Lady Despina's Virtue - Continued

[Horacio]

As excellent as always. I read and re-read the story , and the more I read it, the more I love it

*claps his hands wildly*

I want a Despina Movie! Maybe Peter Jackson will buy the story?! )

O.K., let's do the casting:

Lady Depina: Liv Tyler (the innocent yet eerie look of Miss Tyler can be the right for a demoness)

You continue:

Continued Casting Ideas:

Mostin - Christopher Walken (who else can pull of the creepiness of someone who knows too much?)

Hehehe

Wonderful!

As for the casting: Ortwin: I'd say Dennis Quaid. But I suppose Eadric will be the toughest choice. Do we have true heroes with a divine touch in Holywood?

Ewan McGregor?

Re: Summoning

The Summon Monster spells (I-IX) are unchanged in all regards - after all, they only last a matter of rounds and essentially they're not much use for anything beyond combat.

The Planar Binding Spells are a different story entirely, however. These are employed for more complex tasks - either with the use of a Magic Circle (if you're in a desperate hurry) or with a thaumaturgic diagram (if you're taking the correct, sensible precautions). This gives much more of a ritual magick feel- after all, it takes 3 hours to inscribe a diagram if you "take 20."

And consider - the most powerful Summoning Spell (IX), allows you to bring, say, an Astral Deva or a Night Hag. It will serve you unfailingly for a minute or two. This is small potatoes.

Planar Binding can, in theory bring a Balor, Pit Fiend or Death Slaad. Greater Planar Binding: a Solar (it has a 24HD cap). Of course, it's risky, but an unpalatable deal to Mostin (who is good-ish in alignment) is going to be no problem for a CE summoner who is happy to sacrifice virgins in order to slake a demon's thirst.

And Greater Planar Binding is an *8th* level spell.
It is reasonable to assume that a 9th level analog can be extended to include very powerful demons (Lords, maybe Princes) and devils (Dukes of Hell).

Not that Mostin can cast 9th level spells.

Yet.

hehehe

We all know how the Anauroch in another world was created... wizards like Mostin learned lvl12 spells!

Ewan McObiwan? Nah. Sep, Lombard, whom would you like? After all, it's your story! Did you call Peter Jackson yet?

Yeah, but he wouldn't pay us enough for the rights.

Despina: Franka Potente (Run, Lola, Run)
Mostin: Billy Bob Thornton
Ortwin: The guy who played Inigo Montoya in the Princess Bride
Nwm: Gerard Depardieu.
Eadric: Any chiseled and dashing Hollywood hero except Russel Crowe. You need someone to bring the $$$ in, after all. And Russel Crowe is really tedious.

I'd probably cast Christopher Walken as Graz'zt.

Re: Re: hehehe

Isn't that Mandy Potemkin?

Anyway, this is what I came up with.

Despina: Liv Tyler.
Eadric: George Clooney
Ortwin: Kenneth Branagh
Nwm: Samuel L. Jackson
Mostin: Billy Bob Thornton
Tahl: Dennis Quaid
Bishop Cynric: Sean Connery
Grazz't: Al Pacino

I'll keep working on it.
