Modifying details of set creatures

[DoctorC]

Hi
When I create an encounter, why can't I drag a creature onto the encounter and then unlock it so that I can modify its hit points, etc? When I hover the mouse over the lock, it tells me it is read only and will not let me change it??
Thanks

Create a copy of the creature first in the NPC list and modify the copy.

Thanks - I did not know you could do that.

How do I create an encounter with something akin to a player character e.g., a 4th level cleric - is this the same thing - grab a claric then change it stats after copying it. If so, which modules need to be open from the library?

I don't know this ruleset so I don't know where you might find an NPC Cleric; but yes it would be the same procedure.
