[QUOTE="Derulbaskul, post: 821544, member: 1581"] Hehe... a lot of parallels with my own thoughts and plans for a campaign set in the Dalelands. Anyway, some observations from me (all IMO/IMC/etc...): - Moander's favoured weapon is a sharded cudgel and I would argue that this is best represented by a morningstar. If that doesn't appeal, just choose light mace or a club. - Domains: Chaotic, Corruption (BoVD), Evil, Plant and possibly Renewal. - Location: Don't forget part of Moander's essence is still locked away in the Darkwatch in the Dalelands. Monte Cook's excellent Requiem for a god might give you some ideas here... can you say, "blood of Moander"? - Shar & Lolth: I reckon that Shar has a much larger plan: she wants to steal the drow from Lolth. Lolth's silence gives her an opportunity... and awakening Moander is part of that strategy. What if awakening Moander fatally weakens Lolth at a vulnerable time? - Prestige Class: I think the blighter is also a good idea as a base. Have you thought about calling the class Minion of Moander which is mentioned in 2E's Faiths & Avatars? Also, perhaps anyone achieving 10th level in the class is known as the Mouth of Moander? Again, 2E is the inspiration for this name. - Gauntlets of Moander: These artifacts were able to drain a Pool of Radiance. What if their power against the Weave was such that they could drain or corrupt an elven mythal? Perhaps the Cormanthor drow are also involved, searching the Darkwatch for this artifact so that they can turn the mythal around Myth Drannor into a zone of night... which also suits Shar because perhaps this is a first step to poisoning the Weave with her Shadow Weave. Anyway, the point I'm making is that Moander's return could really become an epic/Epic event setting the scene for a much broader campaign that simply Old Mouldy coming back. Anyway, these are some more-or-less random thoughts prompted by your comments. If you're interested in hearing any more of my ideas I would be happy to post the campaign background I wrote.
