Alethia will be happy to pitch in for a wand or rod of restoration.

 

[Hypersmurf]

BTW - this stuff is nice and all but if we are going to be fighting a bunch of vampires how about we all pitch in for a staff of Deathward or lots of Greater restoration? Negative levels suck. Permanent level loss sucks worse.

You know what we really want?

Dancing mirrors. Preferably silver rather than glass, so they can't be shattered easily.

You can keep a vampire at bay with a mirror (so no slam attacks, and no negative levels!), but it takes a standard action. An animated floating mirror that could handle the keep-at-bay side of things while leaving us our actions would be classy.

Even better. Dancing, blessed mirrors inscribed along the edges with our particular holy symbols. Now that's something those guys shouldn't like to much. Oh and we probably need to eat lots of garlic before hand.

Ah, I remember lovely Mordavia in the fall. Every meal, breakfast, lunch and dinner was liberally seasoned with garlic.

I'd think in Faerun, garlic would be a cash crop. A MAJOR cash crop.

*Looks wistful. I loved the garlic eggs benadict and garlic crusted bread myself. The vampires didn't, but oh well. Different tastes......

 

[Hawkeye]

I have no problems with contributing to a wand or rod of that sort.

[Keia]

I agree on helping with a wand or whatever

. . . in fact I was looking at Psionic restoration as well . . . but it will probably be a level or two before I can take it.

Now, here's a thought.

Spoilered so the players can read it, but not the DM for now

[sblock]Sunbeam is a great spell against vampires - it destroys them.

... on a failed Reflex save.

The issue there, of course, is that Kurin likely has an insanely high Reflex save.

So we need a way to lower the save.

Depending on interpretation of certain key sentences, when someone is bound, they either a/ can't make a Reflex save, or b/ make a Reflex save with an effective Dex of 0 (-5 modifier instead of their normal +whatever).

A set of Iron Bands of Bilarro - bind an opponent, ranged touch attack, no save - costs 26k. It wouldn't hold a vampire long - gaseous form would get him out - but with the right readied actions, there wouldn't be a chance for him to escape...[/sblock]

How much would one of those special daggers that have a way of holding a poison in them and then delivering them upon striking an opponent cost?

I figure a silver version one of those filled with holy water and garlic juice is going to make quite an impression on a demon or vampire.... I think Alethia would like one as a back up weapon.

There is a holy-water-dispensing mace called the aspergilium or something like that. I forget what book its in. Minimal additional cost, the first few hits after a refill do the extra damage of the holy water (or whatever else you put in it)

BTW, everyone sorry i am not postinfg as much right now. I've hit a crazy spot at work, which will probably last another week or so.

DM Matt,

Do you want me to lock down Day 1's thread. I think we're all done with it.
