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

Opening Stance

Above 66% hp

Fights straightforwardly as a real Undead 6, testing the party's own line before pressing further.

II

Bearing Down

66%-33% hp

Presses the advantage harder, trading caution for tempo.

III

Last Stand

Once, below 33% hp

Commits everything left rather than falling with anything held in reserve.

Why these numbers

CR 4 is set against Beleghost Estates's own real ambient ceiling, not auto-computed from level alone - a genuine Undead 6 build at 6 total levels.

Hit points (42) 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 Maren Duvall is ever up in Beleghost Estates at a time.
