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

Reader mode
Anklets of Translocation port you 10ft.

He doesn't need to charge here. And he should even have the minimum distance for it anyway.

He has a fort save attack that disables the enemy. Go for that.

@edit: Also, Dimensional Anchor son.

Done.

And Viserys doesn't have Dimensional Anchor any longer since we retrained it for Dispelling Breath. This dude shouldn't be able to Teleport away; there is too much shit headed his way, from too many directions, for him to avoid all of it long enough to cast. There's no way he's high enough level to have a Quickened Teleport prepared, and I doubt he has anything else that would let him escape when we surprise him.
 
@Just wait for Viserys to have an encounter without any other party-caster nearby.
@See potential sacrifice teleport away.
@Salt.

We have blood wish for that at the moment, and we can get that page soon enough.

Speaking of which, WHEN are we going to get those being made or brought in the Ophaline vault?

In that situation, likely where Viserys wasn't running low on high level spells, we would have him Blood Wish a DImensional Anchor or Chains of Light spell.

Once Valeria the Crafter Arcanum is created, she can start making Pages of Spell Knowledge for lower level spells, but Lya or Rina will have to make the higher level ones, if we don't just decide to purchase them in the Vault.
 
Bucket list for next turn:
- found Inquisition
- buy new crafting materials from Opaline Vault
- make Leshys for the Dawn Fruit Farm
- Diplomatic Meetings
-- Sealord
-- Lys
-- Myr
-- Ned Stark
-- Doran (most likely will want an update)
- Vee: improve local farms on Tyrosh Island
- Lya: make Arcanums (Valeria and Kira), if time permits, research Fungus Forge
- Viserys, Malarys, Garin: Inquisition and getting regular government in Tyrosh functional
- Viserys: lots of gardening
- Dany: grab Softstrider, Liset and Riva to meditate under the Philosophers Tree to find out how to depetrify the Ancient Tree
- Xor, Kira: start reconstruction of Tyrosh
 
@Azel,
Also:
- Braavos week more like 4-5 days, but eh
- Dragonstone actions
- Maybe visit to MS if a day is free? The sooner we deal with this, the less we need to run in circles later, when we'll have no time to make obsidian sand-castles.
 
@Azel, 2-3 days spent on Dragonstone.

We stand to gain:

1. Confirmed pseudodragons to be diplomanced and brought to Sorcerer's Deep as citizens and potential familiars for the magelings
2. Potential Valyrian Dragon Eggs hidden on the Dragonmont and in the vaults of Dragonstone
3. Dragonseeds who we can diplomance
4. Another look at Selyse and Shireen
5. Potential fight with whatever Lannister mage is stationed at Dragonstone (with loot and skulls on the line)

Bottomline -- since Sothoryos has been scrapped, we're doing Dragonstone.

I want those eggs.

Yet, main in-character reason for action is denying anyone our mother's bones.
Maaaaaybe taking all important bones along.
 
@Azel Need to fish ships out of the harbor if we sunk any. Optionally, if they for some reason all just flat out fled the battle aside from the ones Saan's fleet stopped, we should check the records anyway and see about fishing some vessels out from around the Stepstones with Raise From the Deep, to expand our fleet further.

Seeing as how we were at the point where we only just barely had enough war ships for the assault, and we greatly need as many galleons as we can get our hands on for all the shipping we're taking up.

Right, the bones.

Honestly, I'm not even mad that Viserys was stupid and left Rhaella's bones there. It gives us an IC excuse to visit Dragonstone in addition to our egg hunt and our pseudodragon hunt.
 
@Everyone If you're interested in an interlude from the soon-to-be rescued Initiate's PoV, please tag DP with a request.

We need to set aside enough Opaline Vault time to arrange a meeting with the Shaitan and Djinn in order to discuss revealing the Material Plane. That is, if we want to have any hope at all of capitalizing on the information before it becomes common knowledge, and thus worthless.

That would also be a good time to mention the Major Ice Heart to the Shaitan in order to get a feeling for what it's worth to them.

Lya definitely needs to go with us to the Opaline Vault this time, too. Need to get her out there and gaining more XP.

We just need Lya to learn the Raise from the Deep spell scroll we've had for months now. She could cast the spell on sunken ships while Bulabars cast Mending, and Dany and Rina use prepared Make Whole spells. It could be handled in just a few days after she learns the spell.

@Goldfish We should get it out of the way ASAP so we can get those ships manned. In addition @Azel, expanding our fleet creates an excuse to give out tons of minimum wage jobs. A drop in the proverbial bucket, but every bit helps, and it makes us money, which few of the public works projects we're funneling the poor into actually do.
 
hey guys when we get to the final battles against the others will we have an avatar of the old gods on our side cause thats something I want and need?

As concerns were raised about sufficicient details beig available to use ship raising spells, we have an alternative with Fabricate and Suspension.

Shear the base off the supporting sea floor and cast Suspension on the entire mass to raise it above sea level.

This should allows us to retrieve any wreck we come across.
 
That's a viable option for any wrecks that our Triton allies come across, but the benefit to going off records isn't just being able to use Raise From the Deep on them, it is also because such records would be able to tell us where to find them.

On another note do old gods even have an avatar I mean it definitely wouldn't be humanoid?

The Old Gods. from my understanding, are a hivemind of Greenseers.
Most of the are Children of the Forest, but there are Humans within the hivemind as well. There don't seem to be any other species in the hivemind, or if there are they are unwilling to make a big deal about it.

This sort of makes the idea of an Avatar null, since the Old Gods are far too diverse (in opinion and goals) in order to create an Avatar of their power as though they were a single God.
...Although, I guess you could consider Bloodraven to be their "Avatar", since he speaks and acts on their behalf and is essentially their lynchpin in Planetos.

Also, while I fished for Kiras sheet, I noticed that I forgot to post my plans for the Triton trade.

As it is, we stand to gain mainly luxury resources from them. They have easy access to pearls, corals, sea shells, sea silk and ambergris. We can obviously make a good buck by selling those products on, but I want to use them as cheap raw materials for two new businesses.

1. Jewelry Manufactory
This is pretty straightforward. We use the pearls, corals and sea shells that the Tritons bring us and supplement them with gold and gemstones bought abroad. The Manufactory is erected in SD and staffed by former slaves we hire in Tyrosh. Work is done in shifts and we make +5 tools for every 3 workers to increase the throughput.

2. Clothes Manufactory
With Tyrosh giving us access to a supply of high-quality dyes, we can also start to expand into clothes as a luxury good. This too is set up in SD and staffed by former slaves. In the first step, we import the finished cloth (silk, wool, linen, cotton) and only process the sea silk ourselves, but in the future, we can instead start importing raw materials to spin and weave the clothes with automated machinery. The cloth is then dyed and turned into clothes by the workers, using sets of +5 tools again.

I would spin up both operations as separate companies under a holding company that administrates all our manufacturing projects. The other business that should go under that would be the salt mine in Saltcliff. Since Tyene has a good eye for both of these businesses, I would ask her to do the initial setup in return for a 10% share. If she takes on half of the setup cost, I would go up to joint ownership, with her holding 50% of the shares of the operations themselves.

Another few things:
3. Printing Company
Using the magical printing pressed we've cooked up a while ago and giddily waiting for the Philosophers Tree to grant us the invention of movable letters, we can start a business around mass-producing books. We will obviously also let them print propaganda fliers in addition to the totally-not-propaganda-books. This will be spun up under the manufacturing holding until we reach enough literacy and demand to create the first newspaper.

4. Ironworks
The Smelter is currently not properly accounted for in our businesses, so it's time to build a company around it. Main business here is smelting of various ores in the Smelter whenever we are not busy mass-producing steel for strategic reasons and producing finished goods from those metals. We can quickly expand this by hiring skilled slaves in Tyrosh and settling them over to SD.


Thoughts everyone?

To be fair, he was a bitch you have made-up.

Going back to the philosophy of the Threefold Path, aka, Trios. This does not prevent people from bein monks, right? It's not a divine power after all and is a Martial Class. So we could have an adept of Yss follow this philosopy and have a cleric/monk hybrid? Something like:

The OG aren't the type to create avatars. They're working through Bloodraven, his various minions, and us.

If they did empower an avatar, however, it would likely be some sort of Weirwood Treant.

A weirwood treant is a dream of mine.

One weirwood treant in charge of a dozen or more regular treants, all of whom guard the Tree of the Dawn Age.

That's going to be a major question when we next see Bloodraven. I really want a weirwood treant.

Wrong bitch. Lya killed the bitch that Azel made up. This is the bitch's weaker underling.
