[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 6011895, member: 57383"] Hmm, there's no mention of Ythog-Nthlei having [I]any[/I] SLAs, but there is a slight implication it has some kind of dimensional travel. [B][I]From "Important Note" before [/I]Area 19 [/B]"Exactly 10 turns after the characters descend the spiral staircase and enter the alien base, the evil priests of Ythog Nthlei will succeed in freeing their master. The only way to prevent them from attaining their goal is to kill them before the end of 10 turns. If they succeed, Ythog Nthlei will [COLOR=Red][B]instantly move[/B][/COLOR] to Room 31 with his treasure:" [B][I]From [/I]Area 31[/B] "This appears to be the throne room of the complex. Directly in front of the party there is a strange type of chair, clearly made for some inhuman creature several times the size of a man... If Ythog-Nthlei has escaped his bondage, he will [B][COLOR=Red]appear[/COLOR][/B] on the throne and attack the party as it enters". It's roughly 450 feet from the sarcophagous Ythog-Nthlei is trapped in at Area 22 to its throne room in Area 31, yet the Dark Prince can "instantly move" from one to the other. It'd take him 4 rounds to travel between the two at his listed 12" speed. Also, the description makes no mention of Ythog-Nthlei being visible on the throne - does he "appear" on it (out of nowhere?) when the PCs intrude, oe is he just lounging there are the wording is sloggy? If the former, Ythog-Nthlei is either able to turn invisible or ethereal, or it somehow can know that there are intruders in its throne room ([I]scry[/I] maybe?) and [I]dimension door[/I] or [I]greater teleport[/I] to the throne. How about we stat up the "standard" Ythog-Nthlei with appropriate SLAs and Su powers, and then add a subentry for a weakened Ythog-Nthlei who has just been released from its imprisonment and has not yet regained its Awesome Eldritch Powers?
