Epic Thread Solar Contest #5

[Vox Clamantis]

Since it's a Touch+Flatfooted-2 it most definitely hits. FYI my shield floats though, so no droppage.

First a question for you as DM: Since I'm immune to my own Sphere's effects, and it is corporeal, does it count as an object?

No. The Sphere is weightless, therefore it has no mass. The caster passes through his own Sphere unharmed, but you can't grab something that has no substance.

[Kobold-Bard]

Kewl.

Use Mind Blast again. Will DC33 or Stunned for 12 rounds.

Either way Sphere Control Check: (1d20+34)[44]
Move Sphere 20ft towards Solar.

[Vox Clamantis]

Will Save vs Stun (1d20+28)[42]

From that same distance, the angel points and calls out a third word of power.

Power Word, Kill.

Unless you've healed somewhere along the line, that may be the end of it.

[Kobold-Bard]

Firstborn Guardian = Immune to Death Effects. Thought it would be that easy did you?

I will use Overwhelming Thoughts again. As you know Will DC34 x2 or Dazed for (1d4)[1] rounds.

Sphere Control: (1d20+34)[46]
Moves it 25ft towards you, putting it 30ft from you. Don't worry, I know you'll move (I'm not that dumb) but meh.

[Vox Clamantis]

First save (1d20+28)[38]
Second (1d20+28)[30]

With a mildly frustrated look, the Solar flies around the Sphere and moves to a different side, 75 ft from the Sphere and 50' from you. And casts a spell.

Flamestrike.

(15d6)[55] Reflex DC 22 for half.

Overwhelming Thoughts: Usable in 3 rounds
Awe of Dantalion: Available
Whirlwind Breath: Available
Sphere of Annihilation: Usable in 1 round

Very singed, frozen and injured, but at least able to see Krall suddenly felt very old.

"Any chance you want to talk about why we're locked in a Death Match?"

Use Awe of Dantalion. No offensive actions and Fort DC or Blind for [roll]1d4[/roll] rounds.

Control Check: See below

(OOC: Sorry this is taking so long. If you want to call a tie and give someone else a go I understand.)

[Kobold-Bard]

Control Check: (1d20+34)[43]
Sphere moves 20ft, making it 50ft between you and it.

[Vox Clamantis]

Solar's save:

Fort - (1d20+26)[39]

Regardless of the result, he casts Heal on himself, bringing him up to full. And moves again, still 50' from you but now 100' from that pesky Sphere.

Soooooooo.......

Control Check: (1d20+34)[48]
Moves 25ft towards you, it's 75ft from you.
Fly behind you and....attempt a Grapple (+13 [Cha Mod] from Scion of War)
Grapple: (1d20+33)[53] - Nat 20 -YAY

[Vox Clamantis]

Hmm. The Solar has Escape Artist ranks, but they're lower than his Grapple check. You rolled very well...

Grapple - (1d20+39)[54]

Wow, but the Solar beat it anyway. That's majorly crap luck, dude.

[Kobold-Bard]

That was the best I could do. This battle will never end. Your move.

[Vox Clamantis]

Since you're so close, the Solar makes a full attack...

But I'm not dead. Yay Delay Death.

[Kobold-Bard]

Control Check: (1d20+34)[48]
Move it **ft

[Vox Clamantis]

But I'm not dead. Yay Delay Death.

Wait, are you serious?! LMFAO!

So, um, if you're still alive...it's your turn.

[Vox Clamantis]

How often can you use that heal...because this really will take forever if you're healing up to full every five rounds...

[Kobold-Bard]

My turn's above you. The Sphere moves 25ft, leaving it 50ft from you.

(Since sooner or later you'll fail a save against Mind Blast, and those 12 rounds will give me enough time to Annihilate you, wanna call it a win for me? If not feel free to continue.)

Edit: 250HP + Greater Restoration every 5 rounds til the end of time.

[Vox Clamantis]

Edit: 250HP + Greater Restoration every 5 rounds til the end of time.

Wow. Nothing personal, but that's stupid.

The Solar could kill you in four rounds, but not if you're running in circles waiting for him to fail a save.

We'll call this a draw. It's not worth playing out.

~Gabriel

[Kobold-Bard]

Damn, I really hoped you'd go for that

Agreed. I'm happy with a draw.

Thanks for the playtest, and sorry for wasting your time like this. Now I have to reallocate that Spell Mantle money.

Don't just take my word on that. Ask Djinn. I'm by no means an authority. Just some bloke who tends to voice his opinion too often.
