And so, when the scene "reboots" and begins to play out once again--the abbot with his uncaring threats; the knights with weapons and might to back them up; the gathered layfolk, unwilling to intercede--he steps forward and speaks."Good Teyolían People," he cries out, "can you not see the vile designs your spiritual leader intends? Are you so weak and cowed by the authority of the unjust that you will stand by to allow the wicked free reign to work their evil upon the innocent? You outnumber these warriors ten to one, and yet you see yourselves as powerless, a collection of impotent individuals instead of a community united to protect one of their own!"Ibhea looks up, and Arunny gives him a genuine smile, one that fills him further with confidence."The Radiant Goddess Omthala can be a cruel mistress at times, the magnitude of her light brooking no shadows in which to hide from responsibility. But that very light does also sear away the darkness that besets those without fear to do what is right. Resist these messengers of false spirits! Stand by your fellow, and save her children!"[HR][/HR]Ibhea is utilizing Beguiling Tongue (Encounter Power; +5 to next Bluff, Diplomacy, or Intimidate check) and is further bolstered by Arunny's Group Diplomacy racial feature (+1 to ally Diplomacy checks within 10 squares) for his Primary Skill Diplomacy check (untrained!), r(6) +7 +5 +1 = 19 vs 17 Moderate DC. Success.</blockquote>
