Need help with custom monster

[jkthomsen9]

I am trying to make a hero lab portfolio for an encounter in realm works. Because of this it is not feasible to have a custom user race using the editor. I tried using the race builder but Ooze is not an option. Dose anyone know how I can create this in Hero Lab without using the editor?

Bilge Slime CR 6
XP 2,400
N Huge aquatic ooze
Init -1; Senses Perception –5

DEFENSE
AC 7, touch 7, flat-footed 7 (-1 Dex, –2 size)
hp 85 (9d8+45)
Fort +9, Ref +2, Will -2
Immune ooze traits; Resist fire 10

OFFENSE
Speed 20 ft., Swim 20 ft.
Melee slam +14/+9 (1d8+8 plus disease)
Space 10 ft.; Reach 10 ft.
Special Attacks engulf (DC 22, 1d8+8 bludgeoning plus disease)
During Combat: The ooze waits in the back of the bilges using
its Freeze ability and engulfs any who disturb its domain.The
ooze fights until destroyed.

STATISTICS
Str 26, Dex 8, Con 22, Int —, Wis 1, Cha 1
Base Atk +6; CMB +16; CMD 25 (can’t be tripped)
SQ freeze, amphibious
ECOLOGY
Environment stagnant water
Organization single or infestation (2–5)
Treasure incidental

SPECIAL ABILITIES
Disease (Ex) Fungal rot: Slam—contact; save Fortitude DC 20;
onset 1 day; frequency 1/day; effect 1d2 Str damage and 1 Con
damage and fatigue; cure 1 save. Any creature that touches a
slime mold with an unarmed strike or a natural attack is also
exposed to this foul disease. The save DC is Constitution-based.

Freeze (Ex) The creature can hold itself so still it appears to be
an inanimate object of the appropriate shape (a statue, patch of
fungus, and so on). The creature can take 20 on its Stealth check
to hide in plain sight as this kind of inanimate object.

Engulf (Ex) The creature can engulf creatures in its path as
part of a standard action. It cannot make other attacks during
a round in which it engulfs. The creature merely has to move
over its opponents, affecting as many as it can cover. Targeted
creatures can make attacks of opportunity against the creature,
but if they do so, they are not entitled to a saving throw against
the engulf attack. Those who do not attempt attacks of opportunity
can attempt a Reflex save to avoid being engulfed—on a
success, they are pushed back or aside (target’s choice) as the
creature moves forward. Engulfed opponents gain the pinned
condition, are in danger of suffocating, are trapped within the
creature’s body until they are no longer pinned, and may be subject
to other special attacks from the creature. The save DC is
Strength-based.

Well, I am not sure exactly what you are asking. But I think you wanted someone to make this for you.

Anyways, the Custom Race Creator tool from the ARG, isnt for monsters. I dont know anything about realm works but. I think I have created the monster you wanted fairly well.

There are three small errors, but I am tired and cant do much more tonight. First the starting HP isnt correct, second the weapon doesnt properly say it has a disease and third I am not entirely sure the DC's are being calculated correctly.

Thank you TobyFox2002. I can not use a user file as there are too many users. Many do not know how or want to have user files added to there copy of hero lab. I am looking for a way to create this without using the editor. There is a good chance that it is not able to be done.

The only way I can see is maybe customizing another ooze from the bestiary, but i have not found one that did not have ability's I did not want. I have found ways to add ability's, but not take them away.

Well, I could recompile it as a *.hl file. Then it wont be difficult at all to add to their hero labs. just a matter of importing it from the main screen. But that doesnt help for people who just dont want to add extra stuff.

I cant say I understand not wanting to, that kinda defeats the whole purpose of having a program like this. But to each their own I guess.

I'm sorry I couldnt be more help.

Pretty much agree with what TobyFox2002 said. If they won't even load a .hl file then pretty much they are left out. You can't make custom monsters without the Editor and the editor requires the file be saved in a .user file.

Otherwise you are only left with the "adjustments" you can make on the Adjust tab. Or make the creature "NPC" and Click "Customize" and that opens up a HUGE list of things you can modify on the creature.
