She is currently bound in a cave deep within the Hogara Mountains, but was found recently by an evil elven ranger who she has convinced to start a group designed to drive humans out of the area. The ranger doesn't know she's a demon, as she appeared to him in an alternate form, but he does know she is bound and wishs to help her escape - something that cannot be achieved while humans live among the elves.The PCs encounted her last night far ahead of when I planned for them to do so), but she appeared to them as an elderly but beutiful elven woman, and told them that the wizard who bound her did so to convince her to marry him. They have no idea what is going on. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />Anyway, let me know what you think of Dreadwail. I'd like to give her some kind of sonic attack, but I don't want to bump the CR up really, as the PCs are still only 7th level, so I want them to be about 10th, or at least 9th when they face her. I was thinking of making the name ironic ang giving her a siren's song (from the MM2that she can use to make extra suggestions. Any feedback would be much appreciated!---------------Dreadwail, Cataboligne CorruptorFemale Cataboligne Fiend of Corruption 2; CR 14; Large Outsider (Chaotic, Evil, Extraplanar); 12d8+72 plus 2d6+12; HP 139; Init +8; Speed 40 ft., fly 50 ft.
