Should Diabolists Be Player Characters? | Feb 2022

The Diabolist O.C.C. in Palladium Fantasy RPG raises a real table question: does it work best as a player character, or does it belong mainly in the Game Master’s NPC toolbox? This Legion of Myth video examines the class, its ward-based magic, and its campaign role so players and Game Masters can judge the evidence for themselves. MaxLiao argues that the Diabolist can be useful, flavorful, and fun in play. Heathendog argues that the class often works better as an NPC because its strengths, preparation needs, and table role may fit adventure design better than regular player use. If you run or play Palladium Fantasy 2nd Edition and want a clearer read on unusual O.C.C.s, ward magic, class function, and campaign fit, this debate gives you a practical way to evaluate the Diabolist before allowing one at the table.
