Ha, this was pretty comical. After getting Clair's warning, I buffed out my party with all sorts of potions and spells (Heroism, Strength, Oil of Speed, Free Movement, Resist Fear, Defensive Harmony, Protection from Evil, etc.), equipped their best weapons, got out magical arrows, prepped scrolls, readied Oils of Fiery Burning...

Walked in, got the speech, and BOOM, the Demon Knight dispels every single freakin' buff from all but one character. And his magic resistance protected him from some special arrow damage and such.

He did major damage to Xan and Rasaad with fireballs, used a Power Word: Stun on Rasaad, so Jaheira had to stop fighting and heal them. Fortunately, that left my three archers still in the fight and relatively healthy, and armed with Arrows of Biting.

And then, somehow, he was down. The only things that seemed to affect him were a Greater Malaison to reduce his saving throws, and a few lucky hits from Arrows of Biting that gave him lots of residual poisoning.

I'm halfway tempted to go back and do the fight again, WITHOUT all the crazy buffing, since it all got wiped out anyway.
