Which is the case. IIRC she had 3 forms per the books: 5 headed dragon, dark warrior and beautiful temptress.

I don't use Beyond. I'd rather have everything in one place and in print. But I completely understand your point.

I, for one, am in favor of the introductory mini-adventures. I've always been in favor of the players learning the world while playing, whether it is a homebrew or published one. At most I'd give them a one page primer. Learning while playing is better.
