Monologue could backfire slightly as it is probably not going to hit everyone, but it could be interesting as it would force the Princes allies into concentrating on the PCs who are not enraptured by the Princes preaching.  Yes, it is very powerful. Probably too powerful, but it could be bypassed by pushing any allies away from the prince before attacking him. Also the Prince is reasonably mobile so I think there could be quite a few turns where this power wasn't useful. One of the problems with designing the BBEG is that you have to make sure that it is a suitably epic fight and with him only being an elite he is still vulnerable to concentrated fire. Saying that it depends on the level of the PCs facing him.  This was probably part of a plan to help him escape before being slaughtered, an increased speed might give him a valuable edge. I havn't tied much to the bloodied condition so you could very easily lose this.  Yes that is the usual route with leaders. I just wanted to present a different approach as not all leaders are that inspiring and this guy is a politician. With this build the Aura of Loyalty is very much his leader ability.  Yes this would work, I would probably make it burst 2.  One of the problems with designing the Prince was that I didn't know what level the PCs would be in comparisson to the Prince, so I didn't know if handing out bonuses to attack rolls or defences would be balanced. If the Prince is already 3 or 4 levels higher than the PCs and he gets a +2 to +4 to his defences he could be unhittable.  Thats a great ability, I would keep it as a power and not as an aura. Again, not knowing your setting I didn't want to add anything too strange, and I would class Psychic damage as unusual, unless it came from a caster or an item.  Again a good power but what is the power source for this, it seems like a cleric ability or maybe an effect from an item? Why not make it a recharge <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/5.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":5:" title="Five    :5:" data-shortname=":5:" /><img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/6.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":6:" title="Six    :6:" data-shortname=":6:" /> or a recharge when first bloodied power for a little extra protection. Anyway I am happy if I have given you a few ideas to play with. Good luck with a suitably exciting end to the Heroic tier of your campaign.</blockquote>
