If you are looking at demon lords, you may wish to go the full patron route rather than the monster route.

Spellcasters in other editions/rpgs are not always the best match for DCC. You can keep them exactly as written, if you want, but there is more than a small chance that you will want to adjust their spells and/or abilities to (1) make them match the Appendix N vibe of DCC and/or (2) make them easier to run in DCC.serendipitous wrote: ↑Mon May 17, 2021 2:02 pmThanks for that link!

"(1) Watch Spellcasters: Remember the core rulebook says that NPCs need not play by the same rules as PCs. Even with that in mind, though, you will probably want to re-imagine any spellcasters in the original work."
Probably it is obvious, but I'm not sure quite what's being highlighted here. Maybe the one-of-a-kind / Appendix N flavor a DCC spellcaster ought to have?
Yes, very much. I'll be going over that explanation to parse it carefully & up my game. Many thanks!
