    Well sure, but then Evil puts extra build points in allergenic aura and pissing in your shoes.

    Handbook of Heroes #668: "Imposing"

    You might think that creature is a manticore, but judging by emotional state it's a #Mood Elemental.

    Including the name of the comic you linked, apparently
    “Evil is evil. Lesser, greater, middling, it's all the same. Proportions are negotiated, boundaries blurred. I'm not a pious hermit, I haven't done only good in my life. But if I'm to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all.”

    It may be niche, but it combos nicely with Favored Terrain: Fancy Ballroom.

    Handbook of Heroes #678: "Door Boss"

    My best "Door Boss" story was an Exalted group. Magitech door wouldn’t open.

    "OK. I’m going to roll War on the door.”

    GM: “How does War apply to this situation?”

    “I make war on the door.”

    GM: “I… Umm… Could you describe what you want to happen?”

    “I want the door to open!”

    The door did not open.

    If his big plan is poisoning a barbarian, it's safe to assume he dumped his Wisdom.

    I mean, the strategy isn't bad exactly, but the execution needs work.
    You know, little things, like not dangling the antidote in the target's face or not being within reach of someone wh can rip you in half one-handed.

    Dude is REALLY banking on winning initiative. This is the essential experience of playing an assassin.

    I prefer my Cleric in metal. Sure it's expensive, but you get more detail than the cheap plastics.

    Who needs heals, indeed.
    No one obviously.
    The only hitpoint that matters is that last one.
    And once it's gone healing won't cut it.

    On a second thought, maybe some healing magic would be helpful.
    Mr. Last Hitpoint needs his meatshields back.

    I like your line spacing, but we need to work on that rhyme structure. Hmmm....

    For the fattest heals, who has need?
    Neither I nor my party. And indeed
    The hit point that matters the most is your last,
    And once it's gone healing won't save your ass.

    Bullplop, Gary! That is a decidedly evil act. One more of those and I'm shifting your alignment to Chaotic Evil.

    I'm of two minds here, honestly.

    On the one hand, yeah, I'd definitely abuse the heck out of QoL spells like that too.
    On the other hand, at least use a version that has space for your wife, Wizard.
    Or, you know magic up her own bubble. Maybe for Cleric too.
    Fighter can suffer though. It's probably his fault anyway they're wading through the mud.

    Oh man... This would be a gnarly bit of RP.

    "Sure, I'll let you flavor up your own environmental protection bubble. It provides comfort, keeps your feet dry, and hedges out mosquitos. It's self-only though, and your wife is looking mutinous. So do you cast it? Well do ya, punk?"
