Thanks James! Just noticed two more things today: Kayltanya should have an extra offhand attack at +12 due to her Greater Two-Weapon
Fighting feat and the DCs for the False Ileosa's enchantment spells should be increased by one (Spell Focus has been taken into account but not Greater Spell Focus).


Thanks Ninja! So yeah, I guess the queen of AC gets even more! O_o
Something else I noticed today: In the description for the Staff of the Slain, it mentions that Kazavon and Kolwydden's personalities are dominant at different times of day but not when. I presume that Kazavon is dominant at night and Kolwydden is dominant during the day?


Thanks for the help GG!

It was neat to see the hit point calculation formula and I was surprised how close my random guess of 72 was. As for the whole Togomor's stoneskin thing, I think you mistook what I was saying. I wasn't referring to the list of spells prepared but rather the list of spells that are in his spellbook provided in the treasure section of his room. It states that the spellbooks contain 2d6 spells of every level of your choice plus a short list of spells that he is guaranteed to have in his books to make the adventure make sense. This list includes contingency, permanency, all the spells he made permanent (arcane sight, darkvision, see invisibility and tongues) and all the spells necessary to make an akaruzug. It was THIS list that I was suggesting stoneskin be added to. And about the +2 profane bonus to AC. Originally I thought the same as you about the +2 insight bonus from the crown simply being wrongly catagorized but now I wonder if maybe the profane bonus is from her devil-bound template? I'll have to check the Advanced Bestiary on that one!


A few questions about Crown of Fangs. . .

1)The Gray Maidens' hp of 89 seems to be calculated as a 10th level fighter (10d10 + 30) rather than their actual level of 8. Any ideas of a fair hp total for an 8th level fighter with Con 16? I never did figure out what formula is used to calculate hp totals in books and modules. It always seems to be slightly above average so I was thinking maybe the Grays should have about 72?

2)This is nitpicking but I think stoneskin should be included in the list of spells definitely in Togomor's spellbook, as he has a contingency for it in effect. Togomor is also likely the source of the stoneskin spell in Ileosa's ring of spell storing. Sure some scrolls could have been used for these spells but hey, using Togomor provides a convenient caster level. Speaking of caster levels, any ideas on the CL of the heal spell in Ileosa's ring of spell storing?

3)I hate to give Ileosa even MORE AC but it seems the +2 insight bonus from her constant foresight spell (due to the Crown of Fangs) is not included. I'm not sure if the +2 insight bonus to her Reflex save is included either. Also, it specifically states in both the Crown's description and the entry for foresight that the subject is unable to be caught surprised. So the bit of text in B20's description about PCs surprising Ileosa is kind of moot.

4)What about the Crown's spell-like abilities? They don't appear in Ileosa's stat block so I assume the Crown takes its own turn to use its spells like Karzoug's intelligent glaive? I would think that it would at least be mirror imaging its wearer and throwing some dominate persons around.

5)A common tactic for both the simulacrums and Ileosa herself is to combine bardic music suggestions with attack spells via Harmonic Spell. But the PHB description of this bard ability says that the target of the suggestion must already be fascinated from the fascinate bardic music ability. Furthermore, the description of fascinate states that the ability is impossible to use in combat or near a combat. How does this tactic of Ileosa's work? Maybe I'm reading things wrong cause bards really aren't my field of expertise ;)

6)This isn't a question about the Crown of Fangs adventure but is related to Pathfinder #12. In the article on the Harrow deck of Many Things, one of the cards (The Trumpet I think) gives a PC the ability to summon an outsider of their alignment and up to their HD in CR once per day. How long does this summoned creature stick around? One encounter? An hour? The whole day?

7)One last minor question. How do the Gray Maidens have +13 to hit with their longswords? They have BAB +8, Str 14 (+2), Weapon Focus (+1), and the swords are +1 weapons. So I only count a +12 bonus. Am I missing something?
