she can be killed whilst on her own plane. Also there is always a chance of course that it was only a simulcrum

so who prefers the evil character over the good or neutral alignments.... I know of a right nasty fighter ogre magi named Blackthorn. Previously he was a good fighter but got reincarnated as an ogre mage.
Blackthorn was an Ultima V figure almost two decades ago. He was a good regent of Lord British's who ended up being corrupted into evil by the Shadowlords.
I play ranger, wizard, and thief mostly.

Azeal is the great deamonic (?) Death Knight.
he is a demi - god who studies arcane law, summoning spells and the great chaos sphere of magic.
He rules over his underlings from his great castle in a huge cavern under the realms of famine, where his Champion, Lord Antharg, resist's all challenges from the puny mortals that dare to defy his master's rule.
It is fortold that one day, when his study of the black arts is complete, Azeal will summon a great army of deamons and succubus, and despoil the known world.
sounds like fun..................😵😉

I would agree that for being Gods their stats are a little low in my opinion, but like I said before, it would take a rediculous player character to actually kill one of them. I mean, seriously, have you looked at the details for some of them? Once you get to epic level with a character, it's really all about making your save rolls. Roll poorly at the wrong time, you're dead (and probably a little pile of ash at best, if not blown into a million pieces). To get a character to the three digit level is mind boggling. While it know it has been done by some of the hard core gamers out there, it is still a rediculous undertaking. I tip my bards hat to whomever gets their character even half way there.
The gods in AD and D are not even that high a level.

The gods are pretty burly nowadays. While I don't really think it would necessarily take a lvl. 125 character to kill one, I also think the odds of anything less than an epic level character attempting this would be nothing short of a spectacular suicide. I have actually been quite curious about this sort of thing (highly due to an unfavorable encounter between one of my best charcters, a half-orc Eye of Grummush, and the god Lathanier. Let's just say I want my crown back and I'm mad as hell.) and have done a fair bit of research. At best, a party of several (5+) epic level characters (say lvl. 50 or so) might stand some small chance of this. At worst, a multiclass character with levels of 100+ that rolls really, really well could do this (in theory atleast). I do, non the less, believe that the current stats are still a bit low for gods. For that matter, I think the demi-gods are a joke. My level 20 Eye of Grummush could stand toe to toe with most of them on his worst day.
EDIT: Lathanier will be mine yet. Oh yes, he will be mine. 😉
