And they will eventually be destroyed by accidents or rot or calamities, one by one, without anyone to make new ones.

I wonder what Toben's thoughts on necrophilia are.
Do us a favor Luv, Stick yer 'ead in a bucket a kick it!

So, gentlemen, that's how it is. Until Grissome.... resurfaces, I'm the acting president, and I say starting with this... anniversary festival, we run this city into the ground! :D

On second thought, I have a player and a character who could very easily be manipulated into being the first person ever to become a Toben zombie by way of venereal disease...

Talk about an orgy gone way, way wrong.

That just makes me question... is an orgy more than 3 people? Or more than 3 bodies? XD

A freshly dead corpse could make for extremely effective false-flag or infiltration work by Toben. Imagine if Toben smothered the mayor one minute, then seized control of his still-warm body the next and began ratifying laws. Or a general is drowned in his bath and then Toben gets him up to order disastrous large-scale military actions.

Granted, both of these are a bit insidious for the current discussion of Toben, which seems to veer more towards the deranged taunting joker type of personality.

Would suck if that general sent the PC's in somewhere that was a suicide mission. XD

Why do i suddenly have an image of Vlad Drakov's general's sending out attacks on every single surrounding domain at once? xD

Give that a sick twist and it sounds like Toben to me. :D

You mean, an unplanned invasion of Darkon by 1000 Falkovians without any provisions or logistic preparations is not funny?!? :shock:

WHOA!! Time out! Let's not get into that. I'm pretty open-minded when it comes to sexual content, but that's going too far even for me. The idea of supernatural diseases, like the Shadow and Zombie Viruses being venereal...okay, I can accept that. But let's not go any farther.

Agreed. Let's stop the sexual content right there. Back to Toben. Moderator has spoken.

We were past that till you two unearthed it.

We are in the Jokes Toben would play from a position of power. Some stiff Lawgiver cleric for example, could make a target for Toben.

Even better. Toben takes over multiple officials and has them issue conflicting orders that have their living followers scramble to keep up. The more bizarre, meaningless, confusing and contradictory the better. Then make the consequences for disobeying the orders just as bizarre and brutally harsh. And suddenly your Ravenloft campaign has veered into Paranoia territory. :D
