who's next?
Does caster level get factored into the touch attack? I can never remember that one.[/ooc] Nah, it's just like a regular ranged attack- BAB+dexmod+any relevant feats and such. Did my beetle crit the dude or just hit with his nat20?
Aref move closer to the action (O17) and begins the intoning "Lubriv'itik!" as he gestures and indicates an area beneath the feet of his friends' foes.
Don't forget--Aref moved to J14
Aref moves to an open part of the room (J14) and chants in a sing-song voice, "Comen Hali Avi Carapak!!" and draws a fire beetle from beyond our realm into being. A beetle that glows with a faint aire of goodness and right, Aref urges him on. (conjured into O16) The insect wastes no time and charges the two men in the doorway opting to hit the one on the right (charge to T19 and attack dude in U19 with a smiting bite-1d20+3=22 to hit, 2d4+4=10 damage.
Tank you, friend Jon. That should teach the cretin to go about messin' vith one's camel!
*GULP!*
"Drasheer?!?! I believe ve has trouble coming from outside that I shall check on..."
1d20+6=15 perception.
"And some...thing else is near also.....I can't tell who or vhat..."
"I say ve head in de front door. Face our fate head on and all..."*checks in his bag* "Be wary, de Eye is aglow. Vass is near to us."
"Dis is a lovely place!"
Ve must make for de temple with haste! Come now, move, before you are all picked clean of valuables.
Cordoba shrugs and follows, "Why not?" he mutters. "Me also, my friend! Ve shall face the dangers united for to be divided is to lessen our strength."
"You vill be safe in the tunnels, and in the bazaar the throng is so dense that it too should keep you... relatively safe." Which of course, means no less safe than is normal in the bazaar. Thank you my friend, and may your camels alvays find the straightest path.
"Drasheer, remember! Alvays show a lady respect. She vill come around. I will return for you and would like your hide to not have several donkey-bites out of it. Buttercup is a lady and as such you must respect her wishes and work to win her over through your actions."
Aref smiles at the good plan Gulaf puts in motion with his people and says, "Yes. The Pillar vould be a good idea, servants of the goodly gods vill be well armed to help vith such a vile creature as we have on us while we figure out how to trap de demon."
Cordoba, I have vith me a book on summoning. Ve just haven't had much time to peruse it for something of vorth. Perhaps myself and our mage-friend could find a nice area to really go over it vithin dis warehouse and out of sight of our nemesis while the rest of you shop about.
Sir! Hello to you and well met.
I could Missile it or sent a couple friends from another plane to kill it if you vish. Anyvon else have an idea?
Thank you Draka, may your journeys be short and water be frequent! Vhat should ve do with poor Aki? I could bring her vith us until ve find someone to heal her of her affliction or kill de demon. Drasheer may look a bit rough but he moves with barely a sway in his step and vould be a most comfortable perch for our little sleeping chick-a-dee.
I vonder if de donkey and my camel could cross-breed, a hybrid of both would be quite a thing to behold and possibly quite useful. I vill need to think, someone who could help vith IDing de gem......hmmmmmm.
"This gem, it holds the key to imprisoning this demon?" Hmmmm. 1d20 1=19 Intelligence check. 1d20 7=13 spellcraft.I believe that dis could be de capstone for his imprisonment. Ve could trap him vith this if we can figure out how to use it.
"You will NOT harm her, demon! Alak mojady sleaknirim!" Grease on the dagger, DC16 reflex or he drops it.
De enchantment properties vould be a bind spell o' some sort. De divination auras it is radiating vould presumably be some way to detect or see de demon, perhaps by peering through de gems facets. That would explain vhy Vass wanted it. Conjuration, I'll guess ve'll find out, as I have no clue, even though conjuring is someting of a specialty of mine. From de burnt remains of the book ve found several drawings of demons that are presumably renderings of Vass or someting like him. If somevone is going to bind dis demon again they'll need a picture, I think.
Hey, The Eye of Aroden! It may be the key to capturing our body-snatching demon!
Aref, this is from a spoiler when you first sat down in Draka's:** spoiler omitted **
Draka, I apologize for dis disturbance and all we have brought to your house. It seems we awoke some demon in de desert and he has followed even when we thought him gone. He takes the body of the weak-willed and uses them as a noble uses a concubine and them then discards it when done, used and worthless. Or dead. I must figure out how to destroy it permanently. He seemed to want something from my pack. Probably de book. I vish to have some time to study it's mysteries. Pulsifer, I vould velcome your help in examining dis book.
Probably gonna refrain from further actions except to head towards Akilara by the safest means to help escort her lovely form to safety. When Aref's turn comes up..... "Sons of de B!@%~!!! You vould dare to steal from me! Manifesit sect'segman!" Aref casts summon monster 1 on the defensive 1d20=20 +7 or 8 so I made it well. creating a celestial fire beetle to attack the man.It will bite and attempt to smite him on it's first attack1d20 3=9, 2d4 4=10probably a miss. Please place the beetle where it fits on my turn.
Probably gonna refrain from further actions except to head towards Akilara by the safest means to help escort her lovely form to safety.
No Problem. Aref digs reaches for something in his beltpouch and throws it at RED2. 1d20 3=14 +1 bard, +1 that I missed in my stats=16-2 for range=14 ranged touch. Tanglefoot Bag- Spoiler: Tanglefoot Bag: When you throw a tanglefoot bag at a creature (as a ranged touch attack with a range increment of 10 feet), the bag comes apart and the goo bursts out, entangling the target and then becoming tough and resilient upon exposure to air. An entangled creature takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls and a –4 penalty to Dexterity and must make a DC 15 Reflex save or be glued to the floor, unable to move. Even on a successful save, it can move only at half speed. Huge or larger creatures are unaffected by a tanglefoot bag. A flying creature is not stuck to the floor, but it must make a DC 15 Reflex save or be unable to fly (assuming it uses its wings to fly) and fall to the ground. A tanglefoot bag does not function underwater.
A creature that is glued to the floor (or unable to fly) can break free by making a DC 17 Strength check or by dealing 15 points of damage to the goo with a slashing weapon. A creature trying to scrape goo off itself, or another creature assisting, does not need to make an attack roll; hitting the goo is automatic, after which the creature that hit makes a damage roll to see how much of the goo was scraped off. Once free, the creature can move (including flying) at half speed. A character capable of spellcasting who is bound by the goo must make a DC 15 Concentration check to cast a spell. The goo becomes brittle and fragile after 2d4 rounds, cracking apart and losing its effectiveness. An application of universal solvent to a stuck creature dissolves the alchemical goo immediately.
"Draka! Dis is not my fault! I know dese men not a bit! Alak mojady sleaknirim!" Aref points at the greatsword wielding man's weapon while intoning that last part [ooc]Grease on the weapon, DC16 reflex or he drops the weapon. "Surely I cannot be held accountable for dese rabble! Akilara, run my love!"
"Ahhh, Sweet Akilara, why do you taunt me so? In all my travels I have never seen a desert blossom shed beauty as you do. I vould be made whole if you vere to be mine, with your beauty that vould make a god give up the heavens. Someday, my dear, you will know my worth and honor me vith your hand."
1d20 6=9 Perception. Aref can't seem to take his eyes off of the woman's gyrations.
"Aref, do you baths here?" I vill take you to a bathhouse on the morrow. Safe rest is more important right now. Perhaps Draka can spare a jug of water and some rags to help wipe away some of the journey? Draka?
HA-HA!!! Now you see de true wisdom of my people! Also you may have noticed......desert. Not forest. There is not a great abundance of materials for furniture unless you vould like to be sitting in a sandstone settee. I see that Akilara is still as vonderful of a dancer as ever! I alvays wondered why she stayed in dis place, Draka, when her beauty would not be out of place in de palaces of de city proper. Someday, dear flower, you vill see me for what I truly am and ve will be wed. That I promise.
Aref will spend a few gold on food and drinks. "Draka! You ol' Dunestalker you! You are a vide as ever, my friend! I have a good group of people vith me, but our travels were hard and a safe night vould be most velcome. There is only one person I thought of vhen I thought to their safety.....Draka the Wide!"
"Leviternlo rot'h Niplern! Do not vorry, friend. You shall not wear de sight and smell of your journey any longer." Aref concentrates on Ryor for a few moments, directing his prestidigitation spell to clean the man, then smiles slightly as he make him smell heavily of lilac and hyacinth.
After they pass Aref steps out and, looking at the quickly diminishing cloud from the riders, speaks to his companions. "The man in the lead is a Judge, or Qadi, and de soldiers are the Shurta, or de lawkeepers. Such units are regularly dispatched for the bringing of peace and law in Katheer, but less frequently travel beyond the valls. Out here law is usually dealt out by the Spah, the armies of Qadira.
Ve should hide, dem riders be lookin' fer sometin and I don't want to be it. If dey pass quickly we can make de outskirts of town by the night's arrival.
"Everyone alright?""I'm alright, friend. We should follow the efreet's masters." I agree. Anyone enslaving a creature such as dat is one to be contenting with. Let us go.
