[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8405069, member: 23751"] Nope. That's just more of your bad extrapolation. Stop with that. A CEO doesn't know every little thing the happens in his company. He broadly sets the course of the company and the lower down management execute his vision. Nope. Again, bad extrapolation. You need to ask more questions instead of assuming things. Possibly. He's more powerful in the Realms setting than in any other setting than possibly the points of light. We don't know if he's a god in any others, or how powerful he would be there. Demon Lord stats(same power level as Archdevils) stats are on par with the quasi-deities listed on page 11 of the DMG. An Archdevil isn't even as powerful as a lesser god, let alone a greater god or overgod. I don't know the Fiendish Codex. Never seen it. Say what? It 100% does match his stated goals on Toril. Their power varies from plane to plane. It's a bit confusing, but there is only one Thor, but he is also simultaneously however many Thors are gods on however many planes he's a god. When he manifests as a god of X setting, he has X power. When he manifests as a god of Y setting, he has Y power. X and Y might be different. Yes I can see the problem you've created, but it's not an actual game problem. You can assume many things. The only place a god is powerless is at the base of the spire. Asmodeus would be powerless there as well. That's not my argument. His power is not diffused anywhere. It's simply not infused by the vast majority of settings. This is true. Because it doesn't work that way by RAW. It's impossible to bank 10 dollars worth of power in a million different planes and have it add up to anything other than 10 dollars worth of power in each separate plane. Only the guy with the million dollars matters and then only at that bank(setting). Only one aspect of LE is tyranny. You can in fact be LE and not be a tyrant in any way, shape or form. LE =/= Tyranny. [/QUOTE]
