Discussion for a Kingdom of ashes OOC II

[The_Universe]

The other list:

7 rings of Telepathy- 45000gp
70 potions of Cure Light Wounds- 3500gp (at least)
Wand of Wall of Stone- 11,250gp
Wand of Passwall- 11.250gp
Wand of Seeming- 11.250gp
Wand of Cure Moderate Wounds- 4,500

Obviously, we can't afford all of this. But we can go into deeper debt than we're in now...

Why don't you just get a wand of cure light wounds, rather than 70 potions? Are they that expensive?

As it stands you might have to go with scrolls, rather than wands, of some the spells (like Passwall).

Is Justice taking/using the last name Preston or is she still using Fairweather?

That's a good question... I'm thinking about taking the name Preston... but, at the same time, Fairweather is a good reminder for her of where she has come from... and what she will, someday, have to face.

(Fairweather is the name given to children without fathers born at sea)...

I'm thinking about it... I've asked Preston what he would say... and he has yet to respond *pokes the DM*

 

[The_Universe]

Preston shrugs. "Whatever. You do what you want. It's your beautiful body."

 

[Xath]

Preston shrugs. "Whatever. You do what you want. It's your beautiful body."

Ewwww.....

 

[The_Universe]

Ewwww.....

That was just a shorter, easier way of saying he is fine with it, but that he would not so quickly abandon the identity that he had had for so long, were it him.

Part Duex

So we have gained entry, started to leave our marks on the dead, cleared off part of the wall, know a little more of defense & entry points of the city watch, have a tunnel to outside Oceanus in progress, knowing the sewer systems and we all lived... well, we are all alive currently. We also have a thing knocking on the door. How to deal with that, I don't think, we can really plan for, but made for a great cliff hanger.
What we can plan for: the discussion pre-sleep/rest/alone time of what further scouting we need and how to get the elves out... right? Is this even our next step?

 

[Queen_Dopplepopolis]

Right now, we have the advantage of being able to plan our response to the draconids that are at our door...

Do we want to kill them and stick them in the sphere or do we want to try to bluff them away?

If we want to bluff them away, our main objective has got to be to get them to NOT come into the building... So, what lie do we want to use?
Xath and Justice speak draconic... (Xath has more ranks than Justice, though... I've only got 3)...

BRAINSTORM!

Double post same as below... sorry...

L'aurel's got four ranks in draconic, so I understand them but horrible-- not much good for the speaking part.
We could just go with two/one scared elves in the warehouse hiding who believe them and so open the door, while the rest of us are in hiding around the building. When they come in we jump them, kill them. Then drag/carry thier bodies through the sewer to another part of the city leaving the red cloth on them-- or we put them in the black hole.
OH, I have it! Let's put them in the blocks of ooze. Then when Queen of the Ooze makes them come to the surface, some will have dead guards floating in them with red cloth marks. That may have some phychological impact on the enemy But just an idea.

 

[The_Universe]

Doesn't look like there's anything I can add at this point. I'll continue to monitor the boards, but so far, most of this stuff looks like a good idea.
