Combat sequence

Layered on top of the module's own combat AI, which still picks targets and positioning. The fight below moves through real hit-point-gated phases; every save DC and attack bonus computes from the stat block above at runtime.

I

Force Bolt

Above 66% hp

A simple bolt of raw force, precise and unhurried.

II

Ricochet Barrage

Every 3rd round, 66%-33% hp

The bolt hits its target - and if that leaves them under half their own health, it ricochets on to whoever's next, and can leap again if that second hit lands just as hard. How far it travels is decided by the damage itself, not by any fixed count.

III

Hellball

Once, below 25% hp

His granted Epic Spell pools every missile he's ever loosed into one blast, then a haste that carries him through whatever's left.

Why these numbers

CR 19 is set against Amberton's own real ambient ceiling, not auto-computed from level alone - a genuine Wizard 9 / ForceMissileMage 10 build at 19 total levels.

Hit points (120) follow this project's own average-hit-dice convention, and every save/attack bonus derives from the ability scores above at runtime - nothing here is hardcoded past the phase gates themselves.

How it's wired

Boss-flagged (bypasses the drop-rate roll, two loot-generation passes) and gated to a single spawn - only one Camdon Ashvale is ever up in Amberton at a time.

Ashvale's Stormglass Focus

Camdon Ashvale's cracked force-missile focus. A plot artifact that hums with chained lightning. amb2_cam_art
