Message: <blockquote data-quote="gfunk" data-source="post: 153107" data-attributes="member: 1813">I currently have a Sor 8/Alienist 6 that I have run through my DM's FR 3E campaign since the new edition came out.  Originally I went up to 8 levels in Sor but after we ran through the module "Speaker in Dreams," my PC became intrigued with Alienism and began to study it further (hoping to summon a Wyst someday<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" /> ). Anyway after Tome and Blood came out I picked up the Alienist PrC and have gone 6 levels in it.  At 4th level you reach the level of "Mad Certainity" and my DM told me that I was phobic against spiders and spider-like creatures (we run a Drow heavy campaign).  Everytime I see something that resembles a spider (e.g. altars, paintings, sculptures), I go out of my way to destroy it.  If it is too big to wreck by hand, then I use destructive spells.But back to the point . . . I *really* want to role-play the process of slowly losing my sanity.  By the time I hit Alienist 10 I want to act in a strange and unpredictable manner.  But I'm not sure how to go about this w/o harming other PCs or simply look like I'm holding up the game.Any suggestions?EDIT:  AddedI should mention that my PCs ultimate goal in life is to open a permanent gate to the Far Realms (MoTP) and end reality as we know it.  To this end, I've united all the alienist cabals in the Moonsea area, proclaimed myself as leader and am starting to create my own cult to worship me.At Lvl 15, I was going to pick up leadership and get a Cleric (w/ no god and Chaos/Destruction domains) and a bunch of followers.</blockquote>
