[QUOTE="sirwmholder, post: 4058408, member: 41558"] That could work... I want to create a visual that the creature that is radiating heat... something similar to Firestarter... the Caster launches an Ice Shard attack ( Evoke Ice 4 / Gen 1 , Range)... the five shards quicly melt as they approach the BBEG... becoming steam before finally reaching the intended target as nothing more than wisp of flame. There have been hints that this BBEG has strong ties to fire... though party prep work has so far been very minimal... think something like, "Ok, a fire guy... well let's cool him off with some Evoke Ice attacks." What I am trying to create is a more careful planning on the party's end. They tend to just run head long into things with little regard to warnings and very little in the way of prep work. For instance... there is a guy that survived an encounter with this BBEG... he is currently being cared for by is daughter who is also a low level healer. The party learned of this and went to the house in the dead of night. She turned them away saying he needed his rest and to come by again in the morning. Not wanting to waste anytime they left that night and camped along the road. Thanks for the input, William Holder PS ~ I've thought about the illusion bit but I'm saving it for a much stronger encounter... remember the mirror image with the Caster on the cat walk above ;) [/QUOTE]
