Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: Wish upon a falling elf
the problem ( or challenge in business speak) here is that the elf boys are not falling. They have been thrown. So you are trying to do the equivalent of catching a cinder block throw from a small catapult off a tall building at your head. You may be able to do it, but it won't be pretty. Spells are great but it is a matter of time. If the elves hit at the 2nd segment and the spell takes three secs, well you get the picture.
Because this is a fantasy based game I will give people a chance to catch. If you succeed, depending on how well you do you may get away with minimal damage. You can not dampen inertia.
The flyers have a Better chance to save because their magic is active and designed with carrying burdens in mind. Even then, Arien or Lun could be pushed into the Rock cliff and take some damage.
It is a risk. But you might save them and you can heal later.

Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: none of which are anime actually
I have said that you can attempt to catch a elf if you want but you will have to roll for it and there is a chance you will take damage from the impact. You are basically trying to catch a body throw at high velocity over 80 feet.

Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: animate
Animate objects is a 9 seg casting time and the animated objects do not move very fast. You could do it but not sure it would benefit you much.'
For the record, I wasn't even thinking about anal invaders/tentacle sex before Robert said anything.

Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: Arien
It's time to prove to your friends that you're worth a damn. Sometimes that means dying, sometimes it means catching a thrown elf while evil tentacles come at you all wanting to be your personal Proctologist.

Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: Portable Holes
I would say your chance of success catching an elf is better than to try and open up a portable hole and get it into a position to catch elves. Remember you don't have maneuverability with levitate.

Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: well
I am sure that in reality it is not possible to catch a projectile in flight, this is a fantasy game so K could run and leap of the bridge to attempt to catch one. He'd probably take damage though.
You can try to walk away from the tentacles but you may ask yourself how did the bodies get up there in the first place if they couldn't reach down?
Anime tentacles! I wasn't even thinking about that Robert, until now ....

Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: suspension
Nothing is impossible! If you wish to attempt say, drop in levitation to move quickly and reactivate to save falling Hunter, I would give you a chance. If you fail then you miss and hunter goes splat. I would say that is hard (14 ON D20) with a dex bonus used.
Ground combatants can reach tentacles with missile weapons only at this point.

Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: clarify
Hunters are being thrown at the party by the tentacles. So they may not be dead right now, they soon will be hitting the ground at high speed.
Feather fall won't help. They are not falling, they are projectiles now.
You could use the pillars of the bridge and the ground for web but time will depend on initiative rolls and casting time.

Topic: Continuing Where We Last Left Off Again Subject: Rise up Rise up
The die is cast and the plan is set as Arien and Lun move upwards towards the hanging Hunters. The rest of the party waits beneath on or near the bridge where they can watch and prepare for ...well anything. The two adventurers reach about 40 feet up when something happens suddenly.
The six bodies fall, or rather the "ropes" that holds then lengthen and they drop about ten feet dangling on blank tentacles covered with small suckers and barbs on them. Then the serpent like appendages reel back and with a snap, hurl the bodies of the hunters in unison at the party below.
Now unburdened from their former prey; the black tentacles move toward the Knight and the Priestess with lightening like speed.
OOC: You are in combat. I need actions posted. Remember if you are on the ground, you are under bombardment by dead bodies.

The feather fall affects one or more objects or creatures in a 10-foot cube, as long as the maximum weight of the creatures or objects does not exceed a combined total of 200 pounds plus 200 pounds per level of the spellcaster.

Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: bodies
There is about 20 between the bodies with two over the bridge being the centre so you would need to cover 60x20 with web to catch them all. You also need to moor the web to something

Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: Webslingers
The web spell covers a maximum area of eight 10-foot x 10-foot x 10-foot cubes and the webs must be at least 10 feet thick, so a mass 40 feet high, 20 feet wide, and 10 feet deep may be cast. Creatures caught within webs, or simply touching them, become stuck among the gluey fibers.

Topic: CWWLLO QnA Subject: see
This is why I hated being a player. You don't know what is going on, you are not sure what is in store and you can only guess as to what the DM has planning and is scheming in his devious coast to coast evil mind. Truly it is so tough to be a player in that situation.
