[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 5178544, member: 1210"] All right, here are two BBEGs that the party fought this last weekend. For those of you familiar with the story of Orcus in my game, [i]Dead Gods[/i] and Quah-Nomag... this is where it all starts to come together. For those of you [i]not[/i] familiar with them, here's the key stuff you should know: [LIST] [*]Orcus was killed by Kiaransalee, but never restored to life. [*][i]Dead Gods[/i] is a 2e module that deals with his rebirth. [*]When bad guys tried to restore him in my campaign, pcs stopped them (this was during a one-off at a convention). [*]I am now going to tie elements of [i]Dead Gods[/i] into my campaign, as well as to P2, and have started with a "stop the bad guy before he completes his ritual and escapes!" kind of thing. [*]Quah-Nomag is the ogre priest in [i]Dead Gods[/i] that is responsible for the return of Orcus. [/LIST] That said, here is Quah-Nomag. [B][SIZE="4"]Quah-Nomag, Ogre Servant of Tenebrous--- Level 10 Solo Controller[/SIZE][/B] Large natural humanoid--- XP 2,500 [B]Initiative [/B]+5; [B]Senses[/B] Perception +10 [B]Threshold of Death[/B] aura 3; Each living creature other than Quah-Nomag that starts its turn in the aura gains vulnerable 2 all until the start of its next turn. Death saves made within the aura suffer a -2 penalty, and a creature that dies within the aura has its soul consumed by Tenebrous. [B]HP [/B]416; [B]Bloodied[/B] 208 [B]AC[/B] 23; [B]Fortitude[/B] 23; [B]Reflex[/B] 17; [B]Will [/B]18 [B]Resist [/B]5 necrotic; [B]Vulnerable[/B] 10 radiant [B]Saving Throws[/B] +5 [B]Speed[/B] 8 [B]Action Points[/B] 2 [B]:bmelee: Greatclub [/B](standard; at-will) [B]• Weapon[/B] Reach 2; +15 vs AC; 2d10 + 5 damage. See also Joy in Dying. [B] :close: Greatclub Sweep[/B] (standard; at-will) Burst 2; Targets enemies.; +13 vs AC; 2d10 + 5 damage. See also Joy in Dying. [B]:melee: Throw an Elbow[/B] (minor (only 1/round until bloodied); at-will) +15 vs AC; 2d6 + 5 damage, and the target is dazed until the end of its next turn. See also Joy in Dying. [B]:ranged: Vitality Siphon[/B] (standard; at-will)[B] • Necrotic[/B] Ranged 10; +14 vs Fortitude; 2d6 + 5 necrotic damage, Quah-Nomag gains a +2 bonus on attack rolls until the end of his next turn, and the target is slowed (save ends). [B]:close: Fearsome Invocation of the Undead God[/B] (standard; recharge 5 6) [B]• Fear, Psychic[/B] Burst 5; +12 vs Will; 2d6 + 5 psychic damage, and the target moves its speed away from Quah-Nomag (triggering opportunity attacks normally). [B]Joy in Dying[/B] (while bloodied) Quah-Nomag's greatclub and greatclub sweep attacks also push the target 4 or knock it prone when they hit (Quah-Nomag's choice), and his throw an elbow attack also knocks the enemy prone on a hit. [B]:close: Favor of Tenebrous[/B] (immediate reaction; when hit by a melee or close attack; at-will) [B]• Necrotic, Lightning[/B] Burst 3; targets the triggering creature; +14 vs Reflex; 3d6 + 5 lightning and necrotic damage, and the target slides 2.
