The Dragon Lich also requires mapspots placed around the map with its args containing TIDs of possible destinations, making up to 5 destinations possible from each position. The choice of next destination is random. Note that the Dragon Lich's first destination is the first thing that it can locate that has a TID identical to its own.

10200 Korax

TIDs: 245: Korax's mapthing
249: Teleport destination (MapSpots)
Scripts: 249: Run when korax health falls below half
250-254: Randomly run by korax as commands
255: Run upon death of korax
