LuckyDee:
Oooooh and I still have my Lesser Planar Ally to do some dirty work for me, too... goodie!

slave:
So I'm assuming that the new arrivals did not notice Berak or his Shaped Consciousness. Since Berak is still in the corridor, I'm also assuming that Berak is not in a position that is visible to them. Is the Shaped Consciousness even something that that are able to detect? Would I have to roll for stealth if I were to try to sneak away to warn the others?

Assuming that Isirius would be able to lure them into the room that the others are in and we were waiting for them in ambush, would that give us a surprise round?

Also, how exactly does stealth against monsters work. Do they roll against your stealth roll or is there some DC that the stealth roll has to beat?

And most importantly, is escaping a combat area allowed if we are in trouble?

EDIT: Also, LuckyDee, how good is Isirius's bluff skill?

Malek Deneith:
They did not notice Berak not Shaped Consciousness yet. Conjurations are visible so they'll probably notice the consciousness shortly, after they stop focusing on first thing that came into their view. As for Berak's physical body they probably won't notice him at the moment, but since we established the corridor is visible from the door to room where the party is, the opposite holds true also, even if the fact the human is on stairs down and has to look past Isirius makes it harder for him. Now based on your posts I am interpreting Berak as being at least partially through the short corridor so... I'd say you have a fair chance of remaining unnoticed if you keep still but trying to move away would require a Stealth check.

@Ambush - depends on how exactly it would play out

@Stealth - stealth rolls are usually made against passive Perception.

@Escaping combat - you could try but then again your opponents could follow you as well. Keep in mind that you're not exactly familiar with lay of the land around the Cairn.

slave:
- Is Bluff also against passive Insight?

- Would teleportation also require a stealth check?

- Would Isirius be able to get through the door leading to the room where the other are and around the corner with 2 run actions?

Malek Deneith:
@Bluff - under normal circumstances yes

@Teleportation - that would work without a stealth check but any encounter power used like that would be spent for the following combat if any (unless you'd somehow manage to stall for five minutes or more and spend that time resting)

Also, to be transparent, since conjurations are visible I am going to rule that it's disappearance (due to being intentionally unsummoned or due to you leaving the range needed to maintain it) would incur a small chance (I'm thinking a perception roll for the enemy vs high-ish DC for the level) to notice that something just happened. They won't be sure exactly what happened in such situation, but they'll know *something* did if they make the check.

Edit: @Isirius and running - if running, barely so
