[QUOTE="Mike Myler, post: 7760199, member: 6726030"] I read as much in a few spots but it wasn't unanimous--that sounds reasonable though I wonder if it was more advantageous terrain than that. We're on a British website here and it seems the Queen's subjects are fond of her [I]so[/I] while I'm not saying you're incorrect, I'll just point out that to some folks she'd definitely be seen as a good character. Plenty of reason to think otherwise and I imagine if we asked a contemporary roman, they'd say she was evil for sure. ;) Glad you dug it! People have to request it. In Boudica's case I got word from on high that she was on the interesting list and there were about a half dozen different forum members that asked to see her to boot. It's awful hard to say how involved in the fighting she was (two thousand years ago) but since she's frequently depicted on a chariot with a spear, I got the impression she was at the very least there. There are definitely reasons for her to be lower level (maybe 6th or 7th?) but the last point of these builds is for them to be useful to GMs--the design sweet spot is for characters between 5th and 12th level, and as an NPC she's got more utility at CR 6. Plus she's a general and just a toooouch higher CR than the most experienced of the standard core combat NPCs one might expect to be among her soldiers (Gladiator at CR 5).
