Merlinzak

Merlinzak is an Evil Wizard the party encountered in the Shaar that would later become their primary adversary.

Appearance and abilites
Merlinzak is known as 'the liar' to the victims of his exploits and is posessed of some infamy. Though he makes heavy uses of disguises and often impersonates others to achieve his ends, he has shown his true appearance to the party on at least two occasions, and during her captivity Lia Nightbreeze came to know his true appearance. He is certainly a human, and apparently is given to eccentric facial hair. It has been suggested his mustache and beard could be described as a Fu Man Chu. At last check he can usually be seen wearing black silk with embroidered silver stars, moons, and skulls.

Mechanics
Merlinzak has casted numerous 7th-level spells such as Mass Flesh to Salt. He is not thought to have a familiar, and regularly casts spells from all seven schools of magic and is thus thought to be a generalist. His spells are very difficult to resist, regardless of scool, so he is judged to have an Intelligence score beween 28 and 30, after adjusted for a headband of intellect and an ioun stone.

Tactics
Lying stiff Master of the "I'm fucking dead" technique
