[QUOTE="Sodalis, post: 229056, member: 1791"] I was going to say that... but darn you for beating me there... I was thinking that most of these super-monsters are planar- because seeing as how there are a dozen planes that onlyth emost powerful prime beings can reach- and then there are a dozen more that we cant, what makes you think that the material world is the most powerful or has the best monsters? i was reading the MotP and saw the axiomatic Bullette. And that thing is about ten times more powerful than the bullette that is in the MM. So that means that there are variations among planes, and there are a lot moe planes than you can shakea stick at. Another thing is that different powers and abilities work difefrently on differing planes (as per planescape). I remember staring in horror at my DM when I found out that my +4 sword of flaming burst was only a +1 sword in limbo. That scared the bajeezes out of me to know that magic behaves differently, but it makes sense... So a baby from this plane like the kobold, may the uber-vilain of the plane of froggies- having all energy immunity and ability to cast any spells at will as a free action. And i thought the tarrasque was scary until newer books came out- and I saw that there was the astral dreadnaught... that thing mademe fear planar travel... and i still am. Material plane is tame compared to some of the things that i had to go through to retrieve some artifact i didnt know how to use... and there is more.. but you shoudl be tired of my whining by now,.
