[QUOTE="Shemeska, post: 5145900, member: 11697"] [B]Adorable, cute NPCs, potentially dangerously so[/B] Faerie Dragons with the mindset of 5 year old kids and a full Wish 1/day are a favorite of mine. I had a flock of eight of them as the somewhat incompetant hired help to manage the dungeon of a half-slaad great wyrm rust dragon. One of the faerie dragons showed up dressed in a fuzzy Ygorl costume, claiming to be Ygorl. Another dressed as Ssendaam, another as Chourst, another as Rrenbuu, etc. Mind you, Rrenbuu was actually there as a giant purple cane toad on another NPCs shoulder (unbeknownst to the PCs). And if it's not a faerie dragon, it's a mephit of some flavor, or an annoying imp, quasit, etc. [b]Risen Fiends[/b] I adore risen, or partially risen fiends and lapsed celestials. The only problem is, you're never entirely sure if any of them are telling the truth, and if so, how risen they actually are. Some flavor of neutral? Actually good? Brutally evil but with a slight flaw in that they actually care about some one thing? [b]NPC forces of nature that you don't fight[/b] Daru Ib Shamiq, Harishek ap Thulkesh, The Mother of Serpents, Apomps the Triple Aspected, The Lady of Pain, etc. Some NPCs you interact with in some capacity, but they're not normal characters. They're more akin to forces of nature that you're swempt up into their current, their sphere of influence and you hope to God that you manage to avoid being sucked under. They're plot devices, not monsters. [/QUOTE]
