Yes so the goal is to make the fake last bosses the biggest collection of overly complex bait and switches only to make Armok come into the game COMPETELY unannounced and make the entire story of the entire game completely superfluous and laugh at doing so.

Then the final dungeon appears. the Wasteland of something... I forget its name.

I propose 504's be worked into the plot somehow

504 could be a status effect that makes you lose turns and take HP and MP damage each turn, with a 15-25% chance of going away each turn after the second or something.

The final dungeon is probably either the HFS or VN.

Well fuck.

4504'd!

Well damn the strike-through's not visible :/

It's VN. Why do you think I put it there?

[Darvi]

For fun and profit?

[FuzzyZergling]

Maybe HFS is the "canon" last area, and VN a secret bonus dungeon?

[Neonivek]

Well remember the last area is Armok: 1

[Darvi]

Which, in turn, contains the last dungeon, VN. Sounds legit.

HFS is the last area, and VN is the "real" last area?

What is VN?

[Darvi]

Various Nonsense. Basically GD before GD. Or so I heard.

As a separate, tri-ninja'd idea...

Maybe the ghost of the warlord is a recurring mini-boss who also shows up in various sidequests instead of being the bonus boss, a d instead of the previously mentioned end...

Once Tim is defeated, the dwarves offer you entrance to the Upper Realms, where you attain fame through a series of related quests. The central settlement, a dwarven fortress combining the best and the maddest of the community, is a sort of a hub for this activity; every quest you finish ends with you bringing a trophy to the dwarven king. These trophies include magical items and an Adamantine Pick. The magical items let the dwarves explore deeper, safer. Once there are, say, 13 such items in the dwarven king's possession, they will find adamantine once a Demonsbane Amulet has been brought as well, and then mined once the Adamantine Pick is brought. Shops will start offering adamantine goods, easily the best for most items, but within a short in-game period the HFS will be released. Uriel will need to promptly head into the depths of the world and face Armok, who claims credit for everything from the civil war to Tim to the death of the warlord you killed. Then, you try to kill Armok, but can't and seal the gate of HFS with the Holy Log.


Oh, and I might be able to think of some good items to add, since I'm mostly contributing ideas. I just need to know what weapons the PCs specialize in and if you can have item-dependent skills or something.

The final fake last boss should be a swarm of fake last bosses.

Basically survival boss rush.

OOOH! even better

To beat the herd of fake last bosses you have to split the party into 3-4 teams.

Either way somehow the last fake final boss should be a swarm of fake last bosses in one fight.

[Darvi]

To beat the herd of fake last bosses you have to split the party into 3-4 teams.

Except everybody will realize that splitting the party is a stupid idea and the group will just try to take on all the bosses at the same time. Which might be an even dumber idea, but what are we if not occasionally random?

No no no,

What will happen is that the team realises that at this rate it will take hours to destroy them all and realise that only 4 of them can fight at once. So they split the teams.
