[QUOTE="Katerek, post: 635060, member: 5193"] During the time of the avatar wars Ao cast the gods (lets call these guys the Interlopers) down to Toril. There were many supposed excuses. Here is the truth (maybe....) Ao had been relaxing one day, like he is prone to do and noticed a shining pin prick of light in an area of the firmament that was normallly all dark. In his infinite curiosity, for he could remember creating no such thing, he went to explore it. When he looked through the hole in the sky, he was suddenly come upon by the urge to commit suicide. What he saw on the other side was just THAT bad. So Ao, in all his great and infinite wisdom caste his children to Toril so that he could do battle with the entropy he glimpsed on the other side. That battle was brief. Ao lost and now resides insane, babbling in the heavens. The Great Old Ones have come through the portal and cultists on Toril are now starting to realize they are out there. The cultists have been waiting for untold time, for this was prophesized long ago. There ARE things beneath the desert, but they have been sleeping this whole time, but now they begin to stir. The interlopers are only dimly aware of this, they prefer the ostrich effect. _____________________ Secretly figure out your PC's sanity scores. Make it unhealable with spells. Read the Cthulu book very closely, everything you need is there. Then, make it an EVENT when Elmonster or one of the ohter baddies goes nuts! How WOULD the agents across Toril react if suddenly the magister lost her mind? Maybe there are REASONS that the Red Wizards have completely changed their order. Just where was Zas Tam for so long on his last trip into the plane of shadow? Who IS that strange man in his court? ___________________ These are just ramblings, hope you can use something. I have successfully merged the mythos and my own homebrew campaign and have never regretted it. Good luck to you! [/QUOTE]
