    All I can say:

    "He's unlocking me! HE'S UNLOCKING ME!!!"

    Made me laugh too hard.

    My guess for Ardon's round:

    Spoiler
    Show
    All three of the other party members decide to get it over with and slaughter Ardon. But then it turns out to be real... Well, maybe not (if it's a nightmare spirit it might not have any power over individuals that are awake, kinda like the Dream Lord. But I doubt the party is going to have much hesitation in killing Ardon regardless.

    He's Meepo, as seen in Sunless Citadel, or similiar.

    You know, I don't think Freddy (which is what I'm calling the nightmare spirit until we're given a proper name for it) is going to have to do anything at all to get them to beat all Nine Hells out of Ardon.

    I have a guess:

    Spoiler
    Show
    Their enemy is someone who was sent to kill Ardon.
    Since whoever-it-is can only cast illusions, his goal is to get the others in the group to kill Ardon.

    So the first three rounds were to convince the group that the proper way to finish the tests is to kill the illusion.
    But in the last round, the Ardon that will appear will be real.

    It should be funny to see him trying to convince them NOT to kill this time.

    So, looks like Freddy really didn't make anyone look like a monster.

    Unless the real combatant is 45 or something...

    You can always go read Dominic Deegan if you require hate.


    Growth for Ardon is good though, have a character be bad too long, and it gets annoying.

    Don't worry, I'm sure it'll be temporary.

    In the meantime, Dominic Deegan and CAD have plenty of Haterade if your glass is getting low.

    It's not that I "Require" hate (all I'd have to do in that case is start reading Marvel Comics again outside of the one new X-book where Jubilee's gonna be leading a team and Deadpool or read a large chunk of the new 52 that I gave up on some time ago.), it's that I'm so used to the steady level of hate that I'm actually still working out how to process getting a win and feeling, liking+victory in the absence of hate. (I liked Elle and Odie and Peanut and to a more marginal extent 45 at the start so there wasn't a thing there.)

    I noticed the 'us' too. Little touches like that are why I like Ardon as a character. I wouldn't say he's got a heart of gold, but he's not entirely heartless.

    Actually, another thing I noticed is that Ardon says "for the love of god". Shouldn't that be gods (or at least mention a specific god), or is Ardon monotheistic?

    he is figuring that maybe the skulls have individual power of their own, so that they would all function as an individual spider-ward rather than one big one when all connected together, that the big spider ward is just a bunch of little ones clustered together.

    might just work.

    or? might not and we see Ardon running around afraid of spiders in a hilarious fashion, either one works.

    Edit: aaand didn't work, but no running around in a hilarious fashion. aaw.

    I usually have the characters use the turns of phrase most common to real life because I think it sounds more natural. Also because people playing a character in D&D would often do so as well.

    I have no idea why I chose to address this one point and not anything else from the thread.

    Because it's not in any way a plot related issue but simply a small choice on the writer's level so it doesn't in any way ruin or steer the speuclation to address it?

    I can help but feel that this plan was too obvious. I mean, once its been figured out that the enemy's ability is to control your dreams and killing your friend causes you to awake with no actual damage taken, where else can the enemy go other than trick people into killing their friends for real? Ardon figuring things out speaks less to his intelligence, and more to the stupidity of the spirit's former victims.
    "It doesn't matter how much you struggle or strive,
    You'll never get out of life alive,
    So please kill yourself and save this land,
    And your last mission is to spread my command,"
