How would your latest character react if during a confrontation the BBEG he would say 'Everything going as predicted is actually starting to worry me'?
>uses "BBEG"
>makes a dumb thread
It's like pottery.
>>48934225
>You're just saying that to get out of paying me my money!
Followed by several explosions.
Though I'd be surprised, as a player. The whole campaign started off because the BBEG didn't realize my character was undead during their first meeting.

>Noblebright Heroic Party Of Paladin Maidens (Or something close enough)
Plot twist: the BBEG wasn't the BBEG, but a good guy who realized that he can't deal with the real BBEG from the prophecy and became the "fake" BBEG to get him some heroes.
You find out about this from the "BBEG"s diary or a letter found in the treasury.
The mooks you slaughtered were guys from some relatively obscure holy order.
Everything you went through was basically set up training for you.
And other stuff like that.
>The Prophecy is Fake.
>Hundreds of holy men and righteous people and other beings commited assisted suicide with your help.

Just stab him, and ask him "Did you see this fucking coming?"
>>48934225
I'd be really confused, for a number of reasons:
>I am in a situation where I cannot fight the BBEG despite being in his presence
>The BBEG is opting for polite conversation with me instead of killing/torturing me
>The BBEG is actually confiding in me
Unless I have some sort of deep personal relationship with me this makes no sense. I assume I'm not in a position to fight the guy because that's what any character of mine would do right now instead of listen to this day's monologue.
When Darth Vader captured Han Solo he didn't spend a half hour shooting the shit. He marched them all into the freezing chamber.

What sort of beliefs would such an order need in order to perpetuate long enough to get to this point?

I recall a brunch follows by some torture.
>>48934225
Where's the picture from?
>>48937960
Nah the brunch was just bait. Somehow I don't think George and Lawrence really imagined Han sitting down and eating roast potatoes with Vader and Boba as canon.
Made for a funny Robot Chicken skit though.
>>48934225
Actually had this. Poor guy was shot by 50-man squad at sight. Didn't even finished the line.
>>48934225
Considering that both of the BBEGs, who are opposed to each other, would be well within their right to say this, my players might react with utter confusion. Because they don't know how bad one guy is, or that the other is even a bad guy. Yet.Anima. The first guy's BarnabusYes, THAT Barnabus.The other is the Shadow of Omega. They think he's pretty nice.

I can see it now.
>"So I hear you've been taking interest in my daughter."
>"What's your stance on the Force?"
>"What's your retirement plan?"
>"Pass the salt."
If I was an evil overlord that would be delicious as shit and I'd savor every moment of it.
