Arena is 30 feet tall, worked stone. Normal lighting.

Starting locations: I'll start somewhere in the top three rows, and you'll start somewhere in the bottom three.

Buff rounds: How does all days + 2 rounds sound?

[PhoenixRivers]

I'm fine with all day +2.

When you say, "Normal lighting", are you referring to "normal, for an area entirely enclosed in stone", or "normal, as in there are no bonuses or penalties related to light, and vision functions as normal" ??

[IthilanorStPete]

The latter.

[IthilanorStPete]

Buffs:

All-days: Assume Thicket of Blades stance. Apply Oil of GMW to my spiked chain.

Buff round 1: Drink Potion of Fly.
Buff round 2: Tap tattoo of Expansion.

Start in K2-L3.

Initiative: [roll0]

[PhoenixRivers]

Buffs:
Round 1: Schism
Round 2: Greater Blink
Schism: Touchsight, augmented to 80 feet

Location: C25

Init:[roll0]

[IthilanorStPete]

I have LoS down the right two columns - do I see you?

Vision: True Seeing

[PhoenixRivers]

That's a negative.

[IthilanorStPete]

Move: Fly directly south to K20-L21. Do I see you at any point?

[PhoenixRivers]

You do not. Continue your turn.

[IthilanorStPete]

Swift: Burn 1 Belt of Battle charge for a move action.

I keep flying south to K24-L25, then turn left and make for A25-B26, unless I see you at some point. Do I?

[PhoenixRivers]

Visible in C25.

[IthilanorStPete]

So I get LoS as I move into K23-L24. Description, por favor?

(I'm a Large-sized greensnake naga, carrying a shuriken in one hand and a spiked chain in the other. I'm not wearing armor.)

[PhoenixRivers]

Small Goblin. Itty bitty guy. Wrapped in a cloak.

[IthilanorStPete]

I finish my move in E25-F26.

Free: drop the shuriken and shift the spiked chain to both hands.

Standard: make a trip attempt.
Melee touch: [roll0]. If it hits, make a Ref DC 25 or be slowed as per the spell until my next turn.
Trip: [roll1]

[PhoenixRivers]

Miss chance for Blink: [roll0] 5 misses.

Otherwise, I am tripped.

[IthilanorStPete]

I have True Seeing and Pierce Magical Concealment. No miss chance.

[PhoenixRivers]

Reflex: [roll0]

Slowed. Any other actions?

[IthilanorStPete]

Nope. Turn's over.
Also: you're aware you can't cast defensively.

[PhoenixRivers]

No need to cast defensively, lol.

Schism Power: (Psicraft DC 19)Dimension Door, Psi

And I disappear.

Remainder of Turn: Arrive in E4. My Standard/Move: Cast Fog Cloud, intersection: F5/G6

[IthilanorStPete]

*mutters*

End of your turn? Do I see any effects, or does anything happen to me?

[PhoenixRivers]

No Visible effects, as of yet. :) And my turn is over.

[IthilanorStPete]

Actions:
Standard: Drink Potion of Conviction.

Move: Move north to E22-F23, NW to A18-B19, then north to A9-B10, contingent upon getting LoS; do I?

[PhoenixRivers]

At A18/B19, you see that C5 and C6 have a dense fog in them.

[IthilanorStPete]

I keep moving, unless I see anything else new.

[PhoenixRivers]

D6, D7, and D8 also have a dense fog in them. The fog also extends upwards, occupying the same squares at 10 feet up. At 15 feet, D5 and D6 have fog, and it continues to extend south. E6, E7, and E8 have it at this altitude. The same squares are occupied at 20 feet. At 25 feet, F5 and F6 have the fog.

That should pretty much create a solid wall of fog for you, as visible from A9/B10.

[IthilanorStPete]

Been busy. Will have turn up tomorrow.

[PhoenixRivers]

ok. 234567890

[IthilanorStPete]

*mutters about finals and the evils of trigonometry*

K, so I'm in A9/B10. Does Pierce Magical Concealment help me see through the fog?

[PhoenixRivers]

PMC doesn't enhance your vision. It just allows you to ignore the magical miss chance from an attack which is correctly targeted. For example, if someone is magically invisible, PMC wouldn't grant you the ability to see them. However, if you targeted the correct square, it would bypass the miss chance granted by the spell effect.

True Seeing does not penetrate the fog, as it is actually there (Conjuration effect), rather than an illusion.

Short of Blindsense/Blindsight, Tremorsense, Mindsight, and Touchsight (the last of which, I possess), very few effects can penetrate fog. It's one of the reasons I favor it so heavily.

[IthilanorStPete]

*sighs* Thought as much. There's a reason I usually play casters.

LoS/Obs:
Ready an action to trip him upon gaining LoS

End turn.

[PhoenixRivers]

And now, slow is over.

My Turn:Schism: Vigor, Augmented to 10pp.
Me: Death Urge, Overchanneled to ML 15, fully augmented.
Damage to Self: [roll0]

To start with, I need a DC 25 Will save vs a Mind-Affecting Compulsion effect. (You are targetable, as you are within the range of my touchsight, which functions similar to blindsight on steroids.)

Turn not over.

[IthilanorStPete]

Will save: [roll0]

[PhoenixRivers]

Remainder: No more actions, though, as soon as he does anything at all that would approach within sight of me (if he approaches to 10 feet away from me) or he attempts an attack, I intend to manifest Anticipatory Strike.

Oh well, your will save's solid. Which is smart.

End Turn.

[IthilanorStPete]

Steadfast Determination. :D

My turn:
Move: move to A8-B9, then start heading NE, aiming at F3-G4. Do I see anything next to me as I move, or does anything happen?

[PhoenixRivers]

Yes. When you hit D6-E7, something happens (you do not gain LOS at this point):

LOS to my character: Manifest Anticipatory Strike.

Schism: Dispel Psionics, Augmented to 10pp
Standard: Manifest Energy Stun, Augmented to 15pp, Electricity.
Overchannel damage to self: [roll0]
Move: Dimension Door, Psionic (augmented to 13pp)

First Effect you get hit by: Targeted Dispel. Rolling 10 checks, let me know if I need more. This will affect any effect with you as a target.
[roll1]
[roll2]
[roll3]
[roll4]
[roll5]
[roll6]
[roll7]
[roll8]
[roll9]
[roll10]

Second effect you get hit by: A burst of electricity opens up near you. Reflex Save, DC 27 for half damage. Damage: [roll11] electricity

If you fail that save, I'll need a Will save, DC 27. If you fail that: You are stunned for one round.

Final Effect (observers only):Destination: D25

Once those effects are resolved, continue your turn.

[IthilanorStPete]

Adjucating Dispel:

Conviction, CL 18 - not dispelled on a 25
Fly, CL 5 - dispelled
Expansion, ML not-bloody-enough - dispelled

Reflex: [roll0]

Will save if needed: [roll1]

[IthilanorStPete]

OO:
Use Moment of Succor to delay the stun for one round

Well, I'm shrunk mid-move, but do I reach F3 without further event?

[PhoenixRivers]

Still immune to Stun after the dispel? Hm. Well, the first roll was low. The change from (F3-G4) to F3 lets me know that you're, at least, shrunk.

Yes. You reach F3 without event.
