Random Named Enemies

Post by theCountofMonteCristo »

With the new system for the random bosses with random names, can we get rid of named villains?

"I slew Abbazur!" "Yeah? I did that last week"
"Good news people of Bendir! Morgun the Black is dead!" "Again?"

Please, can these be redone from "Abbazur" to "Dragon Queen RANDOM NAME" from "Morgun the Black" to "Terror of Bendir RANDOM NAME" ?

Is this possible, or would it really muck up Writs?

Have you tried killing Morghunn lately? Because you might be in for a surprise...

This has been brought up many times. And if you're going for realism over immersion then you'll be highly disappointed when Abaazur changes to *Generic Ancient Dragon Name* and still holds a pitiful hoard.

Are PCs that special that only they return from the realm of Kelemvor?

Oh my god. I never thought of it that way before. You just blew my mind.

Please don't get rid of established villains. There is a whole string of history in dungeons that connect many of the dungeons together, and without names it would make it near impossible for us to figure out who is behind XYZ dungeon.

Named villains are more like bosses, while the random named ones are lieutenants.

Can it be true that our dear friend Morghunn has met his match?

Because if he has, perhaps all his Blackguards and Soldiers should stop cluttering up the Forest of Despair and the Wharftown Boys lair...

Temporarily back to Arelith and currently 'Hanna'.
