Attacks and abilities

The Drow Archmage is a tougher version of the Drow Mage, sporting a red robe instead of a blue one, and possessing all of their spells along with a few of his own. His Dark Aurora spell will give target crits a 25-point poison, and he can open inverted Vortex Gates to summon lesser Drow Mages to assist him. Collectively, they can easily overpower an ill-prepared party. Unlike the Drow Mages, who only attack with an array of spells, he attacks with a Staff of Power occasionally.
