I'd also take some plants and fire creatures. Both the worms and the owb are more dangerous in darkness, so we should take lightsources along.

We don't really have any appropriate Fire-natured servitors ready for this sort of deployment, but we do have some Jesulan, Aquatic Cleric Creature (CR 10, 12 HD) that would work well here.

They're capable of casting 4th level Cleric spells, meaning they can prepare Celestial Brilliance spells, which have a duration of one day per caster level. It would be easy for a couple of them to keep the entire operation continually bathed in light, though it is harmful to Undead creatures. More harmful to Evil Outsiders, however, which includes Owbs.

They can also prepare regular Daylight spells, along with relevant buffs like Mass Resist Energy for dealing with Acid damage.

Not that I remember.

Preliminary vote:
[X] Accept the deal under the condition that you get all bodies to make more servitors.
-[X] "You had me at 'lucrative'."
-[X] Force composition TBD

@Goldfish, I'd want to capture some Owbs for study. Any proposals for that beyond Lindworm + Necrotic Mold?

Watchmoles could help with capture, along with any other Vigilant servitor. The Watchman template comes with an at-will Quickened Dimensional Anchor SLA.

He's also straight up immortal so long as he has even one cleric. We'll be aiming for hundreds if not thousands.

Are glass golems an option we can send into this? They are fragile I know but it's a construct technically.

I would keep the Glass Golems in SD. They're better against spellcasters and are much more aesthetically pleasing to the general populace.

We do, however, have a large number of Mushroom Golems which could work well for this job. They're actually stronger combatants than the Glass Golems.

Can we make Commando Construct golems? That would be cool.

Nope, that template is limited to our Bio-Constructs only.

Viserys mundane lifespan is well over 3000 years without Longevity. With Longevity... well, he'll keep getting bigger from Age Categories, and smarter.

Can't wait for Boomer Viserys.

Viserys: "Back in my day, you had to open a spellbook to learn magic. Now you young'uns have this 'wee-fee' thing. Makes you lazier, that's fact."

Millennials: "Didn't you get your spells from dragon dreams?"

Viserys: "......Damn lazy Millennials, gotta pull yourself up by your boot-straps if you want to succeed."

That means a middling increase to most combat-relevant stats and a major one to flight speed.

That said, I cant remember if you OK'ed Ysandrix having some costum stats to enable her entering a casting class, or if she is stuck with the baseline Wyrmling stats (10/11/10 on Mental stats), which would make any serious casting impossible for her, at least until she is Juvenile in about 20 years.

I think we should get her a gift to mark the occasion, y'all. Either something nice she can add to her hoard, or a helpful magical item, like a Greater Ribbon of Disguise to allow her to assume Human form so she can more easily blend in when she's hanging out with her friends.

It's not every day that a girl has her first Age Category, after all.

To be fair, Viserys is smart enough and good enough at bluffing that I don't think he'll ever really be left behind the times. With his charisma and INT, he can probably intuit the slang kids are using and then shape the next set of slang terms in less than an afternoon.

I could only see the above happening if Viserys was intentionally having fun with the Millennials.

Worst case, he just uses a Cultural Adaptation spell to cheat.

Hell, that one could have been invented by a frustrated Wizard so he could properly communicate with his teenaged children but it ended up seeing much broader use than originally intended due to its great utility.

Holy shit, dude. That's an invasion force. I have a feeling House Adjar might be somewhat startled by the forces we are committing to this endeavour.

I'm sure House Adjar's people will already have one or more sets of Titan's Tools for use in mining the site, but we should probably send a set of our own as well, along with a Lyre of Building and someone to play it. This is an excellent opportunity to set up a solid extrasolar outpost on the Plane of Earth, and we even have a good excuse to do it, since we're acting to secure a very valuable source of revenue from hostile beings.

Doyalistically it's a spell created to handwaved away fiddly bits of tabletop rp that could interrupt the murder hobo ing. See infinite use create water cantrips and low level "okay here's food, don't worry about it," spells too.
