I will be AFK for about 24 hours. If Druthane gets a shot. He'll take it. 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 20 ⇒ (18) + 5 + 1 + 20 = 44. DMG: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 3 + 1 = 11

Xathalial fires of his bow with a speed that avoids opening himself to his foe!
Flurry: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 6 + 1 = 231d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 1 = 81d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 1 = 131d8 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

Both of Xathalial's shots riddle the last guard, but he still stands. He continues to make a final stand against the elf.
1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28
Confirming: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
2d4 + 12 ⇒ (4, 1) + 12 = 17
And I'll call it, he has 4 hp left.
After the fight, Guaril Karela rushes in and realizes these events are likely to attract unwanted attention. He arranges you to return to Magnimar. Sheila Heidmarch meets you in Magnimar along with Drandle Dreng and Ambrus Valsin, who have come from Absalom upon hearing of the gravity of Torch’s betrayal. The venture-captains express the Decemvirate’s concern over the information Torch now holds over their heads and that he fooled everyone for so long. With Grandmaster Torch gone, Barek, Gregor, Hawkwen, and Xathalial have no faction leader. Ambrus Valsin approaches you four to ask about your mission. "So what exactly did he have you do?"
Gregor Hawthorne |
Gregor, still unsure of where his loyalty lies, figures the truth may be the easiest way to redemption. "Dorianna's ledgers. He asked that we alter them to protect the identity of his Aspis contacts. We had lists to cross reference with the ledgers. I destroyed my copy...but if pressed I might be able to recalls name or two..."
Druthane |
"Traitorous bastard! We took her alive and he killed her. I heard not what he said. We ought to speak with her corpse. I think he plans on blackmailing the Decemvirate with their identities."
Xathalial |
Xathalial speaks directly to Valsin. "I fear worse than that. While I know nothing of specific magics, is it not possible she enamored his mind or changed places with Torch upon her site of death? I want to trust the man who tried to keep me safe through a mission that was entirely faulty." Xathalial glares a moment at Dreng, remembering his trip to Escandar.
Hawkwren Agricola |
Hawk stands, silently brooding for a while before speaking up to Valsin. He's gone. He fooled us all. There were more than ten names on his list, I don't think she really knew for sure the identities of the Ten, only guesses I'd wager. What now?

Int: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21
ELF-APHANTS NEVER FORGET. Kinda wish that was a Torch take-down crit, though...
DM Amazing Red |
Xathalial is able to recall the names that were substituted. "Those must be the names of possible contacts for Torch. Thank you."
Despite Grandmaster Torch’s treachery, his former faction’s goal comes to fruition in an unexpected way when the Decemvirate reaches out to those who were so badly burned by their leader’s betrayal. Instead of abandoning or condemning you, the masked leaders console the wronged Pathfinders and they expend considerable resources to ensure you receive whatever aid and training you need to recover from the experience.
Roll dayjob checks please if you have one.

Craft (Arrows): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
