As fun as it is to run a thread into the ground out the gate like this, I'm actually going to contribute.


A Lich who's sick of ruling his dark kingdom, and really just wants to have be bested in a sick ass final battle against the forces of good, but the last time there were actually any heroes around was 200 years ago and his fucking royal assassin killed them in their sleep, so he's been forced to occasionally set up situations where Heroes MIGHT arise while keeping them secret from his own spy network.

Alternatively/Running in the same campaign:

A fallen Paladin who has spent years terrorizing the nation that destroyed their order in The War, commanding a legion of devils she's defeated and subjugated.

Giant Gargamel

>BLEH

GURPS

No indecent profanity, please.

>Devil/Demon/necromancer that gives player a cursed sword
when the player finally faces off against the bbeg, every monster that they killed with the sword comes back as a ghost in the fight

GURPS? GURPS

I've got one. A demon has subjugated numerous steppe tribes under it's banner and is now leading this vast army towards the western kingdoms. The kings of the western kingdoms are previous adventurers, and the demon is actually a very power Ogre Magi who's lost it's family to the adventurers. The Ogre Magi is now out for blood because he's powerful enough on his own to go against the wizard king and his army is strong and large enough to take on the western kingdoms

a green dragon that painted himself gold

I fucking love this meme.

A party member's mother, driven to insanity by the time she's been without her one and only child. She's become convinced that the rest of the party has kidnapped and brainwashed her precious child, and plan to sell him\her to a cabal of Mind-Flayers for the coin.

Her plan is to kidnap and mindwipe her child so that he/she will forget all the time they'd spent adventuring and mentally revert to their childhood. In the time her child's been missing, she's learned quite a few powerful evocation and illusion spells, and while she doesn't want to kill the rest of the party, she'll do anything it takes to protect her sweet sweet baby.

An ancient lizardman vampire... Have it be the kind that gets bigger as they age

A living, moving mansion, populated by singing Mimics.

Business ogre. He'll tear down the bard college to build an oil well unless defeated in the big race.

A fabulously rich goblin with a pure black heart who finds pleasure in destroying the society by creating NGO's all over the globe that spread subversive and harmful values, incite revolutions and spread chaos.

An old adventurer who decided he rather liked some of the monstrous races ladies a bit too much and decided to go Ghengis Kahn.
Does it count as magical realm if the campaign objective is to kill my self-insert?

A typical fa/tg/uy neckbeard who was somehow stranded in the world. He has all of the source books and expansions in his possesions, as well as an enormous wealth of meta and OOC knowledge. His fantastical dreams have come true, and he would be happier than it's possible to comprehend, but there's one problem.

It's the wrong edition and his severe autism won't let him get over it. His plan is to destroy reality, which he believes he will survive as he is not part of the fantasy reality, and reshape the world in his image, under the *Insert_Ruleset*, as it should be. He isn't threatening on his own, but he knows all of the party's plans before they ever make them, and he's always two steps ahead.

PCs have macguffin that will prevent apocalypse, but no one believes them, and in order to take it where it needs to go they must win a majority aproving votes from the ruling council, and they only have 80 days.

Also the apocalypse is just a proxy conflict the Blood War, PCs are strong-armed into aiding the dukes hell, who want to avert the event to prevent demons from gaining an apocalypse-worth of souls. (Previous events established a one-way planar syphon sending every soul from this planet directly to the abyss)

You forgot about the old lord who inhabits it cursed with lycanthropy by a witch and who will die soon if he doesn't learn to love

A tiefling barbarian who leads a tribe full of demon cultists, born from the union of the tribes priestess and a powerful demon, and is hellbent (badabumtss) on conquering lands and expanding.
Extra clusterfuck points if he tells the demons to go fuck themselves and goes against them as well and the invasion devolves into an all out war between hell, the barbarians current army and a few nations both repelling the barbarians and eachother using the chaos as an excuse to conquer other smaller (or fallen) nations.

Lol, i once had a similar idea. It was a mimic inn in the middle of the forest, and most pieces of furniture were mimics as well. Pity i didn't play any sort of tabletop games back then, would have loved to use this concept

A king so benevolent, with a court of wise and amicable nobles, taking pride in the long history of welfare their people have been, under that line of royalty.
But in reality, that palace is funding other kings, in kingdoms with either no resources or very important resources, to either apply a tyrannical rule over their people or to buy their resources and apply a tyrannical rule to their people, so that the benevolent king can provide his subjects with lots of goods and appear kind and generous, juxtaposed with those other kings.
What the money goes to, is loads of loti (the plural of lotus, the fruit that causes forgetfulness and bliss) being bought with the money of the king. The lotus growers also provide all kinds of services to the king: assasinate dissidents, provide information about dissidents in every kingdom and other kings and regulate the price of the lotus to fit the current fiscal ability of the king.

Dmpc dragonborn eldritch knight the player help make into a war chief of his tribe by helping him kill his rival and getting his hand on the chief prize weapon bonded.

fa/tg/uy becomes stranded in fantasy world and discovers that his in-game knowledge is actually applicable. He becomes a powerful wizard, due to possessing virginity after 30 as well as through actual magical training.

He slays monsters, explores lands both near and far, and loots dungeons. This fantasy is a dream come true.

Over time the mystery and the magic in the world begins to wane. The elves and the dwarves and the succubi and the thicc half-orcs and the slime girls all begin to disappear, and the world begins to look very much like Earth.

Veeky Forumstg/uy doesn't want this. Having lived the dream, he can't allow things to return to the way they were back in his original world.

He begins to do everything in his power to propagate monsters and mystery and magic, much to the dismay of humans who were starting to enjoy not being burned by dragons, plagued by undead, and enchanted by fae.


Works in high and low fantasy games, both small and large in scale.

A cursed pale white diamond coin that leads everyone who owns it into greed to collect and hoard riches at any cost, hate for all but the coin, and an all-consuming obsession of the coin that's borderline worshiping in its intensity. It attracts those more powerful than its current owner to steal the coin any way possible, and its eventual goal is to corrupt the God of Wealth himself, ascending and taking his position by force or at least proxy.

The party must track down and destroy the coin, defeating or outwitting its many owners, and upon capturing the coin, handling its corrupting influence and the many monsters and thieves that wish to have it for themselves. The coin can only be destroyed by tossing it into a lake of solid moonlight in the elvish lands that only lights on the full moon once every thousand years, during a highly important elf-only religious ceremony where hundreds, if not thousands of elven clerics will be present, under divine orders to protect the moonlit lake from all non-elf and non-priest intervention with their lives if necessary.

>BBEG

Bleh.

nurgle shmurgle!

A bearded vulture that's also intelligent and has an electrified vomit attack. It's gathering an army of monkeys so it can rule the world as the "thunderbird" of lore. Maybe it's a bloodrager or an oracle or something the PCs wouldn't expect.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearded_vulture

The knight commander of the inquisitorial order that is a sub-sect of a major god's faith. He is actually the lieutenant of a greater evil, a skinspy substituted to watch humanity while its masters gather their depleted strength in farflung corners of the world.

A sort of paladin (my campaign is RQ6 so there are no classes and thus no direct comparison), also belonging to a holy order but in another region of the world that the party has recently come to. He is specifically tasked with hunting demons that appear throughout the countryside, and runs into the party and joins forces with them while hunting one such demon. He's something of a sorcerer knight.

He's actually the long-groomed protege of one of the most secretive School, which are humanity's sorcerous heirs of lost elf knowledge. He is guiding the party towards a temple where a cult is allegedly trying to awaken an ancient demon - he's going there because he is going to become a demon, and plans to sacrifice the party to assist his transformation.

Pic related, it's the knight commandant.

That's a /d/ pic I could even link to.

stopped reading

Witches, like the ones from MacBeth, who give adventurers prophecies that ultimately rely on self-fulfillment and not actual divination. They would pit nations against each other and nobody has caught on to them beguiling people instead of actually being prophetic.

Zergeot from adventure Time?

Sounds like lord of the rings with different thematic elements.

If there aren't antlers in all the decorating, BURN IT DOWN and steal that bookready wench.

Nobody's quite like Gaston.

How suicidal are you???

a time traveller that brought a revolver with him, an all terrain bycicle, and some ammo

He knows how to make more ammo

A Mad Max styled caravan that is laying waste to anything it finds it's path into

it's unstoppable, it's unbreakable, and if you sit in the middle, there is no horizon that the vehicles do not spread over too

it's also heading in one straight line, right towards the capital

A lich who, rather that directly have minions fight the PCs, instead uses cursed artifacts to spread chaos and confusion as he unfolds his grand scheme.

NYEH

>UGH

BBEG

But he is not especially good at expectorating.

Nobody's quite like Gaston.

I just lost The Game.

Sauron pls go

> BBEG

NYUH

The lich one sounds fun. Imagine having comically bad assassins sent at the team with instructions to reveal evil plot info, or spies asking around for the PCs description with everything perfect except for mustaches.

Just use the one from the bottom of Rappan Athuk.

The ego of mankind, that all at once bestows and represents the capacity for man to commit evil

Destroying it means destroying free will itself

I'm gonna tack on that in the Ogres quest to destroy the now old and weak adventurers, he is going after sealed or banished relics of the BBEGs the adventurers defeated.
The PCs are the adventurers children

Maybe the green is an old rival or a gold dragon known to the peaceable kingdoms. He would impersonate his rival while attacking castles and mimic his mannerisms in an attempt to turn the people against the gold. The PCs are out to clear the golds name.
Twist: It was the gold all along, for mysterious reasons

BBEG from the campaign I'm currently working on:

A dracolich frozen inside a glacier with a cult of kobolds trying to free it.

>A Lich who's sick of ruling his dark kingdom, and really just wants to have be bested in a sick ass final battle against the forces of good, but the last time there were actually any heroes around was 200 years ago

A man with god level mind power who has fallen in love with a woman and uses his powers to repeatedly seduce, or rape, or love, or murder, or hurt, or cherish her. Through different iterations of course, he simply resets the world's memories and state and lives it all again in a new way. She finds out later that some of her memories linger and she has hidden a journal away that details the hundreds, or thousands of fates she has befallen at his hands.

Yeah? You rang?

Intrigue and secrecy, I like it. Perhaps the party gets tricked into pursuing elven knowledge in ruins and lost libraries for the commander, with all the vague warnings about "do not give to humans" turning out to be true?

A werewolf has been violently murdering and consuming the peasantry of a small town. If it isn't stopped soon, it'll kill everyone, the only way to stop it is to discover which of the townsfolk is the werewolf. The irony is it's a particularly messy serial killer clad in wolf pelts with a Girdle of Giant's Strength behind the attacks, the only actual werewolf in the town is a peaceful haberdasher, who's developed a habit of locking and chaining himself in the basement each night to avoid hurting anyone.

is that a not-so-subtle stab at american foreign policy?

A lot of things are, and then a few more things are subtle stabs, so probably

Its about Soros i think.

WHEW thanks! I've so many splatbooks even I don't know of many, the Orcus in this is pretty OP though.

MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA! Perfect!
