<!-- Description of creatures with this template.  Feel free to include a sample creature -->

=== Creating a Child ===

“Child” is an acquired template that can be added to any living creature (referred to hereafter as the base creature). 

Note that this template can be lost by means of ‘growth’. When this happens, undo the effects of this template. 

A child uses all the base creature’s statistics and special abilities except as noted here.

==== Size and Type ====

Size::" Reduce by one category." 
==== Hit Dice ====

Adjust for size by dividing by two.
==== Speed ====

The child’s movement speed is divided by two, rounding up to the next multiple of 5 feet. The child’s flight maneuverability drops one category. If this makes it worse than clumsy, the child cannot fly.
==== Armor Class ====

First divide natural armor by 2. Then adjust for size by reducing natural armor by 2 if the base form is Medium, or by 1 if the base form is Large, Huge, Gargantuan, or Colossal.
Also adjust size modifier to fit the new size.
==== Attack ====

Reduce damage by one step to fit the new size. Adjust Base Attack to fit the new Hit Dice.

==== Full Attack ====

Reduce damage by one step to fit the new size. Adjust Base Attack to fit the new Hit Dice.

==== Special Attacks ====

The child retains all the base creature’s special attacks.

==== Special Qualities ====

The child retains all the base creature’s special qualities.
==== Abilities ====
