James Jacobs,

First, thanks again for all the great Demonomicon Articles and everything else for that matter! If their quality is any indicator I'm going to let my subscriptions continue into the online magazine versions (even though I desperately want print magazines...)

I've tried to make reliable versions of Iggwilv in the past for our campaigns based on all the sources I could find. Since Iggwilve was called a witch in several sources, witches in literature & D&D have summon spirits and have special relationships with them, and the original demonomicon had both magic-user & cleric spells - I made Iggwilv's primary class the WITCH. One of the earliest versions I made of her was based on the first edition witch from an old Dragon Magazine article that had its own spell list with magic-user & cleric spells. The highest level was the Queen of Witches who had powers that made sense for Iggwilv, like a greatly extended life-span.

Several versions of the open d20 witch have their own spell lists with both wizard & cleric spells and similar powers to the old first edition witch. Iggwilv's most complete history to date was in the "Return of the Eight" module in which she was specifically calle "The Witch of Perrenland".

So, is there any chance you guys will be making a finally revealed and much anticipated Iggwilv a D&D 3.5 Edition WITCH? It would be fantastic to have a 3.5 version of the Witch article presented with Iggwilv as the Queen of Witches!

I think of a lot of people this may be one of the most anticipated NPCs ever, so I think I can say we hope you guys do it justice. I'm afraid just another high-powered Wizard would be a disappointment.

Here's to hope. Looking forward to hearing some comments from officials and fans.

Thanks,
James

Hey all,

I think a lot of folks would like to see an Article about Iggwilv with her Stats, Goals, Cult, Minions, Realm, prestige classes, history, etc.!!! In Scale Mail of Dragon 357 Paizo replies the last issue will have another installment of the Demonomicon and the greatest D&D villains... With Iggwilv they would address both subjects at once, so will it happen? I sure hope so.

A summary of Iggwilv's history was give in the 2nd Ed. module Return of the Eight, but there were no stats beyond a 25+ level character... In addition the made her a necromancer...??? That was illogical according to everything written about her and there are certainly enough necromancers in the game. The is the pentultimate witch and demonologist so let us see what she really looks like??? Please? Please?

Thanks and Regards,
Malbeth
