[OOC] Return to the Rusty Rat

[DM Surranó]

3) Portho left immediately after his spell and while Toot waited for Torin to move, Torin asked his question then moved (a side effect of turn-based gameplay). BTW I remembered dwarven march incorrectly. Torin's base speed is indeed 20ft not 15ft as I assumed. Next round, Portho moved further, Toot caught up with defensive Torin, then Torin moved even further. At this point I assumed we can use the "relaxed" turn-based stuff as I explained so basically Toot moved along with Torin, with the dwarf being continuously blocking his way of overtaking. As for telling anything; certainly he could answer the "duergar = gray dwarf" part.

5) Boo is probably more careful than running in this situation since he can't move any more than the dwarf without risking an AOO. Plus, no running around corners according to rules, right? (maybe one could have an "agile runner" feat for that

6) Noted and not forgotten.

7) No. Concentrating to maintain a spell is a std action whereas total defense is also a std action. So the illusion is gone as soon as Portho chose to withdraw in total defense (which, by the way, made it unnecessary for Boo to make his save ) As for line of sight; it's pretty much blocked by the corner just 10 feet beyond where the illusion was.

8) Good points. The draft is in Giant's favour (Boo caught scent of Torin and Portho from 60ft but sensed Lugar only from 15ft) but yes, Boo actually spotted the half-orc. I don't think he could've informed his master about what he saw, esp. the bow part.
