I'm of the opinion that a lawyer needs a litigation-based ability, at least if s/he's practicing in America.  But mostly I'm just happy that this thread didn't die!

I was quite partial to the boy my PCs were out to rescue:

Demon Messiah
The Powers of Darkness (magic)
Be creepy as hell
Exert hellish mastery
Corrupt
Speak with forked tongue
Magic Words: demon, spawn, hellfire, pain, flay, fear

...who was surrounded by his small horde of:

Little Orphan Minion

Obey the will of the Dark Lord
Flail wildly
Painful reminder of innocence lost
Be vulnerable
Please, sir, may I have some more?

One player really didn't enjoy me using their Be vulnerable ability to cause their own deaths protecting their master.
