So... We're stuck in the middle of a wall fo fire and behind that is a big hard door, which is the only way out?

Khalil has resist energy (fire) as a spell, which negates 10 hp of damage, however I have a question: the spell description states that the value of resistance granted increases to 20 hp at 7th level. OK so does that mean character level? If thats all good then he can do whatever fire-related actiosn need to be done with oinly minimal damage.

Only other thought I have is that there is a drill, crowbars, portable ram and other heavy duty equipment in the expedition cache. Thatd get the door open from the outside say if Kuzan takes Ishaq and Tomas out with him.

I also had an idea ... Let's see how it works out. ^^; It may very well be my worst one yet on this expedition.

I was considering that, too, actually. Hopefully if it doesn't work, we'll get a window to try something like what Khalil suggested.

The spell description refers to Caster Level, which as I recall is NOT full level for Rangers and Paladins. It's either half or level-3, forget which exactly, but either way its only 10 damage resistance.

Ooh, good call, Rock and Kaitou. I wonder if he could get people out of the keep, too, if his being confined to the property includes the grounds past the gate.

Well, if Ishmael fails to save the day for us, there's the possibility of a teleport. If it comes down to that, who do I take? I can only take 3 others with me.

If that fails, then what?

We could send Ishaq through the wall with backup healing to bust the door down for us? Then, port the fragile folks out if we can -- if not, just toss them over or something? I suppose we'll have to think really creatively to get through this. If we can get through it at all.

Note to self: get Teleport spell once eligible. *sigh* In any case, the people carrying the book and the dagger need to be evacuated first.

And if neither Ishmael nor the spell can help us ... We still have Water Breathing for a few hours, right? Maybe there's an underground tunnel which leads elsewhere? ^^; [/longshot]

As I understood it, we're surrounded by fire? Or is just the door blocked?

I just realized ... Lia still has two Magic Missiles ready to go. Throw in a False Life and some attack spells from the rest of you, and we might all be able to just bull through after blasting the door to rubble!

Seems like our best shot since the magic missiles aren't affected by hardness.

It's half, according to the SRD.

Sorry was away all day. I did roll an attack on the door but Lia already bashed it in. If not it's 66 points of damage. If ishaq needs to go through and dmg the door, then Kaitu, he'll need healing and acept your offer.

Anyone that needs healing, if you can, give me an estimate of what you need or something. Sorry, I should've mentioned sooner >< But Kuzan's Heal check is +19 so he'll have no problems telling how many hp you need.

Regarding the Bag of Holding.... I'd really rather you didn't.

There are simply far too many DM-ly horror stories of Bag of Holding abuses that I'm a little leery of using the item for anything beyond extra carrying space.
