Errands to run. I'll check back in later on today... probably tonight.

No, I think you used the standard Avoid Planar Effects, which lasts 1 minute/level.

@TaranTheWanderer, you could have Phar summon the lantern archon and then @Neurotic could have Maur cast planar tolerance to protect all the characters and the lantern archon as well.

I don't think good outsiders are immune to taint. Now, since a lantern archon has a permanent Magic Circle against Evil, if that spell protects it from the Gloom's taint (unlikely), then it should be immune. However, the characters will have to stay within the circle at all times. And if the...

The summoned creature would immediately take 1d3 points of taint when it arrives in the Gloom. It won't be happy to be summoned to such an evil place, but there is no risk that the creature won't answer the summoning. If the creature is defeated in the Gloom, there is a 5% chance it will die...

Heroes of Horror has a spell called Resist Taint, which bestows a +4 bonus on saves against taint. It is a 3rd level spell for clerics, druids, paladins, rangers, and sorcerer/wizards. Comp: V, S, DF Casting Time: 1 standard action Range: Touch Target: Creature Touched Duration: 10 min./level...

I don't think protection from evil will prevent the characters from becoming tainted when they enter the Gloom. It would apply to any additional saving throws required while in the Gloom beyond 24 hours. Either the spell would have to be cast just before each 24 hour period ends or another more...

More details about Taint from the SRD... Becoming Tainted Initial exposure to a tainted place or tainted objects gives a character 1d3 points of taint. For every 24 hours spent in a tainted place, or spent carrying a tainted object, a character must make a Fortitude saving throw. The base DC...

New post has been added. I will be adding more details here later on tonight (if I get it all done today).

While it might be possible that the demons are native to the Gloom, it is more likely they were called or summoned from elsewhere. No, Phar has no idea if the vrocks are native to the Gloom or the Abyssal Depths. The demons could even have been hatched by Wyrknari Vok here on the Material Plane...

The new post is finally done and added to the IC thread. This one took me a while to get right. Note that for Rikiron, Moradin gave the inevitable 10 ranks of Knowledge (the planes) for its mission. When I rolled for its check, I got a natural 20. :rolleyes: So, his roll is considered a 40...

"I have no power to heal a construct or any other being," Cruel Justice replies. "I defeat the guilty." OOC: Reminder... CJ can share Detect Thoughts with Quinn once per day. He can also cast Zone of Truth 3 times per day. "The Gloom," Rikiron replies. "It will be a dangerous place for you to...

Each PC gets 750 XP for the encounter with the Brooding Skeletons. This includes both Aureus and Locke.

I've started the process of starting to write my next reply. Working on it a bit tonight, but it won't go up until Friday.

I'll add more details about key locations noted on the map if you guys want to know more. I'll post this map to both the Discord and Facebook group. EDIT: The wilderness is considered trackless.

Yes, Angus's speed is 80 feet with his horseshoes of speed. I'm going to post a map that shows the entire Gloom. If the PCs go straight towards the Shrine, it will only be 4 miles. There is the option to take a slightly longer way that has less difficult terrain.

You know that the Gloom is mildly evil-aligned. As well, all undead have a +2 resistance to being turned while in the demiplane. That value stacks with any of the creature's turn resistance. From Ralix's Cross to the barrier was only 5,808 feet (1.1 miles). It is another 4 miles to reach the...
