What is with these /pathetic/ hiding places for phylacteries? If you are a lich you are automatically also a genius and a extremely accomplished wizard. You also have no need for air and a really extreme tolerance towards adverse conditions. Hide the damm thing in an airless chamber that can...

Lots of pointless laws that must simply be obeyed provoke and promote chaotic behavior: It is one of the malaises that strike orderly societies, but gods of law are presumeably too clueful to start the ball rolling by doing it in their own commandments.- Suggestion: The commandments themselves...
