Deuce Traveler's Six Nights to Yearsend (Ptolus one-shot)

[Angel Tarragon]

Why do I feel like this is a game called Final Fantasy VI and I'm playing Terra and the Slave Crown has just been lifted from my head?

 

[Dekana]

Deuce?

 

[Deuce Traveler]

Damn! Found out. By the way, the prison if very much like this in the Ptolus book in case anyone is wondering. I had imagined a different scenario, but when I read about who ran the Ptolus Prison and the people he was closely allied with, this part ran itself.

 

[Lorthanoth]

I did wonder if you'd changed it drastically. It really surprised me that Ptolus has such a vile prison. But Monte Cook does seem to do horrid evil rather well viz. his WoD and Chaositech.

Can we cast spells with a somatic component while in manacles? I can get out of the cell with Dimension Hop (verbal only), but I'm going to need my hands. I don't think I have line of sight to get into someone else's cell. Some of my better spells don't require components--Doom Scarabs, Scorching Ray, Shocking Grasp and Burning Hands.

 

[Dekana]

I'd like an answer to that too actually. Remember that a monk's unarmed strike doesn't have to be hands; it can be kicks, headbutts, kneeing, etc. I would suggest a divine transposition, switching Kaeso and Tagret if that's possible. If not, you could hop over to luna's cell, get your cuffs picked, and then do the swap.

As long as Tagret isn't totally bound he's lethal. I'm trying to get the dang warden to take him instead of any of the rest of you. Tagret can heal 30hp at a time. (2x monk level + 1/2 monk level off of my shirt and class abilities)

I would allow it with a successful Spellcraft check, the DC being the spell DC +5.

And as for monks, their entire bodies are weapons so the monk can fight as normal.

Well that opens up Morty's options significantly...

 

[Lorthanoth]

Tagret is such a loon! I'd lock him up!
