[QUOTE="Mentat55, post: 4656394, member: 14840"] I based this off of the 3E MM2 version (not familiar with any other). Because it can cast so many spells, I figured it needed to be at least an Elite, if not a Solo, monster. And because I thought it should be something of a glass cannon, I made it an Artillery monster, though it has some Controller aspects and could definitely be retooled in that direction. The number of actions it can take per round might be a bit much for an elite monster, but I figured it might act as sort of a baby solo in this regard, having some of the punch without all of the staying power.
