Afina is planar protected thanks to one of her swords but she also casts spells to resist acid and cold for when things get a bit more fierce than normal planar conditions. In addition to her usual mage armour and moment of prescience spells she also has the benefit of her shadow form spell, turning her into a figure of monochrome greyscale that the eyes have just a bit harder a time capturing and more importantly allows her to slip through walls and magical barriers with ease.

She also has a scroll of Gate for their exit, but for getting there they must rely on someone like Tepen or Vul'lath to make a gate to Gehenna on the outlying slopes surrounding Hopelorn.

The True Seeing ability of those golems is going to be a problem. I can work with it, but I'l need to be creative.

[Anastasia]

So are y'all gonna do planar protections? Looking for someone to just declare what's being cast and set up so we can get this on the road already.

[Ebiris]

Afina's cast all her buffs. If anyone wants a buff that's on her spell list she'll provide it. If anyone wants a buff that's not on her spell list they'll have to cast it themselves or ask someone else.

Per nagging post:

Sylvie can cast attune form on herself, Surraruthru, Tryll, Calleigh, the Master, and Tannin. She can also cast overland flight on the Master so everyone has flight.

[Anastasia]

Done and with a new stat block to track it. Iddy and Yuth, note any buffing and then we'll get this on the road.

Black. The portal is pure black, nothing but darkness as you fall. You plummet into void, leering faces of shadow watching as you pass through the portal. It is silent. A silence where your own breathing sounds as loud as thunderbolts. It is dark here, no light. You hover above a slope of dull black stone, a sharp angle one slip away from a nasty tumble. It's cold here, a cold that it held back by your magic but still bone-chilling. You grow numb in moments, body feeling like little more than a puppet loosely connected to your awareness.

Sylvie floats around and peers, in a whisper that seems as loud as a shout, "This way," she points downwards. "Keep your eyes open. If I have to use 21, it'll probably be like a beacon to anything here, so that's an absolute last resort unless I get a free shot at Lixer himself."

The Master lands in the air, not missing a single step. "So cold that it freezes the heart," he speaks, a muted murmur to himself that sounds like a bellowing yell to all of you. "This is the chill of death Tempus warns us not to fear."

Tannin shivers and draws his cloak tighter around himself. He just nods, starting to fly downward.

Calleigh and Tryll float silently in the void. Calleigh keeps quiet, staying near the others.

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru follows along, keeping an eye out for threats and hiding places alike, looking to take advantage of the darkness himself.

Since the party has noted taking pains to be quiet, I'm going to call for everyone to make a Move Silently check. Calleigh, would you roll for Afina and Surraruthru, as they're currently unavailable? Thanks.

The party goes down the endless slope as silently as it can, flying. There are only the barest noises. Breathing. The slight flap of Afina's wings. The rustle of Tannin's rapier. Yet they still sound too loud. As you go down, there is a sudden, soundless voice in your minds. 'The only noise of this place is the cries of the dying.'

The darkness above you stretches apart, like flesh rent asunder by claws. It is 15ft above you and 40ft away. Two of them floating in the air, unbothered by gravity. They appear as human sized dogs, pale as death and covered in armor. Each has two heads, each mouth open and with a far too long tongue covered in sharp metal thorns.  Just behind them is a set of glowing green eyes and a shadowy black cloak.

'You will fall!'

Initiative here.

Don't hate me, Iddy!
