[QUOTE="Zaukrie, post: 4760908, member: 2057"] One of my players wanted to switch his dragonborn wizard to a deva invoker. They are in a campaign set about 10 years after the godswar (spellplague+ in my version) in the Forgotten Realms. I set it in that time period for two reasons: 1. The godswar isn't over, and it gives me chances to involve the PCs if they want to be. 2. With two panteons fighting, and the death of several gods actually happening on the planet, it gives me the excuse of new powers appearing, and new races. Each side brought races and powers with them never before seen. The planes are now much closer together. Devas were unknown, anyone dealing with spirits was generally regarded as a faker, no such thing as invokers and avengers. So, yesterday, we played for the first time in some time. They went through a portal (the campaign is supposed to be like stargate, with magical portals instead of ships), and the wizard came out looking like a deva. One player role played it something like you'd expect, not completely trusting him. I've told the player that he may have trouble recalling his past experiences (we are playing him like he is the same person, but different). The eladrin of Feywild referred to him as a reborn, and didn't seem happy to see him/it. (of course, this is before I see this article, we'll see what I think after reading it). so, in my world, the Deva suddenly have appeared. No one knows who/what they are, or their purpose, not even them yet. Invokers and avengers are beginning to appear, and the shamans and druids are actually able to work with spirits now. We'll see where this goes (I have some outiline ideas, but we'll see which way the players take it), but it will be interesting when they return to their military base with a completely different being...
