There was a Chinese deity who was an assassin of the gods. He had a necklace that was a triangle of stone that could transform into any weapon you wanted. Or you figured out a way to kill Elric and take the Ring of Kings or Stormbringer. Why not? They were statted out, if you had the first run of Deities and Demigods. Those were the zannier solutions, of course. We had serious ones. I don't even remember what they were, but all you needed was one good attack on her. No time to heal. No chance to respond.There was always a way, and her pathetic hit points gave her a glass jaw.Or we'd come up with some whacked-out solution like a Portable Hole full of holy water, like they did in the novel. The reason TSR could publish a novel with that sort of climax in the story was because people DID things like that in their games.</blockquote>
