LOST TRAILS OOC

[ewancummins]

Tonio stands firm,. holding up the flameless torch for the heroes.

[ewancummins]

Dragon drops darkness on the light source, dimming it and adding penalties to spot and hit the dragon.


IC post coming in a bit. Feel free to post OOC actions now.

This is all taking place in a large dark, flooded cavernlike lair, totally underwater.

Hide check for the dragon

[ewancummins]

Good, good.



Errata- actually it will counter/dispel the light spell. Checked description, Update coming.

You are now in pitch black, underwater.

But you may act freely, with whatever penalties you naturally incur., Check your Will saves for those dragonfear rolls I made a bit ago.

Need map and Distances so I can make decisions on stuff . Since the Darkness spell also help with giving Concealment to those in it .

[ewancummins]

By my count, dragonfear hit all the PCs.

You guys are too high level to be spooked into panicked flight, but you do suffer shaken penalties

Shaken
A shaken character takes a -2 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks.
Shaken is a less severe state of fear than frightened or panicked.

Wolfglide, I see you are on. If you want to have Klokulf coming down the pipe, so to speak, feel free to make a swim roll and join the fun/murder fest.

[Lord Skybolt]

If we blinded because of "Darkness" spell then we should just swim back out the hole since the hole was not that big so I assume the dragon can't just swim past us .

[Wolfglide of the Fraternity]

Right before we engage the dragon, Klokulf will cast bless on everyone, remove fear on Tonio (if Sir Clive allows it), then shield of faith, body blades, and disguise self on himself. The disguise self is to hide the body blades, that way the dragon might choke itself on Klokulf if it tries to eat him. Klokulf will make sure to warn others (especially Alwina) not to touch him for at least 5 minutes after the battle begins, even though they can't see the blades.

These have been accounted for, I take it?

Swim check (+0):
0

Klokulf will cast light on whatever was enchanted the first time, and if that gets doused as well, he will cast dancing lights. After that, he is out of options.

[ewancummins]

Cool, he gets there at the top of next round.

For now, what are the PCs in darkness doing?

[ewancummins]

And yes, those spells are accounted for. Make sure to apply bless, guys.
If you are comfortable with the BLESSSING OF BANE.
Muwhahahahahaha!

[Lord Skybolt]

Bless is not a good or Evil at all . Just helpful in general . It will help offset the attack penalty though to those that get it . My player had a crap roll for his dragon fear check .

[ewancummins]

correct, the spell works regardless.

The question of whether some PCs want to accept it is a roleplay question, not mechanical.

[ewancummins]

Effectively blinded for the round, I'm assuming that Katrin won't be attacking.

Ditto Sir Clive and Tonio.


Is Alain trying anything the round BEFORE backup arrives?
