		Pre-Battle Description
		You travel to Melvelous’ castle. It sits on top of the highest mountain in Cardhuntria, in a place befitting one of the finest nobles ever to grace this land. Outmatched and terrified, you assault the castle. By some minor miracle, you force your way into the castle hall, where you must now face the might of this renowned living legend. Bow before the might of Melvelous the Magnificent!
		Post-Battle Description
		You have achieved the unachievable! Melvelous’ beautiful corpse slumps to the flagstoned floor and… Shatters into thousands of mirror-like shards?! Alas, Melvelous has outwitted you with a magical double. He escapes your grasp with grace and ease and skips past you laughing, exiting through a secret door.
Hints
Keep a movement card in reserve for when Melvelous casts Stone Spikes; it's the most common card he has! If Melvelous has Defensiveness attached, make sure to run someone close to thwart his spellcasting! Find robes for your wizard that have Resistant Hide, which will make you immune to most of Melvelous' attacks!

Traplings	4
		Pre-Battle Description
		Behold Melvelous’ treasure room! Melvelous is sitting on a giant pile of coins and his visage is bathed in radiant gold. As you enter the room, the door slams shut. A number of large wooden chests start to move towards you! These are in fact deadly Traplings. Melvelous stands out of reach, laughing at your futile efforts.
		Post-Battle Description
		Just as you thought you had landed the killing blow, Melvelous casts Wish and Telport and escapes you. Again. Biting back tears of frustration and lamenting your incompetence you pursue him further into the castle.
Hints
Don't bunch up near Traplings, since they have both Fire Spray and Acid Spray in their decks.
