[QUOTE="rei jin, post: 1539681, member: 19169"] what about.... the demon will pay the boss of the slaad for the work of his minions by giving him invulnerability. (epic spell or something like that) as the slaad have been travelling around and finding the shards, the dead god of chaos has been whispering to them about the gem, about it's history and how to restore it. he tells them to put the gem in the blood which is inside the fortress and the one who does will be given absolute power over everything. they have a fight over the shards, one of them wins and takes command of the other slaad. meanwhile the vampire wants to get the blood so that his army and himself can survive without the need for blood, and to give him invulnerability. the vampires reach the castle at the same time as the slaad,who have discovered that the gem does nothing when assembled, and have been directed by the god of chaos to the castle and told that the vampire king has the key to gain entry. the vampire king recognises the gem from historical records(how else did he learn about the blood?) and he directs his army against the slaad, who were moving to engage them anyway. they meet outside the walls of the castle in a violent, bloody battle. preferably the PC's watch all this from a scrying glass, or other means. whilst the battle is raging, the vampire king and his bodyguards try to sneak into the castle unnoticed, figuring that invulnerability would help them defeat the slaad and gain the gem. the slaad commander receives word that the vampire king has slipped from battle into the castle already. the slaad commander runs in with his strikeforce, determined to beat him to the prize. they run through the castle, and eventually meet up with the vampires outside the doors of the dark temple. an epic fight occurs between the slaad commander and the vampire king, during which the doors to the temple are blown open by the ensuing chaos (a door keyed to a large outburst of chaotic energy maybe?) all the minions fight one another and the fight moves into the temple. the two leaders trade blow for blow, moving about the temple, which has a central platform around which flows the blood of the god of chaos. the fight intensifies, and the slaad falls momentarily.the gem falls from his hand into the blood, the vampire king dives for the gem, he sees the gem, reaches out and grabs it. the world darkens and all the lands shake. he floats up out of the blood, its dark colour running down his body, and destroys the commander slaad with a thought. he has been possessed by the god of chaos, and is no longer himself. the slaad all die the vampires all die except his second in command, who goes to the PC's for help to free his master from the possesion. the demon contacts the PC's to contract them to get the gem for him. the PC's then learn from a celestial messanger (or whatever you desire) the nature of the reincarnation, and that they are hopelessly overpowered, unless they ally with the vampire second in command and whoever else wants to help. so the challenge then becomes 1. to destroy the god of chaos 2. to avoid being destroyed by the demon 3. to destroy the demon eventually 4. to destroy the gem 5. to remove the blood of the god of chaos so he may never be reborn i dunno, what do you think? oh, and in regards to divinations... when the seeds of chaos walk the land and light falls from the sky destruction is moving on the wind from he who cannot die.
