Ha, yeah, you did. Argenta, the white robe wizardress Shawdor sent you to find was found, along with the dwarvern cleric Lucana. In an attempt to save Argenta from being crushed, the black dragon attack and Lucana cast a compulsion spell to make all of you run away to avoid being killed by acid. She brought you to her old home, brought stone back and made an offer.

Anyone joining her in her quest to kill that dragon, she will make them a powerful magic item in which to do so, one of your choice. DZ joined up with her and she made him and his familiar a weapon each of what he asked for.

If you want to join her, say so, and say what item you, and your familiar want. Use those two weapons in the thread as an idea. It can be a weapon, magic ring, robe, whatever. :)

I'll join with her, I want a club with spikes that poison for my familiar and a robe that lets me become invisible for 10 turns a day.

Alright, she does her thing and this is what you get:

Blackstone Mesh Robe:
+5 AC Deflection Bonus
Cast Improved Invisibility 1/day, caster level 12
Energy Resistance:All 10 (Fire, Cold, Acid, Electricity all have 10 damage reduced from attacks against you each round)

Blackstone Spiked Great Club:
1d10 x2 Damage
+3 Enhancement Bonus
+1d6 Piercing Damage
DR 5
Use: Poison effect 2/day. DC 20 1d6/1d6 Str Damage. Can be mixed with an attack.

She thanks you for helping her cause.

She also makes equipment for the two Skeletons.

Blackstone Helm's of Undeath:

+3 AC Deflection Bonus
+4 Enhancement Bonus to Strength
Negative Energy Pulse-3/rd Negative Energy Damage 5ft. Radius (anyone hit in melee, or hitting them in melee takes this damage)

Also you can level your character if you want. The website- http://www.systemreferencedocuments.org/35/sovelior_sage/home.html
should give you all of the information you need to bring your character to level 9. I'll inform you if you get any special feats and what not for going up a level as a Red-Robe if you choose to do that.

If not, I'll level them when I get time. :) I have something to do in about 10 minutes and don't know how long that will take.

Alrighty. I'll update your sheet then.

Your sheet is done Blake. Take a look at the spells for 5th level for wizards. I won't update your spell list since you have that website. You can pick any spells, level 1-5, without the schools of Necromancy, Enchantment and Divination. Here's a link for you Spells
You also get a new feat. If you want to pick that, you can do so, if not I can choose it for you.

"Well, the reward seems proportionate to the hazard. I would like to join this task. In the nature of this task, a dragon bane shortspear would be apropriate. Feel free to add extra features though."

Lucana looks at you and then at your familiar and nods and sets off to making something for you.

(Note: I'm making your's more powerful as a combo item since the other two have an item for each them, and their familiar. I hope that's fine with you.)

She spends a few days making your item and hands you a darkly glowing staff.

Blackstone Staff of Adaption:
Constant powers-
+2 Enhancement to Dex
+3 Dodge Bonus to AC


Staff Powers:
+10 SP (bonus can be accessed while using the item in Staff form, 1/day)
Grants Maximize Spell Feat to Wielder

Short-Spear Powers:
+3 Enhancment Bonus
Dragon Bane-+5 Enhancement Bonus and +2d6 Damage to dragons
Spell Feeder-Damage done by Spear is transferred to temporary spell points able to be used within 2 rounds. Temporary spell points are used first, and lost after 2 rounds. No more than 18 SP can be stored at a time, multiple attacks can stack, but the 2 round limit still applies to each individual attack. These are lost if the Spear is changed to the Wand or the Staff

Wand Powers:
Grants knowledge of 3 spells of your choice. These spells are permament, but can be of any level and can be cast by you when holding the wand, with your own SP, just as if it were a normal spell in every way. They use a CL of x2 your own CL level, to a max of CL 20.

This staff can be changed between the three as a move action, once per day for each level you have. Each use of the item is a standard action.

It is intelligent. It's purpose is to slay dragons. It's got an alignment of Chaotic Neutral, and will do everything it can to kill any dragon in sight. I'm making it different than the book says, but it has an ego of 19. It has the personality of a gruff, dwarven wizard and favors the use of powerful spells, FYI.

(Don't be afraid to grab any 3 spells you want. If you want to snag a 9th level spell, thats fine, you just won't be able to cast it very often. :p )

You also level, so feel free to level your character, and post the new stats in my other thread as DZ will be doing.

does the item communicate? if so, how. I want to make a nice post of first touching it.
Is its hate only for chromatic (evil) or also for metalic (good) dragons

Posted: Sun Jun 19, 2005 1:59 pm

Yes, it speaks Common, Dwarven and Draconic, as well as Telepathy. It's personality limits it from communicating with Telepathy to only the most dangerous and dire circumstances. If it wants to talk and tell you something, you'll get a dwarf voice audible to all.

Both, if you wish to have a friendly encounter with a dragon, you end up with a contest of wills unless you've left the item somewhere. Even then, if you KNOW you are going to encounter a dragon and try leaving it it will struggle for control as well.

As Jakal reaches out and takes the staff, he cant help but to comment

"I asked for a shortspear, didnt I?"

Suddenly the staff changes shape from a staff to a wand and into a spear.

"Happy now?" an irritated dwarf voice asks

A little bewildered, Jakal replies "yes, uh, what are you?!"

"(see above description)"

The staff changes into the wand and glows, you see three runes appear on the wand and it flares with a dark yellow light.

"Ahh, good choices. I like blasting those horrid reptiles. Hmm, whats that. You've encountered a black haven't you? Where is it?!"

"Actualy, 2 blacks, a youngster male and its mother. Would you mind to help removing an army of minotaurs first so we can finish the dragons at our leisure? We need to find them first anyway."

"Two of them? With minotaurs in our way? Are they working with the arrogant snakes?"

Posted: Sun Jun 19, 2005 3:04 pm
by Oskatat
"Yes they are."

@Kaleb
"O, Kaleb, I think your skills are in high demand now (grin). A supply of acid protection scrolls could be usefull since the big lizards spit acid. Is there some way you could provide that?"

"What are we waiting for then? Anything helping those beasts must be killed. Move out!"

-Blake, if you want to create a scroll, let me know and I can tell you how.-

"We already have been battling minotaurs today, and it might be a good time to rest, so some people can regain their strength."

"Yes, let us make some of those scrolls then."

********************************
What exactly are we doing/ what is going on?

We defeated the minotaurs. We were just discussing the finer point of courtesy when a crash and screams drew our attention. Jakal scouted ahead and found a dwarf and ?something? under a rock. The something was argenta, your search target. she gave some info. The dwarf offered to make items for us if we attacked the dragon who destroyed the home.

I have a very stubborn and seemingly not too intelligent item now

more questions?

-Note: it's been roughly 1 week since you've last fought.-

Lucana says "If you're making scrolls for each of us, I'll cover the gold for it."

-------------
You have your items now, and can do what you wish. The dragon thinks your dead btw.

Choose how many scrolls you want to scribe and I'll calculate how long it takes. You will take an experience hit for writing them though.

Sorry, got roped into helping out around the house. :mad:

Also, if you make a Protection From Elements scroll, it costs 675 gold, and 27 xp. Let me know how many you want, Lucana will cover cost and I'll recalculate your XP.

You each have 39,743 xp at the moment btw. You need 45,000 to reach 10th level. :)
