He is a little straight forward for my tastes. :yawn: He teleports into a position where he is adjacent to as many people as possible and uses his close burst 1 power. Every turn, for 2 turns he uses the close burst 1 power twice. While that is a pretty scary amount of damage for a level 4...

That’s a good idea with the aura, it upgrades nicely. To turn this into an elite I would consider:- 1: Increasing Shadow Jaunt to teleport 5 2: Change Beshadowed Mind to a minor action but keep the recharge 456, and change the damage from 2d6+4 damage to 5 ongoing necrotic damage (save...

I think you might have to describe this in a clearer way. It seems like you know exactly what is happening but your description doesn't quite give enough information.

Well to be honest you seem to be able to reel off a whole load of information. This tells me that you probably already know more than enough to use ASIA in your campaign. Personally I would just write a very brief summary of each department type and add a short list of names and titles for use...

welcome to Enworld! Now please dont take this the wrong way but is the Supernatural a well known factor in your modern world? I am saying this because from your set up it seems like a pretty big organisation with a sizable public presence and quite a few resources. Oh I like the ASIA...

It sounds like you are building a specific creature for a specific encounter. My advice in this case is to think about the encounter as a whole, try and base power options around interacting with the terrain and scenery. Low level solos can be difficult to design in general due to the PCs...

H1 Very low level solo’s are pretty tough to design, especially without a good working knowledge of the group they are facing, are you sure you wouldn’t be better off with an elite? Anyway here is a stat block for a creature that might work, or give you a few ideas. I have designed it under...

Recently I was thinking about interactive terrain elements, things you could switch on or off that altered the battlefield in some way. Then I suddenly thought it would be cool if a creature was interactive. Here is my first attempt at a truly interactive creature and it should probably be...

Ah the old NPC rolls a 1 in an important knowledge check. Its funny because it happens, back at the beginning of my campaign the PCs found a small crystal statuette of the "aspect of destruction" that had sent the dean of a university mad. They realised it was important so they took it to the...

I'm not a fan of Frightful Glance at all, it would be yet another penalty to a creatures attack roll, at higher levels when stacked with other penalties I think it will be too much. I think it should probably be "..it takes a -2 penalty to attack rolls that include you as a target" at the very...

Here are a couple of quick ideas: A mad prophet walking around town occasionally stopping to pronounce tiding of doom. He talks of things like; the ill wind from the north, the wintery breath of the Raven Queen seeking out sinners, agents of heathen religions paralysing people by enticing them...

Does anyone have a MM3 style blank stat block, or know where one is available for download? Historically I have used Asmors monster maker to output my creatures into html then copied and pasted into word but this might not be the easiest or cleanest method going forward. Ideally what I want...

Personally I don't like the idea of not letting the PCs use encounter or daily powers. Daily powers are a valuable resources that you want the group to expend rather stopping them. I am also undecided on the wisdom of creating two different types of combat encounter. My main concern is that it...

Pirate Bloodbeard - “Argh matey, which way thar wind be blowin outa murder cove?” Pirate Three Tooth – “Aye, hows me booty mate, thems dubloons cost me two fingers and me left leg in the battle of crook’d point” Pirate Bloodbeard – “arrgh” Pirate Colin – “Well, early feedback from focus group...

That is one of the most amusing things I have read in a while, what were WoTC thinking omitting this (now obvious) racial ability! On a more serious note I think you might be able to expand on this a little. You could think about a rule where whenever the goat is thrown 1 member of the...

As you asked for any other thoughts I had, here is what I had written out to post but deleted because it was just unnecessary ramblings. As I was writing it I suddenly realised that any fleshing out of plot would depend on the DM and style of play, and that what you had presented in the...

Well I have read the scenario and it is very well presented and nicely written, I especially love the flavour text for the villains elaborate “sales pitch”. The problem I have with it is that I can’t really see where it would fit as a side quest in a campaign. I understand the hook, and the...

OK I am not sure how many encounters you have left inside the asylum, but my initial idea revolves around your boss creature having to build itself a body from harvested parts. This implies that it is a disembodied entity seeking to manifest fully, you also state that it has acquired traits from...

That's my kind of plot, good stuff. Lets see what we can come up with!

Here’s a little something I have just thought of: Vortex Horror A Vortex Horror is a 12ft tall vaguely humanoid creature composed of thick twisting trunks of white sinew and muscle wreathed in pulsing strands of crackling black lightning. The headless creature’s most notable feature is the...
