Well I hope you enjoy! Steel Eye of the Infernal the creation forge Colossal Red Dragon Hit die 400d12 + 12000 (16,800) Size: Colossal++ Speed: 70ft, fly 230ft clumsy Str 85 + 37 Dex 50 + 20 Con 71 + 30 Int 66 + 28 Wis 67 + 28 Cha 66 + 28 BA: +400/+395/+390/+385 Fort = 240 + 20 + 30 = 290 Ref = 240 + 20 + 20 = 280 Will = 240 + 20 + 28 = 288 Breath Weapon: 70ft cone fire elemental 192d10 save DC (240) Word of apocalypse: will save 210 + charisma modifier or die. Successful save still deals 440d8 sonic damage 160,000ft. radius DR 133/- DR 20/magic Immune to mind affecting spells, stunning, paralysis, disease, death by massive damage, ability drain, acid, cold, electricity, and fire.

Mithral Icesilver 11-21-04, 02:58 PM	So, he'd have access to ... 190/2... 95th level spells, assuming he'd taken Improved Spell Capacity 85 times. *whistles* And he'd still have room for ... 134-85 ... 49 more feats. Kinda impractical. Lessee, all known metamagic feats added to one spell adds ... how many levels? So, take that many levels, and that should be the maximum number that he has of Improved Spell Capacity. You aren't seriously considering sending your players up against this thing, are you? Since their gods are about 60th-80th level, depending on the god?
feargrant 11-21-04, 03:16 PM	No he would have access to epic spells. Remeber spells do not go past 10th level. He casts spells a 190th level caster so saves vs his spells are 190 + 10 + spell level + any additional spell modifiers + his charisma modifier. And yes I do intend for them to fight this at one point. Fun part is this is the weak one, the others are a prismatic and Adamantine.
Derren S. 11-21-04, 03:22 PM	Caster level has nothing to do with save DCs. The DCs would still be 10+spell level+cha modifier. The dragon can make good use of the highen spell feat though (and arcane strike).
feargrant 11-21-04, 03:30 PM	Sorry for that. I must be thinking of something else with that. Well I still have a lot of work to put into this guy and his bretheren. By the way this is a template dragon.
SinisterSeraph 11-21-04, 03:35 PM	Wouldn't it be easier to just use critters this big as a plot device? I mean you basically stated out Ragnarok! Do your players actually have the capacity to stand before this thing?
feargrant 11-21-04, 03:39 PM	Hence the name of the template added is Apocalyptic
Edymnion 11-21-04, 04:12 PM	Wouldn't it be easier to just use critters this big as a plot device? I mean you basically stated out Ragnarok! Do your players actually have the capacity to stand before this thing?Agreed. This thing has essentially ceased to be a monster, or even a god, and become a plot device. Unless you actually happen to be running an Epic level game with lvl 50-60 PCs, this guy is just so horribly overpowered that his stats become meaningless. I mean, really, his stat block looks like something out of Final Fantasy, not D&D. If you just want to say "He's big, bad, and he can make you go dead in one hit", then just do that. There's no point in statting out something his powerful unless your PCs stand a very good chance of actually being able to go several rounds with him.
feargrant 11-21-04, 04:45 PM	I want to end the campaign with a big bang. Most of the campaign is the characters trying to stop the revival of it and the two others. They can stop it from being revived. If this helps anyone I do own the Munchkin's Player Handbook...
