[QUOTE="meltinbradley, post: 4550680, member: 80012"] [b]thanks[/b] Thanks everyone for your replies. R1CO-The dread necromancer did spend the 120K to perform all the needed steps into lichdom. It did take all his money. I am very skimpy when it comes to giving out magical items and money. The only reason he was able to make that change was because they were looking for a artifact which they ended up finding because its crucial to the campaign and he sold it to a 3rd party for money. (This was very unexpected, but it is a evil campaign.) The value of the artifact was priceless so a price for a mere 120k was acceptable by the 3rd party interested in the artifact. The philactery is a childs doll. It was given to some random child in a random city to hold(without her knowledge). Later the child was murdered by the brother of the lich and now holds it and has some insurance against the lich now. (This is not known to the lich in game) I dont know the LA of the vampire spawn off hand at the moment I will have to get back to you. The druids alignment is neutral evil. And yes, under most circumstances he would find them revolting. The campaign is based on a greater evil threantening the world so all good and evil alike have somewhat joined forces to stop this evil. The PC's all have their own agenda. The lich doesnt want this "evil" to win because the lich wants to eventually rule for herself and not have to serve this new evil. The vampire wishes to redeem himself, the druid wishes to keep the environment as it is and doesnt want this unnatural and foriegn force in this world, and the spell thief could give a rats a$$ and is only out for money and power. Sorry for being unclear. Let me clarify, in my world going to any town or city, village, any populated place you will find no mage or cleric of higher then 10th level, with some exceptions. There are, however some who do not want to be found of higher level or those living in remote places. Because the PC's are working with the good guys there aren't to many paladins, and good clerics who are out for them. But on several occasions the PC's have killed key NPC's VERY carefully which consisted of clerics and paladins (mainly by the lich because she is chaotic evil) One thing that worked well was a vampire lord serving this evil had dominated some powerful good aligned clerics who destroyed the lich but as you know returned soon after.
