JR3
Actually, no wait, I'm sorry. Not all 6 undead can fit around John Romeo with everyone else in melee. 6 attackers max. Brogg, Moth, Marivhon, Dave FoO, Schmektor, and Tut I'm assuming. 6 skeletons stand around.
Into Round 3, okay Mar, you get a hit. JR's a little more than halved. Hmm, who's the threat here... I guess it's Brogg, the other potential healer. Brogg, hit for 20, make a save vs. Death Magic.
...
Back in time, you try I MINDFLAY in the Private terminal, and learn something interesting...
According to Guild analysis, the biggest threat the otherworlders hold is the disruption of infrastructure, and widespread fear/panic. Rumors of the KoA alone could lead to isolationism, dispersal, and an eventual depletion of resources (incl. manpower). What's needed most then is a way to contain/control crowd dynamics.
Guildmaster Steve (MPG/Grito) presented an interesting idea that we should follow up on- recruiting an otherworlder ourselves to deal with the KoA and potentially gain more information on where they come from, e.g. putative weaknesses.
Discussion with other Guild members of standing, incl. Master Parsifal, seconded this motion, particularly the choice of an illithid monitor as the abomination to obtain. A mindflayer under our control would be the perfect ally for containing and directing crowd mentality, and could be useful for influencing other political problems (i.e., MoP in Durth).
These creatures are notoriously resistant to magic (ritual/hermetic, 95% MR), but have been known to pass through mirror portals on occasion. Usually this is a negative side effect of the mirrors, but with the right 'bait', it is plausible that one such creature could be coerced out of the mirror.
Funds and space have been obtained for two such experiments.
