    Djinn showing up and a halfling having good ideas... as the now dead Xan used to say doomed, we're all doomed...

    I'm kinda sad nobody wished for Shar-Teel back in the party with all of her gear. Then again...
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Katastrophe At this point, I don't think Shar-Teel will be able to get back to finish the module with the rest of the party. Only about an hour or so has passed since she "disappeared" in Tomb time.

    Tomb Time... now there's a weird-sounding one! But you can decide which character you might want to play in the new module. :)

    @LadyRhian Welllllllllllllllllllll, if they ever decide to rest...multiple times...or the party wipes, perhaps, just perhaps, Shar-Teel might arrive? And I'd want to play Tamoko. The Tamoko of the somewhat awful Baldur's gate book, not the game.

    @Katastrophe I actually don't have stats for her. And I don't see any on the web. Does anyone know what her stats are in-game?
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    @LadyRhian I'm awesome. I used Shadowkeeper and found them...I just hope they're not horribly messed up over some tutu mod I used ages ago and forgot:

    18/50 strength, 17 dex, 16 con, 9 int, 12 wis, 14 cha.

    Those stats are not correct. I just found the correct ones, I'll post them in a sec.
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    Yeah, I realize that now...cuz shadowkeeper is telling me she's also a kensai and...yeah.

    Tamoko

    Human
    Neutral Evil
    Female

    Level 10 Cleric
    80HP

    STR: 17
    DEX: 17
    CON: 15
    INT: 13
    WIS: 17
    CHA: 16

    THAC0: 16
    Number of Attacks: 1
    Lore: 17
    Magic Resistance: 0
    Turn Undead Level: 10

    Saving Throws:
    Paralyze/Poison/Death: 6
    Rod/Staff/Wand: 10
    Petrify/Polymorph: 9
    Breath Weapon: 10
    Spell: 11

    Weapon Proficiencies:
    Spiked Weapons: ++++

    Ability Bonuses:
    To Hit: +1
    Damage: +1
    Open Doors: 18
    Weight Allowance: 170
    Armor Class: -3
    Missile Adjustment: +2
    Reaction Adjustment: +2
    Hit Points/Level: +1
    Reaction: +4

    Bonus Priest Spells:
    Level 1: +2
    Level 2: +2
    Level 3: +1


    These stats are likely not completely legal in terms of the rules. For some reason she's a cleric with 4 points proficiency in spiked weapons. And she got some incredibly good rolls for HP.
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    That's cuz she's an npc. I really don't care if the stats get lowered...Just think of the cool character interactions Tomoko can have! woo.

    Nobody with any sense wants phenomenal cosmic power when it comes with itty bitty living space. :) Imoen is also confused at the two services the efreeti claimed to perform, but mostly, she's glad that the efreeti was not in the mood to stab or roast the party. What if he's a demi-lich? Phenomenal cosmic power, itty bitty living space (his skull). Acerak's dumb as rocks! Acerak's dumb as rocks! If you tell him "gullible" is written on the ceiling, he looks up. Well, he would, but he may not have a neck any more. (Imoen is a touch slaphappy at the moment.)
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Awong124 Thanks! Actually, all I needed was the stats. @Katastrophe wants to play her in the next module.

    @Jhart1018 LOL! Maybe Imoen should volunteer to open the secret door?

    Remember that Tamoko also has the innate ability to cast a flame arrow that does 1 damage.

    I think the three wishes/services were as follows:

    First service:
    Permidion_Stark: Are you the kind of Djinn that grants 3 wishes to people?
    Efreet: "Djinn?" the creature seems offended. "I am not one of those airy effete cowards. I am of the Efreeti! Passionate as flame, bright as the sun! I will perform three services for you, in return for my freedom. Is this what you wished to know?"
    Permidion_Stark: Sorry your shininess. I meant no offence. But yes, that is just what I wanted to know.

    Second service:
    Delvarian: "I wish only to know where this Lich is that I might smite him in truly heroic fashion all over this tomb."
    Efreet: The efreet motions with his hand. The ring in the wall pulls and turns, and a hidden hole/slide opens in the floor. "Go down that slide, turn immediately to the left and go through the wall. Use the keys on the holes in the floor, and you will find that which remains of Acererak."

    Third service:
    Awong124: "For our last wish." (YouTube video setting Djinn free)
    Efreet: The Efreet smiles at Kivan. "I will always remember your kindness," he says. He turns into a flash of flame, shoots down the slide, and around the corner, and is gone.

    I felt the encounter went something like this:

    Master: Approach, my sons. [they do] You may ask me three questions.
    Apu: That's great, because all I need is one --
    Homer: Are you _really_ the head of the Kwik-E-Mart?
    Master: Yes.
    Homer: Really?
    Master: Yes.
    Homer: You?
    Master: Yes. I hope this has been enlightening for you.
    Apu: But I must --
    Master: Thank you, come again.
    Apu: But --
    Master: Thank you, come again.

    I think you are probably right. Damn I'm way too good at role-playing someone with 7 Wisdom. I was trying to be smart and look where it got me ...

    Now, live up to your wisdom, grab that beserking sword and get ready to kill the lich (backstab him with it.) yes, yes, you'll then go insane and kill everyone else... but low wisdom!
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    The Bronze key slips smoothly into the keyhole. It doesn't explode or kill you immediately.

    Low wisdom yes. But I'm only small. I don't think I could pick up a two-handed sword, cursed or not.

    Hurrah! I didn't die and I didn't get teleported naked anywhere. High fives everybody.

    OOC
    I'm going out for a few hours so won't be around to find out what is behind the door. Now that it is unlocked I will stand back and lurk in the shadows while the brave people go in first. Once the door is open I will check for traps or run away in my boots of speed if anything nasty leaps out.

    OOC Amazing something in the dungeon didn't kill us! :)
  • mlnevesemlnevese Member, Moderator Posts: 10,214
    I'll hide in shadows and get ready to backstab anything that comes out through the door.
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    Minsc will stand out in the open ready to face any evil that appears.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Imoen will be in the shadows behind Minsc with her bow ready.
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    I will not be terribly surprised if Shar-Teel ends up being the sole survivor. Nude perhaps, living definitely.

    The door sinks into the floor. Inside is a 10' by 20' room. It is, as far as you can see, completely empty.
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    OOC: unfortunately Minsc will not be around this weekend as its his sons first birthday. Wether we live or die against the lich, I've had a blast RPing with everyone. Special shout out to LadyRhian for doing a great job running this.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Thanks!

    Don't worry. Boo will keep you alive :)
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Okay. So... who wants to go inside?
