Gonna say Titan Mauler (Barbarian) for Herc, Ranger seems fine for Merida but maybe look for an archtype focusing on archery or survival like a battle scout. think Kristoff would be better off as a ranger personally though I could either way, Pocahontas could easily be a nature oracle if you want to have an easy way to explain Grandmother Willow

<p>Personally I would enjoy seeing something take place in Numeria, probably one of the most interesting nations that hasn't really been delved into. Same goes for the Mwangi Expanse, another place that gets mentioned pretty regularly but never really explored in any of the novels.

<p>As far as races go, where to begin? Aasimar, androids, dwarves, kitsune, and, perhaps most importantly, kobolds. Actually haven't seen anything dealing with Cayden Cailean or his ilk so I'd really like to see that change in the near future, just seems like he hasn't been very active compared to all the other good aligned deities which is a real shame since he has always struck me as being one of the most interesting gods.</p>

They're kind of meant to be the "here's what happens to the PCs if they weren't the PCs, and thus weren't the main characters of the campaign." If the PCs don't help, they do indeed break up and go their separate ways. If they live at all.
<p>As for Lavinia, what happens to her depends on the PCs as well. If they cut her loose, she'll end up staying at Farshore and building a brand new life there.

<p>It seemed like they were on the verge of breaking up as a group when they got to Farshore, I don't really imagine the incident in Scuttlecove improving things. Since I like to recycle notable NPC's into future adventures and campaigns (they also make good PC's)I thought it would be cool to establish what became of the Jade Ravens after Savage Tide so they could pop up from time to time in different adventures.</p>
<p>Kaskus I see remaining in Farshore for a few years to repay his debt to Lavinia (possibly any remaining PC's as well) before eventually returning to his clan.</p>
<p>Given his intense hatred of life outside the city I figure that Zan would probably return to Sasserine and become mercenary </p>
<p>Tolin's rather hard because his character is a bit harder to read and he has a couple of options available to him. We figure he could either disband Jade Ravens and relocate to another city, remain in Farshore and join the local militia (possibly putting him at odds with the PC that ended up marrying Lavinia), try to found his own House in Farshore and become nobility (likely making him a potential rival for the Vanderborens), return to Scuttlecove and join the Protectorate, or potential member of the house guard for the Vanderborens.</p>
<p>Liamae wound up getting knocked up in our campaign after a fling with one of the PC's which has opened a couple of options for her. Presently she can either relocate back to city of origin [Greyhawk?] to raise the child, return to Scuttlecove with Tolin and join Protectorate to help liberate the city and get revenge for everything that happened to her at the Birdcage (though the harpies were already whiped out), or remain in Farshore and assist Cessin in religious matters. Plans have been made for her kid to become an adventurer so we've also been discussing what kind of a parent she would be since the player is considering having the kid be either Chaotic Good or Neutral Evil.</p>So with Savage Tide over I've been wondering what to do with some of the surviving NPC's from the campaign, particularly the Jade Ravens since the party used a staff of life to resurrect Kaskus and managed to save Zan and Liamae before reuniting them all with Tolin.

<p>We've been trudging through this campaign since 05 I think, work coupled with some unforseen hiatus' and running Shackled City and Savage Tide around the same time (dad seemed to think a trifecta of epics was a good idea, now not so much) unfortunately put us behind schedule so the adventure is still ongoing...sorta.</p>
<p>The last time we played the party got their asses handed to them by Brazzemal resulting in most of the party fleeing, the capture of our cleric, and the death of our primary fighter.</p>
<p>In a nutshell several characters failed their save against Brazzemal's frightful presense and proceeded to panic leading to two of them running off and using the Ominous Fabler's helm of teleportation to escape the city (with Dragotha's phylactery), our mage (tiefling witch) wound up grabbing the rogue and teleporting them both to the furthest place he could think of at the time: Greyhawk; our cleric was driven insane after Brazzemal cast insanity and ended up getting captured, and our kobold vassal of Bahamut wound up getting ground to paste from a particularly noteworthy tail slap.</p>
<p>So now the party is scattered across the continent and don't really have any way of locating each other to get back together in time to stop the Age of Worms from kicking off. The two PC's that managed to score Dragotha's phylactery are presently on the run from Brazzemal, not to mention just about every other minion Dragotha has sent their way. The rogue and witch are currently still in Greyhawk trying to rally together help to prevent of Age of Worms, but they're essentially strangers in the city and the only people they really know are the survivors of the Champion's Games which ended rather badly. And of course our cleric is presently imprisoned in Wormcrawl Fissure and being interrogated by a very enraged Dragotha, at this point in time it is unclear what will wind up becoming of him as we've been discussing several possible ideas.</p>
<p>So at the moment it seems that the best hope we have for preventing Kyuss from rising or at least facing him is going to be a group of former NPC's led by the veterans of the previous group. We're actually going to have several adventures running parallel to each other dealing with everything that's going on in each of the seperate groups running around from this campaign, naturally all of it is going to tie into AoW.</p>Grats

<p>In the wake of our last major campaign I've been discussing introducing a new demon lord to fill the power vaccum caused when our group killed the last one.

<p>Been toying with the idea of borrowing some abilities from the different queens but from my understanding of Incubus they tend to be a bit more brutal than their female counterparts which kinda goes against the more seductive creature I have in mind. I suppose if it really comes down to it we could always borrow the concept of duality from Shackled City but I'm not sure how that would work for this.</p>

The party itself kinda broke apart during the last fight with two of the PC's relocating themselves halfway across the continent with no way of finding the rest of their party, two PC's teleporting themselves outside the immediate city they were in and being the primary target for being in possession of Dragotha's phylactery, one PC dead, and the last PC being driven insane and captured by the opposition. Since the campaign has been running for so long everyone kinda agreed to put the adventure on hiatus for a while and move on to something else but in the mean time we're still establishing everything that's going on with the PC's. Likewise since this particular PC has been involved in the campaign since it began and is rather crucial (he is one of the remaining three characters from the original party, now down to two) the PC's will have the oppurtunity to decide if they want to rescue him when they resume the adventure (at least the two characters close enough to what's going on to be involved in the adventure) though with everything that's happened I've been thinking about using the character as an opposing NPC. Barring that the only thing I can think to do with him is have him locked away somewhere as a prisoner or just kill him out right.</p>
<p>Don't really think that being a stronger form of confusion really covers the ramifications of what Insanity could possibly do all that well given all the possibilities you see from all of the demented characters you see running around. Haven't really seen any insane characters running around that were good aligned which is why I want to know if it would really effect alignment at all, think the closest I've seen has actually been Chaotic Neutral.</p>

<p>During the climax of our last adventure one of the PC's being driven insane from an insanity spell and captured by Brazzemal the Burning to pop up at a later date as an NPC. </p>
<p>From what I gathered reading the spell the effects of insanity are permanent however outside of it being a stronger version of confusion I haven't really been able to gleam any real useful information about characters suffering from this condition. I've gone through Heroes of Horror, the DMG, Lords of Madness, and Unearthed Arcana however none of them have really supplied the information I'm looking for.</p>
<p>My question is this, how does one determine the alignment for a character that has become insane? Would they be required to change their alignment to cope with their newfound condition and if so how far off would it have to be from their original alignment? Furthermore how does one go about deciding the exact nature of the afflicted's psychosis?</p>
<p>The character in question is a Chaotic Good cleric of Kord who I'm considering converting to a follower of Kyuss depending on what I can learn here.</p>Right I got a question about insanity and alignments

Basically what happened was our cleric of Pelor decided to attack my binder right before he could make a bid for the Crown. While he was busy attacking my binder our fighter made a mad dash for the Crown and attempted to claim it for herself which pretty much ended the fight as both cleric and binder turned their attention to her. Somehow in the brawl the cleric and fighter wound up teaming up against my binder early on, apparently deaming him the most dangerous threat. Rather than fight them both my binder opted to teleport a short distance away and claim the Crown for himself around the same time everyone else was trying to. </p>
<p>My only beef with what happened here is that the cleric should have been focused more on the fighter who was not only lawful evil but a werewolf rather than my chaotic neutral binder. I know that clerics don't like binders but the fact is that no one was really sure what my character was since I never bothered to tell them and he always did his bindings in secret. </p>
<p>What makes the situation complicated is that technically my character beat out everyone one competing for the title of Demon Prince, however as the person DMing the campaign is not our primary DM (ie our dad) depending who's DMing at the time he didn't ascend to demon lord status. </p>
<p>The general consensus is that my binder got interrupted while he was absorbing the power and wasn't able to claim it all but still acquired some unique abilities (according to the guy DMing STAP (my brother) after our dad said my binder wasn't ascending), someone else (Dagon I think, it's either him or a lesser demon) claimed the crown (high DM's ruling), or my binder managed to become the new Prince of Demons and wiped out the two characters that turned on him (my ruling as I succeeded the necessary roll and DM these games from time to time). It really depends who's DMing at the time.</p>Well that's actually kinda complicated since our party pretty much turned on each other as soon as the Crown of Power appeared.
