The Situation: A Barbarian, a Revised Ranger, a Sorcerer, a Warlock (me), and a Bard, all around 10th level, are being attacked nightly by long-range magic. "It would take us weeks or possibly months to physically reach the target" range. We'd have to go across most of the known continent to reach our attacker.
From what we've seen, the attacker can cast three spells on us per night (we don't know exactly how, but suspect some kind of advanced scry and fry). The attacker's powers include Dispel Magic, which he keeps using to get rid of my Tiny Hut - apparently he can't teleport magic past it, so he has to get rid of it first. The offensive spells have so far been limited to acid attacks, including some area-of-effect ones capable of hitting the whole group if we don't spread out. They haven't really done enough damage to kill us, but they're very annoying. The Sorcerer and the Warlock seem to be the main targets.
We do not know exactly how we're being targeted - there are no physical items always being held by the target of our spells.
We are currently in a town supporting a major military encampment. They probably have supplies and casters, and I have very good Persuasion, but it's uncertain how much they'll be willing to give us. Our party has *some* gold we could buy crafting stuff with.
To my knowledge, nobody in our group can cast Nondetection, and it will probably be awhile before we level up.
So...... any suggestions?
Update: The guy targeting us can apparently suppress magical items with some sort of supercharged Dispel Magic, and we're now out a Bag of Holding (in addition to getting blasted by acid regularly). We did get one Amulet of Proof Against Detection and Location (I think it's called - a Nondetection effect), but that isn't enough to really protect the group.
Seriously, any ideas? I'm basically stumped aside from hoping Dream works, and I could really use some advice. XD;
This sounds like a custom-designed set of effects, where you need to acquire information about possible capabilities of those effects in game.
Try getting some sort of see invisibility effect. Scrying usually creates an invisible sensor - you might learn from the sensor itself, or at least confirm it's scrying or maybe the attacker is really an ethereal being.
If it is a scrying, you could try to hide inside rope trick effect (you might need a scroll or other item that would cast it if none of you is capable of learning that spell).
