GM PC: Xerissa Auraraun's page

Karek wouldn't mind acid resistance, if people think it's a good idea. Spend your resources as you will. :)

Karek was the first to call it, so he gets the remaining resist energy. Be it ever so OOC, as I imagine between the superstitious barbarian power and Karek's mistrust of spellcasters, he probably wouldn't be first in line.

"As the wizard says, let's fortify that front-line," says Xerissa with cheer to the reluctant dwarf. Karek though suspects she'll accept any excuse to try out her bizarre substances.

The alchemist unfolds a miniature work table and combines a collection of gels and powders, creating a transparent goop in a dish. She then lathers a thin coating over Karek's armor. She finishes it off by whispering an incantation, to bring her alien concoction to life. When she's done there's an eldritch flash and the substance disappears.

"There we go! All set. Dip your toe in one of those acidic pools if you dare and give it a test!"

Xerissa laughs out loud at the Shattershield's inuendo. She's just not entirely sure if the joke was intentional or not.

She answers Moonpate's prudent inquiry:

"God thought. I can prepare a compound that will fortify against acid. It would be enough to protect one other person."

"Shall I prepare it on one of the brave men in front?" (Karek or Gandel?)

OOC: She will contribute a casting of resist energy as well, her caster level is also high enough to confer Resist Acid 20.

Xerissa steps closer, remaining ten feet away from the acid pools, but close enough so she can examine them in the light given off by the phylactery on Donkor’s forehead.

“I think the acid is biological – from nature – like from the stomach contents of some great beast. See how it interacts with the stone?”

“While I wouldn’t touch it by any means, it’s no longer fresh. It looks like it was probably exposed to the air in here several hours ago, maybe even yesterday.”

OOC: An alchemist ought to know something about acid. I’ll call that a Knowledge (nature) check.
