Brave New Planes

[Paxus Asclepius]

Sandorel's face darkens, and the voice that comes forth is harsh with struggle.
"No! I'm warning you, angel. Make one more move and I'll blast you into oblivion. Death will also render you helpless."


ooc: How long time has passed since we entered the Astral?

OOC: You don't know IC, barring spell durations, but it's been a little over 4 hours.

The angel draws himself up, the light around him brightening to a near-painful intensity. "Threaten me, will you? I should crush you where you stand."

"Give me an other option, or I will destroy you."

Sandorel activates his second Bead of Karma and readies to cast a Quickened (if magic in the prison operates like they do in the rest of the Astral) Spell Resistance (SR 12+25) on himself as soon as the angel makes a hostile move against the party.

 

[Dalamar]

OoC: Of course you decide to move forward with leaps and bounds when I can't get to the boards due to scheduling (read: folks forcing me to do school work).

IC: Vilya steps through the portal, readying for whatever she might come across.

"You are pawns, not responsible for your actions, so I will try to let you live." With that, waves of energy erupt from him, and everyone is fatigued.


Initiative order: Angel, Kelnar, Rynin, Cimmerian, Brystasia, Antillis, Sandorel.

GoldenEagle, looks like your move.

IC: Vilya steps through the portal, readying for whatever she might come across.

Vilya is suddenly surrounded by combat; a 10-foot tall man with golden skin and tremendous white wings has just blasted her comrades with some strength-draining energy.

OOC: You'll act before everyone except the Angel next round; you're flatfooted this round.

 

[Serpenteye]

ooc: Does the prison work like the Astral plane, where all spells are Quickened?

If the Angel still stands when his initiative comes around Sandorel will cast Harm, move up to the Angel and release the spell. (caster level 25, DC 29, reach 10')
If he's been unable to avoid being grappled by the Cimmerian, he will attempt to cast a Blindness/Deafness spell to blind the Angel. (cl 25, DC 26, verbal component)

 

[Endur]

The Cimmerian yells, "Stop this Madness. Stygia is the land overrun by the Minions of Set. Your cleansing flame is needed there."

On his initiative, the Cimmerian will rage and grapple Sandorel (four grapple attempts assuming I'm within a 5' foot step of where Sandorel was standing). The Cimmerian will not attempt to cause injury to Sandorel, but will attempt to restrain him from casting spells, and pin him if possible.

Unfortunately, the compulsion spell's going to stop that. Instead, it diverts your attentions to Abd-Ratep.

Likewise, Sandorel can't destroy him. You need to subdue him somehow. And no, spells aren't quickened here.

"You will find the angel Abd-Raten and bring him here to me, helpless."

ooc:
So I guess I can't use Destruction, since that might consume his remains and make it impossible for us to bring him to the wizard. Can we kill him, without the remains being destroyed? Then he would be Helpless and we can Bring him to our enslaver. Or does the literal wording of the spell mean that we have to let him live?

OUCH! I didn't realize the phrasing didn't require living. Interpreted that way, yes, you could kill him. At least as far as the compulsion is concerned.
