I switched Iuz out with an ancient wyrm and my resident uber villain. As others have mentioned, the PCs pretty much sit around and watch the supervillain wrestling match.By far the most memorable moment was the giant hand and the giant eyeball bad guys.  One of our PCs was a paladin/monk (don't ask) and was something of a holy martial artist.  He had all kinds of throws from Oriental Adventures and when the big hand guy attacked him with his...hand attack, I guess, the monk used Great Throw on the hand bad guy with a powerful shove, doing enough damage to kill it in one shot.And what famous words the paladin/monk utter that to this day I still remember more than any other part of the scenario, that cracked us up for a good ten minutes laughing hysterically?"HANDS OFF!"<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
