Re: 1E - TiNH - Part Five: Assaulting the Lotus Dragon Lair
Seeing Logan bending over the trap door, starting to examine it, Celene holds him back for a moment. "Wait Logan, just to guide your hand and perhaps avoid mishaps, let me give you the aid of the goddess." Celene goes through a short prayer, touching Logan briefly on the shoulder, and nods her approval. "Go ahead, she is with you".
OOC: Group, meet Celene, your new level 1/1 enchantress/buffress. After intense negotiations with her goddess (me figuring out her new level), she is now ready to use her new powers and spells. She is geared toward maximum boosting of you, but I am, as you know, new at this, so I may misinterpret rules and spells along the way. Bear with me, and John will surely let me know when I err!
First the simple one: Celene has nearly always prepared Guidance, with which she grants one +1 competence bonus for the person it's cast on (touch range), to one attack roll, saving throw or skill check within one minute, and you choose which roll to use it for. There is some issues regarding duration of the spell vs. duration of the skill use. John will steer us along, I hope.
She'll cast it anytime you want it, as long as she has the opportunity to do so. She can cast it unlimited times per day, lasting until used or for 1 minute (max).
If it's okay with our GM (John, is it ok?), and to save time and bother, i'd suggest you always presume she'll cast it when you want a free +1 bonus, AND she has the opportunity/time to cast it, i.e. is not preoccupied elsewhere, such as in a battle, or when a magic spell would be unwise to flag around. Else, you just ask for her guidance if you need it. You'll just have to suffer her sermons, sorry :-)
She has much more buffing up her sleeve, but she'll take it one at a time.
