Within this vale
Of toil and sin,
Your head grows bald
But not your chin.
Yet I can fix that.
  (wave big bladed weapon at chin level)

With apologies to the Burma-Shave company.

Making it up as I go along:

     If I was writing the Tome of Lore, I would let Auppenser sleep. But I also would have him dream.
     In his dreaming he re-activates the innate powers of (some) mortal minds. Or his dreaming changes the nature of reality - currently very malleable thanks to Spellplague &c. Or whatever really cool flavor text and pseudo-science explanation people react positively to.

You know, I like that better than the explanations for the Spellplague.

My plot device: http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/ … #489880509 (The reaction is the next post.)

Prepped ahead of time:
I started the thread "1001 Failed Interrogation Results"

These are all good and make sense!  I just can't come up with something that's not covered here and is not completely ridiculous.

My characters:
Spoiler: Show

Active Characters:
LFR Half-elf StarLock6     Gondolin Nightstar
AoA Dwarf Guardian Druid6     Narvik from House Wavir

Character A-building:
Neverwinter Dwarven Invoker / Heir of Delzoun / worships Silvanus (!)
"Truenamer" - speaks Words of Creation

Concepts I'm kicking around:
"Buggy" Wizard - insect flavor on everything
Halfling Tempest Fighter - just because nobody else is doing it
Shifter Beast-o-phile Druid - for PoL campaign

"Darkness beyond blackest pitch, deeper than the deepest night.  King who shines like gold within the Pit of Chaos, I call upon thee!  Swear myself to thee!  Let the fool who stands before me be destroyed by the power you and I possess!" -Adapted from the Giga Slave, for an avenger of the Chained God

"Blade with whom I have lived, blade with whom I now die, serve right and justice one last time, seek one last heart of evil, still one last life of pain, cut well old friend, and then farewell."

The flight of dragons Rankin Bass 1982

The sea looks at the stabillity of the mountian and sighs.
The mountian watches the freedom of the sea and cries.

This one is authentic, but only applicable against certain foes:

The bearded devil
Is forced to dwell
In the only place
Where we don't sell

At Tara in this fateful hour,
I place all Heaven with its power,
And the sun with its brightness,
And the snow with its whiteness,
And the fire with all the strength it hath,
And the lightning with its rapid wrath,
And the winds with their swiftness along their path,
And the sea with its deepness,
And the rocks with their steepness,
And the Earth with its starkness —
All these I place
By God's almighty help and grace
Between myself and the powers of darkness.

Boom!

For my Raven Queen worshipping Shadar-Kai Avenger:

Audio vox Dominae. 
Illa te arcesidt, 
Quod tuus fortuna emitar.


Translated from Latin it is:
I hear the voice of my Mistress.
She has summoned you,
and I am to deliver you to your fate.

Gah, this is ripped and adapted from somewhere but for the life of me, I can't remember where.

Killing? Oh, killing isn't hard.
Killing is the easiest thing in the world. That's why it's so bloody popular.
It's the dying that's the hard part. Allow me to demonstrate how easy it is to kill, and how hard it is to die.

For the intolerant: Burn the heretic, kill the mutant, purge the unclean!


*muttered under breath, as though in prayer* May your next life be a peaceful one.




And finally: And so, it falls to me once again, to separate evil men from their lives.



I personally prefer one-liners for oaths and usually think of them as short prayers, not warcries. But eh, some of the stuff here is cool enough to rip off Tongue out

...For a warforged avenger of just about anyone:

" I am [Evangelion]TitanicusPrincipio Eternus!  The enemies of [man] shall die!  By my hands, they shall be broken!"
