Yeah...that put them in their place. The battle took 3.5 hours and they only won because I designed structural weaknesses in the cavern they were fighting in to deal massive damage to the dragon if they positioned it under the weakness.

Nice, and excellent use of area for your encounter! Thanks for the update! I really appreciate people who update! Now, Meister, about your thing...

Also, can anyone help me find an undead moon? It's too big to be a battle station!On a slightly more serious note: I'm looking for a book, or rather, more specifically two creatures in said book. I own the book (bought it at Barnes and Noble in Miami), but, because of the way the movers put our stuff when we moved into our house, I can't find it. Unfortunately, I can't recall the exact title, but it's something like "Perilous Foes" or "Ultimate Monsters" or somesuch over-the-top thing and bills itself as campaign and world-ending monsters/events. The specific two items I'm looking for are this kind of undead moon thing, and a living asteroid "mother" creature with poisonous positive energy. What I'm looking for, if anyone has it, are names, rough histories, and the gist of what they are, all found within its description, but none of which I have available right now. Other things that are in the book (for the purpose of jogging memory, if you guys have seen it):
~ a moon filled with negative energy causing the undead to run rampant!
~ a mad "mother" astroid, now made with real corrupt positive energy!
~ some monster or another that basically regrows from his horn (starts with a "Z", I think)
~ Kysuss, the demigod of worms
~ some other stuff I can't remember

EDIT: Thanks 7Days! I now have one of the two I was looking for: Atropus, possibly the first Atropal! Rockin'!
EDIT 2: Thanks Yumil, too! I now have the other I was looking for: Ragnorra, the mother of monsters! Very rockin'! You guys are awesome!
