GM: Ack. ------------------------------------------------------------ [New Stuff] [Febris 9th, 1635TH] [Time: 5:01 pm] [After the last Challenge and the Guardian tells of more wards.] "Well, I only know two types of dispel. Elder and Law. Both at a very low level. But I'll do what I can to help." Kiet tells the others as they climb. Mae climbs and considers the most recent events. It makes you stronger? You don't know strength little one, summon a sister and see what true strength is,' the voice teases, 'I would rather rut with my own mother than doing something you want me to do you bitch,' Mae yells in her mind, her resolve starting to falter as she looks at her companions and wonders which might survive and stops herself, 'Damn do you all wind up dealing with this? How do you survive in the Court?' she asks mentally, the voice, however, doesn't respond. Maelorna gives Z'layha a smirk as she talks about the fortress, "Somehow I have a feeling, they would allow the others to pass, but myself, as I am now, they wouldn't hesitate to send to the Court. If I could ask one thing of you, which I will repay, warn me when to change back to hide," as she reaches up to see if her earrings are still intact or had she lost them. "I do hope that if we survive this, we can actually stop long enough to take a nice, long, hot bath as well, while I don't care of my particular undress, my less than hedonistic side would enjoy having to clothe once again. She watches the other's with their own personal challenges and realizes only one choice each was valid, the other choices even if s were traps. When all the challenges appear complete and they have lost the sailor she smiles. As they hear the next part, "I am uncertain about wards, if it's Chaos, that means I can pass but you couldn't? I'm not fully immune to the powers of Law, but they have less effect than they would on a normal human or even those aligned with Chaos. I am able to dispel, but that requires me to be hidden in the human shell as I am unable to use the spells, apologies, still trying to figure that part out." Z'layha asks Mae, "do you need to be in..that form still?" Z'leyra pauses, then says. "What I would like to do is to just teleport back to where the statue was unveiled. But it seems likely that wards would turn a near certain teleport into a very chancy dice with death. So I deem that avenue too risky to use. Further, I am hindered by a miscast magic that distracts me with overpowering smells. This may wear off or need to be dispelled." "I see no need for haste, and perhaps a bit of rest would help. While we rest we can discuss how best to proceed. Perhaps come up with a plan? Any ideas? Remember that we are all in this together." She nods at Mae. Z'layha looks sad, "rest? I want out of this place and home as fast as we can!" "Well, if one of us has a staff or wand stronger than mine, it can be passed around to provide better chances for success." Kiet looks over to Mae and says "I know what you are thinking. Get the mind out of the gutter." "My biggest concern is the range of the wards. If they out- range our dispel casts, we might be...well....toast. Perhaps literally." "Time for everyone that has them to fess up. Against what alignments are each of you able to negate spells? I already announced mine." Z'leyra responds to Kiet, "I am decent at dispeling or banishing Chaos, only journeyman level at banishing Elder and but apprentice level at banishing Law. My wand and staff are both quite powerful as one of my best skills is enchantment and I used my best skill to make those items. And yes, I can loan them out as needed. Those who do borrow them, try not to drain the mana batteries in them too much." Z'layha speaks up, "I am decent I guess in taking Shamanic and balance things out." Actions? Comments?? Next Update....Wednesday... GM: A short update. I think plans on the ward dispel will be needed so we'll wait a few more days. In order to help speed things not taking weeks I'll do a GM no-no and give the ward #s below. But it will not mention strength. :) Based on this data one can figure out who wants to take which, any if any aids and how many recasts. Yes the numbers are shocking but there is a reason. They wanted a guarantee of no escape from the shifters. I'll perform all the various rolls in one update to speed things up. So its important to say recasting limits, aids and such. I can't list strength yet as it will be randomly rolled but being gods or their Avatars the power would probably decent but not ungodly to overcome. I revised these numbers 4 times at one point they were up to 4 times as many but this should be enough if the team works together. I know some have mana reading so can figure out strength but that may cost as well. But with the number below it'd take 10 months. So this is best way to speed things up. Unless someone gets zapped I'll do it all in one post but if zapped then will stop. ;) If folks need to know ELs for disp/banishes let me know. I doubt much has leveled up that much since start. GM: Ward Info Alignment Number Balance 15 Chaos 19 Elder 17 Kotothi 1 Law 17 Neutral 9 Shamanic 5 Sidh 5 At BMC 3 most costs might be 13-23 but could vary lower or higher. :) GM: Known Dispel Skills Balance - Z'layha (Decent) Chaos - Z'leyra (Decent) Elder - Kiet (Low) Z'leyra (Journeyman) Kotothi - Law - Kiet (Low) Z'leyra (Expert) Neutral - Shamanic- Z'layha (Decent) Sidh -
