Warlocks Flee the Scene solo?

which brings up a question for me.

Anyone with the book, what does it say that the image does? Does it 'act normally'? or something like that?

Since, apparently, acting normally for your character is to get away at this point in time.. so should he try to book it out of there? What if he stops on your newly arrived square? ;)

'fraidy image ;p

If you think that's fun, think on this piece:



So:

#1)Warlock uses Flee the Scene, and touches a friend to come along.
#2)Enemy sees Warlock touch ally, ally disapear.
#3)Illusion of Warlock continues to act like the Warlock normally does for one round, possibly even "taking (fake) actions"..
#4)Meanwhile the real Warlock is standing someplace else, unable to take any further actions that round.
At which point, the ally picks up the warlock, and runs with him for his action.
 


"The image reacts appropriately to attacks as if you were concentrating on it." So it need not run away per se. It also states the image is left behind in your place, which need not mean it has to stay there - but I'm playing it as such anyway.

I do too, I just think the thought is funny ;)

Sorry, but you can't do that.

Picking a fellow PC up is probably a Standard action. Running is a full round action.
 

retrieving something from a pack and picking up an item are moves action and yet picking someone up who wants to be picked up is standard action? I disagree ;)

In fact, I would likely allow it as 'part' of a move action. Pick them up and move at the same time by making them hop a little into your arms or something.

Of course, as being part of a move action one couldnt make the run action without some extra help.. but maybe the other person didnt mean the run action so much as getting away quickly.. crazy real world terms vs game rules.. :cool:
