| glowworm01-20-05, 12:38 PM | I am trying to find a few monsters with the extrodinary abilitly to move about. as far as something like teleport, plane shift, dimension door, or the like. any help would be great thanks. :D |
| Ogre4Hire01-20-05, 01:04 PM | Nope, all of those abilities listed are magical in nature, and therefore must be either Spells, Spell Like Abilities, or Supernatural Abilities. Extrodinary abilities are non-magical, and you just can't teleport without magic (or psionics). |
| Wickerbull01-20-05, 09:49 PM | Yeah, you won't find any creature with dimension door as an extraordinary ability. If you want creatures that can "move around", look for anything with "ethereal" before it's name. Ethereal Marauder, Ethereal Filcher, Ethereal Dopplerganger, and the list goes on. But if you want dimension door, than go with blink dog. |
| Obscure One01-20-05, 11:07 PM | I can't quite remeber the name of it, but there is a mirror like creature that can do something called Mirror Jump which is a spell-like ability similar to Shadow Jump (though I don't know of any extraodinary abilities that allow any type of spell-like movement). It works by useing one mirror as an entry point and another as an exit as long as the mirror is within a one mile radius and the creature has a clear image of the mirror in it's mind. There are some catches, such as if the mirror isn't where they visualize it they end up at any random mirror at the DM's discretion. The mirror itself doesn't necessarilly have to be a mirror, it could be any smooth, highly reflective surface, so in essence one could Mirror Jump in or out of a well buffed and polished sword or a crystal clear pool of undisturbed water. |
| legolizard01-21-05, 02:10 AM | Githyanki, dimension door 3/day at lv. 5 and planeshift once a day at 9th lv.. |
| Shemeska the Marauder01-21-05, 02:42 AM | Githyanki, dimension door 3/day at lv. 5 and planeshift once a day at 9th lv.. They don't have them as extraordinary though. |
| HomebrewedMonster01-21-05, 04:54 AM | Earth Elementals and Xorns can move about through Earth Glide, moving through any earth as though it were normal land. |
| Sarig the Genie01-21-05, 02:09 PM | No one mentioned Blink Dogs? (: But they're so cute and...where did it go? |
| Bonzai01-21-05, 05:58 PM | But Blink Dogs ability is Supernatural. Hehe, I once did a simular search once I bought Libris Mortis and saw the Awaken Undead spell. While it lets you get an awakened rust monster, troll, etc.. with their extrordinary abilities in tact, the majority of the flyers/teleportors do so through supernatural means. I could awaken a dragon skeleton, and it would have all of the abilities it had in life, except for flight and it's breath weapon which are supernatural. Lol, it's a shame that you can't animate dead something without a skeleton. Awakened Black pudding zombies would rock. :P |
| Wickerbull01-21-05, 11:04 PM | Ahh, undead Jell-o. Hey! What if an undead gelatinous cube could engulf humanoids and spit them out as zombies? Oooohhh....... BTW, I did say blink dogs. They're actually the only things I new off the top of my head with dimension door. |
| Bonzai01-22-05, 12:45 AM | Dm: "You know if you animate that pudding you will be over the maximum hd that you can control with Animate Dead right"? Me: "What?!? There is always room for Jell-o"! |
