[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 2695600, member: 326"] Hey Shemmy! :) Its a terrible idea. What happens if multiple lords all control a piece of the layer, does the infinite intelligence share itself between them? Does it have a favourite? :p [sarcasm]I'm straight on to ebay after this to pick me up a copy![/sarcasm] Actually I was being facetious, OBVIOUSLY that sort of baboonery could only come from Planescape...hence my smilie. No offence meant GC dude. Okay, so let me just see if I can bring this to the nub of the matter. The whole infinite realm idea doesn't work when you have stats for gods because then you have to explain the unexplainable. So it worked in 2nd Ed. and doesn't work in 3rd Ed. Fair enough...? Then he raised a totally irrelevant point. The problem inherant in your thinking is that if he rules an infinite area then he must have infinite demons. But a demon lord rules a finite area with a finite number of demons. Its a totally crazy and illogical viewpoint. Its okay to wax lyrical or philosophise about something such as that, but you can't design for it. [/QUOTE]
