[QUOTE="Trit One-Ear, post: 5963380, member: 6678017"] First, thanks to [MENTION=28028]nogray[/MENTION] for correcting my language oversight. That would have been an embarrassing mistake to make at the table. Second, [MENTION=6686199]Arctic Wolf[/MENTION], I like all the help you've given me. Here's my updated list of symbols, titles and Devils. A mask - The Pretender - Bel An Iron Cross - The Duke - Dispater A rose - The Lover - Mammon A serpent eating itself - The Heir/The Family - Fierna/Belial A pair of shackles - The Prisoner - Levistus A crown of roses - The Princess - Glasya A dagger - The Betrayer - Baalzebul A flame - The Destroyer - Mephistopheles A thick crown - The King - Asmodeus Pretty pleased with all of these. Now on to the next step... Part of this challenge will revolve around players completing certain tasks before the trap (at this point I'm thinking tipping-floor-into-pit trap, mixed with some attack effects for those trying to retain their balance) defeats them. Each of these tasks will be suggested in a clue written on the podium. For example, the person who assumes the role of The King will have to hold the lever that lowers the floor until the task is over. It will drain their blood slowly (resulting in a lost healing surge?) Their podium will read "The King must rule with a steady grip, even giving his own life to ensure order. If his grip falters, all may be lost." (Or something like that). Not sure what the other tasks should be... this is where I feel I need the most help. Here are the few ideas I have. The Lover - "The Lover is a thief of the heart. The Lover revels in the power stolen from others, be it emotional or other." *** The Lover player must take an orb from another player's podium. The Heir - "The Heir must usurp the position of their betters. Those true to the cause know that force is required to take their rightful place, and any who stand in their way must fall." **** The Heir must replace another player at a podium (using forced movement?) The Prisoner - "The Prisoner knows the power in his place. While his freedom may be limited, his influence reaches far beyond his confines. While a time may come to break free of these bonds, now is not that time." ****The Prisoner cannot move from his podium (or else...what?) The Princess - "The Princess must pay homage to The King. The time will come when the King must be dethroned, and the Princess will take her rightful place. For the moment, however, her respect and allegiance must be given." ****The Princess must take her orb to the King's podium (this will probably be through the traps, and on opposite sides of the room). So, that was a lot of text. Uh... thoughts? ....help? Trit [/QUOTE]
