Salnius watched the scene with growing horror. He had heard of these collars, and thought them evil most foul. Well, except in one case he had heard of, in which a woman and a collar could be rented for a period of time, under appropriate supervision to ensure that only half of the collar's power was exercised. That, he supposed, was only a mild evil of the sort that even virtuous men might be tempted to consider from time to time. With proper atonement afterward. And no more than once in a moon. Perhaps twice if there were a festival. When was the next festival, anyway?<br/><br/>Aegon's signal brought the seer back to the present. It was to be a fight then. The odds were more than fair, even assuming that the already collared man would be forced to fight on their enemies' behalf. A fair fight was not something Salnius was interested in. Taking advantage of the element of surprise, he produced a small piece of iron wire and twisted it back onto itself, forming a knot.<br/><br/>"By Prometheus' wretched liver let ye be bound like the Titan himself!" He extended his finger toward the man holding the collar and felt the power of the gods flow through him.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">Salnius casts <em>Hold Person</em> at Man #2. The DC for his Will save is 18. If he fails the save, he's paralyzed for six rounds, with a new chance to save each round. <br/>As I understand the rules, Salnius doesn't get to move as well as cast in this surprise round.<br/><br/>His initiative roll, for starting next round, is a 9. http://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=46069 (http://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=46069)<br/></div></div>
