It's been a while since I made this guy for my first DMing encounter that ended up never happening, so this is all from memory.
Name: Umaro, reference to Final Fantasy VI playable character of the same name. Half Ogre, half white dragon (immune to cold), (voluntarily contracted) were polar bear (white hair covers the white scales so that it takes a high spot check to see the white scales and identify him as a half white dragon). No Class levels, all monster HD levels, all beat stick. 53 str, 14 dex 25 con, 18 int, 10 wis, 11 char.
He has a pet named Ultros, reference to Final Fantasy VI boss of the same name. Giant octopus, straight out of MM, nothing special.
There was a small cult worshiping Umaro in the near by town (enough worshipers so that he had the divine ability to have perfect control over his shape as a lycanthrope, I just didn't want to deal with that aspect of the character!)
Gather information DCs:
10: Its man bear pig. Now I must go warn the others, EXCELSIOR!
15: Dont walk on the lake.
20: He is a magically created experiment gone wrong, Owlbear, giant bat and frost wolf. The Owlbear is Immune to fire, but vulnerable to cold. Giant bat give him wings and flight, frost wolf gives him high intelligence and a frost breath weapon.
25: It's man bear pig. Now I must go warn the others, EXCELSIOR!
30: He is half Ogre Half White Dragon. He was studying the world, looking for the perfect magic, or beast, or something, to increase his power so he could adequately defend himself from the coming war. (war was about to break out in that campaign) He learned of the were polar bear and it fit him in so many ways, including the white fur covering up his white scales. So he began a hunt for one and voluntarily contracted lycanthropy.
The encounter was intended to go:
The PCs travel up the snowed in road leading to a plateau near the mountain peak, Umaro is standing at the top, throwing ninja stars (they are ninja stars with the brutal throw feat, your argument is invalid) at the PCs. As soon as they get into melee, Umaro promptly flies across the frozen lake and shouts insults at them and taunts them. When as many of them as possible are on the frozen lake, Ultros bursts through the ice and grapples as many as he can and pulls them underwater. Umaro just belts out a deep and hearty laugh while they struggle. Once Ultros is reduced to a set hit points, it drops everyone and jets out of there, or Ulros is killed, Umaro wades in and, as the were polar bear, can use the run action in water, has an advantage over the PCs in water.
