[QUOTE="Fieari, post: 2139976, member: 16221"] Start an order. Recruit people. Start a cult. The purpose of the cult/order whatever is to stop anyone from waking the terrasque. Train different sects in the various different classes for good balance. Buy magical items and such that will aid in concealing a location. Line the room the terrasque is sleeping in with lead... limited wish the lead there if you need to. Fabricate might also help. Silence if absolutely nothing else will work. Line all the corridors with lead as well. Dimensional Lock as large an area as possible. Equip your currently low level order with as powerful magical equipment as you can find/buy/make. Give your order the means to contact you wherever you are, say with a scroll of message or something. Make certain you have the means to teleport back to the entrance to the location as fast as possible. If tall dark and dangerous political leader shows up, defy him. If you can't kill him, at least attempt to drive him off. The objective is not to kill the leader (though if that happens, tough crap) but to PREVENT HIM ENTRANCE. The lead will keep even an epic wizard from scrying the terrasque. At that point, he's working off of discriptions you've given him. A dimensional lock will thus keep him out, forcing him to go thruogh you and your men. Collapsing the entrance might help, but even you could open it back up again and so if you think he's more powerful than you, he'll have no trouble. But maybe it'll slow him down anyway, so give it a try. Your order and the collapsed entrance might give anyone he SENDS to wake the terrasque a run for their money anyway. And even better... make it impossible for the big evil dude to SEND anyone... ANYONE to wake the thing up. Make it ABUNDANTLY CLEAR to him that if he wakes it, he's going to be the first one it tries to eat. The dimensional locks will ensure he can't run away. If you go in after him and collapse the exits, he'll have to spend time... too much time... clearing them away again, so the terrasque will undoubtably eat him. This won't help the world, but if you let this leader KNOW what you are doing, it'll give him cause to pause and think about it. If all this fails... well, then you go into the strategies others will detail for you here. But hopefully it won't fail. [/QUOTE]
