OOC: House Millithor in COSQ part 3

[Endur]

Level Up!

Level up!

Everyone should now be ECL 15, with the exception of the Matron and Torellan who have a different ECLs from their templates.

Torellan is a level 11 Drow Vampire.
Matron Ki'Willis is a level 13 Drow Revenant.

Torellan has risen from the grave and is now playable.

Level up!

YEEEEESSSS!!!!!! 7th levels spells! Mordenkainen's Magnificient Mansion! Greater Teleport! Yeah!

Btw, I assume that Quertus has had a chance to do some scroll-writing. And if it's possible, he'll also let Icho to scribe some spells into his spellbook.

Scribing importance:

Quertus: Contingency, Dominate Person, Detect Scrying, Transmute Rock To Mud.

Icho: Rary's Telepathic Bond, Slow, Phantom Steed, Scorching Ray.


And, also if possible, Quertus would very much like to make some spells permanent on himself at last:

Arcane Sight, See Invisibility, Read Magic.



And of course, Quertus will proceed to Identify everything.

We have (at least): Sword of The Dales, Ring (faint Abjuration), Ring (faint Transmutation), the rapier Kilchif found. And I suppose we found somehting else too.

 

[Endur]

The answer is , yes, Quertus, has sufficient time to scribe everything on his list and to cast the permanent spells on himself.

The Sword of the Dales is an interesting magic item.

Sword of the Dales +3 steel long sword
Glows bluish
Water breathing 1/day
Knock on chains and manacles within 30’, command word “merrydale”

The Sword also qualifies as a Lich's phylactery (fully enchanted and ready to be possessed), but no soul is in the phylactery.

What!?! One Lich-wannabe here! Just tell me what Quertus needs to do.

But just why the hell was Randal Morn carrying that? Are you sure this isn't just one of your rat-bastard DM traps?

And crap, transforming into undead drained a level, didn't it? Bah, next level then...

 

[Xael]

Quertus updated, added a list of permanent spells and spells cast every morning (important, please notice Endur). Didn't hoard The Sword Of The Dales yet, if somebody really wants it. And if Icho is now Quertus' actual familiar, I should be able to Scry at him. Hmm... And Quertus' eyes now glow blue!

And Quertus is very attracted to Matron's belt. *puppy-eye-look* "Can I keep it, pleeease?"

Now I'm just waiting to know what the items we "confiscated" actually do.



And what's with the wuss dragon in the Rogue's Gallery thread?

 

[Pyrex]

Also, over the next few days, who still needs to be cured of level drains, stat drains, curses, etc?

 

[Serpenteye]

Malacarth
The Jaws of Doom

Not an easy battle, if it comes to that. If we know it's coming we could use our vampires to harry him and drain him in hit and run attacks, until he's reduced all of them to a coffin-bound state. Then it may be time to follow up with our main forces, or retreat and hope to weaken him further later.

Refresh my memory if you will. Duneth was killed by Irae Tsarran. He was the Archmage of Maerimidrya and led the rebellion against the Lolthites in the city, right? Was he allied to Kurgoth, or are the two of them enemies?

Until further notice Quertus might as well keep the belt, since the Matron has no use for it, the resale value would be horrible and Quertus needs the HPs. The Matron might want a favour or two in return, though. A Limited Wish to resore her appearance for one.

The Matron makes a claim to any liquid wealth found (which was not much), but leaves the rest of you to divide the magical treasure amongst yourselves. She's quite happy, in a morose kind of way, to have Szith Morcane back in her ownership.

What's your oppinions of using Torellan, and possibly Kiernan and Laernan, to create a small legion of vampiric soldiers from the best remaining SM-guards to be used as reusable cannon fodder in our campain in Maerimidrya? It's risky giving them that much power, but the benefits might outweigh the risks. of course, it depends on how loyal we believe they are going to be. We shall have to interfiew them first.

Btw; Reactivating L and K is the next thing on the Matron's shedule after the interrogation of the apprentice (which I assume is being performed on the day after our victory).

Also, over the next few days, who still needs to be cured of level drains, stat drains, curses, etc?

Kilcif has a nice big fat curse on him. (-6 to CON)

He also has a huge bag of items that need to be identified. (He nearly drowned for them their better be something good.)

No problem. Except that Quertus doesn't have Limited Wish yet, as I planned to take it next level. Quertus should be able to go on a speed-shopping trip now though, as he just accuired Greater Teleport.

He also has a huge bag of items that need to be identified. (He nearly drowned for them their better be something good.)

Well, Quertus has Analyze Dweomer, so he'll be happy to assist in the identification. He might want to claim some of the items though, if he spots something useful.



Endur:

Does Quertus know about the difference in difficulty of using Teleport and Greater Teleport (I've got the book, haven't really read but the start though)? I mean, he's got 105% chance to use Greater Teleport now. Hell, he could go and scout Maerimyda if he was crazy enough.

 

[Pyrex]

Not that there's a lot of change, but Carcelon has been updated in the RG.
