It does, just make sure you are not adding your magical int bonus as well
Kix manages to drop #4 but splashes Nycar and Zephyr, with the help from Beatrice, who then manages to trip one of the foes on Seif
#1 charges Kix, but provokes an AOO from Beatrice who misses
It attacks Kix and it hits dealing and a DC 14 fort or paralyzed
Seif watches in horror as the ghost on the ground attempts to bite out his throat
make a DC 17 fort or you are dead
Go Heroes
Kixzik will take a five foot step back and toss another flask at 1.
I know Seif, but some things make sense, and while I have zero issue with slaughtering you all, it makes sense to me that there is a minus in this instance. As lon as you didn't add any belt of con or cloak bonus you survive
Beatrice attacks the one trying to eat Seif
she hits twice and as a result removes the head of the ghast
The Ghast pursuing Kix burns a bit and then attacks Kix viciously
and it hits twice dealing and I need two Fort saves of 14
Go Kix and Zephyr who is no longer paralyzed
Kixzik will drop five feet back again and toss another flask at the pursuing ghast.
It looks pretty burned and charred...
Aoo
for and fort 14 or he is paralyzed
If he makes the save his attack happens
Ah missed it.
The ghast falls
Combat over. Seif comes out of paralysis a few seconds later
You shouldn't let them touch you. Beatrice says
"Yeah, got that," Seif-al-Din quips dryly. "Unfortunately, they were rather insistent on touching us."
He then sighs.
"Come on - let's keep moving, just in case there are more of them."
Seif-al-Din then continues to hurry towards the spire.
The good news is, it is not long before you get to the spire and you find that there are actually stairs moving around the outside.
I am going to make the assumption that you go up, checking for traps. After everyone gets about a third of the way up everyone finds their magical powers coming back online.
Most unpleasant. Is there anything I can do for any of you?
He sighs as the magical healing washes over him.
Many thanks. Not exactly self-perfection but welcome nonetheless.
Kix spots an incredible spider web, almost looks like churley
"Thank-you Zephyr; that was most welcome."
Seif-al-Din continues to trudge up the stairs, keeping an eye out for traps.
That is...most disturbing.
Does anyone else notice that spider web looks like my sid-er, friend Churley?
Kixzik will cautiously approach the spiderweb with bomb materials in hand.
Kix looks closer. It's uncanny
"That is... certainly odd. Perhaps his soul passed through this area on its way to Boneyard, and left an impression on the webbing?"
Seif-al-Din continues to climb.
As our heroes continue on they discover a small cache of supplies
190 gp, 13 +3 undead bane
arrows, a scroll of disintegrate, a +2 mithral buckler, and a periapt
of wound closure
They also notice a strange gray crystal
of magic and antimagic that so powerfully infused the
area, and can be harvested by simply smashing away at
the underlying stone with any bludgeoning weapon as a
full-round action. Once harvested, these strange crystals
can be worked like iron. Any piercing or slashing weapon
crafted from the crystals is exceptionally sharp, and gains
a +2 enhancement bonus to damage done. A single crystal
is large enough to forge a single light Medium weapon.
Two are required for a one-handed weapon, while four
are required for a two-handed weapon. A weapon made
of this material penetrates DR/magic even if the weapon
itself is not magic. A single crystal is worth 4,000 gp to a
smith who recognizes its usefulness—Obviously a weapon formed out of it costs 4000 more
Seif-al-Din groans.
"Isn't that always the way; you find something that would be perfect for dealing with a foe that you just faced down!"
He then pauses to regard the crystal.
"Anyone have any idea what that is? It looks... odd."
Seif-al-Din then continues on the path, steadily trudging towards the summit.
Good heavens. That's a fusion crystal that forms as a result of the combination of magic and antimagic that so powerfully infuse the
area! They're worth 4,000 gp a piece.
Kixzik will break the crystal loose and bag it.
He'll get much closer to the web to see if the spiderweb is somehow Churley's soul.
Kix is pretty sure that it is just a spiderweb. Strange, especially considering charley didn't even die on this island
What I wouldn't give to show a picture of this to someone! Hmmm...from my own experiments I know that there is a way to make silver solutions sensitive to light, through the application of an exposure to the alchemical compound I've derived from the salts created from leftover leather scraps from that tannery in Oppara...
Kixzik will start scribbling away at a notebook, almost feverish in the exultation of discovery.
By application of alchemical principles I will create a small box that will funnel light to a plate that will then leave an image that can be printed on fine parchment! I will call this device an Synthetical Visualization Chamber!
Sure make me a sleght of hand
Make a craft check then
Sorry I didn't mean alchemy. I just meant a straight up craft check. But I'll use that roll and that is good enough
Kix manages to remove the spider web without destroying it. He is holding it between himself and the wall shielding it from any wind
more crystals are found on the way to the top of the spire, at the top the entire island can be seen, and more importantly there is a long rope bridge, that sways precariously that crosses to what looks like an active volacno, with a tunnel going into it at the other and of the bridge
Seif-al-Din collects the crystals as he goes. When he reaches the top, and sees the bridge, he eyes it dubiously, and then sighs.
"Well, it looks like there is no other way..."
Gingerly, he carefully begins to cross it.
Self leads the way, there are many rumbles from the other side, but it would seem, that though it sways that the bridge is stable. He reaches the other side and the rest follow.
They move through the tunnels and the heat increases
If you do not have fire resistance make me a DC 15 fort save or take non lethal -4 to the save if you are wearing medium or higher armor
Seif-al-Din feels fine, and continues on without a care in the world.
"Come on! We must be close, now!"
The tunnel ends in a pair of red-hot metal gates, embossed
with the seal of Nex and a dwarven figure covering both door
panels, with the dwarf’s left hand on an anvil and his right hand
on a hammer.
Seif-al-Din pulls out a crowbar , and attempts to force the gates open.
giving everyone else a chance to catch up first
"That... is a good point."
Seif-al-Din pauses moments before opening the door, and searches it for traps.
Definitely not trapped, just so very hot that touching it will harm you even w the crowbar
Ahem, Zephyr do you have any frost spells prepared this morning?
[ooc]If it is Ray of frost it won't cool the door quick enough. If that is the idea[/ooc[
