[sblock=Something to rival her agility and speed... (CR 20)]Someone from where "be quick or be dead" is a reality, from where magic infuses ever particle... someone which will make her liquid movements seem cristalized...
A humanoid figure of gaceful, almost enthralling liquid movement. With both flesh and metal as skin, at times it seems like mercury runs over the skin, but when one looks again it's not there. The only thing which stops mortals from staring enthralled for hours at the figure is the head, a helmet housing darkness from where two pinpoints of green light witness the world run slowly. Those pinpoints are unnerving enough to wake an unconscious man.

I came to the Rogues Gallery hoping someone could write me up a last minute NPC for me. I'll be needing it for my session this week and I'm so behind on preparation due to planning my girlfriends bday dinner & my wedding proposal to her this Friday. I saw this thread so I figured I'd beg for your NPC creating skills.
I own every WotC 3.5 book up until whatever was released in November. I don't use Eberron stuff though. This NPC isn't an important character...he/she is meant to appear and die in one major encounter. So no real depth is needed, I just need this NPC to provide some major defense support to the Sorcerer & fighter minions.
Jah'Ahleel obeyed his Ultraloth master without question. Being a Githzerai, he was very disciplined and any chance he got, he would preach his clerical faith to anyone who would listen....or not listen. Today, Jah'Ahleel was given the assignment to protect his masters pet servitor; the crafty Tiefling sorceress & her 6 Mezzoloth brutes. The brief instructions given to him were to pray to his god for protection against arrow attacks, acid damage, electricity spells, & brute strength attacks. His masters parting words were, "...and see what you can do to defend your allies against Evard's Tentacles...the Tiefling was gifted the knowledge of that spell herself, but so to does her enemy have access to that devastating attack, or so she says....".

I'm actually excited to see this NPC stated out. I know there's not much room for adding in a PrC, but you're more than welcome to make him as crazy as you can. I've never used an NPC that someone created for me...so this'll be fun.
Plus, I suck at making NPC builds. I'm good at creating interesting personalities & roleplaying them, but I blow it on the crunch end of things.
