Well, for one, while I about have zero suggestions to
exact creatres for use against Deep Ones - there are
other niches to fill.
First and foremost, we are raising 26 Heart Trees this month.
Those need guards.
2 Verdant Wolves, 2 Advacced Druid Lorus Leshi and 1 Druid/Cleric Treant
per Tree seem reasonable defense line to
at least slow down whatever may try to harm those.
Totals to 52 Verdant Wolves, 52 Advanced Lotus Leshi and 26 Druid/Cleric Treants.
And then we
also need teachers for Scholarums.
Specifically, we need
anyone capable of filling up the roles, just so that we roll more dice monthly.
That means, if we are to cover up to Manpower cap:
Tyrosh: 1/21
Tolos: (?)/32
Mantarys: (?)/13
Naath: 1/0 (? Not enough people to bother? Wyla is teaching there still)
So, even not knowing how many we have teaching in Tolos and Mantarys... We need to make at least
60 (!) spellcasting teachers.
I assume that Advanced Lotus Leshy with Wizard/Cleric tempaltes would work best.
So, in total we need:
52 Advanced Lotus Leshi (CR9 7 HD) - 364 HD
30 Advanced Cleric Lotus Leshy (CR9 7 HD) - 210 HD
30 Advanced Wizard Lotus Leshy (CR9 7 HD) - 210 HD
52 Verdant Wolves (CR6, 6 HD) - 312 HD
26 Druid/Cleric Treants (CR10 7 HD) - 182 HD
Totals to 1278 HD.
We have enough bodies in Larder to plantforge/fleshforge up to
3083 HD in total.
So,
@Crake,
@Goldfish, with above in mind, you would have ~ 1805 HD of "free" palntforged creatures, and all else would cost bling/reagents.
@TalonofAnathrax, we don't have Tolos and Mantarys on Scholarum sheets, but they
do have Scholarum branches established there.
