[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 6036243, member: 326"] Hey Fieari mate - cool idea! :) Recently I was thinking about an encounter (delve) whereby you would need to go into the mind of a childishly deranged demigod. Some ideas were drawn from M. S. Escher. [U]The Deranged Demigod[/U] Jigsaw guards. These two-dimensional golems would look like jigsaw pieces with guards drawn on one side and part of a monstrous guardian on the other. When enough pieces join together they spin around revealing the more dangerous monster. Giant (Writer's) Hands. These giant disembodied spider-like hands are sometimes used as mounts for the jigsaw guards. They are armed with pens of comparable size. They can stab with these and squirt ink, but if left alone (they don't get hit that round) they can draw objects which come to life (including jigsaw guards and even other hands). Clockwork Chattering (Temporal) Teeth. If they bite you, you lose a healing surge each round until you destroy them. Unravelling Mind. This giant 'flat worm' can arrange itself into the shape of a huge head (that of the deranged demigod) with a face on both sides (one happy, one angry/bitter). When it starts to shapeshift into this form you can choose to stand on the inside or the outside of the head. Those on the side of the angry face get attacked (and this side cannot be attacked). Those on the side of the happy face can attack it and don't get attacked back. But the chance of each side is random. [/QUOTE]
