Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
It's too bad Black Karma Curse is already a cleric spell, because that would be perfect for the Depression domain. Maybe you could make that the Depression domain power -- casting Black Karma Curse spontaneously.
I mean, it does fit -- after all, there was that computer that Marvin talked into committing suicide.Last edited by Miles Invictus; 2006-12-14 at 06:34 PM.

Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
I think God of Emos would work better than Chronic Depression because that seems to be the flavor. I like it quite a bit; funny, but workable.

Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
Depression AND apathy? And to think I thought those were mutually exclusive.
Nivram's followers would tear eachother apart emotionally.
The only thing worse would be a materialist god.

Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
Yep, though his followers also have mood swings between depression and apathy.

Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
Black Karma Curse is in the Player's Handbook II. Not much to tell -- it's a 2nd-level spell. You fail a Will save and smack yourself in the face with your best weapon.

Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
When I first saw the title my mind jumped to Nirvana (the band, not the state of mind) and saw the god as a blonde guy who plays a sky blue guitar left handed.
Upon further investigation I realised that it was indeed marvin of course.

Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
The Steel Pillar was the one that was Marvin's leg. I got the impression it was shaped like a peg-leg, so I say the holy symbol should be "a steel spike, point downwards". That or a diode.

Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
For the sarcasm domain you might also want to add Bluff as a class skill.

Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
Heheh, my favoured weapon is definitely sarcasm.
This is amusing, and of course Douglas-Adamsness is next to godliness...
On a completely different note: If you wanted this diety as part of your game you'd have to define how a character uses sarcasm as a weapon (without the sarcasm domain). Perhaps a class that specialises in verbal attacks... (that's an idea I might pursue...)

You could see the Dashing Swordsman PrC as a reference.

Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
Perhaps sarcasm works by converting sarcastic quips to sneak attack-style damage?

Re: [god] Nivram, god of Chronic Depression
Well just for reference, I actually believe that there is a god off non-believers. At least in WHFB. :)
Maybe the Avatar of the god could be Marvin.( "What?! Not that old !! Because of your multiple trecks trough time I'm now 6 times as old as the universe" :) )
He really was both sarcastic and in chronic depression
