Hmm... I wanted Ammon to die. Killing him without even entering combat then wind walking away was really clever! ^^


You avoid all the Gith patrols and enter the mouth of the moon sized fetus. The place become darker and darker until you no longer see a thing (even with magical light), for some reasons your steps are very loudly, even Garren's. Suddenly the switch is on but only on yourself brighting, you can clearly see yourself but everything else is total black, you (everyone) is alone in the middle of some impenetrable darkness.

Sun:

You start hearing somebody crying for help, a woman. 20 ft ahead of you appears a blurry man dressed in red is pressing with his foot an equally blurry woman. The man turn and see you.

Garren:
20 ft ahead of you appears a pretty hafling -hey babe, do you want to have some fun? - She seems and sounds familiar somehow.

Auron:
Leaning against a wall? (you can't see, is dark) you See Amman bleeding out, he is breathing heavily.

Does my having Darkvision (60 ft.) and Blindsense (30 ft.) change anything?

Nicos, check and un-check Lemmy from the Characters list, see if that helps.


no. EDIT: The darkvision part.

I too have Darkvision (60ft.) and Blindsense (30ft.), so there is that... Also, did our group split up?

@Auron, you don't see them anymore

Sun:
He remain silent and relaxed, but with a quick movement a curved and serrated blade appears in his hand.

So we're going with "The Red Mantis Assassins exist in Forgotten Realms"? Neat.

Does my Blindsense work on him? It only works on things with minds, so if it's an illusion or something I wouldn't be able to feel its presence.


You don't sense him


Male Human HP: 114/119| AC: 26, FF: 17, Touch 19 20% MISS CHANCE|CMD: 40 (43 Grapple, 42 Trip, 41 Bull Rush)| Fort +15, Ref +16, Will +13| Perception +24, Sense Motive +26; Darkvision, Blindsense 30 ft.

Sun relaxes a little, but stays on his guard and approaches the apparition.

"I recognize you now. You're supposed to be the man that killed my family?"

"Well, if you're really here...finish the job, then." Sun makes a "Bring it on" gesture at the Mantis.

"This can't be right..."

Perception: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (6) + 22 = 28
Will: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (17) + 18 = 35

Campaign is still not showing up here...


Auron see exactly what was described.


@ Sun

The Darkness go away and you are now in your old house, standing in a corner. The assassin lift your mother by the hairs and in that moment young sun appear to discover the situation.

You start remembering something you apparently have forgotten for years. That dreadful night you didn't saw just the crimson assassin, there was someone else in the corner cloaked by shadows, a bald tanned athletic man. Young Sun start attacking the assassin.

@ Garren

Your mind feels numb when you try to remember who the girl is. But then the darkness disappear and you are in the halls of some kind of mansion in the night. That seem quite familiar too.

No time to talk, they discovered us!- She start running away -What are you doing? run or they will catch you!

; Trap Spotter, Perception +20(26 vs Traps), Sense Motive +6

"Me? Run? Garren Wraithblade? Emeraldeyes? The Thief who was never caught? Very well, I'll humor you."

Garren breaks into a run.


Male Human HP: 114/119| AC: 26, FF: 17, Touch 19 20% MISS CHANCE|CMD: 40 (43 Grapple, 42 Trip, 41 Bull Rush)| Fort +15, Ref +16, Will +13| Perception +24, Sense Motive +26; Darkvision, Blindsense 30 ft.

Sun's hands ball into fists as he watches his younger self attack.

"If the idea is to piss me off, IT'S WORKING!" he shouts at the sky, angry at the reminder of how weak he was before.

It takes him a moment to focus again, and notice the man in the shadows.

"Now, who is that? I don't remember him." he mutters.

Sun moves closer to get a better look at the man.


@Sun
There is nothing else there. Just your mother, young Sun, the Assassin, and you. You are also remembering something else no, something that you have forgotten all this years too. The bald man Screamed something, something about getting pissed off.

You mother start running and the crimson assassin follows her and stab her.

@ Garren

Running was probably a good idea because two sleek dark dragons comes roaring angrily from a room, shattering its door in the process. Their fiery embers eyes lit with hate. They start chasing you.

The scene become even more familiar, the house, the chase, the lady, but everything seems nebulous when you try to remenber it more clearly.


Male Human HP: 114/119| AC: 26, FF: 17, Touch 19 20% MISS CHANCE|CMD: 40 (43 Grapple, 42 Trip, 41 Bull Rush)| Fort +15, Ref +16, Will +13| Perception +24, Sense Motive +26; Darkvision, Blindsense 30 ft.

Ah. Bit of a descriptional misfire then. Sun Xiao is not bald, he actually has long hair. Blonde, in a ponytail. I was sure I had posted that at some point. There just wasn't really a picture that fit.

Sun begins to doubt, after a moment, what's really going on.

Maybe I'm really here? And was all along? Maybe I can change how the scene plays out.

He rushes forward, and sweeps a kick at the assassin.

1d20 + 24 ⇒ (8) + 24 = 32

Damage: 2d8 + 34 ⇒ (6, 3) + 34 = 43


Male Garuda-blooded Aasimar Cleric 13 - HP 93/120; AC 26(tch 17, ff 19); CMD 29; Blur (20% Miss Chance); Fort +16, Ref +12, Will +18; Darkvision, Blindsense (30ft), Perception +22, Sense Motive +24; Initiative +6

Auron continues to observe his surroundings...

Kn(Arcana/Planes/Religion): 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (16) + 20 = 36 (I don't know which one applies, if any... They all have the same bonus, and technically it's just a single roll, I just don't know which one)

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (10) + 21 = 31


@ Sun

Seriously? blond with ponytail, that is not the mental image I had of Sun like at all
Snake style: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (15) + 27 = 42
Snake FAng: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (3) + 25 = 281d3 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 21
If the above hit then
Snake FAng: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (16) + 25 = 411d3 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 20 = 23

The assassin evades Sun attack at the last moment and retaliate with his own flurry of kicks.

@ Auron

Not sure what to tell. You are not sure if someone is playing with your mind, but it seems more likely that someone is playing with the environment, making this at least somewhat real.

Amman:What are you waiting to finish this


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

He can't hit with the second one. It takes an Immediate to use Snake Style for AC, and another Immediate to do the "hit 'em again if Snake Fang connects". Also, don't forget my 20% miss chance.


Really? so the second attack from snake fang never triggers?. EDIT: Nevermind, it does if the miss is not form the sense motive but from missing hte AC

Miss chance (<80 is a hit): 1d100 ⇒ 17

Also, yeah. Like a martial artist ponytail. A kung fu braid. Whatever. Like this but blonde, and a bit more hair in front.

Sun grunts as the man's foot connects with his midsection, then smiles.

"So I CAN touch you."

Sun does the one thing he's good at: Kicking ass.

Martial Flexibility as a Swift action to snag Lunge and Dazing Fist.

Sun steps back and strikes from a distance, outside the easy reach of the man's retaliatory attacks.

Knockout: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (7) + 20 = 27
Damage: 2d8 + 34 ⇒ (8, 6) + 34 = 48
Stunning Fist: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (15) + 20 = 35
Damage: 2d8 + 30 ⇒ (3, 8) + 30 = 41
Dazing Fist: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 15 = 20
Damage: 2d8 + 30 ⇒ (7, 2) + 30 = 39
Attack 4: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 15 = 20
Damage: 2d8 + 30 ⇒ (8, 4) + 30 = 42
Attack 5: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21
Damage: 2d8 + 30 ⇒ (6, 2) + 30 = 38

The Stunning Fist DC is DC 18, and so is the Dazing Fist, and the Knockout blow is DC 25. All Fort.


The man show an impressive defense, evading and blocking acrobatically most of Sun's attacks except one that hit him hard in the rib.

Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (17) + 16 = 33

Rynjin, leave an space between the rolls, like attack1/damage 1/space/attack2/damage2/space/attack3...All them grouped together make them hard to read

The Assassin quickly change his style, he get close to you with a complex movement of feet and start launching a series of attacks with circular movements

sabre: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (16) + 22 = 381d8 + 20 ⇒ (5) + 20 = 251d100 ⇒ 4 -hit

Unarmed: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (18) + 22 = 401d3 + 20 ⇒ (2) + 20 = 221d100 ⇒ 95 * With stunning fist DC 19 -Miss

Sabre: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (1) + 17 = 181d8 + 20 ⇒ (8) + 20 = 281d100 ⇒ 88 -Miss

Snake fang: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (12) + 24 = 361d3 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 211d100 ⇒ 61 -hit

He then returns to his original fighting stance.

In the middle of the fight you start remembering how after the Assassin stabbed your mother, you saw, in your semi-unconscious state, how the other man attacked him and the two started a display of martial arts.


Male Human HP: 114/119| AC: 26, FF: 17, Touch 19 20% MISS CHANCE|CMD: 40 (43 Grapple, 42 Trip, 41 Bull Rush)| Fort +15, Ref +16, Will +13| Perception +24, Sense Motive +26; Darkvision, Blindsense 30 ft.

Really hoping this is some elaborate illusion and I'm not writing myself into my own memories.

"You're good." Sun begrudgingly notes, bleeding from several places.

I don't feel as bad about losing to this guy any more. He was further out of my league than I'd always thought.

Sun thinks as he retaliates against the missed attacks with a knee-elbow strike-headbutt combo.

Snake Fang 1: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (8) + 22 = 30
Damage: 2d8 + 30 ⇒ (1, 2) + 30 = 33

Snake Fang 2: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (20) + 22 = 42
Damage: 2d8 + 30 ⇒ (6, 1) + 30 = 37

Immediate Attack: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (12) + 22 = 34
Damage: 2d8 + 30 ⇒ (5, 7) + 30 = 42

Snake Fang 2 Confirm: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (13) + 22 = 35
Damage: 2d8 + 30 ⇒ (7, 8) + 30 = 45

Edit: Oh, durr. Then it's my turn again.

Sun steps back again and Flurries.

Stunning Fist: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (2) + 20 = 22
Dazing Fist: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 20 = 23
Attack 3: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (19) + 15 = 34
Attack 4: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 19
Attack 5: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11

Wow dice please.

Sun lashes out with various kicks and punches from a distance, but only one seems to connect.

Damage: 2d8 + 34 ⇒ (4, 7) + 34 = 45


*Forget the last Snake fang, sun was out of his reach.
Snake style: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (7) + 27 = 34
Snake FAng: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (7) + 24 = 311d3 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 21

*Assuming Sun was not killed by that last attack*

After a brutal exchange of hits, blcks and misses, Sun can strike fiercely with his elbow the man throat and crush it, the crimson assassin die suffocated...exactly as he remember happened when he was a child.

We're done here, lets wait for the others


Male Human HP: 114/119| AC: 26, FF: 17, Touch 19 20% MISS CHANCE|CMD: 40 (43 Grapple, 42 Trip, 41 Bull Rush)| Fort +15, Ref +16, Will +13| Perception +24, Sense Motive +26; Darkvision, Blindsense 30 ft.

I should be out of reach of that Snake Fang too. I've been 5 ft. stepping back and Lungeing.

Sun breathes heavily and lowers his guard.

"I suppose this was revenge. Too much to hope that I got here in time to save her?" he says, looking over his mother's corpse.


His snake fang was in response to a snake fang, so yes it hit

Thinking about it, Sun remember how he always thought that if the Men had acted sooner, his mother would have survived.

Auron ignores "Amman" and starts walking towards the strongest source of magic he can detect... Failing that, he follows the direction he and his friends were going before being interrupted.

Garren continues to flee.

Ugh. My head feels like Im hammered. I hope Auron gets us out of this or something comes up.

"Got a plan miss?"


@ Auron

Amman stand up, draw a potion and drink it, some of his wounds heal.-Perhaps you are the real Luckstrider - He say with his deep voice. the blackness go away and you are now in a small city, you recognize it as Riatavin, the city where tandall died. You also recognize that you are just a block away from Tandall's house, and you see how a couple of daemons fly to that home

@ Garren

A third dragon appears in the front and attack the woman, this is just too much familiar...Garren, feeling somewhat less numb, start remembering something, one of his first "jobs", it was in a mansion in outside of Baldur's gate...yes, she was your partner but instead of dragons there were normal guards...but you can't remember at the moment how the night ended.

Are there people on the street? Can I sense them with my Blind-sight that detects minds?


I forget to mention it was at night, so no people no the street. There is Amman in between you and the house, too far from your blind sight unless you approach him


Male Garuda-blooded Aasimar Cleric 13 - HP 93/120; AC 26(tch 17, ff 19); CMD 29; Blur (20% Miss Chance); Fort +16, Ref +12, Will +18; Darkvision, Blindsense (30ft), Perception +22, Sense Motive +24; Initiative +6

Auron rolls his eyes and speaks with a bored tone in his voice...

"Whatever this is... Whoever is doing it... I'm not interested in tricks of smoke and mirrors. I'm a disciple of Oghma, it's truth and knowledge that I seek, not some false pretense of reality. Find another subject for your attempts at manipulation... I have more important things to do."

Auron keeps moving towards the same direction as before...


That only leave us with Garren

Ok. In the meantime Auron see Amman smile and go to Tandall's house while almost at the same time all goes to blackness again.

"Ugh. Why does it remind me of things like this..." Garren mutters under his breath as he dives into a roll and attempts to bypass the shadowy dragon, leaving the woman to her fate.

I'm not proud of the people I've had to leave behind damn it! But there's no sense in dying here with them!

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 29 ⇒ (5) + 29 = 34

Garren avoid the dragons, and at the same time he remembers her now [as whatever (or whoever) that was messing with his mind is no more]. She is a friend and a source of information. That mansion was Garren first real "job", and it ended with the two of yous caping from the guards.

I will make the post for the whole group later


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

So what happened next?


The healthy garren and Auron and the wounded Sun reunite. Again, all is darkness with the exception the three of you who are clearly visible.

This time, however, you sense that you are not alone, someone or something is there too.
