So I, being one of the DM's, have a particular enjoyment for Celestia/Baator( Nine Hells) and plan to DM a 15th lvl adventure that can continue past the two days of MEGA D&D. I would just like you opinion in terms of plot, excitement, and creativity. So, one of the first things I did, was go through the Book of Vile Darkness and read all about the different goals, alliances, and enemies of the nine lords of Hell. I then decided to pick Levistus, as the Partys lord. Here it is... (text doc) OLD ORDER 1st Layer-- Bel 2nd Layer-- Dispater 3rd Layer-- Mammon 4th Layer-- Belial and Fierna 5th Layer-- Levistus 6th Layer-- The Hag Countess 7th Layer-- Baalzebul 8th Layer-- Mephistopheles 9th Layer-- Asmodeus CURRENT GOALS/ALLIANCES/ENEMIES Bel-- Big on Blood War Dispater-- Very Cautious. Ally with Mephistopheles, Hates Baalzebul Mammon-- Distrusted by Dispater and Mephistopheles. Asmodeus altered his form Belial and Fierna-- Belial Hates Mammon, wants 5th and 6th Layers. Secret Allaince with Baalzebul Levistus-- Trapped in Ice. Hates Asmodeus Hag Countess-- Solidfy Power Baalzebul-- Enemies with Dispater, Mephistopheles, Asmodeus. Allies with Belial Mephistopheles-- Enemies with Baalzebul. Allies with Dispater. Wants 9th Layer Asmodeus-- Keep 9th Layer, Hates Demons, Hates Celestia Party are Servants of Levistus. Plan: Step 1. Remove Levistus from the ice Step 2. Offer Belial Help to Remove the Hag Countess Step 3. Convince Mammon to Help the Hag Countess and refuse to help Belial Step 4. Remove Belial with help of Mammon and the Mag Countess Step 5. Force Fierna into submission and not to interfere Step 6. Help Dispater and Mephistopheles to remove Baalzebul. (Baal Call on Belial for help, learn of Belial Demise) Step 7. Remove Baalzebul with Dispater and Mephistopheles and claim the 7th layer Step 8. Get Zagyg to Get Graz'zt to attack Asmodeus Step 9. Convince Mephistopheles and Graz'zt to attack Asmodeus. Baalzebul returns Step 10. Remove Asmodeus with help of Baalzebul, Mephistopheles and Graz'zt Step 11. Have Bel attack Graz'zt to distract the Demon Prince Step 12. Turn on Mephistopheles with Baalzebul with offers of the 8th Layer Step 13. Claim the 9th Layer, Turn on Baalzebul with help of Dispater Step 14. Remove Baalzebul, give 8th Layer to Dispater, 7th layer to the returned Mephistopheles Step 15. Give 2nd Layer to Bel and First Layer to Baalzebul Step 16. Restore Greyon to the 5th Layer NEW ORDER 1st Layer-- Baalzebul 2nd Layer-- Bel 3rd Layer-- Mammon 4th Layer-- Fierna 5th Layer-- Greyon 6th Layer-- The Hag Countess 7th Layer-- Mephistopheles 8th Layer-- Dispater 9th Layer-- Levistus Thanks, Bobo

bobotheguy 12-05-07, 03:17 AM	The PC's will be performing various quests that move the plot to the next step. As per a suggestion on freeing Levistus, one member said that the party could go to the elemental plane of fire and retrieve Decanters of endless fire (custom magic item) while braving various threats of the elemental plane of fire. In order to say, convince Mammon to help the Hag countess, send the party to retrieve some priceless set of jewels (Mammon is very greedy) Need more? Bobo

bobotheguy 12-05-07, 03:22 AM	That comes after Dispater and Mephistopheles have taken their respective layers, but before Levistus claims hell :D Good plot though?
