How deep is the cave? Is there any prospect of wading in or is it swimming depth?

You can wade to it but to get inside you have to go underwater, fully submerged.
How deep, you cannot tell from here. Not without a light actually placed underwater, a pike to probe it with, something like that.

Oh, and Happy Easter to all.


(Not yet for the Greeks, I know, so Happy Easter in advance if I forget to mention it. )

Technically, we could stretch out a length of my rope of stone and solidify it into a long pole, but it might not be intended to support its own weight in that manner.

I am still checking in frequently, but I am going to be relatively busy over the next few weeks. As such, I will probably be pretty quiet.

Proposal: Operation Defoulment

Step 1: Katrin tempts the dragon to attack by wandering across the mouth of its lair as if stumbling over it during a scouting mission. It attacks.

Step 2: The dragon gets tentacled (I assume this spell is Black tentacles, which indeed is not affected by Spell Resistance). the dragon is attacked and impeded!

Step 3: The dragon is attacked by the group. Mired in the tentacles and with the group prepared for its attack, it is at a crucial disadvantage compared to last time, and we kicked its butt then.

Step 4: Exciting things happen.

Step 5: Profit!

It's been a long scene in real time, so I have advanced somewhat.
The rest period allows casters to rejigger their spells.
Anyone not at full can be assumed to have been healed to full hit points by the time playtime slides back into 'normal speed' in that most recent post.

You arrived in the morning. It is now late afternoon.

If anyone had utility , divination, or other spells he meant to cast before a rest period, let me know.

At noon, Klokulf could prepare new spells. So I need to know his new list, if spell selection changes after he assesses the situation with the lake and submerged passage.

If the party wants to confront the creature underwater, then Klokulf will replace downdraft with water breathing. Everything else will remain the same, as will his intended tactics. He would rather not have to seek the beast out beneath the surface.

Well as far as I know Hail of Stone will not be affected by the water in the least and is an Auto hit/Auto Damage/No SR check) spell but it just takes time to cast(1 Round/but no save versus its damage)
Also will not affect the Evards in any way so would be good way to make sure it takes damage every round of combat . Alain just need to know where to put the spell down for it to hit the Dragon .

That's one area where Kat and Klokulf are on exactly the same page. My efforts to lure it out seem unavailing so far though. Alternative suggestions welcome!

Sorry for being absent for weeks. I am well. I got a bit lost as other things (skype meetings, no breaks for weekend or holidays) and quarantine made each day exactly like the previous one.

Am I to assume the game is on hiatus?

I'm just waiting for players to post actions.


I suppose the game is on hiatus until players make some choices: enter the flooded dungeon/lair with water breathing and a light spell, try to set the naf on fire, camp out for what could be days, just leave the swamp, etc.
