[QUOTE="SHARK, post: 2354733, member: 1131"] Greetings! In one of my campaigns, the player characters are playing epic-level characters of 30th level or so, with a few characters above that, and several cohorts that are 28th level. The players have made some friends at an ancient secluded elven fortress and temple, which also features a Lammasu, and several Storm Giants, located in a magical forest. The players stayed there for over a month, training, resting, and consulting the Lammasu and the elves. The players met a strange man, who appears to be an old, though powerful, barbarian warrior, and a man of wisdom and great devotion and piety to the god Ulric. After enjoying a feast, and speaking with the strange barbarian, the players learned of an ancient citadel high up in the mountains, about a two-week ride away, which is occupied by evil monsters and guards an ancient treasure. Thus, the players are traveling in search of this ancient citadel. The journey along the way brings the players into contact with an evil character party that has established their own castle in the area, as well as several smaller citadels and border forts. The evil character party is composed as follows: 1. Chen Tsau; m Human; Fighter 30/Kensai 10 2. Zhanlor; m Human/Half Far Spawn; Wizard 20/Master Transmogrifist 10/Fleshwarper 10 3. Nimmarthu; m Human/Half Giant (Fire); Fighter 20/Legendary Dreadnought 20 4. Zeredorn; m High Elf; Fighter 20/Cleric 10/Thrall of Orcus 10 5. Kei Han; f Human; Rogue 20/Rake 10/Fighter 10 6. Rhaenathil; f High Elf; Druid 40 7. Korranna; f Human; Cleric 30/Thrall of Orcus 10 8. Jalnar; m Human; Barbarian 20/Fighter 20 9. Chou Bei; m Human; Monk 40 10. Lord Julius; m Human; Cavalier 20/Rogue 10/Knight of Infamy 10 What kind of servants, troops, or allies should these characters have? What kind of defenses would you suggest they have of their citadel, and the surrounding area? What kind of cohorts do you think they should have? I appreciate your thoughts on the matter at hand. A variety of creative, interesting responses would be especially helpful. I have been swallowed up with classes for weeks, with exams and so on, and have simply not had time to give these deployments the thought that I know they deserve, and a game is due this weekend, so I thought I would consult my friends here at EN World.
