Yet more hoarding (Surraruthru)

[Anastasia]

"Could you use that?" Kascha asks, "It'll give us an idea of how much acid we need."

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru casts an Acid Arrow at the stone!

Using Melf's Acid Arrow, CL 24, 12d4 Damage.
> roll 12d4 Acid Damage!

[Anastasia]

Are you counting the rounds it lingers in that damage?

[Iron Dragoon]

Yes. I figured you could extrapolate when it would expire vs how much damage was needed, so I just did the whole thing to save time.

[Anastasia]

Cool, just needed to know. Thanks.

Acid sizzles against the sandstone. It slowly eats away at it, waters diluting it as it goes on. The second half of the effect is reduced a good deal by it, sitting acid becoming less and less potent as it mixes with the cold waters.

Ebony reaches out and touches it, her finger unburned by the caustic substance. "A start, but we need a stronger single blast or a consistent source that produces more to offset the water's dilution."

"I'll handle it," Kascha says, "All the preparations and I didn't think to include an acid spell or disintegration." She laughs a little bit, "I should really have known better. Seira always says that successful anticipation is the key to being a wizard. Please step back." Kascha centers herself, taking out a stick of golden chalk. She sketches patterns around her, arcane diagrams that come to life in neon light. Seven of them, all around her and with words of Celestial forming on them. Too fast to read, blurring by rapidly as she begins to chant, "The Weave is my blood and the Weave is my magic. I offer my blood and I offer my magic, let magic reply! Queen of Dreams and Princess of Dragons, unbind the Weave to my will!"

A great orb of acid appears in Kascha's hands, hissing against the water. Kascha hurls it right at the already damaged point of the wall, throwing it with all she has.

Empowered orb of acid. 15d6*1.5 if she doesn't roll a 1.

The sphere of acid hits the weakened section of wall, eating right through it. An hole the size of your fist is now visible in the wall. The wall's maybe a foot or so thick, and oddly, you can see the water doesn't go into the hole. It just stays outside of it, leaving what lies beyond free of water.

"Whew," Kascha huffs, drawing her greatsword, "Now give me a little bit and I'll just tear open a hole. Thew all's weakened and there's a gap to work with, so it shouldn't take long."

[Iron Dragoon]

"If you wish, I can try to turn the water surrounding it to acid and we can wait."

Totally missed that I have Turn Water to Acid prepped.

[Anastasia]

"Oh yes-" Kascha starts, then frowns, "Surraruthru!" Her ioun stones whirl around her head in a storm, "Then why did you need me to use a Wish to make that hole?"

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru stares her dead in the eye.

"... I forgot I had memorized it. Turning water to acid isn't something I really tend to do."

So saying, he casts the spell on the area!

Since I'm out of tithe house, could you do the damage and rolls for it? CL should be 24.

[Anastasia]

Certainly.

Kascha steps back, though Ebony doesn't bother. The water around her turns into acid, eating at the stone but not the angel. It simply doesn't burn her or react to her in any way. Meanwhile the stone is quickly eaten away as a great quantity of water around it is turned to hissing acid, the already weakened wall giving way. A large hole is now there, more than enough to go in through. Water still refuses to enter, keeping within dry.

Ahead is a square room, full of empty shelves and lit by fireless torches on the wall. A few jars lie on the floor, generally empty. There's a door on the other three walls, each one closed and leading further in.

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru darts through the water, shooting into the open air of the room, unfurling his wings and gliding to the ground, inspecting the room and listening for anything to discern a difference between the doors.

[Anastasia]

Ebony follows, coming in and landing on her own two feet. She mutters a single word and she is dry, "Would you care to be dried?" she asks.

> roll 1d20+8 Kascha
<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 16 > [d20=8]

Kascha comes in a moment later, managing to land in a crouch and rise. "Please," she says, dripping icy-cold water.

Listen check then.

[Iron Dragoon]

"No thank you, Ebony. It doesn't bother me."

Roll for me again? Thanks.

[Anastasia]

<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 51 > [d30=20]

It seems quiet. No noise and no sign of anything unusual. Ebony goes to study a glass jar, "It looks like good quality glass. Clear, no imperfections. Better than made by most mortals," she observes. "But beyond that I know not."

[Iron Dragoon]

"I say the left door then."

[Anastasia]

The door isn't locked. In fact, the lock's been broken and offers no resistance. Ahead is another room, a door opposite this one and to your current right in this room. More shelves are here, as well as some opened and empty chests.

<Penuche> Kotono invokes Penuche's magic: < 17 > [d20=11]

Ebony looks about, "There's some copper coins in these chests," she remarks, "But the dregs of them. Whatever this is, people have been here before."
