[OOC] House Millithor in City of the Spider Queen

maybe i am wrong but since Narcela can't ride i would asume she has no use for any of those.

(From the SRD)
Check: Typical riding actions don’t require checks. You can saddle, mount, ride, and dismount from a mount without a problem.

You don't need the ride skill to be able to ride a trained mount. Even if you're mounted when combat begins you can either dismount or make untrained checks to control the mount during combat.

Speaking of which, Endur, is the black unicorn 'War Trained'?

 

[Endur]

After further review, I've discovered that the Black Unicorn is actually quite a bit different from the regular Unicorn.

Combat stats are almost identical.

Supernaturalwise, the Black Unicorn only has two abilities: the inflict Minor Wounds 3/day I mentioned previously and the ability to Teleport without Error 1/day (carrying the rider).

The Black Unicorn counts as "war trained".

Are the other abilities similarly reversed or just not present?
--Cure Moderate 1/day -> Inflict Moderate
--Detect Evil -> Detect Good
--Magic Circle vs Evil -> Magic Circle vs Good
--Neutralize Poison -> Poison

 

[Endur]

You could always select the flying carpet if you don't want a mount.

how big are those things? Aniway I'll take it. This is the first time i ever saw one of those things appear in a game, can't miss the chance.

... and the ability to Teleport without Error 1/day (carrying the rider).

Does the B.U's Tpw/oE ability have the same "within its home" restriction that the standard unicorn does?

 

[Endur]

No restriction on where you can teleport to.

Are "Join our group and follow our orders." or "Join us in our trip to Maermyda and help us in all ways possible to gain control of the city." plausible commands to be used with Lesser Geas?

And just how far away are the headquarters of L'Tar'annen de’l Elgluth and Maermyda from Mantol-Derith?

 

[Endur]

The HQ of L'Tar'annen de'l Elgluth is about half way inbetween Maermydrya and Mantol-Derith.

Each is at least a week away from the other.

(I'm out of town right now and not looking at my campaign notes ... I'll have a more specific answer, as well as an answer on Lesser Geas later. My basic feeling is that the second order is better as a Lesser Geas. Geas/Lesser Geas is basically similar to a wish spell, except that instead of Magic producing some effect, the listener feels a compulsion and can decide somewhat how to respond to the compulsion.)

It is? That certainly changes things. I was under the impression that it was in Maermydra. Ok time for a new plan.
Step 1: Let the balor have Maermydra...
