[QUOTE="DrJawaPhD, post: 9296540, member: 7044770"] That fits perfectly with Akharin Sangar and working for Navid - that setting is the embodiment of strict utopia being crammed down citizens' throats "for their own good" whether they enjoy it or not, so the motivation to want to disrupt the Radiant Citadel would be palpable. Only problem there is that type of NPC may not work as a villian, most DnD players I know would side with that type of NPC as an anti-hero unless you lean hard into making them insufferably obnoxious. I love the idea of having this anti-hero NPC leading a troublemaking band of Rakshasas re-skinned as lions to match their dawn incarnate. Might even steal that idea for my Radiant Citadel campaign :) Did you end up choosing Pazuzu as the bad guy behind the whole thing? That's who I use as the overall campaign BBEG since he has the tie-in already for San Citlan plus he's criminally underrated, one of my favorite NPCs in all of DnD along with Asmodeus [/QUOTE]
