10-31-07, 04:07 PM It would have to be a really big cricket, as you have to stuff 50gp worth of bloodstone (or what ever the gem is) in it's eye socket...

Also considering a fly...Actually, I think the easiest way would be awaken vermin, although I cannot recall the sourcebook it is from at the moment.

EDIT: Whups, awaken vermin is actually a Master of Flies class feature. Sorry!It would have to be a really big cricket, as you have to stuff 50gp worth of bloodstone (or what ever the gem is) in it's eye socket...Shrink item, my friend. Since a cricket would have less than 1 HD (I hope?), it would only need 25 gp worth of onyx to pull off - rounding up as usual.

Why exactly is this on the Races board instead of Monster's Lair, or perhaps Magic and Spells?

11-01-07, 12:17 PM Undead water polo is kinda fun...but after a few minutes, the water gets really murky, what with all the rotting flesh and fetid fluids leaking out.

One of the old Dragon Magazines (:weep:) had an awaken ooze spell...if they have awaken ooze, I don't see why awaken vermin should be so hard to imagine. But, as someone else said, why is this here and not on the monster forum? Seems you might get better info there.
