[QUOTE="MortalPlague, post: 6497581, member: 62721"] My Rise of Tiamat campaign is nearing its final chapter. We've gone off into homebrew territory on many occasions, and the end result is that my PCs will be 17th level as they enter the climactic finale. They have Dispater, Lord of the Second Level of Hell as an ally. And so, before their final push, Dispater will hold a banquet for the PCs. The real motivation here is for Dispater to offer the PCs power in exchange for their souls. If the assault goes poorly, he'll be in possession of several powerful souls. If the assault goes well, the PCs will owe some of the victory to Dispater. And eventually, he gets their souls. Either way, he wins. That being said, I want this to be an opportunity to explore just what a banquet in the Nine Hells might look like. What's being served as food or drink? What sort of things do archdevils get up to at parties? What sort of entertainment is there? I'd love to solicit the creative input of ENWorld's finest. Everyone on these boards is always full of ideas, and stealing them has led to some excellent gaming. [B]Bonus:[/B] If you can create an archdevil for me who can show up at Dispater's court, I'd be delighted. I have about three or four prominent ones in mind, but there will be dozens of bit players at the banquet. A quick, interesting physical description and something they might converse with the PCs about would aid me a great deal in adding texture to this banquet. [/QUOTE]
