[QUOTE="Leatherhead, post: 8600203, member: 53176"] [HEADING=2]Drow Favored Consort (MToF)[/HEADING] The Drow Favored Consort is a combination of an arcane bodyguard and, er consort, that typically serves a priestess of Lolth. Outside of being arm candy, they make for simple yet effective CR 18 spellswords, for any reason that you may need to stab and/or sling a spell at something at that level. A particularly useful out of combat spell for the Consort is [I]Message[/I], which allows them to act like a government agent that has a wire in their ear. The rest of their spells are more useful for combat. Speaking of combat, the Consort will stay close to whomever they are protecting, in order to use their Protective Shield power, and in case they need to use [I]Dimension Door[/I] to escape with their ward. While their Scimitar is functional as a melee option, their Arcane Eruption is a superior combat choice, having long range and the ability to automatically push targets around with no save for a measure of control. The rest of their useful spells are [I]Fireball[/I], for dealing with groups, and either [I]Levitate[/I] (to mimic flying) or [I]Faerie Fire[/I] as they have nothing else worth concentrating on. In the changeover, the Consort was totally overhauled. They lost the bulk of their spells, (including [I]Counterspell, [/I]which is extremely handy for a bodyguard) but gained the Arcane Eruption attack, which was attached to their multiattack. Their multiattack can now be used to cast spells, which ups their attacks per spell cast from one to two. The Drow poison on their Scimitar was replaced with a pure damage poison. They lost their hand Crossbow entirely. And finally they gained the Protective Shield power to use as a reaction. [/QUOTE]
