Lord High Munchkin Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Apart from 'Gateway Bestiary', are there any statistics for hippos? If there are, could some kind person point me towards them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Scott Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 You might try in CoC's Secrets of Kenya. I don't have the book but I do know that it has ostrich stats. Out of interest, why not the Bestiary version? Quote ----- Search the Glorantha Resource Site: https://wellofdaliath.chaosium.com.

tedopon Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Malleus Monstrorum has a hippo. Quote 121/420 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g33k Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Given that the hippo is actually the apex critter in most of its range, I'd say the stats are officially "whatever the hippo wants them to be." Quote C'es ne pas un .sig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord High Munchkin Posted January 21, 2017 Author Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) Thanks all! I shall return to my 'Gateway Bestiary' then. Edited January 21, 2017 by Lord High Munchkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atgxtg Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 If you want some unofficial stats I could update the RQ2 Gateway Bestiary Hippo stats to RQ3/BRP standards. It's mostly adjusting SIZ, STR, and CON to fit the new scale, giving the Hippo a fixed INT, and then working out the derived stats based on the new attribute scores. 1 Quote Chaos stalks my world, but she's a big girl and can take of herself.

That would be kind - I have 'Gateway Bestiary' with me somewhere, but later versions would be handy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atgxtg Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Here are some RQ3 Hippo stats. Sorry about the formatting. Let me know if there are any problems. Personally I hate the wide swing on STR and SIZ (6D6) but kept them to keep the stats consistent with Elephants (as they were in Gateway Beastiary). Hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius) STR 6D6+18 (39) CON 3D6+13 (23-24) SIZ 6D6+26 (47) INT 6 POW 3D6 (10-11) DEX 3D6 (10-11) Move 3 Hit Points 35 Fatigue 63 Damage Bonus: +4D6 Females tend to be smaller (take 3 points off of STR and SIZ) Hit Location D20 Points RH Leg 01-02 6/12 LH Leg 03-04 6/12 Hind Q 05-08 6/18 Fore Q 09-12 6/18 RF Leg 13-14 6/12 LF Leg 15-16 6/12 Head 17-20 6/15 Weapon SR Attack% Damage Bite 6 35+6% 1D8+db Charge Trample 6 50% 8D6 Armor: 6 points Significant Skills: Smell Intruder 50+5, Listen 50+5 Quote Chaos stalks my world, but she's a big girl and can take of herself.
