What Kind Of D&D Villain Would Queen Bavmorda Be?

[LibraryOgre]

Now that I think of it, wasnt it supposed to send the child to a place where she could never return? Is there such a place in a D&D setting? Its not like it would be very effective if any wizard with 3rd level spells could match or counter it. Also, mass polymorph is a 9th level spell in 5e, and even that can only hit like 10 targets at a time. We might be talking epic level since she took down an entire army at once, minus two wizards able to counterspell to protect themselves.

Imprision is a 9th level Wizard spell in AD&D, which is what I tend to think of. It locks you in an indetectable prison far beneath the surface.

Mass Polymorph is an 8th level wizard spell in AD&D (Wizard's Spell Compendium, Vol 2), but only covers 12 man-sized creatures per casting.
