Okay, this thread is going to sound weird but I did not see any other forum to post this in.

This is the deal, my dwarf wizard, a moon elf demon hunter and an evil lich joined together the mighty artifacts that provide Godly powers. My main objective is to screw the evil lich the worst way possible.

The powers that the artifacts provide are the following: A) Divine Rank 0 and my character turns into an NPC B) One single use of any divine silent ability that doesn’t require feats that I don’t have or other divine silent ability as a prerequisite. The lich choose option A and I am going with option B to try to screw him.

My main idea was to use Alter Reality to instantly cast Time Stop and teleport with the rest of the artifacts preventing the lich of acquiring divine power however I forgot that the DM banned that spell a long time ago. So that option is a no go.

So here I am, lacking of ideas and asking for help.

Any ideas? :confused:

Cast Save or die spell X Heightened to some freakish level.
Sure, you do nothing for Freakish level number of rounds while you rest, but Lichey boy won't survive.
That is, if you can apply an Epic Metamagic on a Alter Reality spell, I don't recall...

The problem is that by then he would get his divine rank plus he is a lich, so he dies and then comes back to haunt me a cuple of days later.

Deities only come back (under RAW) if they have the Rejuvenation salient ability.
Rank 0 gets no abilities.

Don´t get me wrong I wish It was the case but knowing my DM the fact that the lich is now a deity dosen´t mean it phylactery stops working. :(

Oh yes... Phylactery.
I had actually forgotten about that. :embarrass

Annihilating strike would get the Lich out of your way for a while (I would love to see it make the Fortitude save...) but then you'd only have a few days to gank it's Phylactery.

Control Creature is another option, Problem being it allows a will save )cha based).

Looking through it, your best bet would be to take a SDA to increase your ability in combat (Divine fast healing comes to mind, if your DM lets it last for a while, at any rate), BEat Lichey to death and then find it's Phylactery.

A DvR 0 isn't going to give him too much in the way of power anyway, although the book seems to contradict itself by giving several Quasi-deities the immunities of rank 1 deities?

I already made my pick; since my dwarf was a conjurer I went with Alter Reality to cast Trap of the Soul. I manage to a get a DC of 30 minimum assuming the divine rank is 1. I honestly think that was the best choice.
