Good question! At the moment, I don't think she exists. When the Great Wheel held sway, the Sea Mother ruled from her domain in the murky depths of the Elemental Plane of Water. So... elemental water is her realm, destruction is her lot, and hateful revenge on the gods of the surface is her...

And Kylar Stern, from The Way of Shadows (and probably its sequels, which I en't read). Who is A) definitely a heroic character, and B) very, very like 4e's Assassin class.

The shadar-kai are already taken. (kidding! please don't hurt me! or, worse, agree with me!)

More likely, if I've got my lore right. The piece of the Shard in the Ruby Rod was theirs once, and it calls to them. If the Abyss has a single mind (which it kind of does, in a nebulous long-scale way), "get it BACK" is the most clearly-defined goal it has beyond "EAT EVERYTHING".

Mm-hm. It's no longer the central driving conflict of the entire setting, but it does exist.

Clever! I've always liked the Kaorti.

It's a shame that not all of the monsters included in the book were converted--but I just like psurlons and the gloom golem. They're not exactly an Exemplars of Evil product, and I suppose their replacements work just as well. (Plus, it keeps from setting a 4e precedent regarding Psurlons...

I think you would have a much, much shorter thread--perhaps with no replies whatsoever--if you instead asked for people who do approve of this unreadable :):):):):):):):).

Yes, actually! Tomes (another kind of wizard implement, like staves or orbs, that debuted in Arcane Power) usually come with two thematically appropriate wizard powers that you can prepare (spellbook style) as long as you have that tome. Creating more of these would not be difficult. Second...

Oh, really? I don't suppose you'd like to cite any sources on that?

Actually, I'm pretty sure we did know about the former. Go take another look at your PHB2... :angel:

Ooh, that is clever! I would add that, in the fine tradition of Fighters everywhere, Karrnath completely botched its Will save. Hence the undead thing (which was mostly a Vol innovation, remember?)

I've got an incomplete one. Draconomicon: Ilthuviel's Blackened Heart (paragon, 16+) Blue Orb of Dragonkind (epic, 21+) Spear of Urrok the Brave (heroic, 6+) Unconquered Standard of Arkhosia (paragon, 11+) Dungeon Master's Guide: [INCOMPLETE INCOMPLETE INCOMPLETE] D&D Insider: dr 364...

... no. It's in the Forgotten Realms Player's Guide, which, um, completely ruins your point: Because, you know, nothing in Dragon magazine has been mentioned in the official hardcover books.

...except for Tiamat, at level 35? And Vecna, at level 35? And Maglubiyet, at level 32? I'm pretty sure I've misunderstood your meaning.

But the creatures themselves aren't tainted. Bullywugs are tainted batrachians. Foulspawn are tainted humanoids. Far Taints are perfectly normal specimens of whatever Far Realm ecosystem they belong to. They just corrupt the Prime Material.

Can you suggest any?

Cool! All right, then. I look forward to everyone's posts on this topic. :)
