While Aria went about collecting the treasures with the two bags of holding, Kass went and took to the tomes and maps.  The map, as it were, had an area encompassing the range of the spell drawn upon it... perhaps they could use the map to determine the center of the spell, and teleport there!  She was not familiar with how the more potent forms of teleportation worked, but she figured that it must be more accurate than her own teleportation spell and that of the runestaff, so perhaps this would be enough.  As for the tomes... rather new by comparison, some in a language she didn't realize (but would later when she got the chance to read them with her spells upon her), but the one she could read was one of legends... and had a page marked containing information on the statue of Adon, which made Kass grin, knowing that, once again, she was right about her instincts.<br/><br/>Packing away the books and map, careful not to tear or break anything or demolish something to the point of unreadable nature, and it was not long after this point that she heard a commotion from deeper in the tomb.  Then she heard Aria shouting, and swore beneath her breath; was there nowhere she could go here in the Prime Material that things weren't trying to kill her?  Heartfire was so much safer... but then again, this place was more interesting...<br/><br/>Rushing out of the room she was in and down towards Aria, her blade sliding from it's holster as she went, she would make a choice soon enough: either she cast a spell upon the beast-one of the few she still could afford and had the energy to cast anyway-that would slow it greatly and put the odds more in their favor, or otherwise she'd simply hum her little tune to herself and prepare for whatever was to come...<br/><br/>Sorry my replying has been less  frequent recently; it should go back to 2-3 times a day soon enough, save for the weekends naturally.<br/><br/>Okay, I assume she'd have some time while Aria is moving to put the tomes and the map in her haversack, right?  I was writing this based on that assumption, because otherwise she'd pack those away first (I assume a full-round action?)  Oh... and what do you mean when you say 'stone-table-<strong><em>cum</em></strong>-desk?  Not sure why the 'cum' is there...<br/><br/>Anyway, assuming she had time to pack the stuff away, it's a move action 40' to head up as far as she could go while drawing her blade in the process, though what happens next is variable:<br/><br/>A.) If she can see the creature and it is within 115', then she will cast Slow (DC21 Will, which does affect Constructs as a Transmutation spell) and a BM on Snowflake Wardance<br/><br/>B.) If she cannot see the creature or it is out of range, then Kass will simply use one BM on Inspire Courage, and another on Snowflake Wardance<br/><br/>EDIT: I looked up the creature, and it has SR, sorry I can't give you a full E diceroll atm, but my CL check is 18 + 8 = 26... which should beat it unless it has more SR than the MMII says... and of course this only matters if she can see it and slow it
