[Ebiris]

How are the paintings producing shadows? Is it something Perfect Summons would mess with?

[Anastasia]

They simply seem to come from it - the portraits are creating them from nothing. They aren't summons so not subject to that.

[Ebiris]

Alicia scores a line of silver fire down the paintings along the wall on her left side.

70 feet worth of object disintegrating line to play with, focused on the wall and not the shadows but I'll roll damage in case it's needed.

[Anastasia]

A row of paintings are undone by this, scoured clear as silver fire obliterates them. It leaves behind only blackened bits, nothing worthwhile surviving the assault.

Anything else this turn?

[Ebiris]

She'll turn herself large so she has reach to AoO any shadows going by her. That's it.

Just an SLA sunburst, she's not whipping out the big guns for this quite yet.

In a burst of sunlight the shadows are gone, scorched away into nothingness. Latha looks about, only one side of paintings left. To the rest Phoebe merely gestures, a point at them and...

With a scouring of moon fire, the other paintings are burnt away. Nothing remains of them save for remnants as for now, the way ahead is clear.

Free act, that was actually a CL20 encounter, y'all just strong.

[Ebiris]

If we were level 20 a CL 4 encounter would go about the same.

Nodding in approval, Alicia approaches the door ahead of them while Marie begins to sing something jaunty to get them in the mood.

Any magic on the door?

Marie's doing Inspire Heroics. +10 morale saves, +10 dodge AC for everyone.

[Anastasia]

I know. It's just a perspective sort of thing.

The door's not enchanted directly.

[Ebiris]

Having no way to detect or disarm mechanical traps, Alicia burns through the door with the expedient of some silver fire.

[Anastasia]

The door burns away, obliterated by your power. Beyond the door lies a curving, sloped path downwards. It's darker here, with the only light coming from all of you. Obscene and perverse images of sacrifice are engraved into the walls.

[Ebiris]

Alert for any further magical traps or summons or actual entrances to the demiplane, Alicia leads the way down this path.

[Anastasia]

That's easy enough to find - gravity increases the more you step down, and if you fall to your knees, it's enchanted that you'll tumble on down.

"Caution," Phoebe murmurs, "The air and the forces fight against us as we step forward here."

"I see it too," Latha murmurs, a blue cast to her eyes. "We will not bow to Shar's power."

[Ebiris]

Alicia dispels that. She'd probably be fine but Marie is delicate.

[Anastasia]

To your will as a goddess of magic, the enchantment strains and breaks apart completely.

[Ebiris]

Thus they can keep going with no fear of unsightly stumbles!
