Bump part the 3rd
Nostalgia time... the NPCs from the very first session of the campaign.
The adventure toook place in Trobridge, a village split between two opposing camps led by Sorin Ondailis the mercenary knight, and Aldric the mayor.
Sorin was the son of baron Kerson Ondailis, who used to rule over Trobridge. A brutal, vengeful man with a penchant for violence, he had returned to reclaim his heritage after having been absent for ten years. Aldric the Heavy-Handed was a conniving, ruthless character who came to power shortly before Baron Ondailis died (rumour has it that he was responsible for the baron’s death). He lost no time in stamping his authority on the hamlet, and made his home in the baron's fortified compound.
Things were at a stalemate before the PCs arrived. Both leaders recognised they couldn't defeat the other, but also were unwilling to leave. The PCs resolved the conflict by doublecrossing both of them and got them to destroy each other.

NPCs from the most recent session, as detailed here: http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=100715
Dryden is the Chief Inquisitor of the Witch Hunters, an organisation devoted to tracking down and slaying the bloodmages, followers of Mondain. He’s a ruthless and unyielding man, who gives the impression that he’ll let nothing stand between him and his objectives. Word is that he lost his family to the bloodmages, which ex-plains his hatred for them.
Dryden is actually a double agent, in league with his organisation’s enemies. His family is still alive, and under the thumb of the bloodmages; their lives are forfeit if he moves against the bloodmages’ inner circle. His motivations are more complex than simply wanting to protect his loved ones, however.
Dryden was the one who first contacted the bloodmages, and his true loyalties lie with them. He is motivated by ambition (the bloodmages have destroyed many of his rivals for his position) and security (without their enemies, the witch hunters would fade into irrelevance). His family’s position is a guarantee to the bloodmages that he won’t double-cross them.
Dryden: male human drd7/druidic inquisitor 10; CR 13; Medium Humanoid (human); HD 17d6+85 (153 hp); Init +5; Spd 30 ft; AC 27 (touch 17, flat-footed 22); BAB +12; Grap +15; Atk +23/+18/+13 melee (1d8+11/17–20 plus 2d6 vs humans, +5 keen, humanbane longsword); SA Spells, turn undead; SQ Spirit sight, spirits’ favour, detect evil, immunities, pierce illusion, pierce disguise, force shapechange, discern lies, learn the truth; AL LE; SV Fort +19, Ref +17, Will +27; Str 16, Dex 20, Con 20, Int 15, Wis 26, Cha 16.
Skills and Feats: Concentration +25, Knowledge (nature) +20, Knowledge (planes and spirits) +20, Knowledge (religion and philosophy) +20, Spellcraft +17, Divine Might, Dodge, Great Fortitude, Empower Spell, Extra Turning, Fortune’s Favour, Mobility, Quicken Spell, Spring Attack, Weapon Focus (longsword).
SQ — Immunities (Ex): Immune to charms, compulsions and possession.
Equipment: +5 keen, humanbane longsword; +5 Britannian steel chain shirt; vest of resistance +4; amulet of natural armour +1; circlet of mind shielding; ring of protection +2; ring of freedom of movement; boots of speed.
Spells Prepared (6/6+2/6+2/6+2/6+2/5+1/5+1/4+1/2+1/1+1, save DC = 18 + spell level): 0 — detect magic (x2), purify food and drink, read magic (x2), touch of fatigue; 1st — bless, camouflage (x2), divine favor* (x2), protection from evil, shield of faith (x2); 2nd — ancestral vengeance, blindsight (x2), inflict moderate wounds, rebuke (x2), zone of truth* (x2); 3rd — bestow curse, castigate (x2), detect thoughts*, heroism*, locate object, remove blindness/deafness, substitution; 4th — air walk (x2), quickened divine favor*, divine power*, holy smite, spell immunity, unholy blight (x2); 5th — dispel good, greater heroism*, quickened cure moderate wounds, empowered cure serious wounds, slay living (x2); 6th — etherealness, harm (x2), heal, stoneskin*, wind walk; 7th — blasphemy, quickened divine power*, greater restoration, greater teleport, quickened cure critical wounds; 8th — dimensional lock, greater spell immunity, power word stun*; 9th — quickened blade barrier*, empowered mass inflict serious wounds.

Powerup Results (substitution, stoneskin, shield of faith, divine power, greater heroism, quickened divine favor, boots of speed): 187 hp; Spd 60 ft; AC 32 (touch 18, flat-footed 26); BAB +17; Grap +30; Atk +38/+38/+33/+28/+23 melee (1d6+17/17–20 plus 2d6 vs humans, +5 keen, humanbane longsword); SQ DR 10/blacksteel, half damage from all attacks, fear immunity; SV Fort +23, Ref +22, Will +31; Str 20.
Dormand is a senior figure in the bloodmages’ inner circle. He is responsible for coordinating the activities of the various bloodmage cells around the empire, and as such knows more about their activities than almost anyone else. He has been a thorn in the party’s side for many months now, although he’s more inclined to see things the other way round.
Dormand: male human mag6/bloodmage 9; CR 12; Medium Humanoid (human); HD 6d4+9d8+43 (140 hp); Init +5; Spd 30 ft; AC 22 (touch 18, flat-footed 17); BAB +7; Grap +7; Atk +8/+3 melee (1d6+1, +1 quarterstaff); SA Spells; SQ Accursed, blood magic, bloodpool; AL NE; SV Fort +18, Ref +17, Will +17; Str 10, Dex 21, Con 20, Int 15, Wis 14, Cha 24.

Powerup Results (quickened shield, stoneskin, quickened scales of the serpent, displacement, quickened spectral hand): AC 31 (touch 18, flat-footed 26); Ranged atk +12; SQ DR 10/blacksteel, 50% miss chance.

Whoa, 2 months between updates. Oh well.

Nicely done, sir!
ow.
Ha, that's nothing! My munch-fu is as that of a small child compared to Geoff Watson's. By dint of careful selection of classes, feats, stats and items, he has managed to produce a character at 16th level with:
- +28 attack bonus when raging
- average 30 points damage per hit, before Power Attack
- 5 attacks per round with haste
- Fort and Will saves in the mid-20s
- Diplomacy, Sense Motive, Intimidate, Survival, Listen and Jump bonuses all > 20
And he wasn't even trying to be a combat monster. He could have done much worse, believe me.
In fact, the gap between him and everyone else got so wide that I asked him to tone down his character. It had got to the point where I was designing monsters and encounters specifically to neutralise Ronin, which isn't really a Good Thing. He was very cooperative and obliging, something you don't see often these days (not if you go by some people's stories on these boards anyway).
So what did I do last session? I killed his character. There must be an element of karmic payback in there somewhere, but I'm not sure which way it's pointing.
