Sepulchrave II
Legend
Some questions.
How do people see the Ainur? I've been musing about them, wondering if applying a Divine Rank is the best way to go. Even the most powerful of the Valar (say, Varda or Manwe) are unlikely to be above demigod status.
How does this scheme look?
Divine Rank 0: Lesser Maiar. Aiwendil (=Radagast), Maybe Balrogs (?).
Divine Rank 1: Osse, Uinen, Olorin (=Gandalf), Curumo (=Saruman), Melian, Arien and Tilion. Gothmog (?). Tom Bombadil (???).
Divine Rank 2: Powerful Maiar: Eonwe and Ilmare. Maybe Sauron (?). Ungoliant (???).
Divine Rank 3: The Valar of lesser status: Vaire, Tulkas, Lorien, Este, Vana, Nessa
Divine Rank 4: The Aratar except Manwe and Varda: Ulmo, Yavanna, Aule, Mandos, Nienna, Orome.
Divine Rank 5: Manwe and Varda. And Melkor.
Obviously, the abilities presented in DDg need tweaking, but they might provide a useful base.
Would Luthien be Divine Rank 0, or would you just apply the Half-Celestial template to her and call it good?
How about Goldberry? I'd like to give her a rank 0. What do you think?
I'm thinking about the possibilities offered by a First Age campaign. It would seriously rock. Epic Level rules. Deities and Demigods. Hmm.
