A Sword Without a Hilt: A Song of Ice and Fire/D&D 3.5 Crossover

Reader mode
It strikes me that a lot of those research actions might be helped by a legend lore spell. Can we make it a policy to start doing that? Just using the spell when we have spare slots at the end of the day? The Lich's stuff almost certainly qualifies, at the least.
 
Viserys: "I'm only trying to jumpstart a Magical Revolution here, can I conquer you later?"

*later*

Viserys: "Fucking hell... why didn't anyone ever tell me the more you conquer, the more you have to conquer?"

There is a reason I've never suggested visiting the moon.

Edit: Shit yes! Picnic with Lya on the moon! Ask then :D

I was so happy when that annoying bitch was left to starve (well, dehydrate) to death in that empty vault. "It is known" is it!? Tell ya something else that's fucking known, (to the annoying bitch that kept quoting that to Daenerys): I'm never going to have hear you say "It is known" again.

*Ahem*. Yeah. Not a fan of that phrase. It promotes unthinking acceptance of status quo, and I hate hearing it.
 
...To be fair, I don't think there is better way to draw super-precise map of the world, than to teleport on the moon and then to apply telescope in sufficient amount.

... @Duesal?
A new milestone to reach?
 
I still want to hear the story of the god-egg the shaitan killed, and then proceded to build their city inside its geode-like shell.

I've already asked in this direction. I'm trying to figure out how to sacrifice the Red Comet. Part of that is figuring out quick space travel.

We'll need Azel's antigrav paltfom outside Planetos by 299AC, it seems.

And some sort of propulsion/movement-stopping effect for it to eminate, so it could stop debris and scary shit flying in their direction.

Then, just overcharge the shit out of said effect, call Viserys, see a weird picture of a dragon trying to eat a rock 10 times his size, profit

You probably need 9th level spells for that. You could fluff it as Greater Teleport (7th level) if the comet is flying close by, but considering the sizes and distances it should be pretty far.
 
Alternatively, Dany is using the Psychic Creature template, right? She can use analyze dweomer as a spell-like ability without a focus. Have her use that on the staff, and use moment of prescience to boost her will save to see through the magic aura.
 
Preliminary plans, both for the Volantene Coup and our return to Sothoryos in a few days. I don't want to go crazy with buffing yet, because we don't know how long it will be until actual combat starts.

What have I left out and what needs to be changed?

-[X] Viserys, Richard, Lya, Glyra, Garin, Teana, and Dany will travel to Volantis to aid Zherys' coup, smoothing the transition of power and binding him more closely to us.

She would need to be using the Psychometer aspect of the template. Not something we can do right now, but it would be a good idea to use it when time permits.

Depends on how much DP is drawing from Pathfinder, which has Interplanetary Teleport as a 9th level spell.

Since that's not a thing in D&D 3.5, however, and Greater Teleport is technically supposed to have unlimited range, it could work.

With luck we'll get Fiendish Monstrous Spiders that we can use to create spider-fish abominations. :)

Also, before the spiders are sacrificed, next turn we need to have Tyene harvest their venom.
 
I'm also not sure why aren't we using "Tyrosh infosec protocols" with this.

Our involvement should be as hidden as possible from all players in Volantis.
As, you know, fiends have free communes, fucks that they are.

Yes, she seriously needs to harvest them. The poison is extremely good. We should get barrels of the stuff.

Huge-sized Monstrous Spider (Poison save DC 16, Initial Effect: 1d8 Strength damage, Secondary Effect: 1d8 Strength damage)
Gargantuan-sized Monstrous Spider (Poison save DC 20, Initial Effect: 2d6 Strength damage, Secondary Effect: 2d6 Strength damage)
Colossal-sized Monstrous Spider (Poison save DC 28, Initial Effect: 2d8 Strength damage, Secondary Effect: 2d8 Strength damage)

I'm thinking on the merits of outright grafting the poison glands to some relatively mundane creatures so we can have a perpetual supply of that venom. Maybe keep it for a hydra?

Holy shit that's good.

...would you guys mind carving up one of biggest spiders to try and sow his poison-making parts onto a hydra, to make even more poisonous hydra?

...yes, "graft stuff onto a hydra" is now my baseline approach to any problem :p

EDIT: Magpie'd!

It really shouldn't devalue the sacrifices that much, and the venom is very good. Worth it.
