So check this out.
I just finished statting up the big bad end boss of "Legacy of Fire." As I did, I realized that this stat block (a CR 17 wish-fueled menace) is very likely to be the LAST 3.5 stat block I ever have to build/develop. It's all PF RPG statblocks from here on out.
Made me a little teary-eyed, it did.

How long until you realize you missed someone somewhere? :D

I tip my hat to the man who wrote the BEST. 3X. STATBLOCK. EVER!!!
(And the best NPC to ever appear in an issue of Dungeon, imo).
James knows which sexy hyena-like priestess I'm referring to ;)
Here's to you making my players have nightmares with the inevitable BEST. PATHFINDER. STATBLOCK. EVER!!! some day.

Any chance for letting us know the name of the creature you statted? Just so that we would know looking at it... or maybe add some side bar in the product?

I don't want to spoil anything... but the creature was the big bad end boss and final villain of the Legacy of Fire Adventure Path in Pathfinder #24. There won't be a sidebar about it. There'll be a 2-page foreword about it!

Actually, assuming about 8 years per edition, in twenty years time we might be seeing version 3.5 of the PFRPG, and James Jacobs will be looking at 3.5 stat blocks through the reading glasses perched on the end of his nose....
He's intelligent and works in an industry where erudition is important; how can you even begin to think he would go for contact lenses instead??? ;)
