Tower of Deadly Evil: Archdeacon GX, CHAMBERS!, Arudin and Jack Simth.

[Cadian 9th]

DM

The room you 4 stand in is 100ft wide and 100ft deep. There are several burning torches on the walls, and the carpeted floor is a dull red. At the north wall is a door, in the center of the wall: a large double door with a big heavy wooden look and metal doorknobs. A plate of metal fixed on the door reads Room 1 -"Business as Usual...".

The Eastern wall has 4 cubes, which glow with magic. They are signed as "Magic-Mart". A sign reads "Re-Rolls! Control your fate. Now for just 500gp, max 3 per customer, not available anywhere else. If we sell out, you miss out!"

The Western wall contains a series of empty Potraits. The Southern Wall has 4 "Phone Boxes", labelled "Save? Reload?"

You are aware of some rules, as listed on each phone box. You cannot create an effect that would render you unkillable. You cannot teleport outside of the room you are in. You cannot burrow beyond the boundries of the room you are in. You may not step on the grass.

Your objective is to reach the top floor. Says a glowing orb like creature, in a musical tone. Once you have, you will be rewarded! He says, before floating around and fading away.

Do as you wish here, buy any magic items etc, heal, cast pre-combat spells, talk if you want.

[Arudin]

Raginmund
A tall man with a mane of wild brown hair leans against one of the walls. He appears to be wearing plate armor that is at least one size too large for him.

Upon hearing the orb's message, he slowly walks towards the glowing cubes. "I don't know exactly what those are... but it won't hurt to have one anyway," he says. "Hell, I'll get two." He takes the required amount of gold from a belt pouch, and pays for both his re-rolls.

Turning back to the orb, Raginmund points at the southern wall and asks, "What are those?" in a skeptical manner. "I don't trust that these box things can honestly 'save' me..."

[Jack_Simth]

Rocky & Bullwinkle

The stoic Rocky barely seems to react to everything, while the raven perched on his shoulder seems interested in all that goes around. The Raven speaks, and the speaking is followed by the slight sound of a wind, as Rocky moves to finalize the purchases, unfolding the portable hole and standing there as the appropriate amount of money floats up to pay the cashier, such as it is. "I'll take the remaining two fate control tokens, please."

A slight wooshing sound is heard, and Rocky turns towards the tall man with a mane of wild brown hair; and the raven quoth "Eh, the Big Guy can always use a bit more luck that he has. Might be a waste... but isn't usually, and those things do seem to radiate magic."

Hatchling Phaerimm Racial Traits & Features: Aberration Type, Spells as a Sorcerer of Character level as spell-likes, Detect Magic, Flight, Feather Fall, Immunity to Polymorph and Petrification, SR 11, +2 Natural Armor, -6 Str, +6 Dex, +2 Wis, +2 Cha; Size: Tiny
Ghost Traits & Features: Undead Type, Con -, +4 Cha, Incorporeal, Rejuvination, Manifestation, Telekinesis, Malevolence; Natural Armor applies on Ethereal Plane (where Ghost is not Incorporeal)
Evolved Undead-6 traits & features: +6 Natural Armor, Deflection increases by 6, Six Spell-Like abilities (CL = HD), Fast Healing 3, +12 Str, +12 Cha
Undead Racial Traits: No Con, Darkvision-60, Immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, phantasms, patterns, and morale effects), Immunity to poison, sleep effects, paralysis, stunning, disease, and death effects, Not subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, ability drain, or energy drain. Immune to damage to its physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution), as well as to fatigue and exhaustion effects, Cannot heal damage on its own if it has no Intelligence score (me has Int), although it can be healed. Negative energy (such as an inflict spell) can heal undead creatures. The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature’s Intelligence score, Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless), Uses its Charisma modifier for Concentration checks, Not at risk of death from massive damage, but when reduced to 0 hit points or less, it is immediately destroyed, Not affected by raise dead and reincarnate spells or abilities. Resurrection and true resurrection can affect undead creatures. These spells turn undead creatures back into the living creatures they were before becoming undead, Undead do not breathe, eat, or sleep.
Aberration Features: (negligible)
Incorporeal Traits: An incorporeal creature has no physical body. It can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons or creatures that strike as magic weapons, and spells, spell-like abilities, or supernatural abilities. It is immune to all nonmagical attack forms. Even when hit by spells or magic weapons, it has a 50% chance to ignore any damage from a corporeal source (except for positive energy, negative energy, force effects such as magic missile, or attacks made with ghost touch weapons). Although it is not a magical attack, holy water can affect incorporeal undead, but a hit with holy water has a 50% chance of not affecting an incorporeal creature. An incorporeal creature has no natural armor bonus but has a deflection bonus equal to its Charisma bonus (always at least +1, even if the creature’s Charisma score does not normally provide a bonus). An incorporeal creature can enter or pass through solid objects, but must remain adjacent to the object’s exterior, and so cannot pass entirely through an object whose space is larger than its own. It can sense the presence of creatures or objects within a square adjacent to its current location, but enemies have total concealment (50% miss chance) from an incorporeal creature that is inside an object. In order to see farther from the object it is in and attack normally, the incorporeal creature must emerge. An incorporeal creature inside an object has total cover, but when it attacks a creature outside the object it only has cover, so a creature outside with a readied action could strike at it as it attacks. An incorporeal creature cannot pass through a force effect. An incorporeal creature’s attacks pass through (ignore) natural armor, armor, and shields, although deflection bonuses and force effects (such as mage armor) work normally against it. Incorporeal creatures pass through and operate in water as easily as they do in air. Incorporeal creatures cannot fall or take falling damage. Incorporeal creatures cannot make trip or grapple attacks, nor can they be tripped or grappled. In fact, they cannot take any physical action that would move or manipulate an opponent or its equipment, nor are they subject to such actions. Incorporeal creatures have no weight and do not set off traps that are triggered by weight. An incorporeal creature moves silently and cannot be heard with Listen checks if it doesn’t wish to be. It has no Strength score, so its Dexterity modifier applies to both its melee attacks and its ranged attacks. Nonvisual senses, such as scent and blindsight, are either ineffective or only partly effective with regard to incorporeal creatures. Incorporeal creatures have an innate sense of direction and can move at full speed even when they cannot see.

Garathor Reyvad

Between the man with the raven and the one in the oversized armor stands a being that could well be considered the odd one out of the lot. Towering overhead, the Stone Giant stands nearly fourteen and a half feet tall, his immense blade sheathed across his back, and despite his size it still looks rather large for him -- although his heavy musculature dispels any doubt to his ability to wield it. Glancing around curiously, he folds his hands behind his back and looks up towards the ceiling, examining the room as the others take the four cubes of fate; he has no coin with which to pay for them anyhow. Turning his gaze to the door in the northern wall, he patiently waits for his comrades to finish their preparations.

Rocky & Bullwinkle

A slight swishing sound is heard and the stoic Rocky turns to face the even taller man. The raven on his shoulder speaks "Ah... I suppose I'll need to stop calling Rocky here 'the big guy' then. Hmm. And I thought Rocky had problems with doors. You must have to do a lot of stooping in towns."

Another slight swishing sound is heard, and Rocky steps back a bit to be able to address all the apparent people in the group at once. Then the Raven says "I suppose introductions are in order, as we seem to be going through this together. Rocky here is my big guy; he lets me do all the talking for him. You can call me Bullwinkle. How should we address the rest of you? As for what we have to offer to the group, well, Rocky and me can do a lot when we put our minds to it - blast things, heal, dispose of traps, scout out what's upcoming, whatever, although we're better at some things than others. What can the lot of you do?"

A Large man in flowing blue robes, with arcane symbols stitched all over them. His shoes are white, with tufts of fur along the edges. His gloves are some of the most delicate deer hide available.

DM:

Not as much as you might think. Arcane Mastery Feat (take 10 on caster level checks - including Dispel checks) + Rod of Chain Spell (take a Targetted spell, and apply it to caster level targets, with some limitations and drawbacks) + Greater Dispel Magic + Higher Caster Level than the Party = No more buffs. Follow it up with a Divine Metamagic(Quicken Spell) repeat on visible items, and you're set. AND it's sensible for a high-level caster to do ... simply because spell buffs are so common at these levels, and anyone spending effort to make themselves look harmless while making another target look more tempting is probably a high-priority target. And that would reduce Bullwinkle's saves by 8 (5 Resistance, 3 from the reduced Divine Grace when the Cloak of Charisma +6 goes down), AC by ... 31 (4 Shield, 4 Mage Armor, 18 when the Monk's Belt goes away, another 3 when the Cloak of Charisma +6 goes away, another 2 when the Gloves of Dexterity +4 go away)? ... although the incorporeality would stay. AC from 67 to 36, saves from +31/+33/+35 to +23/+25/+27. Oh yes, and this particular pair has no particular guard against Dispells... although such a move would probably be followed up by a Disintegrate from one, and a Charge from the other, as those two effects aren't noticably hampered by the dispel.

The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature’s Intelligence score, Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless), Uses its Charisma modifier for Concentration checks, Not at risk of death from massive damage, but when reduced to 0 hit points or less, it is immediately destroyed, Not affected by raise dead and reincarnate spells or abilities. Resurrection and true resurrection can affect undead creatures. These spells turn undead creatures back into the living creatures they were before becoming undead, Undead do not breathe, eat, or sleep.
Aberration Features: (negligible)
Incorporeal Traits: An incorporeal creature has no physical body. It can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons or creatures that strike as magic weapons, and spells, spell-like abilities, or supernatural abilities. It is immune to all nonmagical attack forms. Even when hit by spells or magic weapons, it has a 50% chance to ignore any damage from a corporeal source (except for positive energy, negative energy, force effects such as magic missile, or attacks made with ghost touch weapons). Although it is not a magical attack, holy water can affect incorporeal undead, but a hit with holy water has a 50% chance of not affecting an incorporeal creature. An incorporeal creature has no natural armor bonus but has a deflection bonus equal to its Charisma bonus (always at least +1, even if the creature’s Charisma score does not normally provide a bonus). An incorporeal creature can enter or pass through solid objects, but must remain adjacent to the object’s exterior, and so cannot pass entirely through an object whose space is larger than its own. It can sense the presence of creatures or objects within a square adjacent to its current location, but enemies have total concealment (50% miss chance) from an incorporeal creature that is inside an object. In order to see farther from the object it is in and attack normally, the incorporeal creature must emerge. An incorporeal creature inside an object has total cover, but when it attacks a creature outside the object it only has cover, so a creature outside with a readied action could strike at it as it attacks. An incorporeal creature cannot pass through a force effect. An incorporeal creature’s attacks pass through (ignore) natural armor, armor, and shields, although deflection bonuses and force effects (such as mage armor) work normally against it. Incorporeal creatures pass through and operate in water as easily as they do in air. Incorporeal creatures cannot fall or take falling damage. Incorporeal creatures cannot make trip or grapple attacks, nor can they be tripped or grappled. In fact, they cannot take any physical action that would move or manipulate an opponent or its equipment, nor are they subject to such actions. Incorporeal creatures have no weight and do not set off traps that are triggered by weight. An incorporeal creature moves silently and cannot be heard with Listen checks if it doesn’t wish to be. It has no Strength score, so its Dexterity modifier applies to both its melee attacks and its ranged attacks. Nonvisual senses, such as scent and blindsight, are either ineffective or only partly effective with regard to incorporeal creatures. Incorporeal creatures have an innate sense of direction and can move at full speed even when they cannot see.

Kenneth

At only seven and a half feet tall, the man in full plate with the oversized adamantine gauntlets appears to be the runt of the group. The symbol of Kord is emblazoned on the front plate of his armor. "Rocky, eh?" He says, nodding to you. "I'm Kenneth Lagarth, priest of Kord. You can call me Kenneth, or Ken, if you prefer." He smiles and shrugs, looking round the room.

"What can I do? Fella, I'm a priest of Kord. What do you expect me to do?" He laughs, a deep and pleasant basso, then holds up his oversized gauntlets. "I smash evil with these and then heal up any hurts. Here, have a blessing."

He raises his gauntlets and mumbles a few words under his breath.

Garathor

The Giant (no wait, that would be identity theft)

Garathor looks down at his companions, crouching down so as to be on a more equal level with them. "It is good to see that we have a priest accompanying us," he says, bowing his head to Kenneth. "My name is Garathor. I am afraid that my skills are limited in comparison to those you have presented, but I like to believe that I can make a difference." From his belt he retrieves a harpoon with a rope attached to the end of it. In his hands, it looks quite small, though it glows faintly and crackles with electricity. "This is my weapon of choice, most times. I find it quite useful in dispatching enemies...in any case, I look forward to carrying out this task with you." With that said, he humbly bows his head again to the three of them.

[Jack_Simth]

Rocky & Bullwinkle

The portable hole is stowed as the raven on the nine-foot-tall man's shoulder speaks "So I suppose that leaves us taking down the traps, then? That works for us."

After the spells, the Raven asks a simple question "Kenneth Lagarth, it's generally considered good manners to let your allies of the moment know what spells you're casting on them prior to doing so, unless you're in the heat of battle and doing so might tip your hand to your opponents... might I inquire as to what you just attempted?"

Under True Seeing, the raven becomes a slightly transparent creature which has a conical body, shaped something like a wind sock. It's ovid head disk contains an immense, toothed maw, and is surrounded by four clawed arms. The man in robes changes to a Large stone man, wearing stone armor, with the symbol of Heironeous carved into his chest.

Actions:
Take the tokens, put the portable hole away. Talk a bit.

Spellcraft to ID:
True Seeing: (1d20+9)[17] (vs. DC 20, 21, or 22 depending on class causing it - 20 for Cleric)
Mass Conviction: (1d20+9)[17] (vs. DC 18)
Healing Lorecall: (1d20+9)[14] (Vs. DC 16 or 17, again depending on class causing it - 17 for Cleric)

Results:
Immune to Mass Conviction, due to the immunity to mind-affecting effects and it producing a Morale bonus. Oh well. Saving throws are high enough, I guess.

"I was rejected by my race for not conforming to the standards of behavior. I worship Heironeous, who they detested. I actively opposed the torturous practices of my people.

Hearing everyone else introduce themselves, Raginmund decides to do the same. "I am quite limited as well. Mainly, I hit things," he says, pointing to a pair of dark, clawed gauntlets, "And take blows."

"On a semi-related note, can anyone understand Drow Sign? Or possess the ability to speak with animals? My abilities limit me in more ways than one."

Finally, he turns back to the orb. "How slight a fee are we talking here?"

This slightly transparent creature has a conical body, shaped something like a wind sock. It's ovid head disk contains an immense, toothed maw, and is surrounded by four clawed arms.

History:

"I was rejected by my race for not conforming to the standards of behavior. I worship Heironeous, who they detested. I actively opposed the torturous practices of my people. And so I was ejected from my society in the most violent way possible by a people who enjoy torture ... and that was my salvation, as it wasn't long after that when disaster struck my people. I'd really rather not talk about it. Now I wander this plane, righting what wrongs I can."

Hatchling Phaerimm Racial Traits & Features: Aberration Type, Spells as a Sorcerer of Character level as spell-likes, Detect Magic, Flight, Feather Fall, Immunity to Polymorph and Petrification, SR 11, +2 Natural Armor, -6 Str, +6 Dex, +2 Wis, +2 Cha; Size: Tiny
Ghost Traits & Features: Undead Type, Con -, +4 Cha, Incorporeal, Rejuvination, Manifestation, Telekinesis, Malevolence; Natural Armor applies on Ethereal Plane (where Ghost is not Incorporeal)
Evolved Undead-6 traits & features: +6 Natural Armor, Deflection increases by 6, Six Spell-Like abilities (CL = HD), Fast Healing 3, +12 Str, +12 Cha
Undead Racial Traits: No Con, Darkvision-60, Immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, phantasms, patterns, and morale effects), Immunity to poison, sleep effects, paralysis, stunning, disease, and death effects, Not subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, ability drain, or energy drain. Immune to damage to its physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution), as well as to fatigue and exhaustion effects, Cannot heal damage on its own if it has no Intelligence score (me has Int), although it can be healed. Negative energy (such as an inflict spell) can heal undead creatures. The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature’s Intelligence score, Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless), Uses its Charisma modifier for Concentration checks, Not at risk of death from massive damage, but when reduced to 0 hit points or less, it is immediately destroyed, Not affected by raise dead and reincarnate spells or abilities. Resurrection and true resurrection can affect undead creatures. These spells turn undead creatures back into the living creatures they were before becoming undead, Undead do not breathe, eat, or sleep.
Aberration Features: (negligible)
Incorporeal Traits: An incorporeal creature has no physical body. It can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons or creatures that strike as magic weapons, and spells, spell-like abilities, or supernatural abilities. It is immune to all nonmagical attack forms. Even when hit by spells or magic weapons, it has a 50% chance to ignore any damage from a corporeal source (except for positive energy, negative energy, force effects such as magic missile, or attacks made with ghost touch weapons). Although it is not a magical attack, holy water can affect incorporeal undead, but a hit with holy water has a 50% chance of not affecting an incorporeal creature. An incorporeal creature has no natural armor bonus but has a deflection bonus equal to its Charisma bonus (always at least +1, even if the creature’s Charisma score does not normally provide a bonus). An incorporeal creature can enter or pass through solid objects, but must remain adjacent to the object’s exterior, and so cannot pass entirely through an object whose space is larger than its own. It can sense the presence of creatures or objects within a square adjacent to its current location, but enemies have total concealment (50% miss chance) from an incorporeal creature that is inside an object. In order to see farther from the object it is in and attack normally, the incorporeal creature must emerge. An incorporeal creature inside an object has total cover, but when it attacks a creature outside the object it only has cover, so a creature outside with a readied action could strike at it as it attacks. An incorporeal creature cannot pass through a force effect. An incorporeal creature’s attacks pass through (ignore) natural armor, armor, and shields, although deflection bonuses and force effects (such as mage armor) work normally against it. Incorporeal creatures pass through and operate in water as easily as they do in air. Incorporeal creatures cannot fall or take falling damage. Incorporeal creatures cannot make trip or grapple attacks, nor can they be tripped or grappled. In fact, they cannot take any physical action that would move or manipulate an opponent or its equipment, nor are they subject to such actions. Incorporeal creatures have no weight and do not set off traps that are triggered by weight. An incorporeal creature moves silently and cannot be heard with Listen checks if it doesn’t wish to be. It has no Strength score, so its Dexterity modifier applies to both its melee attacks and its ranged attacks. Nonvisual senses, such as scent and blindsight, are either ineffective or only partly effective with regard to incorporeal creatures. Incorporeal creatures have an innate sense of direction and can move at full speed even when they cannot see.

Raginmund

Upon seeing the raven's gestures, Raginmund breaks into a small grin. He raises his hands to chest height and begins to make signs himself.

Drow Sign:

Spoiler

Show

That is good news indeed. Could you be my translator when I am in my other form?

When his hands still, he hunches forward a bit. His form ripples, and in the man's place stands a relatively thin, and tall, dire bear. He is now ten feet tall, and the plate armor fits perfectly. A pair of massive horns sprout from his head, and his claws and forearms appear to be disproportionately large. Afterwards, he resumes his former position and leans against the wall, letting out a relieved sigh.

Rocky & Bullwinkle

The raven settles back down, and replies. "Sure, I can translate, readily enough. Speaking of... do we have any language besides Trade in common? It's often useful to be able to ask things on the battlefield without tipping our hands as to what we're planning. I'm personally familiar with the four elemental languages... necessary for anti-trapping the way Rocky and I handle it ... plus Undercommon and a very old language that I seriously doubt anyone else here knows. Oh yes, and Drow Sign and Trade, but that should be obvious by now."

The priest blinks a few times at seeing Rocky and Bullwinkles true forms. "Ah, my apologies. The first blessing improves your chances of resisting spells and other nasty effects. Do you not feel more inspired?" He grins. "The other two were for myself, allowing me to see true past any magical disguises and to enhance my healing." He shrugs.

"Didn't mean to upset you. It's so that creatures that like to appear as harmless innocents don't surprise me, like Ogre Magi and other such tricksters." He gazes at you, then glances to the symbol on the stone chest. "As long as you wear that truly, I've no problem."

He turns and watches the complicated hand gestures. "I don't know what those mean...and I can only speak Trade and Dwarven. But I know a blessing that will let me understand all spoken tongues, though I may not reply in kind. Won't help with your sign, but if you share another language I may understand that." He raises his gauntlets again and mumbles a few words under his breath.

Rocky & Bullwinkle

The raven considers a moment. "Eh, no biggie. Rocky and I do not have normal appearances, and usually go around with our true appearance cloaked. There's two basic reasons - first, it cuts down on all the screaming in town, and second, it helps keep opponents from using the effects that will cause serious problems for Rocky and myself. As we seem to be traveling together, it really was a bit of an eventuality that that you'd discover it sooner or later, I just wasn't expecting it this soon. But regardless, we probably ought to start moving, as most spells start winding down as soon as they're started. I'm playing trapmonkey today, so I'll lead ...."

With that, Rocky and Bullwinkle begin the rather dull job of searching for traps in the room, and on the door, using their Trap Protocol... scanning for magic, then Summoning Large elementals to traverse every square of the area, and watching for results... having the elementals do all the actual work as Bullwinkle gives them orders in their native languages. After making sure the room is clear, Rocky and Bullwinkle open the door... while standing a very far distance away from it.

Trap Protocol:

Spoiler

Show

Step 1: Use Detect Magic (it's an At-Will ability) to check all directions - Up, Down, North, South, East, West; for the full three rounds to learn strength and location of all magic auras.
Step 2: Use the Summon Elemental Reserve Feat to Summon an Elemental. Use the actual languages of the elementals to go everywhere in that sixty-foot range (it vanishes at the end of the elemental's turn if it's not within 30 feet of Rocky & Bullwinkle, but it can travel outside that range for a time, it's just a standard action to summon one, and if another is summoned, the existing one is unsummoned). Make sure one elemental of each of the four types (Air, Earth, Fire, Water) steps on each square in that very large area at least once.
Step 3: Send an elemental of each type to longest possible range along intended path of travel (on a straight away, that's 430 feet for an Air elemental - Summon at 30 foot range, Run action for 400 feet due to 100 foot speed; 230 feet around corners on a double-move rather than Run - 110 or 70 feet for an Earth or Water elemental, 230 or 130 feet for a Fire elemental)
Step 4: Observe results
Step 5: If nothing happens, move appropriately.
Step 6: If something needs manipulation, use Telekinesis to do it.
Step 7: If a trap needs to be destroyed, kill it with one of: Fiery Burst Reserve Feat, Invisible Needle Reserve Feat, repeated Charging Bash attempts from Elementals, or other means as appropriate to the situation (please post what happens to the elementals, where the blast seems to come from, and I'll post a response to the trap).

You do realize that Comprehend Languages has a rather pesky clause for combat communication:

You can understand the spoken words of creatures or read otherwise incomprehensible written messages. In either case, you must touch the creature or the writing.

(emphasis added) which makes it rather useless for combat understanding, don't you?

Immune to damage to its physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution), as well as to fatigue and exhaustion effects, Cannot heal damage on its own if it has no Intelligence score (me has Int), although it can be healed. Negative energy (such as an inflict spell) can heal undead creatures. The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature’s Intelligence score, Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless), Uses its Charisma modifier for Concentration checks, Not at risk of death from massive damage, but when reduced to 0 hit points or less, it is immediately destroyed, Not affected by raise dead and reincarnate spells or abilities. Resurrection and true resurrection can affect undead creatures. These spells turn undead creatures back into the living creatures they were before becoming undead, Undead do not breathe, eat, or sleep.
Aberration Features: (negligible)
Incorporeal Traits: An incorporeal creature has no physical body. It can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons or creatures that strike as magic weapons, and spells, spell-like abilities, or supernatural abilities. It is immune to all nonmagical attack forms. Even when hit by spells or magic weapons, it has a 50% chance to ignore any damage from a corporeal source (except for positive energy, negative energy, force effects such as magic missile, or attacks made with ghost touch weapons). Although it is not a magical attack, holy water can affect incorporeal undead, but a hit with holy water has a 50% chance of not affecting an incorporeal creature. An incorporeal creature has no natural armor bonus but has a deflection bonus equal to its Charisma bonus (always at least +1, even if the creature’s Charisma score does not normally provide a bonus). An incorporeal creature can enter or pass through solid objects, but must remain adjacent to the object’s exterior, and so cannot pass entirely through an object whose space is larger than its own. It can sense the presence of creatures or objects within a square adjacent to its current location, but enemies have total concealment (50% miss chance) from an incorporeal creature that is inside an object. In order to see farther from the object it is in and attack normally, the incorporeal creature must emerge. An incorporeal creature inside an object has total cover, but when it attacks a creature outside the object it only has cover, so a creature outside with a readied action could strike at it as it attacks. An incorporeal creature cannot pass through a force effect. An incorporeal creature’s attacks pass through (ignore) natural armor, armor, and shields, although deflection bonuses and force effects (such as mage armor) work normally against it. Incorporeal creatures pass through and operate in water as easily as they do in air. Incorporeal creatures cannot fall or take falling damage. Incorporeal creatures cannot make trip or grapple attacks, nor can they be tripped or grappled. In fact, they cannot take any physical action that would move or manipulate an opponent or its equipment, nor are they subject to such actions. Incorporeal creatures have no weight and do not set off traps that are triggered by weight. An incorporeal creature moves silently and cannot be heard with Listen checks if it doesn’t wish to be. It has no Strength score, so its Dexterity modifier applies to both its melee attacks and its ranged attacks. Nonvisual senses, such as scent and blindsight, are either ineffective or only partly effective with regard to incorporeal creatures. Incorporeal creatures have an innate sense of direction and can move at full speed even when they cannot see.

[Cadian 9th]

Rocky and Bullwinkle's routine fails in that nothing they can summon can leave the room save by opening the door. By checking everywhere with the elemental, you find that the room is exaclty as it seems except it is immposible to leave the room (as if it were a cube where the underground extends 20ft down and the area above the ceiling is 20ft high. Detecting magic detects nothing out of the ordinary, but the Orb registers as a divinely powerful (overwhelming HD and alignment), but apart from that nothing appears out of the ordinary.

Everyone, I've recorded your purchases and am semiaware of your effects.

EDIT: The door can be opened from a distance, but you cannot do anything to that room unless you are actually in that room. If you open it:

Spoiler

You spot a milky darkness on the other side of the door. The elemental has not died or been harmed.

The door is still there, do you attack it?

Rocky & Bullwinkle

The door does indeed open under Telekensis... and Rocky and Bullwinkle approach the milky darkness, and expirimentally orders a few elementals to pop in through it a distance, and come back... just to see what happens.

Protocols (long strings of actions that are liable to be repeated a LOT, for purposes of handling things normally done with skill checks)

Spoiler

Show

Trap Protocol:

Spoiler

Show

Step 1: Use Detect Magic (it's an At-Will ability) to check all directions - Up, Down, North, South, East, West; for the full three rounds to learn strength and location of all magic auras.
Step 2: Use the Summon Elemental Reserve Feat to Summon an Elemental. Use the actual languages of the elementals to go everywhere in that sixty-foot range (it vanishes at the end of the elemental's turn if it's not within 30 feet of Rocky & Bullwinkle, but it can travel outside that range for a time, and it's just a standard action to summon one). Make sure one elemental of each of the four types (Air, Earth, Fire, Water) steps on each square in that very large area at least once.
Step 3: Send an elemental of each type to longest possible range along intended path of travel (on a straight away, that's 430 feet for an Air elemental - Summon at 30 foot range, Run action for 400 feet due to 100 foot speed; 230 feet around corners on a double-move rather than Run - 110 or 70 feet for an Earth or Water elemental, 230 or 130 feet for a Fire elemental)
Step 4: Observe results
Step 5: If nothing happens, move appropriately.
Step 6: If something needs manipulation, use Telekinesis to do it.
Step 7: If a trap needs to be destroyed, kill it with one of: Fiery Burst Reserve Feat, Invisible Needle Reserve Feat, repeated Charging Bash attempts from Elementals, or other means as appropriate to the situation (please post what happens to the elementals, where the blast seems to come from, and I'll post a response to the trap).

Undead Racial Traits: No Con, Darkvision-60, Immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, phantasms, patterns, and morale effects), Immunity to poison, sleep effects, paralysis, stunning, disease, and death effects, Not subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, ability drain, or energy drain. Immune to damage to its physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution), as well as to fatigue and exhaustion effects, Cannot heal damage on its own if it has no Intelligence score (me has Int), although it can be healed. Negative energy (such as an inflict spell) can heal undead creatures. The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature’s Intelligence score, Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless), Uses its Charisma modifier for Concentration checks, Not at risk of death from massive damage, but when reduced to 0 hit points or less, it is immediately destroyed, Not affected by raise dead and reincarnate spells or abilities. Resurrection and true resurrection can affect undead creatures. These spells turn undead creatures back into the living creatures they were before becoming undead, Undead do not breathe, eat, or sleep.
Aberration Features: (negligible)
Incorporeal Traits: An incorporeal creature has no physical body. It can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons or creatures that strike as magic weapons, and spells, spell-like abilities, or supernatural abilities. It is immune to all nonmagical attack forms. Even when hit by spells or magic weapons, it has a 50% chance to ignore any damage from a corporeal source (except for positive energy, negative energy, force effects such as magic missile, or attacks made with ghost touch weapons). Although it is not a magical attack, holy water can affect incorporeal undead, but a hit with holy water has a 50% chance of not affecting an incorporeal creature. An incorporeal creature has no natural armor bonus but has a deflection bonus equal to its Charisma bonus (always at least +1, even if the creature’s Charisma score does not normally provide a bonus). An incorporeal creature can enter or pass through solid objects, but must remain adjacent to the object’s exterior, and so cannot pass entirely through an object whose space is larger than its own. It can sense the presence of creatures or objects within a square adjacent to its current location, but enemies have total concealment (50% miss chance) from an incorporeal creature that is inside an object. In order to see farther from the object it is in and attack normally, the incorporeal creature must emerge. An incorporeal creature inside an object has total cover, but when it attacks a creature outside the object it only has cover, so a creature outside with a readied action could strike at it as it attacks. An incorporeal creature cannot pass through a force effect. An incorporeal creature’s attacks pass through (ignore) natural armor, armor, and shields, although deflection bonuses and force effects (such as mage armor) work normally against it. Incorporeal creatures pass through and operate in water as easily as they do in air. Incorporeal creatures cannot fall or take falling damage. Incorporeal creatures cannot make trip or grapple attacks, nor can they be tripped or grappled. In fact, they cannot take any physical action that would move or manipulate an opponent or its equipment, nor are they subject to such actions. Incorporeal creatures have no weight and do not set off traps that are triggered by weight. An incorporeal creature moves silently and cannot be heard with Listen checks if it doesn’t wish to be. It has no Strength score, so its Dexterity modifier applies to both its melee attacks and its ranged attacks. Nonvisual senses, such as scent and blindsight, are either ineffective or only partly effective with regard to incorporeal creatures. Incorporeal creatures have an innate sense of direction and can move at full speed even when they cannot see.

[Cadian 9th]

The elementals cannot go through until you do too. Are you sure you want to go through with an elemental, if you do, the party must do so as well.

Just to alleviate some concerns, if there is something hostile in the room, ini is rolled immediately. And there are no traps. The elemental can stand between rooms and has not yet been destroyed.

Spoiler

Show

Sorry if this seems OTT. Basically, you can't get into/see into a room without being there. However, it works both ways, so monsters and their creatures cannot follow you through the doors to other rooms.

I promise there won't be any suprises o the other side of the door. It is called : "Room 1 - Business as usual..." after all.

[Jack_Simth]

Rocky & Bullwinkle

Bullwinkle responds to the funny hand-gestures of Raginmund: "If that had found any traps, you'd know about it... other than certain magic traps, it doesn't so much find them as it triggers them on a Summoned Elemental ... which wakes up, safe and sound, at home afterwards. There's a couple of ways to bypass that particular method, but it doesn't come up often."

EDIT:
Upon seeing the elemental stymied, the Raven remarks "Well. This place seems singularly designed to avoid advanced information gathering. Which means there's little help for it but to continue. Shall we?"

Protocols (long strings of actions that are liable to be repeated a LOT, for purposes of handling things normally done with skill checks)

Spoiler

Show

Trap Protocol:

Spoiler

Show

Step 1: Use Detect Magic (it's an At-Will ability) to check all directions - Up, Down, North, South, East, West; for the full three rounds to learn strength and location of all magic auras.
Step 2: Use the Summon Elemental Reserve Feat to Summon an Elemental. Use the actual languages of the elementals to go everywhere in that sixty-foot range (it vanishes at the end of the elemental's turn if it's not within 30 feet of Rocky & Bullwinkle, but it can travel outside that range for a time, and it's just a standard action to summon one). Make sure one elemental of each of the four types (Air, Earth, Fire, Water) steps on each square in that very large area at least once.
Step 3: Send an elemental of each type to longest possible range along intended path of travel (on a straight away, that's 430 feet for an Air elemental - Summon at 30 foot range, Run action for 400 feet due to 100 foot speed; 230 feet around corners on a double-move rather than Run - 110 or 70 feet for an Earth or Water elemental, 230 or 130 feet for a Fire elemental)
Step 4: Observe results
Step 5: If nothing happens, move appropriately.
Step 6: If something needs manipulation, use Telekinesis to do it.
Step 7: If a trap needs to be destroyed, kill it with one of: Fiery Burst Reserve Feat, Invisible Needle Reserve Feat, repeated Charging Bash attempts from Elementals, or other means as appropriate to the situation (please post what happens to the elementals, where the blast seems to come from, and I'll post a response to the trap).

Classes of trap that bypass trap-finding protocol:

Spoiler

Show

Class 1: Alarm, Summon, and Pathblocking traps: The Trap-Finding protocol locates them, but it doesn't matter - the alarm still goes off, the Summoned critter still attacks, the path is still blocked.
Class 2: Nonmagical intelligent traps (aka, the Kobold watching through a peephole, choosing whether or not to pull on the rope that collapses the ceiling): An intelligent entity is capable of recognizing that the swarm of elementals is chaff, intended for no purpose other than to trigger traps ... and so not pull the rope until something other than an elemental comes by. But then, not all intelligent critters will figure that out, instead triggering the effect after the first elemental ... or triggering it at the first elemental, but letting the others go by until something else happens along, if the trap is auto-reset.
Class 3: Discriminatory magical traps that avoid detection. There's a 1st level spell - Magic Aura - that completely stymies Detect Magic. Use that on a magical trap that, say, goes off when a humanoid goes by, and the trapfinding protocol misses it.

Treasure Search Protocol:

Spoiler

Show

Step 1: Activate Ring of X-Ray Vision.
Step 2: Move to within a ten feet of every wall (including floor and ceiling) and object of interest (such as chests).
Step 3: Make note of anything that blocks X-Ray Vvision, or anything interesting noted through walls/floors/chests.

Rocky & Bullwinkle

Bullwinkle responds to the funny hand-gestures of Raginmund: "We could try splitting up as you suggest, Raginmund, but I doubt it'll work - the elemental couldn't proceed further, so it's expected that the 'door' will require us all to go through essentially at once. Oh, and on an unrelated note, did anyone bring diamonds? But as you wish, I'm willing to let someone else be the one to decide on the exact timing of when we step through."

Protocols (long strings of actions that are liable to be repeated a LOT, for purposes of handling things normally done with skill checks)

Spoiler

Show

Trap Protocol:

Spoiler

Show

Step 1: Use Detect Magic (it's an At-Will ability) to check all directions - Up, Down, North, South, East, West; for the full three rounds to learn strength and location of all magic auras.
Step 2: Use the Summon Elemental Reserve Feat to Summon an Elemental. Use the actual languages of the elementals to go everywhere in that sixty-foot range (it vanishes at the end of the elemental's turn if it's not within 30 feet of Rocky & Bullwinkle, but it can travel outside that range for a time, and it's just a standard action to summon one). Make sure one elemental of each of the four types (Air, Earth, Fire, Water) steps on each square in that very large area at least once.
Step 3: Send an elemental of each type to longest possible range along intended path of travel (on a straight away, that's 430 feet for an Air elemental - Summon at 30 foot range, Run action for 400 feet due to 100 foot speed; 230 feet around corners on a double-move rather than Run - 110 or 70 feet for an Earth or Water elemental, 230 or 130 feet for a Fire elemental)
Step 4: Observe results
Step 5: If nothing happens, move appropriately.
Step 6: If something needs manipulation, use Telekinesis to do it.
Step 7: If a trap needs to be destroyed, kill it with one of: Fiery Burst Reserve Feat, Invisible Needle Reserve Feat, repeated Charging Bash attempts from Elementals, or other means as appropriate to the situation (please post what happens to the elementals, where the blast seems to come from, and I'll post a response to the trap).

Time Analysis:

Spoiler

Show

In an open area, this checks everything within 60 feet (approximately 450 5-foot squares) in about 96 rounds (math of that is long and convoluted; not included here; all but the first 18 rounds of which is directly proportional to the number of squares that need to be checked). About four times as fast as a dedicated Rogue searching the entire area for traps.

Along a hallway, this checks 60 feet (limit of Detect Magic - 12 five-foot squares long) in a ten-foot wide swath (width of the Large Elementals - two five-foot squares wide) in 7 rounds (three for Detect Magic forward, one for a double move or Run from each elemental); almost twice as fast as a dedicated Rogue searching for traps.

Classes of trap that bypass trap-finding protocol:

Spoiler

Show

Class 1: Alarm, Summon, and Pathblocking traps: The Trap-Finding protocol locates them, but it doesn't matter - the alarm still goes off, the Summoned critter still attacks, the path is still blocked.
Class 2: Nonmagical intelligent traps (aka, the Kobold watching through a peephole, choosing whether or not to pull on the rope that collapses the ceiling): An intelligent entity is capable of recognizing that the swarm of elementals is chaff, intended for no purpose other than to trigger traps ... and so not pull the rope until something other than an elemental comes by. But then, not all intelligent critters will figure that out, instead triggering the effect after the first elemental ... or triggering it at the first elemental, but letting the others go by until something else happens along, if the trap is auto-reset.
Class 3: Discriminatory magical traps that avoid detection. There's a 1st level spell - Magic Aura - that completely stymies Detect Magic. Use that on a magical trap that, say, goes off when a humanoid goes by, and the trapfinding protocol misses it.

Evolved Undead-6 traits & features: +6 Natural Armor, Deflection increases by 6, Six Spell-Like abilities (CL = HD), Fast Healing 3, +12 Str, +12 Cha
Undead Racial Traits: No Con, Darkvision-60, Immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, phantasms, patterns, and morale effects), Immunity to poison, sleep effects, paralysis, stunning, disease, and death effects, Not subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, ability drain, or energy drain. Immune to damage to its physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution), as well as to fatigue and exhaustion effects, Cannot heal damage on its own if it has no Intelligence score (me has Int), although it can be healed. Negative energy (such as an inflict spell) can heal undead creatures. The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature’s Intelligence score, Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless), Uses its Charisma modifier for Concentration checks, Not at risk of death from massive damage, but when reduced to 0 hit points or less, it is immediately destroyed, Not affected by raise dead and reincarnate spells or abilities. Resurrection and true resurrection can affect undead creatures. These spells turn undead creatures back into the living creatures they were before becoming undead, Undead do not breathe, eat, or sleep.
Aberration Features: (negligible)
Incorporeal Traits: An incorporeal creature has no physical body. It can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons or creatures that strike as magic weapons, and spells, spell-like abilities, or supernatural abilities. It is immune to all nonmagical attack forms. Even when hit by spells or magic weapons, it has a 50% chance to ignore any damage from a corporeal source (except for positive energy, negative energy, force effects such as magic missile, or attacks made with ghost touch weapons). Although it is not a magical attack, holy water can affect incorporeal undead, but a hit with holy water has a 50% chance of not affecting an incorporeal creature. An incorporeal creature has no natural armor bonus but has a deflection bonus equal to its Charisma bonus (always at least +1, even if the creature’s Charisma score does not normally provide a bonus). An incorporeal creature can enter or pass through solid objects, but must remain adjacent to the object’s exterior, and so cannot pass entirely through an object whose space is larger than its own. It can sense the presence of creatures or objects within a square adjacent to its current location, but enemies have total concealment (50% miss chance) from an incorporeal creature that is inside an object. In order to see farther from the object it is in and attack normally, the incorporeal creature must emerge. An incorporeal creature inside an object has total cover, but when it attacks a creature outside the object it only has cover, so a creature outside with a readied action could strike at it as it attacks. An incorporeal creature cannot pass through a force effect. An incorporeal creature’s attacks pass through (ignore) natural armor, armor, and shields, although deflection bonuses and force effects (such as mage armor) work normally against it. Incorporeal creatures pass through and operate in water as easily as they do in air. Incorporeal creatures cannot fall or take falling damage. Incorporeal creatures cannot make trip or grapple attacks, nor can they be tripped or grappled. In fact, they cannot take any physical action that would move or manipulate an opponent or its equipment, nor are they subject to such actions. Incorporeal creatures have no weight and do not set off traps that are triggered by weight. An incorporeal creature moves silently and cannot be heard with Listen checks if it doesn’t wish to be. It has no Strength score, so its Dexterity modifier applies to both its melee attacks and its ranged attacks. Nonvisual senses, such as scent and blindsight, are either ineffective or only partly effective with regard to incorporeal creatures. Incorporeal creatures have an innate sense of direction and can move at full speed even when they cannot see.

History:

Show

"I was rejected by my race for not conforming to the standards of behavior. I worship Heironeous, who they detested. I actively opposed the torturous practices of my people. And so I was ejected from my society in the most violent way possible by a people who enjoy torture ... and that was my salvation, as it wasn't long after that when disaster struck my people. I'd really rather not talk about it. Now I wander this plane, righting what wrongs I can."

Racial Features and Traits:

Show

Hatchling Phaerimm Racial Traits & Features: Aberration Type, Spells as a Sorcerer of Character level as spell-likes, Detect Magic, Flight, Feather Fall, Immunity to Polymorph and Petrification, SR 11, +2 Natural Armor, -6 Str, +6 Dex, +2 Wis, +2 Cha; Size: Tiny
Ghost Traits & Features: Undead Type, Con -, +4 Cha, Incorporeal, Rejuvination, Manifestation, Telekinesis, Malevolence; Natural Armor applies on Ethereal Plane (where Ghost is not Incorporeal)
Evolved Undead-6 traits & features: +6 Natural Armor, Deflection increases by 6, Six Spell-Like abilities (CL = HD), Fast Healing 3, +12 Str, +12 Cha
Undead Racial Traits: No Con, Darkvision-60, Immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, phantasms, patterns, and morale effects), Immunity to poison, sleep effects, paralysis, stunning, disease, and death effects, Not subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, ability drain, or energy drain. Immune to damage to its physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution), as well as to fatigue and exhaustion effects, Cannot heal damage on its own if it has no Intelligence score (me has Int), although it can be healed. Negative energy (such as an inflict spell) can heal undead creatures. The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature’s Intelligence score, Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless), Uses its Charisma modifier for Concentration checks, Not at risk of death from massive damage, but when reduced to 0 hit points or less, it is immediately destroyed, Not affected by raise dead and reincarnate spells or abilities. Resurrection and true resurrection can affect undead creatures. These spells turn undead creatures back into the living creatures they were before becoming undead, Undead do not breathe, eat, or sleep.
Aberration Features: (negligible)
Incorporeal Traits: An incorporeal creature has no physical body. It can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons or creatures that strike as magic weapons, and spells, spell-like abilities, or supernatural abilities. It is immune to all nonmagical attack forms. Even when hit by spells or magic weapons, it has a 50% chance to ignore any damage from a corporeal source (except for positive energy, negative energy, force effects such as magic missile, or attacks made with ghost touch weapons). Although it is not a magical attack, holy water can affect incorporeal undead, but a hit with holy water has a 50% chance of not affecting an incorporeal creature. An incorporeal creature has no natural armor bonus but has a deflection bonus equal to its Charisma bonus (always at least +1, even if the creature’s Charisma score does not normally provide a bonus). An incorporeal creature can enter or pass through solid objects, but must remain adjacent to the object’s exterior, and so cannot pass entirely through an object whose space is larger than its own. It can sense the presence of creatures or objects within a square adjacent to its current location, but enemies have total concealment (50% miss chance) from an incorporeal creature that is inside an object. In order to see farther from the object it is in and attack normally, the incorporeal creature must emerge. An incorporeal creature inside an object has total cover, but when it attacks a creature outside the object it only has cover, so a creature outside with a readied action could strike at it as it attacks. An incorporeal creature cannot pass through a force effect. An incorporeal creature’s attacks pass through (ignore) natural armor, armor, and shields, although deflection bonuses and force effects (such as mage armor) work normally against it. Incorporeal creatures pass through and operate in water as easily as they do in air. Incorporeal creatures cannot fall or take falling damage. Incorporeal creatures cannot make trip or grapple attacks, nor can they be tripped or grappled. In fact, they cannot take any physical action that would move or manipulate an opponent or its equipment, nor are they subject to such actions. Incorporeal creatures have no weight and do not set off traps that are triggered by weight. An incorporeal creature moves silently and cannot be heard with Listen checks if it doesn’t wish to be. It has no Strength score, so its Dexterity modifier applies to both its melee attacks and its ranged attacks. Nonvisual senses, such as scent and blindsight, are either ineffective or only partly effective with regard to incorporeal creatures. Incorporeal creatures have an innate sense of direction and can move at full speed even when they cannot see.

Protocols (long strings of actions that are liable to be repeated a LOT, for purposes of handling things normally done with skill checks)

Spoiler

Show

Trap Protocol:

Spoiler

Show

Step 1: Use Detect Magic (it's an At-Will ability) to check all directions - Up, Down, North, South, East, West; for the full three rounds to learn strength and location of all magic auras.
Step 2: Use the Summon Elemental Reserve Feat to Summon an Elemental. Use the actual languages of the elementals to go everywhere in that sixty-foot range (it vanishes at the end of the elemental's turn if it's not within 30 feet of Rocky & Bullwinkle, but it can travel outside that range for a time, and it's just a standard action to summon one). Make sure one elemental of each of the four types (Air, Earth, Fire, Water) steps on each square in that very large area at least once.
Step 3: Send an elemental of each type to longest possible range along intended path of travel (on a straight away, that's 430 feet for an Air elemental - Summon at 30 foot range, Run action for 400 feet due to 100 foot speed; 230 feet around corners on a double-move rather than Run - 110 or 70 feet for an Earth or Water elemental, 230 or 130 feet for a Fire elemental)
Step 4: Observe results
Step 5: If nothing happens, move appropriately.
Step 6: If something needs manipulation, use Telekinesis to do it.
Step 7: If a trap needs to be destroyed, kill it with one of: Fiery Burst Reserve Feat, Invisible Needle Reserve Feat, repeated Charging Bash attempts from Elementals, or other means as appropriate to the situation (please post what happens to the elementals, where the blast seems to come from, and I'll post a response to the trap).

Time Analysis:

Spoiler

Show

In an open area, this checks everything within 60 feet (approximately 450 5-foot squares) in about 96 rounds (math of that is long and convoluted; not included here; all but the first 18 rounds of which is directly proportional to the number of squares that need to be checked). About four times as fast as a dedicated Rogue searching the entire area for traps.

Along a hallway, this checks 60 feet (limit of Detect Magic - 12 five-foot squares long) in a ten-foot wide swath (width of the Large Elementals - two five-foot squares wide) in 7 rounds (three for Detect Magic forward, one for a double move or Run from each elemental); almost twice as fast as a dedicated Rogue searching for traps.

Classes of trap that bypass trap-finding protocol:

Spoiler

Show

Class 1: Alarm, Summon, and Pathblocking traps: The Trap-Finding protocol locates them, but it doesn't matter - the alarm still goes off, the Summoned critter still attacks, the path is still blocked.
Class 2: Nonmagical intelligent traps (aka, the Kobold watching through a peephole, choosing whether or not to pull on the rope that collapses the ceiling): An intelligent entity is capable of recognizing that the swarm of elementals is chaff, intended for no purpose other than to trigger traps ... and so not pull the rope until something other than an elemental comes by. But then, not all intelligent critters will figure that out, instead triggering the effect after the first elemental ... or triggering it at the first elemental, but letting the others go by until something else happens along, if the trap is auto-reset.
Class 3: Discriminatory magical traps that avoid detection. There's a 1st level spell - Magic Aura - that completely stymies Detect Magic. Use that on a magical trap that, say, goes off when a humanoid goes by, and the trapfinding protocol misses it.

Treasure Search Protocol:

Spoiler

Show

Step 1: Activate Ring of X-Ray Vision.
Step 2: Move to within a ten feet of every wall (including floor and ceiling) and object of interest (such as chests).
Step 3: Make note of anything that blocks X-Ray Vvision, or anything interesting noted through walls/floors/chests.
