[QUOTE="Hejas, post: 5560826, member: 98099"] My heroic-tier Forgotten Realms campaign is coming to an end, PCs are almost 11lvl and soon they'll have to face the campaign's main villain. I want the battle to be as memorable as possible and there aren't any existing monster that I know of that fit my villain's describtion so I decided to stop lurking and ask you for help. ;) My archvillain is a tall and attractive human female, using her charms to seduce and control men. Something every woman does, only bigger scale. She's a spellscarred daughter of a mighty witch and an outlaw archwizard, so she's supposed to use arcane magic, as well as some nature-based powers and spellscar powers, preferably based on existing spells/powers. Obviously she needs a couple of charm/domination powers. I'm not sure whether I should make her a solo monster, or an elite one. She'll definately be accompanied by a slightly tweaked MM1 Shield Guardian and a couple of MV Doppleganger Infiltrators. After being slain by PCs she'll transfer her soul to a long-destroyed Dracolich corpse for which i'll use the slightly upgraded MV Deathbringer Dracolich stats, so her final form will be a solo monster. First part of the battle will take place in her city hideout and the whole thing will end in the middle of a plaguechanged necropolis in Halruaa. If they follow her after she escapes through the portal that is. Also, player characters are quite strong and need a challenge. I'm not asking you to create the entire stat block - I just need some ideas based on your personal experience with similar monsters. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
