Talk:Hive (5e Creature)

Note that, in 5e ability scores cannot exceed 30. SirSprinkles (talk) 20:07, 3 July 2017 (MDT)

• Could I use an ability score that's greater than 30 and calculate my own modifiers? (e.g. 34 (+12))? --Calibri (talk) 15:32, 5 July 2017 (MDT)

I wouldn't. 30 is a hard cap in 5e. The game isn't balanced to consider ability scores above 30. For example, the tarrasque has 30 Strength and Constitution. SirSprinkles (talk) 18:28, 6 July 2017 (MDT)

Hit points should always be referred to as such, and not as "HP". Consider reading the 5e Creature Design Guide. SirSprinkles (talk) 18:26, 6 July 2017 (MDT)

What happens when a creature is swayed? Is it charmed? SirSprinkles (talk) 03:01, 28 April 2018 (MDT)

No. When a creature is swayed in this case, it basically becomes a part of Hive. Just like the name, the creatures become a hive, a collective villain. With charmed, it seemed too magical for these purposes, along with the fact that the two effects just feel different. Finally, there are spells and other things designed to negate being charmed, which I did not want to affect being swayed.
