Talk:Gryip (3.5e NPC)

Standards and Balence

I had a similar problem with my Zatoichi (3.5e NPC) - using incorrect ability scores, items, etc... For the elite array of NPC you have to use the scores 15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8 and add 4 were you see fit - unless you don't want to be standard. His max score in Dex or Cha is 21 - but he has 16Dex and 24Cha. How does he get such high skill points if his Int is only 2? Also the NPC has no: flaws, traits, or unexplained or compensating features (i.e. if it were blind, it does not automaticly get a +10 on listen checks). I like the reverse order of your spells - good job. He has way to much equipment! --Franken Kesey 22:39, March 4, 2010 (UTC)

I already noted in invisible text that Gryip was using a 42 point buy starting at 6, but since it's invisible it's understandable that you didn't see it. Any bonuses not directly listed on this character sheet are granted by Red Fox racial features. Gryip has almost precisely 77000 gp of equipment, which is the suggested amount for a level 16 NPC (DMG p. 127).--Foxwarrior 23:46, March 4, 2010 (UTC)

I believe that using 28 (or maybe 32) point buy raises the CR by one, so I'd think that 42 point buy would raise it by another one... perhaps note that he's effectively a CR 18 creature? --Ghostwheel 00:09, March 5, 2010 (UTC)
