You are a Lich (SG)
« on: June 16, 2017, 01:52:37 am »

...and you are severely bored.  Thanks to your immortality, you have long become the master of all schools of magic known, including the really weird ones, and you have had a stint or two as an immortal dictator, faking a fall once the constant annoyance of adventurers cropping up and the far more horrifying bureaucracy finally got to you.

What do you do to alleviate the boredom?

Try creating a new form of Un-life that is neither living or undead, but superior to both.

If it obeys us, cool, we have a new minion to play god with. If it rebels, we have an enemy to kill time fighting.

In which setting does the game takes place? Generic High-Fantasy? Modern world mixed with Fantasy? In any case, I'm in!

If it's a modern world with fantasy elements: Go and buy Fallout: New Vegas copy in the nearest store!
If it's a fantasy world: Summon skeletons and make them dance along with me.

Trying to kill Adventurers that tresspass your land in the most creative ways

Eh, you already have defenses set up that start with swarms of Chihuahuas of War attacking them and only get stranger from there.  Besides, after the first thousand, killing adventurers is a bit dull, even if you are getting creative.  Granted, that is no excuse not to be creative.

Try creating a new form of Un-life that is neither living or undead, but superior to both.

If it obeys us, cool, we have a new minion to play god with. If it rebels, we have an enemy to kill time fighting.

It turns out that the line between life and undeath is a bit "one or the other," as the only division between the two is the question of whether the entity has a soul or not.

Become a Demi-lich

That would reduce yourself to only a single part of your body.  If you did that, you couldn't do anything with the tactile magics or those that utilize crafting as a component.

Become The Raddest Lich Lute player in all the land

You learned to play one when you were working on learning all the music-based magics.  Going professional would be a bit difficult however.  For one, you are just a skeleton, so you can't take copious amounts of drugs.  For another, liches don't have the best reputations, despite your attempted public relations campaigns.

If it's a modern world with fantasy elements: Go and buy Fallout: New Vegas copy in the nearest store!
If it's a fantasy world: Summon skeletons and make them dance along with me.


You...actually aren't sure what the current tech level of the mortal races is.  Probably want to check in on that sometime.  Tech tends to progress really slowly, so even if its been a really long time, there probably hasn't been too much of an advancement.  You idly wonder if you should contact some of the other liches you know over Skullbook using your custom-built Deep Rot.

Why bones?  While it does keep with the aesthetic, there's a bunch of far stronger stuff that could be used.  Sure, magic can bring the bones up to that same level, but those other substances are already there.

bone mech. If magic brings it up to the level of other materials, why not keep the aesthetic?

Alter a creature into a massive beast with zombifying clouds for breath and send it to go zombify villages.

Build a magic silver/titanium alloy mech, with the exterior beautifully shaped to make it look like a giant hulking cyborg skeleton. Functionality and aesthetic!

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

"Nah, that's fine! I don't need to contact the other liches, I want to dance instead!"

Summon at least 68 skeletons, then go to the "Community of Sexy Skeletons Appreciators" and twerk along with my skeleton minions, giving major boners to those fleshy bone fetishists.
After that (doesn't matter if the previous action is a failure or success), buy a local abandoned warehouse and turn it into a skeleton strip-club.


((Since people already trying to build mechs and cyborgs, I'm gonna assume the setting is Modern Fantasy. But here's the question; is it a completely fictional world, or it's a copy of Real Life Earth with a pinch of magic?))

Well, for any of these, you would need to get supplies.  All of your supplies are currently tied up in either traps, maintaining the traps, citadel construction, citadel maintenance, equipment, or maintaining your equipment.

Consider becoming a god.

Gods can only fight against gods, and you've pissed off enough of them that if you do ascend, all of the more established ones would probably try to kick your ass.  May want to get some allies and worshipers first.

Lets ask the Deep Rot what the current tech of the mortals is like.
