Thanks for Pitlording, this will be ... interesting to say the least.
Plan: Let them kill each other and then sort stuff out
Buffing: Round 1: Owen delays till after Nest if Owen acts first - Nest: Invis Sphere (all 3); Owen: fly Round 2: If Krack has gone invisible go with Owen: See invis; Otherwise Owen and Nest will move towards the middle of the arena sticking together (to keep Invis Sphere up). I don’t want to be in the middle of the action, but I want to be able to strike if/when one of them goes down. If they go after each other, just move over to where their fight is and let them slug it out, and have Owen and Nest move into range of their medium distance spells.
Mode 1: Magic Jar If both Valen and Krack head in the direction of Owen and Nest. When they get close I’m assuming Touchsight, so Nest will cast Magic Jar and attempt to possess one of them (Can’t determine one way or the other.) Owen will pick up the Soul Gem from Nest’s body and stay close to the host. After Nest casts, Owen will dispel the closer of the targets (G. Dispel on Krack, normal on Valen). If possession works go as follows: - Possess Valen: Owen throws down his other dispel then Nest Drops the Greatsword, charges and attempt to Grapple, she will not attempt to use HiPS. After that Full attack/beatdown Krack with Owen supporting with MM support. If Krack goes down, Nest will fly down to Owen, hand over the sword, and then Owen will perform a CDG on Valen. If Krack knocks Valen out, then Nest will try to posses Krack and go from there. - Posses Krack: Owen uses other dispel on Valen, Nest will get into the area and attempt to break the Eversmoking Bottle, psi crystal or Hit Valen if the eversmoking bottle is getting in the way.
If Nest Gets kicked out of the host due to suppression then attempt to possess the other. If she is kicked out of both bodies she returns to her own.
Mode 2: Dispel and EBT Through dispels (target boots if needed) try to get one or both of them on the ground. If that happens Drop Black Tentacles (Owen) on that target, followed by a bunch of other spells. Owen will recall and cast another Dispel (pop3) if it is the only target left. Krack: Ray of Enfeeblement, Ray of Exhaustion, Psy Turmoil, MMx2 Valen: H. Laughter (use both if needed), MMx2, RoEnfeeble if only one left Recall MM w/ Owen if needed, or ready Scorching Ray for EBT ending (pending Spell levels and flow of combat.)
Mode 3: SM6 By this point there should be one of them left, if not … I’m in trouble. If they are both grounded: Summon a C. Polar Bear, If they are still airborne go for 1d4+1 Lantern Archons and blast away.
Wraith: Wriath’s primary function is to keep Owen and Nest alive, so … cast Aid when needed. Otherwise after Magic Jar gets into full swing, he can use light rays to attack whoever. Go after Quartz if no other target presents itself. If I get the chance … go ahead and try to get a continual flame cast on Valen’s sword, or armor, or face.
Nest Goes down: Lantern Archon Barrage If Nest goes down she will try to stabilize w/ Auto-Hypnosis. If Both Krack and Valen are still up. Owen will shift more defensive. Use fly to get altitude, and then dispel fly/metamorph spells (target the person if possible) Then try to keep the MM damage up and help the person winning. Altitude is to prevent charges. If still in Magic Jar tactics: switch EBT to a SM5 for 1d3 L. Archons and Go straight to SM6 as well. Switch out Psy Turmoil for Haste on all of them and have them work on making full attacks. I would rather get SM5, SM6, and Haste than for Owen to have some offensive casting spell options. If casting both SM5&6, The lantern Archons that appear in the first round, will all cast Continual flame on themselves to help remove shadows if Valen is still around, or Aid if Kracknol is around.
Notes: - If I get double teamed, then have Owen use his D. Door to get some distance away (300ish ft horizontal) and some altitude (+50ft vert above highest altitude opponent) - All Summons are augmented, there is a link for the L. Archons in the CEF thread, but I don’t think there is one for the Polar Bear. - The remaining Pearls of Power are useable for damage spells like Magic Missile or Scorching Ray if I get it off. - Rough spell list is below, but needs to be a bit flexible. It gets really ugly around the ‘Nest Goes down’

Hi Templer10, thanks for pitlording during the holiday season.
Fight Setup: Begin with Greatsword and a potion of Silence in hand, Quartz will be in a pocket. Begin in square closest to the center of the map.
Brief Summary: Buff, teleport in, swing sword alot.
Round by Round Start: 1st Round: Drink potion of silence. Move 30' towards the center while hiding within the smoke from the eversmoking bottle. 2nd Round: Manifest Touchsight. Continue moving and hiding towards Owen.
Main Tactics: If OWen is not flying, dimension door (7pp) adjacent to him.
The following round, if he still is on the ground and within a 5' step: Full Attack Hasted melee. Use the last iterative attack to attempt to trip him. If Owen is still on the ground and within a 60' single move: Manifest Hustle (5pp), activate Haste and move to melee range, and full attack. If Owen is beyond a single move, but within charging range, charge him (with haste if necessary to reach).
If Owen is flying, stow greatsword and draw +1 bow. Keep taking a single move closer and reading to fire upon casting from Owen. If within 220', use 2pp
to increase damage on these shots by 2d6.
If Kracknol seems to be heading for Valen, and gets within charging range (and Valen isn't in melee with Owen) ready an action to manifest entangling
ectoplasm (3 pp if he's large or 5 pp if he's huge) on Kracknol once he's within range.
Use hasted hide in plain sight spring attack kiting. After about 2 rounds of this, manifest Chameleon (3pp) and continue Hide in Plain sight spring attack
kiting. (Use haste for this as long as it lasts). If he takes a ready action, draw a javelin in one hand (holding sword in the other) on that turn and
move, then the next throw it at him, then move (drawing another javelin). If continues to just ready an action, continue with this. If not, go back to
spring attack kiting.
Backup Tactic: Swing sword or shoot people with bow.
Modifications: 1) Hide within the smoke or opponent's shadows whenever possible. 2) Use any AoOs provoked by Owen to trip him. If he's standing up, deal damage (since you can't trip him in that case). 3) If possible (doubtful but you never know) try to keep Owen between Valen and Kracknol. 4) Reapply touchsight after Owen goes down if it was dispelled.
Important Notes: Don't forget smoke effects. Also, in order to speak for spell casting, I'm pretty sure you can't be holding your breath.

A dwarf who merely comes within 10 feet of unusual stonework can make a Search check as if he were actively searching, and a dwarf can use the Search skill to find stonework traps as a rogue can.

Rith – false life is a personal only spell so I had it done on nest
Own delays for nest. Nest casts Invisibility sphere around all three of them. Owen casts Fly.
Valen begins with potion of silence and greatsword. Valen drinks potion of silence and moves 30 forward towards center and hides (19 – spot impossible)
I suspect iam going to have to improvise a bit here – Valen have no tactics to how to fins owen when he's invisible exept stumbling on him with touchsight, Owen completely ignored the smoke and him not able to find Valen and no one though about what to do if kraknol simply wont show up to the fight So for owen ill have to go with the AOE spells (or similar effects) first then possibly single target spells/summons if he find anything to cast at. Valen will have to find owen and then go melee/bow depends if owen will be flying then
Owen Doesn’t see valen but he does see the cloud of Smoke And he assumes valen is in there So he thinks that Nest can attempt to magic jar valen if he really is in that smoke when they get closer to it so he and company moves closer to the smoke cloud moving at nests speed.
Valen manifests touchsight He wants to move towards owen – unfourtently owen is invisible so he moves towars owen's starting squere – smoke fills 50 feat around him note valen can't see anything exept for the touchsight due to smoke
owen and company single move closer to smoke, nest casts Magic jar Note that there are only 2 life forces near, a weak one (wraith) and a much stroneger one he assumes is owen.
Valen double move closer to owen's starting squere only moving 45 (to stay whitin smoke) While still hiding in it. Smoke fills again 50 feet around valen
Owen delays so the smokes edge get closer and into nest's range.
Nest delay.
Valen double moves closer (45) towards owen starting squere, smoke fills again 50 feet radius around valen.
Owen acts – he have seen the Smoke's Edge get closer and the new middle of it is in his range so he casts EBT on the middle of it with valen in there – grapple made, 8 dmg. Nest sense a new powerfull life force enter's his range acts and he attempts to posses it (valen) – Valen fails the Save, Nest in valens body can't speak due to silence so he can't make the bottle stop smoking but He simply lets the EBT Kill valen.

Hirumajoe – one crappy roll lost it for you – a few comments – something you don’t seem to notice is that in Larger maps the bottle can be a hinderence sometimes – it marks where you are so can be targeted by AOA spells and since you can't see out of it – you are essentially blind beyond touchsight range which means it will take you a while to find enemies, Especially when you want to stay hidden (As you did here) – also – see prison violations.

Rennae, despite her cheery appearance, had long served as a last line of defence for her caravan of halfling artisans. Little did she know that, during a trip to Gladius which promised so much profit, the caravan would be attacked by roaming bandits while Rennae was showing off her latest piece of sculpture to an interested Gladian nobleman. The caravan had the appaling luck to be attacked in an area where the Nimbus had failed. They weren't coming back. Rennae swore to avenge her caravan, but she knew she had to become stronger before she could face an entire bandit troop on her own. So she turned to the one place in Gladius where you can get combat training and get paid for it: the Arena.
Sorry about this; I wasn't supposed to have any gladiators fighting this week, but Rennae got held over.
Sewers? Start with Touchsight, then single-move & ready 5pp Energy Missile (Fire)s. If Fire is ineffective, switch to Cold. Once he's located, move away and take cover where available, but maintain either LOS or Touchsight. Blast each round. 18d6 damage should do it. Hope it goes quickly, and thanks for pitlording this close to Christmas.

An elf born out of his element, Ialgo was born in the harsh realms of the Kiari Desert - just south of the wastelands in a little known nomadic community. Mostly followers of the Elemental Influences, it is of no surprise that this is the focus Ialgo took upon his own life - focusing mostly on the elements of Air and Fire.
He did not leave the Kiari Desert until an adult and then started a pilgrimage around the world - visiting reaches as far as the north pole and the Elven Realm in his travels. He is merely passing through Gladius, where he has heard of much going on and is intensely interested in how the elements balance themselves in such a bustling city.
Ialgo focuses mostly on the aspects of air in his practices and uses fire to temper the winds he summons with warmth. For this purpose, his Spiritual Weapons take the form of Rapiers over Battleaxes.
About the Followers of the Elemental Influences: Followers of the Elemental Influences are not really centered around a single god, but are more focused on the influences and balance of the four elements. Clerics of the disposition tend to focus on two particular elements and sometimes focus on opposing elements because of their inherent balance.
Ethos of the followers can sometimes be misconstrued as chaotic in nature, mostly due to the preconceived notion that elemental forces are chaotic at their roots (for instance the destructive and sudden nature of powerful winds (air), forest fires (fire), earthquakes (earth) and water dangers (waves, tsunamis and such) (water). The reality however is that followers are very focused on balance and are not all that afar from druids in their beliefs.
Followers of the Elemental Influences tend to don garb that is fashioned after their favored elements - forging together colors of air, water, earth and fire in tune with their beliefs. The holy symbols of such followers are also iconic images of the four elements - usually a combination of the two chosen by the follower.
Followers of the Elemental Influences can choose two of the four elemental domains. Rare followers sometimes pick from among the following: Destruction, Weather, Strength or Sun - but always have at least one Elemental domain.
The favored weapon of a follower of the elemental influences varies by the elements chosen. Air: Rapier, Fire: Battleaxe, Earth: Warhammer, Water: Trident. Once a particular follower has chosen one type of favored weapon, that weapon will always appear for conditions that call for it (spiritual weapon)
Buffs and Prefight actions: Bring Whisp-of-Light-Wind (CR1, commanded Air Elemental) Bring Burning-Ember (CR1, commanded Fire Elemental)
Tough fight for Ialgo here - but its bound to happen.
Start off at the clockwise corridor next to the dry square leading out of the starting area with my wand of produce flame in hand.
Burning-Ember and Whisp-of-Light-Wind will start behind me and above me respectively.
In round 1, use the wand and move out. The elementals should follow me - Whisp staying at the ceiling and 20ft in front of me; Burning-Ember staying 20ft behind me.
Continue moving out until Rennae is found with the elementals always at that distance away.
Once Rennae is found, start throwing flames at her and order the elementals to attack. If she is in range of sound burst on first sight - cast it before sending the elementals in.
Special - if I do cast sound burst and if Rennae fails her save and had a dorje in hand - Whisp will do a fly-by and pick up the dorje and move away immediately.
Contingencies: 1. If I am approached by a construct of some sort - have the elementals engage it and throw flames until it goes down. 2. If I am engaged by multiple constructs within 15ft - cast Burning hands from memory on them. Use produce flames to finish them off if needed.
Refresh produce flame from the wand as needed.
I'm really not sure about this one. Rennae has a lot of options to choose from - and energy missile is just going to tear through me and my elementals...
Round 4 Whispering wind moves in towards Reanne and attacks but misses. Ialgo follows and triggers Reannes readied energy missile(using focus to manifest defensively). Burning Ember moves also closer. Reanne steps away from the elemental and shoots another missile which easily kills of the elf.

Hello whitebaron, thanks for pitlording this fight.
Altair is by far the worst enemy I could pick, so this fight will be pretty hard for the lucky gnome.
Altair got an excellent array of options.. luckily I can see two countermeasures to his main tactics: 1) The dorje and almost all his attack powers requires to be within 60'. Just stay out of that range (Hide is your friend) 2) Astral constructs are nasty, but they can't harm if they can't hit. Pump out the AC and avoid being flanked
However Uranedal also needs to do some damage, if he wants to win the fight.. here's what I came up with: 1) Start near the beloved L-shaped wall (either one, it's not really important). As usual, greataxe in hand BUT no mage armor in the other one. Use Reduce Person (CL 2, duration 20 rounds) instead. Free action: drop greataxe. SA: Cast Reduce MA draw Expeditious retreat scroll.
2) Cast Spectral hand (memory, CL 3, 30 rounds). If I hear something from him, move to another point with cover staying hidden.
3) Cast Expeditious retreat (CL 1, 10 rounds). At this point my speed would be 50 ft for 10 rounds. It's time to look for Altair staying hidden. Remember that I want to avoid his cristal shards, so I won't never get closer that 110 ft (60 range, 45' Altair move action if skating). Lisca will still share my square, so I should have a decent Listen and Spot check. Furthermore being reduced give me an Hide check of +11. Move silently increases to +3 due to higher Dex. Distance should help. Luckily I don't have to care about a psicrystal.
4) Once I find out where Altair his, Touch of Idiocy through spectral hand. My touch attack would be +3, so I have 50% chance to hit him. Keep attacking in the following rounds if I miss. Every time I use the spectral hand he will see a glowing thing going towards him, so that will likely reveal my position. Move out hiding to another point with cover. As I read the LoE thing, you still have LoE when you have anything beside full cover. I can hide with half cover, though. Touch of Idiocy is useful to cut his will save and hopefully make him useless. If I roll a 6, he wouldn't be able to use anything except his dorje. I don't know how it could affact pp though.
5) Now.. here the tactic can take 2 different roads, depending if he summons an Astral Construct or not. He can summon a level 2 construct with 50 ft base movement which is able to reach me easily with a charge. Don't give him the chance to have a straight line. If he is able to summon Astral Constructs take the Mage Armor-Shield buffing routine. I suppose I could draw a scroll while moving (just as you do with weapons) but if I can't just take a double move (hidden) before drawing-casting to avoid being hit by the Astral thing unbuffed.
If he can't/won't summon the Thing, just electrify him with Shocking Grasp. Melee touch attack here is +6 (thanks to his Mithral Shirt). I got 3 scrolls. Remember, keep range.(110 ft) If those aren't enough to kill him, use Magic Missile. If he his still alive try to get close to him (Hidden, as usual) and Color Spray him. Should I fail, I'm probably doomed.
Even if he summoned Astral Constructs I won't really care about them.. I want just to buff so they can hit me with a 19-20 only. (Buffed AC is 23) Even then, I should manage to withstand a couple of hits. Plus, they'll last 3-4 rounds at most. If the constructs are really a lot, instead than taking hits, it's wiser to just move out for a few rounds hidden waiting for them to expire, and then finish him to death.
Generic guidelines. 1) Stay always at 110 ft or more 2) If Expeditious retreat/Reduce person expires cast another one 3) Buff (Mage Armor-Shield) if facing constructs 4) Don't give Altair a chance to summon a construct with a straight line for charging. 5) Move staying hidden and silently, always. 6) Use ghost sound (gnome) if he seems in construct summoning frenzy. Wait for the constructs attacking me to expire and then ghost sound in the opposite direction from where I'm moving. 7) If the constructs are really a lot, instead than taking hits, it's wiser to just move out for a few rounds hidden waiting for them to expire.
More guidelines. 1) Have a Wonderful Christmas, you and your whole family 2) Shouldn't we read before, I also wish you 2008 will be the best year of your life. 3) Spend New Year's Eve having as much fun as you never had!
Given that no one seems to be really satisfied with the fight, and Whitebaron doesn't have time for edits, would it be possible to accept a surrender from Altair and simply switch it to a win for Uranedal? I believe his tactics were sound and should have beaten Altair's default tactics.
Just to convince myself, I rolled 2 more attack rolls for Uranedal, who promptly blew Altair away. I think if the expeditious retreat had been used, he would have gotten at least those 2 more shots in. Those two can be found here.
Setup rolls are at http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=2174 Altair starts in Box 1, with Initiative +3 = 10 and his crossbow in hands. Uranedal starts in Box 2, with Initiative +2 = 10 and his greataxe in hands.
Round 1 Altair moves out, looking for Uranedal. (he choses box 3 to start with) Uranedal drops his greataxe, draws his scroll of Expeditious Retreat and casts Reduce Person from memory. (Altair hears this...)
Summary Altair 26/26 HP, AC 17, 11/11 PP Uranedal 18/18 HP, AC 13+1+1 (Reduce Person [31])
Round 2 Altair moves closer to box 2, looking for Uranedal. Uranedal hears Altair, but as he cannot pinpoint where he is, he'll stay where he is and casts Spectral hand.(3)
Summary Altair 26/26 HP, AC 17, 11/11 PP Uranedal 15/18 HP, AC 13 (Reduce Person [31], Spectral Hand [32])
Round 4 Altair moves into box 2, spotting Uranedal. Uranedal sees Altair, and casts Touch of Idiocy through his spectral hand(hit, 1). he then moves away a bit.
Summary Altair 26/26 HP, AC 17, 10/10 PP (Touch of Idiocy [long]) Uranedal 15/18 HP, AC 13 (Reduce Person [31], Spectral Hand [32])
Round 5 Altair moves closer and manifests Entangling Ectoplasm(miss). Uranedal decides that moving away is important, and draws his scroll of Expeditious Retreat and casts it.
Summary Altair 26/26 HP, AC 17, 9/10 PP (Touch of Idiocy [long]) Uranedal 15/18 HP, AC 13 (Reduce Person [31], Spectral Hand [32], Expeditious Retreat[15])
Round 6 Altair tries another Entangling Ectoplasm(hit). Uranedal sees that his speed is not really there, and draws a scroll of Shocking Grasp and tries to cast it(succeeded, but missed).
Summary Altair 26/26 HP, AC 17, 8/10 PP (Touch of Idiocy [long]) Uranedal 15/18 HP, AC 13 (Reduce Person [31], Spectral Hand [32], Expeditious Retreat[15], entangled[11])
Round 7 Altair summons an Astral Construct.(overchanneled, talented, 4pp) Uranedal does not know what Altair casts, and therefore reuses Shocking Grasp (miss)
Summary Altair 26/26 HP, AC 17, 8/10 PP (Touch of Idiocy [long]) Uranedal 15/18 HP, AC 13 (Reduce Person [31], Spectral Hand [32], Expeditious Retreat[15], entangled[11])
Round 8 Altair places his Astral Construct (Improved Slam, Trip) and it charges(10, tripping ), while Altair starts to summon another one using overchannel again (4pp). Uranedal reuses Shocking Grasp (miss)
Summary Altair 26/26 HP, AC 17, 4/10 PP (Touch of Idiocy [long], Astral Construct [12]) Uranedal 5/18 HP, AC 13 (Reduce Person [31], Spectral Hand [32], Expeditious Retreat[15], entangled[11])
Round 9 Altair places another Astral Construct (Improved Slam, Trip) and it charges(min damage disables).
Uranedal wins and gets 900 XP, 900 GP and 66 GP for crafting Altair loses and gets 300 XP, 300 GP and 63 GP for crafting

@hirumajoe: thought you'd know better than to not send tactics. you won, though i deem it as ill gotten. @crazy: if you want to hide, specify how to hide. and if you want to move away, better make sure you have time to do that. The arena is very small, especially if your opponent knows where you are. it is basically impossible to stay out of reach of a 60ft spell in the arena even with +30ft more speed. also, give the amount of your crafting on your sheet, too.
@both: sorry for the inconvenience. i'll make sure in the future i've got time for the fight AND edits.
Sadly, I don't think this has anything to do with wanting Next to be a great game. It has to do with wanting Next to determine who won the Edition War. [...] For those of us who just want D&D Next to be a good game, this is getting to be a real drag.
I think I figured it out. This program is a character builder, not a character builder. It teaches patience, empathy, and tolerance. All most excellent character traits.

-Use Rowier as a Scout but make sure he stays between Mineau Guwango and the foe so tha he can return, to deliver touch attacks.
-Try to avoid to cast a spell so as to provoke an attack of opportunity. Either take a 5 foot step or if that is, for some reason, impossible cast defensively.
- Never surrender Knowledge can be gained from defeat.
Mineau Guwango hails from the small village of Saltrup, where he lived the quiet life of village teacher. This life was ended when a group of former studes now corupted by the evil of Denth, burned down Saltrup. After the attack Mineau decitet too take up an old interest of his too gather Knowledge from far and wide, And it was this search that led him to Gladius.
Hit him on the will save then CDG Don't let him charge Stay out of melee Keep Rowier with me
Start: begin with Scroll of mage armor in hand. Round 1:cast mage armor on self. Draw scroll of expeditious retreat Round 2:Cast expeditious retreat on self. Draw scroll of shield Round 3:Cast shield on self.
Begin to move towards Gortek when in range cast sleep on Gortek if he falls asleep move and take his brooch of Shielding (if this does not wake him up) then if it would not wake him up cast blindness on him take his weapon and use it to CDG if it was a crossbow keep it if it was an axe drop it. If Gortek survives move backwards and cast sleep again and repeat the above if possible. Use his weapon to CDG. if Gortek survives cast Hideous laughter then cast blindness on him (if not used before) then if the brooch has been removed cast MM from memory followed by MM from wand, if he still has his brooch use the crossbow. And make sure to stay away from him. when Gortek is Laughting Rowier will attack with melee and move away when Gortek stopes
Contingency
if expeditious retreat runs out recast it and likewise with shield. If all fails use crossbow and pray to the dice gods.

Durzulgor]Hi and thx for pitlording eventhough it's x-mas coming!
Sooo, 2 opponents... Berri is the more dangerous one and Snaga's only hope is his sleep spell. Hmmm, on secound thought, he has no melee weapon for the CDG. So focus on Berri first. I think I'll move through the middle, ignoring the grates (exeption: if I hear someone sundering them or see Berri squeezing through them).
Start with only scoll of invis in hands. Startingbox 1 or 4: start in field 6 of my startingbox, 2 or 3: start in field 4 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
*) Cast invis (CL-check vs 3, use luck reroll if necessary), move out and draw wand of enlarge *) Manifest 2pps vigor, move out (move right if box 1/4, left if 2/3 (there is less water on the way to the middle!)). *) Cast resistance, move and draw wand of cure light wounds. *) try to locate Berri, cast enlarge person as soon as she is found and I'm pretty close. Get close enough to start a grapple (basing her preferrably), drop the wand of enlarge and draw the dagger while closing in. I shouldn't provoke any AoOs, since I'm invisible. Grapple for damage untill she goes down. The dagger is there only to be treatening spaces (should the grapple attempt fail, for example). Use the wand of CLWs to heal back up while grappling if I were to fall below 20hp. Snaga has an equal chance of hitting any of us inside the grapple, should he show up and decide to shoot at us, so he might even help me! Best case scenario: Snaga casts "Summon Swarm" on top of Berri and me! I'll just continue to grapple Berri in this case until she goes down and heal up occasionally, then, once Berri goes down, I'll just dismiss enlarge and move to behind snaga, so that his swarm will follow up to him. Should he try to move away (provoking an AoO) I'll start grappling him, to keep him close to the swarm. Grapple for damage + swarm damage + heal myself back up. That (not necessarily in that order) should finish him!
should Berri go down and Snaga is not currently visible: dismiss enlarge and move away a bit. If below 20hp: heal back up to full, otherwise: move out to search for Snaga, get him into melee and grapple him untill he goes down. Always heal back up if below 20hp. Should I notice Snaga casting longer than a standard action: move out of sight by more than 10' to avoid possible sleep-spells. In case of summoned swarms close enough to him: move further away from them as he is: his speed: 30' (double: 60) wrote:

Should I notice Snaga casting longer than a standard action: move out of sight by more than 10' to avoid possible sleep-spells. In case of summoned swarms close enough to him: move further away from them as he is: his speed: 30' (double: 60); their speed: 40'(double 80), fly; my speed: 50'(double 100) he should just be the closest target so they'll attack him (use jump to negate the movement penalties for the murky water if possible)!
Worst case scenario: he gets me into his Web and lets his swarm eat away at me. That will be quite costly regarding my wand of CLWs, but I won't surrender! Try to break free and move away from him whenever I'm at more than 20hp. Move around the block to get at him without moving through the web and heal back up as necessary. Let's see how the swarm fares against the DC20 Str check to break free of the web! ;-)
Asuming Berri manages to break the grapple before I can finish her off: stow the wand, drop the dagger, draw the greatsword and sunder all weapons she might draw. Attempt to grapple whenever she is unarmed. Use Power attack (-2 att +4 dam) against the greatsword.
Notes: My jump check is quite ok, so try to jump over that damn green water whenever possible. I'd just like to avoid getting soaked in sewer water, if possible. (at least as long as I'm not enlarged or moving through the middle) Always call Berri "Billy" unless she corrects me at which point I'll apologize(I dunno how often I had to change that... :rolleyes Ask "Billy" out to dinner while grappling (she IS quite charismatic after all!) Should Snaga choose to bambard me with undead after Berri's demise: avoid them if possible and move around the acidic pool in the middle, they're mindless, they shouldn't "know" it hurts! ;-) Should avoiding them be impossible: Get them close to Snaga, he has no means of controlling them, so the "grapple for damage and heal with wand" tactic should still be fine, they should just attack both of us! ;-) Whenever I'm healing up: heal at least until I'm at 25+hp (max-dam for scorching ray: 24. To bad I can't account for all crit-possibilities!), heal back to full if undisturbed. Should Snaga try to let his swarms kill me while he is invisible: move away from them and heal back up. Sooner or later he's bound to be closer to them than my little self! ;-) Being large can be quite invonvinient while in the severs so I'll dismiss enlarge if it suits my needs. On the other hand: I'll recast it, should the need arise (Snaga levitating out of reach, for ex.) Don't use more than 1 scroll of invis. Use rage only if Snaga is the only1 left, I've got a good chance on killing him and I'm at low hp.
I'm shure I forgot something, but well, thats the way it goes! Merry X-mas and thx again for pitlording!
Durzulgor]Please use rage only in case of emergency. (I forgot to correct the conditional modifyer: rage gives me +8hp, not +6) If I'm not invisible and I get the chance to attack that raven but nothing else: kill it! If I spent my focus and I feel unthreatened (Snaga is nowhere to be seen and Berri is down and my hp are ok, for ex.), try to regain my focus while searching for my new prey. Schould Berri hit me with her "add charisma-bonus to damage" ability, tell her, that she is so charming, it hurts...

- Always try to set up an ambush using hide and move silently. Remember to have Aiewae make her own spot and listen checks as well. - If spells fail Snaga is in trouble. Use x-bow, fire a shot then retreat. Next round run to maximum distance and reload. Redo from start. (Hopefully his goblin 30’ speed should give him enough distance to load and fire and not enter melee.) - Never cast a spell so as to provoke an attack of opportunity. Either take a 5 foot step or if that is, for some reason, impossible cast defensively. - Use Aiewae to deliver all touch attacks.
History: Snaga is not spoken of in the prophecy. He is not deposed royalty, or “from a different world” he doesn’t have amnesia, or a mysterious parentage, and he is certainly not favored by the gods! He’s just a goblin with some drive and he resents the implication that any success he’s had is due to something other than hard work!
He spent his youth like most of his brethren; scraping out a living in abandoned Dwarven mines and scavenging the remains of fallen adventurers (he found that Halflings always had the best leavings). But a crippling fever left him physically frail and soured his taste for evil.
He was forced to learn how to use his cunning and his powers of persuasion in order to stay alive. When his clan was captured and enslaved by a powerful Drow Wizard: Ragdahazt, he managed to ingratiate himself to the powerful mystic, working as his librarian. Little did Ragdahazt know that this unassuming little helper to whom he only referred as “Snaga” (Goblin for “slave” was learning the art of magic, in secret, while the rest of the clan slept.
Things moved predictably from there. Snaga became overconfident, Ragdahazt became suspicious, and Snaga “accidentally” gave a rival band of hobgoblins the location of a secret passageway that led directly into Ragdahazt’s inner sanctum. Snaga thought it prudent to leave at that point.
Goals: 1. To compile a “complete spell book.” Basically he wants to be able to cast every spell on the Wizard list. He will overspend, grossly, to advance this goal.
2. To found a “civilized Goblin city.”
3. To find a way to reduce the cost of both 1 and 2.
Personality: Snaga is intellectual to the extreme. He a can be a tad snobby at times (a trait he picked up from Ragdahazt) but he’s surprisingly likable (for a goblin). He cares nothing for tradition as tradition dictates that he and all his kind should live lives of squalor and violence. His philosophy on magic is that if its study is advanced it will radically alter society. He has no problem with this and seeks to hasten the transformation.
He has very small handwriting and gives an excellent lecture.
The Dread Dormammu]Hi, and thanks so much for pitlording!
Snaga's Small size and ability to control movement should help him in this fight. The basic plan is to use summons and web to even the odds. Snaga may have to use 2 or more scrolls (use scrolls as memorized spells run out). In general the idea here is to either immobilize them or limit their movement and then use a bat swarm to finish them off. If circumstances reveal obvious way to do this that isn't stated explicitly in the tactics, feel free to do that instead.
Start off hiding and silent in a corner with scroll of Invisibility in hand (other hand free). Aiewae starts on Snaga's shoulder. Wait one round to listen and see if I can deduce the location of either opponent, then cast invisibility from scroll and head towards the center.
Once in the center cast web from memory so as to fill the central chamber, now no one will be able to get through quickly! Cast expeditious retreat from memory and draw scroll of Summon Swarm. Then head back into the tunnels and move to where I think one of my opponents is, by squeezing through a grate. When my opponent is in sight cast summon swarm from scroll (but not directly on them so as not to spoil invisibility).
Maintain concentration and watch the fireworks (use my better speed so that foe is always closer to the swarm.) Drop a wolf skeleton if they are “ wrote:

Maintain concentration and watch the fireworks (use my better speed so that foe is always closer to the swarm.) Drop a wolf skeleton if they are “running laps” to avoid the swarm (If dropping a wolf cancels concentration then ignore this instruction). Once they are dead Aiewae chips and sings (still on shoulder) to lead the bats to the next location to do the same thing to the other foe.
Contingencies:
I find them both and they are in Melee: Great! Cast Web on top of them, then Summon swarm on top of them and maintain concentration.
I find them both, and I can web both simultaneously: Same as above. Saving Berri for last.
They are engaged in ranged combat and not both in a Web-able spot: Wait till one dies then web the other and as above. (If I've been waiting too long summon the bats).
If invisibility ever drops: retreat around the nearest corner (or second nearest corner if I know there is another enemy around the nearest) and cast expeditious retreat. If that spell is already up drop a wolf. Then continue to retreat and cast sleep on the foe when they engage the wolf. (Use pearl to recast if necessary).
Summon Swarm goes down: Re-cast it using another scroll.
Wounded but not dead (unlikely): retreat and drink potion of cure light wounds.
Movement: Always avoid going in the water (no point in being invisible if you are splashing around), and avoid the acid pit at all costs. Move at half speed and silently unless my foe knows my location.
Coup de Grace if it's ever possible. And remember Skeletons and Zombies are not warm blooded and won't attract the bats.

Born in the deserts of the Habari Sultanate, "Berri" spent most of her childhood as an orphan in one of East Habari's many orphanages. Although a kind soul and a beautiful child, Berri soon found life as harsh and unpredictable.
After leaving the orphanage, Berri made the best use of her skills that she could; singing throughout the countryside and wandering where her will took her. She's picked up a number of odd skills along the way, including a bit of magic at her hands to help her out from time to time.
Berri is merely passing through Gladius. She hopes one day to find a place she can call home, but until then, she is satisfied to travel the world over.
About Yaristis
Yaristis is a Neutral Good god followed by many of the civilized races the world over. Yaristis is the emblem of charity and good will and the defender of the meek, weak and poor.
Followers of Yaristis bear the emblem of one hand depositing either a coin or a piece of food in the palm of another hand in an expression of giving. Although many of the followers are pacifistic by nature, a sect of the faith specifically aims to defend the weak and to help out those who suffer from lack of food, water or other needs.
Yaristis's favored weapon is the warhammer - a symbol of strength and structure in many societies. Followers of Yaristis may choose from the following domains: Charm, Luck, Travel, or Community.
Well - hopefully the sewers will be of some help here.
Start off at the default square with a scroll of Shield in hand. Round 1 - cast shield from the scroll (CL check and ASF check). If I fail either check - use the luck domain to reroll the failed roll. Move out, drawing my greatsword.
Round 2 - cast resistance from memory and move out some more.
After that - it is all about finding an opponent. Both of them can choose to go invisible - so seek them out and beat them up when they are found.
For Snaga, just move in and attack or charge if necessary.
For Durzulgor, once he is in sight and in range, cast Ray of Enfeeblement on him from memory (ASF). If I haven't used my luck domain and I fail the ASF - use it now.
After ray of enfeeblement - use my charm domain power (+4 Cha for 1 minute, free action), use a turn undead for divine might and attack him.
Repeat divine might as necessary as I attack until he goes down.
That's pretty much it. If I cannot find either opponent, stay near the center of the sewer area.

Enoch was an apprentice conjurer, under the tutelage of a very powerful summoner, to whom Enoch looked up with a full heart of admiration. One day, before the start of his lesson, Enoch's master decided to demonstrate the Gate spell. Unfortunately, the only demonstration was of why caution is needed when calling a pit fiend with the Gate spell. The summoned pit fiend was Bareth`kul the Archfiend, a powerful denizen of Maladomini, who is more powerful by far than a typical pit fiend and easily overpowered Enoch's master, devouring him and turning his attention to Enoch. Rather than consuming him, Bareth`kul enslaved him. By the use of vile magicks and mundane manipulation, Bareth`kul twisted the lad over several years into a malicious priest and sent him to Gladius to establish the faith. Clearly, Bareth`kul has plans for the city.

It was dark. An oppressive darkness, brooding and alive ... yet there was no life in this dank tomb except that of a young woman, her footsteps echoing on the cold stone steps as she descended into the dark. She had a torch with her, but the shadows it cast were more disturbing than the dark. She paused at the bottom of the steps, unsure and uneasy. Then the shadows gathered ... a soft gasp, prelude to a scream that never came ... just one more shadow in the darkness.
---
Why do shadows gather within the walls of Gladius? You'd have to ask the shadows ... and they don't answer. Danger lurks in the shadows.
Cold ... focused ... hard and unforgiving. Resolute ... unbound by law, natural or otherwise.
A shadowy feminine form. Formed of the very shadows, it fades into them with equal ease.
Against a single opponent: Attack from within the ground (or from within a solid object). Use flyby attack to always finish a turn within the ground. Use allies to flank. Attack simulataneously.

Notes: Enoch's arcane spell failure is 15%, but this is ignored by wands, which have no somatic component. Undead (such as Infernal Charger) are immune to ability damage to physical abilities (such as Strength). Enoch will leave Undeath From Above behind for this fight.
NEVER move within 20 ft. of a pillar.
Enoch will begin behind a pillar towards the center of the map, mounted on Infernal Charger, and holding his wand of shield and his scroll of spectral hand.
Round 1: Enoch will direct Infernal Charger to ascend to an altitude of 20 ft. and use and stow his wand of shield. Round 2: Enoch will use his scroll of spectral hand. Round 3: Enoch will cast shield of faith from memory and draw his lesser metamagic rod of Extend. Round 4: Enoch will cast an Extended sanctuary from memory. Round 5: Enoch will direct Infernal Charger to stay at least 20 ft. away from any and all pillars and circle around the map, looking for Varjo, then will cast cure critical wounds, holding the charge. Round 6+: Enoch will ready to deliver the charge of cure critical wounds to Varjo when he sees her within range of the spectral hand.
Once Varjo has been engaged: Enoch will cast an Extended spiritual weapon to attack her if visible. If she is not visible and he has not yet cast the spell, he will instead cast cure serious wounds, holding the charge, and readying to attack with the spectral hand. If she is not visible after he has cast the spell, he will recall it with his 2nd-level pearl of power. Then he will ready to cast it again (Extended again) upon seeing her. If you rule that has to redirect the weapon to her everytime she moves back into range/view, then Enoch will not cast it again, and will instead cast cure serious wounds, holding the charge and readying to attack with the spectral hand on seeing her within range, and, after that, ready to redirect the weapon to her as she comes back into view, but I believe that, unless directed to another target, the weapon retains its target and attacks them if they leave view/range and then return. When spiritual weapon expires, Enoch will ready to cast it again upon seeing her. After second casting of spiritual weapon, cast sanctuary from memory, followed by divine power.
If the other shadows engage first: Just outrun them. Infernal Charger's single moves are longer than their double moves. Make sure to avoid them and not move close to pillars. If they attain melee, somehow, withdraw.
If shield is about to expire, draw wand and recast.
If shield of faith is about to expire, I pity you the duration of the fight, but recall it with pearl of power and recast.
If things break down, the order of use of offensive capacities is: cure critical wounds, cure serious wounds, spiritual weapon, recall SW with pearl and recast, magic missile, cure light wounds.
If Enoch is engaged by Varjo before buffing is completed: Skip sanctuary, but cast all other buffs and go directly to cure critical wounds.
If Enoch is engaged by non-Varjo shadows before buffing is completed: Cast Extended sanctuary and cast other buffs afterwards.
If Enoch's strength does get drained: Cast divine power for 6 extra strength, unless holding a charge.
That should do it. I hope it goes quickly for you.
Starting Position: Varjo will start at (28,8, 5ft) or equivalent. Varjo will begin hiding and with an initial hide check of 1d20+33 [+14(skill) +19(minimum distance)] she will be impossible to spot. Pitkä and Lyhyt will start at (35,8, 5ft) and (35,2, 5ft) respectively and with an initial hide check of at least 1d20+27 [+8(skill) +19(minimum distance)], they will also be impossible to spot initially. Varjo and Pitkä will delay their initiative until after Lyhyt (so the initial initiative order will be Lyhyt, Varjo, Pitkä).
Basic Idea: Varjo and her shadows run up into the ceiling first and will travel within the ceiling as much as possible as they close the distance with their opponent. They will dive attack or charge if possible, or will then base and flank their opponent, running if necessary. Rinse and repeat.
Contingencies - If Enoch is within 5ft then melee until he drops. - If Enoch is within 80ft (and not at a higher elevation) then charge or dive attack. - If Enoch is within 160ft (and not at a higher elevation), then base him, running as necessary, and take any AoO's that he provokes. - If Enoch is at a higher elevation or is further than 160ft away, then Varjo and her shadows will fly into the ceiling and move around within the ceiling until they are close enough to dive attack or charge [+2 attack, -2 AC (dive or charge); +1 attack (height); +2 attack (flanking: Varjo & Pitkä); all downward movement cost is halved]. - If Enoch is continuously moving away (double move each round), then the three shadows will choose a point in Enoch's path to intercept him and setup in the ceiling above it and wait. If they have to wait for more than 8 rounds, then they will move to the ceiling above the center and dive attack/charge or move to base Enoch from there, running as necessary. - If opponent stays in melee range then Varjo will use two-weapon fighting for two incorporeal touch attacks per round. - While Varjo is moving or running in the ceiling, she will move emerge occasionally (in the middle of a move action) to look/listen for opponent. [Within object: total cover & total concealment; Emerged: within hide ranks of cover (Hide: 1d20+14+distance)]. - When close enough to attack, Lyhyt will move first (Pitkä will take Lyhyt's place if Lyhyt is destroyed/rebuked/controlled) and base Enoch. Once she has based him, she will let out an unearthly scream so the others know his precise location (Note that if Enoch is too far away to base, then Lyhyt will simply return to the ceiling). If Lyhyt does not scream or return, then Pitkä will do the same. - Dodge buddy is Enoch. - Enoch opponent is primary target - If Varjo can't locate opponent(s), then run around the ceiling of the arena in a clockwise pattern until she hears/see's something. Then move in.
Notes - Neither 'Death from Above' or 'Infernal Charger' can hurt the shadows (and except for Varjo, the shadows cannot hurt them), so the shadows will ignore them. - Varjo cannot be hurt by her own shadows if they are controlled by Enoch. - Varjo's effective HD vs turning is 7. Her shadows effective HD vs turning is 5. - Varjo will keep her dagger sheathed and so the Deeper darkness effect will be blocked. - Varjo and her shadows will travel together. - If Enoch's mount withdraws, then Enoch must also take the withdraw action to avoid AoO's. - When flanking, Varjo will be on one side of her opponent, and her shadows will be on the other side, as shown below:http://www.hwx.it/coco/coco.php;v=1;...31,50,Opponent - You can’t execute an attack of opportunity against an opponent with cover relative to you. (see SRD under cover) - In the case of incorporeality, miss chances stack. First check for concealment (20%) then check for incorporeal miss chance (50%). See the rules of the game article 'There, Not There (Part Four)' - An incorporeal creature can sense the presence of creatures or objects within a square adjacent to its current location. Thus Varjo will use listen to get a general location and then move closer to locate opponent precisely. - Do not accept surrender. Hunt and kill.

Presented in order of initiative...
Pikta begins in box 4 with nothing in hand. Lyhyt begins in box 4 with nothing in hand. Varjo begins in box 4 with her blade of night in hand. Enoch begins in box 2 mounted on Infernal Charger with his wand of shield and a scroll of spectral hand in his hands.
Round 1 Pikta delays until after Varjo. Varjo and the shadows take double moves to fly up into the ceiling and then begin moving towards the center of the map. Varjo pops in and out of the ceiling just before the end of her movement. Enoch casts shield from his wand and stows it. Infernal Charger rises 20' into the air.
Round 2 Varjo and shadows double move towards box 2. They can't remain in the ceiling and pass through the pillars (need to remain within a surface as opposed to a 0 surface area edge) hence the double move. Enoch casts successfully casts Spectral hand from his scroll. It has 2 hitpoints.
Varjo [35/35 ] Pikta [19/19 ] Lyhyt [19/19 ] Enoch [53/55] [Shield (21), Spectral Hand (32)] Infernal Charger [51/51 ]
Round 3 Varjo and the shadows take double moves, to give Varjo a chance to peak out. Varjo auto-spots Enoch. Enoch does not spot Varjo. Enoch casts shield of faith from memory while drawing his rod of extend spell. Varjo [35/35 ] Pikta [19/19 ] Lyhyt [19/19 ] Enoch [53/55] [Shield (21), Spectral Hand (32), Shield of Faith (83)] Infernal Charger [51/51 ]
Round 4 Varjo and one shadow charge. One shadow (Lyhyt) runs and provides flanking bonuses. Both chargers hit, dealing 8 total strength damage. Enoch realizing his end may be near, 5' steps and casts Divine power gaining 6 strength. The AoO misses. Enoch gains 6 stength from his spell. Varjo [35/35 ] Pikta [19/19 ] Lyhyt [19/19 ] Enoch [53/55] [Shield (21), Spectral Hand (32), Shield of Faith (83)][Strength -8] Infernal Charger [51/51 ]
Round 7 Varjo and shadows charge. Enoch readied action triggers. He hits and deals 24 damage to Varjo. Varjo crits on her charge, confirming and deals 2d6 strength damage for 9 total. Enoch effectively can no longer move.
Varjo wins and gains 2289 XP and 3243 (+152) GP (-25%+20.38% = -4.62%) Enoch loses and gains 837 XP and 1185 GP (-20.38% +25% = +4.62 %)

Well, this isn't going to be fun. Lucia will be highly amused when I tell her about this one....
Start with dorje of Crystal Shard in hand at (1,5) or the equivalent.
First, manifest Defensive Precognition, Offensive Precognition, and Vigor (2 PP), hiding the displays and hiding myself. Interrupt this if Solstice gets close (1 round away at the rate he's moving).
Now, fly 50 feet up. If I see Solstice, wait for him to come to me and ready a Psionic Shot Crystal Shard on him coming into range (it's the only thing I have that can hurt him). If I don't, use Detect Law SLA and fly into the corner, waiting for him to show up. Point the cone downward at an angle, so that one edge is just at the corner of the map and the end penetrates 5 feet into the ground. If I'm forced to move due to a delay penalty, single-move around and keep the cone at the same angle. If I do register law, move 30 feet up/away and keep looking. When I locate Solstice (or pinpoint a lawful aura), fire a Psionic Shot Crystal Shard and move away.
After the first shot, I need to get off a second shot if I can. Run away until I'm at least 130 feet away and attempt to refocus. Then shoot and move away, ready to shoot, or run away and try again. Repeat.
Contingencies: - Telekinetic grapple: He's probably going to beat me with this one. The range is just too crazy. In fact, with strategic use of this I don't see how he can fail. Nonetheless, I'll make the effort; try to escape using Escape Artist. Re-apply Vigor when it runs out.
...and that's about it. He'll probably squeeze me to death before I can do anything remotely productive, but it's my 3rd fight anyway, so try. If it looks like 'Rith's strategy is pretty much foolproof, just run it until he grabs me and post it. If I agree (and I probably will), I'll surrender.
Thanks for Pitlording Hiruma, this should be the battle of the glass jaws.
Plan: Spot and fling/drain
Buff: Start forward corner w/ See Invisible scroll in hand, use it in round 1.
Rise to see over the roofs, I suspect that Flutter will stick low, but if she is above the roofline … TK bull rush her on sight upwards and see if the Gladius mages will take care of business.
Try to use the cover of buildings to move around so that I’m not always in the open. Use flyby attacks when doing the TK options. If Flutter gets really really close, use invis scroll and go for a draining touch for str, it will probably put her into medium load which means that she can’t fly. If I get one draining touch, try to get a second one in there for the win.
There is a Tavern question regarding falling damage overcoming DR, if it gets ruled that it does, feel free to fling Flutter into any building, ground, etc to cause damage.
Notes: - If she is running at me w/ a djore in hand, feel free to try grease on it, so that she drops it, and then move into a building for cover if she doesn’t, only do this if TK isn’t ready, and I’m not setting up for the draining touch.
I think if the expeditious retreat had been used, he would have gotten at least those 2 more shots in. Those two can be found 
Ask "Billy" out to dinner while grappling (she IS quite charismatic after all!)
