[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 8511587, member: 2209"] [URL=https://www.patreon.com/RVNCREATIVE/posts]Greyhawk Rebooted A Player's Guide to Oerik Draft 1.0[/URL] 5e [b]Undead, Actual Undead:[/b] Conquering tribe after tribe, Vecna began to experiment with his new subjects for the “Ultimate Solution to Death.” Many undead were created in his experimentations. Vecna marched against Haradaragh and after six long years of siege, the first Flan city fell. Those unfortunate residents who survived the siege were transformed into undead creatures to a man. So it is that magic is generally viewed in a very dark light across most of Oerik. It is seen primarily as a tool to animate undead, a way to destroy things, and a means to summon fiends. [b]Undead Horror:[/b] ? [b]Undead Overlord:[/b] ? [b]Foul Undead:[/b] ? [b]Undead Abomination:[/b] The ancient Ur sorcerers of the Flan, most notable among them Vecna, mastered necromancy and used it to create undead abominations to conquer and control vast populations. Those who did not succumb to the will of the Ur were often slain with magic spells then animated as undead to serve dutifully. [b]Most Horrific Undead:[/b] Meanwhile in the Underoerth, the drow utilized the same necromantic magic to craft some of the most horrific undead ever known. Though the means to create these horrors was lost in devastating drow wars, the creations remained, some of them self-propagating, their victims joining them in unlife. [b]Ghost:[/b] ? [b]Ghoul:[/b] ? [b]Arianin, Lich Imperator:[/b] Arianin was killed, but Tilorop used arcane energy to transform him into the first lich on Oerth. [b]Vecna, The Whispered One, Once Supreme Lich, Arch Lich, Lich-Lord:[/b] In -719 BCY Vecna finally perfected the technique required for lichdom and transformed himself. [b]Elder Lich:[/b] ? [b]Lerrek of the Vesve, Elder Lich:[/b] ? [b]Brooding Lich:[/b] ? [b]Lich:[/b] ? [b]Acererak, Lich:[/b] ? [b]Shadow:[/b] ? [b]Skeleton:[/b] After rebuilding their army by raising the dead of their previous failed coup to serve as zombie and skeletons troops, Tilorop and Arianin mounted an final attack in the Third Regents War and this time succeeded in overthrowing the Regency Council. [b]Specter:[/b] ? [b]Vampire:[/b] ? [b]Wraith:[/b] ? [b]Zombie:[/b] After rebuilding their army by raising the dead of their previous failed coup to serve as zombie and skeletons troops, Tilorop and Arianin mounted an final attack in the Third Regents War and this time succeeded in overthrowing the Regency Council.
