There are a number of monsters in this book that do not possess racial Hit Dice. Monsters are not designed with the rules for players in mind, and as such can be very unbalancing if not handled carefully. Using one of the monsters presented in this book as a character can be very rewarding, but weighing such a character against others is challenging. I will add that the Beholder Mage class is not going to be allowed so that cheese is off the table.

Based on the Pathfinder rules this would be a level 13 character.ĭoes anyone think that a Beholder as a level 13 character is balanced at all or would this fall under the “Some creatures are simply not suitable for play as PCs” clause in the rules? If level 13 is too low but you think a beholder could make a suitable PC, what level do you think would be appropriate? Then I realized that a Beholder is only a CR13.

All was going good when someone asked to play as a beholder.įirst I dug through the 3 Bestiaries for like 30 minutes before remembering that the Beholder is WoTC property and wasn’t reprinted so I pulled out the Monster Manual and got to converting it over. I am planning on following the standard PF rule of using CR as character level (the whole Monsters as PCs rule is spoilered below) and creating monster “classes” from level 1 to their CR level so we can all start at the same level, much like was done in Savage Species. In an upcoming PF game my group is planning on selecting monsters instead of standard PC races.
