[QUOTE="Calico_Jack73, post: 1464661, member: 14403"] Now I know that you love your setting and all but Asmodeus is WAY too tricky to be caught. If he knew that there was the possibility of getting caught he'd make sure that it seemed to be someone else committing the offense. Asmodeus has been playing the deception game since the beginning and if you read the wording in the BOVD (or was it Manual of the Planes) "he has yet to be bested". I also believe that as gods get further away from their home plane they lose more and more power. In Nessus Asmodeus would be pretty much unbeatable. If he were easy to beat then you'd think that he'd have been defeated by the gods of goodness ages ago (think about how many good gods there are in FR). He also has Tiamat at his beck and call... she guards the first level of the Nine Hells. If anything he'd allow the gods to THINK they had beat him so that there would be another major power struggle in the Nine Hells among his lessers which he could then twist to his advantage. Sorry... I'm a diehard Asmodeus fan. :] [/QUOTE]
