"C'mon Mavis, don't you wanna ride a dragon? Maybe we'll get to fly after the army, jumping off to slam right into the empress. Now that would be, uh, "runnin' into right"." Ruby attempts to persuade, getting a little lost in the fantasy judging by her tail swishing eagerly.

Is this how skylanders live? In their imagination? In their desires?
Mavis stares at them, as implacable as the stone of her home.
What ah want, an' what'll shore pit are two different things Ruby. An' I'll not live in 'maybe'.
We'll free dragon first if that's ruling. But ah'll not run from this evil after. Empress needs to be dead by morn, owt else is just tailings. There's job ahead and me to gi' it go.

As you observe and plan your move, you hear confirmation from the guards of the worst, indicating that the dragon is going to be publicly sacrificed at dawn to bless the war campaign. They're excited that the blood magic from such a killing will make the army even more terrifying and unstoppable. Whatever move you make, you have less than six hours to do it.
What do you do?

Hehsh let's out a long hiss and looks around. "I think we create a disssstraction and free the dragon. We can't wait until they go on the move anymore."
Aug 8, 2020 8:07 pm
Agreed. I can cast some showy spells, take out a few guards and maybe you sneaky and/or strong types can get in there and get those chains off

Ruby nods, the fantasy not yet dead but overtaken by their immediate troubles. "Maybe you could tell some of them to 'come quick' and ambush em', maybe split into two groups?. Where should I go?"

would it be possible to get a crude (or fancy) style drawing. Perhaps theres vantage and/or choke points that we can try to steer them to

Hasan looks about.
"There doesn't seem to be any good vantage point. Someone mentioned they could become invisible? Perhaps that would be a solid start."
Hasan rubbs his eyes trying to wake himself up for the new deadline

Mavis had found a way to get onto the wall, behind the dragon (map right wall).
Aug 12, 2020 4:15 pm
OOC:
possibly could repel down the wall to get to the dragon but still have the guard ppost and the 5739831209 creatures to deal with :?Aug 12, 2020 4:23 pm
OOC:
How about... Garth and Hehsh create a distraction by or outside the gates. They have magic, and magic=mayhem.
Mavis and Ruby climb down the wall. Ruby is stealthy AF too. Mavis tries thieves' tools on the locks. Failing that (which isn't unlikely) we'll be using the crowbar? Hasan covers us from the top of a wall with his sniping skills.
I guess we have to succeed on only two on the same side to be able to pull the net off.

That sounds like a solid plan. I can cast thaumatargy or however it is called. Then some fire damage. I can be very distracting. All I need is a wheelbarrow and a holocaust cloak. LOLLast edited August 12, 2020 4:57 pm

Mavis quarterbacks it, glancing at Garth to check he agrees.
..so thee pair create rumpus outside gate. Ah'll gie Hasan leg up wall as ah know route. He can drop anywon who teks shufti at us.
Ruby and me will act like a couple of sneaky buggers an' drop down behind the great ha'p'orth. Then try an' get net off.
Seeing Hehsh's lips move in confusion she tries again,
...so the brace of our association who possess an arcane disposition will precipitate disruption. I shall facilitate Hasan's escalade as I am familiar with the route. If he could assassinate ruffians who happen to surveil us, then that would be super!
Ruby and I shall covertly introduce ourselves behind the imposing Draco Aesium, and endeavor to emancipate it from its bonds.

If ruby and mavis are both stealthy, why don't i cast invisibility on hasan so you have more people where the mission is happening.Aug 12, 2020 10:14 pm
Mavis, and Hehsh, you are right. I will give you a couple of minutes to get in position. You will here me when I start.
Garth moves a bit away from the gate.
OK my friend. I am going to cast Spirit Guardian, ignore them, they won't hurt you, but try to stay close to them.First Garth casts elemental weapon on Hehsh's weapon. It now does and extra 1D4 acid damage.
After the spirits arrive Garth causes his voice to boom with thaumaturgy.
I am the Dread Pirate Roberts. Come and face me and meet your doooooom. Come little beauties, unless your are afraid.

[ +- ] Spirit Guardians
You call forth spirits to protect you. They flit around you to a distance of 15 feet for the duration. If you are good or neutral, their spectral form appears angelic or fey (your choice). If you are evil, they appear fiendish.
When you cast this spell, you can designate any number of creatures you can see to be unaffected by it. An affected creature's speed is halved in the area, and when the creature enters the area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 3d8 radiant damage (if you are good or neutral) or 3d8 necrotic damage (if you are evil). On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage.
