The whole photograph-my-battle-mat thing is alright, but isn't very pretty and doesn't contain a lot of visual information.<BR/><BR/>You'll be fine using whatever map you come up with, honestly. The one thing I can suggest is making the rooms larger. Increase dimensions and try to figure out where potential choke points might be. Minimize those. They can be tactically interesting, but no one likes long, narrow corridors.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17817454535103324280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3053578970687646.post-1989379302477483562009-01-18T04:34:00.000-08:002009-01-18T04:34:00.000-08:00Map would be most appreciated!Map would be most appreciated!Antiquated Toryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08727187247287268014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3053578970687646.post-77246680745037002452008-11-19T01:55:00.000-08:002008-11-19T01:55:00.000-08:00Lyrie's stat block has had a couple of minor corre...Lyrie's stat block has had a couple of minor corrections made to it.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17817454535103324280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3053578970687646.post-71875527213725945312008-11-11T12:22:00.000-08:002008-11-11T12:22:00.000-08:00Sure.

When an arcane-powered character (any character whose powers are called spells) casts a spell and starts picking targets for that spell, Lyrie can immediately make an attack against the spellcaster's Will defense. If she is successful, Lyrie selects the targets for the spell instead of the original spellcaster. She also absorbs a small portion of the other spellcaster's power, gaining a +2 bonus to attack until the end of her next turn.<BR/><BR/>The idea is that Lyrie will use Cunning Manipulation to turn one of the party's most powerful spells back on them.<BR/><BR/>I did just notice a couple small fixes I need to make to her statblock, though.
