Needs a good pimp.
I've been on Tvtropes for two years, and never, not once, saw this page until I typed 'lich' into the bar. I could understand this if I was, say, a historical fiction fan, but I'm a hardcore fantasy and scifi geek. This page needs... dramatic music... an Entry Pimp to provide a few links.
My name is Cu Chulainn. Beside the raging sea I am left to moan. Sorrow I am, for I brought down my only son. Hide / Show RepliesCharacters Called "Liches" Who Don't Quite Match Specs: Greg Costikyan's "Another Day, Another Dungeon" had a lich as, basically, the Only Sane Man for Team Evil. He once spent a century as only a skull being used as a birdfeeder because he angered The Powers That Be.
Hide / Show RepliesSorry, what I meant to be asking was, is this an appropriate entry for this page? I mean, the lich was a socerer and he was definitely undead, but I don't think he'd hidden his soul anywhere particular...
Most of our monster pages are called "Our ___Are Different", including this one. So if it's called a lich in the source material, it counts, no matter how different it is.
Of course, what to do with monsters that aren't called liches is another story.
From the webcomic folder, there was a hidden reveal that implies that Richard of Looking For Group might not actually be (un)dead. I won't post this on the main page due to the hidden nature of the reveal, but I am trying to get the word out.
Until death do we part
