Alright, my Pandemonium project is finally complete and I need a new focus for after exams. It's very likely that it will be planar again, but I'm okay with seeing other ideas posted. Please vote for one or more planes (or other concepts) that you'd like to see me homebrew. The currently accepted limit is three distinct votes.

Due to popular demand from last round, I have kept my promise and started this voting cycle with the three transitive planes.

Past homebrews:
Inevitables and Inexorables (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=91492)
Limbo: True Slaadi (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=92837)
Pandemonium: The Lamenti (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=94009)


Current Leader;Current Second;Current Third

Here's my list of votes:

1. The Infernal Battlefields of Acheron
2. Baator (but only the ancient Baatorians)
3. The equivalent of #2, but for the Celestials (not sure what plane this would fall under).

Pick your favorite one afroakuma.

arguskos, I'm going to categorize it under Celestia for the moment, if that's alright with you.

That works, just keep my preference in mind. :smallwink: (I like giving choices, since I find that given choices, people make what they want to, and the product is better for it)

1) Celestia
2) Carceri
3) Plane of Shadow

Also, should Limbo & Pandemonium be crossed off? I doubt you'd do them again if they won. :smallwink:

afroakuma
2008-11-12, 12:21 AM
streakster: Just the one? I authorized up to three.

Zeta: Good point. I am not going back to Pandemonium unless I missed something big. It took too long last time. :smallfrown:

streakster
2008-11-12, 12:24 AM
Ooh, sorry!

1. Celestia
2. Mechanus
3. Plane of Shadow

EDIT:



Zeta: Good point. I am not going back to Pandemonium unless I missed something big. It took too long last time. :smallfrown:

It was worth it, though. At least for me it was. Heck if I know anything about design or balance, but those Lamente were seriously cool, and the wind effects were an inspired touch.

afroakuma
2008-11-12, 12:26 AM
Oh, I felt it was worth it; I just never expected such a delay. Real life is a heck of a speed bump. :smallfrown:

Glad you enjoyed it though streakster.

Lot of support for the Upper Planes this time. Weird how the times change.

We need heroes to defeat your awesome villains afroakuma. :smallbiggrin:

afroakuma
2008-11-12, 02:17 PM
Celestials aren't always the most reliable for that. :smallwink:

I'm actually really pleased with my previous two projects, though, and whenever the material gets used, it's great.

Shadow, Ethereal, Astral

afroakuma

You are permitted to vote for just the one. If that is what you wish to do, I will file the single vote.

If you later decide you'd like to use the other two as well, feel free.

Plane of Shadow
as for my other two votes, I'll go with
Ethereal Plane
Astral Plane
Realy though the first is the only one worthy of mention.

Odd. The Ethereal and Astral were both highly supported last time.

Great idea ! But hard choice.

1.Beastlands
2.Mechanus
3.Arborea

Still a pronounced bias towards the good planes.

While to go before this poll closes; I expect good things.

Beastlands

Carceri. And Carceri and then, Carceri.

If triple voting doesn't count, then I'll vote for Acheron and Hades.


Would like to see you take on the positive energy though. Wonder if anything can be done with that...

streakster
2008-11-12, 07:07 PM
, then I'll vote for Acheron and Hades.


Acheron Hades is a totally awesome character, I agree.:smallbiggrin:

cnsvnc, write-in options are allowed. Did you want to vote for the Positive Energy Plane?

And no, triple voting is not allowed. Three distinct votes.

2008-11-12, 08:02 PM
Plane of Shadow, Beastlands, Mechanus, in that order.

I will also let it be known at if you go with Shadow or Beastlands, I'd like to work with you on this one.

afroakuma
2008-11-12, 08:16 PM
Accepted without hesitation, Fax.

Awesome, guys. The collaborations just keep coming!

Hey, whatever happened to that Footsteps e-magazine? Weren't you any editor on that, Fax?

I was. I am also notoriously bad at playing management. I do far better when given an outline and a deadline, rather than being the one making the outline and deadline.

As a Super-Lurker who has been admiring your work, I vote for the following:

Beastlands
Acheron

OK, I give in. I vote for Positive Energy. Scratch the (poor, lonely) vote of Hades.

Acheron, because all serve Wee-Jas in the end.

Just the one, Job? You are allowed two more.

cnsvnc: done and done.

I cast my votes for The Beastlands (Neat idea for a plane, but we rarely hear of it), Ysgard (Ditto), and Mechanus (I'd love to see a rework for it like you did for Limbo - plus, a villain I'm designing for a friend's campaign makes use of Mechanus and its denizens...)

Acheron's had a pretty consistent following every time. I hope there isn't any bias based on a certain promise I made. :smallamused:

Really amazed at the dropoff on Ethereal. Maybe next time.

I was going to say something about my statement earlier about working on Shadow/Beastlands with you tilting the votes, but...well, those were doing well before I said that. :smallwink:

A tough race indeed, but the winner is the Beastlands!

The project will commence shortly.

"Beastlands Redux, by Faxroakuma"

Or maybe "afrocelestis".

I'm fairly stoked. We'll see how this one pans out.
