[OOC] House Millithor in City of the Spider Queen

[Thels]

Sure you can summon any of the creatures on the list.

You can summon a Dire Rat, a Wolf, a cavvekan, or something similar. Note that there are no templates for Summon Nature's Ally. The templates are for the Summon Monster spells.

Wolf is fine

 

[Xael]

I'm not certain, since Illithids are not in the SRD, but I think they get Dominate as a spell like ability.

They don't, at least in my Monster Manual. Only Charm Person which is a lot worse.

Or then I just need new glasses.

 

[Endur]

Charm Monster, Suggestion, Detect Thoughts, Mind Blast, other stuff in the Monster Manual(3.5).

A leveled Mind Flayer can have Dominate. There are several versions of Dominate in the Psionics handbook.

They don't, at least in my Monster Manual. Only Charm Person which is a lot worse.

Or then I just need new glasses.

 

[Endur]

The Amazing Monstrous Fiendish Spider, for his first trick will roll a 20 on his to hit roll against Endur. He failed to confirm the critical, and Endur passed the first poison saving throw he will have to make (Endur will have to make another poison save in 10 rounds).

The Spider did 13 points of damage (d8 +3 +smite good 6) - some amount of DR.

Endur swung three times in a full attack. The first two attacks hit easily and did 42 points of damage (bypassing the Spider's DR). The third attack also hit, but only because the spider was in negative hit points by then. The third attack knocked the spider past -10.

The Jump Skill in 3.5 is different from 3.0. The white wolf rolled really high on his jump check, but it was not quite enough to bite Dariel. If the wolf had been wearing a chain shirt instead of plate barding, Dariel might have been bitten.

 

[Xael]

An excellent idea, Quertus. I shall follow your advise

Whew. Now let's just hope it works, and preferably before Dariel is toast (don't go down, damn you!).

 

[Thels]

I got 5 ranks in tumble, so fighting defensively should give me -4 to hit, +3 AC, kicking it to 26 for what it's worth.

I doubt Endur being a favored enemy of Dariel will matter much in this case.

 

[Seonaid]

Hopefully quite a bit!

Ok, let's say Endur's a 12th level paladin with a str of 20 and +2 weapon (not really that much). He has an attack bonus of about +20 for his first attack, and can do about 21 damage with one hit.

Don't go near him! The stoneskin doesn't help against friggin' adamantite (though I'm not sure if Dariel knows that...).

 

[Thels]

Yeah, and I think my attack can have it. It'll be +18/+14/+13/+9 now. Perhaps I should add Combat Expertise next level...

Oh wait, I forgot the armor spell, so it's total AC 27, not 26.

 

[Endur]

With Dariel not having any ranks in Knowledge Arcana or Spellcraft, I'm going to rule that Dariel doesn't "know" that adamantine can cut through stoneskin (unless Quertus or somebody with Knowledge Arcana or Spellcraft tells him). Also, without any skill ranks in Alchemy, Knowledge Arcana, or Spellcraft, Dariel might not recognize the weapon or armor as being made out of adamantine.

Dariel would know that adamantine is a very tough material, which makes a weapon made of Adamantine difficult to sunder. It also makes a weapon of adamantine useful for sundering steel weapons.

Carcelon has the skillset to recognize Endur's armor and weapon materials and she could message him to warn him if she wants to.

The stoneskin doesn't help against friggin' adamantite (though I'm not sure if Dariel knows that...).
