If she were going to be reliant on charity to survive this cycle, then threatening her family is even more of a brainless move.

A bard version of stone to flesh, huh? I don’t recall anybody on the GitP forum or here predicting them doing that, it was mostly V doing it somehow or other. Though some did mention moving Durkon somewhere else before de-stoning.

Isn't that a song of freedom or whatever it's called?

Yep, that 12th level ability!

I didn't actually remember they could do this, but my 3.5 group only briefly had a bard PC of that level.
We do share a laugh about Countersong sometimes, heh.

Interesting that Thirden and especially his apprentice Janna can sing it, since it requires being a 12th-level Bard or higher. Normally you wouldn't expect an apprentice to have what is generally considered a fairly high level.

Yeah and it's weird that they're casting (well it's a spell-like ability) together, which isn't a thing.  I suspect this is a homebrew thing about the apprenticeship, particularly as I'm pretty sure an earlier strip called her musical skill into question.  Which is fine since she's currently an apprentice, just odd if she's supposed to be level 12 herself.

Eh, maybe it's just her assisting him. Wouldn't surprise me if they had some homebrew rules for that.

Not sure what assisting that ability would do, per se, but...why not?

That might work for the song they did for Durkon, but a few panels later they're taking turns singing to unwhammy the dominated counselors with Janna singing without any visible assistance from Thirden.

Given Elan, he probably recommended it because it’s more dramatic/cool that way. Maybe they just decided to give it some extra oomph just in case as the spell used for the stoning is likely a strong one.

I honestly can't decide what's funnier - the Treeslayers mounted on epic beavers and woodpeckers, or the blindfolded, hanging upside-down high priest of Njord being used as a shower.

If they have access to an 18th-level cleric(which I assume they do), couldn't they cast Miracle to duplicate a Magnificent Mansion spell? Or would the mansion being inside a demiplane(similar to a bag of holding, I suppose) count as leaving the Godsmoot and invalidating the vote?

Also, how many people are there? You've got the main high priests, their bodyguards, and the minor high priests and their bodyguards. Create Food and Water can sustain up to sixty people(if at 20th-level), Heroes Feast up to 20.

How's the Frontarch(current High Priest of Hel) handling all this? Vampires need to feed once a day, but it's been a few days and I doubt any of the other attendees would allow her to feed on them willingly.
