Elemental Movements

[Nephrite]

Take 10 for 74 on Spellcraft! What do these obviously trap-causing runes do!

[Anastasia]

The runes allow the door to be controlled from afar, looks like.

[Nephrite]

"Cresiel, would you please?" Moore asks. "I'm not interested in waiting for them to open the door for us." He gestures at the door itself. "It looks like they ave magic that allows them to control all aspects of this place from afar."

[Anastasia]

"Of course," Cresiel says, bringing the hammer down - only for the door to juke back, swinging open at the last minute and then slam right back after Cresiel hits air, right at him.

> roll 1d20+20 needs a 20
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+20 needs a 20 --> [ 1d20=1 ]{21}

Which is as effective as slamming a mere door into a solar usually is - not at all. It just bounces off of him, settling back into place.

[Nephrite]

Moore raises an eyebrow.

"Very well, then just take it off its hinges." Moore says.

[Anastasia]

Done and done. Once done, you can see ahead is a large auditorium. You're on the stage, able to see all the chairs ahead. They're empty, with a single stairway in the back leading out.

"This wouldn't be bad if we weren't being lead around by the nose," Jetina frowns, "How many more little pranks does he have lined up?"

[Nephrite]

"We can only proceed ahead." Moore says.

With that in mind he flies forward to go to the stairs, fully expecting something to prevent that...

[Anastasia]

"Tiresome," Cresiel declares as you fly out - only for clapping to be heard as you cross the stage.

"Bravo!"

"A magnificent theory!"

"Again! Again!"

Ghostly, indistinct images appear in the seats, filling them all up. They look vaguely like efreet, but it's hard to tell. "Go again, go again!"

[Nephrite]

"While part of me is sad that I can't simply give you all a grand performance, I'll have to decline." Moore says as he proceeds on.

He'll be doing regular Spellcraft checks for 74 every so often for anything magical in the area that may present issues.

[Anastasia]

As you head to the stage, you can see evocation magic is gathering in the audience - something it do with force magic.

[Nephrite]

"No, thank you." Moore insists. "Jetina, would you please help me with this by dispelling it?"

Both of us are tossing a Greater Dispel Magic at it.

[blockquote]Rolled 1d20+20 : 17 + 20, total 37[/blockquote] Moore Dispel
[blockquote]Rolled 1d20+20 : 6 + 20, total 26[/blockquote] Jetina Dispel

[Anastasia]

Your dispel hits, the images and the building evocation both dashed by your magic.

[Nephrite]

"It looks like your plan is coming apart at the seams." Moore announces. "Maybe you should send your mercenary friends after us so you can just surrender."

With that, he continues along towards the stairs.

[Anastasia]

The moment you say that, the floor beneath you falls away, a trap door.

Which as you're flying, is as effective as a cup of water to put out all of Fire.

[Nephrite]

"Honestly, this is getting embarrassing." Moore says. "The slaad are much better at this."

A sigh as he continues along. "Honestly, this is barely above a prank at this point. I'm offended for the sake of all fey kind, really."
