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

@DragonParadox BTW, the highest level Cure spell Viserys can Blood Wish is Mass Cure Light Wounds, unless you're going to let us start using it to duplicate 6th level Divine spells.
 
[X] Use Bloodwish to cast Mass Cure Moderate Wounds

This reeks of a trap.

Edit: Also, I imagine if any of our legion was not filled with contempt for the unsullied already...
Well.... then their will save must be amazing.

Also pushing a group of frightened slaves and servants in front of you in the vague hope that they might delay an oncoming army... *sigh*.

What was out plan for this castle, again?
Are we porting it to SD, or just any random mansions from Tyrosh?
For making houses of education, that is.
 
@Everyone Please reconsider using Blood Wish for something so trivial. We have a perfect viable alternative in the Legion soldier's healing potions. @Deliste made a very good argument for why it's better for the soldiers to share with the servants, so I'll stick to the mechanical side of the coin.

We have yet to see a Daemon, but we are absolutely guaranteed to run into several powerful ones and at least one extremely dangerous Daemon. We confirmed it with all of our Divination last month.

Blood Wish is by far our strongest weapon against them. Right now, Viserys has no backup capable of using Banishment, since Dany went to help with the emergency.

Frankly, the servants' lives aren't worth depriving us of another Blood Wish or different 7th level spell when it's needed later.

Only the fact that we are a very high level caster prevented that being an incredibly successful tactic.

You can't exactly shit talk anything that makes us abuse time.

From the greater perspective of our real enemies that was victory of two mid level spell slots.

A third, high level one too if Bloodwish wins here.

All for the low low cost of a couple slaves they don't even own.
 
[X]Ask the legionaries to share their healing potions

Just as well, but it will cost more time.
Is that less valuable than one spell?
 
The thing I like about this option is seeing our Legion unthinkingly using their supplies to help tormented slaves without hesitation or complaint.

Stories like this are going to make the transition smooth. Even when we have to make decisions the plebs won't like, they'll remember that the men on the ground are the ones helping them, not just a distant leader who they only spy when he deigns to come out into public.
 
The potions can save lives of our soldiers later in drips and drabs though, later on, and this does make a statement. You make a good point with the value of a seventh level spell (and a cha point), but I still feel bloodwish is the way to go; Hands of the King are the hands of the healer, and all that :D
 
In the scheme of the greater battle, it's a poor decision to use Bloodwish.

As a flow on effect it also fails to save more lives, even accounting for the incremental damage done to our Legion, even if you specify the lives of Legionnaires very likely allow more to die by denying us the spell slot.

It is also poor allocation of Glory, you're paying a Baker in Bread by giving Viserys sole credit here.

What else, oh even aside from ongoing effects of the spell slot being lost, technically there could be something watching us.

Bloodwish Heal > Enemy Aoe kills them anyway because we've already used our action and can't interrupt them. Is a viable outcome here.

Etc. Pick any category and Bloodwish is the inferior option.

Edit: Time :oops: as Artemis1992 said but I'm not seeing any arguments from this angle.

Hm... I originally wanted to simply preserve Legion ressources, but this group here isn't going to see battle after taking the palace.

Also, whoever ordered the Unsullied to use the servants as human shields just earned himself a fine hemp necklace.
 
Okay, you guys convinced me.

I'll be helluva salty if it costs us our legioners though. Even a handful.

No one is a greater gossip than the servants and this would allow us to really get them on our side.

This is the best choice, it delays the use of Bloodwish Mass Cure if it ever becomes necessary it can be applied to the defecit in the Legionnaires supplies.

More importantly it will be the Legionnaires sharing their resources.

This is great because it endears the servants to our men, people who will sing their praises and not just a drop in the ocean of gossip about Viserys personally.

Additionally it influences the men, it gives them a direct example of saving a life instead of doing it by proxy of taking one. It's something else to be proud of, to be proud of the name Legionnaire because all armies fight but this is the only one people will be talking of the soldiers healing the wounded.

Some of the dying might die before they manage to get a healing potion in them.
