Posty
I had an interesting idea that your Nemesis (or a quest ending boss) could be a homunculous or clone generated, in part, from one of the oldest and most revered members of the kingdom (with allusions being to Jick). Thus, a magical or technological monster made from some of Jick's cells would be your opponent.
Perhaps this enemy would have some of Jick's alleged abilities, such as using skills from any of the various classes, having a class, or being able to switch between these 'classes' in using abilities. I figure this could be interesting and maybe even challenging to program.
I don't know if such an encounter would overshadow (ha ha) the Shadow Class enemy or involve Jick in the story line too much.
Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if we called out Jarlsburg, Sneaky Pete, and Boris in other ways to help deal with the problem. Conversely, the this "Super Soldier" could also be based off of your character's last ascension (or running ascension history). That'd be interesting, indeed.
Plus, I figure that this would be as good a time as any to insert the references to Hugh Gallagher's college entrance essay (see the post before last).
That is all for now.
