My good rolls are all in the wrong places. Poo :(


Reflex vs. muck; Balance vs. water; Reflex vs. Lightning (1d20+7=17, 1d20+2=7, 1d20+7=15)

But then again, if Moru's pulled 5' out of place, does that take him out of the lightning line?

Anyway, as he's being pulled to the ground and sliding around, Moru and his familiar are chittering away about what this beastie can do and what the best way is of taking it down:

Aid Another (Know: Dungeoneering) (1d20+6=26)

Know: Dungeoneering (Aided by Retbi) re: Beholders (1d20+12=15) (Edit: I used the right modifier, but labeled the know skill wrong. Fixed)

[sblock=Moru]Good question about the lightining. I shall consult my co-DM. I'll tell you now that you can already determine this Beholder is unusual and that he is a beholder mage giving up some of his traditional powers in favor of spell casting.[/sblock]
 

SoulFetter

Caught completely by surprise, SoulFetter reaches up to wipe the muck from his eyes and then loses his balance and ends up on his arse in the mud. Lucky for him, his embarassment over the tumble fortifies his resolve. He feels the nefarious will of the strange creature working on his mind, but easily resists the pull.

Quickly standing up, the Urgant draws his bow and nocks an arrow.

[sblock=Saving Throws]Reflex: 1d20+3=4
Balance: 1d20+1=9
Will: 1d20+5=25


Am I correct that standing up from prone and readying his bow will eat up all of his actions for this round?[/sblock]
 

[sblock=Co-DM responds]Sure, let the weenie squeak by this time! ;) j/k jkason[/sblock]

Mowgli: You are correct, Sir!

Moru Sen, human conjurer (prone)

((OOC: Hooray for technicalities! Technicalities in my favor, anyway. ;) ))

As muck goes flying, Moru manages stay clean, although his attention on the muck leaves him off-balance, as the riptide of returning water drags him off his feet and toward the stream. Even as he's swearing at his own clumsiness, the air just behind him crackles and burns--the wizard takes the hint and stops complaining about things are, seeing as his current lot appears to have saved him a worse fate.

Retbi's aggravated chittering also seems to change as the bolt narrowly misses the conjurer. His small eyes taking in the creature, Moru's familiar twitches his nose, and a smile crosses the young man's face.

"I don't see much of a nose, but it sure is harder to cast at what you can't see," he agrees. Even as he shoves himself to his feet, Moru reaches into his belt pouch, pulling out an egg. He tosses it while spitting out a phrase in Sylvanoptera. Clearly propelled by more than just the wizard's arm, the egg arcs over the stream, falling on the far side and seemingly exploding in a cloud of green and brown gasses that engulf the Beholder.

"Stay clear of the cloud if you want to keep your breakfasts, friends," he says. "If this works, he won't be able to use any more of those nasty spells, and it's hard to aim an eye if you can't see anything."

[sblock=OOC]Move action to stand, then casting Stinking Cloud, centered on G7. That should mean it covers the Beholder without hitting anyone else.

DC 17 Fort save or the beastie is nauseated while in the cloud and for 1d4+1 rounds thereafter. At the very least, though, I think he's far enough in that we've all got total concealment from him. I hope. :)[/sblock]
