Does anyone know if stats for Turrosh Mak ever been published in 3rd edition? I'd like to use him as a villain in my campaign, but I'm pressed for and hoping to avoid having to build a High Level NPC from scratch, since he probably won't be as potent if I rush it together.

I think Ftr16 is a bit unimaginative a conversion for his 1E stats (where multiclassing worked differently).

Duicarthan converted him to epic levels (Rog7/Ftr8/Asn8) here: http://www.greyhawkonline.com/duicarthan/npcz/turrosh.html

The attributes and equipment are a bit over the top imho though. I'd probably peg him somewhere in between. You could let him stay at 3E official CL 16, but give him another build. Ftr4/Rog4/Asn8 for example.

The problem with the Assassin prestige class is that it has spellcasting in 3e, which makes it very different from the 1E Assassin class. A 1E Assassin is probably best modeled with 1 or 2 Fighter levels lots of Rogue levels and only optionally with a few Assassin levels.

Yeah I think I set my baseline at level 12 for 591 CY based on the fact that he was 12th level in Slavers. The spell-casting and Fg16 'official' build led me to Fg9, Rog1, Asn2 but really his levels should depend on pc levels if they are likely to conflict. You could make up a feat like 'Thrall of the Earth Dragon' and give him a prestige class that might be more reflective of the abilities you want to give him as the ruler of the Orcish hordes.
