I'm currently running a game for my players themed on the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse. They have no idea that's the theme and just think they're shutting down random cults to level up. The are currently on the band of Ruin (named after War's horse, cause why not) and it's leader or "champion" is Hercules. The angry drunk from the myth. Not Disney.
For death I am planning a vecna - like character.
But Conquest and Famine have me stumped.
I was thinking a slick, silver tongued, fast talking demon or devil, based somewhat on the Bibles anti-christ, kind of character for Conquest. Idk I'm still open.
And Famine..... I'm lost. I want the cult, and ultimately it's leader to represent absolute taking. As in they cause famine by taking what others have. Possessions, loved ones, good health, their reputations. Literally everything. I was thinking a particularly powerful coven of hags. But again, I'm open.
I should also mention the leaders are not the big bads, they're just..... puppets being invisibly strung along by the 4. Who have been unknowingly bestowed with a microcosm of each of their respective horsemans power and "Domain"
Thanks in advance
