[QUOTE="N'raac, post: 6208885, member: 6681948"] If the Rogue thinks he has staved off retribution, at what point should he object? After three game sessions of dealing with attacks on the city, when we discover it all links back to the Drake? "No, I bluffed him - the past three game sessions should be reversed" seems a bit problematic at that point. Another aspect of this issue occurs today. If we are carefully reasoning through Planar Binding, the Wish can be granted. Assume [MENTION=22779]Hussar[/MENTION] has pledged the appropriate evil sacrifices to the Glabrezu, sufficient that it is willing to grant the Wish, and the opposed CHA check indicates it is, in fact, eager to do so. But it granted a wish a few days ago. I would suggest that the granting of the Wish can be achieved entirely through the Glabrezu's own abilities, so the bargain has been struck and sealed. It's not an indefinite task, so it does not have that one day per caster level limit. So the bargain has been struck, and the Glabrezu now tells the wizard that his wish "will be granted in due time - and I shall then return so you may fulfill your half of the bargain." Unless the bargain turned to precise timing, there is no reason the Glabrezu should tell the wizard that it will be, say, three weeks before he can actually grant the desired Wish. [/QUOTE]
