Introduction These rules will help you convert monsters found in dozens of AD&D (Advanced Dungeons & Dragons) books to Mastercraft format. CONVERSION THREAT LEVEL The NPC’s Conversion Threat Level is equal to its AD&D Hit Dice. You’ll use this value when converting other stats.

Example: A red chaos toad has 7 Hit Dice, so its Conversion Threat Level is also 7. STAT LIMITS No stat may exceed the minimum or maximum listed in the standard NPC creation rules. Conversion rules are often provided in case of a surplus, but in all other cases an excess is ignored.

Step 1: Size and Type The NPC’s Size changes according to the NPC’s height or length, whichever is greater (see Table 1 below). It defines the NPC’s maximum footprint (see Fantasy Craft page 217). Fantasy Craft characters aren’t always perfectly square, so you may want to adjust the footprint to a more logical shape.

Example: A red chaos toad is 8 ft. tall, which defines it as Large in Fantasy Craft. Its Space is translated to a footprint of 2 wide Ă— 2 long (an arbitrary but plausible choice). An NPCs Type sets their Competence grade as shown on Table 2: Type Conversion. When a character has 2 or more Types, apply the highest Competence generated by any of them.

Example: A red chaos toad is a native of Limbo, an Outer Plane. This translates to Competence III and the Outsider Type in Fantasy Craft.

Step 2: Health The NPC’s Type, Hit Dice, and Size determine its Fantasy Craft Health grade and possibly grant the tough quality, as shown on Table 2: Type Conversion (see below). If the NPC lists only hit points (hp), divide that number by 4.5 (round down, minimum 1) to determine Hit Dice.

Example: A red chaos toad is an Outsider, has 7 Hit Dice, and has a Size of Large. The Type sets the Health grade to III and the Size converts to either a grade of Health or tough I. Its 7 Hit Dice do not affect the Health grade. The GM decides to apply 1 grade to Health, so the red chaos toad ends up with Health IV.

If ability scores are unavailable, determine them the following way: The Strength score can be determined by looking at the bonus damage (or THAC0 modifier) next to the NPC’s attacks. This bonus damage is the NPC’s Damage Adjustment (see Table 3: Ability Conversion above). After you determine Damage Adjustment (or THAC0’s Hit Probability), you can easily get the Fantasy Craft attribute value. Otherwise increase it by 2 above 10 for each NPC’s Size category above Medium. The Dexterity score can be determined by taking into account the creature’s Size, illustration (if any), description, movement speed, and Armor Class (AC). If the creature seems quick and agile, determine its Dexterity score by looking at its Defensive Adjustment (see Table 3: Ability Conversion above). Remember to remove any Size, gear and natural armor bonuses before doing that. If the illustration or description mentions scales, tough hide or other natural protection, safely assume that the creature’s good defenses do not come from its high Dexterity score but it’s natural armor (see Armor Class on

page 11). The Constitution score can be determined by increasing it by 2 for each Size category above Medium or by dividing the NPC’s bonus hit points by its Hit Dice (round down, minimum 1) to find out its Hit Point Adjustment (see Table 3: Ability Conversion above). The Intelligence score is generally noted in all entries. Take the highest possible value. If only the descriptive listing is available, refer to Table 3.1: AD&D 1st Edition Intelligence Conversion below. Finally, if no listing’s available at all, refer to creature’s description to determine its Intelligence score.

Wisdom and Charisma scores are similar to the creature’s Intelligence score. If the listing’s unavailable, refer to creature’s description.

Example: A red chaos toad has the following AD&D scores: Intelligence 5 – 7, Armor Class 4, Hit Dice 7 + 3, Morale 8 – 10. These translate to Str 10, Dex 10, Con 12, Int 6, Wis 10, Cha 10 in Fantasy Craft. If the NPC has any AD&D natural attacks, compare the maximum damage of each, sans Strength modifier, with the same attack’s maximum damage in Fantasy Craft at Grades I, III, and V (again, without Strength). Apply the grade that’s closest without going over. If the maximum AD&D damage is 50% or more of the way toward the next Fantasy Craft grade, raise the grade by 1 more (increasing the attack’s threat range by 1). Example: The red chaos toad has an AD&D Bite inflicting 2d8 damage (a max. of 16). At the creature’s Size (Large), the closest Fantasy Craft Bite that doesn’t exceed this is Grade I (dmg 1d10; threat 18–20). The maximum AD&D damage is more than 50% of the way toward the maximum Bite II damage, though, so the red chaos toad gains Bite II (dmg 1d10; threat range 17–20). Also, the red chaos toad has two AD&D Claws inflicting 1d4 damage each. Again, at the creature’s Size, the claw damage translates closest to Grade I (dmg 1d8; threat 20). Apply the NPC’s Strength modifier to the resulting Fantasy Craft damage. Finally, apply any natural attack qualities needed to simulate AD&D effects.

Example: The red chaos toad’s Claw is linked to its AD&D egg-pellet special attack, which is easily handled in Fantasy Craft with the infectious conversion quality. This attack will be handled in the following steps.

6


Step 4: Other Attacks and Qualities This step converts AD&D Special Attacks, Special Defenses, and Magic Resistance. It is suggested to be as familiar with NPC creation rules as possible because many of the options operate with slight differences. Identify what all the original attacks and abilities do. Once you have done this, consult Table 6.12: Other Attack and Quality Conversions (see Fantasy Craft page 298) and look for similar abilities. If that doesn’t quite do it, look through first three Fantasy Craft chapters to see if any of the class abilities, feats or spells will work. In that case, you should give the NPC the class ability, feat or natural spell qualities. Only those class abilities on Table 6.3: NPC Class Abilities (see Fantasy Craft page 232) are available. Finally, if you haven’t found a good option, you will need to build your own using the rules for Extraordinary Attacks (see Fantasy Craft page 236). Magic Resistance is converted by dividing the given number by 15 (round down, minimum 1). The result is the NPC’s spell defense grade. A Low morale score (7 or lower) grants the meek quality, a high morale score (15-18) grants the fearless I quality and finally, the highest morale score (19-20) grants the fearless II quality. You do not need to convert all attacks and qualities. Focus on the most useful options which won’t complicate the NPC and increase its XP without a good reason. For example, you shouldn’t give the NPC more than 4

natural spells. Example: The red chaos toad also has stun, which translates to a stunning croak extraordinary attack. It also has egg-pellet, which translates to an infectious conversion quality. Finally, it has Magic Resistance 30% which becomes spell defense II.

Step 5: Skills AD&D NPCs rarely possess nonweapon proficiencies but in case they do, they can be easily translated into Fantasy Craft skills and sometimes to other qualities. If the NPC has 4 or more proficiencies, convert up to 3 and increase its Competence grade by 1 per 2 proficiencies not converted. Each proficiency slot directly translates as a Signature Skill grade. If two or more proficiencies share the Signature Skill (see Table 4 below), add their grades together. If a Signature Skill grade does not exceed the NPC’s Competence, he probably doesn’t need that Signature Skill.

Step 6: Feats Read the NPC’s description. If you can identify any feat-like ability the NPC possesses, give it the appropriate feat.

Example: Per its AD&D description, a red chaos toad does not possess any feats.

Step 7: Gear and Treasure Gear translates directly; just go through Chapter 4 of Fantasy Craft to find the appropriate item(s). Convert the treasure using Table 5: Treasure Conversion (see below).

* Large treasures are noted with a multiplier such as x2; this means that you should multiply all rolls that many times (up to a maximum of 6).

Example: A red chaos toad’s AD&D treasure code is “K, Q” which translates to Fantasy Craft Treasure “1L”.

Step 8: Remaining Entries This step covers the rest of NPC’s abilities such as Defense and Class. Any entries not listed here are ignored.

Race and Class Fantasy Craft NPCs get abbreviated species templates which are provided on page 248. Some class abilities can be applied with a quality (see Fantasy Craft page 235). Use these options sparingly, applying only the ones that are the most vital, or iconic to making the NPC memorable in your game.

Armor Class If the AC value is equal to or greater than 0, subtract that number from 10. If it is lower than 0 (a negative value), add it as a positive value to 10. Remove Armor Class bonuses from attributes, Size and gear. The NPC gains the lowest possible Defense grade that includes the result in the Conversion Threat Level column of Table 6.1 (minimum I) (see Fantasy Craft page 229). If the result is not included in any grade, they gain Defense X and monstrous defense (grade equal to 1/3 the surplus result, rounded down). If the AD&D armor

11


class bonus is +1 or higher, they also gain damage reduction (1/4 the armor bonus, rounded up, to a maximum of 10).

Example: The red chaos toad’s AC is 4 which yields a +6 bonus after the initial calculation. Taking into account gear (None), the Dexterity modifier (None), and the Size modifier (-1) we determine that its natural armor class bonus is +7. Scanning down the TL 7 column, +7 translates to Defense V. It also gains damage reduction 2.

Initiative The NPC’s Initiative grade is equal to its Defense grade (see above).

Example: The red chaos toad’s Defense grade is V, so its Initiative grade becomes V.

Speed/Mobility Determine whether the NPC is a Walker, Burrower, Flier, or Swimmer as shown on Fantasy Craft page 227. Multiply the movement by 2.5 feet and round up to nearest multiple of 10. AD&D maneuverability is ignored. If the creature has a Climb speed listed, add one or more grades of superior climber, depending on the speed value. Apply the banned action quality if the NPC can’t climb, jump, or swim. Older editions of AD&D used simplistic symbols to indentify other movement types. Here are their meanings with X representing the movement speed’s value.

Climbing in trees

Example: The red chaos toad can walk so it becomes a Walker with a Speed of 20 ft.

Base Attack Subtract the THAC0 value from 20. The NPC gains the lowest possible Attack grade that includes their attack bonus in the Conversion Threat Level column of Table 6.1 (see Fantasy Craft page 229). If the bonus is not included in any grade, he gains Attack X and monstrous attack (grade equal to 1/3 the surplus bonus, rounded down). If the NPC has 1 attack listed, decrease the Attack grade by 1 (down to a minimum of 1). For each 2 attacks above the first, increase the NPC’s attack grade by 1. Example: The red chaos toad’s attack bonus is +7, which translates to Attack V. It also has 3 attacks listed so that increases his Attack to VI.

12


Reach The NPC’s Reach is determined by its Size. Refer to Table 1: Size Conversion (see above) to find out the value. If any of the NPC’s AD&D attacks have additional reach, add the reach quality to the corresponding Fantasy Craft attacks.

Example: The red chaos toad’s Size is Large and it’s tall, which means it gets Reach 2.

Saves The NPC’s Resilience grade is equal to its Health grade (see above).

Example: The red chaos toad’s Health grade is IV, which translates to Resilience IV.

Alignment If the NPC’s Alignment is available in the current campaign, he gains the interests quality. Refer to Table 7: Alignment Conversion

Step 9: Final Tweaks (Optional) The conversion’s over but that doesn’t mean you can’t boost or lower stats add or remove qualities in order to create a really unique NPC.

Step 10: XP Value Just sum the XP values from all the Fantasy Craft options you’ve applied. If you’ve created new qualities for the NPC, simply add 1 to 5 XP for each, based on how useful they are. Here’s our red chaos toad! XP values follow each item with a cost in brackets.
