Greyhawk - Return of the Slavelords! Part 1

Verric Human Rogue/Wizard

ooc: My understanding is that the rest of the party will attempt to follow the first group 3 minutes later then link up with the first group under the cover of the "forest". After that will look at posible ways in other than the front gate.

Lorien, Human Ranger

"I wonder if Verrick has some magic that can get us inside?"

"I wonder if Verrick has some magic that can get us inside?"

"Well, I have some spells that might help in the right circumstances. Find me a door and I can open it, or I have some magic for finding secret doors, or even making someone unseen briefly." With a broad grin he adds, "If you want to launch yourself over the wall in a catapult I can make you land safey."

 

[Someone]

Norbac watches the fortress and moves the head left and right, thinking. "what if..." says "we thinking this a castle run by bandits. Maybe it just an abandoned castle and they using it to rest before continuing. If not, we would see people on the battlements."

"Maybe your familiar can fly and see how many of the are inside? says to Verrick, while still thinking; his upper lip curl in a sign of concentration.

"If we need I have magic that could open a hole in the wall, if it´s not very thick." [ooc: a stone shape scroll, it could open a hole with a diameter of about 19 inches (47 cm) and 7,5 feet long (2,25 meters)]

"Er Norbac, I'm not too familiar with spells, but could the dimensions of your spell be changed? Could you say make it four times longer and four times narrower instead?"

"I will indeed send Rauxy for a look around." Verrick sends Rauxy to get an idea of how many eyes are on the walls and towers. "Stay away from archers you silly bird."

"Perhaps there is a place on the wall where there is already some damage or decay that will make it easier for us to get in using stone shape." Scratching his chin in thought he adds "Surely they have a postern or some other smaller way in than the main gate. I think we, at least the more stealthy among us, should scout the perimeter and see what our options are."

Norbac nods at what Verrick said, knowing he´s better at those things.

"Er Norbac, I'm not too familiar with spells, but could the dimensions of your spell be changed? Could you say make it four times longer and four times narrower instead?"

The half orc shrugs. "maybe"

OOC: That depends on how the DM rules the effect, though I´d say yes. It would be half width and four times longer, since the spell is limited by a fixed volume; we´re talking about a cilinder here.

"Well, if you can, maybe have this pipe shaped grove go diagonally up the side of the wall (30ft). It will make our climb much easier since we'll have an inclined handhold all the way up."

 

[Someone]

"Or I could make actual handholds, that would make climbing a child´s play" says Norbac. "But I´ll wait and see what the bird says."

 

[Karl Green]

Rauxy takes flight again and flies over the wall... a few moments later, he reappears and lands back down, still giving the feeling of safe; he appears not to have seen anything.

[occ]As for Stone Shape, it could work, depending on how thick the walls are. For 25ft tall wall, they might be very thick. The walls are weather worn, and the ground soft, so it could weaken them also depending on where you shape the earth; at the corner, depending on the stability of the wall, it could cause a collapse. Of course, many people are aware of magical attacks and have taken precautions against it…[/occ]
