I have a character that I made become a lich. At first, it was "I wanna become a lich for knowledge" cuz I couldn't think of anything better, but now I wanna make a reason he became sort of evil. I kinda wanted to take an Armstrong approach like "if the world is forever in chaos then everyone will be strong and can fend for themselves" and like while I was an adventure I was like "wow we have to help all these weak people". Also, I'm going to be fighting the other PCs. I made a brief description of him (because I made him a monster stat block) So if you all could just help me make an evil speech to give to the other party members
Togath is a lich. He used to be a member of the church of Azuth. Arocokra slave traders murdered his entire church and he was taken to the land of Tamaria where he started his adventure. He saved towns, and killed great monsters, and even demonic princes with his "friends." During these adventures, he encountered a lich. His friends were scared of this monster while he wanted to fight it. they managed to escape without confrontation. While they were back at the town nearby Togath went to the Liches lair and told the lich that the others revealed his existence so he went to the city and was defeated while Togath stole the knowledge on how to become a lich. He crafted the potion necessary and the phylactery. After defeating a great giant, Togath planted his potion on him, pretended not to know what it was, and drank it. He began to slowly die as they were transported to hell slowly. When they fought the demonic prince of this level he exploded, ending in the prince's death. after a couple of days, he reappeared at his phylactery.
Sounds like he sees himself as the apex predator sort of thing. Everybody else is too weak to survive without his help, so their role is just to be food for him now. You probably want to hit notes like...
1) the laws of the universe are cruel, so i must be cruel as well, 2) morality and decency were simply holding me back, 3) if everyone could see the truth like I do, they'd all behave like I do. You know, Rick Sanchez stuff. With the closer being, 4) in my new world order, I aim to have others become like me, and the deaths of everyone else are immaterial or at least justifiable for this goal.
