We’re just about done with the Pre-Searing bestiary. Today we’ve got the first half of the charr. Some people might find the charr shaman is pretty badly under-CR’d, and he kind of is. His CR reflects the fact that he is a pushover if you encounter him alone, but typically you’ll find him in a group with a couple of other charr, and he is a Hell of a force multiplier for them. GMs be advised.
