Actually, if I were to tie Orcus to one of the sins (which I probably will), it'd be to sloth. He obviously doesn't exemplify it as well as Lupercio (even if by default), but the appearance fits, and the creation of undead, to me, has always niched rather nicely with sloth. Just an idea.

Oh, and thank you very much for your response, James. It's an immense help.


At various points in the Demonomicon series, a correlation between certain demons with certain sins was established. Looking through them, we have the following:

Sloth- Alkilith
Gluttony- Nabassu
Lust- Succubus
Wrath- Vrock
Envy- Glabrezu

Did the writers have any particular demons in mind for the missing Greed and Pride? Furthermore, beyond Malcanthet and Kostchtchie, does anyone have any decent ideas for Demon Lords connected with the sins?


I'm in need of a bit of help compiling things. I plan on running a truncated version of the Savage Tide, specifically Serpents of Scuttlecove to Prince of Demons, as an extension to Demonweb Pits. Specifically, I need help compiling the elements I need to introduce in the interconnecting adventure I'm writing. So far, I have the following:

The Vanderboren siblings, and their interplay
existance (and function?) of the shadow pearls
Harliss
The Sea Wyvern
Malcanthet's plots

I know I'm missing something. Anything you can think of?

If the Abyss were truely infinite, then it would encompass all possibilty.

False. There are an infinite number of numbers between 0 and 1. Yet that infinite amount does not compose the entirety of the numeric scale.


Excellent, thank you very much.


Sorry to bother anyone with a simple question, but does anyone know what the first completely third edition issue of Dragon was?

[quote=Azzy}Just keep in mind, that unless the "Field Guide" corrected the glaring mistake from the Jurassic Park movies, their velociraptors are way too big.

Call them deinonychuses and it's all good.

Entirely off-topic, I'll note that the original Jurassic Park used Gregory S. Paul's "Predatory Dinosaurs of the World" as a major source for it's carnivores. The author in it tended to clump fairly well-known dinosaurs into a single genus, most notably making Deinonychus a species of Velociraptor. This particular idea never really caught on in the mainstream, resulting in Jurassic Park having famously 'oversized' Velociraptors when the intention was to have their material as scientifically accurate as possible.


My group is 5 strong, including an NPC healer I gave them for much needed, well...healing?

So far, they include a:

Human Rogue 3 (going shadowdancer)
Human Barbarian 3 (Grappler)
Human Healer 3 (NPC)
Spellscale Sorcerer 3 (enchantment 'specialist')
Spellscale Sorcerer 3 (rayist)

They've been pretty much sweeping Jzadirune, and still haven't found the way down. They'll probably need a diplomat at some point, but I believe one of the sorcerers is planning on grabbing leadership, so that won't be a problem. No deaths yet, but they haven't really been any of the big encounters yet.
