Default Melnibonee Mod - Suggestions needed

Hi there!

I'm working on a mod for Vanheim based on the eternal hero chronicles from Michael Moorcock.

Of course I want to field Elric as an (anti)hero. However, I feel unable to balance his magical abilities. If taken directly from the books, he should have more then 5 in every magic paths (he summons multiple elemental queens and even chaos lords, comparable to greater demons). Of course this is way to much for dominions.

What would you give him?

Linked randoms so that he has somewhat different powers each time he appears.

I am not sure if it can be modded yet though.

Horror mark, cursed, cursing ability, base encumberance = 50, and a built-in lifedraining greatsword.

Very nice suggestion. I will have a look.

I thought about diseased with recuperation. That way he will die if he does not fight over a long period of time or has no regenerating items. But I think we all agree with the base encumberance and the big sword

Randomly kills other heros and units in the same province ?

Sword should definitely be cursed as well and probably cause attacks of some kind.

Add berserk(+0). Elric has no control over his sword once it starts slicing.
