[QUOTE="kigmatzomat, post: 9578660, member: 9254"] Sure. If your barbarian gets lucky that's great. Our fighter failed his save and began beating the wizard like a rug with Action Surge. The Raksasha was hiding behind a [i]minor illusion[/i]. When the fighter finally made his save, the Raksasha used [i]minor illusion[/i] (no verbal components) to draw attention elsewhere. Then they popped out of the illusion and clawed the wizard and cleric, cursing them. They ignored all the casters spells but took took some damage from the melees before using Fly+dash to get separation and lost us, possibly switching to Invisibility. As it is, later that night the Fighter on watch was [i]suggested[/i] to go on patrol...in an 8-hour force march carrying the raksasha, to a cliff. Where they were [i]Dominated[/i] (again) , ordered to strip naked and then jump off the cliff. They didn't die, but they had 4 levels of Exhaustion and no food, so even if they rested they wouldn't get better. The Raksasha put on his gear, cast [i]Disguise Self[/i] as the fighter, met us on the trail, said the Raksasha had gotten in his head. Handed over his weapons in case he was mind controlled, then clawed the cleric and wizard (again) before flying off (again) with most of the Fighter's gear. This went on for days. Our Warlock knew [i]Remove Curse[/i] or we'd never have gotten any rest. The GM had decided against the Raksasha [i]Plane Shifting[/i] anyone to Gehenna. But they thought about it. Instead they gave the Raksasha [i]Banish[/i] which they used on the Fighter when we finally cornered it in a spot it couldn't fly out. I can't miss what wasn't in OP. [I]True Seeing[/i] the spell has a 120ft range and requires using a 1/day power. [/QUOTE]
