Alzar wants to bring down that Force Field, but he doubts his 3rd level Dispel Magic is up to the trick. Alzar instead readies and casts the 9th level uber-Dispel Mordenkainen’s Disjunction and drops it.


The Pasha, Greater Djinni -


AC - 6; HD 15, 100 hp, AT 2 fists 3d10 each hit; THACo 5; Has magical items on him too.

Alzar has time to get off one spell as the Pasha flies at him.

He casts Major Globe of Invulnerability to protect him from spells of 7th level or fewer.

Battle begins.

3 vs 6, The Pasha smashes, and knows about the Displacement already seeing the earlier battle, and needs a 9 to smash Alzar and hits twice for 15 and 13 damage. Alzar’s +5 axe needs a 9 as well to smash, and he this once for 18 damage and then misses with the Barrier as well. The vampires need 19 to hit. They get two attacks and both miss as well.

52/79


Pasha - 82/100


Alzar uses his Ring of Quick Action to guarantee winning initiative this round. He rolls a 10, a 6, and a 15. Then a 6 - 19 damage, and 4 - 13 damage - 32 from his shield and axe. One vampire hits once for 7 damage and no energy drain - foe is immune.

Pasha - 43/100

Pasha reaches out and punches Alzar and tosses a 17 and a 4. Hits for…..2+4+7 - 13 damage.

40/79

8 vs 5. Lost init.

The Pasha punches and gets 13 and 8. Hits once for 4+6+5 damage - 15.

26/79

Alzar hews at the great djinni. He tosses a 1, 13, and 10 for 15 damage. One vamp hits one for another 7 damage.


21/100


The Pasha calls is and surrenders. He has been subdued.


Alzar knows what that means to one of the genie kind.

He calls off the vampires. He uses his Genie Lore proficiency to talk to the Pasha with knowledge. He’s a bit surprised, he didn’t realize that such knowledge was common here. But Alzar may not be common here either. He will do a favor for Alzar. He can do and conquer nearby territories to give them to Alzar. He can go fight some of Alzar’s enemies for him and dispatch them…Hmmm…no?

Alzar points out that a wish could do that but a lot more.


He tries a few more times but quickly realizes that Alzar’s won’t be swayed by simple tasks and offers the Wish. After all, it can smell wishes on Alzar, he’s cast them before!

Actually, he has. He has cast wishes before. That’s true. He knows that a properly worded Wish can have a powerful impact on him. He gets it.

The Djinni is preparing for the wish spell, and Alzar reminds him that he has neither agreed to the wish, not is he inclined to use it. Fine! The Djinni tries and tries but to no avail. What does Alzar want then?
