[QUOTE="Asha'man, post: 5063937, member: 52424"] This is in the wrong forum, should be in "Plots and Places." Great idea, though. In fact, I'd like to explore it. Who made the list and why? How do the PCs know it's genuine? Should they be trying to find other ways to avert the threat than killing whoever's name pops up? Or maybe it works both ways? So that you can shape time to make someone a threat to the universe by writing their name on the list? (Probably in some special way, not just with a stick of charcoal) All types of destruction may not be bad, either... What if the name of a Solar shows up, whom Knowledge: religion reveals to be the one thought by a powerful Good religion to usher in the End of Days and establish the Kingdom of Heaven? As for names: I assume you're in a homebrew setting, so campaign-spesific characters like Larloch or Iuz are off limits. That makes this a little harder. But here are a few: Eli Tomorast, for starters. If you use the Planescape planes, Ely Cromlich. (Factol of the Doomguard.) Lashonna. (Yes, the one from AOW. Looks like a harmless elf socialite. Except, she's a vampire. Except, she's a vampiric silver dragon and in the midst of reviving the Cult of Kyuss.) Sarrukh, if you don't mind being a little meta. (Yes, the species. It's an ancient and near-extinct one, so there shouldn't be many of them, just enough for an adventure or two. As long as they exist, there exists the possibility that Pun-Pun will one day be created.) Acererak. (Tomb of horrors!) Ashardalon (from Bastion of Broken Souls) Eventually, you *must* have the name of a PC, or several, show up on the list. Probably late in the campaign, or at the very end if you don't have anything else planned for that. See how they deal with that! I might have more later. [/QUOTE]
