My Runewell is used to dispose of all of my enemy the Runelord of Beta's minions only...BETA!!!
So when you dispose of a minion in a runewell, does that keep your clock set until it runs out of charges and starts blinking 12:00?

This is silly. I can't possibly keep up with you all. And if I can't keep up, then there's obviously something wrong with all of you. I think this thread could use some serious redecorating. Where did I put that sphere of annihilation?

Here have a copy of "History of the Runelords", remember to stay tuned after the credits to watch a 30 minute presentation on the making of "History of the Runelords"
::telepathically:: Didn't we teach you anything?!? You're supposed to be flushing them down your runewells. And if you keep your runewells in your bathroom, we don't want to know what else you've been flushing down there. See, this is the kind of thing that made us come and take our magic back.
But I wanna play with them first! And I never said my runewell was in my bathroom. Boudoir yes, bathroom no.
I think squidy-face just needs a hug. *hugs*

This is wrong on so many levels.

So, you would "hug" an Aboleth, but not a disembodied head?
That is life-ist, Lust.

Clearly, Emperor Xin is the past Xin, travelled forward in time to deal with you incompetent, squabbling, destructive, lazy, treacherous, promiscuous, disgusting things.
I, on the other hand, am what you might call the "disembodied head of the former Emperor Xin come back to haunt you as punishment for your sins". (Please note my Avatar...)
Precisely. See my TARDIS over there? There was a conjuncture alert, and clearly, this is it.
BEAWARE Runelords! Or I shall give you, er, um, SEND my head after you!

.You seem to have annoyed or tantalised one of the other Runelords so much that they have cancelled or stolen your runelord guise.
I don't need divinations to tell you who the most likely candidates for that were.
Hey, I may be the Runelord of Greed, but I tell people when I take their stuff.
By the way, do you suppose that we should pour water on those sheet of paper that Sloth's minion currently seems to be inflicting paper-cuts on the First King with, or do we watch for a while longer? Personally I'm for watching.
Let's watch. When's the last time you heard about a severed head dying of paper cuts?

I told you, Gary Teter needs to be eliminated. He holds too much power over this domain.

::telepathically:: Don't think we don't know what you're trying to do. Didn't the last several people you "hugged" end up in your well?
Remember, hugging counts as a grapple, and we have extra appendages.

CR 30+ Runelord vs an everyday aboleth named Joe. Oooh. Interesting mismatch.
Joe could be an Paragon Gargantuan Advanced Aboleth Wiz10 (CR 34).
Go, Joe!

Remember, hugging counts as a grapple, and we have extra appendages.<Rummages> Somewhere around here I have stashed a stone bust of an Olman deity from another world, for the eventuality of dealing with any uppity aboleths. Unlike some, I haven't spent all my time snoozing for the past few thousand years, but bagging useful items.
<checks, but since Runelord of Lust currently seems to be having much the better of the encounter, holds off on deploying the civilisation destroying weapon for now >

And it is yet to be seen who is having the better of this "encounter" -- we have yet to count tenticles.

You are not permitted to rest. Relaxation and sleep are for those in power! Wake up or suffer the consequences. I don't want to be forced to set my other minions on you with their pieces of paper...
Fellow runelords:
Can we at least agree that someone needs to send a message to the Paizo staff informing them that we are their new masters- their immediate and terrible (if they disobey us) future- and that they should count themeselves lucky for not being taxed for the privilige of writing about us?
I know that some of you will have difficulties rousing yourselves to agree (or otherwise) so I would think that a majority verdict from amongst the classic seven of you would suffice.
Yes. We should write a Declaration of Ownership.
"When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for seven people to dissolve the bands which have controlled their actions on a forum, and to assume the powers of the earth, the separate and greater station to which the laws of the internet and of the gods do not entitle them, a lack of decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the takeover."

It's okay, I've allready sent them a video diary of this thread. why do you think they started fighting back?

My first Decree as the Former High King of Paizo is: More Artwork Featuring Disembodied Heads!
Finally, I can stop counting!
You mean the aboleths want:
a lack of decent respect to the opinions of mankindextended to include a lack of decent respect for the opinions of aberrations as well? You want to be ignored and undervalued?
Well I'm fairy certain that my fellow Runelords will be happy to address that concern, and to show a lack of decent respect for aberrations, as well, if you're certain that that's what you want....
I thought aberrations disrespected each-other already? Don't they have some sort of "I am the pinnacle of my kind" ego-trip going for them?
So all we have to do is set them against each-other!
Quick question, how many "Runelords" are there now?
I'm counting 10, but maybe I missed some.

::telepathically:: "Mankind," "people," it's all very species-ist, whatever the context. But so long as you're fairy certain, we'll let it slide.
In any event, since most of the runelords don't seem to be minding their posts, we'll take a vote in favor. If we end up with too many votes, we'll just smite one of them.
I find your use of the seven deadly sins amusing.
Quick question, how many "Runelords" are there now?
I'm counting 10, but maybe I missed some.
One of them apparently specialises in 'social injustice', and another one in 'VHS', although I'm not sure what schools of magic those are associated with? Maybe one of them's a psionicist?
So far, yes, you seem to have acquired a couple of extra Runelords from somewhere. (It's not my fault that my mastery of Divination skills were so great that I managed to obfuscate myself out of Thassilonian history... Wait a moment, actually that was my 'fault', come to think of it.)
Was that how it went? I thought when we made our neat club you submitted an application titled "Divination: Knowing is Half the Battle", the Runelord of Pride said "Lame, no-one specializes in divination, it is weak." The Runelord of Greed co-opted your portfolio, and that was that.
Now, mind you my memory is a little hazy, being a disembodied head and all.
You old farts still there? Your time has past. Your mission statements are poorly written and have spelling errors. You don't know how to hold a proper meeting. Powerpoint anyone? The overhead is not for eating, Sloth. It's not productive to blast it to tinders, Wrath. And... just no, Lust. Oh, and Greed: I know it looks better as solid gold, but we did need those electrical parts to stay in their own elements. I know all this is new for you, you just did that old-fashioned goleming back in your day where you use a simple material and build everything from it, but that's so last aeon. Dead things are really dead. As are undead things. Tinkering with them is just a dull hobby. Biomass, now that stuff has promises.
Your attempts failed. It's our time now.
People, we have to move with the times. Those rune giants were a nice touch, but just breeding them doesn't get you anywhere. Takes millenia to have real results.
Just look here what I did after only 3 generations! The two extra arms mean they can wield another pair of weapons, or another big one. Or even a shield. Or they can cast spells while fighting. I managed to increase the weight of their brain by 250%, half of which is located in a second brain deep within the torso. The upper one is redundant now. The dual-brain solution means that they can do two sets of actions at the same time. And the best thing: With the right alterations, we can get them in nearly every size! Need to hunt down kobolds? Have the small or tiny variety. Oliphaunt giving you trouble? The first 300' rune giant is nearly out of the vat now.
Don't get me wrong, guys: I don't want you gone. You can find work in the New Corporation. That old empire thing doesn't work today. We have to move with the times. Social Injustice can tell you how you can conquer people without having to spill a single drop of blood. Of course, if you still want to spill blood, you can do it in your free time. Recreation is always important.
Wrath: I'm going to put you into collection. You have the right attitude to get our debtors to pay in time.
Gluttony: Until I managed to make our cheap labour immortal through my biothaumic arts, you and yours can keep the people in work if they opt for early retirement by dying, the lazy bastards. There's no death clause in our work contracts, make sure they keep up their end of the bargain.
Pride: You'll work on our corporate image and do advertising.
Envy: Two words. Market Research. Find out what the others have, and make sure we get it, too.
Greed: I'm sure you'll make a great Financial Director.
Sloth: Uhm.... just sit there. If you can get around it, make your people conjure up some more cheap labour in peak times or for the more fatal assignments. Summoned labour doesn't want social security and all that crap.
Lust: In my office. And tell my secretary that no one is to disturb us when you walk past her on the way in.
It would appear these . . . things are invading my, I mean, our capital. Any suggestions on how to remove them? I could make some lovely gold statues . . .
Those are mine. Early drafts. I'm always open for suggestions on how to improve them.
I thought aberrations disrespected each-other already? Don't they have some sort of "I am the pinnacle of my kind" ego-trip going for them?
Pinnacle of a kind? No such thing. Always room for improvement. Evolving's big these days. Just let me do my job.
::telepathically:: "Mankind," "people," it's all very species-ist, whatever the context.
Species is irrelevant. Nothing that can be fixed with the right gene cocktail.
I feel that we're getting somewhere. I plan on buying the first couple of countries by the end of the week. In a month or so, we can make a decent 3-year-agenda for this universe, and have reliable estimations for all the others. Our lawyers will destroy them mercilessly. Especially since our lawyers are currently 30 foot tall and have teeth and claws of adamantine and are born with an innate knowledge of every law, ordination and rule in existence, and how to bend them.

::telepathically:: We assume you Runelords will deal with this upstart for his insolence, but we find it amusing that he suggests that our runemagic is past its time and his dabblings in the genetic soup are on the cutting edge.
Who do you think invented genetic manipulation? Actually, who do you think invented your species? A random lightening bolt into some genetic cesspond? ::chortles::

Sciency stuff
Really? Science? Science has rules, my friend. Rules that cannot be broken.
Come back to us when you can summon swarms of flaming meteors out of thin air, call forth the service of a Balor, imprison someone beneath the earth, instantly slay a creature, instantly slay all creatures within 30 feet, travel to the astral plane, stop time, or uh...foresee things.
Until such time, you are relegated to high ranks in some Craft and Knowledge skills.
By the way: I am contemplating that we may need some sort of Grand Subjugation License (GSL) as I hear that everyone these days needs them to license what their minions (or flunkies in the case of proletariat rabbles who do not want proper minions with panache) can or cannot do whilst conquoring the world on their behalf.
::telepathically:: Ah, yes. We have heard of this Grand Subjugation License. We believe they were first created by Asmodeus. Some sort of geas, yes?

That's exactly why I chose "mankind." Humans and humanoids can't oppose us, but the abberations brought about our downfall the first time around. Thus, their opinions will be negotiable in the new forum order.
::Telepathically:: Ah, an eminently reasonable position, then.
By the way, we've been meaning to ask - last time we checked, Lust wasn't the only female Runelord. What happened to Envy and Wrath? Spells gone awry? New preference?
