I like it. I truly, truly do, Zaydos. You are a wonderful person for making me a depraved set of souls who seek to end life.

Re: GitP Regulars as Elder Evils!
Permission (Kazyan), and I would like to help, though the only person here I know enough about to write an Elder Evil for is Zaydos. So I'll take a crack at that when I'm not so tired.

Re: GitP Regulars as Elder Evils!
Millions of swords shed tears of blood that there is yet no elder evil to guide them into the hearts of their enemies.

Re: GitP Regulars as Elder Evils!
Thanks, Leliel; I believe this is the first "me as a thing" that anybody's done.
I am curious what your inspirations were; I like the goals and motivations, and I am guessing you've incorporated my surname for the storm-related effects (if not, excellent synergy anyway).
Now I shall have to plumb the (sadly shallow) depths of my knowledge of those who've given permission to see what I can come up with...
Incidentally - and this is not a complaint nor criticism - I pronounce it with a soft "g" and short "e"s, so it's phonetically "seh jehv."

Re: GitP Regulars as Elder Evils!
Excellent synergy.
Really, I was inspired by this game in development, That Which Sleeps, wherein you play as an Elder Evil in RTS form, trying to cause enough chaos to distract from you waking up. In your case, I was inspired by the character Sisyphus, one of the playable Old Ones-a human hero who absorbed the power of the inhuman tyrant he killed and became a worse tyrant before he was sealed away.
I figure that's something new enough, and I decided to go for Reverse-Cthulhu (he has all the aesthetics, but he hates aberrations and is driven by human motives..).My Homestuck role is Thane of Space of the Land of Insanity and Frogs.
The Malkavians would be proud.

Re: GitP Regulars as Elder Evils!
I have tried to introduce her to Eva, but it is hard at times given the general lack of good anime made from the manga. Very little in the way of good gif material. Also it is strange that you should pick the very picture that is the source material for my current avatar.
edit: then again the lack of good anime might explain the use of the same picture.Last edited by NeoPhoenix0; 2015-05-20 at 01:04 AM.

Re: GitP Regulars as Elder Evils!
The Fenris Brood
It is known that Loki the Trickster sired many children, the eight legged horse Sleipnir, the world devouring serpent Jormengand, The goddess of Niflheim Hel, and the most fearsome of beasts, the foul wolf Fenris (Kn. Religion DC 20). For a time, Odin attempted to raise the pup as a loyal hound, but Fenris proved too wily, too cunning and too evil to ever bow to any master. He grew so rapidly that the gods feared he would devour the sun itself. So the called upon the greatest of dwarven smiths to forge chains that would bind the beast. They tried three separate timed before finally tricking the giant wolf into his leash, costing the great god Tyr his hand in the process. This story is well known among the worshipers of the Norse Pantheon. What is not well known is the true level of Fenris' cunning and greed. The wily beast suspected foul play, and sought to usurp the place of the gods themselves, consuming all of creation if necessary (Kn. Religion DC 35). In preparation for any tricks of the gods, the wolf Fenris bore many offspring in secret (Kn. Religion or Nature DC 40) with many different primal spirits and natural born wolves. These children he spirited away and hid in the dark places of the world, where they sleep now until their hunger grows so great that it might consume the world.
Goals:
Though the Brood of Fenris slumbers now, one day their hunger will overtake them and they will burst forth to consume all of creation (Kn. Nature DC 40). Their bodies are buried in many places across the world, and accidentally disturbing one could lead to all of them being released suddenly. Not all of them are purely physical beings, some can possess wolves or dogs, or those who bear the curse of Lycanthropy (Kn. Nature DC 35).
Sign:
Slavering Fangs
Famine spreads across the world, wolves and dogs go rabid, lycanthropes lose control of their forms.
Faint: crop harvests begin to shrink the world over, growing seasons become shorter and rain occurs less often as the Fenris Brood leeches life energy from the world around them
Moderate: Wolves, Worgs, Dogs and other canines have a 25% chance of going insane each day, creatures that go insane are treated as if being under the effects of a Barbarian's Rage ability (treat the creatures effective barbarian level as being equal to their HD) save that this rage is not limited to a number of rounds per day and viewing any non-canine creature as an enemy.
Strong: Lycanthropes automatically revert to their animal form, and suffer the same 25% chance of insanity as described in the Moderate Sign. All lycanthropes automatically have their alignment shifted to Chaotic Evil.
Overwhelming: Crops cease to grow, plants wither and die, rivers dry up. All canine form creatures and lycanthropes become insane, suffering the effects of the Moderate Sign. Literal Swarms of wolves rove across the land, devouring anything in sight.
Malefic Property
Swarm of Teeth
The Brood of Fenris is treated as a Colossal+++ swarm composed of wolves of various sizes (between Small and Huge). These wolves may break off from the swarm to fight individually, but the Brood itself possesses all swarm traits and an improved swarm attack that deals 10d6 damage per round, which overcomes any form of damage reduction, even that possessed by gods. When the swarm is reduced to 1/2 hit points it becomes incorporeal, as the spirit wolves pull their brethren into the astral plane to lead the assault against the gods themselves. Only complete destruction of the swarm will stop
Tactics/Traits/Etc
The Brood of Fenris is a mindless parade of starving beasts that seek to consume all of creation. Its tactics are incredibly direct, it merely moves from place to place killing and eating anything before it. Frequently, bodies of the swarm will break off to chase down fleeing prey, but they never truly leave the swarm and always return to it. In combat, the swarm always seeks out the largest mass of flesh and focuses on that until it is destroyed, then moves on to the next largest and so on.

Re: GitP Regulars as Elder Evils!
Okay, okay. If it will stop the gif madness (as if anything could), Snowbluff can have death by yandere.
Yukina
Levistus, the Lord of the Fifth and the Prince of Betrayal, is one of the Nine Hells' most infamous rulers. Before his imprisonment in ice by Asmodeus, he was a master of connivance and manipulation, some argue even on par with the Lord of Nessus himself. But more than that, he was an emotional manipulator - he would often seduce others to gain information, or to bend them to his will. One of his greatest triumphs in that regard was a Marilith named Yukina.
Long before his punishment by Asmodeus, Levistus was a commander in the legions of the Hells in the Blood War, directing raids on the Abyss. It is unclear whether Levistus himself led the raid, or whether it was one of his loyal underlings, but when several powerful Demons were captured, tortured, and destroyed, Levistus took the credit. One captive from the raid, however, was spared; this was Yukina, a powerful Marilith general. For a Demon, Yukina seemed cold and calculating; this was a facade, however, for burning beneath the surface was the inexhaustible rage of the Demon.
Levistus spent the better part of a century breaking her. He would torture her, then show affection; he would deprive her, then shower her with gifts. In time, he shattered her mind completely. She became his devoted, adoring slave, his personal Marilith paramour, to be used one day and ignored the next. To him, she was a trophy; to her, he was the entirety of the cosmos.
When Asmodeus finally punished him, that world was shattered. Yukina, having learned to thrive and grown in strength in the Hells, went on a rampage, charging straight to Nessus to confront Asmodeus. But she could never hope to be a match for the Lord of Nessus, and he cast her out of the Hells, using a binding so powerful that she could never return.
Now acclimated to the Hells, Yukina could not return to the Abyss. Haunted by the thoughts of her tormented love, she could find no solace. She drew herself into seclusion in a dark corner of the planes, growing in power and madness, and seeking to inflict her pain upon all of creation.
Goals:
Yukina suffers from two things: Heartbreak and madness. Put simply, she wants everyone to suffer both. In abundance.
Sign:
Mad Love
Affection blooms throughout the world, but love is only a step away from obsession.
Effects:
Faint: Love is in the air! Each day, every intelligent creature in a romantic relationship enjoys a +1 morale bonus to all rolls which aid, serve, help, or protect their loved one. They must succeed a daily DC 2 Will save or take a -1 morale penalty to all rolls in opposition to, or to disobey, a loved one. The morale bonus does not apply to this save. Intelligent creatures not in a romantic relationship do not enjoy bonus or penalty, but feel an odd longing for romance.
Moderate: The heart wants. The morale bonus and penalty for those in relationships becomes +2 and -2, respectively. The DC to save against the penalty increases to 5. Those in romantic relationships must also make a daily Will save, DC 5; on failure, they become jealous, and suffer a -2 to all social interactions, believing any person might be a rival for their loved one's affections. The morale bonus does not apply to this save. Those not in romantic relationships must make a daily Will save, DC 5, or start to fixate on someone as their loved one. If they fail this save three days in a row, they treat this person as their loved one for purposes of this Sign, and gain the corresponding bonuses and penalties, as well as the save against jealousy.
Strong: You are mine alone! The morale bonus and penalty for being in a romantic relationship increases to +3 and -3, respectively, and the DC to save against the penalty increases to 8. The DC to save against jealousy increases to 8 as well, and the penalty to social interactions increases to -5. Additionally, if a creature in a romantic relationship observes someone interacting with his or her loved one, he or she must make a Will save, DC 8, or attack that person territorially; the attack need not be lethal, but the creature cannot stop until the rival is driven off. The morale bonus does not apply to this save. The DC for the save for those not in romantic relationships to develop a fixation increases to 8, and two consecutive failures are sufficient to develop the fixation.
Overwhelming: If I can't have you, no one will! The morale bonus for being in a romantic relationship increases to +5; the morale penalty ceases to function. The DC against jealousy increases to 20. When encountering any creature who has interacted with its loved one within the past 24 hours (to its knowledge), a creature must make the jealousy save or else attack its perceived rival with lethal force. If the creature sees its loved one interacting with another, it must make the jealousy save; on a failure perceives this as an ultimate betrayal, and attacks both the rival and the loved one with lethal force. The morale bonus does not apply to either save. If a creature kills its loved one, it is no longer in a romantic relationship. All creatures not in a romantic relationship must make a Will save, DC 20, upon meeting a new creature of any kind that might be desirable to it. (Standards vary, we don't judge.) On a failed save, they immediately fixate, and are treated as though they are in a romantic relationship. On a successful save, they are immune to this effect with respect to that specific creature for 24 hours. Should a creature remain not in a romantic relationship for three consecutive days, it must start making a daily Will save, DC 20, or die instantly of a broken heart.
Malefic Property:
In addition to the normal malefic property common to all Elder Evils, Yukina has Overwhelming Affection.
Overwhwelming Affection: Any creature not in a romantic relationship who comes within the range of this Malefic Property must make a Will save (DC 10 +1/2 Yukina's HD + Yukina's Charisma modifier) each hour or become overwhelmed with love for Yukina. They become fiercely protective, and will seek to prevent any hostility towards Yukina with lethal force. If a creature fails this save, it may try again in 5 rounds.
Any creature in a romantic relationship who comes within the range of this Malefic Property becomes convinced that its loved one has betrayed it in favor of Yukina, yet oddly bears Yukina no ill will. Such creatures must make a Will save (DC 10 +1/2 Yukina's HD + Yukina's Charisma modifier) every hour or cease their present course of action and seek out their loved one, to attack with lethal force for the betrayal. If it does not reach its loved one within 24 hours, it may attempt a new save once every 24 hours to convince itself that the betrayal was imagined. The morale bonus does not apply to these saves.
Traits/Tactics/Etc
Yukina, very simply, is mad. Upon the manifestation of her Strong Sign, she will personally manifest in the Prime Material Plane, and start marching across the countryside aimlessly. She draws no amusement from her actions, nor satisfaction; she has no overarching agenda or desire. She is simply mad with love and loss, and her madness radiates from her. By the time her Overwhelming Sign manifests, she will have seen enough "love" in the world that it will drive her into a fury; she will seek out population centers and slaughter those who haven't already killed each other out of misguided obsession.Last edited by Red Fel; 2015-05-20 at 09:09 AM.
