Should we get closer?

I have a Dimension Door prepped, but it won't get us far.
Loarin is a Cleric of Sarenrae (awesome!) 5/Fighter 5. He is played by the GM, and he's not our level, but he can channel healing like a boss, for his level. I think we'll need him. We can tell him what spells to prepare, if Sarenrae (or the GM) doesn't object. He's a GMPC. I can see your characters in your profiles, but I'm more interested in what you see your characters doing. What does your combination of classes make you good at? What can you do once we go through this portal? It's hard to say when you're 2 classes at once, with crazy good stats. I'll start. Flouncy is an arcane trickster on steroids. He gets all the goodies of a 7th level unchained rogue, and is also a 7th level evoker. He is our most skilled party member by a good margin. He's also built to scout. Not that far ahead, but enough to make it work in most terrains. x
Flouncy can cast Detect Magic all day as a SLA. That means that you don't have to. You can use a slot for a different cantrip/orison.
Does this portal lead to the Void, the Shadow plane, or somewhere else?
I think the enemy fled. They'll come back harder later, but not for a day or 2. We're just looking at a lot of death, but if we can get 8 hours of rest and prep, we can go through the portal with 2 1st level spells. From 2 of you, not Flouncy. Flouncy plans to load up on offensive evocation blasts and not much else. Renia can cast all the Hastes we need. Let's take a moment to look at what we can do, and cover our bases. Assuming we can get through the night, we can make a plan based on what we can realistically do.
We've got Roquar, Renia, Flouncy and Loarin. Losing Beorn sucks, but we're all still powerful gestalt characters. We can do this. We just need to rest and top up.
We don't know what we'll meet on the other side, but it won't be friendly. I think we can activate it later with a couple of low-power spells. I'd like to have a full quiver when we do, so to speak.
Yeah. at 7th level, you run out pretty quickly. We'll need a recharge to carry on.
I still want to play. This encounter got a little out of sorts, but it's nothing we can't fix. It's been a fun game overall.
Flouncy checks it out.
Maybe we should just let them go and have a look around? Flouncy's got nothing that will make a real dent. I suppose Beorn could fly around and take potshots, but it looks like we just don't have the juice to finish it if they're getting away that fast. Maybe I'm wrong, but I got nothing. If anyone else has an idea, I'm all ears. I want to keep playing for sure.
Flouncy keeps going.
Flouncy keeps moving while the haste is in effect.
Flouncy casts Haste before anyone's too far away, then flies toward the action.
Still invisible, and within range, Flouncy casts Message. I'm still here. Yes, let's approach. I'll let you know when and with whom I can flank.
Sorry, guys. Been running around. I'll catch up.
Flouncy will assist Beorn, and try to heal him again.
He fails again, and stands around trying to look tough.
Flouncy tries to determine if the robed guys teleported or went to a different plane. Did they cast spells to do it?
Flouncy flies to Beorn and uses his wand to try to heal him a bit.
Failing that, he hands him the wand to use himself.
Damn. Beorn's down. Flouncy sees this.
He's going to change his plan and keep Beorn in the fight. He's not charging anywhere but to Beorn. He has a wand of CLW, which might help.
Flouncy gets in position to charge. He's got no one to flank with atm.
The guy drank a potion and went invisible? In that case, Flouncy moves upward to avoid getting AoO'd and casts See Invisibility.
Flouncy went invisible.
Flouncy did his thing rounds 5-8. Apparently the guy can see him, and went invisible himself the next round.
What round is it now? There were a few rounds where we were just getting there.
Flouncy cast GI and Fly before he left Beorn.
Flouncy takes 8 dmg (evasion). He flies invisibly towards the caster Beorn shot, and attacks.
Round 5 Flouncy finds himself low on ammo.
Round 6 He casts Fly on himself.
Once in range, Flouncy uses his ring to cast Fireball (acid) on the first wagon in the line, hoping to dissolve the rails and affect as many undead as he can.
(DC 22 for 1/2)
Hand me some of those acid flasks, big guy.
I don't know, but I'm pretty sure these portals can't stay open forever. Let's slow up the line first, then go after the overseers.
Flouncy can cast Fly on it. He has one more Fly spell and a D. Door for later.
I have 2 fly spells and a Dimension Door prepared, too. We can get everyone there at once.
Flouncy also tries to guess what is up.
