Help me make a Thriller encounter

Feb 04, 2009 5:45:02 I want to make a zombie enounter based off Michal Jacksons Thriller.

I figure using minions for the zombies, and have a special power that prevents damage to the "controller" (MJ) while he has any minions up. MJ will be making Cha vs Will attacks to dominate the PC's, which get's them to join in the dance.

Any other thought's or ideas?

Start the encounter by having the leader suddenly change into a dancing undead, and play the music in the background. I like the idea of MJ resisting damage while he has followers up.

Yes i have, it's where i'm blatantly stealing the idea from

I think i'm going to have it like this

MJ
Speed 4
Controler XP 125

In the grove
+4 vs Will
Target is dominated (save ends)

Redirect damage
Whenever MJ takes damage, he may redirect 20 of it to an ally or dominated PC within 20 squares. This damage may not be reduced.

Synchronised Dance
All allies have the same initiative as MJ and move in unison.

MJ's minion
Speed 4
Minion XP 25

+4 vs AC
4 damage, and the target's will defense is reduced by 2 untill end of the next turn

MJ's minions may only move in a choreographed pattern.

MJ:

Rhythm of unlife
Minor action:
Rechage 5,6
MJ creates an MJ minion within 5 squares.
Special: recharge on 3, and 4 if bloodied, MJ cannot have more then 10 minions.

MJ's minion
Pull of the music
Range 40
+2 vs Will
Target is pulled 1

Else it would just be to easy to out range him with a speed of 4.

Note that while this may be alot of abilities, the only damage being done is by minions, dominated PC's and by redirection. It'll also be a long fight.
