-*Their [[Banishment]] can be defeated with high [[willpower]], but you might need a level of fire resistance to defend against [[Fireball]]s too. The best defense in this case is a good offense, since any character alive this late in the game should have sufficient ranged damage capabilities to take them out in a few turns.
