I weepo for Meepo. :(

I was seriously looking forward to a Tarrasque vs. Meepo match-up. Talk about David and Goliath!! Ah well, guess Mr. T will have to walk all over the rest now, unhindered.

Pardon me for asking, but what's the attraction of the stone giant paladin?

The tarrasque is pretty much limited to eating you, and there's hordes of things in D&D that do that.

The stone giant paladin picks up pieces of ruined churches, and hurls them at his foes in the name of righteousness. He takes frescoed pieces of an ex-cathedral's ceiling and rams them down the throat of evil.

That's seriously badass.
 


Score one win for the sexually frustrated 12-year olds. :\ And, of course, for the good people all over the world who really think that a Succubus Paladin is a great idea. Heh.

Really, this contest shows that power-crazy concepts (Sucky Paladin, Drow Lich) will always be more popular than cool NPCs with personality (Meepo, Ninja, Pirate with Zombie Parrot(TM)). Leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

I couldn´t care less who wins now, although I sympathize with Mr. T. He´s an honest, down-to-earth engine of destruction without ridiculous class/race/template combo.
 

I wouldn't call some of the NPCs - Meepo, the robot Ninja, the beholder pirate - as having personality insomuch as silliness going for them.

Then there's the succubus, who I don't really think is a power-crazy concept insomuch as just stupid - though only because of the vrock mount. That's what pushes it for me.

For my part, I was all about the marilith dervish. Yeah, rather powerful, but there was a disturbing appropriateness to her combination.

For my part, I voted for Meepo. I figured if all the nits who are rooting for the big, stupid monsters who offer little more than a fight were going to trudge ahead with the tarrasque, than the tarrasque deserved Meepo doom.

However, I still desire something, anything other than Mr. "Chomp, chomp, wish and/or miracle spell."

So I'll go for the succubus paladin. If only because of the echoes of Fall-From-Grace that she entails. Even if the stupid vrock mount needs to go.
