Léornis Quaar, an elf ranger/defiler who is sole goal is to unite all of the elfe tribe under his self proclaimed Sorcerer-king of the elf, Léornis Quaar, Ultimate Ruler of the Tableland. My PC have twarted some of his evil plot a couple of time, but we a lot of pain. Léornis managed to wipe out two PC (they played there character since two year) and stole there magic item (one of them, the Belt of Rank). Léornis is a pragmatic sadist and doesnt care about his allies. Exemple; he once used one of his henchmen as a shield against a PC lightning bolt spell. Also, in one game, he kidnapped one of the son of the PC elfe, and asked for a ransom. Each week the ransom was not met, Léornis sended a part of the baby elf to his father (the PC). When they finally saved the PC elfe son after an huge battle in Kalidnay agaisnt Léornis, the poor had two ear and the nose cut and was blind from one eye.
Oh and Léornis killed the mother too.
His hated a lot by my PC. They want to kill him bad. His next plot is to retrieve the Silencer of Bodach (with ancient text he stoled from the PC), unite the elfe tribe of the West and invade Tyr.
Very cool. Unfortuntely I am not running a DS game at this time, I'm playing in one though. But he's very un-villianous so... I gots me nothin'. Silly heroic invisible blade / thief-acrobat.

He would've come to embrace the Silt lords and eventually become undead, blaming all his bitter lot in life on the mul, than muls and finally on all half-breeds, loathing himself most of all. Of course, where would that have taken my PCs... maybe we'll never know.
The myrmeleon was Athrialix Denestor (Veiled Alliance). He tricked the PCs into killing the only VA member suspecting his true nature. The PCs never caught on to the ploy until several gaming sessions later, when they learnt the shocking truth. They failed to catch the detail that the wizard they killed didn't leave behind an ashen circle when casting spells.
I wish I could but my players have been haunting the board again and I do not want to ruin my fun :evillaugh
No we haven't.
No we haven't.

Valux is still trying to figure out the pasta and monkey stuff -- let alone the complex secrets of your NPC encounters.
It's totally safe to post them here. ;)
I knew I should have never told you guys about this place- no I have nowhere to gloat
OH okay...no I guess I am not that dumb- I have been dreaming of some of the encounters you will face later and laughing so hard I have hurt myself- no unlike Firday with the 'chili incident' ;)

In all seriousness, we're all adults. I guarantee that if you post a "my players, keep out" type disclaimer in your thread's subject line, or use a spoiler tag in your post, we won't read it. We have that level of self control. It's amazing sometimes.

The what?

Uh huh, that's what all players say. ;)
Don't fall for it Kal! I did ONCE, ONCE! Never again!!!

Ok, not sure I want to know what this is reference to.

This on the other hand sounds funny and probably needs to be shared.

The first is a reference to a running gag that takes place at the beginning of each session. Apparently, it seems Kal was beginning each session by saying, "OK, so there we were, with the pasta, the monkeys, and the *****s." About fifteen sessions in, he said it, and I swear I had never heard him say it, not once, so I replied with a befuddled, "What?" A discussion ensued where I was assured by Kal and all players that he had, in fact, said this a million times with me present, but I was absolutely certain I had never heard him say it (consider this testament to how poorly I pay attention). Ever since then, he continues to begin each session with the proclamation about the pasta, monkeys, and *****s, to which I reply with a befuddled "What?".
The second statement refers to the fact that Freakboy9 was generous enough to provide some Wendy's $.99 chili for the whole group at the last session. You wanna see four guys reduce a city's sewer system to smoking ruin, provide each of them with a little container of Wendy's chili. Lansing's water treatment plants have been in a state of emergency since Friday night. Several hours after this disastrous meal, you could still hear our stomachs bubbling loudly. I'm pretty sure we disturbed the neighbors. Kalthandrix has had to have his downstairs toilet and all his plumbing replaced.
It was an unfortunate incident. One that I can't wait to repeat!
EDIT: the censored words refer to a lady undertaking the world's oldest profession. Didn't realize that was a profane word... *shrug*
You don't see us coming here and terrorizing the forums and hijacking threads with foolishn ---- ok, nevermind.
It's true -- we do have a lot of self control.

Or burning down churches...
But in our defense, we had to conceal the evidence of all the Templars we killed!
OK, I'm just digging this hole deeper, aren't I? I'll just shut up now...
Hey freakboy- did you send this link to your brother yet?

I guess that's what I get for asking this to be shared. I was expecting more of a "Kal made chili and tripped causing chili to go flying everywhere! One cat also perished in this much unfortunate accident" type of story.
Don't try this at home kids!

You hear "chili incident" and that's the first thing you think of? Your mind is not twisted enough. Read a book of fart jokes and then come see me for re-evaluation.

And they don't just look at the pictures if they borrow the monster books. :P
The first time he fireballed them while they were sleeping- they have never tired to discover why.
The second time he fireballed them when they were standing in a common room- they were trying to look as though it was just coinciencidence that they were there- yeah right!
And last game, they were hiding as he appeared to transport a group of assassins into Tyr.
They really want to do this guy in- he did happen to kill at least one of their old party members and he has excaped their clutches - while in combat- twice :D . No DM 'fudging' either- he ALWAYS has a plan of egress and they have never been able to stop him from using it. MAYBE- SOMEDAY they well get the better of him- but.... :P
I play my intelligent bad guys like they were intelligent bad guys and not just fleshbags of XP on legs - that is the fun part.

In all fairness, on that second encounter, we didn't know he was in that inn, or we wouldn't have been trying to "act casual." We would have been busting down his door and proceeding to open up a can of whup-a**

No one has that much self control!
I believe my players are disciplined enough not to download adventures from athas.org before I run them with them. Of course, some of them have had the privelege of playtesting them before the public playtest, but not for DA part 3 for example, which we're still running.
Adventures sure.... but a thread discussing the juicey bits of a game? Lucky for me, none of my players ever visit the boards! In fact they probably think I've transcended far beyond their level of geekdom, because I frequent them
