[QUOTE="Ycore Rixle, post: 929737, member: 675"] Our campaign featured an avolakian clerk/lawyer named Slinkmor Vorshannen. Of course, for a long time, the party had no idea he was an avolakian. He used his [I]suggestion[/I] power to get half the city in legal bondage before the party realized he was a powerful creature, and he very nearly succeeded in causing a popular uprising against the so-called "heroes" of the town. The high point for Slinkmor came when the halfling rogue raided his office for evidence to use against the avolakian. The rogue found evidence aplenty - but then fenced a bunch of other loot without thinking. Slinkmor, of course, with his 20+ wisdom and intelligence, traced the fencing, pinned it on the halfling rogue's guild, exposed the halfling as a thief, and came very near to convincing everyone in the town that the halfling should be exiled. Eventually, the party beat Slinkmor at his own game. The slimy avolakian then fled the trial into the sewers, where the party quickly cornered him. The barbarian, who had so often been beguiled by Slinkmor before (avolakians should always direct their [I]suggestions[/I] at creatures with low will saves), dispatched him quickly with a few sword chops. So the combat was not too long, but for all the grief Slinkmor caused the players, he was definitely worth a CR10. This subplot in our game took a while, maybe from levels 10-12 for the players.
