Why do they always do this to me

High IQ

He's too far beyond everyone

If he’s high IQ

he should have a plan

It's typical to allow the player to come up with a plan.

Well

Maybe when the player is competent

So the psychic man has got a few lengths of vines, probably from the fey and cave walls. It's tied up into a makeshift rope. He was the arrow shot at him. A ring which has some sort of magical protective properties. The knife he gave you. Several pieces of cloth. A few large stones. And a branding iron.

Oh

Wow

He also has a spell component pouch he's kept with him for a while.

Psychic: "Okay, you're a summoner right? What spells have you got prepared, maybe I have the materials needed."

So I can

Summon monster

summon dragon man

daylight

message

"I know you're a summoner, but what spells did you mentally prepare? You know, from those spellbooks and whatnot."

Uh

Wouldn’t that be

Nothing

"Acid splash? You got acid splash? How about barbed chains? Feather fall? Anything?!"

That’s level 1 man

I’m level 0

“Uh.. ha.. haha..”

In a figurative or literal sense?

Uh

Literal?

Psychic: "FFFF- Mmmph, okay okay okay! Here's your little bag and your candle for summoning. Summon your stupid mongrels, or whatever other thing you want!"

alrighty

Psychic: "We need to break out of these bars somehow."

"What can you summon?"

/r d20+1

@Gent: d20+1 = (6)+1 = 7

Uh

Carry on

ok..

“I can summon my eidolon, it should be able to break the cages.”

“Or I could summon a bunch of

Psychic: "What is it, some sort of gorilla? I don't think even those can break these cages..."

"Can you melt it? Is it a slime man?"

“It’s kind of like a dragon? It can breath fire and is fairly powerful in its own right”

"FUC- uurrrgh..."

"A dragon...."

“It could melt the bars maybe?”

“Or at least weaken them enough that’d it be able to pull them apart”

"With fire breath?!? What's the power on it, 4d10?"

that’s too meta

get out of here

"I'd say these bars would take at least a 6d8."

stop

no

"Maybe 3d12 could do it.."

So uh

/ 3d12

You don’t think that fire on its own could melt the bars

Or weaken them

because if not

I’m out of ideas

"If only we had something hotter...."

oh uh

we could use the branding iron?

idk

"This old thing? It doesn't just cut through steel, buddy."

"Or..."

does it?

He clanks it into the bars.

vinesauce music

"No"

he just

hit it with the branding thing

"But..."

is it even hot

"If we can get it hot...really, REALLY hot...."

We could maybe get it to the lava.. somehow?

or just get lava over here somehow

"The lava, huh?"

"Got anything that can fly?"

fuck
