[QUOTE="Andrew Moreton, post: 7586344, member: 6920268"] I also had Kell gone from the picture . If Saxby escaped she would be a good option in my game she was in custody so I did not consider her. I would pick from your available pool of villains someone who the players found memorable as an opponent and would like another chance at. I used the 'Shadow man' from book 2 but had him fall in a pool of Witch oil and come back as even more of a megative energy being, but he was outstaged by Bourne. Nothing he could do made as big an impression as Bourne towering over them and starting to move. Whoever you are using decide what allies she will have with her and then work out what you need to boost her to be a real challange to the pc's. I think the idea of giving them some sort of boost with Ob golem or shadow energy technology to make them seem weirder is interesting, but I would at least give them gear equal to WBL. For Saxby I rebuilt her as a Slayer anyway as Rogue/Fighter says rebuild me as a slayer to me whenever I see it and she was not a Dex build to use unchained rogue Weapon Finesse. So boosting her as a higher level slayer is straight forward which means she wants allies to flank with , the Ankou's shadow archetype gives some cool and atmospheric shadow powers she could have gained. I don't see any good prestige classes or muticlassing opportunities. A Golem arm with an autoloading firearm which can makes its own extra attack would be a nice weird addition and help her with the action economy against a squad of pc's, as would some form of haste effect from a golem frame built into her limbs or the like, maybe she has electicity pouring through her nervous system driving her into a berserk hasted frenzy with the same stat boosts as a barbarian and if you are really mean letting her pounce attack .
