Azarr Kul and Company inside the Fane of Tiamat.
Final battle. I'm looking for feedback here.

The party is something like this.. although a few might be a level higher as they did just level up.

Ftr/Rog Roughly even split about 11th level
With a 9th level Wizard cohort
10th or llth rogue
With 8th level doppleganger cohort (he'll have his first class level if he did make 11th)
9th level Drow cleric
10th? fighter with 1 level rogue in there
10th level psychic warrior - although the player might not be there so this character wouldn't be.
10th or 11th scout
11th? wizard

So they're all around tenth or eleventh level.

The battle ground;

This is a round by round setup of what he might do. Suggestions?


Ofcourse the other baddies will be focusing on the party.

Questions:
1. Do you think this is way too much for the above party. They have wealth much higher than they should - For example, the party fighter has a +3 keen greatsword along with many bonus items. All of these they have picked off of baddies that had them before.

2. They have not fought the battle of brindol. Which will take place in two game days. What effect do you think the Aspect of Tiamat will have on that battle, if any?

3. In the fane of tiamat there are two minor artifacts dedicated to tiamat. What suggestions might you have for destroying said artifacts and repercussions?

Thanks in advance
