| Notes |
Before Combat Given time to prepare, Myra casts freedom of movement and protection from good. If she is aware of intruders approaching, she uses her master’s illusionability to make herself and the cult look like pitiful, starving refugees to lure intruders into complacency.
During Combat Myra avoids melee and debilitates opponents with chaos hammer, confusion, unholy blight, and channel negative energy. She relies on the cultists to stay between her and the PCs.
Morale If Myra is reduced to half her hit points or fewer, she tries to bargain for her life and the lives of her followers. She offers what she believes the PCs are after—the Clavis Somnus—by hoisting the key aloft and saying, “Just take the key! It opens the door we locked behind them!” If this gambit fails, Myra fights until killed.
Combat Gear potions of cure serious wounds (2);
Other Gear breastplate, mwk sickle, Clavis Somnus (see page 33), cloak of resistance +10 (added), headband of inspired wisdom +2 (added), silver dust (worth 25 gp), 52 gp
This wickedly curved sickle is cast in the form of a segmented spider’s leg. It has the same statistics as a normal sickle. The leatherwrapped handle contains a hollow recess that can hold a single dose of poison. Filling the reservoir is a full-round action. Once filled, the reservoir keeps the blade saturated and viable for up to 2 hours. The first successful attack made with the spider-leg sickle during this time administers and expends the dose of poison. Mog-Lathar’s deacons carry masterwork versions of these weapons. The cult uses blue whinnis poison, and within the radius of the dreamstone’s effects the unconsciousness effect may trigger lucid dreaming.
Does not need to eat, drink, or breathe; and does not suffer ill effects from extreme heat or cold.
Special Attacks:
channel negative energy 5/day (3d6 damage to all within 30' radius, 1 location only, 'Free' willpower roll for half damage)

Artful dodger: You possess fast reflexes and gain 1 extra Action Point, which may only be used to Parry or Evade. In addition, you may use the Evade skill to dodge a melee attack without falling prone. Against a ranged attack, you only end up prone if you fail the roll.
At will:master’s illusion (8 rounds/DAY)
You instantly change the appearance of the subjects and then maintain that appearance for the spell’s duration. You can make the subjects appear to be anything you wish. The subjects look, feel, and smell just like the creatures the spell makes them resemble.
Spell-Like Abilities (Both 8/day) copycat (8 rounds), touch of evil (4 round)
Copycat: You can create an illusory double of yourself as an action. This double functions as a single mirror image, and lasts for a number of rounds equal to 1+ 2x your cleric level, or until the illusory duplicate is dispelled or destroyed. You can have no more than one copycat at a time.
Touch of evil (You can cause a creature to suffer the effects of Fever, as an unarmed attack. This ability lasts for a number of rounds equal to your cleric rank (minimum 1). You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + 1/6th POW)
scythe of evil (4 rounds, 1/day)
An unholy weapon is imbued with unholy power. This power makes the weapon evil-aligned and thus bypasses the corresponding damage reduction. It deals an extra 2d6 points of damage against all creatures of good alignment. It bestows one permanent negative level on any good creature attempting to wield it. The negative level remains as long as the weapon is in hand and disappears when the weapon is no longer wielded. This negative level cannot be overcome in any way (including restoration spells) while the weapon is wielded.
