[QUOTE="Derulbaskul, post: 910167, member: 1581"] Why not have Moander as your BBEG? There is a place called Darkwatch in the Dalelands and you can get the info on it for free. Part of Moander's essence is trapped there thanks to elven high magic. Moander always required a gargantuan mound of rotting vegetation in order to manifest an avatar. This would explain the Saruman-like destruction of trees etc... and also explain why paladins, clerics and druids would be working together. Anyway, I would suggest using the Blightspawned template from Unapproachable East, together with juju zombies and the Blightlords of Talona. Perhaps the Blightlords are tapping the dead/trapped Moander's power... which means that you better buy Monte Cook's excellent, Requiem for a god for further inspiration. Oghma is indeed the god of knowledge. Another alternative would be Savras who specialises in divinations and foretelling. I am using some similar themes as I have described here in my next campaign and I plan to use a gynosphinx cleric of Savras as a major source of knowledge (of course, the party will have to first rescue her from a pack of marauding hieracosphinxes or perhaps shades as she will be based in an ancient temple of Savras somewhere near, or in, Anauroch). BTW, her name is Arialda the Wise. I've been wanting to use a sphinx in this way for years. Cheers D [/QUOTE]
