So, my PCs just finished book two, and Nazheena got away. I would like to make her a recurring villain; however, the way the adventure path is constructed, I would like it to make sense that she turns up in these places. Knowing her mother is in the Hut the entire time (or at least has access through the AP), I thought this was the "head cannon" for me as the GM.
But any specific advice on when/how to add her to the following adventures?
Thanks.
in maiden mother crone, I did put a group of Iriseni camping at the base of the statues, trying to get in but met their fate when the party found them. Nazheena could be leading them, trying to prove her value to Elvanna's eyes.
in frozen star, I did put a simulactrum of Elvanna in the room with the final boss dragon. As a kind of Wyrmtongue, counseiling him. You could do it with Nazheena, escaping through a portal when the party enters the room.
In final module, in the fourth chapter, there is a squadron of iriseni that is found dead in the basement, you could tweak it a bit so they are close to die, but made a kind of little fort for a last stand.
Like it, thanks.
