 Re: Lord Winter?
viewtopic.php?f=75&t=25271 This is all we got. The rest is in the RPG. Basically Winter and his followers are hold up on his Plane of Ice. If he stays there long enough he can ascend to godhood. If he loses his ring, he can become a bascarite god. (Syneri's ring is the only thing keeping the taint of Bascaron from corrupting him)

 Re: Lord Winter?
Its not if he stays there long enough, he simply needs enough people (likely elves) to worship him as a god. However, that concept is so foreign to elves it will likely never happen. Were he to loose Syneri's ring, he could start gaining bascarite worshippers and ascend in that manner.

 Re: Lord Winter?
It's both. The blurb says that if he returns and expands the plane and his mortal followers, he can become a minor god. It would take centuries for him to become as strong as any of the 'established' pantheon gods though.

 Re: Lord Winter?
I was going by the write up provided in the rpg.

 Re: Lord Winter?
As was I.
First two lines: "Should Winter return and spend more time expanding both his plane and his mortal followers, he may yet become a god."

 Re: Lord Winter?
What's the latest on his bride Arionrhod? I remember some flavor text saying that they needed to rescue her asap.
If her fate is still up for grabs I'd like to see her remain a ghost but in a stable form.
