Fireball CL Check, Spell Penetration: 1d20 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 13 + 2 = 33

Amenset falls back a bit, and waits for the bug to be close enough to the ground, then she hurls a ball of flame at it.

Move backwards so as to not be caught in the area, then cast an Intensified Fireball (with 1 reservoir point to increase DC). Also using her Metamagic Rod to activate Selective Spell, leaving her companions out of the AOE.

Fireball! Ref DC 23 for half: 13d6 + 13 ⇒ (6, 3, 3, 2, 6, 1, 4, 6, 6, 3, 6, 6, 5) + 13 = 70

The point is to try to catch both the main bug and the swars. If I need to prepare an action, I will.

Yeah!

By the will of the gods I'm here.

As you all wish.

"Sacred damage will quickly finish it! And it can teleport, beware!"

Energy resistances?
Spell list? Given it has spell casting capacity, but I bet it has - most big demons/angels have.
DR?

Amenset started to climb hoping the rest would follow. If someone started the climbing before Amenset, that's also fine, but no one declared. Whatever happens, on her initiative the bug is gonna taste a roasted fireball with extra peanut butter.

Also, a nice roll to identify some of the monster's weaknesses... (all of them are at +19 except for Arcana, which is at +20) 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (18) + 19 = 37

Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Amenset is immune to fear.

"I'm as good as new, crop-mate. Thank you."

Then Amenset starts the arduous climbing.

Climb: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (12) + 0 = 12

I bet we are!

Amenset walks a bit closer to the wall, and adjusts to her left. She grabs some spell components and calculates the trajectory, trying to take down three of the viziers in one go. "The three on the left are mine! You focus on the worm!"

Will use her Metamagic Rod of Empower on an Intensified Fireball.
Spending a Reservoir point to increase DC.

Intensified Empowered Fireball, Ref DC 23 for half dmg: 13d6 + 13 ⇒ (5, 1, 5, 6, 3, 1, 3, 2, 2, 3, 6, 1, 4) + 13 = 55 +50% = 82

How many Viziers would I be able top catch in a Fireball?

Remember you're all Hasted. That means you get +1 to AC and to Hit, and an extra attack if you make a full attack (Zharifa ;) )

Amenset doesn't seem to find a proper spell for this situation, so for now she decides to bolster her companions a bit more. She walks to Zharifa and puts her hand on the priestess's shoulder.

"Shoot like the wind and sting like the fire, crop-mate."

Touch of Rage (Sp): Touch a creature and give it a morale bonus to attacks, damage and will saves equal to 1/2 arcanist level for 1 round. (That should be +4 to hit, damage and Will saves for 1 round, Zharifa).

Deciding none of her offensive spells will work out as needed right now, Amenset casts a group buff to let her crop-mates have some fun.

Casting Haste on all allies and advancing, but keeping the rear position.

Triggering Heightened Awareness
Initiative: 1d20 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 3 + 4 = 17

Amenset's automatic response is to cast a spell on the most direct threat: the viziers, who can turn her into a porcupine if she tries to fly or anything similar.

How many viziers? At what distance? Together or spreaded?

"Yes, yes, I believe that also... it was just symbolic. But you're right - let's get there first and talk about it later."

Amenset joins Ankhet on the way to the obelisk. If I understood correctly, we do not need to climb, right?

"Okay, as this is a test of solidarity, maybe we should take out the arrow all at once?"

Perception: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 10 + 2 = 21

"Well, we must succeed together" intervenes Amenset, "though that doesn't mean we cannot fail together. However" she goes on, "I agree with Kierna's answer. That's what I would have answered, at least. Good job, crop-mate."

Amenset nods to Zharifa in approval of her idea and crosses the improvised bridge. "Nice resolution of a problem, crop-mate." She doesn't believe waiting will bring anything positive, but still waits patiently for the rest and keeps her mouth shut.

*Closes his eyes and covers his ears to not be spoilered anymore...*

On one hand, Amenset has to give Arona a point. On the other, she thinks there are some things that could be different in that approach, but maybe it's not the best moment to split hairs in half. After all, they have to work together. She follows the others, wishing number to be a key factor in keeping them safe.

"Is someone going to have a look? I mean someone who can sneak better than I do."

Amenset is ready to cast Invisibility on the one who's scouting first.

Perception: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 10 + 2 = 21

Uh, one question: the Trials are supposed to happen on different days, right? I mean, I know we're still in the Trial of Solidarity but, once finished, we'll get to rest, I guess?

Not being really good at wilderness skills, Amenset follows the experts while casting a preemptive spell.

Casting Heightened Awareness.

Sorry guys, weekends are difficult for me sometimes.

Given the situation, Amenset would have preferred to just focus on the barrier, but when the anointed start moving towards her crop-mates...

"Um. How inconvenient. I think we should get rid of those. Try to stay away from melee for a small while, crop-mates, while I conjure a proper spell..."

Alright, so Amenset's intetions are to throw a fireball on the first round. Depending on the result she'll cast a different thing on the second. I'll post Initiative and spellcasting here, but should we finally decide not to attack, ignore it.

Also, I'm not sure how good an idea is to use non-lethal damage vs undead...

"Well, here we are... now to keep watch on any useful information that I can pass along. For Amonkhet!"

As one of her companions leads the way, Amenset cast a defensive spell and follows. She's here for the trials, but also to find clues on a possible alternative to this infinite carnage and sacrifice. Of course, not all of her ideas are to be shared...

Casting Mage Armor.

Ah, alright. Then I'll change it to "lived in many different parts of the city". Is it cool?

Wait a second, traveling? Did you miss the part where you're not allowed outside the Hekma without a god accompanying you?

Or did you just mean that she spent much of her training time on hunting patrols with Hazoret?

Oh, yes, I got that part. I'm just not sure how big that Hekma is. I mean, there are like for or five different races, I guess they must live in different settlements, right? Or do they live all mixed together?

Amenset reporting in! Amenset was raised in a minotaur community, though she's been travelling in preparation for the trials for her last pair of years. That means she could know anyone.

I think Amenset is finally ready. I've picked the Orc bloodline and called it 'Minotaur', since Minotaurs use Orcs stats. I hope you don't mind.

Uh, are there any languages besides racial languages?

Hello, this is Jereru in the making of Amenset, a blaster Arcanist with Minotaur blood on the lineage.

He's VERY WIP right now, but wanted to make her introduction.

Edit: I was going to say she was red, but it seems a lot of people thought the same... I guess she could be black, or blue also (there was a Prodigal Sorcerer, after all, in blue, as well as some other damage dealers). Actually I could be green also, since the Test of Strength would fit her (Ieinathan, we could be buddies since she's been raised by minos and that jazz).

so:

Amenset (CG Human Arcanist) - Red/Black/Blue/Green (I don't really want to step on anyone's toes)
