21st May 2007 Throne of Orcus (Part 2)!

Okay, some of you may remember Part 1 of the Throne of Orcus adventure, well here is Part 2.

In honour of the release of the print version of the Immortals Handbook - Epic Bestiary: Volume One TODAY I'll be updating the website with a new (and hopefully interesting) article every day this week. Extra special thanks to everyone who has supported me and my work over the years - I honestly couldn't have got here without you.

Immortal Demographics

But what if the character has existed for hundreds, thousands or even millions of years?

Everytime you double a characters lifespan (in this case a double-double is a quadruple) where the typical lifespan is 100 years, increase their potential level by 10%.
