[QUOTE="JiffyPopTart, post: 8504653, member: 4881"] I had a fairly powerful vampire, Zane Grayson, who the party encountered in a stripmined valley weeks travel into a desolate mountainous terrain. Unable to pass the adventure hook by, the PCs infiltrated the castle and tried to destroy the vampire and his lieutenants (all at once!). They were massive outgunned and illprepared and the encounter ended with a downed PC cleric and the rest of the party fleeing. The sailor couldn't resist the urge to save his companion and went back in on a rescue mission, but the rest of the party refused. The vampire turned the sailor into a lieutenant and offered the cleric a choice. He would kill him with honor (the vampire doesn't want to honk off any gods) or he would let him live to tend to the living slaves working the quarry alongside the undead. The cleric chose a life of slavery to help others. But the thing that makes the vampire the ultimate evil is that the stripmine was there because he knew that buried somewhere was a super powerful artifact that would give great power. Because the PC failed in their mission the vampire was able to find the artifact and use it to move to another reality and with his increased power take over the entire planet. Thus was born the story arc that linked my DnD world/campaign with my future planned Torg Eternity campaign, where Zane Grayson assumes the title of "The Gaunt Man" and with his darkness device Heketon he has conquered multple realities and has set his sights on Near Now Earth.
