Message: <blockquote data-quote="Maerdwyn" data-source="post: 845536" data-attributes="member: 835">Personally, I'd probably take the penitent suicide route, but if not, I'd go evil - give in to the hatred  and embrace the dark side of the force, as it were. Not my preferred playing choice, but this doesn't seem like a usual situation. If I'm already irrevocably damned, and if I'm going to be hated for it for ever by everyone I meet, I have to work with what I've got.   I'd bargain with another deity (or other power - maybe Llolth; Hey, you could found the drow <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />) to either get the curse lifted, or gain the power I'd need to survive ith the curse in place.  In the meantime, I'd use my diplomacy and other skills to convince people to obey me out of fear.  I'd attract toadies (living, as wells a undead and consturcts) to do my bidding, enforce my threats, protect me, and substitute for companionship I'd  otherwise be denied.  (I know I'd have the other party members, but how long could I stay with  them knowing that as they were increasingly looked upon as heroes, I became more and more despised?    Better to subtly undermine their efforts - maybe make them hunted and hated, too.  In that case they could be useful... We could all gain our revenge on the world - no the cosmos - together!)Run that by him - see how attractive it would be to him to have that kind of personality in the party. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />If the DM actually acepts it as a good idea, hadn him the character to use as an NPC, and insist on a new character. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" />PS.  Have you tried suggesting that the curse should affect only elves since the the Elvish gods are trying to make an example out of you for other elves?  What do the human gods care?</blockquote>
