[QUOTE="BlackSeed_Vash, post: 7120347, member: 33580"] In preparation for #3, you might want to find someone who can cast Contingency, Permanency and Sending for you. The three best options for triggering the Contingency are: [1] When you speak are particular word or phrase. Pros - If you tell the Blackguard about it, you hold a credible threat over his head. If you don't tell the Blackguard, you can get the last laugh when he asks why you said (For example: armadillo farts). Cons - You are killed before you can speak and/or in an area of Silence before being killed. Can be dispelled. [2] The next time the Blackguard attacks you. Pros - If you tell the Blackguard about it, you hold a credible threat over his head. If you don't tell the Blackguard, you can get the last laugh after he attacks... telling him that was the first step towards a life of persecution. Cons - He can hire someone else to kill you or just allow not protect/stop another enemy from doing to deed. [3] When you die. Pros - If you tell the Blackguard about it, he is incentivized to keep you alive. If you don't tell the Blackguard, it will be next to impossible for him to prevent. Cons - You're dead. Can result in player conflict. The Blackguard is not the reason you died. Just remember that you have to "write" the message and pick the target when the spell is first cast, not at the time of the trigger. This does put some risk of the target of the Sending being dead already. [/QUOTE]
