of 9.4 so about nine damage per challenge rating my benchmark is about seven which means the lich is now hitting good and hard which i think is good what i also like is it's a pretty slim stat block now this one doesn't suffer

quite as much from the spells being in the spellcasting block because you can run this lich and never look at any of the spells in the spellcasting block and it'll run just fine. But if you wanted to do something like power word kill or chain lightning or finger of death, you can always replace one of those. You can always replace it. Now the question is like,

you know power word kill can kill somebody with 100 hit points but you know the eldrick burst do 91 points so it's actually pretty close chain lightning is sort of the same way are you really getting a bitter bigger benefit from chain lightning than you are from elder doing three elder bursts that's kind of a question sometimes you might sometimes you don't but i don't unlike some of the other stat blocks in here i don't feel like this step like buried the lead in the spell casting blocks

There are other ones where the legendary abilities of the monsters say it can cast Guiding Bolt, like the Ancient Gold Dragon did. It could cast Guiding Bolt at level four as a legendary action. Now you're making me go look that up. So I really like the Lich. I hope you like the Lich. This is, I think, a really good version of the Lich.

And in my opinion, vastly improved over the Lich that was in the 2014 guide. And I think that this is a good representation of the kind of spell blocks that you're going to see certainly for higher CR monsters throughout you go. Not all of them are perfect. But I think it's really, I think it's a really good stat block. So there is your Lich stat block. Stay tuned.

In two weeks, we're going to dive crazy into it and look at the whole D&D 2025 Monster Manual. But I wanted to give you a little taste. And the little taste here is that Lich. Probably for the last couple of years, it's been really easy to fall into what I'm calling the zeitgeist of the tabletop role playing game community. What you're going to hear now is almost me talking to myself.

It's a little bit of self therapy going on right now. Because this is something I do all the time. If you're familiar with my show, if you're familiar with what I talk about, I'm talking about the RPG zeitgeist constantly. I'm adding to the RPG zeitgeist. I'm trying to steer it.
