[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 1357417, member: 63"] Heh, I ran them tonight against a swarm of about 15 of these different incarnations (plus lots of weak ones that were just scary dreams made manifest). Desire went down first to a disintegrate that bypassed spell resistance, saving throw, and incorporeality. Wizard succeeded his Will save to avoid brain damage and avoid having people try to swarm over him in desire. Darkness was searing lighted to death. Wizard succeeded his Will save to avoid brain damage and avoid catching fire in sunlight. The World Falling Upon Itself was made solid by a magical song, then baleful polymorphed into a kitten, then critically-hit and chopped to pieces. It had failed its Will save, so it was no longer a dream, but just a kitten. Disease was killed with two attacks, and the ranger succeeded her Will save to avoid brain damage and avoid being eternally ill. Brawn was killed by a summoned demon. Somewhere there is a very strong demon. Cacophony was killed by a swarm of flying warriors who nearly went deaf. The fighter/sorceress made her save to avoid having her voice shatter with the force of a thousand bells. Beauty was killed, and this was the only time someone failed a save. So now we have a temporarily unconscious, stunningly gorgeous female Elvish ranger, who will cause some interesting roleplaying once she recovers. So the party got out completely free, though rather beaten up. Everyone was rolling 17s and 20s for their saves against the cool ones like disease, but she goes and rolls a 2 for her save against Beauty. Ah well. Hey, now we've basically got a PC nymph. [/QUOTE]
