"A wizard you say? Hmmmm.....interesting....that might be a fortuitous place to start, having all our assets at our disposal to face a powerful foe. Could you describe what effects Falrinth was it? Yes, Falrinth used against your group last time? It is always good to know what's coming ahead" Vaseda asks excitedly.

"I agree with Vaseda . . . we should take out the powerful foe first. We're going rested, and taking him down might prove disheartening to his allies."

OOC: Per the entry in the Info Thread:
Falrinth: A powerful wizard that you encountered during your explorations of the Temple of Elemental Evil's dungeons, he bested your group in combat, forcing you to flee before the awesome force of his powers. What exactly his function is within the Temple you have yet to divine. He is a tall slender man with a thin strip of hair upon his mostly bald head, a far-eastern style mustache and small arrow-shaped goatee, and a wicked countenance. He dresses well in plush silk robes and other such finery. You noted a jeweled dagger at his belt, but no other visible weapons. Ciaran noted that his power level may be on par with that of Lord Burne, as judged by his casting many spells, two of which were from the Fourth Order of Arcane Magnitude. These spells included Stoneskin, Wall of Fire, Magic Missile, Shield, Minor Global of Invulnerability, Lightning Bolt, and Scorching Ray.

"He can wield spells of the Fourth Order, but that should be his limit," Ciaran observes, tactically. "He was only capable of slinging four Magic Missiles at a time, which suggests the limit of his power."
Tracing shapes in the air before him to organize his thoughts, he continues, "Note that although we did not witness him casting it, I suspect he is also capable of Invisibility and a detailed illusion of some kind. When we encountered him, a demon appeared and taunted us, as if summoned. However, it would have been bound to the magic circle it was ostensibly in. True thaumaturgy requires magic of higher orders than Fourth, and thus I conclude that it is most likely an illusion, so placed to give him the time necessary to cast the Minor Globe and Stoneskin prior to his attack."
He looks at his companions sternly. "And please, should we meet him again in such a state, note that he can still be grappled and smothered. Do NOT be a coward and refuse to approach."

Hmmm... He was a tough bustard. We hold him responsible for the death of our monk.
Zirat say as he tries to recall the events.
We fled before his arcane might, right into the hands of Ogres and Trolls, thus taking the same route will not be wise.
Turning his look back to the temple again he adds
I suggest assaulting the first floor where Orcs and Hobgoblins lie.
He nods to the new comers
With the help of these two skilled fighters we can take them this time.
