Desdichado climbs up some of the nearby rubble to take a look at the city before they go. Hopefully the destruction is even less now.
"A few of us can put up some protection from fire damage. I'm not sure what else we can do to prepare, really."
Gaffer - Courtney - HP: 217/217 AC: 41(T:24/FF:32) CMD:43) Sunday October 27th, 2024 5:22:34 PM
Gaffer suddenly realises what he should have asked and groans to himself. "Not knowing if we'll be going to another plane is a bit of a hindrance. This is probably the time we're most likely to appear somewhere immedietely harmful."
Gaffer will offer both Resist Energy and Endure Elements to anyone who wants it pre or post teleporting. Planning to wait until after teleporting to cast them on himself.
Gaffer will shift into a fire elemental before they activate the stone. He will cast a Barkskin spell however, as he has a few spare.

Hmerrin takes in Dirt City.
"Three down, two to go," he notes. "Hopefully without any more side trips."
With fire being next, the fighter checks his ring. "I've got fire resistance," he relays. "So, no need for the spell out of the gate anyway."
"Same deal, though. Let's get a good night sleep. We're healed but spellcasters still need some rack time and get those spells back."
Hmerrin takes his own advice and gets some sleep.
The next day he's up and next to Gaffer.

Danko agrees with Hmerrin.
"I'm all for some sleep... "
The Meal is... nourishing - coDM SteveK Monday October 28th, 2024 6:47:17 AM
Yrûl speaks excitedly with the refugees that she is not wet. They in turn confirm the heroes have been gone only about 5 minutes. A little math by The Tide confirms the passage of time for the refugees each time nearly matches the time our heroes have spent underwater, in the air, and in Jericho Space.
Desdichado climbs up some of the nearby rubble to take a look at the city, and Hmerrin also looks around. The systematic leveling of Cloaktown and Dartville is gone, again replaced with the swath of destruction that looks like a child running though leaves... In fact, four fifths of Dirt City look like that, only North Pack, South Pack, and Blade City appearing as if they were engulfed by a huge conflagration.
Counting down Gimp's verse, the heroes agree to settle down for the night and prepare various spells and abilities that could help them in against a fire monster in a place of fire, hoping that it will not take them to another plane of existence.
The refugees offer the heroes the meal they had prepared, as well as bedding cobbled together from various locations. When morning comes, the heroes take an hour for meditation, study, and a meal, before...
..............
ooc: Heroes have the initiative. Please indicate relative location and any preparation spells and abilities set.

After that, he is ready to go.

"Thanks for the meal" says Desdichado, "And hopefully we'll see you all again in a few minutes."
The paladin holds onto his greataxe and tries to be ready for ending up somewhere...warm.
Hmerrin (MikeK)(HP 261/261 AC:39 T:25 FF:30 CMD:52) DR 5/- Monday October 28th, 2024 7:26:12 PM
Hmerrin also thanks the refugees. "This place looks a lot better when its intact," he promises.
The fighter places himself in front of Gaffer and hopes its the front when they appear.
"And here we go," he breathes, waiting for the druid to do his thing.
”I think we’re sort of all set...ish.” Yrûl said in a most unconvincing fashion. She wasn’t at all keen on being burnt and crispy. Just as bad – all that fire would likely mean a decided lack of shadow. She definitely needed the proffered protections, having none of her own.
”Thanks for taking care of us so nicely” She Thanked the refugees, genuinely feeling rather spoilt at that attention and care. Now she and her little gang just needed to do something nice for them: like stop a fiery nasty. It really wasn’t much of a plan, but it was all the plan she had. That and hiding! As soon as they appeared – wherever it was they were going, she was going to slip into whatever gloom she could find.

Gaffer waits for the others to gather around him and gives them each a moment to confirm they are ready, then triggers the stone.

The city is still in total ruin. It might be that even just one of the creatures can cause all of this destruction. It seems the only way we're going to save the city is by defeating every one of them" Nira observes. "I hope Lila keeps her word"
Nira casts her daily assortment of spells and then uses her Wand of Endure Elements and Wand of Resist Energy on the party.
She stands behind Gaffer.
