Lanterns, go in, try to find a clear shot, and unload your rays of light on the vile creatures!
The red and blue lanterns become paralyzed with fright, but the other two fly in bravely and shoot rays of light at the mummies (one is flying above the other; they're small creatures).

As commanded, the mephit spews forth a disgusting cone of acidic goo all over the unconscious foes, narrowly avoiding hitting the nearby Pathfinders.
”Mephit! I command you to do breathe your gross breath all over those large foes as often as you can when you see them stop fighting until I tell you to stop! And don’t hit any other creatures with it!”
”Mephit, go out there and get ready to spew your slime on those large creatures we are fighting when another of them drops to the ground!” The mephit flies in and lands on the unconscious troll, readying to breathe acid on it and another troll when another goes unconscious.

Nicolas focuses his concentration and says, ”I choose you, ooze mephit!” When the small humanoid creature with thin, leathery wings, small horns, and a mischievous smile appears flying at ceiling height behind the group, Nicolas says, ”Mephit! Put a Stinking Cloud in the middle of that cavern!”

5. Nicholas, you mentioned that Severin would primarily be used for scouting. Let me know how you would use him in a dungeon crawl, whether he is out by default, etc. Should combat trigger while he's out, you would need one round to dismiss him? He’s out by default. I’ll keep Message up with him while he’s scouting. If combat triggers while he’s out I do need to spend my first turn dismissing him so I try to avoid that happening. He’s got +30 stealth, +25 perception,+26 disable device and if there’s a magical trap I’ll UMD a scroll of Aram Zey’s Focus. Also scent, perfect flight, and Bond Senses. Your method you mentioned of keeping the crawl moving sounds great.
A tall, slender, fashionably-dressed human with sandy blond hair and a wayfinder hanging from a chain against his chest turns a corner, spots the rest of the adventurous-looking types, waves, and walks over to meet the group. A sleek mithril chain shirt covers his torso beneath a nice black doublet, a spell component pouch is at his waist, and two black leather bandoliers brimming with wands and scrolls are crisscrossed on his chest. What’s most striking though is the small serpentine creature that swims elegantly through the air around the man’s head almost as if it were a wisp of smoke, a glowing rune on the creature’s forehead matching the one on the man’s. ”Well met, fellow Pathfinders. This is Severin and I’m Nicolas.” Nicolas looks at the skinny man who’s obviously not a Pathfinder, and says, ”Something tells me you’re not our man Horus Ilaktya.”
Severin, his eidolon, is a small, serpentine, non-combat scout with: perfect flight (magical), disable device +26, perception +25, stealth +30, scent, and Gloves of Reconnaissance to see through walls 1/day (RIP pre-errata gloves). |
