So I was reading the stat block on Vrood, and for the most part its pretty solid, now it may be just me but I think that one of the whispering ways high ranking members should have more then just a pair of gaint crawling hands to assist him. I was wondering if anyone else had thought of replacing them, and if so what? Perhaps a pair of plague skeletal champion warriors?
He's got the 8 skeleton archers from G5 giving him cover.
Also note that he flies around Feldgrau once the PCs try to enter melee with him. So pretty much anything from the city or the random monster table should be with him if he so choses to join them.
I gave him a gravestone golem from Libris Mortis as a linebacker. Basically, it has slay living instead of slow as a free action every 2 rounds. My PCs laid into it and took some damage but ultimately ground it into paste.
Pretty good way to start the fight. Used up some resources.
