Special Qualities

 * Massive Damage Reduction (999/EPIC)
 * Immunity to all Elemental damage
 * Immunity to Magic (all magic, even Disintegrate)
 * Immunity to weapon procs
 * The damage reduction drops once she reaches 25% HP. Though she keeps some: 5 DR/Lawful for any difficulty)
 * Immunity to magic also drops, but not immunity to elemental damage, so wizards and sorcerers do not contribute much damage.
 * Disintegrate works - but her Fortitude save prevents it from dealing much damage.
