Sepulchrave II
Legend
I had a question for Sepulchrave, though... I'm guessing you house rulled that Vorpal swords can sever a silver cord like a Githyanki silver sword? It looks like the gith may not be in your cosmoligy, for one thing (we've seen both the astral and limbo and no gith, though both are just a lot of wasted space anyway). Likewise I'm guessing that a simple mind blank won't protect against this, unlike a `yanki sword?
Yep. I've always played vorpal as being able to sever the silver cord of astrally projecting creatures. Keeps 'em on their toes. I haven't ruled out including the gith at some future stage (the advantage of having multiple true cosmologies), although the same could be said for any creature which hasn't made an appearance in the campaign.

On an unrelated but important note, if you haven't read this thread here then you really should.
Destan's story hour is quite superb, and he has recently published his campaign setting, Valus, which I've been lucky enough to sneak preview.
In his story hour, Ryan evokes a feeling which is unique and insightful: his characters are subtle and complex, his descriptions, evocative, and his narrative compelling. In Valus, Ryan's eye for detail in creating a self-consistent world is nothing short of inspirational. Many familiar tropes are given a new and unexpected twist, and appear fresh to the jaded eye: this is the art of fine campaign milieu design.
