It was our duty to make sure as little damage as possible was inflicted on the property of the citizens of this city. I do appreciate the gesture but I am afraid we have to decline." he points at the stack of platinum coins. He notices one is still missing and looks at Mia with one eyebrow raised.

Current AC: 16/12/14 (mage armor) Actually, his recounting is largely opinion neutral - he describes the actions of everybody and quotes them. He does not share any of his opinions about the behaviour above those expressed in previous posts, and those were only his thoughts about the sorcerers, if I am not mistaken. I mentioned his POV only because the party split and in that case he only says how someone left and what was the situation when he/she reappeared. He definitely does not comment on the actions of the team, which is probably good, as believe me, he strongly disagrees with some of them ;-)

I guess with his intelligence, Castor should be able to memorize everything and be able to tell it afterwards - I will not copy/paste here the whole event for obvious resons :-) Spooky now knows everything from Castor's POV as if he was standing next to him. But Castor does not share any opinions (beyond those expressed in his posts)... I do hope you will not hate Castor for this :-)

I am sorry about the movement and Enlarge Person duration, I have overlooked that 1 round. As for Diene having size bonus, I had no idea. The cloak is somewhat uncommon and you do not have description in your profile. Also, it would be great if you (this goes for everybody) could state any long term effect (at least several rounds) in your status line or in yout posts. I usually do not have time to search profiles and it takes me at least 15 minutes to come up and describe my action during combat as it is. And it is above my ability to remember such things for days or weeks in RL.

Mr. Thirus, please keep that thing occupied. Everybody else, keep the perpetrator away from the cage, keep the cage closed and if you happen to find the broken lock, hold it back where it kept the door locked. I can repair it. Let's remain steady but be fast this time." he pauses and then continues quickly. "The perpetrator may be able to use a black ray of negative energy that suppresses the life force of any living creature it strikes, it might also try to claw you, grab you and crush you. Do not try nonlethal attack, it would be useless, try to restrain it physically or mentally. If all else fails, destroy it, just do not harm the mask."

Castor feels his thoughts are muddled by the scream, so he shouts the first thing that comes to his mind. "Let's try to get the construct unbroken. And it is resistant to non-magical weapons!" He moves closer to the action and unleashes hell... Burning Arc: 5d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 2, 6, 3) = 18 Reflex DC 18, G. Mouther
Burning Arc: This spell causes an arc of flame to leap from your fingers, burning a number of enemies nearby. It deals 1d6 points of fire damage per caster level (maximum 10d6). For every additional target the discharge arcs to, reduce the number of damage dice by half (rounded down). Therefore, at 9th level, your burning arc deals 9d6 points of fire damage to the primary target, then 4d6 points of fire damage to a secondary target, then 2d6 points of fire damage to an additional target.
Each target can attempt a Reflex saving throw for half damage. The Reflex DC to halve the damage of the secondary bolts is 2 lower than the DC to halve the damage of the primary bolt. You may choose secondary targets as you like, but they must all be within 15 feet of the primary target, and no target can be struck more than once. You can choose to affect fewer secondary targets than the maximum.
