01-31-07, 10:56 PM I am about to start a solo PbP game where I am a NE Child of Winter Druid(goblin is the race) who takes the planar sheperd PrC(Xoriat). The basic premise of the game so far is to take over the world/make a cataclysm to purify the world. I am looking for some inspiration from the people here(or on the chr devel boards if this gets moved) to roleplaying this guy. He is my first truly evil guy. Thanks!

02-01-07, 06:49 PM Well first off, what part of Khorvaire does your character come from? That can help determine how they would end up with a personality and viewpoint that could agree with or willing pursue the causes of the Children of Winter. What are your character's strengths and weaknesses, and how can he capitalize on them to achieve his goal.

Also, like Vharuck said, druids dislike abberations and all things unnatural, even the Children of Winter. They're evil in the sense that they believe in survival of the fittest and feel no remorse for those that die, and on a certain level even enjoy the death and decay in nature, but they prefer to do so through natural means. For your character to want to associate with the plane of Xoriat (daelkyr and abberations) to achieve this goal suggests they're not only extreme, they're also a tad bit insane- perhaps in the literal sense.

02-01-07, 07:29 PM Yes, even Children of Winter extol nature. They just happen to focus on the end result of it: things die. They see it also that all things must die, kinda like that one inevitable.
