12-19-06, 03:43 PM One of my players was thinking about playing a druid in an upcoming game, however they wanted to have a dire toad companion, so i said i would try to create one for them. i compared the toad and the rat, then looked off the dire rat entry (which to me had some numbers off). anyways anyone think this might be a good animal companion for a first level? it might be allitle to strong becuse of its 10 foot reach with its tongue lash (which i made up concedering toads in the monster manual dont even have an attack...). and i gave it posionous skin of an dart frog in real life to be a replacement for the dire rats deisease.

12-19-06, 04:21 PM Did they already print a Dire Toad, i can't remember.

Maybe give it some sort of tongue attack? Or would that make it a little to magical beast-ish?

We should use this thread to stat out all sorts of dire animals.
