She will probably make a beeline for Maria, so that she can keep the
big guys specifically off of her. In fact, we probably want a few
specific people staying by her specifically for that reason.
Oh yeah. VB has sworn his kenesai oath to her and the New Empire. He's
going to keep her in sight.
Just a general suggestion for the whole group, I think we should all
have a decent healing potion or three each if possible, not only can
it keep us going, but we can save important NPCs with them. Plus,
if we can heal ourselves, our cleric can get off some buffing spells
of his own before he has to start patching us up. Also, for anyone
who uses a lot of ranged attacks that require ammo (I'm looking at
you Archer,) think about picking up some special ammo, like silver,
cold iron, adamantine. Just a few of each, but it could help if we
run into something with serious damage resistances. Also, just at a
guess, we might just run into some dragons, see if you can get a
couple arrows that are specifically dragonbane, or some elemental
ammo.
Speaking of dragons, can we pick something up to get them out of the
air? Nothing is worse than the enemies having air support when we
don't. Even something as simple as a large net (maybe made of
chain?) could get them down for a round or two.
VB can turn into a ballista. Not sure if that would be the best use of
that ability, but...
Perhaps create a few barbed spears that have strong ropes attached to
heavy weights that he can shoot at the enemy air support. He can also
go toe-to-toe with the dragons, seeing as how his signature sword is
keyed to dragonbane and has a variable elemental aura on it.
Also, we didn't get into this, but there was some discussion of
trying to do something useful with the firebreathing rat. That will
require DM input, but, I wouldn't mind exploring that if possible,
even one blast from the guy could do some serious damage to general
low level grunts (assuming he actually has a breath weapon...) In
fact, in that vein, any cheap area effect, one shot items people can
think of might be useful for anyone to have? Can we get hold of a
few wands of burning hands or something to help with the masses of
level 1 grunts we probably will have around us?
Thunderstones fired from slings. One shot alchemical items that create
a thunderous cacophony when the strike a hard surface. Using the
slings to give them distance.
