Okay, this is a question for all of you players.
How many of you have characters that actually plot, scheme, and devise things to gain more power? Not "kill baddie, get exp" power, but actual power.
And, on that same note, a question for the less greedy characters, how many of you make/have plans to foil those with plans for power?

Oh, a couple of my chars have some simmering side plots in the works. I dont want to go into it too much, but the classic buildup of enmity is there for a future confrontation, etc etc.

My plot was to take the bounty offered on Melkroth by his masters. I have been spreading word to the Zulkhurs of his trechery for several months now. Finally they agreed to pay me a large sum of money to deal with him. Now that I have gained his confidence, I intend to lure him out of town with an offer of adventuring, and then execute my plan. I have a venom Dart that will reduce his intelligence severly before I attack with my sword. Also I have a potion that will render most of his magical attacks useless. Than I am going to frame Torian for the whole thing by leaving a personal effect of hers that I have stolen by the corpse for the silver shields to find.
Just kidding. HA! As if I would tell you if I was plotting something.. shesh. See you later.

what a clever alibi, your just making us think that by saying that you think that we won't think that you'll do this cause we'll think you'll never just in the open tell use what you think you'll do, but in fact your thinking that we'll think your kidding and think you can get away with this...yaaa we're on to you and your thinking thoughts  |

I never plot and scheme. I am just a powergamer trying to get ahead of everyone else with xp. There I said it, now the truth is out. Maybe once I get to level 40 I may start Rping ... *looks around and tries to hide* |

heh
Actually, the reason I ask this is to get a good idea of how many people here try to roleplay large plots. I've recently had one of my PnP players create an EXTREMELY good plan and see it through, granting him the role of Zulkir of Wild Magic in Thay. It was really brilliant...

what if the next patch raises the level cap? *grins* Haha... I think anyone who hits level 40 is basically a demi-god...
Actually, I've never had a player go above 30. by then most of the retire their characters..

Heck i have a hard time maintaining character interest after 10th level!
I retired Yodoko at 10/1 ftr/weap master.
Elsa's practically on old lady at 14th level, and i have 2 6th levels a 4ths and a 3rd level as well. All for whatever mood in in to RP with.
I highly, highly doubt ill ever have a char about 20th level here, i like to keep the threat of imminent death alive on a daily basis lol, plus its so much fun to hop about and develop the story line of all five characters a little each day.

I've got several player names and characters running around with different plots, from throwing the world into unescapable darkness to claiming a large enough sum of wealth so as to start the chars own country, with his family as it's head, and a certain goddess of merchants as it's state god...

Manshin? Stealing something from Tori? Ha ha! Good luck USMC! As for my characters' plots... Well, if you didn't already know that Torian's a walking plot hook, then you do now. And it's not even her fault for doing her job! As for Misha, well... We'll just have to see. Trying to develop her after my LARP character is a little tough. |
