I don't know, I think I can imagine worse fates.

Would I keep my better base Will?

He's going to drag you down to Hell.

And that's if you're lucky!

I think you mean that She's going to drag him down to Hell.

Permalink

She's going to turn him into a devil that can't remember its own name.

The archetype doesn't say that I'm damned until level 13.

My friend, there are many unfortunates damned to Hell without having it as one of their listed class features. 

Permalink

I've always heard that empowered priests go to their god's domain.

Permalink

That is a very good reason not to permanently die against a non-shadow enemy until after I've renounced Asteriskodeus.

Permalink

...None of you can hear me, can you.

Look, moron, you can't get something for nothing, and there's no such thing in this world as a free lunch.

If you haven't made a deal, you're being robbed. You're Clueless, in the Ornellian sense, and if you had three wits to juggle you'd renounce your dark god and never talk to another devil in your life.

But if none of you can hear me, that means I can say whatever I want! As it won't make the slightest difference!

Oh, what liberation!

Poop.

Fart.

Boobies.

I haven't actually spoken with any devils, yet.

I'm not saying that I disagree with you, Ileosa, but aren't Asmodeans supposed to be in favor of Asmodeus taking their stuff?

Permalink

Obviously Asmodeus says you should give him your everything and get nothing back, but if you believe him that's on you! Asmodeanism is halfway about taking idiots for rides and saying it's their own fault for letting you, and half of the other half is not being one of those idiots

Because you're so much smarter than I am. 

Permalink

Yes! Yes I apparently am!

Altronus, look,

There are people in Westcrown - people people, not just the wizards and new money - who'll sell their souls to devils on the promise that they won't be broken in Hell.

Most of them are broken in Hell! I've watched, by scry, because I'm not stupid. 

Random Wescrani petty nobility don't have anything they can offer that's worth anything to Hell, and you can't get something for nothing, but random Wescrani petty nobility aren't competent to realize that and walk away from the phistophilus and so they just keep trying. And when you turn down counteroffers from someone who doesn't want anything you want to sell at the price you want to sell it, and you keep doing this until you get a deal that you can't see any problem with, you're not just asking to be taken for a ride you are literally demanding it. Wescrani nobles walk off happy with some contract that looks like it'll take the work of an inglorious life to repay but is actually impossible, and they think that they're safe, when there was never any chance of that, not for someone like them who has nothing to sell. It's different for someone important, like Abrogail Thrune.

I'm smarter than you at least are acting, because I know what I'm worth, and I know when a deal looks too good to be true.

Mm.

However much you think you're worth, though, I bet I'm worth more.

I'm a main character.
