I don't like this implementation. It makes the drawbacks of specialization almost nothing, since you could easily drop schools like Necromancy and Conjuration and still have all the offensive power schools, with the utility schools (and schools with no-save attack spells) at your disposal. You...

The ingenuity of the enemy impresses Qalare. That was quick thinking, forcing Torvak to help free him. Those red-garbed men would have taken far longer to accomplish the task. Luckily, I know the limitations of his spell just as he knows the limitations of mine. Knowing that Torvak must heed...

I think it's safe to assume that we've all met before, and probably know each others' names and general "story" (i.e. what you do for the Caliph). If you think Rana's position would put her in direct contact with Qalare (and the others) as friends instead of "that diplomat who works with the...

If he saves against my Flesh to Stone spell then I'll consider it a lost cause. It is important to know how large the palace is, as well, because I would also Dimension Door away, though the new Dimension Door allows carrying (in my case) 4 medium-sized passengers. We should also decide which...

After the barrage of terrible magics, Qalare is uncertain of how to proceed. If he is protected by positive energy, an enervation ray is likely to be instantly counteracted. Likewise, he seems to be immune to all direct damage. Some indirect attack seems like the only wise choice. Flying...

It's no problem, wasn't a big mistake. The spells I have active are on my character sheet, since they last for a long time and I cast them daily (or biweekly in the case of Contingency, generally). I haven't done a lot of PbP combats, I still consider myself a rookie. I'll do the reminder thing...

I'm terribly confused as for the results of the last round of combat, sorry for being nitpicky, but a whole bunch didn't go as I expected. =] 1. How am I at 10/49 HP? I have a total of 71 HP. By my math I took 35 the previous round, and healed 14 of it, leaving me at 21 damage. When I got hit...

[Yuan-ti have the same stats as far as polymorph is concerned. They all have snake heads and human arms now. Main things I get are the +10 natural armor that magic improves upon (revised Barkskin and Amulet), the bite attack with grab, constrict and poison (DC 20 for me, based on HD and Con)...

I'm pretty sure this application of Forcecage doesn't block line of effect, DM_Matt. I could be wrong on that. Also I believe that disintegrating part of it destroys the whole thing. The Reverse Gravity field lasts a decent amount of time though, so the 4 soldiers in red will have trouble...

[Okay, no problem. I only ask about the Forcecage, because I can't see or touch it like the rest of the characters can :D] Continuing his magical assault, Qalare performs more common set of incantations, necessary to change his shape. As the magical energies take their course, Qalare begins to...

What's going on now? Tt's been a couple of days and no word from anyone.

Without Siva and Devi to protect him, Qalare quickly runs through his options. He has some type of protective magic, I don't know which of my spells will penetrate it. Too risky. Those 4 soldiers in red look like trouble, as well. I'd better fortify and see if these new and strange bedfellows of...

Eventually, Dex gets high enough that armor only decreases your AC. Adding Int on top of Dex and AC is even higher. After putting a +10 to +13 dodge bonus for elaborate parry (don't forget the default +3 for fighting defensively and having 5 tumble ranks), AC is very competitive with tank...

Seeing that the strange young man has given him no other choice, Qalare is forced to action. I wish I knew more about this mysterious young man, it seems unwise to kill him before seeing his hand. Stalling still seems to be the best option. Not wishing to bring harm to the loyal guards, he...

Overcoming his initial reaction, Qalare makes no initial violent action. He merely holds up a hand to indicate that he wishes to speak. "Guards," he says, addressing the guards, but obviously speaking to the mysterious advisor. "This new vizier is correct. But if we are in fact, enemies of the...

Qalare is a wizard of some renown, though his homeland is a mystery. He is known as an elementalist, an artificer, and a sage. Enigmatic and powerful, his tactics are as outlandish as they are effective. He fights tyranny and the wicked, yet is thought of as a troublemaker and an upstart. While...

Gotcha. I just wanted to make sure there was no miscommunication.

From the IC post... I'm not sure what this means... I intended to bring my golems. I just wanted some kid to housesit while I was away, and to get that book I was reading stuck back on a shelf. Also, should we respond to the Caliph, or wait for Jade?

In a moment of respite, Qalare relaxes in a hookah bar, perusing an recently acquired arcane tome. He desires no attention today, and has adopted an illusionary guise for his public outing. Seeing Jalok enter the bar, Qalare slithers down into his chair. Not today... I've been away for weeks. I...

Other posters have pretty much hit upon the solution. If the enemy Wizard doesn't know where the Fighter is, he can't teleport next to him. To solve this, the Wizard will either Scry or Discern Location, or possibly Discern Location then Clairvoyance if Discern isn't enough information for a...
