Hmm, so that wouldn't be forbidden by the Plot God? Cool... might be the only way we can get close, if he's not planning to teleport to us anymore.

Let's see, borrow Elorin's Ioun stone, use a quick Limited Wish-PsychicWhatsit to change Spell Focus to Divination, cast Fox's Cunning, use Greater Scrying... Will save DC 29, running at a -1 to his save all told... hopefully he doesn't have great Will saves.

Yeah, but now I've picked up an actual copy of Permanency I won't need to use it nearly as much. Besides, where's the fun in vast cosmic power if you don't use it? Speaking of which... I'll pick up Control Weather just because it's cool, and not because I want to call up disasters upon innocent cities, no really, I don't...

The discussion about summoning angels to do healing/resurrecting for the Archmages got me thinking about this: What would the Baron of the Adamine have done if someone had pointed out that, while the Wish once a month he was getting from the demon was pretty good, Solars get Wish once per day.

D&D's universe is insane.

And I'd just repeat myself on that subject.

Well, for one, no Solar worth the name (and most of them are....) would cooperate with him....

And for another, the lowly Efreeti (also the Noble of the Djinni) get three per day ... that they can't use themselves (the Solar, however, has no such limitation, and may very well want to save it for something other than willing payment.... like just deserts).

1) Fox's Cunning doesn't stack with the Headband of Intellect you normally wear.
2) How many primary spellcasters DON'T have, at a minimum, Good will saves?
3) How far back in the archives have you read? This particular Sorceror has been in the plot for a while....

But I will let the mechanics play out.

1) I just realised, 2) could be overcome with multiple attempts, and 3) we have archives?
