Eyes Of The Lich Queen

Ari rubs his temples. "None of you have means of opening it from afar magically?"

"I have nothing that would accomplish it in my prayerbook, let alone prepared, short of trying to destroy the lock as Jango suggests -- and I think he has better means for that than I." Khalia said.

"I can possibly melt it. I can burn items with simple ray. Nothing to do with my old mark, one might be enough to melt down a simple lock. Two will be enough for sure." confirm Jango.

 

[DEFCON 1]

Jango OOC: When you think about it more carefully, you pretty much realize that neither your magic missiles nor your scorching rays would be able to break a lock quickly. (Average locks have a Hardness of 15 and 30 hit points)

OOC: Damned

Jango stares a moment at the cage. "Maybe not... I would have more chance to burn the cage then the lock. I think we can forget that idea."

"I still think I'd be best for the job. If the girallon does indeed come after me, I can always flee through some of the lizardfolk ranks and hope they find him more of a threat than I." Rogan says with a tone that makes it seem like he would prefer the girallon not come after him at all.

"If Rogan were to open the lock and make a run for it through the Lizards he would be directing the Gorillion into the path of our enemies. Though it would expose him to undue hostilities. He may be able to get into the area and open the lock with stealth...then once the door is open he could run quickly as," He pulls out the whistle "a call goes out for danger.

Brother Donovan, human cleric

"If Rogan were to open the lock and make a run for it through the Lizards he would be directing the Gorillion into the path of our enemies. Though it would expose him to undue hostilities.

Donovan frowns. "I have a means of keeping others from attacking you, but it doesn't last long, and I need to be able to touch you to make it work. I doubt you could sneak in, let alone pick the lock, before it faded. I can give you minor blessing of the Flame, though."

[sblock=OOC]Poo. Sanctuary has a range of touch and only lasts a few rounds. Guidance, on the other hand, lasts a full minute. +1 to a skill check might be a decent nudge on the Hide / Move Silent or Open Lock checks.[/sblock]

Jina just waits, eying the Girallon with fascination. Detailed tactical planning is not her forté. She's really more for improvisation... so for now she'll exercise all the patience she can, and once there's a plan in place she'll improvise around it.

 

[DEFCON 1]

The party prepares for Rogan to go forward and try and unlock the girallon cage. Horatio casts Guidance upon him to hopefully make his stealth a bit more secure. The others quickly try and get themselves into positions to take out the blackscales as quickly as possible.

[sblock=Temple Grounds]Here is the entire map of the temple grounds, each square is five feet. The five pairs of blackscales are numbers 1-5, and the two pairs of poison dusks are numbered 8-9. The blackscales have been circling the temple clockwise, whereas the poison dusks have been hanging around their hut complex.

For sake of simplicity, we will assume their current locations on the map are where they will be when Rogan (hopefully) unlocks the girallon cage at the start of Round 0 (the surprise round).

The rest of you are currently at the bottom of the map to the right of the path, but if you want to be elsewhere when Round 0 starts, please let me know approximately where you are. Bear in mind though that if you try and move elsewhere, the lizardfolk will get spot/listen checks depending on how close you come to them. So trying to get to a different position is up to you. Also, if there are any spells or abilities you want to cast/use before Rogan heads off, please let me know of that as well.

Once everyone is all set with where they are and what they have done, I will begin Rogan's stealth and open locks checks.

OOC: As Rogan will start to pick the lock, Jango will enter into a prophetic favor. I think he still have his Mage Armor, but if it isn't the case, he will cast it.
