I'd like to have a way to decrease a monster's HD.

Sometimes you want a young monster that is not only smaller but also inherently weaker, with fewer HD.

I've looked through the options in the Adjustments tabs and found a way to decrease size beyond using the Young template, but nothing for racial HD.

Another idea would be to have the ability to stack the Young and Giant templates, so you can make monsters that are more than 1 size category larger or smaller. (I know for the giant monster I can just use the size category change in the Adjustments tab, but that doesn't seem to affect CR).

Are either of these possible?

Good timing, as I am currently reviewing the organization and overlap of the other adjustment table. I'll look into an adjustment to reduce racial HD.

I promise I'm not trying to step on your toes. I'll send you some of the new adjustments I'm making and you can tell me if there is overlap.

LOL I know your not Aaron. The HD one been on my list for awhile but its not super easy so been leaving it. So happy if you add it.

If you have others you plan to add send me an email. A) I may already have it done and you can just take it. B) I will know of what to "deprecate" once its added officially.

Thanks!

That's quite generous of you to offer. I'll look over what you have already available for adjustments and take inspiration from them, thanks!

Would it be possible to get something added that provides information on what equipment slots are currently unoccupied on the character?

I'll second Shadow's offer - I've added quite a few adjustments as my group have asked about them, and I'm happy for any to be nabbed.

That's beyond the scope of simple adjustments. I imagine it would be cool to have like a new tab with a body shape outline with lines to boxes with the name of the item filling each slot or hand. So, probably possible but a good bit of UI work and some background stuff to get information transmitted correctly. Might be a good contribution to the other requests thread.
