The hastened angel quickly covers the distance. Before they move it used its aid ability. Sitting on the sholder Quake waits for his turn in battle when he is brought into reach.

Nizell moves in next to Carmine also looking over the object with interest. "I agree, but I would also like to see what it's worth to him. Even hear from him why he thinks we are better off working with him rather than just taking what we can. If we assume it's as powerfully as any we have seen. Let's see what he will offer.348-352 Sussex Street, Sydney, NSW 2000 GP Senses: Darkvision 60ft, Telepathy 100ft Spot/Listen +13 Level 2: HP: 22/22 Speed 40ft Init:3 AC: 21, Touch: 13, Flat-footed: 18 Saves: Fort +7, Ref +6, Will +3 (+1 vs spells) Spells:[5x0, 1x1] No Light, Ghost Sound, Open/Close, Mending, Critical Strike, Cure light W Special: Fast Healing 1, Sneak attack +1d6, Improved Grab (Ex), Detect Magic 1/d, Steel Spells (0,1)

To help things out here how about I have the last word!! When we have examined the staff can I strongly suggest we go back and talk to the Lich. Metagaming here I would like to get a few more hooks and concepts throw in before we spend all of 2024 exploring a dungeon. Really the DM put us in front of a highly intelligent being with history and knowledge of a world, that there is a potential to use and we can't be bothered to take a few steps back and negotiate with? You may actually be in range of his telepathy! Talking to the Lich and bartering is not giving him the staff. But he may know this complex, may know other ways to return to the city etc. " We are really torn about returning this to you, it may well be priceless and we are in need of this sort cash so please explain why we should return it to you. A soul in the hand...." "Convince us that the better option is not returning to the humans" " To go further in this complex we need to return regularly to the city to eat mortals ...how can we do this efficiently whilst keeping the complex hidden..something about the portal blocked mortals? Is this the alien magic that imprisoned you? ????? ?????

, To be clear Quake is now on the sholder of the Archon next to Sunna. It's sort of a mount I guess? Quake is severly injured but if the Archeon can aid and he uses a cure ability then he will enter the fight. If Sunna moves into enguage and the Archon also follows then best possition te Archon so Quake has access to the shadows square (he will then get a full round action?) Note: with the +2deflection and +2 from cover and small size +2 he has a lot better AC vs them now, just needs a few HP to play with GP

I think we should discuss "meta"plans in the OOC so that the game thread progresses otherwise we slow down too much. I am more than happy to do these conversations as I personally like a big picture frameword to hang the game on. From my previous post: From a big picture perspective the Lich may well have a lot of knoledge that would equate to power or advantage back in Ebberon. If he is a super inteligent Lich King who almost defeated an invading uber race then we either take what we can now while he is weak or align with him and Carve up the world. As far as Nizell is concerned he could can have all the goblinoids and undead he likes if we get the sweet tasting mortals. Using the Cult members that would allign with us and killing the rest would make sence. Also this current complex ...it would seem like a large area that we could use as a home base. We should find out where it is on the world? Given we are about the interact with the Lich is offer for power can be judjed once we hear it.

Nizell joins Carmine at the sceptor.. "Let's take this back to the king and see what he is going to offer us for it? She also touches it, hoping to sense it's power. noting Carmine also already picked up the sceptor I think by his post. If nothing happens for them both then she will offer to grab it and take it back to the king OOC I like your posts but Nizell is a lady of action. Regarding plans I posted in the ooc thread my thoughts...I like the idea of aligning with the king and jointly taking over the world....should things align that way. Just need to find human food.

Ok land me on his shoulder. It's nice and close for an aid!

QUAKE - Tiny Cat with wings two small horns and a needle tiped tail HP: 26 / 103 AC 39 Touch 23 FF 35 | Initiative 1 | DR 5/Evil SR 13 Speed [50][50f ], darkvision 60 Space 5 ft.; Reach 5ft. [+20/+15 /+18/+18/+18/+18] Gore 1d3 +10 , Tail 1d2 +7 ,Claws: 1d2+7, Bite 1d3+7, --- The massive lion is slashed open buy a three vicious attacks from an invisible enemy. Clearly gravely wounded Quake moves seeming to pop out of existence. The recent blood and other gore falling like a bucket of filth to the ground below. The small cat left in his absence fly’s off at full speed hoping to regroup outside the pursuing shadows range if not attention. "Mistress Sabrael, invisible shadows are going to decend on us shortly, I barley got away. I have nothing to weaken them. You summons will be of great help , I am happy to see them, well done!" OOC He will travel 90 feet..ish to be outside of a charge/pounce by the shadow. I am not sure of the rules on a tiny animal. If he lands on the sholder of a summoned angel does it afford any protection? If it does and the aura also improves AC then he may do that instead if it is signifigant otherwise the plan as writen heal

OK ande another question, is there a light spell active? OH and that 42 damage is correct?

I am thining to fly off tuning into a tiny animal/bird this action . It could be a retreat action I guess...but it will be good to know for the future

see above also if I use shifters rush to free action into a small creature thus going from 10x10 to 5x5 do I avoid the Aoo from the shadow?

Just to confirm the extra damage is 14 shadows, pounce attack 16 critical, 6 and 6 = 42....eeeek Sorry guys but no choice but to bring these shadows to you all!

I am back Did I get an AOO on the shadow...?

Please NPC nizell she will thump on.

I am away until next Sat. No phone allowed.
