Hey Wil, I just wanted to check in and let you know I really liked the Twisted Run. I'm sorry I didn't call out your adventure the way I have been with the recent FR content in Dungeon, but since someone else beat me to posting info on the issue I didn't want to make a redundant thread.

The adventure does fit well as a somewhat quick drop into a night's gaming for high level characters, and I agree with what you said on the Paizo forums about high level characters needing to pull a "Conan" on a bunch of lower level adversaries. Personally though, I am thinking of weaving this adventure and its prequel in my campaign as a running theme for the Meillikki worshiping rogue druid in the group. Specifically, I may hint at anth-Malar when they first visit the Silver Marches, so that I can use him as a running "boogey man" type charactes.

Do you have any more ideas on anth-Malar's background, other exploits that he may have perpetrated for the Beast Lord, or the like.

Also, if you could have written up any more background material for the higher level NPCs, such as the Dwarven wizard and rangers, would you have, or did you have any backstory in mind besides the overall story of the dwarven settlers.

Finally, any more backstory on the Azer sorcerer?

Just wondering, and I love picking the brains of you creative types.

Thanks for all the hard work!

Draegloth were intended to have SR, at least when they were first introduced. There's always the chance that has changed since then, of course, but there's no clarification stating outright that it has as of yet.

The following is copied from MONSTERFAQ1302003.pdf (Sage Advice compilation file that includes Monsters of Faeraun), which should still be available to download. I spaced the info out for ease of reading, and bolded the parts most relevant to this topic.



What does the term "drow abilities" refer to in the
draegloth's (from Monsters of Faerūn) special qualities
entry? Does a draegloth get spell resistance?

It refers to the special qualities of drow, which are listed in
the drow entry in the FORGOTTEN REALMS Campaign Setting
book (and in the Monster Manual). These include the
following:

Spell-Like Abilities: 1/day dancing lights, darkness, and
faerie fire. These abilities are as the spells cast by a sorcerer
of the drow's character level.

Darkvision up to 120 feet.

Spell resistance 11 + class level.

+2 racial bonus on Will saves against spells and spell-like
abilities.

Light Blindness (Ex): Abrupt exposure to bright light (such
as sunlight or a daylight spell) blinds drow for 1 round. In
addition, they take a -1 circumstance penalty on all attack
rolls, saves, and checks while operating in bright light.

Proficient with longsword, rapier, longbow, composite
longbow, shortbow, and composite shortbow, regardless of
character class.

Immunity to magic sleep spells and effects.
+2 racial bonus on Will saves against Enchantment spells
or effects.

+2 racial bonus on Search, Spot, and Listen checks. A
drow who merely passes within 5 feet of a secret or
concealed door is entitled to a Search check as though
actively looking for it.

Note that a draegloth with class levels has Spell Resistance
11, despite its number of Hit Dice.
