(6 seconds pass in RL)  "OK, a nightmare appears and attacks the party.  Roll initiative after the surprise round."I'd never give it PC stats (32 points, in this case) -- they're heroic and well above average.  It'll get ~25 points.I like its stats for sheer superiority's sake.  Its Str is better than any character in the group, as is its Cha.  For the rest of the stats it's either tied or in second place to *one* other character, none of whom beat it in two stats.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />Oh, I like it!  I've added "greater endurance" to its SQ list.</blockquote>
