[QUOTE="Evilhalfling, post: 3973488, member: 16991"] Don't know if this helps but I created (never used) a pit fiend trapped in the body of an 8-yr old girl. Str 6, dx 12. I left most pit fiend powers, SR, DR, regen. Dropped the blasphemy to 1/day. This still left this creature a formidable foe. Cutting the con or AC too much made her a glass cannon, perhaps I haved both 169 hp, AC 25 (29 w/unholy aura) Mass hold person dc 27, power word stun, quickened fireball, fear aura. Meteor swarm1/day perhaps she had a dagger, but was more likely to loot helpless foes and teleport away. She was CR 13 if she wasn't willing to lay down destruction, perhaps cr 15 if she breaks out fire and meteors. I thing you have to reconsider the CR, and tone down the abilities that fall too far outside the target. I think a vrock screeching, dancing and spewing spores is iconic enough, and blaphsemy croaking wart covered humans works as well. Mariths might hestitate to posess a mortal, without thier natural form all the have is blade barrier and TK. Galbrazu have a larger bag of tricks - including true seeing, they might lose 2cr due to a toned down physical form. Have you considered making summon Dretch power a summon monster effect? while keeping the larger summon for some sort of possession ceremony? 11-24 dretches showing up for <2 minutes would be a useful tactic, and since they are already on the list for summon monster ....
