Naaghast Nightwing, The Bell Tower (Nightshade, Nightwing Pathfinder CR14 )
The bell tower of the abbey contains a creature of the darkest evil, Naaghast the Nightwing. The actual bell was destroyed in the battle for the abbey two centuries ago, now Naaghast uses the tower to survey the abbey grounds for creatures to destroy. The top of the tower will always be covered by deeper darkness.
Naagast will first create patches of deeper darkness to confuse the players as to where he is hidden, and start his attack with a confusion spell, followed by unholy blights. He will want to weaken the party before he has to attack hand to hand, trying to keep his position secret until the last possible moment. He has no qualms about attacking the PC’s while they are trying to dodge the animated Sphere in the courtyard.
