Don't count Cattie Brie out I won't say more for fear of spoiling The Ghost King. She gained a few levels in wizarding so should she be multiclass, or as some of you might have seen through Insider, a hybrid?
Well the cool thing about monsters and NPCs in 4e is we really dont have to worry about classes or multi-classing or whatever, Just do her up and slap some ranger and wiazard powers on there.
I survived Section 4 and all I got was this lousy sig
Off-topic and going downhill from there

Well if she was 16ish level she would only be a few levels away from Drizzt which I find improbable when Bruenor is a hand ful. That's why I put her closer to the Dwarf King. Alas, I do need to read the latest book.
And yes, if I stated her for 4e I would put her as a Ranger/Wizard around 16-18 depending on what I read in The Ghost King.

In 4e, NPCs base their saves off of their stats. You break up the stats into 3 sections STR/CON, DEX/INT, and WIS/CHA. To get a creature's base ability, I believe you add 12 + 1/2 level. So for example, a 2nd level creature would have an average stat of 13. The only exception is the stat they base thier main attacks off of. That is 16 + 1/2 level. So a 8th level creature based on melee attacks using STR should have a STR score of 20.
I'm not entirely sure that's correct since I'm AFB right now but you get the gist. When I do get home, I'll edit the post for the correct info.
As for Cattie-brie, I'd make her around level 16-18 and Bruenor at least 18-20. She would be artillery for sure, throwing in alot of Ranger-style attacks using her famous bow (can't remember how to spell the name) and maybe one or two wizard attacks (I'm thinking magic missile or scorching burst as at-will powers). I'd also throw in a cool, teleportation power from her arcane studies.
For Bruenor, I'd say Elite Soldier (leader). Let him have a power or two that lets him attack multipul targets and definitly Cleave. I'd even give him a Warlord power or two that allows him to boost his allies attacks, damage, or give extra hit points. He's just that damn inspirational, lol.
When I get some time away from work, I'll look into statting both out.
As a side note, does anyone know how to post the 4e monster stat blocks onto these posts? I'd love to just throw it up there from my Monster Builder instead of writing it all out.

You should be able to just copy and paste, There is HTML code for tables but I havnt a clue on any of that.

I'll have to check it out when I get home. I really hate this new 4pm - 12am shift. It sucks!
I do have some cool monsters I'd like to post too, for example my Calzone Golem. I mean, who wouldn't want to fight a walking, steaming, pastry filled with piping hot tomato sauce that belches garlic gas?!?!

ok copy image from the adventure tools directly to the forum page doesn't work. Copy image as rich text only makes it look really stupid. Copy image to say...microsoft word then to the forum doens't work either. I'm stumped.

Kids and their Epic Uber Powered Munkins. I remember back when Drizzit was a 10th level Drow Ranger in FR #5 The Savage Frontier.  Regis was a 5th level Thief, Wulgar was a 6th level Barbarian, and Bruenor was a 8th level fighter!  No stats for Cattie in FR #5...  I will now step off of my soap-box...

And a Cattie-Brie? I believe I have seen some stats somwhere but not 4e... lvl 16 Ranger?
She wouldn't be that High I don't think. She was stated somewhere in candlekeep, officially un-official type, if that makes any sense. Not to mention in the most resent Salvatore books she's taken a few levels in wizarding. Just saying... 4e is going to be difficult on her. Not that you have to worry, she did't make through that century jump I'm sure.
If I had to spit ball Bruenor for 4e I'd say a level 17 fighter or such. I'd gladly throw something together but I have forgotten how to find the saves for everybody. It's the Modifier part that is throwing me. Diffian or Keveras if you wouldn't mind the refresher...?
she had stats on the wizards site..... dont know if they are still here though.
a mask everyone has at least two of, one they wear in public and another they wear in private.....
