Greetings fellows; just letting all my games know that I'm going on a camping thing for three days, starting tomorrow. There's a goodly chance I'll still have internet access but I may not, so I thought I should let you all know in case my posts slow down. Happy new years, everyone!
Lyle turns and stares at the wall for a moment. Finally, he mutters quietly "Very well, Sir Nic, I'll give you three days, and try and find your will and let it be read. Then, we are quits, my friend." Turning to the speaker, he replies "Has no one spoken with them yet? If so, wouldn't you prefer to have their first record? And if not, I would prefer to hear your perception of their reports, if you would be so kind."
Lyle steps forwards with a smile and taps Telcia and she vanishes. "Enjoy."
Still unsatisfied, Lyle draws his whip and hovers above the bridge after Tiran, his free hand extended and ready to catch the impetuous swordsman if necessary.
Lyle scratches his chin and thinks. "Telcia, you are the best of us at hidden movement. Shall Rosa and I cast invisibility and flight spells on you and send you in to scout things out? Alternatively we could do the same for me; I can fly in unseen, teleport back, grab you all and teleport in."
Lyle nods, points hesitantly at the barrier and crosses it, waiting to see if he'll be stopped.
Lyle nods and holsters his whip. "Bushwhacking it is, then."
Lyle doesn't quite manage to swallow his grin. "These fellows seemed to enjoy it." Thinking now, he adds "How difficult would it to be to create an illusion they could not pierce?"
As he watches Rosa's performance, Lyle knows deeply within his heart that she is cruel, terrible and a great force for evil in this land. Sadly, however, he knows that he always finds her unfailingly hilarious and this will most likely lead him down the path of demons. BUT SHE'S JUST SO DAMN AMUSING! Holding in his guffaws, Lyle turns to their new best friend. "What would you say would be the chances of convincing the sisters that you've captured us all? Lock us up and then we break out and spread a little chaos?"
His expression growing grimmer as he arrives at and is shunted to the side of the door, Lyle scratches his chin and looks carefully at the scene. "Not much chance someone just forgot their keys, is there?"
Lyle raises an ale to the nonplussed room and goes up to bed.
..nice, nice, nice and nicer. I can't wait to see what she's like personality wise.
Suffering one of his terrible premonitions of the future, Lyle groans and slaps his hands around his ears as Rosa rushes in.
Heh, I thought she was a little tough for a succubus... Happy to have her as one of her minions.
How much is one of those helmets? Charm Person and one of those and the BBEG becomes the new member of our team...
Lyle takes it with a surprised smile. "My lord- the old fellow owed me money when he died, I thought he'd wrangle his way out of paying it now he'd passed into the beyond... I find myself strangely disappointed. Odd." Turning, Lyle shakes Tanirel's hand and nods. "Lyle Rihannsu, at your service. A fellow acquaintance of Sir Nicolo, I take it?"
Curiously, Lyle makes a pass through the air and examines the tiara for magic. Learning enough about it to guess at its nature, the tiefling stops and looks at Rosa in frank amazement. "You sneaky wonderful b%~%+, Rosa..." Eagerly, he waits for the creature to don the tiara...
One of the demi-Queens who flies between the celestial bodies?
Lightning-quick, Lyle reaches out and grabs Jeager before he can do anything, stopping him dead. "HOLD, adventurer!" he barks at him.
"What is your name?"
Lyle dismisses his transformation spell and retrieves his whip. "Well well well, what's all this then, eh?"
Irritated at her escape, Lyle repeats his grabbing attempt with his new claws.
Overhearing, the green-skinned tiefling lifts himself off his table and walks over to Taniriel and the rest. "Afraid I have never met the good fellow, excuse my coming over here but I could hear old Nicolo berating me from beyond the grave for sitting in the dark blathering on with my thoughts. Might I join you?"
Sitting quietly at a back table, the green-skinned form of the tiefling named Lyle Rihannsu drunkenly grasps his heavy and nearly-empty tankard; the many fresh stains on the table indicate it isn't his first. Raising it, he toasts the empty chair in front of him. "Proud and noble Hellknight, great warrior of the forces of Law, greater enemy of the forces of Chaos and Deceit... and you still manage to die owing me money" Lyle mutters through a thick tongue. Breaking into a small smile, he toasts the chair again. "Fight well in Hell, Nicolo. I've no doubt it's heaven for you, and after an eternity's fighting with your ghost all the demons will desert and make for the Abyss." Raising his tankard, Lyle shoves the remains of his beer down his throat, and THUDs the tankard back onto the table, shortly followed by his head.
Been awhile, but still interested.
Yeah, I think combat and initiative in particular is being messed up, sorry GM. An obvious symptom- all/most of us have done actions and then its been revealed that the enemy did something for their action before which means ours are invalid. And we don't get a chance to change our actions, they're just wasted. As far as changes to GM, I think you just need to post the enemy's action at the top of the round, since it has the highest initiative, and let us make our actions in response to whatever it does. This'll hopefully prevent invalid/retconned actions and the like.
"Oh, stop prevaricating and get down here and be killed" Lyle mutters irritably. Stepping forward, he casts a spell morphs into a tall creature with a crablike head. Dropping his whip, he slams into her and tries to grapple her.
Can Lyle have Overland Flight up? It lasts 16 hours so he would definitely have it running all day.
Lyle tilts his head curiously at the fallen dwarf as the wave of energy washes over him. "At worst i'd say that tickled, were you expecting more...?" Stepping around the creature carefully, Lyle aims some magic at him and then strikes out with his whip again.
Actions: Swift Action: Arcane Pool. Spend 2 points to buff weapon with Brilliant Energy
Full-Round-Action: Spell Combat, cast Haste and then make my full-attacks, trying to trip the dwarf with each one. Crit confirm If I trip him and have attacks leftover, I'll use the rest of the attacks to disarm him, and if I have more leftover after that my damage is 1d6+15
