[QUOTE="Solarious, post: 3077425, member: 27346"] I have Korlic of the Grey Flame statted up somewhere. I'll let him loose once I get home - he's on the Council of Ashtakala, I think. [b]EDIT[/b]: The Lords of Dust are a collection of fiends spawned by Khyber - mostly Rakshasas - and other outsiders who have, for one reason or another, have been banished from their own planes, and take up residence in Eberron/Khyber. These exlies serve the interests of the Lords of Dust in hopes that when the Rajah Overlords return (and keep in mind that the Age of Demons lasted over 3 times as much than the rest of history combined), they'll be granted enough power to acomplish whatever they wanted. Mind you, the Outsiders of Eberron are exactly that: Outsiders, and their motivations are rarely completely understandable in comparison to the mortals of the material plane. For example, take [url=http://www.bossythecow.com/Thelestes%20v2.pdf]Thelestes[/url], the succubus assasin. She is literally an embodiment of murder: it is her purpose, her being, the very reason she exists at all, premediated killing incarnate. They are immortal and alien, with a different sense of time and purpose than living beings. Rakshasas are much the same: none of them are in any great rush to free their masters, and play intricate 'games' to pass the time. At their highest councils, the Lords of Dust are Epic threats, and have few peers in terms of sheer potency. One such example I've made is Korliac, the Grey Flame. He's from the same Dungeon issue that Thelestes was featured (Dragon #327), and I've deliberately taken his powers a bit beyond that of what was strictly presented. I didn't include any Epic feats, but he doesn't exactly need them. So, without further adiou, we have in this corner, exiled from Fernia for seeking forbidden knowledge, master of mayhem, a well of madness and damnnation... Kudos to Sepulchrave II for his work in posting his cruel creations: much of Korliac was based on Annihor's stats, skills, and powers. Much love goes to Keith Baker, who made Eberron and the boundless evil that is Bossy, my his dread name cause genital herpes. Special thanks to the noodles on the WotC boards, who initally inspired me to create Korliac when someone said that Eberron was mostly low level. [/QUOTE]
