So can normal dispel magic and mordenkainen's disjunction...
 A bag of holding keeps it somewhat safe, and ideally you would have a spare in a vault somewhere...

Given how we are, well, dead, I doubt the orcish god is about to let me break out of his personal plane and access a would be vault somewhere else. As for the Bag of Holding, a single arrows is all that'd be required for its contents to be permanently lost; not all that much of a bad choice, true, but a paranoid wizard knows well enough to heavily ward his book and place a contigent geas ordering the offender to return the book.

Mage's Disjunction is rarely, if ever, accounted for, players won't use it since it destroys the would be loot and most DMs notice that they won't have many players if they make an habit out of permanently destroying the party's magical gear.

Beargutter shifted his weight and looked over at Roland with a hostile glare, nearly slashing him in the process. "You don't look like a fiend, who the hell are you?"

((OOC: I have just thought of a way of escaping the arena, but it serves little purpose; had any of us sold our souls to an archdevil in life, the two deities would be forced to turn us over to Baator, lest they break the Pact Primaveal. Of course, being sent to the Nine Hell's torture cells is far worse than anything the two deities in question would expose us to! Well... Except one of the two deities was Cyric, then one might as well choose Baator :P))

Turn 2
Quote from: Init
Aloth (da dwarf lord) [19 + 5] = 24
Beargutter (Fool) [18 + 3] = 21
Nestren Dustril (Doomblade) [16 + 3] = 19
Ramiel (Powder Miner) [15 + 3] = 18
Roland (JackOfTheBox) [13 + 3] = 16
Tashy Fiendrender (RAM) [13 - 1] = 12
Hans (Grek) [3+3] = 6

((Question : was there a 15th level player? I don't remember.))


Aloth slinks towards the hill. Move Silently [9+5]=14

<invisible>
<silently : 14>
position : (-17.3,40 ft)

Beargutter rushes to the top of hill. The flag's colors shift and form an image of a roaring human.

Quote
"Where are you foul demons?! I may have died, but you shall taste my steel yet!"

The silence replies.

Listen [16+15]=31 You hear someone moving to the south-west, but cannot see where.

<Ready: Anyone who gets close enough to be hit is attacked.>

position: (0,0)

Nestren advances to (-30,30 ft).
Listen [4+4]=8
Quote
What's going on now?


Ramiel moves silently ([7+10]=17.

The man named Beargutter seems to be aware of you...

<invisible>
<MS 17>
position (137.3,40ft)


Roland walks next to Beargutter and is almost attacked.

<Fight defensively>


Tashy casts Triad Spell on a Necromantic Cyst and also walks twenty feet.

Quote
"Advance to the top and gain a prize? I can do that!"

<Triadspell -> Necromantic Cyst>
<Conviction : +3 to saves>


Hans sneaks towards the hill and ends at (-90,40 ft).

Move Silently : [9+11]=20

<Hide : 23><MS 20>



"Oh, right, I admit that I forgot one rule. While it's really amusing to watch you all hacking at each other, that's not good for the long term sustainability of these games. Therefore, there shall be non-playing characters whose only objective is to throw you from that hill! Enjoy."

The guttural voice of the orc god echoes through the plain.
The more daintier by far voice of some other female demigod picks up. "To give you at least a sporting chance, I shall explain your current foes. First, to the south you may see one Retriever, courtesy of the demons. It has been tasked to retrieve the flag on the top of the hill. To the north are three invisible Hellcats, this time sponsored by our good friends in Hell; beware their invisible pounce and venerable claw/claw/bite/rake. More enemies to fight with shall be placed as the rounds pass. Good luck."

A Retriever has appeared to the south.

"Great. Just my luck. Ah well, it'll work."

Cast protection from evil on myself and move up next to Roland.

((Roland is the level 15- a knight.))

Ramiel moved to 20 feet south of the hill silently, simply casting Grease on the ground in front of the retriever. He preferred not to be speared by spider-demon-machines, thank you very much.
Initiative: +3
Move Silently +10

Beargutter turned to the south, pushing Roland's shoulder to get by him. "If you want to take this hill you'll have to get through me!" Beargutter's eyes widened as he grew a good foot or two taller. His muscles rippled as his full-plate spaced, pushing the metal outwards to allow the sudden growth. He held out his double spear, digging a tip into the ground in case the retriever felt like rushing him. "Whoever you all are, stand with me! We're being toyed with for someone else's games, but we will not lay down our weapons! We will fight!"

Sheet: Yep.
Free Action: Mountain RAGE!
Move Action: Move 30 ft towards Retriever.
Standard Action: Ready double spear against charger for great damage.


EDIT: Keep in mind that this is the mountain rage Goliath racial option from Races of Stone. I'm large now. I'm like the Hulk with a weapon.

Going to continue sneaking towards the top of the hill. If I get there with actions to spare, I'll cast obscuring mist and gloat amid my new concealment.
