BishopofB&W Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 The Fantasy Hero Grimoire has a spell to create a wight, but I couldn't find stats for it in the Bestiary. Am I looking in the right place? Also, CKC describes Takofanes as a sere lich. Is this something unique to the Turakian Age? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Long Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 The wight is in Monsters, Minions, And Marauders, which should be on your gamestore shelf any ol' day now. On the second point, look up "sere" in your dictionary. It's just an adjective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oberon Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 What? Sere - The entire sequence of ecological communities successively occupying an area from the initial stage to the climax. Oh, you meant the other meaning Sere - Withered; dry oberon Edit: Damn, beaten to the punch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Liaden Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 Originally posted by BishopofB&W I never heard of a lich that wasn't withered and dry. Well, there was that recent film version of "The Mummy." IIRC he was described as being kind of "juicy." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Long Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 I never heard of a lich that wasn't withered and dry. Take a gander at the Clark Ashton Smith/Lin Carter short story "The Stairs In The Crypt" for a lich that definitely isn't sere -- at least not by story's end.
