Fire wouldn't even drive out the vampires directly. They live in the sewers. The trick is, they have to keep the entire city from burning down or they lose everything.

Though given the extent of the fires of 1373 (assuming that Westgate map I have isn't depicting some fan-made event), they could lose a good portion of the city in any case.

Like I said... where is the line drawn? A city held under the NightMasks and Banites, or burnt to the ground?

SirNitram commented that he'd played and RPed with paladins who would be hard pressed to find the line... and some who would burn the city themselves.

Wow... that was a short but great battle for the griffon. :-D I'm glad he ripped the nightmare's throat out! Let's see what happens when Razhal hits the ground.

I'm betting Nalifan had a great view of that too.. ;)

The bastard just won't fucking die. Lance through his chest, a hundred foot fall, and he's still threatening death rather than dying like he by rights should be.

When you're a cleric of that level, nothing short of chopping off your head is going to keep you down. If you can cast a spell, you can heal.

He's an evil cleric with other things prepared, though. He's gotta run out of 'em eventually. :razz:

Uh no, he can't. He has to be a positive energy channeller (non-evil) for that. Of course with his thunder stick and love and melee, he probably carries a lot.

Ahh... well I learn something new everyday :grin: Are there spells he can trade out for, or should I just bug Nitram into looking it up for me?

Trizkel knew the importance of Gaheris getting revenge, hence letting him get the finish on an asshole of Razhal's magnitude. Now its time to get down to the nasty work :twisted:.

No, he did it because Razhal would hate it.

Revenge? No. Justice, always.

He does what he must. Messing with Nalifan isn't in the cards right now, but should it become necessary, then he is the instrument of justice.

That's a battle Kaeryn will sadly excuse herself from. Hopefully Astinius will have the sense to do the same.

It's one that I don't anticipate happening. Gaheris isn't a fool; he wouldn't try to bring in Nalifan regardless. Unless Nal starts blowing up innocents in front of him so that he must interfere right at that very instant to prevent slaughter, then nothing doing.

Yeah, that's something Astinius might do...As far as he would be concerned, Nal is just as evil as the nightmasks at this point, but even more dangerous

Just make sure he gets to go into a moralistic diatribe about how the METHODS of victory separate good and evil. How decent people succeed DESPITE the weaknesses they subject themselves due to morality, and in the end, because of this success won more difficultly and through greater personal sacrifice, they are better for it.

Of course, I am sure you were planning on that regardless

(And dont forget, he IS just as smart as Nalifan)

Poor Astinus, if he only knew what he was truly heading to. I guess he is not aware Nalifan wont be alone when he arrives to gie "Moral Justice" to the evil dispicable Drow mage.

Astinus and Gaheris failed to do what Nalifan accomplished, but they can now both sleep at night now that they have saved Westgate without having to compromise thier morals :roll: .

Depends on his exact course of action. If I know my creation, and I do, he would do the moralistic diatribe before ever casting a spell.

Yeah but if Astinus took just a moment to think of the fate of Westgate and thier own lives if Nalifan had not taken the steps he had, he might just get past his the fact that a small sacrifice is better in the end in comparison to what could have happened.
