Posted - 29 Jun 2014 : 17:00:08 I'd say Elminster - he gets killed all the time and brought back again and again by either Mystra or an ally. And that's just life insurance. Imagine if you're talking to him about insuring his tower in shadowdale. Its been destroyed almost as many times as it has been mentioned in books. |

Posted - 28 Jun 2014 : 00:42:50 Manshoon's greatest victory would be raking in life insurance proceeds as both the insured and the beneficiary of the policy. |

Posted - 21 Jun 2014 : 04:35:43 What about Manshoon? How would an agent even be able to identify exactly which specimen of Manshoon he has on his hands, at any given moment in time? And how many more would he have to account for, beyond the immediate one? Do the rates vary in all those different locales? Is the death of one a total loss? Or is there only a marginal depreciation of the overall entity that is Manshoon? With each additional death of a clone, does the relative value of each remaining clone appreciate? If the agent quoted a high premium, would he even survive Manshoon's wrath? |

Posted - 20 Jun 2014 : 23:04:21 I can't see anyone wanting to insure someone in Veldorn, given the monster population..... Skullport could also qualify as an area that I'd bet insurers would steer clear of. |

Posted - 20 Jun 2014 : 22:02:27 Sakkors/Thultanthor, what company in their right mind would insure a FLYING city that has made enemies of nearly ever other power group in the world? Yes, I have read the Sundering novels and I'm trying not to spoil anything here... ;-) |

Posted - 20 Jun 2014 : 20:47:02 I'd say just about any individual or even an entire Noble house in nearly any Drow City. Anyone headed to Myth Drannor pre 4e would be pretty uninsurable. Any Bhaalspawn as well. |

Three times in 1700 years is "often"?
For a deity it is, especially one as powerful as Mystra.
And twice in what, 27, 28 years!? |

Posted - 20 Jun 2014 : 16:49:01 Zhentil Keep and Myth Drannor I imagine would be near the top for locations. As for people, I'd think any adventurer intending to travel to Myth Drannor (pre-4e) or Undermountain probably voids any insurance they have. |
