Leucrotta speak Common.

Cleaving Sunder (Ex). If a leucrotta destroys a weapon or shield with a sunder attempt, it may immediately get an additional attack on that opponent using the same Base Attack Bonus.

Kick on the Run (Ex). The leucrotta can make a kick attack in melee and withdraw (or even Run away at 5 times its normal speed) in the same round.

Material Resonance (Ex). The bony plates in the leucrotta's mouth can be used to bypass damage reduction as if they are adamantite, cold iron, magic, or silver.

Mimickry (Ex). The leucrotta can imitate any voice or sound it has heard.

Rend Armor (Ex). The leucrotta can use the Sunder manuver to damage and destroy the armor of its opponents. For every 5 points of damage the leucrotta causes to the armor, its armor bonus is reduced by 1, to a minimum of 0 when the armor is effectively destroyed.

03-30-05, 09:44 PM it is in Monsters of Fearun... and a web enhancement for the Player's Guide to Faerun supposadly updated the monsters in MoF to 3.5

your version is a bit morepowerful then any previous editions version (Leucrottas were 6HD creatures in 1e, 2e, and 3.0e... I do not know why you arbitarly added 4 HD...)

other then that it looks good (with out doing a bunch of math)

03-30-05, 09:56 PM I just wanted it to have Cleave and Sunder and Run, but I hate giving random bonus feats. So it had to have at least 9 HD, and 10 is a nice round number. Also, if I use it, it'll be against some level 12s, so I didn't want the CR to be so low that they don't earn any XP.

Is CR 6 about right for this thing?

I guess I could drop Run and bring it down to 6HD...or use the MoF version.

actually I would probably put your creation around CR 7-8 before playtesting refinement.
