- Original GURPS conversion by Enraged Eggplant, from Monsters (May 11, 2024); adapted and republished with permission.
- GCS ancestry draft: gcs/gray-render.gct
- Source template total: 180 points.
- Library-rebuilt template total: 181 points.
- CER was computed from parsed Typical Stats using the Dungeons On Automatic baseline CER path.
- GCS cost adjudication for "Parthenogenesis": the source states 0 points and the native GCS library computes 1. Adopted the authorized source value of 0. The fan document lists Parthenogenesis as a zero-point feature throughout, while Power-Ups prices it as a 1-point perk. This is a consistent conversion convention, not an arithmetic slip, so the author's zero-point treatment is preserved and the one-point difference is recorded rather than corrected.
- CER recomputed from the reviewed Typical Stats through the canonical Dungeons on Automatic CER path: OR 23, PR 26, CER 49, threat tier standard.
- Conversion baseline reported OR 24, PR 26, CER 50 (tier standard). The reviewed values come from the consumer CER implementation, which rounds damage once after the damage-type multiplier and credits ranged accuracy; the conversion baseline ceilinged the damage base first and ignored range.
- Encounter metadata derived (gregarious): average number appearing 2, wandering weight 3. Encounter metadata derived for 0.2.0 from the reviewed threat tier and creature class (appearing: minor 4 / standard 2 / major 1 / severe 1, forced to 1 for solitary classes — including swarms, which are a single multi-body creature — and raised to 6 for gregarious minor creatures; wandering weight: minor 4 / standard 3 / major 2 / severe 1). The fan-conversion source states no appearing-in-numbers or wandering values, so these are derived, not source mechanics.
- Lair, treasure, and grappling remain unpopulated in 0.2.0 by package policy: the authorized fan-conversion source states no lair, treasure, or grappling values, and review declines to invent them. See review/policy/0.2.0-empty-field-policy.md.
- Review approved by automated-mechanical-review on 2026-07-26 (batch ee-2026-07-26-b1-gcs-costs); GCS fidelity check passed, DOA playability check passed.
- Every exact-identity cost discrepancy on this record is adjudicated against the published GURPS cost table in review/reports/gcs-adjudication.md; the adopted value and its basis are recorded in conversionNotes.
- Visual GCS verification of the .gct is not claimed by this decision; checks.gcsVisualPass is false.
