Yeah, so I faced her on the Material plane once. Very funny. Party of 8, all 19-21 levels with 1200 followers in my Holy Estates. One day everything was normal, the next we were just a big scorch mark on the face of the planet. Last time I tell the DM that nothing is tough, to bring something hard on.

It was obviously a live game, since otherwise you can't tell DM to do something

I think Caleb is father of all dragons: as dragons are pretty ugly....LOL!

------------------
In the foul darkness one figure will emerge to save the world from evil and despair.... Light flashes as his sword comes down, and thunder rolls through the sky when he points his sword up to heaven to signal his victory....People whisper his name as he walks by, evil tries to hide as they sense his presence nearby.... His name? Link......
