[QUOTE="darkbard, post: 9173627, member: 1282"] [I]As the silver blade hurtles towards him, [B]CHANVATI [/B]reaches out with his mind to telekinetically halt its flight. Then he draws out the flow of time in a shimmering haze, clouding his presence from the githyanki and dragon both as he steps, in slow motion, to the side. The gith's blade passes harmlessly through where he had just been standing a split second ago. When his form is no longer clouded in their minds, the Merchant-Prince speaks, "Madnessbreaker may be my destiny, Ishka. That is foretold. But such is not the limit of my power or accomplishments. Space and time are mine to command! Come, let us make treaty now and calculate our next steps together against our common foe."[/I] [HR][/HR] Chanvati makes a Primary Skill Arcana check to pause telekinetically the flight of Ishka's blade while he, Chanvati, uses Mind Shroud to hide his presence and move out of the path of the blade, r(5) +15 +2 bonus from Mind Shroud =22 vs 20 Moderate DC. Success. Having staved off immediate combat or the beginning of the ritual resulting in a githyanki invasion of our world (!), Chanvati intends that the next step be to ally with Ishka and Kushka-varra against their mutual foe in Caiphon. I can see that alliance taking multiple possible forms: joining forces here in the material world and continuing to Bantouk to confront whatever power behind the Empress's throne (perhaps she, herself!) has become corrupted by Caiphonian taint; or agreeing to bring the fight to Caiphon in our separate realms (we, here in the Material, the githyankis on the Astral Plane), knowing that the Insanityclad is weakened in fighting potent foes across multiple fronts. Or maybe something else, if you think Ishka may have other designs? [/QUOTE]
