A quick, fun boss fight. Plain and simple. Might be hard. Might be funny.
All 5e Wizards material allowed, including UA.
Point buy.
Starting wealth: 5,000 gp plus ldlO x 250 gp,
two uncommon magic items,
normal starting equipment
There may be one enemy or multiple. Encounter's total XP will be equivalent to CR 18. I'll roll randomly for number of opponents, identity, etc but will not tell you ahead of time. We'll pick up in media res with the party about to enter into the final chamber of some adventure.
What have you got for this? XD I anticipate starting round 0 (right before entering the boss's chambers) some time tomorrow and finishing up approximately one week from then.
I'm game. I'll kick together a character and get it posted sometime today.
Cool. This'll be fun.

Hey devious. I'm somewhat surprised that not as many people think this sounds as fun as I do. If we get 4, I'll run it then. If not, do you two want to do a quick fight with a two-man team?
I'm not afraid.
Sorry this took longer than I thought it would. I've got a mystic mostly done; I'll post him later tonight.
Sounds good. Two level 16 characters. By my calculations on Kobold Fight Club, a CR 12 encounter is hard but not deadly so that's what I'll prep.

Cool. Gameplay will be up in a second here.
Cool. Alias up.
Gameplay's up for you guys to take your round 0 actions.
Nice. What's the ruling on having longer-term buffs and things up? Like, 10 min, 1 hr, or 8 hr duration spells/abilities?
1 hr and up is fine.
Probably going to run another fight if an additional player(s) want to join. Invite a friend, if you wish.
Seems interesting, I can throw something together in a bit if ya plan on doing another fight.
Looks like we will. So far have a fighter and a mystic.
I'd be down to build something up. It'll take me a day or so to write up a PC, so if someone else sneaks in before I can finish, that's ok.
@bookrat, if you submit a little later, I'd probably allow 5 PCs. Don't need backstory but feel free to make one and RP it. This is really just a very superficial boss fight for some fast fun.
I’m gonna hop in on this too.
Let's see your builds and start a fight. :)
FYI, I'm considering running a 5e published adventure. If you're interested in that, let me know here.
I haven't even had the time to start thinking about a PC yet. Was super busy last night; trying to cook dinner, give the kids baths, clean out the fish tanks, and trying to pick up the house (before giving up and deciding to do it tonight instead).
I have company coming over Sunday, and I need to clean the house before then. Plus I want to take the kids up the mountain tomorrow.
So I don't think I'll have a PC ready is a reasonable amount of time. Especially not one of that level.
Thanks for the opportunity, but go ahead and get started. I'll slowly work on a PC and try to be ready the next time. :)
No problem. See you around the boards.
Still fine tuning and filling in blanks. Sorry. The profile will be up this evening.
Here we go, sorry it took so long.
Great. Waiting for Vrog's warlock and a possible 4th. If we don't get a 4th in a bit, we'll go ahead and do another fight.
Here is Vrog's Warlock.
All right. Let's run with it. If we get a 4th in a day or two, they'll probably still be able to act in the first round.
