The Sundered Way - OOC

[spiderwrangler]

There are worse contingency plans than having a tree standing handy to clobber anyone chasing you...

[M0rtimer]

While Ulmwin would be willing to help with the charm route, that doesn't seem like it's going to be an option anymore. He'll just have to be on the backup team too

[Theis2]

So the plan is for Holger and Tess to run in with Zokk, open a window with mage hand that Holger and Tess can crawl through with the help from Zokk to reach it? Holger will scan with detect magic to see if he can find the location of the object (or any other interesting items).

Anything we should do beyond that?

[spiderwrangler]

Using Randy for anything?

[Lurks_In_Shadows]

Team security/guard, unless you guys fancy your chances at close range with Mr Gibbs. From Tess' description, he's probably a fighter of some type close to Randy's level.

[Theis2]

You could join us inside as well, extra man power doesn't hurt, granted it's an extra roll that can fail

In any case, Holger should be able to withstand melee combat about as well as Randy for a couple of rounds, in a rather nasty way with hex and dual wielding daggers for the offensive.

If we take a short rest before going in, Holger would like to cast Hex (wis) on Tess in secret to see if she senses she's been afflicted by something on her own. He'll dispel it again after getting confirmation one way or the other.

((If there is anything you want to actually do, post it in the game thread! I'm not treating anything here as occurring!))

[Lurks_In_Shadows]

Let's get this show on the road then!

[spiderwrangler]

I know we are stuck kind of half-way to the house, but it seems that Theis and Thinks aren't quite able to be back full, and this is my hell week when it comes to grading, so wouldn't be up for much of an update even if they were. I'll leave it open for them to make rolls was they are able, and if they haven't by the time I re-emerge from the other side of grading, we'll go from there.

[Lurks_In_Shadows]

We'll wait.

*Sigh* Someone can shoot me an email if this goes active again.

[spiderwrangler]

Yeah, sorry. I'm under the end of the semester grading pile at the moment, so haven't been pushing people too much, since I can't guarantee I'll be able to keep pace, at least for a few more days.

I think you guys have a plan, so we'll be able to just go from there once I'm able to poke my head in for more than just a few minutes here or there to keep my characters from wandering off in other games.

[spiderwrangler]

So... I'm done grading, but Theis has been sporadically checking in, Thinks hasn't been in forum for almost a month, and Lurks is decreasing forum time while things are slow, especially with the overtaxing of the medical system at the moment...

Who all is around, what would you like to do?

[Rodgeir]

Dornikal is around but not involved in the heist.

Maybe just coordinate with Lurks and Burns to get the heist done so we can get out of this side, side quest?

[Arch Lich Burns]

Zokk just knows that their friends want to sneak for something, and wants to help out their new friends.

[spiderwrangler]

There is also Kreldoran arriving in town soon, which may give you some other options.

I'll touch base turn Lurks, but if he's not up for hopping back in and us proceeding with Holger and Tess on pilot, Burns, you could have Zokk get wary and suggest putting things off until they aren't on high alert during the day?

That would get us back to the inn where everyone else is just resting...

[Arch Lich Burns]

Yea that could work.

[Rodgeir]

Don't want to waste Burns and Lurks work sneaking up to the place, but waiting for Kreldoran is a good option as well.

[M0rtimer]

Yeah, Ulmwin wasn't really participating as things were, he was holding off ready to be the cavalry; He'd probably wait for Kreldoran's opinion first himself...

[Lurks_In_Shadows]

Sounds like a reasonable approach. We could just maintain a watch and come back at night after meeting with Kreldoran… or Randy could just pop a window pain and chuck the fire ball gem in and burn the place to the ground. (Just kidding! )

[spiderwrangler]

Alright, I'll let you guys handle that in thread, and we can move forward from there. I know Holger and Tess were part of the heist impetus, but we can figure something else out.

[Rodgeir]

Okay, locate object, true seeing to scope out the space, then dimension door in, three people in the bag of holding and one on the outside. Pop in, grab object, pop out?

The dominant person is concentration and only lasts a minute, I am worried it won't be long enough.

[spiderwrangler]

Can be cast higher for longer.

[Rodgeir]

I'm liking mass suggestion and dominant person then.

[Lurks_In_Shadows]

I'm kinda deferring to you all since I don't have the player handbook to pick through. I guess I could ask what level Keldorian is (i.e how many spell slots and how high?).
