Wicedien, the high witch

An aura of great power surrounds this strong woman.

Information

• Area: The City of Salburg
• Status: Aggressive
• Alignment: Neutral
• Affected By: Sanctuary, Iceshield, Shockshield, Fireshield

Description

Wisps of grey hair poke from beneath the black cowl worn by the High Witch.
Although her face shows signs of age, her eyes remain clear and bright, the
wisdom contained with them, obvious. Blood stains her clothes and hands from
the many sacrifices performed daily to invoke the great power. As she bows her
head for a brief moment, a forked tongue emerges to quickly lick a drop of 
fresh blood.

Directions

• RoD: See the City of Salburg map. She is at the north end of the witch village.

Directions: 
From entrance of area, 2e, 2 ne, 2n, (wait until daytime), 4n, 2w, falcon sight, open secret, n, e, falcon sight, open secret, all north to the altar, this is 
the prep room. 
Vampire should bloodlet which brings a key that has an annoying tendency to be purge - and the same vamp can't get it again without some unknown amount of log 
time. 
unlock and open secret 
Wicedien is 1 north 

People needed: 
To fight: 
3 thieves (1500+ 115+) 
(Nasr warriors work, but not as well as thieves) 

To get there: 
1 vamp (preferable with bloodlet adepted) 
1 thief (falcon sight) 
Others: 
Spelldowners are nice  

Spells: 
Tankset 
Three elemental shields 

Attacks: 
HEAVY blast of lightning (hits random person) 
"lacerate" spell, hits only tank, around 200 hp damage 
"Holding her hand high, a sphere of brilliant light explodes from the witch's hand." =250HP (exact) through sanc seems to always land, a hit-all-in-room prog 
(non fighting people as well -> spell downers need to have shields and be careful) 
piercing 50-150 hp each round 
More damaging then you'd expect it to me. 

IP check: 
Guessing IP1, haven't tested (she has breath a attack)  

Notes: 
Zyla Plate and Ice Girth highly recommended 
She is a hard 3 person kill, not as hard as Black Rose but pretty hard. 
The fight can get long, with Nasrs warriors at least shockshield will run out. 
Her room is tunneld, 4 + mob 

Things to test/checkout: 
DT down from the altar, open grate, down. 
Why do the key purge? 
Is there log time or RL time needed for the vamp to get the key again? 
Checked (log time) 
Can you disarm her? 
How well does Fathomer do here? 
What is the tunneling, is it 4 or 5 + mob? (its either 4 or 5 I forgot)
