Whirtlestaff's Wizards' Academy Revisited, IC01

[Scotley]

"Sounds like an excellent plan. Sleep has a nice range, so we need not get too close. I think we have to hope that even if we are spotted we'll be far enough away that the hobgoblins won't raise an alarm before we get the spells off. Good luck to you all. Give me 25 minutes as I have long way to go and then we'll start." With that Tylara double checks her gear, including the fine pinch of sand she'll need for the spell and sets off to make her way to the far side of the keep. She circles far out and sticks to cover when ever posible. At the appointed time she moves forward keeping low and closes to within 110' of the keep giving her a generous margin of error and, assuming nothing untoward happens along the way, casts the sleep spell targeting the center of the tower. As soon as this is done she moves at double speed to the point where the ladder is to be used.

OOC: Just one question: How will everyone determine when it has been 25 minutes?

 

[Scotley]

OOC: Heh, guess we aren't going to get away easy. How about this then. When Tylara is in position she will send her familiar over to see if Manny is ready. If so then the eagle will fly in a nice high wide circle around the keep. When she is over the tower Tylara is supposed to attack we all cast our spells. Good enough?

Manny

Manny will do his best to get in range for the sleep spell without being seen, and will then look for Tylara's eagle to 'give the signal.' At the signal, he'll cast the spell, mount up, and he and Kási head for the ladder.

Manny

Will you please let me know the save DC for your spell? In the future, it would help if you would all give me that information whenever you cast a spell.

[sblock=Leif]10 + 1 (Spell Level) + 5 (Int bonus) = 16. Did I figure that right? I don't play wizards as a rule . . .[/sblock]

 

[Leif]

[sblock=Mowgli]Looks right to me, unless you have a feat (like Spell Focus) or something that would add a +1 to it or so.[/sblock]

No worries, the hobgob is now snoozing peacefully.
Guard's save against Manny's sleep spell (1d20=9)

 

[Scotley]

Tylara

Ooc: Dc 15

 

[Leif]

Uh, oh, Tylara! The guard yawns, rests his chin against his chest, and then jumps up, shakes his head and roars! Tylara's spell at 2nd guard in tower (1d20-1=17) None of the other guards appear to take any notice. You may surmise that this guy does that a lot when he nods off while on guard duty.

 

[Scotley]

Tylara

Cursing softly in Elvish and Draconic, Tylara retreats and makes her way to the ladder bearing crew as they approach the wall. "Stay on the side away from my tower, the guard doesn't seem to have fallen asleep."
