And that sucks really badly. And he doesn't actually DO anything all combat EXCEPT negate your abilities.So you end up with a boring NPC, a frustrating battle, and a feat that is far more useful to an NPC than a PC and usually doesn't work (because you have to be readying a counterspell action AND have a higher level spell of the appropriate school prepared).</blockquote>
