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

Reader mode
Erinyes can't summon Erinyes at all and Bone Devils only have a 35% chance to successfully summon one of their own.
That means there is either a summoning mage or some more and greater devils behind this.

Probably a summoning mage.

We should keep in mind that when we got the following briefing on known infernal forces in Astapor:

  1. 1 Deimavigga
  2. 9 Ashmedes
  3. 25-30 Erinyes
  4. 21-28 Osyluths
  5. 14-21 Phistophiluses
  6. 30-45 Amnizus
  7. 40-60 Hesperians

It listed zero cultists, mages, clerics, nothing. And that's not how devils roll, they always have mortal minions to use and dispose of.

@DragonParadox, we have a majority.

  • [X] Opening Moves
    -[X] Viserys and Dany each cast Chain Dispel (+22 Dispel bonus for each, roll twice and take highest result in each Dispel), using Wild Arcana and Inspired Spell respectively, targeting all of the Devils, not only Dispelling buffs but also those which have been Summoned rather than being truly present. Viserys then casts a Quickened Greater Black Tentacles spell using Blood Wish. She uses a Brilliant Barrier charm to shield the group or Counterspells using her Ring of Spell-Battle and Battlemagic Perception buff, if necessary.
    -[X] Teana casts Friend to Foe on those Bone Devils who were not Dispelled. She uses a Brilliant Barrier charm to shield herself or the group, or her Ring of Spell-Battle to Counterspell, if necessary.
    -[X] Garin targets seven of the remaining Erinyes with a Quickened Darkbolt spell, then casts it again as a Standard Action to target unaffected Erinyes, or Bone Devils if there are none remaining unaffected.
    -[X] Mereth makes a full attack ranged against whichever Devils she believes are in charge of this force or look to be able to get them organized.
    -[X] Benerro targets the largest remaining concentration of Devils with a Radiant Assault spell.
    -[X] Richard and the Seeker wait to engage, or move to defend the group of they come under attack.
    [X] Draw Dark Sister, and sword them to death!

@Goldfish, bit of a random subject, but I was rereading a bit and am on the Varys interrogation mini arc. We should offer that armor mesh that Varys had for our Inquisition agents. Subdermal armor that has zero ASF. 👌 If they don't want it that's fine, but for the ones that do this would be very useful extra protection.

It has no ASF and offers as much protection as a breastplate (+5) as natural armor.

I would like to make it available to any of our people who are willing to undergo the procedure.
 
@DragonParadox, I may be mistaken on this one, but didn't you say Gith will place more orders with us after seeing the performance of the fleshforged beasts?

With the latest order complete we are finally out of "micromanaging orders"-phase with all important places of our Empire defended, and only have bulk orders to do from here on forward.

One for Gith, maybe some for Shaitan, Marud, Genie... would all fit well into the paradigm.
---------‐----------------
Also, I feel like a bit of an ass by pushing through those Permanenced spells now.

Looking back on it, there really, really should've been a reactionary interlude or two about Richard/Waymar/Garin looking at their new-found Scent ability, better perception scores, 10ft speed increase, etc.

The fluff goes as "gains instinctive knowledge of a beast" and somesuch, much like Vee's capstone... and definitely not something that I should have left "sneaked in" like that, for SoD if nothing else >_<

There haven't really been any relevant POV scenes for them where the new abilities could be showcased. @DragonParadox will have a better opportunity for that when we see the interlude arc for Qohor, if he uses Garin's POV.

  1. I'll handle it don't worry
  2. Forge orders coming next month
 
I read it, I fucking read it !!! Six fucking months I read this quest ... :cry:
Once again I want to express my deep gratitude and respect to DP, and to everyone who participated in making this quest what it is ... reading it was unforgettable! I was hoping to take part in the voting, but since it is closed, I will most likely accept in the next one.

On an unrelated note, the only reasonable Astapor map that I found, suddenly someone will come in handy

Damn, that's a very nice Astapor map.
 
Don't forget that the subdermal armor also grants DR 2/- if we use Adamantine for it.
Give the recipient Composite Armor too and you get +12 AC for 0% spell failure chance.

Stack with Shield, Shield of Faith and Barkskin for maximum armoring.
