EDIT: figures. I hope you guys don't need much healing while I'm away, as that means I'm out for 6 rounds (I have to get back as well).Last edited by farothel; 2022-04-10 at 02:44 PM.

Well damn. Looks like Akula likely misses twice, steps away and then vomits on his boots

I guess I can't do another will save to get out of it earlier?

Re: Savage Tides, Take 3, Out of Character Thread
Don't think so. Cordelia's found (I think) a compelling argument to the alternative, but without you being an animal companion trained to Come, we don't have any tools to combat it.
Doesn't look good for us, tbh

Re: Savage Tides, Take 3, Out of Character Thread
I don't think Come gets Kitten back in the fight though, just stops her leaving it entirely. I can try a Push Animal check to get her to Calm Down (repeat save at +4) once she's stopped fleeing, but to be honest at DC25 my odds aren't great.
I think Calm Down is a skill trick I need to devote some time to teaching her. The standard "trained for Fighting" loadout of Attack Down and Stay, plus 2 bonus tricks of Come and Heel didn't write cut it.
At next level up I'll improve her intelligence to 3, which unlocks a lot of options for Kitten to act intelligently and independently.Last edited by RCgothic; 2022-04-13 at 09:43 AM.

Re: Savage Tides, Take 3, Out of Character Thread
Honestly, I can see clear arguments both ways. Both the magical effect and her training are designed to supersede the normal. The question is whether or not one or the other completely invalidates each other.
*shrugs*.
Regardless, with or without Kitten we're in a bad place.

Re: Savage Tides, Take 3, Out of Character Thread
Withdraw to an even better choking point. Our initial strategy wasn't bad, it's just a few bad rolls that screwed everything up.

Unless I missed my round count, I still have one round of running away to do.

Re: Savage Tides, Take 3, Out of Character Thread
So what first? Get the priests and demons out, or go after the brother? I'm fine either way, as long as we prepare in advance.

The brother I think. The priest beat us last time so some more experience or possibly som looting may help us prepare

Re: Savage Tides, Take 3, Out of Character Thread
We got unlucky with some fear, nausea and invisibility effects we hadn't prepared for. Plus now we have inside info so it could be *us* getting the jump, not the cult.
I'm for taking them out. I don't think Rowyn wouldn't be suggesting we take them out *soon* if she doesn't think we're capable of the job.

Re: Savage Tides, Take 3, Out of Character Thread
This is my take as well. I asked in discord, but I'll reiterate here. Is there any reason Firi'Sar can't research the dretches, and perhaps their quasi-human allies? With ~4000g, we should absolutely be able to buy a few scrolls or potions and wreck these guys' whole day.

Re: Savage Tides, Take 3, Out of Character Thread
Okay… so Priests of Demogorgon it is
With some stuff to battle dretches, Priest and invisible demon… I’m thinking some glitterdust, a partial wand of remove fear and a cold iron weapon or twoThanks to Emperor Ing for the nice Avatar

Re: Savage Tides, Take 3, Out of Character Thread
I can cast remove fear (1st lvl spell).
Fri'Sar as arcanist should have see invisibility on his list (2nd lvl spell). Same for Glitterdust.
Cold iron weapons cost 2 times what normal weapons cost, so we should be able to outfit everybody with a cold iron weapon of their choice. I actually already have one cold iron and one silver dagger, just for these situations.
I would get a potion of remove fear for everybody and then one scroll per person to cast, or even 2 potions per person. The potions cost more, but are easier to use as everybody can drink one. With a 10 minute duration, 2 potions should be enough I would say.
Glitterdust wil need to be a scroll. They cost 150gp per piece, so we can get two just in case. If we only use 1, we can keep the other one for later.
Maybe we can also invest in a wand of cure light wounds. That's always useful to have around.Clacks-Overhead: GNU Terry Pratchett

Re: Savage Tides, Take 3, Out of Character Thread
I'm on board with basically all of these, though I will request an official DM response on potions of remove fear. My understanding is that by RAW you're unable to drink it if you need it, and would rely on someone else pinning you down to force feed it to you. I've always found that to be horribly unhelpful, if perhaps believable.
