[QUOTE="Amadeus Windfall, post: 4321223, member: 52145"] Reading through the Monster Manual, I thought the Archons seemed like particularly cool monsters, so I decided to try my hand at writing some up as my first attempts at 4E homebrew. So far, I've done the Fire Archon, and I'm wondering if it's balanced and fits the feel of the monsters.

[IMG]http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w107/amadeuswindfall/emberburst.png[/IMG] Militaristic creatures of the Elemental Chaos, fire archons were created by the Primordials to serve as soldiers in the war between the Gods and Primordials.
