[QUOTE="bgbarcus, post: 6640341, member: 6784891"] If you want the rakshasa to be real challenge don't let him fight the barbarian. Depending on the exact circumstances, he could congratulate the barbarian on his combat prowess against the guards, who were suspected of being spies for an enemy, and then offer the barbarian a job. That maintains the rakshasa's secret and his life. It fits the monster better than getting into a combat it probably can't win. And it give Lord Waldemar a chance to send his enemy on a mission that is more than the barbarian can handle, or puts the barbarian into a place Lord Waldemar knows about where assassins can be sent to dispatch Mr. Slashy. If the barbarian is having nothing to do with that subterfuge, Lord Waldemar should spend his first turn drinking a faux potion (take a swig of from the flask in his pocket to act like he's drinking a potion) and use his Plane Shift to get outta there with his secret identity in tact. The consequences of getting killed are way too big for a rakshasa to willingly get caught in a combat it could avoid. [/QUOTE]
