I see your point about making up for lost abilities and I thought about that when first replied. No difference until 3rd level but then the 3.5/SS succubus benefits from improved SR. Here's how things would look under my proposal (SR = 6 + class level) for getting to 3.5's final SR of 18. Here's what an SS (3.0) succubus SR would be at each level. In SS, the succubus gets 6 + HD SR and has a final SR of 12. ![]() Well, as I said, I would give them SR from level one. I hope you find these suggestions helpful. I couldn't cross-reference with a 3.0 MM, because I've donated my copy to a worthy cause. I've also made these suggestions based on having access to SS and MM 3.5. I confess to not having checked the skill point totals but I'd wager only the tiniest of tweaks might be necessary there, if at all. That seems to take care of the differences, unless I've missed something. I realise that the lower level creature is more spell resistant this way but that makes up for those low-level spell-like abilities the creature lost (see last paragraph) in the transition to 3.5. That gets us to the right (3.5) SR for a fully developed succubus. Here, SS says this is 6 + HD from class levels but that won't get us to 3.5's SR of 18, so I would make it 6 + class level. I think that can be swapped straight in at 11th level. In SS the creature's DR is 10/+2 at 11th level. I'd keep the SS guidelines on how the various powers scale up, as the succubus advances in levels. Teleport without error is replaced by greater teleport easily enough. I'd give the succubus this ability at 1st level but determine the caster level as the succubus level, for the purposes of calculating other limitations on chosen form. Alternate Form (Su) appears to have been replaced by polymorph limited to humanoid forms with no maximum duration. I would leave the remaining powers in the lesser/greater categories SS places them into. Keep the acquisition of lesser and greater powers as described in SS but remember that the 3.5 succubus doesn't get doom, clairaudience/clairvoyance, darkness, desecrate or unholy blight. Okay, I've never tried to answer a request like this before, so bear in mind I'm approaching this from the angle of trying to help, not being any kind of authority on SS-3.5 integration.
