    Kiaransalee is such a cool god. The banshee knights and undead legions fighting demons and their own undead is just so cool. Not a story of good vs evil just two evils going to war. Love it

    The wand was made from the spine and skull of a hero named anarchocles; literally: to honor no rules.

    Ran a post Out of the Abyss “Into the Abyss: The Wand of Orcus” high level home brew one shot where a party ventured deep into Orcus’ layer to destroy the wand only to learn that one of the party members was destined to serve as a vessel for Demogorgon’s rebirth after the party slew the demon lord previously in his layer and had to face a new avatar or projection of Demo.
    The transformation scene drew its inspiration from nightmare on elm street 2, and an American werewolf in London. Good time, Orcus rocks 🤘

    How I completely missed this is beyond me. Kiransalee is a good idea of what it takes to depose Lolth. Even with all her acquired power, lolth crushed her like a fly.

    Luckily, my stories flop anyway, so I need not find a not-evil deity of Undeath, but only declare the rogues deluded about `Orcus´ being a deity instead of a Demonic Patron only...

    It's honestly surprising she didn't take out orcus even earlier. Sure, he's a powerful entity, but he's outclassed in this battle. Even a lesser diety is more than a match for a demonlord.

    The "Satanic Panic" was a smear of a justified concern of the moral decay that D&D could facilitate.
    "Justified" by the fact that the current version (whether you think of that as 5th, or 5.5) contains both a Race and a Class dependent on Fiendish origin. As well as the makers of BG3 _lamenting_ the fact that, while they allowed players to play red skinned, horned characters, but most people make normal human looking avatars.
    Not to mention the OGL was an idea born of the depths of the human soul!

      Probably scheming on the proper way to steal thanatos from the Banshee after she did all the heavy lifting.more likely she was setting things in place in preparation for her "silence". The events of that time pretty much nullified any gains toward independence the banshee made. 😈{Whispers}Praise Lolth..and the world is her Prey!

    @wreid4995 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    While the story was excellent the whole idea that a minor God could harness the "last word" seems absurd on every level. Just the idea of the "last word" makes zero sense. Every diety who valued their own hide would have protected it from anyone ever using it. It's just lazy writing by Wizards of rhe Coast in my opinion.

    • @RichesandLiches
      @RichesandLiches  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      I can certainy see why some would say that and I generally agree with agree that statement in terms of "current gen" Wotc.
      However, given what I covered in Chapter 12 I think the writers from the second edition, like Monte Cook who were dealt a bad situation did an admirable job. That said, I agree about the Last Word, and as i said in the final chapter, it was the Deus Ex Machina plot device, but I plan the corporate overlords more than the Planescape writers, who I actually have a ton of respect for.
      Thanks for the taking the time to give feedback!
