I'm new here, I used to read this forum quite often but now, I have a question and couldn't find the answer up to now.I was thinking about creating some kind of nemesis for the players party. The party is lvl 4, so I built a lvl 4 Paladin multiclassed into a warlock. The result is quite surprising. I built the enemy as if I would have created a player character. The question is:Is this monster considered a solo monster? An elite? I would be surprise if it was considered as a single lvl 4 monster unnamed. As I said, he appears to be quite strong and, I think, could be a great challenge for the 3-players party.I didn't find the answer in the DMG.Also, last game, I made my party fight against a "mirror golem". One of the player, by touching some kind of magic mirror, got "eaten" by the mirror (sorry here, I'm sure you'll understand even if it's not the right word, it's just that I use to speak french <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> ). The battle was on 2 sides. The character that got eaten was fighting on his side of the mirror against the golem, and the 2 others players were fighting it on their side. I used the rule to create a solo monster (starting with the PC sheet of the player that got eaten, adding stats as the DMG said for solo monsters), and got a result quite too strong for the players. I had to improvise to make them fight the golem without them dying in the first round =PIn what category of monster a Player Character is?Hope my english isn't too bad <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Hymn'</blockquote>
