conversations:  Buff rounds? I'd at least like all days up, and I'll do up to four rounds.
  
  As for the map, how about  :
   
  
  Normal Lighting, room temperature, no special wind conditions, etc.
  
  If you want something different, feel free to suggest, but I need lots of space, so neither of the columns maps work.

   Spoiler 
  Round 1: Me: Use Bead of Karma, activate Heart of Water
                    Familiar: Use Scroll of GoI, Activate Heart of Water
  Round 2: Me: Use Scroll of Arcane Spellsurge, Cast Shield on familiar
                    Familiar: Cast Righteous Might, Cast Scintillating Scales
  Round 3: Me: Use Scroll of Dragonshape on familiar, activate Heart of Earth
                    Familiar: Cast Mass Conviction, Activate Heart of Earth
  
  Rolls: Familiar UMD for GoI:  (1d20+20)[ 14 ](34)  Needs a 31, or rather to not roll a natural one.
  
  Edit: I should note that my familiar should have had +30, but it worked regardless.
   
  
  Edit: You see a gargantuan Red Dragon in A9-D12. On his back is a small Kobold with a golden tinge to his scales. He wears a cloak, a silvery chain shirt, and a similarly silvery buckler. I have no special detection modes, but the dragon has blindsense out to 60 feet.
conversations: Claudius Maximus:
conversations: human
conversations:  Sides, Detection modes, and appearances?
conversations: lvl 1 sharnian:
conversations: human
conversations:  I edited all that into my last post. What do I see?
conversations: Claudius Maximus:
conversations: human
conversations:  You see a crowd of 7 black haired/eyed humans wearing no special clothing, but they all carry a scroll in one hand and wear ornate cloaks on their backs.  They all have see invisibility and 100ft mindsight.
  
  With that, I believe we can begin the battle.
  
  Btw do I have take out both you and the dragon?
conversations: lvl 1 sharnian:
conversations: human
conversations:  It will live on after I die. If it kills you then, I would call it a draw.
  
  The Dragon Charges you. Are you stopping the charge?
  
  If it comes within 100 feet of you:
   
   Spoiler 
  It is of the Dragon type and has 18 intelligence. The Kobold is also of the Dragon type, but has only 14 intelligence.
   
  
  My turn is not over at all.
  
  Edit: I forgot to mention that the Red Dragon's scales are all glowy and glittery. As a Sorcerer, you can probably tell that it has Scintillating Scales up.
  
  Also, make a knowledge (Arcana) check to learn about it.
  
  Edit2: Yeah, it can't charge you at all, with the obstructions in the way. Instead, it moves southeastish, going up as it moves, then flies over the trees in the middle and dives at you, ending its move in U9-X12 unless you are in column Z, in which case it ends in V9-Y12.

conversations:  Move to Z16 and cast

   (1d20+9)[ 11 ] 
  
  If that misses, I will still have actions remaining
  
  btw unless you have protection or something, Type and Int of you and your dragon?
conversations: lvl 1 sharnian:
conversations: human
conversations:  Take a look at post #9 for that information. Moreover, I never ended my turn, instead waiting to see if you were going to do some kind of immediate action to stop it.
  
  So does the dragon reach its destination? You should specify which square you're in, by the way.
conversations: Claudius Maximus:
conversations: human
conversations:  Oh, so sorry I thought you ended, but I'm still in Y10.
conversations: lvl 1 sharnian:
conversations: human
conversations:  Sorry about the wait.
  
  The dragon moves as stated earlier and tries to attack you.
  
  If it gets within 10 feet:
   
   Spoiler 
  You're in a Globe of Invulnerability. All spell effects of 4th level or lower are suppressed. Due to the wording of GoI, spells cast before it are not affected, so your all day buffs are good. This was cast during the first buff round, and I won initiative, so I think it would affect all your spells cast during the buff rounds.
  
  If you let it get to its destination (adjacent to you):
   
   Spoiler 
  The dragon tries to bite you, but in such a way as to grapple you.
  
  If that goes uninterrupted:
   
   Spoiler 
    Attack roll vs touch AC  - (1d20+40)[ 44 ] 
    Grapple Check to establish hold  - (1d20+51)[ 68 ] 
  I forgot to roll for mirror image (actually I forgot you had it, or I would have done something about it). The roll for that is in the next post.
   
  
   
  
   
  
  At any rate, I still have actions.
conversations: Claudius Maximus:

conversations: Claudius Maximus:

conversations:  Something seems to have gone wrong with that.
  
  Look in here if you are referred by my other post:
   
   Spoiler 
    Mirror Images where you are 1  - (1d7)[ 3 ] 
  
  Edit: One image goes poof.
   
conversations: Claudius Maximus:
conversations: human
conversations:  I would think that all my spells cast before coming in range of GoI would be valid unless you somehow gave it a larger than 10ft radius?
  
  I thought blindsense negates mirror images?
conversations: lvl 1 sharnian:
conversations: human
conversations:  You're thinking of Blindsight. Blindsense is a bit less useful.
  
  GoI's wording is indeed pretty wonky, but it literally says that "spells already in effect when the globe is cast" are not affected. Technically, all spells are cast before they enter its area, even instantaneous spells. It seems the age of the spell is the big issue.
conversations: Claudius Maximus:
conversations: human
conversations:  Going on the fact that you knew about the mirror images, I assume that the Dragon made the attack and failed. I will take the rest of my actions.
  
  First, the Kobold casts Greater Blindsight.
  
  Then, he casts Wings of Flurry on you as a swift action.
  
    Damage  - (18d6)[ 55 ] 
    SR check  - (1d20+18)[ 33 ] 
  
  The Reflex save DC is 26. You are dazed if you fail it.
  
  End turn when these are resolved.
conversations: Claudius Maximus:
conversations: human
conversations:  Reflex Save  (1d20+15)[ 20 ] 
  
  I don't suppose I could use wings of cover right now could I?
  
  Edit: I'm dazed
conversations: lvl 1 sharnian:
conversations: human
conversations:  Characters are supposed to be flat-footed until they act, but this is often ignored or forgotten in ToS matches. It's not explicitly a rule, but it seems like a common practice. This would mean that as long as I keep dazing you, you never become un-flat-footed.
  
  You still fail your save even with Wings of Cover's +4 bonus and you are still dazed, so the impact is minimal.
  
  Actions: The Kobold casts Greater Dispel Magic on you.
  
  Further actions depend on results of GDM.
  
  Edit: Wings of cover may actually be very helpful right now. Until we get a ruling, I will allow you to cast it, and act as if neither of us are flat footed.
conversations: Claudius Maximus:
conversations: human
conversations:  Arcane Spellsurge DC 29
  
  Oh forgot about flat-footedness, I was referring to the GoI as to whether or not I wing of cover
conversations: lvl 1 sharnian:
conversations: human
conversations:  Wow, that's a much more important reason why it wouldn't work, huh?
  
  Yeah, you can't cast it in the GoI.
  
  Edit: Wow, I forgot about it so much, that I didn't realize it would have negated your mirror images. So yeah, the dragon chose the right target. Did it get you in its grapple?
conversations: Claudius Maximus:
conversations: human
conversations:  Unless a natural 20 succeeds in a grapple check, he got me.  So far, I am reminded that I need to revamp the spell list... so long ago, I must have been really tired when I made this guy
conversations: lvl 1 sharnian:
conversations: human
conversations:  I'll just keep casting Wings of Flurry and it will just go on squishing you, so yeah.
  
  The Globe was mostly to keep Wings of Cover, Mirror Image and Freedom of Movement from working. I'm surprised I managed to forget about it after encountering two of the three reasons I cast it.
conversations: Claudius Maximus:
conversations: human
conversations:  So match lost and I will go edit my spell list... need to add Dimension Door... does Metamagic get around GoI (besides Heighten)?
conversations: lvl 1 sharnian:
conversations: human
conversations:  Nope. I use heighten with this build (otherwise I couldn't have hit you with Wings of Flurry).
