A little reminder that some of you are still slightly injured, just in case you forgot. Everyone is at least at 90%. Also, it's been a while, so I should also remind you that what Alex saw indicated that the watch at the main gate was extremely lax. He noticed that no one was actually watching out of the arrow slits - at least not while he was there. Oh, and I've allowed a generous amount of time for getting back up the mountain. I've set it so you have a half-hour of full daylight left. Lot's of wiggle room if you want to adjust this so you're attacking during full daylight.

I'd still favor speed over "quiet" though. They'd have to be pretty darn lax not to hear Pen, and especially Rolf, coming by, even if we -try to be quiet.

I'm feeling better now but I was sick all night, so after I get the kids off to school this morning, I'm going back to bed! Hopefully this afternoon I'll be back and can post.

Or I passed it to her. Cause I was pretty sick all night too. So I might go back to bed as well, but I dunno. we'll see.

I guess it's a good thing my wife forced me to get a flu shot this year - even though my arm was sore as hell for a day afterwards. Y'all take care of yourselves, now.

One idea I had is the one I brought up IC. The other is to have Dar and the other dwarves provide covering fire from behind. I doubt that they will effectively be able to fire into the room once we're inside, but they can provide a layer of fire that will prevent any one from coming out the main door and attempting to come around behind us.

Posts: 8757 (12/12/03 06:42:07) Dragon Protector III More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Well I dunno about Elanor, But it's not the flu I had. I won't go into details, but it's not the flu. And I'm all better now. I hate flu shots. I normally get the flu about once every 3 years or so. I had pneumonia when I was 15, so I had compulsory flu shots the next 5 years. I got the flu every single time, about two weeks after the shot. Bah! Well I had an idea about some cover fire too, although in a different way. It probably won't come to pass now though.. We'll have to see.

Posts: 1070 (12/12/03 09:38:32) More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I got a flu shot this year too. Actually this was the first one that didn't make my arm sore, so that was nice at least. Anyway, those of you that have it, get better. Those of you that don't, don't get it!

Posts: 3188 (12/12/03 09:49:24) More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	No, I don't think I had the flu either... thank goodness! It didn't last that long although I'm still kind of tired and feel rundown. I don't mind getting flu shots - I usually get one every year, but this year I was on vacation when they gave them out here at work. Anyway.... I'll try to post at lunch time today. But I should warn everyone that with the holidays approaching, I'm going to be getting busier and busier! I'm already feeling snowed under. (Haha! I guess David would know about that more than I would!)
Elanor	Invisible scroll?	#10	[-]
Posts: 3188 (12/12/03 13:12:51) More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I just thought of something: is it possible to cast a spell (which I guess has to be read) from an invisible scroll?

Posts: 3566 (12/12/03 13:17:03) More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	If its a problem just drop the scroll when your in position. Once it's seperated from you it'll be visible, even if you pick it up again, enabling you to read it. As far as I know, though, there are no official rules on the matter. I think its up to Crito to call for future reference, but like I said, it shouldn't matter in this case (because we won't be in combat rounds until after Nadia casts). Black holes are where God divided by zero.

Posts: 3655 (12/12/03 13:42:08) More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I would think that the person who is invisible can see themselves and their items. So I'd rule that you could cast a spell from a scroll while invisible.

Posts: 3566 (12/12/03 13:47:37) More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Okay then. Are we all set for Eber to cast invisibility? Black holes are where God divided by zero.
Elanor	Re: Invisible scroll?	#14	[-]
Posts: 3188 (12/12/03 17:58:09) More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Hmmm... well, I was thinking of making a point about how weird it is for Nadia to walk along and not be able to see her own feet. etc. But that's ok... I'd rather be able to read the scroll! I'm ready. As soon as Nadia is invisible, and she and Alex are about to go on up the trail, she'll cast guidance on herself. She'll have a minute after that to use the scroll and get the benefit of Lathander's guidance on her caster check.

Posts: 8757 (12/13/03 08:04:46) Dragon Protector III More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Yeah I hadn't thought about it for a long time (I'm sure me and my friends discussed it in high school, since we discussed -everything- back then. ), but I guess an invisible character would get all kind of penalties if they couldn't see themselves and their gear.. And looking at the map, there's only one of those large squares between our targeted arrow slit and the first switchback in the trail.. So even given a couple more feet for us to be actually around the corner, it's less then 30'. Even Rolf can cover that in a round, so we'll be allright..

Posts: 2689 (12/14/03 08:47:41) More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I'm househopping to avoid the flu. I was staying with my parents but they both caught some nasty illness, so they kicked me out because they didn't want the baby to get sick. I have stayed in two different households the last three nights. I might stay somewhere new tonight. Got to be fair you see...big family and everyone loves having a baby around. phone call..."I heard you were staying with Jill. Why didn't you call us? I heard your parents got the flu so I've babyproofed my entire house and borrowed a crib and a high chair from my neighbor already." It's been really fun, actually, but also a bit hectic!

Elanor	Re: Invisible scroll?	#19	[-]
Posts: 3188 (12/15/03 07:52:50) More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Is it full dark now? I'd say that no, Nadia is not carrying a light source. If we need light inside, she can cast a spell I guess. edit: OK, according to the Dragon Daily, the sun will set in about 20 minutes, and the moon is up (but it's not much of a moon, right?). We should be able to see well enough to get up to the arrow slits, I think.
Elanor	We're in!	#20	[-]
Posts: 3188 (12/15/03 12:14:18) More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I was surprised that we were able to get in undetected. Cool! So, Nadia is having Dracha communicate to the others (including Alex) about the room and its occupants. I expect that Rolf, Pen, and Eber will come on in also. Rob, do you think that Alex could get to the other side of the doorway without being noticed? I think it would be a good idea for him to be in position for a sneak attack if the guards hear the rest of the party coming and come out the door.
