[QUOTE="ParanoydStyle, post: 7773462, member: 6984451"] Nice! One of my favorite mythological figures, actually, Mike, as well as Modred. Morgan/Morgana represents a literary/fantasy/mythic archetype I'm a little obsessed with right now, the "Dark Queen", with (the original) Maleficient being a very visible example. The insect wings feel like a bit...much? Unless there was actually any indication of that trait in the "source material" (the source material in this case being the so-called "matter of Britain", largely understood in the modern day through the lens of T.H. White's classic [I]The Once And Future King[/I].) The stat block seems just about right for the most part. A strong argument could probably be made for doing her as a Warlock rather than a unique Sorcerer/Druid/Cleric combo, but I don't care enough to make it lol. I will say that for a CR 13 enemy she is VERY fragile. 88 hp is very little at that level and at that level an AC of 15 isn't a defense at all. I'd probably give her some more magic items ([I]cloak of displacement[/I] comes immediately to mind) and tweak her spell list a little ([I]superior invisibility[/I] would be useful). (Oh, and if I were to use her in something for whatever reason I'd give her legendary actions/lair actions because she is literally a legend but that's probably true of most of your Mythological Figures series.)
