Yes, that did occur to me. But as Ericorn says, he wants to live. Even if there's a backstab coming, it certainly won't be prior to the Khaduli's defeat. I'm about as certain as I can be (which isn't very certain when it comes to IO's writing) that the duke is sincere. Betraying Nalifan at this jun...

I have... serious doubts on that score. First, I deduced the general nature of the man talking with the prince about five minutes after the relevant chapter was posted (confirmed by the good Overlord), and have what I feel is a good deduction on the specific being as well, though he wouldn't go tha...

Crazy theory time Ericorn is the behind the man talking with the prince, the whole deal here is Ericorn plan to descredit the king and his son in order to either have himself ascend to be king or letting the princess ascend to the throne and have his son marry her to take so he would effectively tak...

Malign Hyper-Cognitive Disorder I see what you did there. Do I presume correctly that is only a throwaway reference? Apparently the Ragnarok project was used to summon Great Old Ones and if by the appearance of Wodan we can infer that the project is still alive, the are probably good odds that we w...

Hell, it could even be MechaG. Which makes me have to ask, is the MechaG here from the same novel continuity as Godzilla? Yes, but I'm going to replace the pilot with another more famous crippled character. [simpsons]STEPHEN HAWKING!?!?[/simpsons] I kid, I kid. Hey, Stephen Hawking is totally hardc...

Since Wodan is here, are you going to explain why Fate moveset is apparently a combination of him and Sanger?

To live in Abier-Toril is to live under one rule: obey or you shall feel my fist. The followers of Bane are naked in their espousal of such a rule, but it applies to all. The gods fear Ao who rules not out of consent of the governed or superior wisdom, but naked might. Mortals that do not worship a...

Can someone clarify what does that little tidbit allude to: Apparently, communication outside of direct curriers had been cut off by some of the technology the Starfish had invented. People hung together and managed to pull through, but the government non-response was a complete embarrassment. In th...

And so people had regrouped to humanism, taking reassurance in shared humanity and the declaration that we were better (in some indefinable sense) than everything else in the cosmos. Hurray for human elitism! Also Nazzadi, but that should go without a saying. Regarding Nyarly though, if he's the me...

Your view is overly narrow. Necromancy is a broad art dealing with life and death, spanning abilities as enhanced vitality, life extension, resurrection, life force transfer, augmentation, and destruction; as well as creating, binding, and destroying the undead. In other games, such as Earthdawn, t...

That varies with what type of undead we are talking about. There are three general types of undead. Mindless reanimates, those which possess the mind and soul of the original living creature (although possibly horribly warped), and those which are the shade (a remnant of the living creature's intel...

I meant more on the line of is necromancy* the art of (usually) using negative energy to animate dead bodies, or is it the damning process of forever ripping a soul from the afterlife and forcing it to serve you for all eternity in decaying corpse (etc,etc..) ? Or more to the point, is necromancy in...

Imperial Overlord in your version of 'Forgotten Realms' is nercomany inherently evil, or just immoral?

Anyway, I think that's a mistake here:

He made a pair of complicated passes with his hands, shaping the energy flow, as he spoke worlds of power.

The Lovecraftian Dreamlands.

Druegar, deep gnome, and kobold are all natural miners and enjoy living underground, so it’s inevitable that they’d need to reach an understanding with Bruenor and the Mithril Hall clan dwarves. I don’t know if Bruenor harbors any grudges against Druegar. Apart from the standard racial hatred betwe...

You appeared to have spent way to much time on coverting NGE to Cthulhutech; which is awesome, and everyone who says otherwise is lying.

A minor question though, are all the Heralds names in Hebrew (Or vaugely related Jewish mysticism)?

When people die in the Planescape 'verse they are turned into petitioners ; which basically mean that they reform on the plane closest to their aligment (or the plane of their god) and take the form of the being that usually inhabits in this place. Anyway, Skuld is a goddess and the Lady Of Pain doe...
