[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 3277334, member: 2209"] I've played in one, ended in a big old TPK when the young insane god time stopped then killed us high level characters with no ways for us to act or escape. Very dissapointing and anticlimactic. I've run one where the party killed a darklord/demigod. The son of Ravanna and a mortal priestess of Kali. The party had to quest to get an artefact blessed crossbow bolt and hammer it in through melee to work as he could deflect arrows but they did it. It was quite climactic. The fight went on for a long time with lots of illusions, shadow summonings and disguising as PCs on the raskshasa demigod's part along with clerical spell power and came down to the wire with the PCs throwing everything they had at him and one PC ending up staking him. One of the PCs had semi-reluctantly become a champion of Shiva, able to call on the deity for extra arms to fight with and divine fire and destruction powers. This being ravenloft the PC was skeptical about whether the power would betray him for a long time and was reluctant to embrace it all the time. In the fight he embraced the Shiva power fully. After the god was dead the extra arms gestured for the PC to take the corpse of the demigod and throw it into a divine pillar of fire in the rakshasa's shrine room of the various hindu gods. The PC did so while invoking Shiva. Power radiated out and everyone felt the fabric of the universe be destroyed and recreated, changed forever. And the game then turned from 2e to 3e. [/QUOTE]
