Well, the party has gotten some things in order and has made some arrangements and plans to attack Court City in full and not as a half-assed rescue mission because of a brain worm. Speaking of brain worms, the party just kinda shrugged their shoulders and forgot about that whole "Infernius going insane and running off" bit. Hmmm. Oh well. But anyway, everyone's got some ideas and plans to put in motion. Its too bad that Port Barry is currently surrounded one 4 fronts,... that's going to complicate things.
Welcome back to the Game thread, there's over 3 dozen of 'em by now, so pardon me if I skip the introductory formalities. If you want to join, or perhaps just join in on the shitposting cuz bored, feel free. I'm working on a metric to allow new players to get in without having to go through the process of full-on mapping out a character.

Why do NPC nightmares normally have such high Knowledge ranks? What does a field monster do with 21 ranks in Knowledge Arcana? Not that many creatures even have Knowledge as a skill. It's weird.

Vecna - Vecna, the god of secrets, is neutral evil. He is known as the Maimed Lord, the Whispered One, and the Master of All That is Secret and Hidden. Vecna rules that which is not meant to be known and that which people wish to keep secret. The domains he is associated with are Evil, Knowledge, and Magic. He usually appears as a lich who is missing his left hand and left eye. (that's canon pasta)
Vecna is an ex-mortal who was deified sometime between AD&D and 2nd edition (maybe earlier even). There are two artifacts associated with him (the Hand and Eye), and his MO is all about discovering (and then hoarding) any type of magical secrets.
Nerull - The god of death, Nerull, is neutral evil. He is known as the Reapoer, the Foe of All Good, Hater of Life, Bringer of Darkness, King of All Gloom, and Reaper of Flesh. Nerull is the patron of those who seek the greatest evil for their own enjoyment or gain. The domains he is associated with are Death, Evil, and Trickery.

GM, can we resume the God Emperor's task of eternally separating and sealing off the Material Plane from the Evil planes?

Yeah, I just finished reading both of their wikis.
Of course, Tracy doesn't actually know any of this yet, nor does she have any particular motivation to seek it out. I want her to make contact with the Hags first before she goes down the path of darkness.

That quest sounds like it would take centuries. It would probably piss-off Thez and a bunch of gods too.

Epic Spell seeds. The uber spells you use to create giga-uber spells and rituals.
like how Life is a seed for Gathering Of Maggots.

When will our caster be able to cast spells of this magnitude?

I'd have gone with Polymorph and Permanency in that event, but either works.
>>38201
That depends on the player proposing it. If the player says "I wanna do a thing", higher. If the player says "Character is going to perform a ritual to produce the following effects. The components and accessories include (blah) and would incorporate (blur blur)." then less.

That idea feels kind of better, desu. I like the idea of non-casters being able to create certain effects through careful planning.

It's too expensive for any party to cast though. It takes 11 casters contributing 9th level spell slots.

Flowers for Algernon is a book about a mentally retarded man who agrees to be a test subject in an experiment to increase IQ. The experiment successful raises his IQ all the way to superior or even genius level. It's been a while since I read it (eleven years) so I can't remember all of the plot, but I believe he undergoes a sort of loss of innocence thereafter, or starts to be disliked by others. The book ends with it being discovered the treatment slowly fades and kills lab rats, with the man losing his intelligence and probably destined to be killed by or left even dumber by the treatment

Also there is a bunch of introspection about how when one behaves in a particular manner others grow accustomed to it, though their manner of accustom doesn't necessarily fit the individual's, and how deviating from those customs cause strive and an upending of previously established norms,....

Anyway, a hoary steed is basically exactly what regular Tracy is, a small blue-ish horse, only it's Ice type.
