Foes

When creating a Foe you follow the Character Creation steps, but below are some guidelines on how to make a Foe/Enemy for a certain level of Players. We also provide a section from converting tradition foe stat blocks to a LittleP6 format.

Creating a Foe

A foe consists of 5 primary attributes

• Hit Points (HP)
• Armor Class (AC)
• Physical Attribute Level (PHY)
• Mental Attribute Level (MEN)
• Traits & Abilities

Hit Points

HP is of course how many times a Foe can be hit before dying

Armor Class

This how hard the Foe is to hit. This is what PCs have to at least roll to make a hit against this opponent.

Physical Attribute

This sets up the dice pool this enemy will use to make Physical Test like attacking with a sword during combat.

This also sets their Stamina Pool at PHY

Mental Attribute

This sets up the dice pool for Awareness Tests and Magical Abilities

This also sets their Mana Pool at MEN

Traits & Abilities

Most foes will at least have one trait or ability just like a hero will, but these may not come from the same Traits list. The GM should be creative with the Foes abilities.

If a foe's trait gives the foe damage Reduction, Resistance, or Immunity, you should reduce the foe's HP by the following table:

Guidelines

Follow the guidelines below for creating foes. Though these guidelines are helpful if they don't make sense with the story, modify your creature to the story. The Story always comes first!

• AC: 1
• Traits/Abilities: 0 total

MEN and PHY should both be 1

Place either MEN or PHY at 2 and the other at 1

• AC: >= 7
• Traits/Abilities: <= 10 total

Place either MEN or PHY at 5 and the other at 4

Guidelines

NOTE: The below suggestions are without any traps. For each trap involved remove ~(# in party) from the Max Total HP per session NOTE: If the party is facing their Solo Enemy Level reduce the Max Total HP per session by ~(# Total HP in the party)/(# in party)

Converting a Traditional Statblock

1. Divide HP by 10, round up
2. AC = CR / 3, round up
   • If 0 make it equal to 1
   • If result >= 7, subtract 1
   • If result >= 9, subtract 2
3. Physical AL = AVG(STR, DEX, CON) / 4
   • If result > 5, make it 5
4. Mental AL = AVG(INT, WIS, CHA) / 4
   • If result > 5, make it 5
5. Convert Damage Resistances
   • Make half Damage Resistances into Damage Reductions
   • Make the other half Damage Resistances into Damage Resistances
6. Convert Damage Immunities
   • Self explainatory: Damage Immunity
7. Ledendary Resistance
   • This can only be used once per session
8. Convert Equipment
   • Light Weapons deal 1 damage
   • Light Magic Weapons deal 2 damage
     • The +1 damage can be any type of damage
     • Pick the damage most related to the stat block weapon
   • Heavy Weapons deal 2 damage
   • Heavy Magic Weapons deal 3 damage
     • The +1 damage can be any type of damage
     • Pick the damage most related to the stat block weapon
   • Armor doesn't add any AC, but if it has abilities add them to the foe
9. Convert Actions into Traits and Abilities
   • If they have more then their max number of Traits and Abilities in the above guidelines. Limit it to its max and disregard some of the foes lesser abilities
