I say "WOOOOHOOOOO!!!"
Then I ask, would you recommend 1 or 2 industrial sized bottles of Motrin/Tylenol/Ibuprofen @ 800mg dosage?

Congratulations, Joshua on making Top 8!!! On to the next round. Goodluck!

Question: Are you a Magic (the Gathering) player?
This character reminds me very much of a character from that game although it's a "She" (Mirri, anyone?).
Anyways, between this and Gulga, I had to take 4 tablets of Tylenol to keep having headaches while reading their stat blocks. I had to continually reread this over and over while referencing the judges and voters posts. Overall, a wonderful reworking of your original idea. Much like the other 3 entries I voted for, you took advantage of this round to carefully and meticulously hone your character. Good job! Hope to see you next round.

I'm a sucker for classes that can make constructs. I'm forever fascinated with robots that do their masters bidding (replay Hellboy 2 scene: Hellboy and company against an army of robots...AWESOME!).
My 3rd pick which is again one of those that got reworked and turned out beautifully (albeit with some errors). Again, I'm going by the judges and voters since I am a newb when it comes down to statistics. Great work and hope to see you next round.

I have read and re-read (and on few entries, several times after that) all entries, and one thing I could definitely say for this one, it sticks to my head like white on rice. Even while at work, Malgana seems to float within my memory much like her severed-albeit-floating head. She reminds me of a very gory Brothers Grimm fairy tale, and when I say very gory, I meant not for children under the age of 18 and of the faint of heart specially those who had a heart transplant or pacemakers installed.
Another one of those entries that made good use of this round and turned their so-so character into so-damn-good character. Nice job on reworking your villain. I'm not much into stats but I do read and reference what the judges and voters say. Well done and hope to see you next round.

Top 17 was too long a list for me to go through so I missed 2 votes. This round is only half as long so I am able to read them all. Without further ado, here is my first pick.
Dear Mr. Blazej,
When I suggested for you to polish your next entry, I didn't mean for you to blind me with it.
It seems that you took notes about the R2 comments and made this character into someone one can relate to and despise with delight. You're one of the few entries that took advantage of this round and made his character more plausible. In short, you tightened your character and it shows! Short, sweet and to the point.
IMHO, a low level villain may lack the bluster of a high level villain but if done right, they will be remembered and loved or hated (they are bad guys/gals after all) by all players including the DM, and isn't that what counts? I'd rather remember the time I laughed so hard when the villain died ironically from a potion he drank to escape rather than the time the DM got frustrated looking at a 3 page stat block just to figure out something mundane, causing him to put off the adventure for next time.
Well done, sir! Hoping to see you next round.

Memo to Paizo Merchandise Dept.:
One word: P-L-U-S-H-I-E !!!

Now on to the entry: L-O-V-E I-T!
If Gulga isn't what it is, I'd give it A BIG WARM HUG!!!
Exceptionally well planned, written and executed. I agree with everyone else's comments. There's not much else to say that hasn't been said already.

Verdict: On to next round!

A strong albeit unfinished villain. This one has the "There's-something-not-quite-right-but-I-couldn't-put-my-finger-on-it" vibe, until it's too late. A villain that's all about vanity and self importance. He will never be satisfied with just "15 minutes of fame", it's all or nothing! A valid and workable character. I do agree about dropping the level a bit to mirror the characters desperation.
Over-all, nicely done, though my recommendation to the creator for his next submissions is to break out the shoe polish, rag and buff your entry until it shines!

Side Note: A scenario,
After being defeated, Derinogen makes a hasty retreat! Unfortunately, he drops a pair of suspiciously looking gloves...hmmm, could they be...nah! /DM Grins...

Verdict: Adequate enough for next round.
