i can send the data on both if needed

Lash,

I have seen them referenced in the books, if they're in Faiths & Pantheons or Dragons of Faerun I can get them added, but it will take time, the Deities datafile is still a long way from completion friend. I will get it out to you all as soon as mbran01 has all the data done.

Raven

mbran01,

A personal request, when you finish the deities, could you go through and disable the sources? I will reapply the sources once I get the data back.

Raven

They will make it into our to do list. We are trying to get faiths and pantheons knocked off the to do list first

Unfortunately this is a rather large set of data and will take a great deal of time and effort to get done. Though Ed Greenwood's epic world will be ours to play in.

I want to point out now that the races I have worked on are being leveled down to eliminate level adjustments completely. I am trying to get the races down to pathfinder's no level adjustment deal. So some things may be a little tweaked, but the races will all get done.

Tiamat is in faiths and pantheons so I will eventually get to her. Not sure where Bahamut is, but if he was converted to forgotten realms for 3rd edition he will eventually make it in as well.

Bahamut appears in these references!

Copied direct from wikipedia.

Dungeons & Dragons 3.0 edition (2000-2002)

Bahamut appears in a preview article for the third edition, in Dragon #272 (June 2000).[12] This information is later included in the Manual of the Planes (2001),[13]

Bahamut is further detailed as a deity in Defenders of the Faith (2000)[14] and Deities and Demigods (2002).[15]

Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 edition (2003-2007)

Bahamut's priesthood and his role as a draconic deity are further detailed for this edition in Draconomicon: The Book of Dragons (2003),[16]Complete Divine (2004),[17] and Races of the Dragon (2006)[18]

As of right now I am only worrying about getting the FR stuff. I thought he was mentioned in one of the FR books though.

I am not one to trust wikipedia though. College instructors always told us never to use that site for information.

mbran01 · May 31st, 2012, 08:37 AM

Yeah, I am just focusing on the fr books. If he is in there we will find him. If not, maybe after we are done withe the rest of the data we can add him.

@RavenX: Have you looked at drow of the underdark and savage species. I believe that they had rules for modifying races so that there was no level adjustment. Specifically, I think they had drow as a playable race.

I don't personally own all the books or pdfs of the edition. I have a small amount to work with. I do have the Underdark book though. The rules in the Advanced Race Guide allow you to create races, its all point based, so I will be using that as my gauge for redesigning races. Since this is a Pathfinder conversion I want to stick as close to the rules of Pathfinder as we can. The create your own race chapter was a free "preview" but I am holding out for the hardback of the book to be released this coming month before jumping into finalized conversions.

I am cutting monster "levels" and hit dice out though. That is a good chunk of the level adjustment issue... Some races might get some of their +8 to this, +10 to that snipped down to more modest bonuses of +2 to banish the level adjustments before its all done though.

I know he is in the 4th edition version of the game. They released some data for him specifically for FR, I will have to dig around a bit.
