[LPF] Coils of Flame

[Maidhc O Casain]

GM: Just need to know if Ellamin and Heinrich are moving in or hanging out where they are. I know DeWar's had some issues that've prevented him from chiming in regularly, so if he hasn't responded by the time sunshadow does I'll do something with him.

 

[Scott DeWar]

OOC: *chime*

Heinrich moves forward to a more tactical location.

.. .. .. .. ..

move to D,-1 to get a good angle and still be safe away from the door.

 

[sunshadow21]

Ellamin will move in behind the others, waiting quietly to see how things unfold.

[sblock=OOC/Update]Last night was a busy one in RL. I'm not sure what tonight holds in store for me. If it's a little calmer I'll update tonight, if it's crazy busy I'll have to get to it tomorrow (Saturday) AM.[/sblock]

 

[Scott DeWar]

OOC: sigh, bummer

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

The crew comes rushing and tumbling into a vast cavern beneath the mountain. A broad pool of sputtering lava laps against the walls of this vast cavern. Through the distorting waves of heat and smoke, several rocky islands of various sizes are visible, bobbing on the steaming surface. At the southern edge of the searing pool rises an intimidating metal construct: the coiled shape of a winding snake topped with a strong humanoid torso a holding a spear. Pieces of the craggy roof frequently drop into the lava pool, splashing the liquefied rock.

Several little bitty critters are zooming around in the superheated air, and the shape of one salamander can be dimly perceived through the heat haze standing by the statue.

GM: Good Guys are up! (Bad Guys got initiative, but they's already acted and are not flat-footed).

[sblock=OOC]The heat in this room is severe - it's gotta be at least 150 degrees. Being in the room will cause 1d6 points of Fire damage per minute, w/ no save in addition to 1d4 points of non-lethal damage per 5 minutes of exposure (DC15 Fortitude save to resist, +1 DC per previous check). Heavy clothing or any armor imposes a -4 penalty to this check. Anyone immune or resistant to fire need not worry about the non-lethal damage. Apologies to those who are not immune - I've quite forgotten to impose these checks and damages through the adventure

I'm gonna try using Ditzie for the mapping on this one. I've got all the players in place and labelled with ToolTips - please indicate the target of any attacks by name. If you can't tell who's who on the map, the zoom on your browser will make it all bigger and clearer.

Ditzie works like this:

Basic Use

SK and I were apparently editing the map at the same time. Here's the one with the current conditions on it. I didn't put in a condition for Haste since all of you are. I set Ellamin to about half opacity to represent his invisibilty.

Updated Map

EDIT: Mephit 03 missed the AoO vs. Arianna/Teq

 

[jackslate45]

Anaerion's mind races, and tries to make sense of everything that is going on now. With Arianna so far away, his original plan was no longer going to work. However, he still had a back up plan. Speaking to in celestial, Anaerion says "Guardians of light, I ask for your aid. Now, at our time of need, evil stands in our path. Please, allow you divine light to shine through them, and destroy all that they are!"

[sblock=Actions]

GM: Preparations made . . . let's see how much good they do From here it looks like a really big statue of a Salamander. You can't really see it well enough through the heat haze, smoke and steam to tell for sure from where you are, though. Next?
