Ah. That.
Okay, so the keep itself is warded via Bloodwards. This generally negates simple divinations. A powerful mage might get past that, but not likely.
But our Shadow Tower? Those are Epic wards, and there's almost nothing on the plane that can get past those. We put Stannis there because we were feeling paranoid after winning a battle we didn't expect to win.
After that we calmed down and gave him some normal rooms.

That too.
Oh, AND we put him in the same room as our freshly-stuffed Ulitharid.

HOW THE HELL DOES THAT LOOK LIKE A DOG, DAMNIT?!?
Also, looks like combat time. Socialfire ceding to the board mechanics junkies
Wise King Pup with his Crown and Third Eye Jewel of Seeing, he knows what he should not, it haunts his doleful eyes with the secrets they must hold.

Good boy.

So was it a plothole Dragonparadox?
Ser Richard was not carrying the bone, Viserys was (as shown more than once), because you did not specify and barring that it would make the most sense emotionally for him to carry it on his person.

Okay makes sense.

That seems out of character though, considering how many times Viserys has been burned by divination, and the fact that every time it HAS been voted on, discretion always, always won.
Oh well. Thanks for the answer.
Part MDCXLIX: Black Wings Rising
Black Wings Rising
Twentieth Day of the Twelfth Month 292 AC
Light as a reed is the staff of weirwood in your hand, yet still through scales warded by arcane powers you still feel the strength within it, the magics of the earth mated with the yearning for the sky. "Play your games, wretched pawn, and I shall play mine. If the aspect of the Bitch Queen of Dragons cannot lay me low, what hope does a creature so debased as you have?"
So saying you strike the ground with the staff and for just a moment it sings in your hand, the merest echo of the Great Song. Upon a hundred wings an unkindness of ravens rises, black wings against the storm of white, and through a hundred pairs of eyes you see the worlds yet your mind is not clouded. Is this how Bloodraven sees the world? you wonder.
Heedless of peril are your spies as they ascend for they are not creatures of flesh but sorcery made manifest, a raucous cacophony flying into the eye of howling white. Seek you bid them and so they do. Where one pair of eyes may be blinded by swirling snow, a dozen or a score are not so easily fooled.
Here a flash of white shining too bright... there the veil of a wing cutting almost soundlessly though the cold mist.
Through eyes not your own you cast a veil of fire, tinged in blood, and out of the cold heavens a scream of pain echoes upon the wind, like ice shattering.
You take 5 Damage
The Dragon that dives at you jaws agape is not merely white of scale, it is wrought of purest ice as though carved from some ancient glacier. Its scales a thousand shimmering shades as they reflect the fire that torments it: from pale blue to frigid green to crystalline white, its form lithe and graceful in the air. Only its eyes belie its deceptive beauty: blacker than night they are, an emptiness that is more than darkness, a hunger without end that you had seen but once before in far Volantis.
It breathes upon you a cone of icy wind laced with darkness that pulls at your very soul and screams of death beyond death, but against both you are warded. Seals of power flash into incandescence against the darkness, and so you stand unharmed save for the blood still trickling from your hand where you had pried open the scales to work your magics.
Seeing her chance Dany rushes in, hand glowing with pulsing blood-red light like a star of ill omen, and with it she strikes the beast as a hammer blow from the blue. Cracks begin to show in the icy scales, showing the writhing void beneath.
What do you do next?

OOC: Viserys did not roll high enough to identify the dragon, but Dany did, which is why she knew it is a living creature and would be harmed by negative energy.

Was it meaningfully harmed by our fire?
Since it roared in pain you would say yes, though not nearly as much as by the harm spell.

Oh yes, @DragonParadox we cast Freezing Glance beforehand!
Wait, it failed against Harm?

don't forget loot the corpse. a fully living ice dragon is awesome loot super duper awesome loot. But do it quickly just get the shit then run. We do not want to get swarmed with more enemies.

It's already Shaken and reasonably low, so little point with Agonizing.
Our DC for Fire Darts is 21.

Can Danny tell its relative age based on its size DP?
- It would utterly ignore freezing glance. You can't freeze a creature born in hope of oblivion at the end of all life and warmth
- It succeeded, half damage is still a hefty amount

We don't have the spell slots to Quicken a Searing Elemental Fire Dart. I think we only have one 2nd level slot left and no 3rds. We could use a higher level slot, but then it wouldn't be eligible for the rod to Quicken, I think.

Doesn't work like that. Using a higher level slot doesn't Heighten it.
And our Searing is through Blood Price. No adjustment.

She can, i'm not sure the information is worth shouting mid-battle though.
