[QUOTE="smbakeresq, post: 7487832, member: 28301"] Really? Here is a description of the Shadowfell: "The Shadowfell, also known as the Plane of Shadow, was one of the planes of existence in various cosmological models. Its purpose and characteristics evolved as new cosmologies were formulated. Other names for this plane included Shadowland,[3] the Demiplane of Shadow,[4] and simply Shadow.[5] It existed as sort of counterpart to the Feywild, in the sense that it was a reflection, or "echo", of the Prime Material Plane. Unlike the Feywild, it was a bleak, desolate place full of decay and death.[5][10] “ It is the toxic plane of darkness and power. It is the hidden place that hates the light." All available information on the Raven Queen states that Raven Queen rules the ShadowFell, a dark, toxic place, and hates intelligent undead, that's why she battles them. She fights with Orcus over control of the dead, not because she thinks he is evil while she is good. To me its very unreasonable that any good aligned people would ever call on her for power nor make a deal with her wherein she controls all the terms. That's what other patrons are for. I see your argument all the time by players who want to dip Hexblade for armor and weapons powered by their primary stat but want to be good-aligned to justify their selection. Maybe its me but to me its just an attempt at min/maxing a PC with just a veneer. At least put in the effort to re-flavor the subclass completely to make an attempt at getting it in. [/QUOTE]
