[QUOTE="WayneLigon, post: 2236969, member: 3649"] He's a spellcaster. Doesn't matter if he's three levels or ten levels above you, he still has 1d4+con HP, which makes him a farmer in robes to the rest of you. Cook dinner one night and dose him the most powerful poison you can find. Preferably one that drops his Int - if it goes low enough -- no spells for you, buddy - or his Con. When he gets up in the early morning to use the bushes, jump him and garotte him. No voice, no spells. Proceed to stab as usual. The next time he uses the mask, turn and bash him in the face with a spiked mace the second it leaves him or grab the thing and prevent it's return. Or sunder it. Silence 15' Radius. 'Nuff said. Drygulch him then when he can't cast (or use the command word for the item if it has one). Hold Person is another good one. He still has to sleep at night. Insta-coup-de-gras with an icepick in the ear, rattlesnake in his sleeping blanket, brain eating grubs in his pillow. Whatever. Cliffs. A horse-riding 'accident'. Not many people can cast spells well when they have a half-ton of dying horse thrashing about on them. Mage-bane blades. Catch him with a mouthfull of peanut butter or something. I'm serious! Try to twist the workings of the universe when you have a mouth full of something to eat and see what happens. All you need is one round and you all, working together, can probably do enough damage to kill him. Pool together a bunch of gold and tithe it to your Local Church What Likes To Kill Mages and give them his current whereabouts. Poisoned sea urchin in his bathtub. Get a rogue to forge the mage's handwriting and signature. Send a message along the lines of 'Old fool! I, the Mage of the Mask of Death, have decided that your arcane library shall soon be mine. I fear not your obviously overblown reputation. Power belongs to those who can weild it best and that is I. Compose your will. And clean up the place, I want it to be nice when I step over your enfeebled corpse and move in.' Send this the the A-Number-One badass wizard you know. Do not stick around in the same location as your buddy. Whip your GM with a bicycle chain for giving anyone an insta-kill magic item. Basically, the idea is to get him into a position where his spellcasting, the only thing about him that is a threat to you, is useless. [/QUOTE]
