Academy of Drell, Part 7

[Zhure]

Still need to use UMD to emulate a CHA of 19, and declare a target site to make the 'device' work.

 

[Jeremy]

Rallyn nods and waits for those not in the closet to either get clear or take cover.

OOC: I have no idea how to do that as a player. Lyrique will try to say and think the word library

 

[Jarval]

Mortimer stands and takes a few steps back, giving his companions room to work. His attention has shifted from Lyrique and Paendaerig to Rallyn's task, the spear being the item that first caught his interest.

PHB, page 76, re: UMD
"Emulate Ability Score: To cast a spell from a scroll, you need a high ability score in the appropriate ability (Intelligence for wizard spells, Wisdom for divine spells, and Charisma for sorcerer or bard spells). Your effective ability score (appropriate to the class you’re emulating when you try to cast the spell from the scroll) is your result minus 15. If you already have a high enough score in the appropriate ability, you don’t need to make this check."

Since the teleportation pad is a spell completion item, you'd need either an INT, CHA or DEX of 19 (for Wizards, Sorcerers, or Psion (Nomads) respectively) to be able to complete the 'casting.' Since Lyrique has none of these stats, he'd need to get a separate UMD check of 17 (he has a 17 Cha, and needs to emulate a 19; 19-2+15=17 DC).

Mortimer take a glance at the spear case. It's clear Rallyn is thinking of opening the container.

OK.. UMD check 17+13=30

 

[Jeremy]

Once everyone is clear Rallyn will attempt first just to open the case using far hand and lift the spear out at distance. Should that fail he will hurl something handy (candlestick, trophy, paperweight, etc) at the case and try to break it. Should that fail he will try launching his spear at the case. After each action he will duck behind his cover just in case.

 

[Zhure]

Lyrique begins casting the teleport circle, establishing a temporary link between this small closet and the library in Drell, many leagues away.

 

[Jarval]

Mortimer shuffles back from Rallyn's experiment, ducking behind any cover that presents itself.
