[QUOTE="Primitive Screwhead, post: 3442009, member: 20805"] Going off the assumption that 'Society Mind' is a title, not a PrC :) Have you picked up Secrets of Sarlona yet? I assume the PC's will encounter the Inspired in some dark corner away from prying eyes.. in which case I would have the Inspired suddenly shuck off the civilized shell and go full out to slay the Khalastar and his mininons. A Monk/Soulknife/Fists of DalQuor build that uses Hazing Strike would work for the BBEG. Though in some Quori Dread to make it more memorable as an encounter. Her skills would focus on diplomancy/sense motive rather than being a fully optimized killing machine. This would allow you to have her at the top end of your level range without being too TPK'ish. The retinue should be modeled after an adventuring party.. so one tank, one healer, one arcane caster{to dispell/ranged combat}, and a Bard {to countersong :)} The tank should have at least one level of Rogue to allow coordinated tactics with BBEG in flanking manuevers. At least one of the support should be able to summon Quori Spirits to fight {Summon Monster/Astral Construct} The BBEG should choose where to fight, a location that limits ranged combat being preferable as her group does not really include that. The BBEG's focus is twofold: - Destroy the Khalastar - Avoid losing her 'cover' as a diplomat JMHO :) [/QUOTE]
