[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 1190132, member: 326"] Hi CR Greathouse mate! :) Well I have no plans to add any 'new' Modrons; since the totality of the race is already completely described. However I may have some notes on their hierarchy. The biggest complication with 3rd Edition (and 2nd) is the inclusion of the Intermediate God class. That has played havoc with various planar hierarchies. Even though I actually support the idea of distancing Pantheon heads with other 'great' gods; WotC yet again blur the lines. Although thats not the real problem; which is the stretching of various planar hierarchies. eg. If we make, say, Demogorgon (a Demon Monarch) an Intermediate power; that means Princes become Lesser powers; Lords become Demipowers. What then exists between Balors (Hero-deities) and Lords in the Quasi-deity 'rung'. eg. Whereas if we keep Demogorgon at Lesser Power you face other incongruities such as why is Lolth an Intermediate power (or indeed is she?)? Why hasn't a greater power seized control of the Abyss (or indeed could the demon rulers join forces and be powerful enough to expel such a threat?)? I have never been a fan of the Formians to be honest, but I suppose I could weave some magic on them. ;) I may just refer to them as the 'Daals' if I include my Silver Slaad monster. Well of course thats the challenge for me. ;) I think such things are better explained within the content of the IH. Indeed. ...well I guess time will tell. :p Not sure of the relationship you are trying to convey between this article of Montes (which I have of course read before) and the nature of the Time Lords?
