[QUOTE="Aegeri, post: 5397106, member: 78116"] No, we really don't because all of her allies suggested in the article have plenty of ink to paper across several books. For heroic/early paragon fey and plant type critters there are: Nymphs Several Dryads Eladrin Hags (Upper Heroic, easily deleveled into mid heroic) Oblivion Moss (Plant Monster - really appropriate for her as well) Shambling Mound Treants Quicklings Scarcrows (Murderous Fey Constructs that kill mortals? Why thank you for the perfect fit from just the other month in Dungeon) As a short list. Now when you're actually facing her at epic her allies are.... Um... Formorians with some levels? Making your own dryads (as a level 5 dryad does not level up to 26/27 nicely)? Templating anything you can think of with the Wood Bride? But basically you'd need to make these monsters from scratch. Yeah, there is very little of her own level. This is partly because epic is devoid largely of creatures beyond demons - but there are plenty of heroic monsters. Just thinking about it, I could easily run a campaign based around her from levels 1-10 without much of an issue. By mid paragon I'm struggling and by epic tier I'm basically making 90% of my monsters to support this campaign. So some epic tier allies would have been really nice, because as it is you're going to have to make most of them. Unfortunately if the author isn't given much of a word count, it's difficult to include all the really good background material + several additional statblocks. 4E really has the opposite problem. Lots of heroic monsters and then we run out of ideas the higher level we get. [/QUOTE]
