[QUOTE="James Jacobs, post: 2158641, member: 23937"] I'd say the chances of the avolakia getting a little love (eew) in the pages of [i]Dungeon[/i] and maybe even in [i]Dragon[/i] at some point between today and this time today 14 months from now are close to 100% likely. As for them controlling undead... they can automatically control any undead they create with [i]animate dead[/i]. I've always envisioned avolakia clerics as being rather common, though, so any avolakia society will certainly have some of them handy to control other undead. I'm not sure what interest they'd have in undead more powerful than zombies, though, except as special courses during the avolakia equivalent of Thanksgiving. In which case they don't need to be able to controll them as much as they just need to be able to put them in a box or an oven. And for the record, I much prefered the illo that [i]Dragon[/i] ran over the MM II illo. Although I much prefer the illo that Wayne did of the ulgurstasta for the [i]Fiend Folio[/i] over the one in that same [i]Dragon[/i] article. [/QUOTE]
