[QUOTE="MechaTarrasque, post: 7302404, member: 6801226"] The inscrutable trait was the first thing I thought of for a sphinx patron warlock (or maybe something to add to an "oath of secrets" paladin [slightly reworked oath of treachery]). That is a good point about gynosphinxes being more about wits than valor. The 10 years forward or backward legendary action could be used show the PC's a scene from 10 years ago (legendary back), come back to present time (legendary forward), and then a scene from 10 years in the future (legendary forward), then back the present time (legendary back). It seems like an int or wisdom based check would fit the sphinx's temperament. I really like the idea of the sphinx getting her hopes up for the wrong PC, especially if she is a little condescending to the right PC (funny if the not very bright barbarian accidentally ends up achieving what needs to be done). I will have to look up some more monsters from Magic. I love their hydras, which actually seem like better D&D hydras than D&D hydras (can't see the body through all the heads and necks), but I haven't looked at many beyond them. [/QUOTE]
