I read somewhere that it is 3 months. Unless the DM sets it as inactive. I had one that went inactive in about November and the DM never did anything, it just fell off my list about a month ago.

Yeh - too bad, seemed like it would be interesting. Until I slit all your throats for fun.
Where did everybody go?
Elita lets out a sinister laugh, more of a high pitched squeal: Brother, join us, there is much work to be done.
Initiative: Holding my actions until I know what others are doing. Knowledge(planes):
Knowledge(planes or religion): I turn and look back out of the doorway at the angel. Waiting to see what the other unholys will do.
Good luck with the interview.
Ah, my bad. Drow Noble is RP22 in the Advanced Player's Guide which says they should be considered as +1 level for levels 1-6. Other than that, DMBK will have to decide. Sorry if I confused anyone. After all, I am just a psychotic fallen angel with an anger problem.
The way that we built our characters, you take the Beastiary listed stats, and then convert back to 10/11. So for the Drow Noble it would be Str +2, Dex +6, Con +2, Int +0, Wis +6, Cha +2 --> you would also get all the other special powers, spells, etc. for the Drow Noble. And the Drow Noble is CR 3 in the bestiary because of all the skills/advantages. Thus, you would start with 3d8 hp, and a CR3 character and then be able to add 1d4 more levels of whatever you want to play.
Well, time to find some nice celestials to destroy. With an unholy gleam in my eyes, I zip through the door and scan within. Perception: Fortitude:
Returning from the window. Damn thing is a foot thick. We can get through, but it might be just a difficult as going through this stone.. Elita settles hovering just above the door so that as soon as it is open a crack, she can see within.
Unless I hear a better alternative soon, I am just going through the window. Nobody can see or hit me so what difference does it make. I find the smallest pane of glass that it appears I could fit through, and then smash it with my scimitar if I have not heard from below after about 45 seconds.
You sense that the minute butterfly is more than a little impatient.
I fly up toward the window and begin to search for a part that can be broken with minimal noise and without taking down the whole window. Knowledge(engineering):
Fighting the urge to simply pummel the door until it breaks, Elita flies down and settles on the old man's shoulder. Giving him a smile clearly showing her celestial heritage, a smile that none here had seen previously. All good wizards have familiars. And only good wizards have celestial familiars. After a pause. And if anyone tries anything, I will gut you just as fast as the holy servants within. Disguise:
Glad you said that, once I looked at the demon lords, I realized they were too directed. One was spiders, another fungus - no general things like RAGE and DESTRUCTION!!!
I can jump to a demon lord if you would prefer.
@Astrid - check your stats, I think you should get to add your Wis to your AC - it is a Monk ability. - Not sure whether you have just not finished your character sheet, but +3 to AC is nice. AC Bonus (Ex) When unarmored and unencumbered, the monk adds his Wisdom bonus (if any) to his AC and his CMD. In addition, a monk gains a +1 bonus to AC and CMD at 4th level. This bonus increases by 1 for every four monk levels thereafter, up to a maximum of +5 at 20th level. These bonuses to AC apply even against touch attacks or when the monk is flat-footed. He loses these bonuses when he is immobilized or helpless, when he wears any armor, when he carries a shield, or when he carries a medium or heavy load.
Smiling as the daemon changes his appearance. Should I accompany you my upper planar friend? This is said with a combination of disgust and sarcasm. Or remain hidden above the door and sneak in when it is opened?
Knowledge(engineering): I have never worked with massive doors like these. And there does not appear to be any locking or opening mechanism from this side. Does anyone have another idea? Or should we let the daemon knock and charm those within.
The big folk are too slow. Just take the door down and storm the place. Destruction and bloodshed shall abound. Not waiting for the others, Elita flies to the door and begins to examine if for traps or locks. Perception: DM BK: Can I retcon and purchase some masterwork thieves tools? While I am not a thief, I am about as close as this group is going to get.
I have Truespeech: Truespeech (Su) All azatas can speak with any creature that has a language, as though using a tongues spell (caster level 14th). This ability is always active.
Who needs talking, just rage and kill - destruction and pain are the goal.
Glancing from lower plane denizen to lower plane denizen. The ends justify the means. Let us just go through the door and crush whatever is within. When you are able to catch a glance of the rapidly moving butterfly woman, you think you can almost see flames dancing in her eyes. You also see that a tiny wicked looking scimitar has appeared in her hand.
I can always talk to it in Celestial, until I go destructo rage and eliminate it.
I can speak and understand any language, so infernal is fine. Although I can speak infernal anyway. I definitely like the intro, now we gotta get into the church.
Definitely interesting. Always strange getting to know a whole new group, especially when you are clearly the odd (wo)man out.
After examining the window, Elita flits back down to the rest of the group, still remaining well out of reach of anyone including the translucent cat. Infernal: Well, from the appearance of things, this church is simply carved into the stone, so I doubt that even one as slight as I can get in without going through the door. If you all can hide, I can likely sneak in when someone leaves the church. Or we can attempt to simply enter and face whatever holy forces are within.
Do there appear to be any openings which I could get into to scout forward?
I don't think that the mortal has shown up yet.
Let me see if I can see anything. And if I am spotted, I am much less likely to raise the alarms than some of the rest of you. Stealth:
Elita watches the oddly trusting assemblage from above. Most seeming to speak the tongue of the Infernals. Realizing that most appear to be as confused as she, Elita moves from her hiding spot and hovers out of reach, about 30' above the ground. In what might best be a complete contradiction, you hear a beautiful angelic voice speaking in the guttural tongue of the Infernals - I to am here to eliminate a threat to my queen. One of my former brethren. I assume that your lords have similarly commanded you.
For those who opened their eyes quickly. You saw what looked like an angel from the upper planes. Except the angel was dark with wings looking more like oil spilled in water than a rainbow. However, almost as soon as you saw her, you saw the the tiny creature glance at each of you before flitting her wings and disappearing into the shadows above the church where you are sure she is watching your every move.
Lol - "Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee." That seems to be me.
Hey, we are not all dark. I am colorful - just in that polluted oily sheen way. And I am still trying to figure out how the kitty saw me with my 38 stealth check.
Someone might want to shoot Ssrintal and Abdiel messages. Ssrintal has not posted anything on any alias since like January 16. Abdiel posted this morning and may just not realize that the campaign has started.
Guess I need to add something to my description then, perhaps take a level as a cross blooded sorcerer or something, might be able to get the full line in then. And - WHERE IS EVERYONE, WE HAVE PEOPLE TO KILL!!!!! Elita contemplates simply causing an earthquake to bury this whole area and see how many of these statues do not move.
The choice between remaining in the Infernal realms or returning to the prime material plane is resolved in but moments. Elita relaxes while immediately becoming uncommonly vigilant. As the burning fires if hell disappear and the cool breeze of the material plane touches her wings, Elita immediately begins to scan the area looking for a place to hide. Seeing the dark shadows above the church, she flies up and disappears into the darkness. Stealth: Knowledge(religion): Elita immediately recognizes the symbol's of good and law on the church. For a brief moment, she recalls many years flitting about the material planes, comforting weary travelers and serving powerful mages. But, that moment is over almost before it began. She knows that she now serves darker powers. At least until she is able to overthrow those denizens of the lower planes and take their places. For now though, she has been given an assignment. But, first, she must determine what comprises these other six beings, some clearly from other parts of the lower planes, or at least touched by the darkness as is she.
Kill now, ask questions later.
You web, I stab.
Woohoo - Elita was getting bored and was about to start beating up the cat, the spider and the lizard. Hey, we have a party of familiars - Cacodaemon, Lyrakien, cat, lizard, spider, and Kyton. We should call ourselves the "Un-Familiars"
Tia: Thanks. The scimitar/monk is from the Crusader's Fury feat - thus the reason I have the deity that I have as she is the only Devil with Scimitar. (There are no daemons and the devils with scimitar are pretty pathetic). I also took Dervish Dance which allows dex in place of str for att/damage with a scimitar. And yeh, the monk is a mixture of monk archetypes. I have talked to the DM about this. She is a dedicated religious warrior. With a tiny incredibly fast flying monk, none of the monk and monk archetypes fit right. As martial artist is the only one which allows any alignment and martial arts are defined as any weapon, frequently utilizing swords and similar weapons, together with her infernal mistresses preference for the scimitar, it makes sense. I will check the SR and skills. I think I forgot to drop 2 skill ranks when I switched from level 2/2 to level 3/1. The worse part is that she is tiny, and thus cannot offer flanking support. Although she will probably be transferring a lot of crits to the muscle with 3x and 4x weapons.
Ok all, made some minor changes (ok, maybe not so minor), can someone check this to make sure that I have not screwed up too much. I have switched to cleric 3/monk 1. Hate losing evasion, but I have at least some CMW now. Considering that my deity is Hell bend on destruction, I doubt that I can channel positive energy, sorry. But if anyone has negative energy affiliation, then I can help you.
lol - thanks, lets hope we get lots of monsters with +5 weapons, they really help the old pocketbook.
Yep - need to determine whether as a idealistic cleric - retribution/madness, I can channel positive energy or negative. I have no affiliation with undead, so I am hoping that despite being evil, I can channel positive energy.
Ok all, two questions.
I have DR/5 to both good and magic, how does that work? Does something have to be both magic and good to overcome my damage resistance?
I think that Toppling is best with Magic Missile. Does not do much damage, but you can topple/trip up to 5 people (1/missile) and it uses your CL+Charisma(Wis/Int), so a nice CMB to boot. And it only uses a second level slot.
I can get the protection from evil/good spells.
As I mentioned above, I think that Magic Missile together with a Rod of Toppling Spell is a killer combo. Do 1d4+1 damage to 1-5 enemies and trip them all so that the front line gets free AoO attacks. Since the Rod of Toppling Spell only costs 3k, it is more than worth it in my book. Also, anything that Freedom of Movement averts is good as I could move through the area trapping enemies. Web is one that I know works this way although Tia already has Web.
