SRD Talk:Templates

bug?

I don't know if something has gone wrong, but it says it can be edited dispite the sign at the bottom saying it's locked. --Ping pong ball +3 14:11, 31 July 2007 (MDT)

It has probably been opened by an admin and they forgot to lock it. I'll message Green Dragon to fix it. --Aarnott 14:22, 31 July 2007 (MDT)

Mkill opened it (I do not know why) and forgot to close it. It is now fixed and thanks for bringing this to my attention. --Green Dragon 14:57, 31 July 2007 (MDT)

Looks like I created the page and then I tried to protect it and mistook on the protection function. Sorry. --Mkill 07:50, 1 August 2007 (MDT)

It's all good, no worries :). --Green Dragon 09:18, 1 August 2007 (MDT)

Missing templates

Axiomatic, Anarchic, half fire element, half water element, half earth element, half air element, air element, earth element, water element, and fire element are all missing. Should they be added? Or is it that if every new SRD creature was added, this place would be swamped? --Cthulhu..... 08:25, 18 April 2008 (MDT)

It's not that the site would be swamped (the more material we have, the better), it's that those templates are from the Manual of the Planes, not the SRD. The SRD is not any and all published WotC material, it is a specific collection of freely available material, drawn from the Dungeon Master's Guide, the Player's Handbook, the Monster Manual, the Expanded Psionics Handbook, the Epic Level Handbook, Deities and Demigods, and possibly some others. Even from those, there are omissions (such as Illithids, Beholders, and the Greyhawk deities). We have on this site all of the published WotC material that we legally can, other than Unearthed Arcana (which we are currently working on adding). So to answer your question, they should not be added, or else we'd be in legal trouble. --Daniel Draco 18:59, 18 April 2008 (MDT)

Non-SRD

A homebrew template "Tiberian" has made it to the SRD list accidentally. 173.245.53.157 04:33, 4 April 2012 (MDT)

Create Undead templates?

SRD:Create Undead Has Ghoul, Ghast, Mummy and Mohrg - but, there is no such templates. In other words - can that be casted on something other than standard Medium Humanoid? 95.71.88.39 13:12, 1 October 2024 (MDT)

SRD:Create Greater Undead has Shadow, Wraith, Spectre, Devourer. Again, no such templates. Can those be casted on something other than standard Medium Humanoid? 95.71.88.39 13:22, 1 October 2024 (MDT)

The Libris Mortis says in no ambiguous terms that ghouls, ghasts, mummies, and mohrgs are all formerly living humanoids. That's not the same thing as saying you can't cast create undead or create greater undead on a non-humanoid corpse, but still the logic is very shaky and most DMs probably wouldn't allow it. 2601:285:4100:14B0:EA99:499A:8CEE:314B 22:50, 1 October 2024 (MDT)
