So, he's D&D's Thanquol.
>>98602039So, he's TES Zagreus
>>98602039He's a lich, why does he a have a goblet?
>>98602039What's Thanquol?
>>98602103Major skaven character from Warhammer/Age of Sigmar.
>>98602103Skaven character who makes hilarously overcomplicated plans that always end in utter and complete disaster.
>>98602039More like FailAbaddon before the retcons. The narrative tries to make him a big threat, but because serialized setting where status quo is God, his plains are ultimate doomed to fail. If he succeeds, Faerûn ceases to exist as a playable setting.Because D&D authors keep assigning him world-ending stakes, 100% of his screen-time operations end in defeat, making him look like a incompetent fraud despite his "god-tier" background statblock.
>>98602039What about Vecna? Wasn't he the designated incompetent big bad?
>>98602201The difference is that Vecna has gone more and more powerful with every edition. He started as a mortal wizard in Greyhawk, transformed into a lich, lost his hand and eye, ascended to a demigod, got trapped in the Demiplane of Dread (Ravenloft), and then broke the fundamental laws of reality when found a structural loophole in the cosmos and ascended to greated godhood when he invaded Sigil. The Lady of Pain step up to repair the damage but it was already too late.
>>98602217>The Lady of Pain step up to repair the damage but it was already too late.Good. Fuck that bitch.
>>98602217this all sounds...very made up. Fake and gay, if you will...
>>98602103Here's a bit of context (based on actual lore):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_k-IIotIdig
>>98602327I mean, its all made up
>>98602941hahhe admits it
>>98606615Yeah. You . . . you didn't think Vecna was real, did you?
>>98606674No I'm pretty perceptive, I called bullshit before I even read the post.
>>98602103Invader Zim but he kills on screen
>>98602039I wouldn't know, is the book out yet anywhere?
