Togue hit with both of his shots
bri I don't see anything limited it's reflex save, but I did not look too it is also in a cage that is bigger than it's body so there is moving room. that being stated I'll give it a -2 on the reflex save.
chimera refex: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 7 - 2 = 6
The beast takes the full damage form the bolt and screeches in fury, it's six eyes peer at it's enemy.
the remaining smugglers get the door open to the chimera.
handle animal: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27
The beast looks briefly at it's meal source and then launches itself in the air, spreading it leathery wings and catching a thermal as it rises up into the air, before it starts to close the gap between it's self and the sloop.

Isn't it Round 4?
Round 4
Inspire Courage Active: +2 attack/damage/save vs fear and charm
Astrianna flinches as the flash and crackle of lightning fills the air, striking the chimera. When the beast is released from the cage and takes flight, she echos Chell's words. "Piss! If anyone has fire protection magic, now is the time to use it!"
She smoothly knocks an arrow into her suddenly ironic composite longbow Chimera, and tracks the flying beast in the air. The bard looses with a laugh "By Shelyn what a story this will be!"
After firing she drops to the deck of the ship and takes cover, knowing that either arrows or flames are about to assault them.
Free Action: Maintain Inspire Courage (13/16)
Standard Action: Fire longbow at Chimera. Just out of point-blank range, grrr.
Longbow attack, inspired: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 6 + 2 = 25
Longbow damage: 1d8 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 2 = 4 My damage dice are always crap for some reason.
Move Action: Become prone, +4 AC against ranged attacks.

Round 4
Abandoning the sling and any attempt at hitting the archers, Chell prepares and prays that her spell works a little differently than intended. Even though it considered eating the smugglers, Embrianna's bolt likely pissed it off. And if it breathed fire on the ship then the whole thing could go up in flames.
Readied action to cast Wind Wall in front of the Chimera if it uses it breadth weapon. It should deflect the fires upward, I hope.
Embrianna |
Ok, sometimes it goes by so fast I get confuzzled.
Bri casts a Ray of Enfeeblement at the Chimera before it can reach her group to attack it.
Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24
Str penalty: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Do rays crit?
Chell Silves |
Holy Shit! Magic should be able to crit and if it does then you could potentially drop it and cause it to drown. That would be epic. Roll it again! Roll it again!
Astrianna Sparacello |
As badass as that would be, ray and touch attacks can only produce a critical threat if they deal damage.
If a ray spell deals damage, you can score a critical hit just as if it were a weapon. A ray spell threatens a critical hit on a natural roll of 20 and deals double damage on a successful critical hit.
Emphasis mine. Also-
Ray of Enfeeblement- The subject's Strength score cannot drop below 1. A successful Fortitude save reduces this penalty by half.

Astrianna Sparacello |
It's the breath weapon I'm worried about. Given the description of Wind Wall, Chell's spell will hopefully work and buy us time to plug the thing with enough arrows that we're not worth the effort.

Astri's arrow flies and hits the chimera it lets aoubt another screech.

Thwack the next arrow hits the witch.
Cireladwen |
The elf pauses abruptly, twitching her ears in the direction of the sound. She clicks her tongue against her teeth and switches direction, sprinting towards the noises in the distance. This is an opportunity to get more exercise, if nothing else, and should prove more interesting then chasing an errant grazing beast.
Sprinting towards the battle, sir!
Chell Silves |
Readied actions come before the action readied against. If it breathes fire, poison, frost(I don't think we registered what color dragon) I use Wind Wall in front of it. If it does not I do nothing and end up right before it in initiative.
baldwin the merciful |
Read #10 in the Game Comments. I don't ready actions as that casues me to have to shuffle the initiative order. there's enough for GM to track already. What I do is permit you to hold you action until you want to use it.
I mentioned to the folks that succeeded on the know arcane the color relation to it's breath weapon. It's a red head.

RD 2: Smugglers handling Chimera
Shouts cry out for the barge with the large cage on it, "INTRUDERS INTRUDERS
They each take a position that permits them to use the cage as partial coverage. The cage itself has three sides that appear to be some sort of iron, while the norther side are bars.
random attack: 2d7 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4
Both shots are at Jenkie,
bow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26;damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
bow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25;damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
Each arrow hits with precision.
Chell Silves |
I probably read that at some point but forgot. Got it now thought.
Chell prepares herself for a confrontation with the pissed off chimera. Any moment now it was going to try and char them to ash. Any moment now. Any...Where is it going. The young priestess watches as three-headed beast flies towards them then...flies away? Chell is too stunned by the maneuver to do anything more than watch. "Is it...Is it leaving?" she asks of no one in particular.

perception for cireladwen: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
You see a three headed flying creature land in the tree line on the other side of a cove that is just beyond a hillock. After this round you have one more round to reach the bluff overlooking the cove. the beast is across the way from where you will are, so you are not in immediate danger.

Round 5
Astrianna is taking cover on the floor of the boat, waiting for the flames as she continues her war chant. Surprisingly difficult to do.
Nothing happens after several second, and when she hears Chell the bard jerks her head up and scrambles back into a standing position. Emerald eyes peer upward and sees the chimera heading for the trees above the cliffs.
Sucking air into her lungs she shouts loudly in Draconic towards the Chimera- to the uneducated it would sound like she was casting a really loud, angry spell.
After her message is sent she rapidly knocks another arrow and turns, coordinating her shot with Torgue.
She then shouts in common this time, displaying her impressive lung power from years of vocal training.
"YOUR PET WON'T SAVE YOU. LAY DOWN YOUR WEAPONS AND YOU'll LIVE TO SEE THE NEXT SUNSET!"

Cireladwen |
Whoop!
Cireladwen stares in awe as she approaches the bluff, feet moving almost on their own. She can't help but be in awe of the distant monstrosity.
"Beautiful..." she murmurs, unaware of just what the chimera is.
Still running, then. :3
Edit:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 perception.

Round 5
Percpetion: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
"I know!" Chell cries in...annoyance? Though the others are taking wounds it seems more prudent to stop the source. Or at least a source. The Chimera is gone and the ones on the cliff are just about dead so the priestess focuses on the tiny floating barge. With cover those men were going to be hard to hit. As her exclamation at leaves her lips a prayer follows it. This one causes a fog to pour forth from her mouth and swirl around her arm before shooting off towards the tiny barge. The little raft is engulfed in fog preventing anyone from seeing in...or out.
Cast Fog Cloud around A9. Then loud a stone in the sling, not sure if it is a move action or not. Then drop prone as astrianna did for +4 against ranged attacks.
Edit: This is under the assumption Astrianna doesn't talk them down. Small chance but still possible.

Astri and Sorrin's arrows find the smuggler on the cliff.

Smugglers/chimera

As you peer down into the cove you see a small sloop with 7 people move at quarter sail into a cove. The cove has a barge moored in the middle, a small cargo galley, and beachfront. You can see movement on the galley and on the beach. There are four men on the deck and four medium sized cages that they are fumbling at opening. There is also a man in the crows nest. There is 80 feet between you and the water below and 30 feet between you and the crows nest. As you look down a bright sea fog surrounds the barge.
do you have rope if you did not buy it earlier I will assume that you did.
Chell the barge is at K/L 8/9. the small galley is at F: 10-13. You mention at A:9, I jsut want to double check.
baldwin the merciful |
All but Cir:
You see some movement on the small galley. there is a lookout man in the crows nest but there are at least two, possibly more men on the deck, and you also see at least one cage on the foredeck.
You see a sandy beach you see at least three other people on the beach scrambling.
Chell Silves |
Whatever the chimera came from. Want to take them out of the fight unless they want to swim.
Sorrin I am drawing a blank on what you are talking about.
