    Default [4e] Elder Evils

    Just went up, and its free.
    My main problem with these statistics are way to simple. I'd probably use them but add abilities to make them stronger.

    I agree. They feel neither very elder, nor very evil.

    A few of these aren't too bad, ie. the Aspects of Leviathan, Atropus, Ragnorra, etc.

    I'm spitefully pleased to see, after all that talk a few weeks ago, that they peak at about level 30. ;) (Admittedly, a couple are just aspects or greater aspects, but still.)

    To be fair, they're just stat-blocks, after all. How elder, and how evil they are, are mostly fluff and portrayal, and entirely in the hands of the DM.

    For some of them you need to consider that the PCs will likely have no chance to take an extended rest between encounters. I mean, if they do, the world ends.

    I love that the Aspects of Leviathan are around level 30. Basing this on other Aspect to real deal ratios, that puts the real Leviathan at a 38, 39 or 40 Solo, which is intense.

    I don't think you could defeat Leviathan. I mean, he encircles the world. It'd be like attacking the world itself.

    That would make it hard to miss, however.

    Attacking the world itself would be deadly as well as easy. Think about it, it's impossible to miss it and there's no way for it try and dodge or react to your assault - it's helpless. Get every sentient being on the planet to perform a simultaneous coup de grace on it!
