Sliver doesn't rhyme well.

So here is what I got after digging through the DCC monsters. Started with a Hobgoblin, added a dash of Elder Brain, and tweaked a bit.

Sliver: Init +3; Atk Talon +2 melee (1d8+2); AC 12; HD 1d10; MV 30’; Act 1d20; SP blindsense (perfect perception of all things, including invisible targets, within 250’); SV Fort +2, Ref +4, Will +6; AL C

Of course it didn’t feel right so I went looking for a method to making DCC creatures. I found a few different ways to do it, but everything boils down to eyeballing it. A friend loaned me a copy of Critters, Creatures, andDenizens by Cognition Press. And while not very straight forward, I was able to get around a bit and get a usable bit of information out of it. So here is the mark two sliver:

Sliver: Init +4; Atk Talon +3 melee (1d10+1); AC 14; HD 3d10; MV 40’; Act 1d20; SP blindsense (perfect perception of all things within 120’); SV For +2, Ref +4, Will +2

And the juvenile (token analogue) and alpha (legendary analogue):

Sliver Juvenile: Init +2; Atk Talon +1 melee (1d8); AC 12; HD 1d10; MV 30’; Act 1d16; SP blindsense (perfect perception of all things within 120’); SV For +1, Ref +4, Will +1

Sliver Alpha: Init +8; Atk Talon +7 melee (1d12+3) AC 18; HD 5d10; MV50ft’; Act 1d24; SP blindsense (perfect perception of all things within 120’); SV For +3, Ref +6; Will +6

Normal ones will be found anywhere, either singly or a small group. Juveniles will be found in and around a nest with an Alpha, and depending on the size and age of the nest, from a dozen to several dozen. Alphas will be found near a nest most of the time, with or without a few normal slivers.

I think this does well enough. Individually, a party should be able to kill all three with ease, but they are a strength in numbers kinda of creature. I’ll continue to tweak the abilities chart and see how it looks. I’m thinking of putting a one or two racial rules with them, but might leave them as a personal rule. Anyway, if anyone ends up using these, please let me know how they do.
