[QUOTE="Shemeska, post: 3267187, member: 11697"] Considering that Graz'zt wants the Blood War to end in the first place, and he feels that Evil should be less concerned about its own internal squabbles than in looking outwards (and metaphysically upwards so to speak)... Graz'zt might be someone to look at. But you also might want to avoid some of the Tanar'ri abyssal lords, because most of them, perhaps all of them are too young to remember the creation of the Pact Primeval (or whatever events actually truly happened in the past that the Baatezu have wrapped their mythology around). To that end, go for one of the Obyrith lords such as like Pale Night (the mother of Graz'zt), Dwiergus, Obox-Ob, Dagon, etc. But this ending of the Blood War would certainly be something that would go against the future planes of the Yugoloths, and their attention would be gained in a heartbeat. It might make for some odd bedfellows if the 'loths are in league with the PCs for mutual benefit, and the Rilmani would certainly wish to keep the Blood War status quo, to say nothing of the Archons and Guardinals (though the Eladrin might be staying out of the whole thing because a victory of Tanar'ri over Baatezu is a victor of Chaos over Law...). I could also see the creator/deity of the Demodands, Apomps the Triple Aspected, himself an exiled Baernaloth be working alongside what Abyssal Lord you use, helping to facilitate the entire thing purely out of spite against the 'loths. Ending the Blood War on something other than their terms would be disaster for them and Apomps' original kindred, and Apomps would burn the planes to ash for no reason other than spiting his brother-sisters for their slight against him that was already ancient when Asmodeus was still a child. Good revenge is worth the wait perhaps. [/QUOTE]
