Sorry, Raven, Scott and Socratic.
It's been 3 days. Got to move this along.

So the trees are "free"? I wonder if that's a permanent thing, or we killed the things ensorcelling them?
At this point Rudolph in uninquisitive about the under-altar, if my bandolier of +6 daggers that awaits me down there gets melted in the flash of lightning, so be it!

I do worry that if the lid is destroyed, what might stream out though...

Imma just let the ranger curse the altar though, cause he’s so good at the cussing and all.

Hey guys,
I'm correcting a ruling I made yesterday: PCs that made their Save vs Spells vs Entangle may pass unhindered through the area of effect (at half speed) for the duration of the spell. Thanks.

Fyi, the witches' stats were greatly informed by the article, "Brewing Up a New NPC: The Witch" from Dragon magazine #43, published in November of 1980.

They were pretty freaky.

Did that article appear in any of the "Best of" series?

I was wondering where they might have been from.

Time to go check the PDF collection.

Rudolph acts all brave, but deep inside he's like:

What should we do once the Call Lightning gets interrupted?

Run away of course.

It’ll be a fitting end for Rudolph if he gets fried by a friendly fire lightning bolt.

Telkis is going to ask these guys for his drained level back.

Don't know.

I found my copies and looked - it doesn’t. There is a different article on a witch npc class that’s pretty wack-a-doodle, though.

Can Brevos not move? Rudolph wants to get as far away as possible, but if he needs to cut the ranger out he's likely in the best position to do so.

Brevos isn't entangled.

As per the "rolls and rulings" spoiler, I elected to not have him re-enter the area of effect of Bo's Entangle spell, or he would have been trapped again.

The one time I didn't read that!

But okay, Rudolph definitely continues to hotfoot it out of there. Would have liked to toss a torch down there, but hopefully the oil adds a little extra something to Bo's attack!

One other question, only because it really matters for us:

Inferno wrote:...
Ingrid's Turn Undead duration: [3d4] = 5 5 rounds.
...
Turn Undead (Ingrid): Targets: Z1, Z2. Duration: 3 rounds
Call Lightning (Bo): Casting time remaining: 8 rounds.

Do we have to worry about the last 5 rounds of Bo's casting time or the last 3 rounds?
Thanks Inferno!

He silently wishes there was someone nearby him to intercept the next horror that shows itself out here. For he believes that these evil bastards will will stop at nothing to prevent him from destroying this unholy place.

I do think it's time for us to gather together again for safety and to allow Bo to finish the spell. We are too spread out, and Bo is WAY too isolated over there.

Also under 'rolls and rulings:' This DM post covered two melee rounds.

So Ingrid turns the undead for 5 rounds. And Bo begins a spell that needs 10 rounds to cast.

My post advanced the action 2 rounds, so now Ingrid's turning has 3 rounds left, and Bo's casting has 8 rounds left. Make sense?

At the end of this DM post I requested actions for the next 3 rounds, or until the time that Ingrid's turning ends. The tension is building!
