Transmutations are not her speciality, protections are :)
I've decided I will not retrain Arloric's weapon proficiency after all. I'm sticking with longswords. Sorry for bugging you all about it!
Here's how the silence will work.
As an emanation, the spell constantly radiates its effect outward, updating and shifting as the area changes. If you place silence on the door, it will emanate outward from both sides of the door - you don't pick one side and then have it emanate only on that side, any more than if you cast it on a person it targets one point on their body and emanates out from there, with their body blocking part of the emanation and creating a "noise shadow." The entire target emanates the aura of silence for the duration.
This means that you won't make any noise breaking down the door or shutters, but you won't be able to hear anything, either. Also, if there's someone on the other side, they may become aware that the silence effect has fallen.
You don't know where the shutters lead; they are on the second floor, so they don't go into the ground floor room. If you had an idea of what was on the other side you could make an informed decision about whether silence would tip your hand or not.
What if it's cast on a point on the ground in front of the door? That is what I am getting at when I say "cast on one side of the door". I mean, it's cast somewhere that envelops the door, but only one side of it is facing the emanation.
Sure, you can do that. The door will block the emanation until you break a hole through it, at which point the emanation will come through that hole (the aforementioned "noise shadow").
Ahhh, what the heck. Let's be bold. If we put Silence on the door itself, that may alert someone to our presence, but...if someone is there to be caught up in Silence, then they are also right in front of the door, too. This way, we'll make them move if they want to shout a warning.
I say we do this:
1. I cast Bless (1 min/level)
2. I cast Protection from Evil (1 min/level) on someone who wants it. At the same time, Merlin casts Enlarge Person on Uriel
3. Everyone holds until after I act in initiative, I cast Silence on the door, and then you all start beating the crap out of it. (Looks like 2-4 people can contribute to this effort since it's double-doors).
Silence will last 3 rounds. I suspect we'll break the door in 2 - 3 rounds. Leaving:
4. Rush in and pound the first demon or tiefling we see.
If you're lucky they may just freak out and think they've gone deaf. It's the end of the world, not the weirdest thing to happen.
Sounds good, let's do it.
If all else fails, we could just literally knock on the door
I like Kelly's idea...lol. Sometimes simple is better.
Brain fart. So, at levels 1-5, it's +1?

Description
Calling upon the strength and wisdom of a deity, you gain a +1 luck bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls for every three caster levels you have (at least +1, maximum +3). The bonus doesn't apply to spell damage.
Correct, Merlin!
Gentle reminder: don't forget to position yourself on the Roll20 map. So far, only Uriel and Aberus are inside. :)
Additionally, just as a formatting feature, would you prefer that I put all my rolls under spoilers? Is it easier to read the turn summaries that way?
@Telerin: Your token should be movable again.
At work if someone can place Merlin please.
Spoilering does help tidy things up. Just call it the GM Screen
Hey gang, my team has been put on overtime at work until our release in June. I will try to keep updating but I may have some loooong nights of a lot of work.
Take your time! We'll be here! :)
Things have gotten hectic for me at work and I am putting in some long hours. I will be spotty over the next few days.
We'll be here when things get more normal for you!
Overtime continues! I'm sorry to be slower than normal. OT should end in about a month.
Dont feel bad, the next 3 weeks are nuts with the last weeks of school, finals and graduation this week.
And work too! We've got a sold-out hotel from just ONE convention, and our CEO is visiting this week! 0_o
That is always fun.
All this gusto Arloric has fighting tieflings is gonna weigh heavy on his conscience when he finds out his IS one! >:)
Fratricide
DRAMA!
Hooray, one more week of school. We will be done next Wed.
Congrats!
Just so you're aware, I'll be out of the internet on Friday and Saturday to attend my cousin's wedding. See you when I get back on Sunday!
have fun and be safe.
I'm back!
Azura, I believe Merlin moved into the corner last round.
If he didn't move the token, he didn't move.
He's not competing with anyone for the space; moving or not moving isn't going to stop any of the tieflings from completing their actions.
Having trouble moving my token.
Relinked. Roll20 seems to keep losing record of who controls which character token - another strike against it...
Yesterday was the last day of school for the year and I came home exhausted. There was a death in the family this morning as well.
I am really not a fan of Roll20.
Fudge and cupcakes! My luck with attack rolls has been terrible in almost every game I'm in lately!
Overtime should end in about a week and a half!
Take as long as you need!
There is some crazy stuff happening here at home (we're fine; it's a different kind of crazy). Feel free to bot Aberus so I don't hold anyone up.
*nudge-nudge* Hallo?
Well THAT swing was underwhelming, but at least it still hit!
My team wound up going crunch-to-crunch. We finished our release but I have a post-release piece coming this week, and then we have to crunch to a new release coming in a few months. :/
I am still here, just been doing a loooot of overtime.
Do I crit? DO I CRIT?! 8D
Missed it by 2.
Aw. :(
SO SAD
Dont feel bad. I am in a PFS game right now where the DM's dice are nasty to us, he has hit for high damage and we miss 90% of the time.
Is everyone at full HP?
