Eilyra nods slowly, before turning to go. "Very well, if you are convinced that sharing is impossible, we'll depart. Please don't destroy or remove the tomes."
Putting action to words, she starts off down the corridor, until she's out of sight of the lich, and promptly casts haste, followed by Time stop.

Maybe that's a surprise round? If it is a full initiative round, she'd pull out her ink, and tumble into the room.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
As the world fades into the familiar grey of frozen time, Eilyra doesn't hesitate as she quickly reverses course, and dashes past the guards, into the room, reaching into her bag as she goes for the vial of ink she carried for writing. She doesn't hesitate for a moment as she throws it at the Symbol, seeking to cover it, and prevent it from going off.
Inside the chamber, she heads across the chamber, ending up just behind, and to the right of the quasit, and hovering just above it, before she starts chanting once more, casting Lord of the Sky, and finally, Maw of Chaos, placing it directly on the Lich.
Spoiler: Time Stop Actions
Round 1
Movement(Move)(70 feet total)
Pull an item from her handy haversack(The ink vial)(Perpetual options)
Throw the ink vial(Action)
(1d20+31)[44] Throw!(Edit: -5, because knowledge devotion probably doesn't apply here. Disregard if it does)
Round 2:
Move more(Between the two rounds, she moves around the antilife shell)
Cast Lord of the Sky
Cast Maw of Chaos
As the grey blur of frozen time vanishes, Eilyra mentally curses, before she reaches out, to touch the quasit, even as a blast of lightning lashes out towards it. She also calls out to her allies "NOW!"
Even as she shouts, a blue-green aura, almost mouth like, appears around the lich.
Spoiler: Surprise Round, and Init
Swift: Using Lord of the Sky's bolt option:
(1d20+35)[51] Ranged Touch attack. If hit, 20 lightning damage.
Action: Casting Night's Caress.
(1d20+35)[45] Attack (15d6)[66] Damage(+5, if knowledge devotion applies to spell damage) + (1d6+2)[4](Knowledge devotion probably shouldn't apply here) CON damage. Fort save, DC 27 counters the CON damage. If it is undead, it doesn't take the damage, but instead needs to make a will saving through(DC 27), or flee as though panicked for (1d4+22)[24] rounds.
Additionally, Maw of Chaos procs. The Lich takes (22d6)[71] damage(+5 if knowledge devotion applies), and needs to make a will save(DC 31) or be dazed for one round. While within the area, anything that takes concentration(like casting a spell, or using a SLA) takes a concentration check(25+spell level) to succeed. If it has the chaotic subtype, it is unaffected.
(1d20+23)[24] Initiative Edit: Of course it is a one.

A vial of ink seems to appear as if from nowhere and smashes against the armor of the wooden construct, covering the symbol there in ink.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Taric is a little confused by what happens, then realises one of his companions has activated some sorts of powerful magic. Assuming they have no alternative, he charges at the wooden guard on the left hand side. He uses both weapons to carve away at it at full power, after pouncing into battle.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Ash
Ash is slower to react than Eilyra, but feels the rush of her speeding-magic even as she stops time and reappears inside the library.
Taking to the air, Ash drifts over the heads of those on the ground, then attempts to strip away the magical protections and enhancements from their opponents. Then she flashed a ray of light in the lich's direction, and waited expectantly for a response.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Gently, Ash reaches out to touch Centre and Avarkuss. Activating one of the powers of her belt, she brings the two others with her into the library, past the guardians, and just behind the avatarist.
Spoiler: OOCInitiative: 25
Standard action: activate teleport function of her Belt of the Wide Earth, sacrificing Righteous Wrath of the Faithful to power this. Ash is bringing Avarkuss and Centre with her. I'm not sure about the interaction of teleport with Anti-life Shell. Centre and Ash, as outsiders, can definitely start close to the avatarist. Avarkuss will start 10' away, but hopefully will be able to reach whoever he wants with his sword.
Rolling for on target: (1d100)[67]
Move action: Ash flies up to the ceiling and to a point roughly 20' west of the Lich, avoiding the Maw of Chaos area as she goes.
swift action: Divine Metamagic Searing Light on the Lich.
Ranged touch attack: (1d20+19)[38]
Damage: (10d6)[31]
She'll prepare an immediate action to use her Sudden Insight ability use Greater Dispel Magic on the Lich, triggered by the first offensive spell or SLA that it tries to use. Caster level check: (1d20+20)[22]

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
As Ash teleports more of the group inside the library and blasts the lich, the invisible quasit doesn't stand a chance as Eilyra unleashes a blur of blade and lightning at the tiny monster. Its lifeless body drops to the stony ground that forms the floor of the library.
The wooden construct within the library is now able to react to all of this. It retreats towards the entrance and concentrates, attempting to fill the lungs of some of the treacherous invaders with water. It also attempts to swiftly fill the slayer of the quasit with bloody vines.
Meanwhile, the wooden constructs near the entrance lash out with their greatswords as Taric approaches. The one he carves into is damaged, but resists the blades and takes a bit less damage than he might have hoped. It doesn't seem to take extra damage from the holy aspect of the blades.
The lich remains trapped in the blue-green chaotic energy surrounding it.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Avakuss welcomed the free teleport to the other side of the enemy. He knew the anti-life shield was there but with his size growth and his equally enlarged greatsword he knew he could still strike even if slightly hampered. Water started to gag him. Avakuss resisted the spell and spat it out. "You'll have to do better than that. This is an unnecessary fight. You are surrounded and we have superior casting. Even if you could win you'll lose in other ways."
The giant goliath darted past Center while closing with the main toy soldier and drawing his deep crystal greatsword. Just outside the magic shell he began chopping down the oversized toy casting deadly spells.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
As her lungs fill with water, Eilyra coughs and splutters for a moment, but doesn't seem to be adversely affected by the liquid, certainly not enough for her to fail to resist the magic seeking to turn her own flesh against her.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
The glowing green-blue maw chomps down on the lich once more.
(22d6)[68] Damage + DC 31 will save or be dazed.
Not missing beat as the Quasit falls, and finally managing to expel the water the drown spell had created, Eilyra sets her eyes on the opponent that could still turn the tide of this battle against her, and her allies.
The lich.
Without hesitation, she launches herself towards the creature, darting past it even as her flaming sword flares with arcane fire, and she slashes out against it, and then again, as she returns to hover over the corpse of the Quasit, and the rather curious rod.

Eilyra’s rapid attacks cause the Lich to drop dead. As her blades strike, it becomes clear that the Lich was wearing chain shirt armor beneath its thin robe.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Ash
Seeing Eilyra become a whirling engine of doom, taking down the lich virtually single-handed, Ash takes heart. She turns her attention to the avatarist, sending to her colleagues.
*The wooden man will be able to bounce to another statue if we kill him. Unless one of you have a way to trap his soul in this form - and I don't - then the only way to stop him is to destroy all of the statues. In the meantime, I'll attempt to suppress his ability to exercise his control over these three.*
Ash weaves a spell that is intended to hedge out the Avatarist's influence. She then soars up over the swirly maw of chaos and into the midst of the three wooden statues.
Spoiler: OOCMy understanding is that the wooden avatarist's possession is based on Magic Jar. Which is explicitly suppressed by Protection from X.
So Ash will use a standard action to cast Magic Circle vs Chaos on herself, then flies around the Maw of chaos in order to slide into a space directly above the avatarist, adjacent to statues 1 and 2.
Which leads to an interesting effect. When she passes through the same space where she might be drawing attacks of opportunity from all three, she also cuts off the avatarist's ability to control them.
And if this doesn't work to shut them all down temporarily, Ash will prep an immediate action to counterspell the first SLA the avatarist might use. (1d20+20)[28].
Currently AC 39 (41 vs chaotic opponent), HP 206.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Taric takes three hits, and is pretty hurt by them, but he remains in the fight. He continues to hack away at the statue to his left hand side, blades chopping at them like logs instead of like wooden animated creatures.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
As Ash approaches the wooden constructs, her Magic Circle Against Chaos spell appears to have no noticeable effect on them. She comes adjacent to them but doesn't quite have room to pass above them.
The constructs take the opportunity to try to attack her. OOC: vs AC 39
attack (1d20+25)[44], damage (2d8+15)[29] #1
attack (1d20+25)[43], damage (2d8+15)[24] #2
attack (1d20+26)[42], damage (2d8+15)[24] WA
The wooden avatar targets her with a Blood Creepers spell-like ability. Because it's not a spell, she can't counterspell it.
OOC: Fort DC Fort DC 22 negates or take 15 damage/round + immobilize/entangle
The wooden avatar then uses another spell like ability, targeting not only the party but most of the library including the bookshelves, excepting only where the wooden constructs are, plunging everything into sudden cold and threatening to turn the party to ice! Snow appears in the air and all over the books.
OOC: Frostfell, Fort DC 25 or turn to ice as Flesh to Ice; on a successful save take (20d6)[74] frostburn damage. This targets the area, not specific creatures, and affects living creatures.
Objects in the area, including those held by creatures, are instantly covered in a thin layer of frost, making them slippery. When a creature uses a frosted item (a weapon, lockpicks, a potion, and so on), it must succeed on a DC 10 Dexterity check or it drops the item before it can be used. Cold spells cast within the area gain a +1 caster level.
The two other constructs continue to attack Taric. OOC vs AC 35:
attack (1d20+25)[29], damage (2d8+15)[30]
attack (1d20+20)[24], damage (2d8+15)[26]
attack (1d20+15)[18], damage (2d8+15)[25]
attack (1d20+25)[37], damage (2d8+15)[22]
attack (1d20+20)[30], damage (2d8+15)[20]
attack (1d20+15)[17], damage (2d8+15)[29]
OOC: I'll roll for Taric here since if he succeeds, he'll destroy construct #2 and damage #1:
Fort (1d20+25)[30] vs DC 25; Dex check (1d20+3)[8] vs DC 10

Taric made the Fort save but dropped one weapon. Check for the other: (1d20+3)[20] vs DC 10
Edit: He made the check for the second weapon and hit construct #2 twice. All constructs are still standing.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Focused on taking down the lich, Eilyra doesn't realize the danger the avatar poses until it is too late, forcing her to simply bear the brunt of the blast of cold.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Avakuss's mental prowess not only allows him to resist turning into a giant ice statue but also squashes most of the devastating blast of sudden cold. Avakuss's own defenses then renders the cold shock into nothing for himself. He counters by driving his foot into the ground, creating a narrow shock wave trying to tumble all three constructs to the ground.
"This would go quicker if that shell would go away."
Spoiler: OOCFort save made in OOC.
Immediate: Use Augmented Damp Power to reduce the cold damage down to 20 for myself and allies. I have Resist Energy 30 so no damage taken. Taric looks to have Resist 15. Correct me if wrong but I don't think immediate powers grant AoO. If they do, Concentration is at +32 so auto-pass. 7PP used
Greater Stomp to hit all three constructs but avoid allies. Reflex DC 24 or fall prone and take (7d6)[28] damage. Manifested defensively (+32 so auto-pass). 9PP.
Realized I'm covered by Center's Magic Circle against Evil too so AC 39 currently.
Ash/Taric and Ash/Avakuss are flanking. Might help with Taric's attacks rolled before Frostfell but taking effect after Frostfell.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Ash
Disappointed that she has failed to sever the Avatarist's link to the statue, Ash pays the price, and feels her blood begin to rise up against her. Her magical training helps her fight back the powerful magics.
And then the blizzard happens. Ash is grateful to Avarkuss for his quick thinking in protecting from the worst of the effects of the cold, but then glances over at Eilyra.
Her mind racing, Ash uses one of her most powerful magics to transform her back from ice to flesh.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
The magic-using construct and the construct that Taric has been carving into fall prone and get a bit more beaten up as Avakuss shakes the ground. The other one remains standing and unharmed.
Center's golden halberd is coated with frost now, but in an instant, it vanishes ... and reappears, without the frost. The rilmani arcs it down to try to finish off the magic-using construct.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Her mind returning to existence at Ash's wish, Eilyra quickly takes in the changes to the battlefield, and offers Ash a quick smile of thanks, before she darts across the battlefield, her speed rejecting the slowing effects of Frostfell, even as she chants to quickly protect herself against the frost. Almost as soon as she finishes that, she reaches her target, the damaged soldier, and quickly swings twice, before falling back towards Center, casting a Ray of Enfeeblement at the remaining soldier as she retreats.
Spoiler
Eilyra is moving to hover over the corpse of the fallen construct, to slash out at 2, before shifting back towards Center, but making sure to not get in his way, should he wish to charge. She is also casting Ray of Enfeeblement, which does, in fact, work on constructs(It isn't ability damage, but a penalty. Go funky rules?)
She has a dex modifier of +10, so she can't fail a dc 10 dex check, as nat 1 is not an auto-fail
Freedom of Movement says nope to Frostfell's penalty.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
The wooden construct that had been using magic vanishes; its armor and sword remain.
Eilyra targets the one that remains standing, damaging it but not felling it.
Her Ray of Enfeeblement also strikes the construct, but because it's a Necromancy effect, it has no effect on the construct.
The constructs continue their attacks against Taric.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Taric is badly hurt by the more recent attacks, and is currently without one of his weapons. So he decides to fight defensively, going totally from offence to defence, while waiting for his companions to attack the creature from behind, where hopefully they are already attacking.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
Avakuss is impressed with Center's swordmanship dispatching the magical wooden soldier. As that "toy" disappears the giant goliath smiles as he sees in his head the end in sight. He follows that vision by leaping forward as he sheathes his greatsword, landing and pounding on the remaining enemy with his deadly fists, starting with the prone one.
Spoiler: OOCHustle (3PP) to gain an extra Move action.
Move: sheathe sword and leap 15' north getting me into reach of both. Goliath Mountain Mvmt means I don't need a running start. Jump +51 so auto success. Balance is +29 in case it matters.
The movement does give each soldier an AoO on me vs AC39 (and 25 temp hp).

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
With the fall of the remaining pair of constructs, Eilyra pauses a moment, to take in the room. Her slow, even breath was frosting in the air, and the moisture was freezing, and falling into a mist of ice, which didn't help with visibility much, in the snow fall. The thin layer of ice that had formed over the ancient bookshelves groaning with the extra weight, the still glowing(And chomping) maw providing the only illumination in the darkened room.
The series of beds along the far wall, and a few tables scattered about, all covered in their own layer of ice, and the frozen over corpse of the lich, still centered in the glowing maw, and the scattered gear of the destroyed avatar completed the image.
Taking another breath, she looks to Ash. The glowing embers in her hair, and eyes seemed rather unearthly in the terribly cold air of the library "Thank you for the save. That cold... there just wasn't enough time for me to brace." She lets her breath out, forming another miniature snowfall, before she continues. "We need to search the place, see if we can find books of interest, but... this frost..." She gestures around, before she continues. "If you're not resistant to cold, it's going to get bad, quickly, and I'm out of resistance spells. And we need to clear this ice from the books pretty quickly after we dispel the frost, or it may damage them."
With that, she flies over to one of the bookshelves(Blowing up a storm of snow with every flap of her leathery wings), and takes a look at the books, trying to determine how much ice was on them, and what the chances were of it harming the books when it was melted.Last edited by Archmage1; 2021-06-20 at 03:42 PM.

Re: Planescape: Center of All - IC
The bookshelves contain a mix of paper books, scrolls, and loose sheets of paper or parchment. Some of them are quite yellowed and fragile already; the risk of damage from melting snow is rather high. Even before the snow, a thick coating of dust lay on everything.
Of possible interest, there are some books already open and spread out on the tables, particularly the tables near where the lich was.
