[QUOTE="MarauderX, post: 910902, member: 9990"] I was just reminded of a campaign that began with the original D&D module 'Nights Dark Terror' (B10?). I upped the BBEG to be a Rakshasa that would alter self to spy and mislead the party, as well as steal from them. They all thought it was pretty rat-bastardly when they finally defeated him (it's an epic module) and found all of the props the BBEG had to the different costumes. One of them was a drunken gnome merchant that they had saved and who the PCs told everything to when he would ask. It was just funny listening to them explain to the BBEG exactly what they were up to, sometimes bragging about the whole thing and what they were going to do next, and sure enough there was a trap waiting for them as the Rakshasa was always one step ahead. I think the BBEG escaped about 4 times, frustrating the PCs, but the first two times it was for the party's own good as the Rakshasa could've TPKed the shredded party. It would use up magic items like crazy (wands, potions and such), which one player kept saying 'that could have been ours!' And they had always thought the fur left behind in the BBEG lairs was from a hairy familiar. [/QUOTE]
