvision 60 ft. (as a Monstrous Humanoid) Skills: should now have 8 points to spend on skills... I suggested Knowledge (nature) +2, Listen +3, Spot +3. Level Adjustment: I guessed at +1 (since it can fly). What do people think... is this about right for a first attempt? Cheers, Martyn

martyn_quick 10-13-03, 12:48 PM	Thanks very much... hadn't spotted that reference... it would also have pointed out to me the racial bonuses they have on four skills, so the correct skills should be: Craft (any one) +4, Knowledge +4, Listen +4, Spot +4. (Basically +2 racial bonus and 2 ranks spent on each). Martyn
