Nothing like a few tasty slices of mango and pineapple while enjoying the lobotomy of an enemy together.

We still have Mia and Anya working there and the rest of the party can go back there once they settled things in Braavos. Also, unless Bloodrave needs a bit of rest in between, we should not take longer then a day to process Varys and ask our other questions.

Funny thing is, Viserys will now learn about the success of the hybridization efforts from the Old Gods instead of his own people.
 
@Snowfire I know it's old school, but we should also check Varys for false teeth, and it wouldn't be a bad idea to make sure the ol' prison pocket isn't hiding anything Varys might have tucked away for emergencies.

At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if his left leg is a perfectly disguised Construct graft, housing a clockwork mechanism that will spray Wildfyre in every direction if he doesn't tap his toes in a particular way every 10 minutes.

Just his left leg? I wouldn't be surprised if all of his limbs were Awakened Constructs, each slaved to Varys' will.

Why yes, that is in fact the plan :V

Updated version, with @Goldfish paranoia taken into account:

Snowfire said:
[X] Plan Ravens eat Spiders
-[X] "Merely apprehending a heinous diabolist, ladies and gentlemen. Do not be..." well, no point bidding them not to be alarmed.
--[X] Nuri and Maelor go to the Silver Eye to report what has occurred as if just part of another operation. Whilst there, they can check for any cursed items that need our involvement to deal with. Rhaella and Aradia go to the Sealord to explain your actions with a promise for further explanation in more secure (mindblanked) environs. Leave how they do this to themselves, but ask for discretion.
-[X] Sling Varys over your shoulder, Teleport immediately with Dany and Vee to one of the secluded Heart Trees.
-[X] Examine Varys with Greater Arcane Sight before stripping him of all gear, wands, clothing, the lot, and then hit him with a Greater Dispel Magic at max caster level to remove any remaining wards. His Mind Blank item can remain - it will be removed by Vee for the moment it takes to cast Greater Dispel Magic.
--[X] During this process, burn a Divine Insight to have the person with the highest relevant skill check Varys for any non-magical surprises. False teeth with poison/wildfire, etc.
-[X] Feed the Heart Tree sufficient sacrifices to open a safe passage and use the Staff of the Old Gods to Tree Stride to Bloodraven, where the aegis of the Old Gods might shield Varys' from the attempts of other Powers to scrub information from his mind.
--[X] "Uncle, I have brought a gift."
-[X] Interrogate with the full capacity of your magic (Mind Spider, etc.) and anything Uncle Brynden might suggest as well. If possible, have Vee help directly connect Varys to the Heart Tree so that the Old Gods can suck out his mind.

Never fear, dude, Goldfish is here!

Spontaneous Search...it's not just for quickly searching a room for traps and treasure any longer.

...holy carp. That is a nice spell. Updating.

@Snowfire you know Rhaella is going to want to come along right?

And I fully intend to guilt her into not doing so as we need someone to talk to the Sealord. I also don't want her to see what we're about to do here.
 
I don't think Dany and Viserys need to show Rhaella the ghoulish ghoulery they are about to get up to.

Okay, wow.
Can we have our guards wielding scrolls of this?
NO FUN ALLOWED-policy to all smugglers :drevil:

It would be a very good command activated spell to place on magic items for our guards.

And for ourselves as well.

Good idea, egoo. I've known about this spell forever, but didn't think much about it until I needed to come up with magical way to avoid giving Varys a full cavity search.

OOC: Just because Varys was taking taking reports from imps, does not mean he takes routine reports from his 'little birds' in person. Also for anyone whose SoD would be endangered by high level Varys when he has not gone adventuring, well as you can see he has had a lot more free time than you guys previously thought.

Cautiously hopeful Varys gets away, first time I've ever felt so @Artemis1992, I think I get it now.
 
Snowfire said:
Eternal wands, my dude. Eternal Wands.

Meh. Those are neat and all, but for something like Spontaneous Search, which is just as effective at 1st level as at 20th, a command-activated Wondrous Item is the best choice. No UMD necessary, and quite cheap. These would be used many times per day, not limited to 2/Day like an Eternal Wand.

To put it in a ring would cost us 180 IM, or placing it in something that doesn't occupy an item slot slot would cost 360 IM.

Place one at each entrance to important facilities, give one to our port authority, etc.

Can we... can we make this a standard part of Scholarum gear? :o

I want Eternal Wands of Fireball.

For our baby mages, I wouldn't invest more than the cost of a 1st level Eternal Wand into them, considering all the other stuff they are getting. Eternal Wands of Fireball are pretty expensive and require a 13th level crafter. Anu could make them, but he has better stuff to do.
