Hordes of the Abyss: Q&A

[Nightfall]

Yeah well just cause people EXPECT it, doesn't mean they actually expect it. Look at Butch and Sundance. They did just fine robbing the same train numerous times.

It's true, but they would be looking out for it. Now, if he shunted his essence into his Wand at the last second and then possessed the one who defeated him, slowly corrupting the essence of their body, mind, and soul until it becomes a vessel for his rebirth, people wouldn't be expecting that because it's new.

 

[Nightfall]

Well who says he can't do that AND become an undead god?

 

[Rystil Arden]

Well who says he can't do that AND become an undead god?

That's true. Let's compromise--he becomes a lichlike undead god and uses his wand as his phylactery, slowly corrupting his defeater until he can rise again at his full power from his new vessel.

 

[Nightfall]

Works for me. It certainly has the novelty of being totally in character of Orcus.

 

[Mouseferatu]

Bah. You're both wasting your time. Demogorgon's going to eat him and suck his essence dry anyway.

 

[Nightfall]

You're just mad cause you didn't think of it first Ari.

 

[Rystil Arden]

True that

Bah. You're both wasting your time. Demogorgon's going to eat him and suck his essence dry anyway.

Oh yeah...well...uhhh...A Solar could beat them both at the same time!

By the way, it's almost time for my obligatory obscure Eyros reference, so replace the Solar with Taufenacht and it's still true

You're just mad cause you didn't think of it first Ari.

He just doesn't like Orcus because Orcus doesn't have a moose head

Making Epic Demon Lords
* Ability scores all increase 2 for every 5HD added.

Huh? Is that instead of the 1-every-4-HD increase, or as well?


glass.

 

[Nightfall]

Oh yeah...well...uhhh...A Solar could beat them both at the same time!

Yeah if we're talking about these weaker versions of Orcus and Demogorgon. But I'm just sticking with ToH for now.

He just doesn't like Orcus because Orcus doesn't have a moose head

*chuckles* Yeah well I'm not going to touch that one...
