Yet more hoarding (Surraruthru)

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru winces.

"Ebony, are you okay? I don't remember getting hit with that... Here, let me, um, help."

Surraruthru starts casting Limited Wish, using it to emulate Silence!

Casting Limited Wish, CL 24 for Silence on the room.

[Anastasia]

Silence falls on the room. Ebony nods and goes forward, taking the chest. She's able to pull it with a silent grunt, removing the chest as she's peppered with rays over and over. Surely over a hundred by the time it's out.

"There, that's the first -" Ebony gets out, before suddenly the light of the glass orbs intensifies. Blindingly bright white beams of light fly, arching around in zig-zags before going out the door, one at each of you.

Kascha eeps and dives to the side, the beam missing her. But Ebony and Surraruthru aren't nearly as quick on their feet, hit dead on. They're pulled into the room in a split second, the iron door slamming shut behind them and cutting Kascha off from the two of you. You land on the far side of the room, 30ft from the door and prone. As you do, the orbs begin to silently emit gas, pumping it rapidly into the room.

Fort save vs poison. If I recall, you have diamond body so you're immune to poison, Surraruthru?

[Iron Dragoon]

Yes, sir I do.

"Ebony! Poison! Can you protect yourself or do I need to use Wish?"

Well, that's unfortunate timing for a natural 1.

Unfortunately, Surraruthru's silence spell stops his words. Ebony gets one whiff of the gas and collapses, out cold. Meanwhile...

<Serith> Kobrb roll for Serith < 90 > [d100=90]

Kascha automatically passes the Spellcraft check because her mod is high enough to prevent failure.

Beams savage Ebony. They fire three times as fast, dozens of them slamming into her. Only her protections and the silence prevent her from being utterly obliterated. It's then that a massive burst of fire rips through the door like it wasn't there, molten iron splattering into the gassy room. Kascha is surrounded by a halo of flames, fading as the door and some of the wall around it is melted.

Kascha shouts something blocked by your silence while the gas leaks from the room. However, one of Kascha's ioun stones, a clear cube, whirls around her head, dispelling any gas that gets close. Frowning, she gestures at Ebony and waves you forward, back towards her.

Surraruthru nods and tries to drag Ebony over to Kascha and out of the room!

As you approach, one obvious problem - the beams are hitting her all over. While she may not burn, dissolve, freeze or shock, you do. Getting that close likely subjects you to being hit by some of them.

Meanwhile Kascha drags the chest of pearls away from this entire death trap.

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru decides that taking one or two beams is entirely acceptable and tries to roll Ebony over on top of himself so he can carry her out... While using her as a shield. He should feel bad, but it's the only way with the silence.

[Anastasia]

> roll 1d12-1
<Serith> Kobrb roll for Serith < 2 > [d12=3]

2 beams hit you. Ebony gives 50% miss chance from the cover she provides.

> roll 1d100
<Serith> Kobrb roll for Serith < 96 > [d100=96]
> roll 1d100
<Serith> Kobrb roll for Serith < 16 > [d100=16]

One gets through, a cold beam.

> roll 1d20+12
<Serith> Kobrb roll for Serith < 17 > [d20=5]

> roll 10d6-10 cold damage
<Serith> Kobrb roll for Serith < 25 > [d6=6,1,5,6,2,3,5,2,4,1]

25 cold damage to Surraruthru.

Grabbing Ebony and hustling, Surraruthru is fortunate. Only a few beams come close, most hitting Ebony or missing. One gets him on the tail, a freezing blast that numbs it solid. But he flees out, the blasts stopping once you're out of the room. Sound returns, the scraping of Kascha dragging the chest away followed by her voice, "Hurry, let's get well away from that cursed room!"

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru continues after Kascha, carrying Ebony.

"We should check her for the poison. She passed out instantly."

Kascha nods, one of her ioun stones coming to the fore. A white sphere that glows with light, injuries wiped away from all of you.

Mass heal, 200 HP healed and most conditions negated, including poisoning. Affects all three of you.

Ebony stirs, eyes opening right away. She sits up in a hurry, looking around. After a moment she says, "I was knocked unawares? What transpired?"

Other 8 chests, Surraruthru. It's a 3 by 3 square of them.
