02-04-06, 10:30 AM Hi, I have a psionic character in my current campaign that wants to take the form of a fly with her metamorphosis power.

I have no access to MM at work, only the SRD.

Fly (Fine vermin)
Str 1
Dex 17+
Con 10

low-light vision or darkvision 60ft ?

fly speed ?

fly manueverability ? I would say Average.

Racial skill bonus, climb + 16 (can always take 10) ? A fly can walk on ceiling..

Good maneuverability. Perfect maneuverability, as I have figured it, only occurs when a creature can fly with only their thoughts, such as with fly spells or Air Elementals. Good and below implies the use of motor functions (flapping of wings, propeller spinning, etc).

02-04-06, 02:32 PM I'd say their fly speed would be at least as fast as a humans land speed (things move fast enough to avoid a swatter most of the time) and they (like Hummingbirds) should have Perfect maneuverability as they can hover and fly backwards. Evasion and Uncanny Dodge would be definates, they would probably also have the Improved Initiative and Alertness feats.
