Well, that was an interesting evening!

Oh, and it was D8+2. I can appreciate how you might think it was lower given the way I was rolling, but still...

I'm dreadfully sorry, wouldn't want to diddle you out of that priceless HP of damage. :p

I've got polymorph any object now - sure I can turn some rubbish into a new holy symbol for you. What does pelor use? Is it a sun with some tentacles reaching out of it? :uhoh:

VOP is for wimps! Think you also need quite a number of exalted feats as pre requisites - you got any?

Sure we'll get it all back, can't have taken us more than 3 months to build back up from the last gear stripping... :)

That is one Rat Bastardly work of art. I almost got a little misty when you mentioned that you paralyzed the Paladin while they were all in an anti-magic field. Beautiful.

I have several exalted feats my friend and easily qualify however since you can't backdate some of the benefits and the fact that I wanna stick it to the Drow with me blades of doom, I won't!
 

In the game I play in my 15th level eldritch knight is going without equipment. Got myself bludgeoned unconscious and captured to talk to the bad guys and find out what was going on. Turns out they were not bad guys but the people I was helping out were secretly demonic and had duped me into aiding them.

So I find this out as I'm tied, upside down, and hanging from a tree with my stuff in a pile, which it turns out the demonists had secretly put a magical tracer on and they ported in revealing that one of them is a bane demon Vrock with bard levels and potent, disguise, glibness, and charm spells.

The demons taunt me with their deception and anounce their imminent plans to kill me as they have no more use for me after I led them to their enemies. I have like 3 hp above subdual unconsciousness and only my long lasting spells going. I kill one of the bad guys with a fire orb as the fight rages but bad luck results in almost all my new allies dieing but I rolled a twenty on the strength check to bust out of the ropes.

Luckily the bad guys didn't know I had energy buffer and a contingency Anavar's Anticipated Attack and I managed to grab my spellbook, component pouch, and familiar and teleport out just as I was covered in a warlock acid gout, the buffer giving me a round to get off the port before I went unconscious. I've been doing hit and run on them since then, taking them out one by one with the two biggest baddies still to go.

Things I lost

White robes of the archmage (now worn by high UMD warlock).
bastard sword +3 (now wielded by Vrock)
Boots of flying
Ring of protection +4
ring of evasion
gloves of deflection (3.0 version)
Headband of intellect +6 (newly upgraded)
and a few others.

I think the warlock ported to a city and sold the headband, which really sucks.

It's been a blast.
 

As a solo 15th level character with no equipment, it was a tough on the edge challenge going against a bunch of empowered shadows and ghasts the demonic priestess had created. I'm not even sure I will get xp for the encounter though.
 

Kudos for GM'ing the Drow in such a manner. They should always be that cruel, The wizard should count himself lucky that he recieved a quick death for insulting a Priestess of Lolth, especially from a Male prisoner.
Then again, you could reanimate the fallen wizard (Zin-Carla) and have the Priestess send him looking for the escapee ;) .
Sounds like a fun evening, wish I was there.

It's not that big a surprise in analysis: A level 18 party would probably function as if they were a good four levels lower than normal. The Truly Horrid UH is a CR 14 creature, and with the element of surprise (and I'd imagine they'd expended some resources just getting down that deep) and the paralyzed front-line fighter, it's not hard to imagine a TPK out of it.

On the other hand, they did manage to survive, and WHAT A TALE TO TELL! :)

I'd say lower due to the lack of front-line fighter and anti-magic zone. What good is a mage in such a situation, or a sorcerer? Heck, even a cleric isn't that useful when the blows start falling and having no way to buff.
