[QUOTE="Kaodi, post: 2106003, member: 1231"] [b]Really Weird Idea[/b] I just had a really weird idea, not sure if it would fit though. It could certainly be tied to some sort of nefarious scheme though. If you support the idea of parallel realities located through the Plane of Shadow and that sort of stuff, I wonder if you might bring a group of Defenders from another reality where divine law prohibits taking the form other than your own, so that only the most evil, depraved creatures can or will do it. These new Defenders are deposited in this reality, without really knowing what has happened, and they start doing normal good deeds, interspersed with horrible acts of murder of people or creatures who change forms. Now, these new Defenders can't really be said to be evil, because where they come from they would be considered to be doing the right thing, but they are ruining the reputation of our Defenders. Of course, when those Defenders meet our Defenders, well, they are going to believe they are some sort of powerful demons who must be slain, and then the fun really begins. Now, I must say for the record that I only posted this idea because of the interesting possibilities for how it might be resolved, not for the, " the players must defeat themselves, " angle, because it's possible they would not have to fight them directly, as I know Sagiro already made you guys fight evil versions of yourselves. Also, since these Defenders are from a different multiverse with some different rules, they might not have the same abilities, or employ the same spells, possess the same magic items, worship the same deities, etc, etc, etc, but most of their lives would be roughly parallelled, though specific circumstances might be different. Maybe this would be really inappropriate for your campaign, but it may spark the minds of the other readers here as well. [/QUOTE]
