It can even use a decaton's SLAs and telepathy.Here's the "modronoid version" statblock:VALRAN STONEFIST (Pl/Ø modronoid/M13/N): AC 2; MV 15, Fl 3(E); HD 10+10;hp 90; THAC0 11; #AT 10; Dmg 1d4 (×10); SA spells; MR 10%; SZ M (7′tall); ML steady (13); Int exceptional (16); XP 11,000. Notes: Telepathic communication to a range of 44 miles. Though decatons normally cast spells as 10th-level clerics, Valran doesn’t receive spells from Primus; he does, however, retain his wizardly spellcasting abilities. Spell-like abilities only affect modrons, 1/round, at will: cure 1 point of damage for all modrons within 144 feet, cure disease in a 12-foot radius; heal by touch up to 10 modrons/round; and remove paralysis by touch, 10 modrons/round. Personality: Valran’s barmier than ever. Spells (5/5/5/4/4/2): 1st—color spray, friends, hypnotism, mending, shocking grasp; 2nd—bind, forget, shatter, stinking cloud, web; 3rd—blink, lightning bolt, slow, suggestion, wraithform; 4th—Evard’s black tentacles, fumble, polymorph other, shout; 5th—cone of cold, fabricate, telekinesis, wall of iron; 6th—disintegrate, globe of invulnerability. For comparison, here's Valran's human statblock. It's from a lot earlier in the adventure so he's a lower-level magic-user to balance the lower level PCs.VALRAN STONEFIST (Pl/♂ human/M7/Society of Sensation/CN): AC 3 (bracers of defense AC 4, Dex); MV 12; hp 18; THAC0 18; #AT 1; Dmg 1d6+1; SZ M (5′ tall); ML steady (13); XP 420 each. S 6, D 15, C 10, I 16, W 9, Ch 12. Personality: Valran is barmy, no doubt about that. His manner is a collection of odd ticks and jerks, and he swings from one mood to another with no warning. He’s fanatically devoted to the pursuit of knowledge. Special Equipment: staff of striking (20 charges), eyes of minute seeing, helm of comprehending languages and reading magic. Spells (4/3/2/1): 1st—friends, hypnotism, mending, shocking grasp; 2nd—bind, forget, web; 3rd—suggestion, wraithform; 4th—polymorph other.
