That does make spelljammers less valuable as a consequence.Do you give 150 of your rPLs to Airwhale, like you agreed on?--Day by day great waves of your armies arrive at Gnibile, carried there by spell and ship. Your undead armies fight their enemies under equal conditions, but your living forces are going trough hell. Facing an enemy who knows neither fear nor tiredness they fight day and night with no rest, traps and ambushes keeping them in a constant state of frayed readiness. Against an enemy that can appear trough the ground right under their feet at any time, making a sudden concentrated lightning-attack and then swiftly disappearing from where they came, your living armies have no reliable defence. Wraiths and Shadows find new converts every night, though only some of those slain are turned undead. Oh, you can lace the ground of their camps with spells, but without clerical magic even that accomplishes little.The war goes on, but your enemies match your power in every category...Lord Yaghal fights at your side, a veteran of a thousand Gnibilian wars his help swiftly proves to be invaluable.Even with only half a jaw-bone, a deep gouge in her cheek and with little left that resembles a nose Elistraee is still more beautiful than most mortals. Her grace and charm is still awesome, and when she hides her lower face under a veil few mortal men could withstand her allure. As she walks wearily trough the hospitals of the Great City, pouring her borrowed power into the Drow, she's still a vision of hope.To snack on some souls? His ability is limited, but yes.Victoria smiles/snarls in reply, "Is it not obvious? I'm pregnant with your quarter-demon, half-Devil, quarter human half-God. If my mother was here to see this it would surely kill her again." She smiles wistfully. The Drow under your care stay evil, for the most part.Not completely, and perhaps...Ok.The people, Dwarves, Kobolds, Goblinoids, Gnomes and Orcs, greet your messenger with cheering. Even though Gallador's reign was not particularly hard they still lived under an everprecent threat. Now, many of them hope, they have a chance to be free once again. They seek a return to the days of old, the time of small but proud independent tribes and kingdoms.Ah, yes. The explorations proceed, but for now you find little of interest.-Elistraee thanks your people, and all those precent when she awakens, warmly. "It was not long ago when a Drow, any Drow, would be met with unreasoning fear and violence. Her every word would be taken for a deception. She would be driven away, hunted down and killed, and word of her death would be greeted with relief and grateful prayer.And now you, the leaders and representatives of half the realms of heaven and Oerth, risk yourself to save my poor wicked people. Simply because it's the Good thing to do. You compete with each others on who can show the most mercy and compassion to my bent and twisted criminals, my poor lost children, when not long ago many of you would have competed on who could kill the most of us... Though the end of the world might well be approaching it seems the world is becoming a better place. I thank you."She is.Mercy and compassion...Elistraee is still in the Great City with her followers, helping the sick. She'll soon go the Eclavdra, but not quite yet.Elistraee looks up from the sleeping boy before her. A single tear tuns down her scarred cheek.The evacuation takes weeks to complete, but greater and greater numbers of drow are carried to Nyrond.Sorry, I'm working mostly from memory here. I don't have the time to look everything up and it's unavoidable that I make some mistakes. I know you have/had 6 epic PLs, but I didn't know exactly how you had assigned them. You did mention something about "the number of PLs I have does not limit the number of members in the council", but I may be wrong about that.In summary, it's not the rules that are broken, It's just I who am flawed.The local authorities attempt to strike back, but assuming you don't stay for the fight there's nothing they can do. The occasional exchanges of fire-power end up completely one-sided in your favour.The people of the Empire of Iuz are used to him coming and going and greet Abbon's words with extreme sceptisism. Though some are surprised that you're being allowed to spread your inflammatory propaganda most of them have no doubt that Iuz or his legions will soon end your campaign.</blockquote>
