Eschton [mature] IC - Calling Arabesu

[Shayuri]

(I'm assuming I can see the wall with See the Unseen...if not, I guess she wouldn't know it was there and would just hit it. )

"This creature reeks of evil; ancient and foul," Sigil declares, knowing what would make the unicorns react like that. "It never had any intention of letting us go outside of its control."

Still invisible, she flies up over the wall and aims her wand at the little girl, unleashing a potent elfbolt. A narrow sliver of bright white light that makes a sound like a thunderclap and leaves the acrid scent of scorched air in its wake. The force of the blast is great enough that it tangibly pushes the air ahead of it, making a brief gust of wind swirl through the narrow corridor of the vessel.

(attack! Roll: 36 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1486546/ ranged touch. Repelling Blast DC 27 or be knocked back 1d6x5 feet. Spell penetration: 31 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1486550/ , damage: 46 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1486551/ Notes: AC 33, touch 24, luck bonus set to Fort, current status: invisible )

 

[Arabesu]

Assuming that there is little risk to his person, he would allow the more intimate contact.

OOC sorry its brief I wanted to get something down, but my daughter is also trying to type. Tyrroth, has a good will save, so unless a deleterious spell/effect of very high level is possible over the contact, then he feels confident that he is safe.

Sigil's attack, over the invisible cube of energy surrounding Serraphina, sends the nude girl flying, knocking her off of the ooze creature. Moments later, another cacophony bursts out of nowhere, this time amongst Sigil, Karnak, and Arhaux. All three are able to jump back from the worst of it. Karnak, in fact, manages to escape unscathed, while Sigil takes 35 points of sonic damage. Arhaux fires at the ooze creature, again to no apparent effect.

Arabesu - Allowing a deeper connection would make it relatively easy to allow an unscrupulous psychic to attempt some sort of attack. A momentary check of the psi-web verifies that Argus is legendary for his psionic capabilities. Its quite possible that one of his stature may be able to attack through a regular psi-web connection. But it is highly unlikely (though not completely unheard of) for someone who has risen to the position of Governor over a core world to do such a thing. Spoofing ID over the psi-web is nearly impossible.

 

[Arabesu]

Can Tyrroth guess why he would need to establish such an intimate psychic contact in order to find the shard of soul. I.e. does it make sense and/or is this the kind of thing that might be done with regularity? Is he suggesting via innuendo that he intends to "heal" Tyrroth with Psychic Chirurgery or is he just trying to identify what features of Tyrroth's soul are missing?

Tyrroth is slightly wary, "Your offer is very enticing. What exactly do you intend to do over this psychic contact? I have studied the parts of the mind and I must admit that while I am a very disciplined entity, a trace remnant of trepidation and my inherent caution may inhibit your progress inadvertently by placing psychic defenses. Please, take no offense, but perhaps if you explained your protocol, my subconsious fears would be allayed and we could proceed uninhibited."

OOC assuming he describes something psionic, Tyrroth evaluates his safety. In particular, trying to id the power, with Psycraft 1d20 + 15 and Knowledge (Psionics) 1d20+22, taking ten if viable, thus identifying up to level 10 powers.

OOC-It was a wall of force across 8 - D. E. & F. not a cube of force.

Arabesu IC:
Argus explains, not yet proceeding with the psychic manifestation, "It is similar to a mind probe but searches the essential nature and soul rather than thoughts and memories. And while I am doing so, with your permission, I can provide you with some defences against Outer Dark corruption."

OOC: Such Mind Probe variants certainly do exist. They are primarily used in the science of transmigration.

Vertexx69 OOC:
I thought you were using the blue diamond under given items at the top of the RG, that acts as a Cube of Force. What crystal were you referring to?

 

[Vertexx69]

OOC- How would I push off of a cube of force if I'm inside it?

 

[Arabesu]

"Citizen Starzaeon, I am fully amenable to your Probe and to the psychic-boon you have offered. Let us proceed when you are ready."

OOC is there a better title for Argus that I should be using? Do I get the impression that I should be using his first name at this point, i.e. would he only offer such an intimate contact if he was willing to forgo formalities?

 

[Voidrazor]

Vertexx69 OOC:
The 1 HP 'push walls' are maybe 5' by 5'. And other than those, the Cube of Force functions of the diamond work exactly as described in the SRD entry.
