Yeah I was going to suggest maybe casting it on Poljen and having all of us stand back over 100 ft. Away, except for him and the Craturtle. Then Poljen can hammer away at it. Just in case he can somehow still possess people.
I also love the idea of trying to convince the turtle to go back in somehow.
So you mean cast the Protection From Good & Evil on Poljen and let him go nuts on the thing? I like this plan. I'm proud to be a part of it!
The one issue, though it should not be much of one, is I think Poljen has now used the fourth and final Rage Of The Day. But he can still crack the bejeezus out of that thing.
Protection from good and evil last for 10 minutes so I really hope a rage is not necessary.
This strategy may be a stretch but, Nikolaos can also cast animal friendship once per day. Not sure if it would work on a person who is polymorphed into a beast. Also I don't have a way to speak turtle. But it might make it possible to get him to return voluntarily.
Okay, so what are we doing guys? Going with Perry's suggestion?
We're almost done with this chapter, so I'll go ahead and mention this, everyone is going up to level 9 when you guys leave this place. Tazskan can go ahead and make his shift to full warlock. I think it would be easier to handle that as a retcon than a major substory, just act as if he'd always been a full warlock.
Poljen is ready to try the smashing. But if someone wants to try something like Niko's scaring, go for it. But if no one has the ability to do that, smash it is. Remember, if we drop him from the bridge, even if we use feather fall, we have to go down and get him back at some point. Whether he is a turtle or a monk!
Sorry I didn't see Daishain's post here before I posted in the main thread. I have a bad habit of over thinking and slowing down the game. Going to go and edit in the main thread to give an expedited option.
Also I am excited to level up.
Ive, already made an attempt Dai to communicate turtle. But the roll, wasn't high. But, I agree with Perry's suggestion, if there isn't any other option.
For Poljen, to smash away at the crystal containing the heart. If that's what has to be done. Other, than another attempt to communicate, with Diderious again, I don't know any other way.
What does Tazskan, do about his +2 two-handed sword and mithral plate? Convert to +2 mace? And glamoured +1 studded leather?
When Tazskan, converts to full Warlock, its leather and simple weapons only.
Go ahead and swap out the armor and weapon for some equivalent you're comfortable with. Glamoured Studded Leather would be a good choice. Mace wouldn't be a bad idea, but bear in mind that eldritch blast will be your primary weapon.
