Lysander speaks up. "We come in response to a message sent by Zelestine Thurass. Is she or one of the other elders present?

Cool, how many charges of my dorje did I use up healing Verra?

We could get true resurrection for the low low price of 1530 gp + 5000 gp material component per person and not lose levels. Assuming, of course, that it's priced as a standard 9th level spell. And there's a 17th level cleric available. And they're willing to resurrect us.

Lysander groans, standing up slowly. He looks around expectantly waiting for the others to do the same, but to no avail. He then goes to examine the others, to find Verra unconscious and not dead. Lysander pulls out his dorje of body adjustment and starts healing him until he's back on his feet...

Lysander is blown through the air by the force of the explosion. He falls to the ground and turns to face the ground so his psionic display will remain unseen, and manifests detect thoughts, praying they will stay long enough for it to have an effect, and that none will notice the telltale...

OOC: Actually, I'm still alive. Starting HP: 72 Endurance: +18 HP (Endurance (+4 con) = +2 con modifier = +2/level extra HP = +18) First fireball = -37 HP Second fireball = -45 HP -------------------------------------- Total: 8 HP left I also have a dorje of body adjustment - I presume no one...

Lysander screams from the burn. Throwing away his earlier decision to think before fighting, he manifests his most powerful attack, a mindwipe, on the flying mage, and then commands his psicrystal to use its stored stomp on the dwarf.

OOC: I'll drop the greater concussion and hold my action until the first of the four makes a move. If it is an attack (including psionic combat modes, psionic powers, or conventional means), I will manifest stomp, aimed to affect all three who are not levitating, if possible. The DC will be 1d20...

"Wait! Lysander says. "Let's not jump into this too quickly. We've not angered any mind flayers recently, and we've done nothing that should attract attention except the vision - though we've told no one but the temple of Pelor so far, and they are beyond reproach. Though we don't know how it...

"Mind flayer!" Lysander hisses. "What do you want? Speak quickly before we destroy you." Lysander prepares to activate a mental barrier should the illithid go for a mind blast or other psionic attack [no game effect; it's a free action anyway], and readies a greater concussion if the mind...

Lysander gestures towards the eye (or the space where the eye is, for those who can't see it). "My friends, we are being watched." He turns to the eye. "Who are you? If you wish to speak with us, do so, or begone." [asking for scryer to send a missive] Lysander ponders the odd shape of the...

"I would prefer a teleport myself, for Verra's reasons and because it would be far faster; the risk would be extraordinarily low anyhow, it's hardly a risk - the true risk would lie in moving too slowly and potentially allowing our quest to fail."

Done

"Yes, it seems that haste would be to our benefit on such a mission, and a teleport would be a minor hazard we should certainly risk." Lysander pauses. "The Colorless Lodge would indeed be our best source of information," he says, "I should have thought of that before rather than waste a...

Actually, you're right - he shouldn't have stats like that. However, after I'd finished creating him with far lower stats, Ashrem commented how much less effective combat-wise my character was compared to his, and I said that was mostly because my stats were lower. No one objected when I asked...

OOC: Actually, I just thought of another thing. I have a total Knowledge: Psionics of +14. Could you make a roll to see if I know anything myself? If nothing, go ahead and ask the questions, but if there is something, I might want to modify questions based on that.

"Well, modify them as you will, but here are my suggestions: 'Was the intent of whatever or whoever contacted us a deception of any sort, or was it in earnest?' 'Was it an intelligent being?' 'Does the crystal sea and the fact that it contacted Verra, as a psion, signify that it involves...

Moving, moving. Incidentally, is anyone interested in taking this game at least once or twice to IRC? Maybe just as a test run, now that the holidays have rolled around and a lot of us are free from work or school for the next couple weeks.

"Yes, I believe we all saw the vision." Lysander looks to Verra packing his belongings. "So we're going to seek a sage or bard, then?" He finishes his meal and stands up. "No sense wasting time about it."

Lysander blinks. "How odd. What could it be? Clearly something important - unless, of course, it's a renegade mage of some sort trying to trap us with smoke and mirrors - but my intuition tells me otherwise." Lysander's voice is smooth and urbane. "Well, obviously we've got to do something...
