[NCF Based] Heretics
Heretic (CREATURE_278)
Upon Alaric's death, conscious about Biara's betrayal, some Inquisitors and Zealots came back to Elrath's Church for their penitence, but many of them also fled in shame. They were easy preys for Urgash who converted them and honored them by letting them become a part of his army. They called themselves Heretics and bring the power of Light magic to their new allies.

The thing I don't like about these new neutrals is that everyone is overpowering them with their favorite abilities.
Honestly, I wouldn't play a game in which I would get one of these imba creeps at a mine and have to restart because of that.
Make them cool looking, give them interesting abilities, but at least nerf their stats...

Okrane, its just your choice which of them you play with, and of course not all are overpowered.

Yeah, I know... but next someone is gonna make a map with them, and will install them to play the map, and then get annoyed afterwards.
Some decent balancing is just what I'm asking. In this particular case, does he really have to gave 14 initiative?! I mean, omg, these are stronger than Inquisitors damage and spell wise if you take into account the init, they're pretty much a weaker lvl 6

Stat-wise, I think it's an ok creature, not too overpowered, I just forgot to remove the "No melee penalty" before releasing it. My bad. Doing the update currently.
EDIT : Update done, masterpost edited ^^

good job. it looks really cool. one note tho, your icon doesn't really match the creature itself.

hey, i did the icon. here it is.
i tried to make it look like the actual creature as much as possible. i did orange background because the flame was really dull against the black. i also changed the alpha so it displays himself and his flame only. so there will be a brown/whatever background for everything.

yeah, i thought of that too. besides, you wouldn't be able to tell which side he is on in combat since it is all covered in that green/red smoke. and i wonder where the fire on his head went from the first pic. anyway, i really like your heretic. it is really cool. and now i know why you said you struggled with the icon so much. the inferno sign on his forehead is so hard to make small and non-pixelized!
