I assume since I can cling to surfaces the same is true of the grip. Just stick to one edge of the dial and pull in a direction. If needed use 2 legs to act as fingers pressing the sides on the dial to spin. Not that hard. But will add a roll.

You know what. Since I keep hearing objections to my as DM decisions as being wrong I am table flipping this game. Sorry everyone but I feel like none is having enough fun with this game. Let's close it already.

Thanks for playing it everyone.

Thank you for running it. This was designed to be a brutal, tactical dungeon and I, for one, may have overreached playing a spellcaster from a class I had only played as a 1st level starting at this high a level.

Didn't mean to be the straw to break you back. I was just suggesting possible solution to a problem. The DMing was not a problem for me. I grew up on RPG with family and friends where discussion on DM rulings were common though ultimately up to the DM. Thanks for the game.

@Psybermagi i didn't mean to say your post upset me. It opened my ayes.

I have been the player complaining DM asks me to roll a dice when I just don't what's a cantrip describe i must be able to do. Or asks me to roll deception when nothing my PC says is a lie.

I am usually happy explaining why and what a failure would be. For example spider failure would mean a bit more time than a human hand would take to perform the action.

But in this game I have run out of energy explaining. I admit I am tired running this game here on GP.

I would like yo also stress that I have no problem with Psybermagi and am actually thankful for he was leading the story when everyone else struggled to.

I will happily continue playing with him in other games.

The iron wall coming down reminds me of a show I just watched. Last alien is out to kill a guy. He is no match for it and lures into a hallway to going to room. Alien fails his DEX roll and the door that the guy activated cuts the alien basically in two killing it. Our fairy is too fast for the iron door.

OK thanks everyone for playing. I'm not closing the game yet and anyone who want could still interact/talk with BBEG in the game thread. Otherwise feel free to drop.

Spirit Guardians and summon celestial both need concentration, doesn't they? I am at mobile and bad internet so didn't double check. Ignore me if I missed something.

TO help everyone - here is the status before Tatne Lude turn:

Criella: cursed by Lich (can't regain HP, vulnerable to necrotic)
Acererak: concentrate of a spell keeping an NPC out of the battle
Tante Lude: concentrate on a Summon Celestial
Celestial: Paralyzed (repeat save at the end of it's turn)
Tinkara: none (50 temp HP)

@badbaron please check and either tell me if I am wrong or choose either you let your summoned creature go or choose other action than casting Spirit Guardians

P.S. Acererak auto saved concentration on the spell when taking 10 damage. This is a meta spoiler: con save modifier is at least 9 (maybe more, but at least 9).

My fault, I screwed up, yes, I will change spirit guardians to another attempt to dispel magic on Acererake. Thank you.

While 14 is not enough, it doesn't really matter this time, but for dispell magic spell description say

Quote:

ability check using your spellcasting ability

It is 1d20+5

I will also hide celestial rolls -it is not his turn yet and it is paralyzed

Aug 18, 2025 4:51 am

Dang, I'm just screwing up right and left . . .

I've actually also made a mistake, not sure if you noticed that though. Anyway, here is some clarification:
Dispel magic say
"Any spell of 4th level or lower on the target ends"
In your case you choose Acererak as target. The spell Acererak is concentrating is not "on Acererak" it is on Orsik it will not be affected by dispell magic. It could affect any other magic if there are any of them on Lich, but I could hint you that even legendary monsters can't concentrate on more than 1 spell at a time.

No, you were using the concentration spell to deal with a player who wasn't here so I wasn't trying to disrupt that. I was trying again to take down the protection spells like Stone Skin, Contingency, etc. that he had on himself so that, at least, was accurate.

Celestial Defender is described quite laconic, but I see that the temp HP stuff is part of attack action. I understand it this way way: When your defender use it's Action to make two Melee Weapon Attacks and any attack hits the target it cause
A. radiant damage to target
B. celestial can choose itself or another creature to gain the temporary hit points

Since you didn't make an attack you didn't hit - you can't give temp HP

I'm not 100% if you really need to hit in order to give temp HP, but I'm sure you need to make an attack

Aug 18, 2025 3:58 pm

Yeah that was my guess. He's down to 2 HP.
