This probably needs a spin off thread...

The above was all posted in the Bone Devil preview thread in answer to those saying the Bone Devil is boring and needed powers...which, I agree, devils should have. The most vocal complaint of course being mostly "WotC should have done this for me"...which I do not agree with. So I threw this together for those who believe themselves incapable or unwilling to do it themselves.
I'm thinking suggested groupings of powers might be useful with each specific devil...but if you want, say, a Barbed devil trying to work his way up the ladder and specializing in illusion to manipulate mortals into temptation/turn evil...another, maybe, is all about wreaking despair by poisoning and destroying food supplies...and then you can have hordes of "soldier" types who just do the Produce flame, Fireball 1/day kinda "heavy hitters"...but they're all still LESSER [specifically, Barbed] Devils. Opens up lots of doors for diabolic personalities/npcs/plot hooks with what were previously basic "fodder" devil types...moreso for the Greater devil ranks.
The same applies to those complaining about the dragon's lack of magical abilities...and though we haven't seen them yet, a general "What X types of Demons can do..." will probably be interesting to come up with our own.
Taken further, we can use this thread for whatever you want: Giants, Genies, Angels...any category of critter that will require some "general/all X can Y..." powers.
Questions. Comments. Thoughts. Likes/Dislikes.
Have at ye! This is just a fun thought exercise/creativity thread. Go nuts!
