I'm making a campaign and in one mission the hero must overcome three tests, one of logic, one of strength, and a third I don't know what yet...I basicly want suggestions.

Faith - Keeping true to your allegiance and not giving into temptation (bombard your player with cheats,easy paths, and make him think you can't win without it - perfect example would be to have him fight an impossible creature, but at the very last moment, right before death, a miracle happens and the creature is disposed of)

Faith would be good if we werent dealing with demons here...i'll give a brief overview...it's a demon under kil'jaedan doing the tests, they were created as a seal on an ancient evil to test the strength to combat the evil sealed away...but the demon has to be able to do it too.

Mmmm, you could still do faith, even if it was evil faith. Faith is just loyalty, so it doesn't depend on which side your on. But, if you don't want faith, heres another one -

Survival - Being thrown into a human encampment and prisoned by an elite force of captors. Must use cunning to escape.

I think ive got it...the test of Perseverence! there's some 'collapsed' rubble in the tunnel and he has to keep attacking it, even tough he only does like one point every hit...after about a minute the rubble is automaticly cleared assuming he doesnt leave.

You could make a test of fashion sense. If the hero is wearing orange armor, he/she is a failure and is sent home as a un-hip disgrace.

If he/she's in red and black, or whatever you feel is appropriate, Kil'Jaeden takes him/her to be his apprentice, because he/she is just so gol derned good looking.

Or, perhaps not.

i still think speed is a good choice

or memory, you could do that 4 button game, where it makes 1 glow, you have to hit it, then it makes the same 1 glow, and another one, and you have to hit them in that order, then 3, etc

The rock tunnel thing sounds good. Maybe call it Test of Endurance.

For the test of logic, make something like one of the ff10 puzzels, with the orbs.

k, got them down! It will be the tests of Wisdom, Valor, and Perseverence.

Wisdom: the button puzzle.

Valor: Fight a large group of weak enemies (I've tested, the hero can defeat them all, but only if he stands and fights...if he tries anything fancy or retreats some etc he will lose...thats not Valor!!!

Perseverence: The 'destroy the rock' thing.

Shoot! I was going to suggest a test of stealth. You know, cross a given area without being spotted by guards of some kind. Kind of like the first undead mission in RoC, except in there you could still fight your way through if you got spotted.

Ah well, just wanted to say it anyway even if it is too late.

Valor isn't really a demon thing. From what I know, (I'm a demonologist, not kidding), Demons aren't that honourable but are back-stabbing b*****ds who would rather run, live and win later than stand a chance of getting beaten (although you can win, the player isn't supposed to know that)

This particular demon is similar to a follower of Khorne in the Warhammer universe. He exists to be strong, and not much else. He in fact gets manipulated multiple times by other, smarter demons during the campaign :)
