[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7869509, member: 6670153"] Mystra doesn't just have Elminster and the other Chosen of Mystra back, she invests a portion of her own divine power in them, they are functionally independant extensions of her own divinity in them, Avatars in a more traditional sense of the term. And when Elminister ended up in Hell, trapped, Mystra walked in, butchered the Devils by the thousands and pimp slapped Asmodeus so hard he forgot Elminister was ever there. If a Sorcerer King drained Elminster's life force, he'd blow up like a fat kid in Willy Wonk's factory, because he'd containing part of the life force of a Goddess. See Mystra has so much juice she has to dump part of her essence/power in mortals, she traditionally is the most powerful of FRs Gods, to the point where she can cut off even Gods from Magic, so it's almost too much juice for her to contain with out having a spellplague like disaster every Tuesday, so she stores some of it in Volo, some in Elminister, some in crazy Manshoon, some in Larloch, some in the Seven Sisters, ect..., so a Sorcerer King trying to tap into lifeforce/magic is a like three year old sticking a fork into an electrical socket. Mystra's still waking up to her full power after being dead, a death that wreck an entire star system so hard that an Overgod had to fix it, but one she does, a treaty with the Promordials of Athas, most of whom are gone anyways, won't stop her from coming to Athas and causing mayham till Elminister is returned to her. Mystra doesn't like having her toys stolen, she tends break thing, like worlds, planes of existance when that happens. [/QUOTE]
