Question about miniatures for a specific monster in the Adventure Path.

[Sardel]

This is a question for those who have played through the complete Adventure Path or run it.

I have a question about how many miniatures of a certain type of monster that I'll need.

Spoiler:

How many Yithian miniatures do you need? From what I saw, you won't ever encounter more than one at a time. Did I miss something or are they rarely used in their true form?

Books 1, 2, 3: no encounters.
Book 4: only encountered in a dream.
Book 5: Maximum required = 1 or 3. Kaklatath the Seeded, although the corpses of many other yithians can be found nearby in the stasis chambers. There are three graven guardians as well, which are carved into the shape of idealized yithians.
Book 6: no encounters.

So, really, you'd need 3, if only to represent the graven guardians, but only 1 is ever actually encountered in its "true form".

Thank you for the information, it's greatly appreciated.
