Editing Midnight RPG - Chapter 52.5 NOTES (section)

=BILL's Notes=
::  As I recall, the "game" part of things started with Zal summoning forth the succubus.  Kyuad noticed that it wasn't the spell he pretended it to be, and later on Kyuad confronted Zal about that, asking where she was before he summoned her.  Zal made it clear, in his answers to at least four questions on the subject, that she was immaterial before he cast the spell.  Letting it lie, Durgaz pointed out much later that she was actually posing as (Willem? I don't recall the name of the NPC)'s brother back in Firsthold, and that the suspicions that Kyuad had were likely valid, since she had ensorceled the girl into marrying Willis.  It's probably pretty likely that the "ani-magic field" that Zal created was a prestedigitation, and an attempt to deceive Kyuad.
 
::  During the conversation with the succubus we found out that a coatl with a name I don't remember served as the advisor for the succubus queen, and he might know something of the tower.  She talked about a lot else, but I don't remember those details.
 
::  When Zal called the coatl, it appeared as Ardherin (I don't know the spelling because I don't read the book's entry on the guy).  Kyuad did some quick thinking (via about 15 minutes of Bill and Andrew trying to come up with a plan that didn't screw everything up) and changed the plan.  Instead of asking about the tower, Kyuad was going to pretend to be "in charge" and ask about Berial and the conspiracy of outsiders posing as Izrador, in an attempt to throw whatever this was (I had my suspicions that it might actually BE Ardherin because of the magical aura) off of our true intent.  Mainly the reason for this is that Zal clearly encountered an "I can't control it!" moment, so damage control had to be used.
 
::  Incidentally, wow is Adam ever jumpy.  No sudden moves around that guy.
 
::  When all of that was over, we learned that Ardherin wasn't really very aware of the outsider conspiracy, and the coatl was willing to deal with us in exchange for our help in rescuing his mistress.  We (Kyuad at least) guessed that this was genuine because it wasn't mentioned until Durgaz said Ardherin had left.  Andrew made it clear after the fact that Durgaz had used locate person to determine Ardherin's wherabouts.
 
::  Another thing that we talked about at length was Zal's vulnerability.  You arrived on silver, and there was a possibility you wanted to re-roll it since Adam blurted it out.  Again, let us believe that you aren't going to please.  The being unsure makes it easier to firewall.
 
::  I'll answer any question you have.  I know I skipped some things that don't come to mind, and there are other details you might be after that I'm not recognizing the importance of, so ask away.
