Being that she's a half-dragon, I would think she would be a dracolich rather than just a lich.

Expectional NPC's are the exception that confirms the rule, same goes for D'Vol.

Also, don't Dracolich need an OTHER dragon corpse to reanimate? It would kinda ruin the flavor has she would have another body and thus would lose her mark.

Personally I made Vol a Necromancer 16/Master specialist4 for campaign reasons...

The useless mark would follow her, naturally. It IS tied to the being, after all.


I never really wrote her up, but I sketched out a level 20 true necromancer, cast spells as a 16th level cleric & wizard & was a CR 24..., had a CL of 24-ish for necromancy spells.

Thus, still in keeping with the "16th level wizard" bit... with a few extras.

IMC I'm going to ressurect Erandis in an elf body. :)

IT would be cool to see Erandis step out of the forest with a female elf's body, and suddenly kill the one who ressurrected her.

Just wondering, but does the Evolved mean?? As in half-green dragon elf Evolved Lich necromancer.

"Evolved" is a creature template that can be applied to intelligent undead. It is found in Libris Mortis.

I thought it was a template, but didn't knowe where to find it. Thnx for the clarification Danfor:)

The CR says 32, but that isn't calculating properly in my head, what am I missing?:thinks:

Maybe I'm wrong (I don't have LM in front of me) but isn't the Evolved template applied to normally non-intelligent undead (zombies, skeletons, etc)? Just a thought.

What CR adjustment does Evolved add?
snakebliskan

04-19-07, 12:41 PM
it adds a +1 CR each time you apply the template!
TheAnthroDM

04-20-07, 01:23 AM
How many times was the template applied? :eek:
snakebliskan

04-20-07, 06:18 AM
12 times out of 24 possible!

O.O WHY?! Wouldn't more I dunno... Class levels be better?

wasnt she supposed to have the Mark of Death? The last one to have it?

Do you have stats on this that you are using?

She's not a dracolich, he's a half-dragon lich. I don't think I'd add so many evolved. I think she'd have more normal class levels than that.

And a CR32 seems a bit high for an Eberron nailed NPC. That makes her at almost Demon Prince or Devil Lord. I don't think she's QUITE that powerful.

Shes undead so her dragon mark has no power!... so I never made the mark of death ..... although it might be cool to have one surface!

The reason she isnt out kicking butt and taking over the world is that if word of her got out every dragon and elf would hunt her down and obliterate her!
even with the evolved template she's no match for that kind of power! and if you look at the template it really doesnt make her that much more powerfull... so she can cast a few spells as spell like abilities... and has a higher ac she doesnt get any hitdice from the template nor any spell progression and her caster lvl is like only 13 lvls +( half dragon temp, and lich temp)= 20... also shes been messing around eberron for the last 2400 years as a lich... shes that powerfull!
