Featured Article Nomination[edit]
I am incredibly proud of this horrific little creature, and I think it could make the cut. I see it as a finished page, and since there's a very limited selection of featured articles, I'd like to put it up for review. --Nuke The Earth (talk) 00:37, 9 April 2022 (MDT)
Support[edit]
- Support — Can't find a complaint with it. All the math checks out. These guys are much more dangerous than what the CR would imply. Great. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by vladulenta (talk • contribs) . Please sign your posts.
- Support — Nasty little critters. I enjoy their existence immensely. --ZarHakkar (talk) 07:55, 7 November 2022 (MST)
- Support — This creature is great! They're like baby versions of Cloakers, and can be used when having a higher level party fight a Cloaker as good minions/distractions. --Woahluigi (talk) 19:46, 20 November 2024 (MST)
- Oppose — Unless your campaign is fully in the underdark, lower-level characters will never see this creature, and it is too weak for high-level characters. --980010819 (talk) 09:19, 2 December 2022 (MST)
- Really? That's your angle here? This is bad because it has a low CR? --Nuke The Earth (talk) 09:47, 2 December 2022 (MST)
- Oppose — Mine is opposed, as support is overweighed by things to get fixed.DarkJester89

| CR 1/2 feels off due to grappling-based blind/silence and 4d6 acid burst. Suggest CR 1 and more HP or resistances.

| Bite's blind/suffocate effect is too easy to trigger. Suggest Grapple (Escape DC 13) on hit to control it.
|
Excellent synergy: Ambusher → Bite with advantage → Latch → Bile Spray.

| Missing Escape DC for the grapple itself—only has detachment DC.

| Lesser False Appearance needs clearer mechanics—does it provide Stealth advantage or visual concealment?

| Bile Spray does a lot of damage for low CR. Suggest 2d6–3d6 or limit to while latched; also clarify terminology (latch vs grapple).

| Damage Transfer may be abusable or confusing (especially with AoEs). Recommend clarifying and limiting it.

| Swarm behavior isn’t clearly explained in lore despite implied tactics.
|
Lore is great overall. Adds strong flavor for swarm-like behavior without using swarm mechanics: "While a single face eater poses a threat to lone travelers, they are rarely encountered alone..."

Unique role as a face-control predator. Excellent thematic fit for dark, claustrophobic environments.

- Comment. The image is really misleading, and the description could use more fluff because it leaves a lot to the imagination as well as reading through the creature many times before the desired image of the face eater comes into mind. --Green Dragon (talk) 12:41, 11 April 2023 (MDT)
- As the one that made the art, what exactly is confusing and how can I improve on it?--Yanied (talk) 20:12, 20 November 2024 (MST)
