At the end of her watch, when her companions have woken from their rest, Seka approaches them with her discovered piece of parchment,
"I found this during the last watch. The text is in Necril, the language of the speaking Undead and the necromancers. I am not wholly versed in it, but I managed to decipher a single line. It reads, When placed upon the pedestal, upon a full moons rise...." The frustration of not being able to read the whole of the text is there on her face. "It also bears the mark of Urgathoa, there, in the corner."
Untrained Know. Religion re Urgathoa: 1d20 ⇒ 10

Ikkit places the evil feeling shard back on the ground and tries to identify it.
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
Kn. Arcana: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
In the morning he shows the rest of his companions his find and shares what ever information he has about the shard. In the morning he remarks, "Curious, looks like this site was used by those behind these undead. But what does it all mean?"
He will take the shard with them in the morning, carrying it in one of his belt pouches.
Jokulmorder Zheng |
As Zheng awakens from his slumber, rejoins the party, in the process of examining their own curious finds.
"All of this looks most complicated. I suppose we'll find out soon enough"
GM_IamZero000 |
You have little clue as to what it could be.
I't's clearly magic in nature, some kind of necromancy. you can tell it's old.
The sun rises, it's a calm peaceful morning. Your all discussing the situation. Do you continue on the trail or talk about your findings? is there anything anyone wishes to do?
Seka of the Silver Wings |
Seka folds the piece of parchment and places inside her pack. She removes a little bit of her rations and her canteen and breaks her fast before she packs up and moves out with the others.
She takes lead once more and with Ikkit holding the map, Seka finds a good trail and moves the party forward. She keeps her eyes open for signs of danger or something noteworthy.
Survival: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 11 + 1 = 18 (+1 circumstance bonus on Survival checks for the map?)
Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21
GM_IamZero000 |
Correct the map gives a small bonus for this circumstance
The group continues moving through the swamps and bogs. following the path you come to a less dense area of the swamp, the ground is a bit firmer than the rest of the swamp, though the terrain is uneven making movement difficult. It's beginning to grow dark once again, but now is no time for rest.
Not to far away you see 4 walking humanoid corpses, clothes rotted much like the rest of it. one of them has a slight darkish glow. They stand guarding an old stone bridge. following that bridge the ruins of a castle
Your in difficult terrain right now due to the uneven terrain I.E. small hills bumps, ect.
Seka of the Silver Wings |
"Aye, let them come to us," she agreed in whisper. She sheathed her sickle and drew her sling. Opening her pouch of bullets, Seka loaded a bullet into the sling, then watched the corpses by the bridge for signs of movement.
Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19 (How far exactly are they from us? Is there any cover via bushes, rocks or anything near us?)
Know. Religion re Humanoid Corpses: 1d20 ⇒ 18
Seka of the Silver Wings |
After a moment's reflection of the corpse-like creatures, Seka turned to her companions and informed them, quietly, "They are Zombies. However, the one with the darkish glow is an Unhallowed Zombie."
Seka of the Silver Wings |
"The Unhallowed is an Undead more corrupted by dark magic. It is protected from and is stronger against good creatures. I know no more than that," she answers briefly in low voice. I don't believe Seka would know anymore about them because she is not trained in Know. Religion or has ranks in Spellcraft, yet.
GM, hope I didn't overstep Seka's knowledge of them here with this answer ...Apologies if I have.

Initative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Ikkit nods his head at Targyn's remarks and replies with a smile, "Time to burn." He quickly reaches in his belt pouch and launches a vial at the abominations.
Bomb: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15 vs touch Ac
Danage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 plus splash damage dc13 for half splash dmg
Ikkit will target the black one and try to get the others in the splash radius.
In addition to magical extracts, alchemists are adept at swiftly mixing various volatile chemicals and infusing them with their magical reserves to create powerful bombs that they can hurl at their enemies. An alchemist can use a number of bombs each day equal to his class level + his Intelligence modifier. Bombs are unstable, and if not used in the round they are created, they degrade and become inert—their method of creation prevents large volumes of explosive material from being created and stored. In order to create a bomb, the alchemist must use a small vial containing an ounce of liquid catalyst—the alchemist can create this liquid catalyst from small amounts of chemicals from an alchemy lab, and these supplies can be readily refilled in the same manner as a spellcaster's component pouch. Most alchemists create a number of catalyst vials at the start of the day equal to the total number of bombs they can create in that day—once created, a catalyst vial remains usable by the alchemist for years.
Drawing the components of, creating, and throwing a bomb requires a standard action that provokes an attack of opportunity. Thrown bombs have a range of 20 feet and use the Throw Splash Weapon special attack. Bombs are considered weapons and can be selected using feats such as Point-Blank Shot and Weapon Focus. On a direct hit, an alchemist's bomb inflicts 1d6 points of fire damage + additional damage equal to the alchemist's Intelligence modifier. The damage of an alchemist's bomb increases by 1d6 points at every odd-numbered alchemist level (this bonus damage is not multiplied on a critical hit or by using feats such as Vital Strike). Splash damage from an alchemist bomb is always equal to the bomb's minimum damage (so if the bomb would deal 2d6+4 points of fire damage on a direct hit, its splash damage would be 6 points of fire damage). Those caught in the splash damage can attempt a Reflex save for half damage. The DC of this save is equal to 10 + 1/2 the alchemist's level + the alchemist's Intelligence modifier.
Alchemists can learn new types of bombs as discoveries (see the Discovery ability) as they level up. An alchemist's bomb, like an extract, becomes inert if used or carried by anyone else.
