[QUOTE="Steverooo, post: 2104904, member: 9410"] Mechanus having been left undefended by the uncaring Defenders of Daybreak, the Judge of Law position is now open. Meanwhile, Elder, now free from his prison, chains, AND Stonebear, makes his way to the Court of Law to petition for the redress of greivances; namely, the theft of "his" Universe by the "new gods"! Now PK has some choices... Elder could find the place empty of all life, and assume the role itself... It can always find some intelligent dupe to argue its case for it! Or, Orcus could have picked up the crown. Now since possession is 9/10th of the law, the fact that Elder possessed the universe, previously, pretty much proves his case... unless the Dod can prove that It (and Its kind) stole it, themselves... Of course, if Elder is running the show, he will call the other untrapped worm as a witness, and perhaps even try to get the capstone removed, to free ALL the worms! Orcus, of course (assuming he's in command) wouldn't allow that! Elder wants to free its own kind, and return the Universe to its previous, undead state. Orcus wants to make everyone more miserable. The DoD want to save the world (again)! Every-(one/thing) is bound by the law, however, including the judge! Only the letter of the law (and the evidence that can be brought to bear) matter... Obviously, if the DoD lose, everyone and everything does. Can they call the bloody-eyed Elf as a witness? Can he add anything about the "true history" of Spira? (And if so, won't he already be there, having foreseen his need to appear?) Is Elder's claim to Spira really bogus? And if so, then what is its real, true history? Naturally, this can easily be worked in with the Prophecy of the Destroyer, and other such stuff, as the GM wishes. Why, you could weave this tale into whole cloth, rather easily, if you like... Obviously, combat is not an option, and there will probably be Constructs of Law (non-living) set up to enforce the rules (such as the entire Courthouse, itself). Odd laws (such as "When a question arises for which there is no answer defined in The Law, the current godling of demarcations shall be called in to ajudicate the contested point. Should they be unavailable within a reasonable time, then the most powerful representatives of each side shall decide the matter in a manner which suits them both, without complaint, being closetted together until the matter is decided." Translation: This usually means that they go into the next room and battle it out until one is no longer able to object, then the trial continues). Spells will mostly be information-oriented, and Agar's new spells should be a great help in establishing the truth... Then, the DoD only has to PROVE it! ;-p This could be fun, in a non-combat sort of way. Also, in whatever case the GM chooses, above, the Judge will obviously be hostile to the DoD! [EDIT]: In addition, Elder would probably also charge Galanna with Theocide, although Orcus, too, is probably guilty of that, as well... [/QUOTE]
