Yea...I couldn't quite beat the mysterious Valinor creature, so I'll save him for another part of the game when I've leveled a bit more. Reading this guy's file -- I think the BG1 team was going to use him for Greywolf, but they needed to tone it down a bit so they created Greywolf instead of Valinor [Valinor was equipped with the +2 Longsword - I deactivated it and activated the +1 Longsword that was there also instead.]

I only replace unscripted monsters so that it won't interfere with the game, so I left Peter of the North alone in the druid's cave. A good example would be to place Valinor (a dangerous fighter) next to a mage or cleric enemy that was just using a basic guard (no-name) for a guard [a mage in the Cloakwood Mines would be one spot -- but that might be yet too early for this guy!] It certainly makes for uber challenge.

Another good example:
I replaced almost all Baby Wyverns with Air Aspects in the Cloakwood Wyvern area. I left two Baby Wyverns in the cave along with two Greater Wyverns and another single Air Aspect at the back. My team's tanks were down to there last drops of blood, but I beat them with a bit of buffing. Whew!
