Message: <blockquote data-quote="Grim" data-source="post: 455559" data-attributes="member: 132">I was thinking allong the lines of psionic canable halflings, and crazy undead assasins and I came up with something that I definitly think one of the players (Galthia) would definitly hate. Basically, he's a githyanki, right. Limbo Monk. And as everyone knows, githyanki HATE githzeri. But githzeria have a problem, because at 15th level, thier queen kills them off. Which is sort of an anti-powergaming thing, and isnt really backed up well RP wise, but work with me a little.So how exactly would this level cap work? My idea is that the queen has some sort of artifact that keeps tabs on all powerful githzeri, where they are, and how powerful they are. The "tracking device" would probably be some sort of hereditary magic that goes into every githzeri born, or something like that. Anyway, some githzeri, probably an evil adventuring party who know they are near the queens hitlist decide to bend the rules. They go to the white kindom and ask to be ghoulized, thus dying and dropping below the queens powerlevel radar, in exchange for, say, 20 years of service. Now this happened a while ago, so the party is WELL beyond 15th. AND they are all psions/psychic warriors, and they get to keep all their stats (including con), getting special DM treatment for being evil NPCs.That way, they look like normal ghouls, but are secretly insanely powerful. The perfect assasin. Just have them blend in with a group of grunts in some big/small skirmish, until they get close to teh party and bust out insane power combos. They are undead, they shouldnt technically exist, they already gave up thier lives, so they have nothing to lose. AND since they arnt subject to mind influnecing effects, they arnt subject to any of the party's nastier psionics.The funny part is, once the queen found out that the party had taken care of, or not taken care of, possible rivals, she would probably be grateful, and her people probably wouldnt. So by defending themselves, the party would set of an interplanar incident. And Galthia would definitly fight them anyway, racial rivalries and all.But it could also set of a sudden realization of how unfair the queen is being to her people, and how the aritifact must be destroyed. But then what to do with all the now free Githzeria?Sort of an Emancipation dillema. But a good subject for an planar adventure.And maybe that alreay killed undead archer lady would make a good precurser to the rest of the undead party. Yah, maybe they could be out for revenge, and gold/power.This may be crazy, it might not, but I'm posting it none the less. If you like it, PC, I have a bunch more ideas for the individual party members...</blockquote>
