The depths of Ice

[Anastasia]

It is cold here.

Such a simple statement that says so much, yet Ice promises so much more. Blizzard winds blow, engulfing everything here as you stand.

Dana merely takes it in, blade and armor at the ready as she grins, "About fucking time. Bring it on."

Miranda checks her bow and arrows and then readies them, along with her greatsword. "It's cold as a devil's heart."

"Colder! Like a yugoloth's heart," Benyen says, looking around, "Like winter without any celebrations, ever."

Debonah merely hovers a foot above the ground, undisturbed by the snow.

I'm just now making spoiler blocks, so paste any spells you cast on them in prep, would you?

Debonah's block in the next post or two.

Calleigh thumps chest first into the snow, leaving a Calleigh-shaped impression before bursting out nearby, flinging snow everywhere and laughing. "Of course it's cold! It's Ice! This is where cold comes from!"

[Anastasia]

What's the CL on Attune Form?

"Winter's heart," Debonah agrees, "Where on Ice are we?"

All around you is blizzard, visibility poor, but nothing is immediately around but frozen wasteland.

[Yuthirin]

CL's not listed on Calleigh's sheet, so we must regrettably assume it's CL 1. 2 hours of charge per charge. Does Debonah need that or can I save the charge on her?

[Anastasia]

What does it come from, a wand?

[Yuthirin]

Yep.

[Anastasia]

Mimimum CL of 5 since it's a 3rd level spell, so 5th level. Anyway, go ahead and line since it's your line.

[Yuthirin]

Oh neat. It'll last 10 hours then.

'We are near Auril's stronghold. The Aurora has had dealings with her in the past, and I thought it would be a good idea to start on non-hostile ground.' Tryll replies.

[Anastasia]

Debonah turns her gaze to you, "You think the Bitter Bitch of Winter is non hostile ground?" Her voice isn't quite disbelieving, but it's hardly welcoming, either.

"Yeah, but she's at least willing to talk to us," Dana says, shrugging. "Bitch helped us get Abigor, too."

"Yeah, and it goes wrong, she can be a good warm up for Shar?" Benyen offers, "Right?"

[Yuthirin]

'Interplanar warfare and desperate times make for very strange bedfellows, Debonah.' Tryll says calmly. 'Facts being as they are, we're unlikely to be immediately attacked here, and we've successfully negotiated with them before. I wouldn't call them friends, per say, but they're as non-aggressive to us as Ice is likely to get.'

[Anastasia]

"Alright," Debonah says, "I've been informed of news that Auril walks Lifasa, so this isn't a complete surprise." Looking ahead, flying along, "This way."

Gimme 1d100.

[Anastasia]

You wander the icy wastes for a short time until you see it ahead. A dogsled, great dire wolves pulling a sled where a minotaur stands. He is frozen over, white scales and patches of ice covering his entire body. He glares ahead but calls, "Those of Aurora, explain yourselves!" His voice carries over the howling of the winds, his sled barely visible and about 50ft away in the storm.

[Yuthirin]

'Passing through on our way to Starline.' Tryll replies.
