Message: <blockquote data-quote="pemerton" data-source="post: 6218635" data-attributes="member: 42582">That was unexpected!(At least by me.)OK.Thurgon is somewhat confused. The Lord Chamberlain has turned out to be some sort of gebbeth, but why are we fools? Because he was working with the dragon, who will succeed anyway? Because he was working with strange forces against the dragon, and now that he's been cut in two the dragon will succeed? And what's the army - an army of trolls and giants?There's no way I'm working any of that out while this troll is up and active. I'm going to cow it so that Theren can take physical control of it and Quinn can read its mind to try and work out what is going on.So first I need to get its attention: "War Troll!" I confront it with my mace, and Break Its Nerve (minor action, encounter power, it is marked by me)."I am Knight Commander of the Iron Tower. You are nothing. You can surrender now or face death!" I want to roll Intimidate with +21 (I think the troll is opposing my right of command), +7 from Lucann's buffs, for a total of +28. If more oomph is required, and the action economy permits, I will use Thunder Smite (enc attack) to underscore my threat.Intimidate roll on d20:  15, +28 = 43 Thunder Smite, if permitted/required: d20 roll of 2, +18 = 20 vs AC, +2 for enc power = 22 vs AC which isn't going to add much oomph to anything!Hoping that the troll is at least somewhat cowed, Theren -  [MENTION=27570]sheadunne[/MENTION] - I hand the situation over to you to sort out the details!</blockquote>
