[QUOTE="Lord Weh, post: 4267405, member: 60550"] I've been planning my 4E campaign for a while now, and I got to thinking that a 'cameo' by an old adversary to my group would probably go down well and highlight how fun the 4E combat system can be. Many, many years ago I did a 3E campaign with a 'Psionic' villain, he'd float about, protect himself with objects from the environment and generally try and outmaneuver the PC's whilst they try and throw everything they got at him. If I'm being honest however, I never really had him statted or anything. He was just pure on-the-spot fabrication. I bought the Psionic Handbook, thinking I could stat him up, but after reading through it seemed making him exactly how I imagined him would be pretty tough, so chose instead to ad-lib him as I needed. But I thought it would be fun to try and capture his spirit in a working form, by statting him for a 4E adventure. Here's my attempt at him. I should preface this with the fact that I've not got the books yet, I'm just extrapolating this from what I've seen and heard thus far, so I'm not sure how balanced this is atm, until Friday comes anyway!
