Ooh I'm looking forward to that, should be fun! (Laugh)
Daishain, is there a keyhole or anything else that would allow one of the party to see into the gatehouse, even if they only see a small fraction of the space in the room? (Misty step just requires the user to be able to see the space they'll be teleporting to as I understand it.)
Additionally, would Velon be able to wager a guess as to the type of lock that would typically be on the other side of such a door and how quickly one could open it from the inside? Not sure if that's something to roll on, or if it would be commonly known that such doors typically only can be opened with a key, are barred, etc. Perhaps they've seen other doors like this elsewhere in the keep.
Thanks!
There are no keyholes or other gaps. There is however a sliding viewport at about eyelevel (Closed at present). It looks as if the door is barred from the other side, and guards are rather likely to look before opening in response to a knock.
Cool, I had to edit my previous post since I was the last to post. I added Velon's action to help Poljen with his plan to try to open the door. If it goes south I described Velon attempting to teleport in and open the door asap.
Misty has quickly become my favorite spell for Velon. As opposed to a squishy sorcerer using it to get out of trouble, it's been fun to use it to get in the thick of things and mix it up, and as just a Bonus Action too. Blur is cool too but it's hard to see its true effect since the Dungeon Master rolls vs. AC happen behind the Dungeon Master screen. He'll never match Poljen's HP and damage absorption so I'm glad to be a secondary tank and find situational ways to help beyond just melee strikes here and there.
Poppo has a disguise self available but does have to maintain that concentration or as said, the boys are out in the open with big bad dragon dude coming at them. He does have other offensive spells that don't require concentration so he can add some firepower if we need it.
Ugh. That's a good point. Zarra has that spell as well. That would be perfect to disguise herself as a guard. She could be one of the elvish ones and she is fluent in elvish. This is the perfect time for that spell or charm person.
