Makes sense.

So… she’s gonna try and use the amnesia drug on the Order. Wow. Didn’t see that coming.

Of course, Serini is proceeding on incomplete information-- she doesn’t realize that the Snarl will actually threaten the gods and not Xykon’s enemies.

A high level if not Epic rogue stalking the party invisibly? That’s terrifying. I wonder if we will get any Predator references.

Serini’s to-do list:

  • Take down the Order of the Stick
  • Watch re-release of Avatar in 3D

There’s a third dimension??

She also does not know about Redcloak’s endgame, even though it might not change her mind, as the Goblins had a pretty rough time, as well and might deserve a better chance.

The real problem is that nobody, including us, has complete information.

Including Xykon and Redcloak, too

I’ve said before that the most effective tactic the various good sides could use is to send a message to Xykon, explaining the true nature of the Gates to him.

I strongly suspect that it will be Elan and/or Haley who talk Serini out of her plan of action.

Why doesn’t she also shoot Redcloak and make him forget The Plan (after taking away the red cloak of course). I suppose a forget-me-dart wouldn’t work on Xykon.

One of the colored voices says it was “nice” existing. So she or whomever expects to fail to protect the last gate and the world.

Or Serini’s plan requires minion sacrifice?

It seems that the voice speaking WAS Sereni. At least, the voice was addressed as “boss” and had the same colour speech balloons as Sereni.

Hm, I’d expect V to have cast Protection From Arrows or Stoneskin or whatever on herself or another of the party, so Serini shouldn’t be able to dart them all.

Most such spells only protect against nonmagical weapons. And even if there were something that protected against magical weapons, an epic-level character like Serini should have ways around it.

Could Serini’s potion work on undead?

Pathfinder # Undead Traits

Undead are immune to death effects, Disease, mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, morale effects, phantasms, and patterns), paralysis, Poison, sleep, stun, and any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless). Undead are not subject to ability drain, Energy Drain, or Nonlethal Damage. Undead are immune to Damage or penalties to their physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution), as well as to fatigue and exhaustion effects. Undead are not at risk of death from massive Damage.

So, the mind-affecting effects immunity would likely say NO.
