House Millithor in COSQ: part 4

[Pyrex]

Kilcif bends down to Carcelon as he sneers in anger and his voice is snide and full of sarcasms, “Oh yes, she obviously values you all so much! She’s hasn’t even shed a tear as she turns each and everyone of you into some form that mocks life itself.”

OOC: Not sure if it was clear above, but that's exactly the conclusion Carcelon wanted you to reach. She just wanted to lead you there instead of saying it out loud.

He backs down some not wanting to make her mad, “Lady Carcelon your position has changed, and your not as important as you where only a few days ago. I can tell you your mother is mad and insane, and your sister has survived an ordeal that she should have. I believe in luck but I know theirs no way your sister could survive the Underdark for that long without equipment and without help. Neither one of them two should be trusted and if you truly mean your words remember that I can only protect you when I have my own freewill.”

Carcelon nods and then responds;
"Yes, I quite look forward to finding out where my dear sister has been the past two weeks. She has clearly not been wandering the underdark alone and has just as clearly been returned to us by someone else.

Think on what I have said, and we will speak of this again later. At the moment I must go find Quertus."

Kilcif: Bugbear/Male (Barbarian/Ranger/Rogue)

Kilcif grunts at Carcelon dismissal and quickly retorts, “I keep it under advisory and you shouldn’t be so quick to dismiss me your mother has no need for heirs as she can rule your family for eternity now so I imagine that the youngest daughter could quickly find herself as nothing more than a reward.”

 

[Pyrex]

Carcelon replies with the barest hint of a smile;
"I should be very suprised to see the Matron outlast Irae. The candle which burns brightest burns but half as long.

As I said, I will do what I can to see that you are not again bent under the Cephalometer, but you too must do your part."

"I'd like this guy if he wasn't going to kill me", Torellan says with a grin. "He's got enough style to share.

 

[Uriel]

"And which outcome does He Who Swims In Darkness desire for this conflict? The slaying of Irae and the overthrow of her rule, or something more?"

Removing his kraken-faced helm, Kripp immitates an air-breather's shrug and says plainly 'Know not, this...Know only that forward does lie his Fate,does Kripp.To Maermydra, does Kripp go.'

The Realms Above
The Cult of the Dragon
Hidden Meeting Room

First Speaker, speaking ritualisticly "How fare the Great Ones?"
Second Speaker, answering ritualisticly"All is well. Life Eternal is Theirs."

First Speaker, "Please be seated. We have heard disturbing news. Outsiders have learned the process to create a Draco-Lich."

Third Speaker, "Blashphemy! Only the Cult of the Dragon should share this sacred knowledge with the Great ones!"

First Speaker, "Nevertheless, it is true. Unassailable sources confirm that an undead archmage in the city of Maerimydra has successfully created a Draco-Lich and is attempting to create more."

 

[Xael]

Quertus starts the preparations to face the Balor. He asks for a cold iron dagger from Torellan and Bless Weapon oil from Carcelon, and casts the following buff spells:

First, he casts Rary's Telepathic Bond, with Quertus himself, Matron, Torellan, Zieggrek and Kripp in it.

Then he casts Mage Armor, Shadow Mask and Shield on himself.

Third, he casts Magic Circle Against Evil on Zieggrek and Kilcif.

Fourth, he casts Bull's Strength at Torellan and the Bebiliths.

And finally, he casts Endurance at Carcelon and Narcelia.

Then he proceeds to wait for the Balor with others.


OOC: I just hope that the Balor doesn't have time to cast Greater Dispel Magic...

 

[Serpenteye]

The Matron orders her forces into position, the Bebiliths inside the walls in the Ethereal, the Elemental above to prepare another cave-in, gaseous vampires in the chasm, the rest of the troops arrayed behind the doors to the level.
Ziegrek, Aided by 10 vampires, are to disarm the Balor's sword in the opening move of the battle. The rest of the force shall be released a few senonds later, weaker combatants are to Aid the stronger to hit the fiend.

ooc: is this ok with everyone?

 

[Dalamar]

Torellan casts his own magic weapon on the cold iron dagger he has left, and applies the bless weapon oil (I just realised that all my threats will be automatical crits thanks to the oil )

 

[Pyrex]

After handing a Bless Weapon oil to Quertus, Carcelon casts Protection from Fire on Ziegrekk and then uses her Planar Ally scroll to summon another Bebilith
