Should we not split the party? Maybe send the one that can fly after the fat guy since likely to catch him easily?
 
A magesight would do it. No need for third level spells.

Can we get vee to heal the other person to consciousness and ask the name of the tomb for find the path and then knock him out again or is that not worth it? Also, we should check for quasits - it'll kill the unconscious man and burn down the place.

Invisibility Purge let's everyone see the hidden creature. Vee has plenty of spell slots remaining.
 
Is there any sweeter way to power then over the shattered bones and lifeless carcasses of your enemies?
There's also the lamentations of their women.
What do you think of Whack
Maybe something like Wrack would be a better idea :V
Ugh, If Lya and Waymar were not here, I'd push to ignore the priestess and go grab Illyrio. Cutting the Northern Land East-West trade route with an army of the undead doesn't harm our geopolitical position at all. I'm betting he has a teleport item of some sort (relic?), but needs to escape the anti-teleport wards over the catacombs before he can use it. Or possibly needs to have someone from the outside teleport in to nab him, which is why he needs to get up and out.
High level undead casters aren't good enemies to have.
 
Bad idea, sorry. A Good deity will not like the idea of participating in blood sacrifice.
I'm not sure this is unilaterally true tbh.

Maybe the Weeping Lady would be against blood sacrifice, because she is generally worshipped in Braavos and most of the blood sacrifices back then were slaves.

Wouldn't be surprised if a more Martially inclined Good diety didn't have a problem with it though.
 
@DragonParadox is the other old guy conscious?

If so, @Azel, maybe command the guy who's curse is unbroken to tell the first dude the name of the u...

Misclick. Anyway.
Name of the undead chap if he knows is, that might get around the curse, and I don't care if it dosen't tbh.

Also, Richard/anyone with detect magic does a quasit check.

Of course she does. Damn B-List Villain bitch...

The tactical situation remains. Illyrio has bolted away from his Plane-Shift ticket and as long as he is on the Prime Material, the Wayfinder can track him down, even just the dead body if somebody gets to him before we do. There is no reason to chase him right now, since it's highly unlikely that they have a divination warded hideout out in the steppes or another caster capable of Plane Shift or Teleport in the area. If Illyrio had an item or other means to Teleport, he would be already gone. He will either have to bail on foot, by horse or on a boat. Nothing of that is even remotely fast enough to escape Viserys, even he drains every of his spell-slots, down to the last cantrip.

[X] Follow your new guide hopefully to the priestess
-[] Cast Find the Path, targeting the tomb of the High Priest.
-[] Trust the spell over the guide, but keep him along just in case.

Waking up the Undead would be very, very annoying. Waking them up on our terms might be beneficial, though they would probably demand the Golems back, since they are theirs.
Definitely should have a look at it anyway, since we might learn something nice there.

Edit: Dammit. Can't this unwashed bastard not even keep a name straight? :mad:

Fine, but I will have that fucker's head on a stick.

But you're right, priorities.

Can't have some trumped up whore causing a budget zombie apocalypse, until we complete the Plane of Beach Parties all our stuff is stuck in this shithole.

[X] Azel

I hope he runs, I hope he runs far and fast, I hope he spends the rest of his short, short, life looking over his shoulder in fear and digging the biggest bolt hole he possibly can.

He's only going to die tired.

I'm sorry, but he's going to get a nice rest while he sits down and answers questions. All of the questions.

Braavos has the Moonsingers. The Weeping Lady is mainly based in Lys.

I personally wouldn't count on Good deities being chill with blood sacrifice, but eh. I've been surprised before. I just think that the Lys situation as a whole is too delicate to risk getting the Weeping Lady involved since there's too great a chance she might disapprove.
 
We are really not prepared for fighting Undead right now. Spells are depleted, we have the wrong buffs in place, and one of our Clerics isn't here

I mean, you could always ask beforehand?

I would be surprised if a God didn't already know we did a shit ton of blood magic, honestly.

Plus, we've only interacted with like, 2 Good dieties throughout the entire quest, and that was all before we really got on the whole blood sacrifice train.

I feel as though everyone assumes all Good Dieties are going to be stupid and stubborn when we've only really seen that kind of behavior from Bahamut and Tiamat.

We could just ask. If the clergy and the goddess agrees we can place other effects on the Heart Tree other than hiding it from everyone else. They can defend it too.

Anyway, what do we want from the Old Gods when we overpay? I'm with @Tomcost of asking for a Weirwood Leshy, or a treant. What do we do with it though? Or how about an ooze of Ceruelean Sign that can reproduce?

Then we do this suboptimally.

I mean, Viserys almost never breaths fire, Vee and Marlays have a fair amount of juice, we might be able to diplomance the undead, (we can say we're still doing stuff like capturing enimies if they want to talk, we'll be back in an hour or so) after clearing up the personell, and I want that cleric.

Waymar and espically Richard can blend very well, and Maelor... Well his combat effectiveness is unchanged.

Oh, and unfriendly undead swarms are bad for looting! :D

We convinced the Archon's on the value of blood sacrifice, their only doubt, was whether feeding the Malor to Yss was just exchanging one evil for another, if they had known how chill and LN Yss is, then they would have had no complaints at all, so that proves Good outsiders can be convinced to accept blood sacrifice, it's just a matter of the right targets, and only sacrificing to beings that aren't evil.

Sorry, I've just got zero interest in potential complications. This is an insanely delicate operation that might blow up in our face even if the Weeping Lady doesn't get involved. And even if we need help, we have two different gods we know are perfectly chill with blood sacrifice who could lend a hand in exchange for a meal.

Yeah. A nat 20 was what convinced them. How about no, let's not try to convince the Good deity to go along with blood sacrifice.

It's a good thing we didn't reapply the buffs on the way here, I guess. Now at least we've got a few spells to spare for anti-undead buffs.

Lol, Azel has been namevoted but he delagates to Goldfish who still has no plan.

How about we give the wayfinder to the guard, seeing as he saw the cleric in person already?

I just don't think she deserves the free power up, nor do I want the resulting lack of Metagic Feat for Viserys because then these nutters will push to retrain even more Draconic Feats and he will be less of a Genius Emperor.
 
@Goldfish You should probably cast a vote as Azel is delegating to you, and everyone was delegating to Azel.

We had way lower diplomacy scores then, and we didn't even know Yss alignment, I expect we would need at most a 10, to convince an Archon to accept sacrificing demons to Yss now.

Because now we can actually properly answer their main question, how can we be sure sacrificing it isn't just trading one evil for another, because now unlike then, we actually know Yss is not evil, as opposed to then where we just didn't think he was evil
