Ok Silent I found a better staff for you as we already had a Staff of the Woodlands in the game and we did not need 2.

Look it over and if you have any questions let me know.

Silent did you get my email with the new more Druid like pic's for your character?

If Sirene's cone of cold does enough damage to make the goblins turn and run back into the room that will give Ulthok time to join her at casting area spells on them. With the party members in front of Ulthok they would likely get part of the hit. Sirene and Ulthok can charge the door way and cast into the room.


---------------------------------
BTW, When the combat rounds are over Ulthok indeeds to retrieve his arrows from the Orc bodies.

Tann, being that Peri turning invisible is an ability and not from magic items wouldn't that still allow her to turn invisibile in the casle?

but I've been busy trying to get pain outta my body

Ody you make a good point but remember this... Peri herself is a magical creature so True Seeing works against her also.

Ok Silent I hope you feel better soon, so no post from you this week?

Yeah pretty much Teller no finesse needed for Hacking & Slashing

will get a post up tonight for sure. It's almost done, but i will warn you it's gonna be short!

“The Gods Shines on me.”

Touch me
How can it be
The Gods shine upon me
Hold me Close to your heart
Touch me
And give all your love to me
To me…

Reach down inside yourself
And find nothing there
To ease the pressure of
The Ever worrying minds
All the powers waste in time
Fear the crazed and lonely looks
The people sending out
These days

Please don’t ask them to defend
The shameful lowlands
Of the way we are drifting
Gloomily through time

I reach inside myself this day
Thinking there’s got to be some way
To keep these troubles away

Touch me
How can it be
The Gods shine upon me
Hold me Close to your heart
Touch me
And give all your love to me
The Gods love to me
To Me!

Much thanks to the Bards of A-Ah

So, I've noticed a little bit of confusion about whether the party needs to take cover from Siréne's spell. I think it's safe to assume that everyone is out of the way since nobody is directly in front of her.

To clarify, with her amulet, the duration, range, and damage of offensive spells. So, we're looking at a larger spell with double damage. Even with that in mind, I would think the party is safe since all steered clear of the door.

We shall see what happens...

If you read the description of the spell it normally starts as a cone 5 feet long and 1 foot wide doing 1d4+1 per your level. It spreads out as soon as you cast it from your hand. So for you that means a 60 feet long by 13 foot wide cone doing 13d4+13 points for a possible 65 total points of damage.

That's a normal Cone of Cold. Now lets double that...
120 feet
26 foot wide
26d4+26 points of damage, total possible damage 130

Now the doorway where the Goblins came out of is roughly 14 foot wide leaving a 12 foot excess, 6 foot on each side as the cone hits and attempts to fully pass through the door.

However the cone is not fully formed having only traveled at that point 18 foot from where Sirene is standing as the hallway is 20 foot wide and she is by the back wall so it is only 18 foot wide at that point. That leaves an excess of 4 foot, 2 foot per side of the cone that is NOT passing through the door. Instead that excess is impacting the wall at a high level of power. The initial impact is like a huge snow ball hitting a wall and exploding in all directions including back towards the thrower.

Unlike a snow ball this is a steady cone of cold made of ice and snow that hits like a hose of water and rebounds back towards anyone standing close to both sides of the door and moves down the wall for a short distance. This effect lasts 1 round only as the spell is instantaneous.

Wow that's a mouthful huh but it's good you commented on that Nimu as itr does play a major part in my post and now I won't have to explain why what happens, happens. At least I hope not (crosses fingers)

Well, I was going to point out the error of your calculations concerning the Cone, but it seems that despite the backlash, the party is ok for now.

So I figured why give a DM anything that might be turned against us.

For Aliya, I think priority number one is stabilization. As I'm not too familiar with second ed's healing rules, if Cor was to cast a healing spell, would that stabilize Aliya? If not, the healing skill would do it right?

Would you please do so as I admit that I do get confused on feet and foots and inches.

I also forget to wash them at times too.

To make healing much easier the way I do healing spells is if a spell like Cure Serious Wounds were cast on Aliya she would get max hit points back. In this case as CSW does 2d8+1 she would get a total of 17 points back.

As for extra healing potions its sorta the same thing . You drink one dose you get 8 points, drink the whole potion you get 27 points. On a normal healing potion which you fully have to drink to get the full benefits, you get 10 points back.

Now the spell Heal takes care of everything injury related and also a few other things like disease, feeblemind, Etc. So casting that on Aliya would take care of all her damage and her severed spine. The only thing Heal cannot Heal is a severed body part no longer attached to the body, that has to be regenerated over time. Though the spine is severed it's still a part of her so Heal will work. However as it is a serious bone break she will be slowed in melee giving her a -2 to her attack rolls for at least a few hours.

Better

Well Ulthok intended to get Valene out of the path of Sirene's spell (you're welcome Kriea), he just didn't realize how it would react beyond a normal Cone of Cold. Got to remember how her Amulet effects her spells from now on.

I've got to remember to stay behind her when ever possible.

49 HP, ouch!!! Well I guess it's better than being Fire Bombed while in Ooze form, didn't survive that one.

Does he have blue tinged like Poppa Smurf?

So just how much movement does Ulthok have? Can he get to his supplies? Can he talk? If he can't speak, I'm thinking of having him communicate through Peri.

Hey SilentOne, now would be a GREAT time to rollplay some "really good healing", lol.

BTW, just noticed you gave Valene the hit, Ulthok should be down at 15 points not her.
