"This might work better if I knew you more, but it may give them pause, nonetheless."


Tirriam's features seemed to flow. Her clothing changed, revealing bare shoulders, and her hair became green. Her eyes opened, revealing a vibrant colour. If the princess looked at her, she'd have the strange occurrence of looking into her own eyes without using a mirror.

Use the hat of disguise to become a copy of the princess. Standard action. Disguise +12, Hat of Disguise brings it to +22 as per cast

"Right. Achronus! Have you a grease spell, cast it in front of the door. That'll prevent any charge of theirs. Once we blunt this assault, we'll start moving towards the dungeon. King, Princess, stay back."

Tirriam indeed looks exactly like the princess. The princess simply looked at Tirriam in surprise.

The King prepares for a fight.

"Indeed I do! This spell was supposed to grease the drawbridge's cogs, but it is time to put it to a more noble use!"
Achronus moves forward gestures to the front door, and a 10x10ft puddle of grease appears there.

The Princess just remains by Aland.

The doors burst open, and in come the soldiers!
FRONT DOOR:
Soldier 1 comes and passes through the grease with little trouble.
Soldier 2 enters in from the left side of the door and goes around the grease!
Soldier 3 enters and falls on his ass.
Soldier 4 enters and passes through the grease easily.

RIGHT DOOR:
All the soldiers charge through!
One, however, does not appear to be a mere soldier, but a tall gentleman wearing a cape and noble armor. Slicked back white hair and eyes like a viper's.
"Why if it isn't King Oshimar and his subordinates..."
"Lord Farlkan."
"Indeed I am. My Queen saw it fit to take appropriate action against your nation, so what better place to start with than Heartsing Keep?"
"We will not easily be defeated!"
"We'll see about that!"

Tirriam:
[5+9 (correct me if that's not how knowledge devotion works] Tirriam knows little of Lord Farlkan, only that he is a wealthy Faejurian. That he's right here must mean that he's involved in the military.

[20+5] He does however, know a lot about the soldiers. He knows that they are highly trained elite (kind of), and that one soldier doesn't post too much of a threat to them. More, however...
((Ill post their stats on the OOC thread))

Shoot Lord Farlkan, move toward that door that leads to the dungeon as far as possible.

"When you're dead, you'll get no sympathy from me!"

[14+7]Shai'ven fires at Lord Farlkan! The shot is true and flies at his chest before Farlkan suddenly snaps his hand up and bats the arrow to the side, swift as a viper itself.
"Your shot was true yet your arrow not."
[SPOT] In fact, it seems that Lord Farlkan seems to be carrying no weapons whatsoever. A monk, perhaps?

Anderson fires at Soldier 5!
The bolt strikes the armored soldier in the shoulder and deals 6 damage! His shoulder is now leaking warm sanguine blood as the bolt sticks out, the soldier gritting his teeth in pain.

Striding forward confidently Gwynovin hefted her maul "I recommend fleeing. I promise you those who flee will not be harmed. Nor will those who side with the King. I'd consider the offer. After all, the King has a Goddess on his side. No?" Gwynovin came to a stop next to the Court Mage "Go along then Mage. Leave this to us."

Move South 5.
Move South-West 1.
Activate Draconic Aura: Toughness [DR 2/Magic]
Use Breath Weapon: 30' Line of Acid  at Soldier 1 (Attempting to hit Soldier 2 as well). 2d6 damage. Reflex Halves.

Gwynovin moves and spits acid at the soldiers!

They both proceed to scream in pain, soldier 2 now covered in acid and grease.

((For some reason this didn't show up in my new replies.))

Tirriam gave her best impression of the princess' girly scream before subtly hucking a globe of sleep-smoke at the soldiers.

Move 4S, 4W (or a path that would give an effective route there)
Hurl a globe of sleep-smoke at the bottom point between soldiers 3 and 1
Bluff at +10 that it wasn't her, but someone else
