[QUOTE="Lela, post: 454870, member: 1216"] Does she think of it as betrayal? She's the incarnation of Lust after all. She may think of Love as the perversion and want to stamp it out. Hmmmm, train of thought's a rolling. . . Lust wants Hate dead but isn't powerful enough. She wants Love to help her but she's currently (or always has been) too weak to do so. Lust sees an opportunity to combine their powers in order to defeat Hate. She plans to expend the full force of Love's Might into destroying Hate. It just so happens that this would destroy Love in the process (the two Powers/Entities/Energies/etc canceling each other out). Now, Love is unwilling to do this (unsurprisingly). Lust has decided to do it for her by taking over her lifeforce (such as in the way seasong mentioned) and expending the power herself. [b]Happy Ending:[/b] Once she has the power and actually sees what it is, she decides to keep it and repent of her evil deeds. She becomes both Lust and Love, perminantlly combining the forces so that one cannot exist without the other. She makes Hate fall in love with her and, since Love is greater than Hate, he decides not to kill her (he's still evil dude though, it's not that happy of an ending). [b]Moderate Ending:[/b] Lust takes over Love and the PCs must fight to free her before she destroys both Love and Hate. PCs win and somehow free Love from someplace deep within Lust. [B]RBDM ENDING:[/B] Lust succeds in destroying both Love and Hate (while the PCs look on). They are to know that they helped Lust do so as they watch. When they return to the Prime they find first that Hate is gone from the world and see all the good because of it. Then, they start to notice that mother's stop taking care of their children and clergy begin to fall away from their gods. They see the elements of comfort and caring begin to drop away. People aren't being Hateful, but nor are they looking out for others (helping others is an element of Love after all--at least here). Babies die, children starve, gods loose their worshipers. And carnal Lust is everywhere. The PCs were given a small measure of Love and Hate (which they should RP) when the two powers died. This allows them to continue caring about others (at least for a while). They must find a way to either bring Love back (likely along with Hate) or find others to replace them (possibly the PCs). The replacment for each must personally know the full power of one, turn from it, and reach out fully to the other. Try to convince the party Paladin that the only way to save Love is for him to become Hate. . . And, to think, I didn't make it into the RBDM Club. [/QUOTE]
