GitP Regulars as Elder Evils!

[Red Fel]

That's a really bad idea LP. If you let Red take over the local governments, he's just going to form a new Cheliax with himself at the head.

Yes! I'll form the head!

Well then we'll see if they've been doing a good job once Red turns up for a "surprise inspection". Either they've got a nice ship-shape organization or they've gone totally wonky and I get to Smite Evil.

There is no part of this plan that I don't like.

Aren't you required to smite evil anyway? I'm pretty sure your oath means you can't associate with Red Fel unless you're trying to turn him to the side of good.

"Trying" is a fun word.

I've thought this through thoroughly.

• My Detect Evil never pings him as evil.
• He respects the law.
• He had never done anything evil in front of me.
• Whenever I try to sense motive, he always seems honest.
• He offers to go on road trips.

He used to ping as evil, but I think I've converted him. He also started wearing this funny ring that makes him all kinds of gray when I detect evil. I'm sure it's a coincidence.

"Coincidence" is a fun word, too.

Edit:
Also, aren't we all technically evil in this thread?

Yes. We all float down here.

[LoyalPaladin]

There is no part of this plan that I don't like.

I thought you'd like it.

I've been meaning to ask you, Red. What is your favored class?

[Elricaltovilla]

Well I'd go but I already have a road trip planned this weekend. Super excited for it.

[LoyalPaladin]

Well I'd go but I already have a road trip planned this weekend. Super excited for it.

You will be missed.

Well we better pack up before Snowbluff shows up. The last thing we need is Chaos to interrupt our diplomatic investigation.

[Red Fel]

I thought you'd like it.

I've been meaning to ask you, Red. What is your favored class?

Well, according to this, I'm a variant Tiefling heritage, so my favored classes are Alchemist, Cleric, Druid, Inquisitor, Magus, Paladin, Rogue, Sorcerer, Summoner, Witch, and Wizard.

Honestly, though? I go with Warblade.

[Zaydos]

Ooh that gives me ideas.

To the Tome of Battle!

Wait when/if we do ACFs/archetypes are we limited to 1 each or... how many classes can we make someone an ACF for? I mean Fel has to be a Warlock ACF at some point, the flavor demands it, and a warblade it seems. Probably a bard too.

[LoyalPaladin]

Well, according to this, I'm a variant Tiefling heritage, so my favored classes are Alchemist, Cleric, Druid, Inquisitor, Magus, Paladin, Rogue, Sorcerer, Summoner, Witch, and Wizard.

Ah, I bet you'll never guess what the Paladine's favored class is.

Honestly, though? I go with Warblade.

Oooo. Good choice. That is definitely my favorite Martial Adept. Warlord from PoW is a cool class too, but I am a 3.5 guy.

Wait when/if we do ACFs/archetypes are we limited to 1 each or... how many classes can we make someone an ACF for?

I think Snow has a long-standing rule that reads similar to "There is no such thing as dibs and any individual may have any number of X written for them."

[Threadnaught]

Are we really doing this? Red Fel as the head, me as the crown with the super laser gem?

Also ACFs, I hope I get more ACFs than Elder Evils.


As a country, I'd be a barren wasteland from all the experiments, a dozen nukes being fired at some guy who can absorb kinetic and heat energy, just to see if they can absorb nukes.

What happens if we build a giant space fortress and bombard the planet a little?
Can we build a giant tower into space to dock with the fortress?
How many Wights is enough to protect a city from invaders and how many is too many?
Can Warforged breed?
Can Undead breed?
Should Intelligent Items have rights written into law?
How did the Mourning happen?
Let's make a Dead Magic Zone Bomb!
What is that fog?
Why is it killing everyone?
So that's how.

[LoyalPaladin]

Let's make a Dead Wild Magic Zone Bomb!

This is awfully chaotic of me, but I fixed that for you.

Hmm.. I feel I must answer.

You'd piss someone off. Could come back to bite if not careful.

Can we build a giant tower into space to dock with the fortress?

Yes

How many Wights is enough to protect a city from invaders and how many is too many?

You can never have too many, can you?

Can Warforged breed?

Yes. Because magic.

Can Undead breed?

Yes. Because magic. (Gentle repose upon death and continuing to regularly cast it helps, I would think)

Should Intelligent Items have rights written into law?

Yes?

How did the Mourning happen?

The sun rose.

Let's make a Dead Magic Zone Bomb!

Why not?

What is that fog?

Who knows?

Why is it killing everyone?

Because the campaign is over, or perhaps it is just beginning.

[Zaydos]

I can populate your country

Also seriously I just realized I had 5 disciplines missing from my extended sig.

[Red Fel]

Ah, I bet you'll never guess what the Paladine's favored class is.

Yeah, you're right, Bloodstorm Blade is a pretty predictable choice. When LoyalPaladin throws his mighty shieeeeeeeld...

Oooo. Good choice.

No. Evil. Evil. This isn't hard!

That is definitely my favorite Martial Adept. Warlord from PoW is a cool class too, but I am a 3.5 guy.

Yeah, if I had to go with PoW, I'd go with Warder, just because awesome. Seriously awesome. Tactical, controlling, powerful, really an excellent exemplification of melee.

But my background is in 3.5, so Warblade.

I think Snow has a long-standing rule that reads similar to "There is no such thing as dibs and any individual may have any number of X written for them."

Seriously. Have you seen my sig? There are fo-



Dangit, Jean-Luc, for the last time, no. Deities. There are four deities.

Can't take you anywhere.

[Morph Bark]

Zaydos, let's face it, you can populate more than a country with your dragons. You'd need to create a campaign setting specifically for them.

...[hot damn snap]...

Oh wow, Socratov, you work quick. And, honestly, there's not a thing in there that I don't like. Mechanically or flavour-wise. Really nice background story that combines really well with the mechanics. That would have some very interesting interaction with a campaign, too. Thank you! Great job!

This reminds me of the time I convinced my DM that a TN necromancer minion master could totally adventure with a standard paladin. That was a fun campaign...it's too bad the paladin player got sick of paladins for some reason.

thanks! Well, you know how it works, pay it forward and all that

[LoyalPaladin]

When LoyalPaladin throws his mighty shieeeeeeeld...

Hahaha. This makes me want to play a Bloodstorm Blade.

No. Evil. Evil. This isn't hard!

E... Ev... Evi... SMITE?!

Yeah, if I had to go with PoW, I'd go with Warder, just because awesome. Seriously awesome. Tactical, controlling, powerful, really an excellent exemplification of melee.

I switched to one of the Archetypes for Warlord in a PF game I'm in. So I got Golden Lion and Iron Tortoise. No regrets.

I'm on explicit orders from my deity to adventure with a NE bard. At least, temporarily. I've also been told there will be a time where I have to run him through.

So, you're counting down the days?

[Threadnaught]

If we do ACFs, can I call dibs on Loyal Paladin?

That is, Loyal Paladin as an ACF for LoyalPaladin, not LoyalPaladin as a source for ACFs. There's a space.

[Elricaltovilla]

No dibs. It's in the rules.

[LoyalPaladin]

Well, I would love to be able to save his soul. But if Torm says swing the sword, I'm swinging the sword. He isn't exactly the best traveling companion.

If we do ACFs, can I call dibs on Loyal Paladin?

No dibs... but you're more than welcome to write one for this LoyalPaladin guy. I hear he is pretty awesome. A true exemplar of the law. Both gentleman and scholar.

That it is.

[Elricaltovilla]

With 8 INT.

[LoyalPaladin]

With 8 INT.

Shots fired. I'll have you know, my INT is 10.

[Elricaltovilla]

My mistake. But y'know that's two whole points that could have gone into your charisma or strength.

[LoyalPaladin]

My mistake. But y'know that's two whole points that could have gone into your charisma or strength.

Eh, it was a 34 PB. I got a good spread with no negatives. Haha.

[Elricaltovilla]

Eh, it was a 34 PB. I got a good spread with no negatives. Haha.

High point buys are so nice. I hate having negative modifiers unless I can build around them somehow. Like my Warder with +17 to diplomacy and a -1 CHA modifier.

[LoyalPaladin]

Yeah... my original spread was something like:
STR: 18
DEX: 10
CON: 14
INT: 10
WIS: 14
CHA: 14

[Elricaltovilla]

Yeah... my original spread was something like:

Nice spread. Reminds me how much I hate that Combat Reflexes keys off Dex normally.

[LoyalPaladin]

Nice spread.

I was really lucky, we got a potion that adds a d4 strength part way into our campaign and I rolled a 4, so now I have 22 natural strength. (I also bought a +4 Belt of Giant Strength) I am putting ALL my inherent bonus ability points in charisma. With a +6 Cloack of Charisma I've got a 22 right now.

Reminds me how much I hate that Combat Reflexes keys off Dex normally.

Yeah. I'm not a huge Combat Reflexes guy, but we have a Duelist/Swashbuckler who digs it.

[Elricaltovilla]

I find combat reflexes incredibly useful on my warder. I probably get off at least as many AoOs each round as I do regular attacks, probably more. Of course, I also have Mythic Combat Reflexes, so my dex score wouldn't even matter if I wasn't a warder.

My goal is usually to hit myself with Divine Sacrifice and then smite my enemy 3 times in a row. With my shiny new Large +5 Holy Avenger (Greatsword), I do pretty darn well.
