[OOC] House Millithor in City of the Spider Queen

[Endur]

Kilcif, Jena, and Matron Ki'Willis believe that Laral is extremely nervous and distracted by something he didn't expect.

The cage is about forty feet long by thirty feet wide by twenty feet high, so Dariel could levitate up 20 feet. If he wanted to go any higher, he would have to exit the cage (by either destroying the cagebars or leaving through the entrance).

 

[Seonaid]

So much for Narcelia's thought that they are honorable. A Good paladin is more likely to wipe us out just because. If the fight goes badly (in either direction), we're toast. I think that "cheating" would be expected (and perhaps not looking upon too poorly), given the nature of the arena and given the nature of drow. The idea of getting a cohort in there increases our odds immensely (well, some anyway), but I don't know that it would make us look all that good. "Yeah, sure, we'll fight you, but we suck, so can we maybe have some help?"

I think we definitely should try a dispel before the fight. There are ways to conceal the fact that it's us (having it cast from somewhere else in the area, etc.), and there are enough people who bet on Dariel that it's possible, though highly unlikely, that it wasn't us.

Is there time to find out if Endur has any weaknesses? Something useful, like if you taunt him he goes into a blind rage, etc.?

 

[Seonaid]

Also, is there any way to find out if the dwarves are planning on sending someone else in there if the fight looks like it might be going badly for them? I take it that's not against the rules, and it would be helpful to prepare for that, if necessary.

 

[Brother Shatterstone]

Just to clarify, when I was suggestion the cohort I was thinking like 2 on 2.

 

[Xael]

Dariel still has a chance to win. Small. But still. I propose surrendering if the fight seems to go really bad. It's a paladin! He wouldn't kill an unarmed man, would he?

But I certainly know one dwarf that's not going to live very long. Quertus doesn't like being cheated...

 

[Thels]

Uhh, Shatterstone, I hope you don't mean having the cohort levitate, cuz I can't do that... I think.

 

[Brother Shatterstone]

Nope you can't, I think your levitation comes from the house insignia. I don’t have one, and I’m not going to get one.

Which means that was some nice Nite-Quil I was on last night.

what the hell was I thinking... apparently not much.

 

[Brother Shatterstone]

In my moment of lucid thought, as I'm in between doses, what about talking them into having an two archer, one from both sides of the bet, staged on outside of the cage….

Okay not the best idea I’ve ever had….

 

[Thels]

Uhh, how serious do you want me dead? His armor's way better than mine, meaning I'm just taking extra damage.

I figure to have him dead by then... If you don't want to play "trust me" I guess we won't.
