[QUOTE="Lyrad8791, post: 5970973, member: 6680626"] Okay, so I am attempting to start a campaign. I have made campaign places and such but never actually made the storyline behind it, nor have I ever gone and run what happens either. Now on the other hand, I am making a campaign in my own setting and working on creating the big "Villain". I would like to post the ideas I have come up with and see if anyone can help me flesh them out. Main Villain - Human, age 30s - Has taken control of a few towns, is in the process of getting more - Is look for someone to learn and take over as second in command (possible traitor PC here) - Started their life as a cleric and then went to arcane magics to control undead and gain power. - Wants ultimate power over people through fear -- Controls armies of undead, or at least rumored too. -- Takes control of small towns -- Public Torture --- Dismemberment by stretching --- Forces people to participate --- Disfigurement by fire or acid -- Murder --- Randomly kills a mother and leaves her children to fend for themselves. -- Kidnaps virgins for unknown rituals -- Specifically targets goodly aligned people, but any will do. - Has a cult -- Helps with the public torture -- Inflicts harm on random people at random times for no reason other than to hurt people. -- Commits theft and murders whole families. - Mini Villain -- Possible PC -- Takes orders from the main Villain Thats all I have been able to think of so far for backstory details and such. I want to make sure that the villain is evil seeming enough to get the group to go after and try and stop them, OR to join the villains side and go against the rest of the country. Either way, if anyone can point out possible flaws in what I have, or add to it, I would appreciate it very much.
