Right, but it looks as like Khaz has control of it for now. Just saying we probably don't have to abandon ship right at this moment.

While I am fully confident in your guy's ability to handle our current situtation, I will feel safer if I am able to make myself a parachute.

Question for Samurai: The enemies bore crests of Wolves, not lions. Is your intent deception or was it a mistake?

I forgot to mention, the ritual takes 10 minutes to complete. And going by my arcana check, the portal will be open for three rounds.

Why thank you .

Are our encounter powers restored for this encounter or no? That will decide my first turn for me.

Since I was able to identify the dagger that means we were able to have a short rest.

Felhammer, I rolled my damage incorrectly for that action point attack. This is what is should be:

(1d8+18)[22]

Sorry for the mix-up.

Sorry . After I saw my attack missed, I decided to use an action point. Since I can't edit in a die roll, I just made a new post with the action point attack. And when I did, I rolled a d20 for the damage (wasn't thinking).

That'd be a swingy damage die to say the least.

I suppose this is something I should have asked before I acted rashly but better late than never, I suppose. Do we think this is the full embodied elemental in all his flaming glory? I assumed this was sort of a few minor sparks off of him and we were instead fighting to destroy the ship before he made something worse.

If this is the real deal though, it might just be more practical to kill the damn thing.

Ironically, you only rolled 3 higher with a d20 compared to a d8

You guys can edit the map.

To move your character, double click on him/her, highlight all the details (Name + HP), cut the details (Control X), Click on the square you want to move it and paste (control V).

If you want to add a comment, right click the square you want to add a comment to, click insert comment, delete the added by junk, write your comment, then click another square to save.

Be careful about copying cell formatting, though. I think simply cutting and pasting will copy the cell color and stuff like that.

Also, when I'm at work (where I do most of my postings), I can't edit the spreadsheet, so I'll usually ask someone else to edit the sheet for me if something relevant changes.

Another thing might be to have everyone (including the enemies) have a row where you can add relevent conditions that you give to somebody. For instance, I'd add the -6 to hit details to the fire elemental so that Felhammer could better keep track of what's going on with everyone. Also, it would help for those that throw bonuses around to allies so they know to use the bonuses. In paragon, bonuses, penalties and status effects are very common and it's easy to forget everything when you're ready to take your action.

Fel, it is only -12 vs. Khaz (well -14 because of Bren's defender aura). It is at -6 vs. Bren and -8 vs. the others.

Just a note: To figure out the pattern of the Teleportation Circle, you guys will have to complete a Skill Challenge. The primary skills for this challenge will be Perception and Arcana, both of which receive a +2 bonus.

Note, as long as you have LOS to the Circle, you can make checks however, every square between yourself and the Circle, imposes a -2 penalty to your check.

You can make your skill checks as a Minor action.

Hmm. Cav might need a different tactic if this guy can hit 35 even with a -8.
