[QUOTE="William Ronald, post: 468513, member: 426"] The Castle Brawl: A Combatant's Perspective I shall begin with some of my take on the events of the castle brawl. To begin with, the characters were teleported by a bored noble/wizard to determine who would rule a distant outpost in his name. None of the characters had time for preparation spells. Sadly, there were fewer players than anticipated, which adversely impacted some of my plans. I chose my character's initial location to be on a roof to gain a good view of the scene. (Specifically, the small peaked roof on the right side of the castle.) Immediately, my wizard cast a spider climb (after not spotting anyone) and waited to cast an invisibility spell on himself. He also cast a see invisibility shortly later. He tracked down the barbarian fighter played by Halma and tried to cast a Dominate spell. To my surprise, the character made his will save. My wizard retreated back to the roof. The barbarian, using a ring of invisibility, decided to climb from an opposing angle and land on the roof. Sadly for Halma, his character was hit by an ennervation by my character. His character lost two levels and began to slide down the edge of the roof. Hanging on for dear life, Halma's character fell onto a flag pole. (The injury may have qualified his character for the Eunuch Warlock prestige class.:D ) He fell further and retreated for a little while Unfortunately, Doc Moriarity's Sorceror and I had spotted each other. I hit his character with a fireball from my wand of fireballs, in a manner to negate his 90 percent cover from a parapet. (Cast it into the parapet to do this in your games.) Unfortunately, his character was hasted and I was hit by several rays from his wand of ennervation. (Not in the DMG, but it should be.) Although I was able to cause a little more damage, my character ultimately fell to the ennervations. I should leave it to Halma, DocMoriarity and Mark to continue this tale. I was an observer for the rest of the battle, although I did try to help speed up play. Overall it was fun, although my character was the first to fall. [/QUOTE]
