[QUOTE="Ace, post: 813555, member: 944"] The whole sceanrio is a little odd to me. Why would a LAWFUL good paladin go it alone against an epic sorcerer anyway Lawful means orderly and Good people tend to have friends and allies Heck if I had to attack a Sorcerers tower to save the world I would bring a lot of friends, hundreds of them By the time he got to the the Sorcerers tower he would have been destroyed by epic spells anyway, at least without help IMC it would look like this Talon-- Paladin 30 I have to go, she (The sun goddess and most family oriented) has called me. Some Sorcerer is trying open an abbysal gate and they have my wife and child Kern- Paladin 20 head of the Black Gate Order You aren't going alone. I'll send a hundred of my men with Wolves and Falcons too. I'll send out the horn call we will have 10,000 or so men there in a matter of hours Itherien the Archmage Wiz20/Archmage 5/Epic 5 Take this. <hands Talon a package> I will call the council and some Element Masters too. We should have 100 Wizards of the seventh tier or greater in a few hours (Wiz 15+) Lady Sora-- I will call the Followers of the Way. Will 500 do? Tilb the Shadow Another apocolypse? A little early eh? Ah well I have some friends to send as well An'akier Many of the faithful have been gathered. We shall send tens of hundreds if they are needed and so on through a lot of people and organizations. I mean failure means possibly the end of the world so I figure a certain measure of cooperation is likely OK there will be beuracratic infighting among the lower levels but who cares they are nothing but targets anyway for that sort of thing Back to the scenario Paladin Arrives. Bad situation unfurls Talon uses quickened forcewall item to save baby- rescues wife with extra partial action and move than attacks Sorcerer with full attacks 4 of em at some obscene attack bonus Sorcerer retaliates with zappy stuff-- does only minor damage due to defense buff layering Paladin kills Sorcerer next round If by some horrible chance the Paladin fails, well there is an army ready to stop the Wizard and close the blasted gate Never go it alone!
