Still around, checking it with all my other games, waiting to see if it survives.

Zolaire rubs his temple as they arrive, the scroll crumbling to ash, "Ugh. I really need to learn a proper teleport spell. Scroll transportation just feels so unnatural." In response to Nat, he asks the group, "Anyone have any divinations? Otherwise, I guess our best bet is to just search the city." his wings erupt from his shoulders, "I can check a way up the road, then come back shortly to give an extra aerial perspective." he offers.
Zolaire returns shortly, carrying a ball of golden fire in his hand, wounds closing as it touches him, "Anyone else need some healing?" he asks, "Regardless, we should get going- either to track it down, or to get to Caliphas."
Zolaire begins repeating his spells, but is caught off-guard at the horrendous beast's agression, and flees, taking a solid blow but stays standing, running out of the library.
Wow. That is... quite the buffing routine. Interestingly, because of the way my Blood Intensity works (+1 damage per dice rolled on evocation spells), the extra 1d6 of sonic damage that my rays get actually becomes 1d6+1 damage. I think I'll be using Scorching Ray a lot more than I initially thought I would.
Mindful of where he is, Zolaire holds back on massive explosions, instead favoring precise blows against the monster. He steps into line of sight for the creature and fires three rays of golden fire at the beast.
He isn't done, though, and with the practiced ease of one who's done something a thousand times, he immediately follows the three rays with a barrage of red-gold missiles, which unerringly find their way into the creature's hide.
"Very well." Zolaire nods, "How will we know the cultist? Do we have any sort of description for them?" he turns to his fellow adventurers, "I can fly ahead- meet you in the Ardis town square, where we can teleport to Caliphas from?" he asks. Assuming that they others agree to the plan, he heads outside, sprouts massive wings of fire and soars into town, buying a scroll of Teleport and waiting for the others to catch up.
"We could also head into Ardis- I have enough for a scroll of teleport, that would probably be the fastest possible way to get there." Zolaire notes, "I've been to Caliphas a few times, enough to be familiar with the place at least."
Zolaire nods, "Good to meet you, lady Delmont. So, Thrushmoor heading towards Caliphas? That's... what, two day's journey from here? Three, I suppose, if you can't fly. Any idea how long we have before it's too late?" he asks.
Zolaire shrugs, "You have a core of elemental fire. You'd think that could keep you warm."
Zolaire paces back and forth, full of energy as always, dressed in his customary robes, but showing no signs of being affected by the temperature, "Nat, you're always cold." he sighs, "If it's really bothering you, I can give you a temperature ward, but I think you're overreacting." He leans against the wall for a moment, fingers drumming along the spines of a few books, before resuming his pacing.
Personally, I'm curious as to whether the GM has some hook that brings us all together. Zolaire hasn't been around much (and would have never heard of Professor Lorrimor), but could have been roped in quite easily for any sort of undead-slaying adventure. Otherwise, it's possible that they've met, but Zolaire wouldn't be along for the ride, so to speak.
Zolaire has been associated with the Knights of Ozem for some time, so he could have easily been one of your potential recruits, Sour. So long as it's really clear who the bad guys are that you're fighting, he'd serve as a pretty effective hammer against undead, abberations, orcs, and so on. He's not much for subtlety.
I'll get a free Greater Restoration 1/day at level 15, but until then, yeah, I can do a hefty amount of HP healing, but not a ton for status effects.
Okay, great.
