No friendly NPCs in this scenario. Some bad guys, but most are normal bestiary characters. Unlike all other scenarios there is no real end-of-level bosses in this scenario. CoB has Craggentooth, PtP Griloch, AoGM Lequtus and DtN the Hemorood, Lord Hecubus and Morbius the Demi Lich, but CitC none. But don't think it is any easier to finish it because of that...
My Comment: Loradan's rather tough, and so are the hundreds of guards he has for protection. Take him out with a spell if you can.

My Comment: A clone of the best of the AoGM undead warriors. His damage has been increased and he is no longer undead. Take him out as quickly as possible as he does huge damage.

My Comment: Not very hard to kill, but his fear chops might be a problem. And he and his minions surprise you. His necklace can be used in an encounter later on in the scenario.

My Comment: Slightly altered from the AoGM version. The problem with these guys is the cosmic blasts they cast all the time. Take them out quickly.
Name: Undead Mage
Where: All over the place, at least the first floor.
My Comment: Slightly altered from the AoGM version. When you face all three kinds of undead antagonists, concentrate on the spell casters, these guys are not as important to get rid of.

My Comment: These are really nasty. Try protecting your enchanter (place her so they can't reach her) and use a cloud kill to take them out. Their paralyzing bites will take you out faster than...

My Comment: Clone of the Fire Giant Chief in AoGM. He and a few friends of his will help you take out a large group of undead guys if you treat him well.
Equipment: Banded Armor +1, Helm of Pain -1 (Helm of Defense +2), Plate Gauntlets, Two-handed Sword +2
Comment: -
My Comment: These guys can take you out faster than you can say their name. If their fear chops don't get you, their death spells might. Protect your spell casters as they are your biggest hope. Remember that the spell blink can do a lot of good things if used correctly. And some of the better spells don't require vision...

My Comment: Hotted clone of the AoGM evil warrior. Lousy equipment for a level 13 character. Not very hard to beat but his company can get nasty.

My Comment: A true ranger. Extremely hotted clone of the AoGM evil ranger. He can be beaten rather easily. The problem is that he and his evil friends that all appear in the final battle of the game are cloned more than once. There is a total of 39 evil rangers, warriors, paladins and mages that surprise attack you. Be prepared for a tough time or die. Oh, why say so, you'll probably die anyway...
