Ok, if this is ok, Ill throw the humans a chain to grab on to, and then summon the elements - smoke and heat as per her hot smoke power. I imagine thats a full round (move action to throw a "rope", plus standard action to activate power)?

 

Incidentally the rage lasts 10 rounds?

[Vahnyu]

The rage lasts 10 rounds, yeah. It's been going on for some time, now (Currently has 4 rounds left).

 

Full Round Action for throwing the rope and using Hot Smoke sounds fine.

corrected, for posterity

[Supercape]

Knowledge roll on tablet: 1d20+5 13 for Knowledge: Arcane. 

 

If it pertains to Infernal I suppose Favoured Enemy feat gives +2 to that. 

[Vahnyu]

Knowledge [Arcane Lore]

DC5: There is a significant amount of mystical energy emanating from the stone tablet, but you are certain that it is not demonic in any way whatsoever. The tablet portrays a robed individual with four items around him, a sword, a chalice, a disk, and a scepter. It also has a word underneath it, followed by the character "I" of the basic latin alphabet. The word is "קוֹסֵם" which appears to be some sort of arabian/middle-eastern/afro-asiatic word.

 

On the back, the tablet has a single circular peg, protruding no more than the width of a finger. You can feel that the energy emanating from the tablet appears to be "magnetized", pointing towards a general direction, as if attracted to it.

 

DC10: In fact, the tablet portrays a depiction of the Magician, one of the Major Arcana in Tarot cards. The items, you remember, symbolize the four Minor Arcana of the Tarot Deck, the Sword, the Cup, the Diamond, and the Club. You can educate a guess that the "I" is the roman numeral for 1, and the word probably translates to "Magician". You are aware that the energies of the tablet are similar to the energies emanating from the Magician you fought, and given your knowledge in the arcane arts, you recognize that the tablet was probably used as the medium to channel the Magician into being.

 

Given that whoever summoned him went to great lengths to include a creature related to Tarot-logy, you can't help but wonder if there are more similar creatures running around in the island, representing other Tarot cards. Given the peg on its back, it's very possible that the tablet also doubles as a key of some sort. You wonder if the magic within the table points towards its intended keyhole, or...

 

DC15: You further realize that the afro-asiatic word "קוֹסֵם" bears a close familiarity to hebrew script. Combined with its method of summoning and function, you hazzard a guess that the Magician was basically a Golem, which would explain why you didn't feel any infernal powers from within it. While the name inscribed didn't follow the typical pattern of Golem creation of being a Name of God, you are aware that some Golems had other words inscribed to them to act as the "shem", in this case, it's Tarot name in hebrew. The end result is the same.

Going to take a few minutes breather at the hut, providing of course it isn't stuffed full of bats and imps and whatnot.
