I dislike "Unnatural" and "Fey" being together, but all right. I do like the Demonthorn creature, although I see an error in its statblock (it's called a mandrake).The Fomorian solo controllers are dark fey magic users. The masters often create the Displacer Beast Nightmare (a two headed displacer beast) to aid them. These are how controllers should be; two immediate reaction powers (one at will, one encounter), and several options.[sblock]Ghost trolls are very cool. They are created by rituals, and while insubstantial, they lose their insubstantial status if they take acid, fire or radiant damage. I like the Devourer - it basically bites someone and holds them in its teeth/stomach, restraining them until they save.[/sblock]New hag, yay!New Magical Items:Eladrin Ring of Passage Lvl 14 (coulda sworn I've seen this somewhere)Life Force Amulet - Lvl 17+ - Nice.Mordant Weapon - Lvl 8+ - Does poison/acid damage. The daily is a close blast 3, however. Nice.Torc of Fortune - Lvl 14+ - The daily power isn't worth writing home about, but the Property! Shift 2 when you make a saving throw on your turn.Sunwrath - Lvl 12 - +3 Longsword, gives a minor encounter power that lets you do fire and radiant damage until the end of your current turn.[sblock]There's also a nice Eye, can be used as an orb impliment, but is meant for a large spellcaster to put in their eye socket. There's a ritual that you can use with it, that teleports your body to a specified site when you die.Then there's the Stone Cauldron - a site which acts as a trap until you overcome it, and can use it to return someone as a ghost with the troll's 'you're insubstantial until you take acid/fire/radiant'. The book spells out 'we assume your players won't do this. If they do, institute your own penalties.'[/sblock]</blockquote>
