....jeez.
yes. i think we should have something in our hands to show them quickly and say, "we have to go".

Okay-- so, we need the prophecy... but, I think we should save it as a reinforcer if, for some reason, our bluff (we need to leave, I have what I need) somehow doesn't work.

Thoughts?

possible flawed logic here.

For the whole thing about saving throws: I thought if a subject was willing there was no need to worry about saving throws. So if the mages believe what we are telling them they should not need to roll for the save anyways.

Granted if they don't believe us... that is a whole other story...

Agreed. We need it. We don't have to use it right away, and can keep it tucked away for trouble or annoying questions.

Okay so to ask a possibly stupid question -I thought I had before.. but guess not- but about the room being designed to look like a typical room in Caer Albion.
Do we know they are from Caer Albion? --if yes, how? cuz I missed it-
Or is Caer Albion where Sulora is just dictating they should be going to?

Talon Headquarters are in Caer Albion. I believe that's why it was assumed that Caer Albion would make a good destination. Also, it's relatively easy to dummy up, because the terrain in the Capitol is so distinctive - it's a city made almost entirely of mithral and adamantine, and as such is easily visually identifiable.

This brings up another question: Are we rounding up the talons as well? And if yes, do we have any idea how many of those there are (or is a few dozen both mages and talons?)
Or are they All talon red mages no regular guard warrior type talons?

The Talon Blades, you mean? I assume that you're rounding up everyone you can find quickly and shunting them into the room o' no magic under Selura's Orders. So, obviously red mages are of the highest priority, but Blades are next on the list, with Ogre Mages last.

...Right?

I would assume the best bet is get everyone together and have them all go at once, and would seem the best for all done here lets' all go.
but gang?.....

Question two million: Was our few dozen estimate only for the red mages? if we include the blades and ogre mages are we looking at a few hnadful more -from what we can see, have seen, can estimate through someone besides the raised asking the bishop...

 

[The_Universe]

There are a few dozen Talon Redmages, and a few dozen Talon Blades. No one was sure how many Ogre magi there were - probably a lot. So, your calculations were just for Redmages.

Hope that helps.

The Ogre magi are really the least of my worries-- they are annoying... but evil and relatively easy to kill.
