Welcome Mrs Skye… about time you joined a game; You picked one of the best on here.

My first thought on getting over the chasm is the shape shifting of Cynil… to expand on Steelights suggestions above… Cynil changed into a Elephant… can she change into a large flying creature? A giant eagle or Roc or something large so that she could ferry a couple… or all… of us over the chasm?

I don’t know the extent of her abilities … but that was my first thoughts… the bridge thing is a good idea but it would have to be very solid as a bridge that long would be very unstable.

And the flying part … well we might have to visit that now… it is only a short distance.. If anyone had fly and can carry one person at a time… they could ferry all across… a couple of people with flying could probably get everyone across before a spell duration expires… just my first thoughts…

The glider? Kenji would not be crazy about that one…

I did a bit of ability checking and we have some interesting options.

Cynil can change into a bird and fly across the chasm.

Haila can do up to 8 poly morph other spells and change others into birds.

Maggot has up to 3 Fly spells enable someone to fly and polymorph self.

Sirene has up to 10 Fly spells.

Ulthok has up to 3 Fly and 2 Fly Potions and polymorph self.

I know Skye is new and will want to read up on her spell, but she now is one our most powerful mages. Between her and Sirene they could get everyone over in one flying method or another.

So gang any ideas on how we should move forward?

Sorry for the delayed response. My sons "lovable" nuisance of a goat decided her mid-day snack should be the outside line that feeds my internet connection :o

Thank you for the welcome! Glad to finally be in a game! It took me a while of browsing to find one I liked.

I’m still in the process of reading the back story and familiarizing myself with the characters.

Are we too far away to make use of a few dimension doors? Or transport via plants? I am sure if we could use those someone would have said so just tossing it out there.

Off to finish reading the backstory!

Skye

I am hesitant to rely ENTIRELY on magic. It's only a gut feeling, but I can completely see someone getting half way across the chasm and then hitting an anti-magic area and plummeting to their death.

I don't believe Wild Shape is considered a spell-like ability so would work in an area of anti-magic. And if the end vote is that we should try some combination of the spells Ody brought up, then we'll try it. I would suggest we have some sort of safeguard though just in case (like the large eagle idea).

Ok just a quick notice just like Brianna is playing both Rayne fulltime and Cynil on a Temp basis so too is Kyle now playing both Maggot fulltime and his old character Conall on a temp basis.

So Kyle, Brianna, as your post subject please continue to put the name of which character you are posting for there.

Thanks.

I don't remember seeing any abilities for Demensional Door, but I could have missed it.

The teleport is still just as risky as it was because of not knowing the location well enough. I'd say we can just barely see across the 300 yards. Teleporting to somewhere you have been is the usual because you know where you're going and can visualize it.

Do we know how deep the chasm is, maybe Cor can figure that too?

Could we in theory enchant a rock with light and have someone not susceptable to losing flight with loss of magic fly it across and see if it winks out? Or I supposze we could throw it but its not likely to go far.

I kind of like the idea of a flock of Eagles. That would really look cool!

So do we post at random or are we still waiting to hash out a plan first?

Many many apologies for my sudden appearance of non interest. I am in fact here and interested I've simply been swamped with too many deadlines and a nasty flu bug!

Well you can post to what you feel your character did to get to the point we are. I hope we get a bit more plan and then we can post our next move. The last time I just posted randomly we had a nasty encounter with the people eating plants, lol. Steelight's character is the leader now and we are still fairly committed to follow him so I hope he gives us some direction. I think there would trouble going down into and through the chasm.

I have already posted my thoughts.. and an IC post ... since my character doesnt have any magic there isnt much more he can contribute.... also I believe it doesnt hurt to also offer up suggestions IC ... it isnt like our characters are mind readers.. well mine isnt... and we need to maybe offer suggestions IC as well... not every post IC has to be an action to speed things along... if it is all action where is the storytelling aspect... just my thoughts... take them for for they are worth... very little

Im working on a post now I promise! Deadline met, Fire averted, possum has once again wandered off to whatever corner of hell such ugly creatures live in and I promise a post today sometime between the electricians return and bedtime!

Hello my wonderful DM, I have an annoying questions before I can post. Can I see the slugs or are they father than 60ft in front of us. What time of day is it right now? How far do melf's magic missiles go. Would I be able to hit the slug-like creatures with them? What about speak with animals, would that spell work, or would it not work because they are only slug-like animals?

*hugs Tann* Hope you are feeling better. Hope your mom is doing well also.

Can I see the slugs or are they father than 60ft in front of us. At the moment they are clustered closer to the Pyramid almost a mile, mile and a half away.

What time of day is it right now? No way to tell as your underground and the only light is from torches,

How far do melf's magic missiles go. Depends do you mean Magic Missiles or Melf's Minute Meteors as there are no Melf's Magic Missiles.
Magic Missiles have a range of 60yards +10yards per LvL
Melf's minute Meteors have a range of 70 yards +10 per LvL

Would I be able to hit the slug-like creatures with them? No


What about speak with animals would that spell work, or would it not work because they are only slug-like animals? Not sure you won't know till you try it on them

*hugs Tann* Hope you are feeling better. Hope your mom is doing well also.

Yeah I'm good and Mom made it through surgery ok she should be coming home somewhere between Sun-Tues. Thanks for asking Flirt your a good friend.

(Still want ya to post and oh yeah to marry me though )

Alright, so since we slept, don't we get to pick more spells? If so there are only a couple I would like to change if thats alright with you hun. If you came into chat it would this so much easier!
