Gassy float down to 70n60e and becomes Paul. No sign from Ringo.

Drac will move southwest and then fly northeast then east, up and over the blade barrier and then down again, ending up over Armstrong at, say, 105n90e10z heading east and bites / snatches Armstrong (again).
[sblock] Ringo readies a bite. [/sblock]
 

Top of 122:
Another natural 20 from Drac's bite, which is confirmed for 36 - 10 = 26 pts of damage.
That then starts the grapple, which Drac wins (43 vs. 36). Armstrong has 72 hp remaining.

Bottom of 122 for Good!
 


"Paul, get to the zone center."

Paul greater teleports to 95n55e.

Ringo does not appear.

"This is gonna hurt me more than it's gonna hurt you. Well, no, not really."

Drac does a wingover, flies into the blade barrier and lands at 105n55e and bites Armstrong again, pulling him into the blade barrier as well.

OOC: Now, the real reason I'm doing this pseudo bizarre maneuver. No SR because it's his own spell? No save because of Snatch? Regardless of the answer to these, Drac will do it.

[sblock] Ringo still readying that bite. At some point Armstrong will teleport to the top. [/sblock]
 

Top of 123:
Drac plunges through the blade barrier, avoiding the worst of the damage (SV22) and taking (49/2 = 24 pts) and has 130 hp left.
Drac just misses going 3-for-3 with critical bites, only getting a natural 19 for this bite, which is plenty good enough to hit for (13 - 10) 3 hp damage. Armstrong has 69 hp.
Drac successfully grapples with the snatch (40 vs. 24)

I'm going to say that yes Armstrong gets SR against his own spell, and yes he gets a SV. He penetrates his own SR (30) and makes his SV (23) and takes (37 / 2) = 18 hp. Armstrong now has 51 hp left.

Bottom of 123 for Good!


OOC: Saves are odd things - how could a massive creature like Drac pass through the barrier and not be fully affected? Well, he winged and dodged or something. How could Armstrong not be fully affected when held in Drac's mouth? Well, he shrank away in one direction, wriggled in the other, forced Drac to shy away from a particularly big blade or something. It's all very meta.
 

I just thought of something. Under the summon spell-like ability in the MM, it states that the ability is as though casting a summon monster spell. In that case, summoned monsters should not be able to use teleportation or planar travel abilities, as noted in SMI.
