Strange stars: short one-shot, level 14 [dead]

[DM_Matt]

You forgot the have Rana move much further back in the room like I declared. That would also put her out of the flame strike.

Do we have any clearics with group healing capabilities? I am thinking taht we might have a problem surviving through the round without them.

DM-Matt, sorry. Your post were wrong for starters; you wanted to make a 5 foot step, then cast the spell, and then move. Not only you can´t do that, and had to go through the pond and back out of it, wich cost double, and walk two diagonals to avoid the Reverse Gravity areas.

I usually don´t bother you with such minutia, nor demand correction for every little rules mistake because that would make each round and post eternal, and anyway if you would have squeezed a square of movement, the cleric would also placed the flame strike in another way and still catch you, Torvak and Qalare.

(well, maybe Qalare shouldn´t be there, but let´s leave him there now, and I promise to triple check the moves the next round instead of double)

Well, if you had said that that was illegal, I would not have made that 5-foot step, which was less important. I have boots of Continuous Expeditious retreat, so I move at 60, not 30, so I would have had plenty of move to get through and beyond. I dont see how he could flame strike all three of us considering how far I could have went. I evn posted what I was going to say to the guard near my final position.

Startegizing: Let's not metagame If we're going to plan our escape let's do it IC. Far more fun trying to persuade a raging barbarian that the fight's a no hoper than a rational player

If he saves against my Flesh to Stone spell then I'll consider it a lost cause. It is important to know how large the palace is, as well, because I would also Dimension Door away, though the new Dimension Door allows carrying (in my case) 4 medium-sized passengers.

We should also decide which of us knew each other before we walked into this room. Of the backgrounds I've seen, Torvak is the only person I think it's likely that Qalare knew well enough to call an ally.

Well, Rana would know anyone that worked for the Caliph, beucase altohugh she's foreign, she is here to work for the caliph in a "troubleshooting" capacity as a gesture of friendship from her nation.

I think it's safe to assume that we've all met before, and probably know each others' names and general "story" (i.e. what you do for the Caliph). If you think Rana's position would put her in direct contact with Qalare (and the others) as friends instead of "that diplomat who works with the Caliph" then that would be a great link. Qalare is also foreign, though he'd probably be considered a citizen now. I was speaking more along the lines of "I should save this person because he's my friend." We're all obviously in the same boat, but IC, we don't know much about each other. That's the way I see it anyway. It would be terribly convenient for all of us to be buddy-buddy, so I'll hope we get some kind of agreement on that issue.

As far as Rashid's relationship with the Caliph he like a surrogate older brother/father figure of sorts and his liege lord whom he is very loyal too as he has been in the service of his family for around 40 years...he is basically the captain of the royal archer regime and spends most of his time training troops and teaching them new skills and trick shots. He has spent time with the caliph's son in special training him in the more potent attack forms with a bow.
I would assume I have had contact at some point or another with most of the other pc's...how much would really depend upon how open the others are...Rashid is a very friendly and generous man who believes compassion and generosity and powerful beliefs for him...but when threatened with evil our foul creatures he will relentlessly attack his enemy...

Sorry, DM-Matt. I somehow mistook "continuous" for "unlimited" (and shouldn´t have allowed the item in the first place). Consider Rana to be just north of the nearest guard; he has 16 more HP and Rashid 16 less hit points.
