Maeglin Starcaller's page

Maeglin, his body complaining with every step he took, shuffled over. He was looking forward to reuniting with his companions. His research, and subsequent gain in power and knowledge, had been most satisfactory.

Guys just ping me when it'll be appropriate for me to post.

Sounds good. He'll have been drunk in the city (he has a problem).

In my experience more magical support is never a bad thing...
Also, would anyone care to post a brief recap? I've missed quite a lot...

...Bueller?

Heeeey gang.
How's tricks?

Sorry I ghosted there, as GM Fez indicated I had some serious personal health issues. Rhymes with "Dancer" but waaaaaaay more likely to kill you!

Good news is it was caught early and I'm in remission and ready to get mah game back on!

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Maeglin stops when Nilelane does, but sees nothing amiss.

"I'll keep to the trees, I suppose!"

Maeglin couldn't help a grin. Nilelane was...refreshing. She made him remember his youth.
"Because it will probably be the opposite of safe?"

"I'd hoped we'd be able to use a bit more finesse for this, but it seems time is of the essence!"

Maeglin sighs and checks his gear, making sure he's ready to move out.

Maeglin kept quiet. He was not socially adept, and so did not wish to disturb his friends careful work.

I'm for sleep then hideout. It'll let me change my spell loadout too

"I think we've gotten all we can from him. Let's try to get him back to our allies, and then strike out for their hideout."

Yeah that's the sense I'm getting! Hellknight isn't too bad a PrC as those go either

Knowledge Geography: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26
Maeglin made note of this. If that was what the man thought, perhaps their base was somewhere along the river.

Maeglin's mouth ticked slightly, and he was clearly fighting to keep amusement off of his face and out of his voice.
"Nilelane, you should at least by a gentlemen a drink before addressing his odd curvature. That's rather personal, don't you think?"

Trying not to laugh, Maeglin nodded towards their prisoners.
"I'm not skilled in the art of interrogation, so I suggest one of you engage in that, my friends."

Good reroll then!

Maeglin grinned at Nilelane.
"Here goes nothing!"
Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
If we have a hero point, then I will spend one to reroll;
Reroll: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Brilliant

[ooc] i'm not home at the moment, is this just a ranged attack roll?[/dice]

Maeglin grinned.
"Don't worry, neither do I! At least we have some acid...that was lucky! Nilelane, would you care to take aim with me? We've done quite well so far, after all!"

Maeglin hefted the vial of acid, and nodded. Then he grinned.
"You know, Corrin, for the last several minutes you've spoken without so much as a hitch! You're doing great!"

Maeglin tsked, irritated.
"My spells will be nearly useless against them. If we have anything that can damage an area, that would be good."

Knowledge Local: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27
Knowledge Nature: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27
"Indeed it seems like a spider swarm to the south. The south leads out to the forest. I'm also recalling something else...

Maeglin struggled down, far less graceful than his fellows.

"Down to the sewers, I suppose!"

Maeglin's face darkened. He indicated the prisoner.
"Then I am suddenly far less inclined to treat this person charitably."

"That's a good idea, Callaniel, but I think we could use Nilelane's idea as well. Send word, and let's head underneath the city and walk the halls of our fathers while we wrest truth. It seems a fitting first step on our journey."

"I wouldn't turn down a potion but I'm not much with weapons these days. I think it far more important that we take this person and find out what we can."

Maeglin looks over at Nilelane.
"Frankly I'm as surprised as you are!
BTW, Daggerbolt Death Machine is now the name of my new metal band

Maeglin glances at his crossbow, wondering if it's a magic item and he just never noticed.

Crit threats for DAYS!
Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7

Crossbow: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 4

Super limited time today. I will ready an action to attack with Nilelane

/agree

Loving the concentrated fire so far. Making me think about taking Point Blank Shot and going more with a ranged build :p

Crossbow: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 8
Second verse, same as the first! Maeglin will reload his crossbow, then ready an action to use Concentrated Fire with Nilelane. And I agree. This feat is both dope, and fresh. It might even be too legit to quit

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
I will in fact use Concentrated Fire with Nilelane.
Crossbow: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19
Damage: 2d8 ⇒ (5, 5) = 10

Maeglin himself finds the right kind of building and enters into it. He posts up at the window just above Anyborthelos, then checks his crossbow and component pouch to make sure both are ready.

That was what I assumed

Maeglin smirked at the joke.
"Seems as good a plan as any!"

"I am in agreement. The longer we stay in the city, the greater the chance we will be found out. Best to get this done quickly, I think!"

"We have yet to make any plans regarding accommodations, and would be quite grateful for your assistance in this regard! Once we've made ourselves comfortable, perhaps there is a common room where we could gather to discuss our plans?"

Knowledge Nature: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17
Maeglin recalls what he's read of Forlarrens.

Wow. Now that's a show I haven't thought of in years!

"True. I do still think we should try to have any violence occur in an area of our choosing if at all possible."

Maeglin paused, considering.
"Is there any evidence of exsanguination?"

Maeglin chewed his lip, considering.
"An alley would be best. Ideally there would be two story buildings forming either side, with windows on the second floor. If there are windows on the first floor we can barricade them. We could coat the far side of the ally with oil, and set it ablaze, cutting off their escape. Our fighters could exit out the windows behind the criminals and block the entrance they came through. Myself and any other ranged combatants could stay on the second story and shoot arrows or cast spells. It shouldn't be too difficult to take down the group and stabilize one afterwards. Is there an area like that, my lord? And what do the rest of you think?"

"Then perhaps we should scout the area, and allow ourselves to be 'ambushed'. Perhaps we could lay a trap of our own?"
