[QUOTE="Ion, post: 2948624, member: 16028"] So, I've been looking through the MM, and I've realised that some of the creatures I usually play as mindless killing machines and what not are actually pretty smart. My current group of PCs is a little undead focused (Necromancer, Ranger's favored enemy, etc.) so I'm looking to throw some more dead guys at them. They have just arrived at "Rue Castle", the capital city of their Kingdom. I don't really have much of a plot yet, but I'm wondering if "Undead infultrating the city" is a possible angle to take. I think the ultimate big bad should be a Dread Wraith (LE, Int 17, old and malevolent, seems fitting). Maybe he's been apearing to key clerics around the city and getting them to hide some skelletons and what not in their closets. Ghasts and Ghouls are smart enough to follow orders. Maybe the recent disease spreading through the poor quarter is Ghould Fever to help bolster the number of undead soldiers in the city. I'm just in the "toss ideas around" stage so far. What do you guys think? [/QUOTE]
