Re: Stupidly hilarious things in canon
If you guys like the Olidammara lore so much, you can read an article talking about him in Dragon #342. According to the article, the origins of the small creature with a carapice-like covering came about when he was robbing a vault owned by Zagag. Zagag transformed the god of thieves as punishment, though eventually Olidammara got better. Deciding that he liked the form, he would occasionally turn into it and it became another symbol for him.
If you feel like quoting something that I have said, you have my permission to use it. Unless it makes me look stupid.

Re: Stupidly hilarious things in canon
I was going to link this thread to the other 2 that have circulated, but funny enough, you started all 3. I am rather doubtful you are going to find much that the original that went on for pages missed.

Re: Stupidly hilarious things in canon
I always found it weird that lawful neutral creatures go to mechanus for their afterlife, because there's almost nothing there but gears, formians, and inevitables. I never knew what you're supposed to do there, just hang out and talk about law things? Or do you just become fodder for the formian mines?
Something I've never understood is why formians are the lawful neutral outsiders, since they're described as conquering slavers. Not exactly neutral behavior.
I haven't seen any official 3.5 content addressing where the Modrons went and if they're just gone now. Something interesting that might have something to do with it is the discussion of Primus in an issue of Dragon Magazine, which explained that Tenebrous destroyed him, leaving them without leadership.
Also, the whole Orcus/Tenebrous issue always seemed a bit foolish. Tenebrous is a deity powerful enough to upset the establishment, but Orcus is a Demon Lord who struggles to beat out Demogorgon.Kolyarut Avatar by Potatocubed.

Re: Stupidly hilarious things in canon
There was a web enhancement for 3.0 Manual of the Planes that clarified that yes, they're still around, and gave them stats.
http://archive.wizards.com/default.a...d/we/20010921a
To sum up - yes, Primus was killed, but there's a new Primus that replaces him.Last edited by hamishspence; 2017-06-24 at 02:02 AM.

Re: Stupidly hilarious things in canon
A Planar Shepherd10 permanently becomes an Outsider native to his plane he chose at level 1 (Lamannia, Dal Quor, etc.).
A Planar Shepherd9 can Wild Shape into any Elemental or Outsider native to his chosen plane.
Thus, a Planar Shepherd9 with enough Wild Shape boosters (but more likely a Planar Shepherd10) can Wild Shape into another Planar Shepherd10 of his chosen plane within the HD limit.Last edited by Endarire; 2017-06-24 at 04:25 PM.

Re: Stupidly hilarious things in canon
Because of botched (interrupted by adventurers) resurrection ritual, Orcus and Tenebrous got separated (like Tymora and Beshaba)
As a result - Orcus got life, but not divinity; Tenebrous - divinity, but not life
Tenebrous (pre-ritual) wrecked establishment because he discovered The Last Word - an utterance so powerful that it could destroy literally anybody; but The Last Word required true divinity, or it will destroy the user as well; so, Orcus nowadays uses lesser diluted variant of it, which allow saving throws, on successful save rebounds back to him, and available only a few times per day

Re: Stupidly hilarious things in canon
Libris Mortis have variants of regular Vampire; one is Savage Vampire
Dragon #348 have Savage Vampire (separate template)
Does it mean we can make Savage Savage Vampire?
Then I noticed Savage Creature template (Dungeon #140), actually, doesn't change type of base creature
So, Savage Savage Vampire Savage Creature? (It's so savage that you have to say it three times.)
For the extra fun, use Neanderthal as a base creature.
With Feral Creature template.
Savage Savage Vampire Savage Creature Feral Creature Neanderthal
How's it?

Re: Stupidly hilarious things in canon
How about a beguiler with levels in beguiler and five levels in scarlet corsair to get the scourge of the seas class feature, with the scourge of the seas feat, the vampire, savage vampire, savage vampire, savage and vampire lord creature templates?
So it's a beguiler beguiler savage savage vampire savage vampire vampire lord scourge of the seas scourge of the seas?
You can also have a dragon dragon dragon disciple dragon shaman purple dragon knight dragon descendant dragon ascendant dragon totem lorekeeper or a knight annointed knight mystic fire knight knight of the raven eldritch knight ruby knight vindicator knight of the lily knight of the sacred seal ruby rose knight knight of the chalice bone knight triadic knight knight of the iron glacier knight of the rose knight of the thorn vengeance knight darksong knight knight of the chalice knight of the skull thayan knight knight platinum knight knight protector knight of the crown knight of the flying hunt knight of tyr's holy judgment vengeance knight knight of the blue moon purple dragon knight knight of the pearl ascetic knight knight of the sword knight-errant of silverymoon... look, there are a lot of knights and I'm not going to list them all, plus you probably fall horribly in half of them by this point.
You can also be a shadow sun ninja ninja ninja spy ninja of the crescent moon.Last edited by Jormengand; 2017-06-28 at 07:29 PM.

Re: Stupidly hilarious things in canon
From the book:
Dustform creatures have one fatal weakness. A critical hit with a bludgeoning weapon forces the dustform creature to make a Will save to remain cohesive; otherwise it dissolves into lifeless dust again. The DC for the Will save is equal to 10 + damage dealt.Creator of the LA-assignment thread.

Re: Stupidly hilarious things in canon
Note: Beguiler is an Int-based class; Savage Savage Vampire Savage Creature have whopping -8 to Int
+10 Str is nice, but Beguiler have -4 Str and Small size, so unimpressive even as a bruiser
The best thing will, probably, be the +10 Dex, which, with Small size and racial +8 on Hide and Move Silently, can make it decent stealth specialist
I think you will need also somehow get access to Beguiling Influence invocation
Why not to add in Crimson Scourge, Scourge Maiden, and Weapon Master with Scourge as a weapon of choice?
Note: for being called Dungeons and Dragons, the game have lots and lots of "...dragon..." stuff, but nowhere close in number of "...dungeon..." stuff
A lot of those knights are not just alignment- and patron- incompatible, but also from completely different settings. Is there a point to mention them in the same character sheet?
Maybe, add in Rokugan Ninja?
Yes; but it doesn't help thematic consistency, and will at least bump CR up; likely, also move LA into double digit range
I doubt Beguiler is legal for Incarnate Construct trick: it's description says:This plump quadruped is about the size of a small dog. It is somewhat mouselike in appearance, with big, glistening black eyes, large ears, and a pointed snout.
Fortunately, good old Unseelie Fey should work like a magic (at the price of +1 CR, and with possible unexpectedness from Vision table)
