Aruxurathearvorelixen, Sacred Warder of Bahamut[/span]
Axiomatic Radiant Dragon

[attachmentid=117][attachmentid=118][attachmentid=119]

Aruxurathearvorelixen is Draconic and literally translates into "Beautiful Fire of the Platinum Deity". It is the name of one of the most powerful dragons in all the planes. Aruxurathearvorelixen,  an Axiomatic Radiant Dragon, is a paragon of law and good, serving as the personal consort and avenger of Bahamut, the Platinum Dragon. She holds herself and others to such extreme ideals that non-dragon paladins find themselves targets of her wrath as often as fiends spawned from the Lower Planes.

[span style=\'color:blue\']Combat


Breath Weapon (Su): Aruxurathearvorelixen can breath a line of magical force that does 300 damage.

Frightful Presence (Su): Variable DC 45-75, failed will save leaves creature frightened for 4d6 rounds. Due to Aruxurathearvorelixen's radiance, most creatures are unable to view her entire magnificence, reducing the effectivness of her frightful presence.

Partial Concealment (Su): 20% Concealment. Due to Aruxurathearvorelixen's radiance, it is difficult for creatures to directly target her with a melee or ranged attack.

Radiant Defense (Su): Striking Aruxurathearvorelixen with a weapon will call down Bahamut's wrath on the attacker and anyone nearby.

Damage Reduction (Su): Aruxurathearvorelixen has damage reduction 20/magic.

Hover/Crush Attack: Aruxurathearvorelixen has perfected a type of crush attack that sends out a shockwave damaging creatures in a much larger radius than a normal crush attack.

Immune to Fear: As a Sacred Warder of Bahamut Aruxurathearvorelixen is immune to all fear effects.

just a note on the dragon- when it should fall imediately after it reappears. it keeps  managing to squeaze in an attack before it falls and then it attacks before its actually gotten up.

He isn't "landing". he's smacking the ground with his entire body, so it is supposed to be like that.

i think the thunderous "landing" of a demi-god dragon would produce similar effects.

Opprotunity: When Bahamut's wrath is being delt, the dragon is flatfooted, therefore very valnerable.

Undead Hordes Unleashed![/span]
These undead creatures are almost always encountered in groups!

[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\']Petrified Zombie[/span][/span]
Undead

[attachmentid=122]

Ancient zombies that were never subjected to erroding environmental conditions can become as hard as stone over time. These slow but relentless creatures can almost be mistaken for stone golems if it weren't for their obvious intense hatred of anything living.

[span style=\'color:blue\']Combat[/span]

The Petrified Zombie is incapable of complex combat tactics and simply attacks the nearest foe with it's stone-like fists until it is destroyed.

[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\'][span style=\'color:blue\']Time Wight[/span]

Undead

[attachmentid=123]

"The time wight is a terrible undead creature with power over the fabric of time. Time wights appear much as the humanoid creatures they were in life, but with pale skin and glowing eyes. They wear tattered clothing from the era in which they lived, which may include the distant future." - Wizards of the Coast

[span style=\'color:blue\']Combat[/color]

More than one Time Wight is usually encountered since it is often accompanied by both future and past versions of itself.

Time Jump (Su): The Time Wight has a ruthless cunning and can use it's ability to manipulate time to appear instantly next to it's prey.

Time Blur (Su): 30% Concealment. A Time Wight constantly shifts through time and is never exactly where it appears to be. Even True Seeing can't overcome this displacement effect.

Supernatural Speed (Su): The Time Wight can move through time faster than normal creatures allowing it to move with super natural speed and attack swiftly with supernatural accuracy. This speed hinders the Time Wights ability to do damage however.

Fast Healing (Su): +10 Regeneration. The Time Wight can shift it's body backward through time to instantly remove some of the damage from a recent wound.

Axiomatic Radiant Dragon

AC: 104
AB: 107
HP: 11800

I'm in the middle of upgrading the AI for the dragon, Chosen of Cyric and Baelnorn Demilich. I am going to lower the dragon's concentration so that it is easier to taunt.

I suggest team strategies when fighting the dragon. Casters need to buff fighters with mind protecting spells so the fighters can get in close to taunt and attack. It wouldn't hurt to have a Bard in there cursing the dragon too.

It has also been said above: The dragon is extremely vulnerable when flat footed.

I have some tactics to slow the dragon in a melee fight . Only slowing him up since the dragon is nearly impossible to melee kill . Making a caster able to beat him up with some spells . Though that's really hard since that high hp and high dmg .

Creature Update!

I have upgraded the following creatures:

Axiomatic Radiant Dragon ("Aruxurathearvorelixen"): Changed the breath weapon impact VFX. The line of force for the breath weapon should show up now. Breath weapon is now used every 4 rounds. Dragon will no longer get stuck on placeable/tileset objects.

Baelnorn Demilich: Greatly improved caster AI. Spells now cast at the proper caster level (40). Metamagic now applied to some spells. Will now cast some epic spells.

Chosen of Cyric: No longer gets stuck on placeable/tileset objects. Has new "burrow" ability that it will sometimes use to approach it's target.

Petrified Zombie: A little bit smarter when choosing its target.


Have fun, I appreciate any feedback from casters who duel the Demilich. It can be summoned by wizards/sorc in Spell Hold the caster dueling grounds.

I am sure that you will not get a touch attack on him (400 out of that hp isnt a ton) and he is immune to Blinding.

The Demilich is an ongoing project, as I watch more casters duel it I can enhance it's AI. At this point it should be very predictable, but I will introduce more randomization and more complex tactics in the future.

As always, any suggestions are welcome.
