Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Life is kicking my ass right now, can someone play me as a ranged combatant, tossing fire as needed. Hopefully I can get a reprieve in a week or so.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Who is gonna/wants to handle treasure division and resale?

Yea! Searing spell! Let the Fires of Riese purify the wicked! I can burn the unburnable!

Holding off on buying stuff until treasure is divided, may pick up a cloak of resistance +2 and some 3-4 level scrolls.

Hey, where's that feat at? Just curious.

Oh, and cool.....I've had to glean past some groovy critchers; I honestly was trying not to have a fire resistant foe to stop your every move....
except when foes had a chance to know about Riese's Regulators and their pyroclastic tactics.....owell guess that doesn't matter either now.

I believe it's in Sandstorm. It's a pretty decent metamagic that raises the spell's slot by +1 for the ability. (Basically I am trying to extend the longevity of my 1st level Firebolts with arcane thesis, searing spell, and fiery spell feats to make a standard 5d6 fire into 5d6+5 that overcomes resistance and still do 1/2 damage to fire immune critters and also use it on certain other fire spells and raise up their slots) I like it because I can now have fireballs that are '11's. Most mages fireballs can go up to 10 max, but mine go to 11! 11 is higher than 10!

Anyone know of any warrior/cleric prestige classes that are worth a look? I am away from home and splat-less until Thursday. If not I can go on Crystalkeep.

Oso calls on Kelanen to aid the party, now the fight has gone out of the place. This he does until everyone has no wounds.

Use up all my turning attempts as sacred healing. Is there a divine feat that aligns weapons?

Ordained Champion is cool but you may not be close to the necessary Prereqs. ***edit- what Vatty said***

Riese looks at the water fight and begins to cast a summoning, he prances and capers, dances and jigs for all he is worth.

Begins casting summon monster IV to produce a fiendish large shark.

Can we change that to 1d3=2 Small water Elementals(from the summon monster3 list)? Riese is a good guy and not too keen on sullying his rep with fiendish summons.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Ok.
Electric Vengeance on the dude that hit me as an immediate action for 9 damage.
Then Riese steps away and, seeing a beleaguered Elgan getting trounced, he unleashes a Fiery Firebolt at one of his foes for 28 damage dc18 reflex for half.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

2d6=4 Bright worms damage to all in the area of that effect.

Riese steps back 5' and drops a column of flame into the area before him.
(fiery Burst,10' column, trying to get the closest two unseen ones)4d6=11 damage, reflex DC19 for half.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Who's left of the baddies and where are they?


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

21 fort save....

Riese chants "Annelida Pyrrok Olig'chata!!" dropping a Bright Worms at the intersection of K-L, 5-6, its a 20'radius spread and everyone that is my enemy in it takes 2d6=7 fire damage, dc21 reflex for half. This effect lasts for 9 rounds doing 2d6 damage to every baddie in the area every round.

Wormlike tendrils of flame infest the area only striking Riese's enemies....

On the far shore, you see the water of the lagoon splashing in numerous places like crocodiles taking to water.
You see no visible being or beings making this effect.

Does it die? or whatever? If not I have like 4 more of them I can toss.

5d6+5=20 X1.5= 30 damage. Riese casts a Fiery Riese's Firebolt that he empowers with his spellshard at the demon-tree thingy.
"We'll see how that works. Seems like everything we fight anymore has some type of fire resistance though so I'm not holding my breath."

The warrior priest brings out some cheap wine and shares it with whoever. "Beldan, my head isn't into time. But us killing the dolphin killers is a good thing, no?"

I am only pointing out that they are usable by people in our group. I agree that Lord Kelanen has done right and true for us through your ministry and if you still wish to give him proper attrition then I am all for it. Just wanted to point out the properties of the potential sacrifice.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Umm, Oso, I believe that those weapons of Gratt'z Jr. will resize to for human-sized or smallfolk. They may be useful to us as more than a sacrifice.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

I warned you, did I not? It always astounds me when arrogance and an inflated ego are what causes a creature's downfall.....
Need an XP total from someone else....not sure mine is correct.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Scorching Ray (2)-1d20+9=10 ranged touch, 4d6=17 damage, 1d20+9=17 ranged touch, 4d6=12 damage.
1d20+7=21 SR check.

Riese fires off 2 rays of flame at the aspect.
"The other real demon-lords are gonna laugh at you once my crew and I have vanguished this form of yours, idiot."


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Riese casts Enervation on Grattz: ranged touch of 23, 3 levels drained, overcome up to SR 24.

sorry, I'm in Florida visiting family and don't have my links, character info(like verbal spell components) and all that jazz...among other things. Just trying to keep combat flowing.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Riese casts a Fiery Fireball, substituting Sonic energy for the fire--9d6+9=38 Sonic damage.
Will save= 1d20=10+11=21


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

"You shall be back in Azzagrat momentarily, you cheap facsimile of Grattz, wondering why you wasted the time and effort to show what a douche you are. Our epic story will grow and the bards will sing verses of your ineptitude for millenia. Prepare to lose your copy for you face Riese and The Regulators and OUR will shall be done!"
Riese prepares for death.
Put Riese back near the wall and stairway, say at I20.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

"NOBOBY STRIKES AT RIESE THE LIGHTBRINGER!!!"
Riese then 5'steps back to L14 and..."Imbelia furtion de'flar Pyrrok!!"...fires an Empowered Riese's Fiery Firebolt at the skin that attacked him. 5d6+6=26x.5= 39 fire damage, DC18 reflex for half.

"I am now angered and my anger brings death to the wicked!! Hmmm, that's good! I should write that down...."


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

5'step to K14 fire off a lightning bolt at all the Skins if no party members are in the way, or at one of the Skins and the ogre if a party member is in the way. 7d6=31 shock damage, DC 20 reflex for half
"Currintar Ar'c de'lectic!! See how you like being shocked! Maybe you should conduct yourselves in a better manner!"

Riese fires off an empowered fiery firebolt at the lil' dude in C5.
"Imbelia furtion de'flar Pyrrok! Burn you half-pinted freak!!" 5d6+6=31 + 15 (empowered) = 46 fire damage, DC19 reflex for half.
Riese then moves to L15.

Hey Altai, He said "I have guarded your place...as your priests bade me do....please, I implore you to kill me now, o great Yig....my charge is done....oh, bless this holy day!!!" in the tongue of dragons. I know not whether anyone else in our intrepid band speaks the language but I wanted to let you know what he said.

So I actually hit him twice?


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Riese pulls out his wand of magic missile and fires off a trio of bolts (1d4+1=4, 1d4+1=2, 1d4+1=4) at the dude with 2 images left, hoping to destroy his images and slam a shot or so into him.

Ah, f!%+ it!
Riese 5' steps to H16 and begins a spell....
"Annelida Pyrrok Olig'chata!!" Riese chants while making wriggling motions with his fingers and pointing into the room. A knot of writhing, fiery worms appears in the room, hanging in the air as if levitating. They seem to avoid all of Riese's allies.
Bright worms-2d6=5 fire damage DC21 reflex for half in a 20' radius centered on the intersection of H-I, 8-9. They hang around striking all enemies in the area for 9 rounds doing 2d6 damage each round on my turn.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Riese is in I16, readying an action to toss a firebolt at anyone coming in through either of the doors in the northwest corner.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Map link isn't working, can't figure out what's going on!


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

For my spellbook picks- 4th level- enervation, phantasmal killer
3rd- dispel magic, fly
2nd- gust of wind, summon swarm

I could use the Bracers of Armor +2 but it isn't any dire need, they don't stack with Mage Armor or Greater Mage armor so it's mostly worthless to me.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

I need to shop! Something cool for myself....
Are we up to date on liquidating and divvying up treasure? If so what did we get lately?

Damn, I always miss XP somewhere! I'll just round it down to 31,000, I think I made some scrolls and such early on and knocked my total down a little.

"He was a worthy foe if a bit combustible and I'll not have his memory sullied by being turned into a trophy. He will be dropped back into the sea to return to the natural order beneath the waves." which he does after stripping the corpse of gear.

There's a quick little jaunt back to the Viper's Den, and as you pull up to your portage, you see the fat old toad Sencho in his flying chair coming up along side your ship.
"So, Marster Riese,....I take it you won? Good, good....if so you all garnered me a good bit of coin. How went things?"
As always, Goldie is there, staring at Riese; and Hex Chun Chan as well....keeping his own council.

"Of course we won, Sanchot. My men are all top-rate battlers. Why do those two stare at me in such a way? Are they touched in the head? They certainly appear to lack a certain amount of intellect."

I guess we're off to prep, then. Does Riese know See invisible? If not, I'll memorise a couple - one for a bruiser and one for a spellcaster.

Nope, but I will toss in a Listening Lorecall from the PHB2. It should be mildly helpful. Also I have Invis. Sphere. Not really one for utility spells unless making things burn is what I am utilizing. 1st level spells prepped=7 offensive, 0 anything else. 2nd level=2 offensive, 4 self buff/self utility. 3rd level=3 offensive, 1 self buff and 1 party utility. 4th level=3 offensive spells. So I have 15 prepped offensive spells and 6 others, +2 Pearl of Power-1s for more Firebolts, a wand of Magic missile and a combat wand of cold. Not so much use out of combat for Riese.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

"ENOUGH!!!" Riese yells while producing a column of blasting flame in an unoccupied area(Fiery burst) with a mere thought. "Your knowledge of linguistics is all well and good, hominid, but your lack of knowledge in human interactions is pronounced. Sit or I swear that I shall roast your flesh from the surrounding bone before you lay a hand upon my fellow shipmate." Riese then prepares to cast Fire shield upon himself if the Ape doesn't back off.

does anybody still have to level up?

Done. Took the Evoker variant from SRD that allows me to sub-out the energy a spell does once a day to any other energy type. I did that so I could throw a lightning bolt that is actually fire. Fire! Fire! Fire!! Riese is a monster with hit points also, he has consistantly rolled high and with his +3 from con he is at 60hp right now. 4th level spells- Flame shield (surprised?) and Bright Worms from PHB2 (fill an area 20' radius with fiery worms that attack only foes). I forgot about some equipment Riese has also that I should've been using. He has a wand of MM (3 missiles) that he has never used.

Riese sees the group of gobbos rounding the corner, just looking for a fireball, and he happily obliges.
In goblin he yells to them- "Welcome to the party boys! Imbelia Pyrrok de'flar!!!"
8d6=31 fireball, DC19 reflex for half, trying to get as many of the gobbos in the 20'radius as possible.


Male Human Paragon 3 /Evoker 6 (abjuration&enchantment barred) ---37,300XP

Riese eyes up the Hog-o-bugbear thing and says, "Oh I do love the smell of bacon in the air! Imbelia furtion de'flar-imbelia!!!". A bolt of flame and force appears, glowing white hot, and streaks of to hit the creature. 5d6+6=24 from an Arcane Thesised Fiery Riese's Firebolt, DC17 reflex for half. Hey! I got fire in my fire! Two great tastes...

Shaking haulstones and frost out of his beard, Altai jogs up on the forecastle. After determining the best target spot, he quickly casts a spell; a small mote of fire suddenly blooms into a huge fiery gout and envelops the odd band of enemies. I wonder if the cactuary is flammable, he wonders as he prepares a new spell.

Move to B20 before casting Fireball. The bomb detonates 10' above the pier in H18; that hits all visible enemies except the big owl (as well as the invisible wizard in the J/K 19 area). They get to partake in 30 points of fire damage, Reflex 18 for half damage.

None of them drop, but some are pretty hurt. The mul reflexed well...the kongamato batman doesn't look like fire affects him like other folk, but he DID take a pretty heinous blast; his beard is singed off.

The outside of the lower west wall of the building is starting up on fire.

"Fire two! Imbelia Pyrrok de'flar!!" Riese detonates another blast in roughly the same spot, adjusting as necessary to avoid his companions.

Fireball 8d6=35, DC 19 reflex for half.
