John McCain (Demon Prince of Republicans.) (Lesser God.)

FREQUENCY: Very rare
NO APPEARING: 1
ARMOUR CLASS: -7
MOVE: 3" (72" per flight sector on the campaign jet)
HIT DICE: 200 hit points (But first you have to defeat 4d8 Secret Service Agents)
% IN LAIR: 0%
TREASURE TYPE: All your NATO base are belong to us!
NO. OF ATTACKS: 1
DAMAGE/ATTACK: Invades Iran. Takes 100d20 casualties in first strike while inflicting 20 x 100d20 civilian casualties. Followed by war of attrition, economic collapse, recrimination.

CHARISMA: 12 (16 to neocons)
ALIGNMENT: Chaotic evil if under control of Cheney; otherwise Chaotic neutral.
SIZE: M
LEVEL/X.P. VALUE: X/29,950* (* for impeachment)

A huge, ancient, carnivorous dinosaur from the swamps at the heart of Republican country, not unlike Godzilla in appearance and wrinkled integument, McCain has seen better years. Nevertheless he can breathe fire and threaten to stomp flat the capital city of any country that Fox News disapproves of with the best of them.

The biggest danger in facing off against a McCain is that he might be under the mind control of the Svengali-like Cheney, Prince of Darkness. In this case, he is likely to be lethally aggressive and even more unpredictable than usual.


Hilary Clinton (Demon Queen of Pork Belly Futures.) (Lesser Goddess.)

SIZE: 14
LEVEL/X.P. VALUE: X/12,250* (* for impeachment)

As with all Clintons, Hillary exudes negative charisma towards Republicans. Otherwise, she's a classic machine reptile.


Barack Obama (Demon Prince of Upsetting Applecarts.) (Lesser God.)

FREQUENCY: Very rare
NO APPEARING: 1
ARMOUR CLASS:
MOVE: 3" (72" per flight sector on the campaign jet)
HIT DICE: 200 hit points (But first you have to defeat 4d8 Secret Service Agents — unless attacking in Texas, Florida, or other Republican-held states)

ALIGNMENT: Law Professor
SIZE: M
LEVEL/X.P. VALUE: X/89,950* (* for impeachment)

Handsome, intelligent, charismatic, and he manages to sound absolutely wonderful ... but how do you know what else is lurking under that sleek exterior? The Obama's main advantage in combat is that he makes everyone else in the melee look absurdly aggressive or foolishly short-sighted, sapping their Charisma. Probably the lesser evil, so once you elect him you'll have the luxury of knowing you've been eaten by the right lizard god.

Richard "Dick" Cheney (Prince of Darker than Darkness)

FREQUENCY: Very rare

If you crossed a T-Rex with a velociraptor from the heart of Republican country, you'd be off to a good start. Aggressive, lethal, gruff, works in shadows, doesn't care what you think. It can breate acid. And lightning.

Ralph Nader (Demon Prince of Independants) (Lesser God.)

SPECIAL ATTACKS: 80% chance of reminding you about his "consumer rights" victories 30 years ago (causing instant sleep and loss of initiative)
SPECIAL DEFENSES: +10 or better weapon to hit, and note the AC (again!)- it's hard to get a killer blow on this guy!)
MAGIC RESISTANCE: 80% (0% vs. suggestions that he run again)
INTELLIGENCE: High
CHARISMA: 11
ALIGNMENT: Neutral.
SIZE: M
LEVEL/X.P. VALUE: X/109,950* (* for actually getting the guy elected)

An ancient "consumer rights" warrior who has had Raise Dead cast on him so many times, and lived so many lives, that he exists in a permanent, magical state of life/death/undeath. This essentially makes him immune to damage of any kind, and it would take a very inventive party indeed to kill him off. Note that no XP is actually gained for killing him -- only for the impossible task of actually getting him elected
