the subject. I'm curious to know who the first lich in a table top game to speak was. The first oldest lich I found was Vecna from DnD.
>>94424030Before D&D Lich was just a generalized term for undead.
>>94424030You wouldn't know them, they went to a different school.
>>94424196>Before D&D Lich was just a generalized term for undead.I know.
>>94424030I have an idea for a new bot thread. When was the first time a man masturbated to an elf?
>>94424957That would actually be an interesting question for a historian, I wonder if there's any lewd art of elves from when people still believed in them.
>>94424957I'd say 1600AD, Titania and Oberon in Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream were pretty damn horny, it's very likely someone in the audience rubbed one off to either of them.
>>94424196That's nice dear, but it's completely irrelevant to the question being asked
>>94424957OP here, here's a bot thread for ya *unzips dick*
>>94425021yeah but I strongly doubt that was the first time someone masturbated to an elf
>>94424030>For the original D&D rule set, the lich was introduced in its first supplement, Greyhawk (1975).[3][6] It is described simply as a skeletal monster that was formerly a magic-user or a magic-user/cleric in life and retains those abilities, able to send lower-level characters fleeing in fear. So, imho likely the first lich to actually appear in a game was just some random minor npc rather than Vecna or Acererak.
>>94424030Koschei the Deathless
>>94427078>in a table top game?
>>94424030I dunno, type it into google
>>94424030>in a table top gameNo Idea. The first Lich in literature was Koshchei the deathless though.
>>94427120The first Lich in literature was Jesus Christ.
>>94427086nta but table top games have existed for over 5000 yearsso I wouldn't be surprised if Koschei was the first lich to show up in some table top game for which we don't know the rules anymore.
>>94424196>>94424269Nope, it was a general term for a corpse and before that it was general term for a body alive or dead. The use of lich for a corpse that might be animated is from early 20th century weird fiction and the same time it was used by the same writers to refer to inanimate corpses too so it was not a generalised term for undead.
>>94427112i tried, I found lots of old liches (or something from a old novel that we who like RPGs would identify as a Lich if we read/saw it) but no example of one speaking/having a personality.
>>94425021Fairies are not elves dumpass.
>>94430615nayrt In Elizabethan English, like you know when Shakespeare was writing, the two words were frequently used for the same thing.
