The Eye of Anubis: OOC Thread

The casks are not near the flame strike If they were, I wouldn't have blasted.

If I am told it's impossible to flame strike without blowing us sky high, then I'll amend my action.

As with Khalil's little flame-ing, it's possible to light the ship on fire, in which case the fire may spread over to the casks, in a few rounds. You'd have plenty of warning if/when it did.

[Kaitou Kage]

If that happens, it happens Like you said, we'll have plenty of warning to get out if we have to. Plus, Flame Strike doesn't have the "this definitely sets things on fire" clause that fireball has so I'm not as worried.

As long as the flame strike isn't immediately setting off the gunpowder it's no big deal.

Also, to clear up any questions: Ianthe and Dieter (and preferably Otto) should move so that Kuzan is somehow between them and the Vampires, but also stay within 10 feet (so they gain the benefits of his magic circle)

Preferably, they will stay in arm's reach, but teleport spells only require that all creatures going remain in contact with each otehr somehow. So as long as everyone's adjacent to everyone else, it will work out fine.

On the theme of "Rock can't make up his mind", I've edited my post for the second time. *sigh* Anyone interested, please have a look.

Otto, if you could be a dear, shoot BK1 if he's still alive. I think you can kill him if my Flame Strike didn't.

You should haveve stuck with the fireball. You are the bigger threat. Had you went with the fireball, I could've used Flame strike to more beneficial effect instead of having a single target spell be the more tactically viable option.

Well, very shortly Lia will no longer be in a position to regret any of her decisions.

On a related note, I am going out to take the GRE exam tomorrow, which of course doesn't take place in my college town of 40,000 students, but an hour's bus-ride away. So I'm going to be away for much of the day.

Plus, in the evening, there is a Presidential debate, and I'm a politics junkie. Anyone on AIM at that time can be treated to a running commentary of a left-wing Massachusetts hippie.

All of which is leading up to the fact that tomorrow's post will probably be quite late, and there is a chance it might not come till Wednesday, depending on how tired I am tomorrow.

I could use my last Fireball after I've patched myself up a bit with a cure potion, but by that time you'll probably have killed the last vampire already.

On another note, it looks like one more round of Charles chipping away at the circle should see us through this battle! Here's hoping Tomas, our favourite tank (engine), can hold out long enough. ^^;

[NeoTiamat]

I'm back! Preliminary results good! And after having eaten, I'm not even homocidal! I might want to main someone a little, but that's why we have Tomas.

Anyways, few notes.

1. The HP from Negative levels is, as I read it, your maximum HP being lowered by that amount. It's damage, but damage that can't be healed until you remove the negative levels. Ergo, it does stack with the HP from damage.

2. I am looking at Lia's character sheet right now, and it says she has 32 HP. 32-20=12. 12-11=1. Or am I missing something? Temporary HP has alrady been burned through (by the first attack and the AoOs).

[Rock of the Fraternity]

Alright, unless Close Wounds can save Lia, it would seem that I'm looking at a Raise Dead spell. Or perhaps the purchase of a scroll of Resurrection? This, of course, provided the nice people in the monastery are prepared to sell us the gemstones to power it. Feel free to sell any or all of the following items on Lia's person, provided they're not stolen by an enemy of some sort.
The items include:
* Four silver holy symbols (Andral, Ezra, Morninglord, Ra)
* One watch (mundane item, but highly expensive)
* One +1 cane (treat as club)
* One Skull Plaque
* One Ring of Mystic Fire
* One masterwork pistol
If this turns out not to be enough, I'm going to have to ask you guys for a loan of some sort. This, of course, provided you're willing to go to the trouble for Lia. I'll admit she's been more than troublesome on numerous occasions, but she can be useful. Right?

On a different note, may I suggest Kuzan pours his Dispel Magic into that bloody circle while Charles gets away from Schrödinger?

*EDIT* I'm told that Close Wounds will work plenty. And with Mr. Flapsie's bond to Cav broken and his tummy full of Lia's blood ( ), we can hopefully write him off from this battle.

I really need a heal. I don't think I can use lay on hands on myself and attack in the same round. Obviously I should've min/maxed a little more.

[Kaitou Kage]

Dood, Tomas, if there's healing needed and the battle's still going, you'll have to put it on yourself. The two people with healing spells are in remote corners of the battle.

That being said, Cavvy's little circle there just got smooshed.

[Nathan of the FoS]

Good work, man, now get the heck out of there. Cavvy probably won't go after you again, he's about to have other worries. (Having brought down the circle, I expect the appearance of the Abbot very, very soon.)

[Kaitou Kage]

Tomas, if you are at the "really need a heal" stage, then you better get the heck out of there as Charles said if you want to keep playing Tomas. "Schrodinger" is not a very friendly fellow.

[Rock of the Fraternity]

Incidentally, if the taint continues to spread the way it's been doing sofar, it might be a good idea for everyone who can to get their feet off the ground.

[lostboy]

Even though it seems we may have completed taking the magic circle down, may I suggest the canon crew send something big, metal and nasty the way of the two smilers?

Perhaps with such suitable provocation they and Cavvys other odd pet could be persuaded to head to the ship of certain fiery explosive doom (tm)?
