I have selected some spells that might help him avoid taking so much damage *crosses fingers*The Bow is has Elf Bane (+1 bonus equivalent so +2 price mod).I'll have whatever the other hobgblins are riding. The Dire Wolf in the SDR?DIRE WOLFLarge Animal Hit Dice: 6d8+18 (45 hp) | Initiative: +2 | Speed: 50 ft. (10 squares) | Armor Class: 14 (–1 size, +2 Dex, +3 natural), touch 11, flat-footed 12 | Base Attack/Grapple: +4/+15 Attack: Bite +11 melee (1d8+10) Full Attack: Bite +11 melee (1d8+10) Space/Reach: 10 ft./5 ft. | Special Attacks: Trip | Special Qualities: Low-light vision, scent | Saves: Fort +8, Ref +7, Will +6 | Abilities: Str 25, Dex 15, Con 17, Int 2, Wis 12, Cha 10 | Skills: Hide +0, Listen +7, Move Silently +4, Spot +7, Survival +2* | Feats: Alertness, Run, TrackB, Weapon Focus (bite) | Challenge Rating: 3  |Alignment: Always neutral | Advancement: 7–18 HD (Large) Dire wolves are efficient pack hunters that will kill anything they can catch. Dire wolves are mottled gray or black, about 9 feet long and weighing some 800 pounds.Trip (Ex): A dire wolf that hits with a bite attack can attempt to trip its opponent (+11 check modifier) as a free action without making a touch attack or provoking an attack of opportunity. If the attempt fails, the opponent cannot react to trip the dire wolf.Skills: A dire wolf has a +2 racial bonus on Hide, Listen, Move Silently, and Spot checks.*It also has a +4 racial bonus on Survival checks when tracking by scent.Its only CR3. Are the other hobgoblins also? I'll leave it as is if they are. I'll just assume he lost his mount and snagged another from a dead rider.I didn't take Leadership as I was having enough problems getting my little brain around this character. If I did go down that path, I would probably take a Worg or some other creature.I'll keep the heavy mace. Not sure why, just a gut thing. But I'll take a Machaera as a back up (on the Dire Wolf).</blockquote>
