The Battle of All Alignments

[Gansk]

It's hard to say how it would fare against four 20th level characters, but it does have some 1/month abilities that are pretty sick.

Its trick in the battle was to power word stun its opponent, then use the free rounds to gate in its buddies.

You might want to dig up the old thread started by Infiniti2000, who played the t'uen-rin. I think he had some suggestions on how to streamline it a bit. It is not a very efficient sorceror.

Overall, I would have almost as many reservations with introducing this monster in a campaign as I do with introducing the tarrasque while still calling it CR 20.

Six months later, Neutral Good has finally fallen to Neutral Evil.

Chaotic Good has two monsters left, trying to survive against four Lawful Evil monsters.

The winner joins the semifinalists, who are:

Neutral Evil (8 monsters left)
Chaotic Neutral (7 monsters left)
Lawful Good (2 monsters left)

Things should start speeding up from here on out!

Are dragons mainly winning? I'm just curious since they are generally under-CR'ed.

 

[Gansk]

Yes - if I were to do this again, I would bump the CR of all dragons up by 1.

 

[Shade]

Probably a good idea.

Chaotic Good pulled off the upset, leaving them with only their CR 21 general.

The general is designed to be a dragon killer, and he may pull off another upset even though he will face 8 Neutral Evil monsters in the semifinal.

The other semifinal pits 2 Lawful Good dragons against 7 Chaotic Neutral monsters.

Almost three years later - the battle is down to its last two monsters!

CG's Brass Dragon Wyrm vs. CN's Titan.

We are starting a mini-4e version of the Battle if anyone's interested. We will be using all the 4e statblocks that have been collected so far.

Interesting. I though for sure that evil would triumph!
