[QUOTE="J-H, post: 9828368, member: 7020951"] Where did the spirit come from? What are its themes beyond spooky and causes disease and fog? I know you want a boss fight, but this sounds more like undifferentiated manifestations of its presence rather than a single boss. Here's a Poison Mist elemental. It can be nearly invisible in the fog, so it makes a good surprise attacker, and it seems like it's on-theme as something they encounter. [spoiler=Poison Mist CR 7] [B]Poison Mist[/B] [I]A grey-green form swirls in the mist, reaching forwards with two insubstantial arms. A brown cloud seems to swirl around it, obscuring its precise position.
