Adversary Type

An adversary’s type represents the role they play in a conflict. When building encounters, utilizing a mix of types helps create a dynamic and engaging challenge. The adversary types are as follows:

• Bruisers are tough and deliver powerful attacks.
• Hordes are groups of identical creatures acting together as a single unit.
• Leaders command and summon other adversaries.
• Minions are easily dispatched but dangerous in numbers.
• Ranged are fragile in close encounters but can attack from a distance for high damage.
• Skulks maneuver and exploit opportunities to ambush opponents.
• Socials present unique challenges to overcome through conversation rather than combat.
• Solos present a formidable challenge to a whole party, with or without support.
• Standards are rank-and-file adversaries representative of their fictional group.
• Supports enhance their allies and disrupt their opponents.
