Off to the see the (dragon) wizard! (Jaela)

[Anastasia]

"Yes," Mirima only pauses one moment to add, "Be strong, they're merely worms," she murmurs to you, "I trust that you have the willpower to finish this."

Quick note, what's the duration of the spells you applied?

[Corwin]

"I know, it's just...."

good hope is 28 min, the other two are 28 rounds.

[Anastasia]

Mirima nods once and goes on ahead, throwing the door open. Here is a small antechamber, barely more than 10ft wide and long. A few ancient chairs lie here, rotted. There's a door leading further in, closed. As you view it, you momentarily see iron bands of light snare around it.

[Corwin]

Taking ten for K:A 60, Spellcraft 52 on the bands of light

[Anastasia]

Looks to be a beefed up arcane lock spell, making it much harder to batter down or break than normal for that manner of spell.

[Corwin]

"Arcane Lock, coming down in three... two..."

Greater Dispel Magic.

21:16 <CATS> roll 1d20+30
21:16 <Kobot> CATS rolled 1d20+30 --> [ 1d20=1 ]{31}

[Anastasia]

Today from the Halls of Iddy Dice Rolling....

No good - the magic by it withstands your dispel, despite all you throw at it.

Mirima draws her blade, "Shall we do this the hard way?" she asks, "It's only a door, we will overcome it as surely as we overcome the rest."

[Corwin]

"The spell's just a lot stronger than I expected, the basic version pretty much falls over itself trying to unlock the door for you when you prod it," Jaela responds, not willing to give up on the magical solution just yet.

21:30 <CATS> roll 1d20+30
21:30 <Kobot> CATS rolled 1d20+30 --> [ 1d20=8 ]{38}

[Anastasia]

There's a shudder as the iron-gray magic around the door reappears, shaking and breaking apart into nothingness. There's no sound to it, purely a visual representation as your dispel shatters the magic before you.

"Finally," Mirima says, "Lead the way, love." She has her sword ready, body tensed and ready to pounce. Her red hair is a bit sweat-stained, hanging heavy in the humid jungle air. Her gaze is fixed ahead, sharp as can be.

[Corwin]

Jaela opens the door, heading inside!

[Anastasia]

Within is a large room, gilded with crumbling gold and marble. Pillars advance ahead, froming a path to the center of the room, 60ft ahead. In there is what was once a pool of water, now dry. Beyond that is open space with the remnants of pots and troughs of dirt. One can hardly spend too long looking ahead, however, nor to the doors that lead deeper within.

The dry pool ahead is filled with dozens and dozens of red worms. They're already starting to move as one.

"Another batch of them. Have courage, Jaela, because you'll get to see them smashed like the vermin the are." Mirima's already sprinting ahead towards them as...

Init.

[Corwin]

17:57 <CATS> roll 1d20+13
17:57 <Kobot> CATS rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=13 ]{26}

[Corwin]

As a reminder, I'm not flat-footed due to Foresight, so if there's anything nasty to counterspell I'll do it.

[Anastasia]

> roll 1d20+11 Mirima
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 20 > [d20=9]
> roll 1d20+18 worm hivemind
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 30 > [d20=12]

Init is Worm Hivemind (30) > Jaela (26) > Mirima (20)

Before you can do anything, you feel your perspective beginning to flip. Up is down, left is right, all the world's a spinning blur.

"Wh-" Mirima begins, grimacing as her charge is momentarily interrupted.

It's reverse gravity with a custom aspect tacked on to disrupt your sense of perception and make it harder to deal with. Going to counter?

[Corwin]

[18:21] <@Annerose> roll 1d20+35 I'll try
[18:21] <Serith> Annerose roll for Serith < 55 > [d20=20]
