[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 8038231, member: 2209"] Law and Chaos can be viewed many different ways. You could for instance say Law follows orders and The Plan no matter what, while Chaos adapts, improvises, and innovates. Law sees one way forward, Chaos sees many, so complex plans are the purview of Chaos. :) The 2e one starts in Modron March and goes on to Dead Gods and is a pretty neat storyline for D&D cosmologically. My understanding of the 3.5 Expedition (I played and did not DM it) is that it only shares Lolth and the Demonwebs as shared elements of Q1, it involves different schemes and pulls in other demon lords as well. Of course the game I played in it was modified for our campaign and I have no idea how much of it was used or changed. The Demonomicon articles from 3.5 Dragon were pretty good, fairly in depth and took the demon lords in interesting directions. For the [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/51643/Fiendish-Codex-I-Hordes-of-the-Abyss-35?affiliate_id=17596']3.5 Fiendish Codex I Hordes of the Abyss[/URL] I believe they were fairly compatible and written by the same guys (just different power levels for the stats). [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/145326/Demonomicon-4e?affiliate_id=17596']4e's Demonomicon[/URL] is based on the different 4e cosmology and so details are different such as the Demon Lords at essence being Elemental Primordials warped by Tharizdun's Shard of Evil at the center of the Abyss instead of AD&D/3e possible interpretations as soul stuff in the CE plane. Grazzt in particular has a fantastic story as an Angel under Asmodeus, who became Asmodeus' right hand Devil after the uprising against the Unnamed God, who was then sent into the Abyss on a mission about the Shard, got corrupted by it, and became a top tier Demon Lord who might now fully hate devils or secretly be Asmodeus's man on the inside in the Abyss.
