[QUOTE="Xarlen, post: 409036, member: 1060"] Woops! I mixed up Giant with Plant. :) I have been inspired to create a villain for a low-mid level game, because this thread and paticularly the Ripper gave me the idea. Mr. Bloody. Mr. Bloody is the Boogeyman, more or less. A tall man (atleast, he was), pale skin, black tongue, yellow teeth, stringy gray hair on a balding scap. He wears a wide brimmed hat, a dirty, tattered long coat, a tie, and dirty cloths, and fingerless gloves (like a hobo). Mr Bloody is a mean man. He stalks children, or adults, chasing you, or coming to you in the night. Sometimes, your screams can't even be heard, other times when you run away, he chases you, and catches you easy! He will taunt you, freeze you in place, and carve you up with his dagger. Eat you while you watch. Sometimes, you can't even see him, but he's there, and he gets you. You could see him on the street at night, across the road, just watching you, or smiling at you through the window. Mr. Bloody is patient. When Mr. Bloody is done with you, your grimace is turned into a grin, because of his dagger. A Ripper (As described above), but give him a few spell likes, or make him an Illusionist, with a litthe fighter thrown in perhaps. Perfered spells of the illusionary school (Ghost sound for footsteps, clawings), Minor/major illusion, Blindness/Deafness. Slow, Grease, Phantasmal killer, Hold Person are also suggested, as is Silence, either from a ring or a spell-like. If he's going to be fighting, a Subdual Substituted Fireball works perfect, centered on him. Mr. Bloody could start stalking a party out of personal reasons (They went ghoul hunting), maybe they unleashed him, or saved a victim of his. Or maybe it's on a lark. But Mr. Bloody is a ruthless, cruel man. Attacking characters when they go to the privy, when they are up on watch. So cruel that he's not against paralyzing someone, taking their weapon, and killing someone with said weapon, to frame the PC. Then come to them when they are in jail. Mr. Bloody, for you GMs, is a cross between Freddy Krauger, the Tall Man, and Jack the Ripper. A cruel, cat-and-mouse sadist. [/QUOTE]
