I hope what follows will be a series of short posts that deal with some idea seeds for Urban Monsters in Arcana Evolved. I wanted to start with huminoid shaped monsteers that you might finding oddly living in a city in a AE setting like the Diamond Throne. I had hopped to do 10 but you see there was this HEROES party and welll....... you got 4.
The Ur-dan (Male Alabast Magister 7/mage priest 10) A dangerous man who seeks out hidden knowledge formally obsessed with gaining immortality, which he gained a year ago, he is currently obsessed with a way to return Kellast Minos and his people to their rightful home world. He seeks greater power, the remnants of the phase heart, and dramojh records and memories. Many have died in his service many have retired rich beyond their dreams.
Foundrite (female Balthrok Oathsworn 3rd) this young she-beast was freed of the hatred and propaganda of her people by a champion of peace and knight of the diamond, she foreswore her people and took up an oath of peace, she serves the city as their most capable constable at the order of the diamond throne.
Hu-ryn (male Blade Breaker) is the giantish name given to the body guard of a strange giant in the local bazaar who sells odds and ends, who never gives his name, sells at prices that most would consider a loss. Secret: Hu-ryn is serving a powerful leader of the nightwalkers. He is treated as a great friend by the nightwalkers and many are those who call him friend.
Bergarda (female Blade Troll runethane 10) is brilliant weaponsmith beyond human ability or condition as all her blades are masterpieces (innate +2 enhancement bonus to attack 500 gp). She also takes great care in working of blades for long periods of time to create blades that are extensions of their owners. Any of her blades that are passed on or wielded by a non-heir apparent of their original owners suffer from hex runes (curses).

Kastagorn the Grey, a wolf totem warrior4/greenbond2, who has set himself up as a tribal shaman and chief for a band of goblins. Slowly teaching them tactics and trap construction, this band of "wolf-spiders" as they call themselves are becoming less of a nuisance and more of a threat.
Unfortunatly, you did not set up the Goblin chief as a URBAN encounter. otherwise I could have used it :)
Hey, Mr. Fan of AE With Too Much Time On His Hands :) -- any chance you or any of your loyal followers can help with a very basic character-building question? This is the first time I've played AE and I'm wondering about the feat "Rapid Strike" -- whether it's worth it or not, in general.
I apologize for lowering the level of discourse to a lame min-maxing'ish question, but I thought I'd ask anyway :).
Thanks!
(FYI, playing a Sibeccai fighter, mostly racial levels so far, about to hit 5th level . . . would apply it to my lovely bite.)
yes I believe it would be worth it, in genral
# of attacks is > bonus to attacks > bonus to damage.
in the future if you have a min maxing question that is not relevant to the blog article try
