[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 412630, member: 326"] Hi herald! :) I'm sorry; I must be in the wrong place I thought this was a message board. :p True, but its consistent with a truly chaotic evil society model and therefore makes sense applied therein. I don't recall forcing anyone to adopt my ideas? Well actually the Abyss is still the reservoir of chaotic evil spirits and the ultimate embodiment of that moral (or rather immoral) creed. So not everthing is different. Yet amazingly in the 3rd Ed. Manual of the Planes we pretty much return the cosmological [i]status quo[/i]. So none of the above made a bit of difference. Of course. They have as much right to restate anything as I have to inquire why such changes were made. Incorrect. They can STATE many points; whether those points are JUSTIFIED is a different matter altogether. eg. If the Superman comic showed the titular hero eating kryptonite that may become canon - but until its explained its not justified. Well actually I used logic and real world precedents to determine the socio-politics of the Abyss reinforced by examples from 1st Ed. cosmology (which, unlike 2nd Ed. cosmology, made sense). Regarding statistics; continuity with Deities & Demigods is obviously a valid point, though I have stated many times I am happy with the measure of power in the Book of Vile Darkness. Graz'zts (perceived*) relative weakness amongst his once peers disappoints on an admittedly personal level (given the seeming return to 1st Ed. continuity for the most part within 3rd Ed.), I am simply curious as to the reasoning behind it, if any? *I won't know until I have his stats.
