[LonePaladin]

Just a suggestion here...

Could the monsters be listed in full stat-block format? That way, there's no question as to what they can/can't do.

Granted, that pretty much volunteers me to do the typing, but heck -- I made my character in stat-block format (without a character sheet, natch -- just the Phoob*). I think I can handle posting monsters for everyone's benefit, and it would get more posts listed for me. Need those promotions; don't want to go back to being a skeleton.

Anyway, just to prove the point, how about this?
