You see Redmoon move to T19, barely visible (needed a ruler), and drink another potion.

Note, that once LOS is established, you maintain it, for as long as you have uninterrupted LoS to the target. No need to roll spot checks unless you lose sight of him.

By tracing from the SW corner of Elethomel's square, he has LoS to everything row 15 and south. I roll because if his move took him out of sight it could require a check, and I save time by making it now. It doesn't hurt to make him think I don't know where he is.

You hear the sounds of casting somewhere, but can't discern the location. No LoS though.

Where is RedMoon throwing from? If E has cover, that's a miss, and we can likely rap this up w/o additional ref input.

[Bronz]

Redmoon is throwing from J18. It seems E just barely has cover from that attack, so it's a miss and E's turn.

[Mavian]

Ref Mav:

E is in G14, R is in J18, and you each know where the other one is.

[Maurkov]

Elethiomel round 4

Elethiomel completes his spell (Sleep, Will DC 17). If RedMoon falls, Elethiomel will wait 10 rounds, draw and cast his enlarge person scroll, approach, draw the axe and administer a coup de grace. Otherwise, he will approach to 15' and cast Colorspray (again, Will DC 17). If RedMoon falls, Elethiomel will skip the enlarge person step and go straight for the axe and coup de grace. If RedMoon makes both saves, Elethiomel will lose, most likely.

Enlarged coup de grace - (9d8-3)[34] or
Normal coup de grace - (6d8-6)[4][8][1][3][4][3](17)

As RM is effected by prot from evil sleep has no effect but will roll the will save for when prot from evil expires
will - (1d20+1)[6]

Also, his eyes are closed, and is therefore unaffected by colorspray but I am not sure if E can see that or if he just does what is listed because he said it.

I will move forward with my turn when this is ruled on.

Just need a quick check and we can move forward.

Warning: Incoming Wallo'Text


Protection from x doesn't actually prevent sleep from affecting you. The second part of the description is the pertinent part in this debate.

Second, the barrier blocks any attempt to possess the warded creature (by a magic jar attack, for example) or to exercise mental control over the creature (including enchantment (charm) effects and enchantment (compulsion) effects that grant the caster ongoing control over the subject, such as dominate person). The protection does not prevent such effects from targeting the protected creature, but it suppresses the effect for the duration of the protection from evil effect. If the protection from evil effect ends before the effect granting mental control does, the would-be controller would then be able to mentally command the controlled creature. Likewise, the barrier keeps out a possessing life force but does not expel one if it is in place before the spell is cast. This second effect works regardless of alignment.

The thing is, the spell only prevents affects that provide Ongoing Control over the target, not spells that simply make you fall asleep. The sleep spell provides no mention of any form of control, hence why I do not believe it would be affected by Protection from X spells.

[Bronz]

@refs

Two points. First: sleep is an ongoing effect or control. It is not instantaneous and has a duration of 1/min per level. It is forced sleep for a period of time.
Second: It is specifically Enchantment(Compulsion), which is explicitly stated in the wall of text you so handily provided.

I can't see why it would NOT work.

[Maurkov]

Is the question whether Pro Evil provides immunity to all charm [compulsion] effects?

[Bronz]

Not necessarily all, but yes that's the question. Sleep is a durational Enchantment(compulsion) effect, and is explicitly (in my view) covered by prot from evil (which I drank obviously).
