I'm assuming you are all waiting for the ogres..so

The Larger ogres drive their smaller brethren ahead off them as they charge.

Did any of the tiger's attacks hit?


The tiger takes down the first ogre in line but now blocks the passageway for anyone else. in response two ogres beat on it. as the larger ones egg them on.

Club 11d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24 Damage 2d8 + 7 ⇒ (5, 5) + 7 = 17 12 after DR

Club 21d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Is an updated map possible with these new Ogres?


I'll try and get one up later today.

Completly blocked or would a spell like Magic missile still be able to get though?


Spells can still get LoS as can missile weapons.


Female Halfling lvl 10 sorceror (Arcane)

Naria launches a magic missile down the hall at the most injured looking Ogre

Magic missile damage

5d4 + 5 ⇒ (1, 4, 2, 4, 1) + 5 = 17

Arrows continue to fly from the half-elf's bow as he takes another few steps forward.

Shortbow 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 12 + 1 = 23.... damage 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Two more arrows fly in quick succession.

Shortbow 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 7 + 1 = 18.... damage 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Hasted attack Shortbow 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 12 + 1 = 18.... damage 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

He steps forward (5') and continues to reload.

target one of the smaller ogres .


I think we are getting bogged down here....so...

Naria and Romon kill an Ogre between them, the Tiger takes down the last small Ogre.The two larger ogres slaughter the tiger but run into the problem of having to exit the cave one at a time against all off you and are cut down with only minor injuries to the party.

Now the boring bit is finished feel free to post


Male Human Binder 11 |Init +7 |HP 68/102 |AC 19 FF 16 T 13| CMD +8 | F+10 R+10 W+9 Percep +8

When it is clear that the threat is over, Inikai resumes his normal appearance. For a brief moment he looks at the corpses of the enemies and wishes they would just disappear when slain the way his summoned beast did.

He turns to Marak and asks "Will you have to give some funerary rites to them after this is all done?"


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

Wasn't boring, but most of us weren't doing anything until the Ogres exited the tunnel/cave exit, and they weren't exiting, so...anyhoo

Sated, at least temporarily, by the taking down of this last pack of wolfkillers, Ali once again flows to Gnome and conjures her magics to cure the minor wounds of her friends.

Flowing back to wolf form, once the pack is ready, she and Lunas lope ahead eagerly. Hunting the hunters, their noses in the air and sharp senses tasked to finsing the next batch of prey to take down, the two big wolves glide deeper into the mountainside fortress.


He's got pointed ears, like Spock. // AC 17, FF 14, T 15 // HP 68/73 // F,R,W 7,11,4 // Percept 14 + // Init +4

"That's going to be one giant funerary right," Romon mutters as he glides by. He scoops his ioun torch off the floor and trots after the wolves.


There are three exits from the junction that the original 4 Ogres were guarding.East West and South.

The Scent here is overpoweringly Ogre so many Ogres that they obscure any other scents that might be present. This place is obviously old and long occupied.

Heading east into the area that the majority off the ogres came from you find a huge cavern littered with sleeping pallets,many more than the ogres you have accounted for and a large number of what seem to be mine tunnels running off at various angles into the darkness.


Male Human Binder 11 |Init +7 |HP 68/102 |AC 19 FF 16 T 13| CMD +8 | F+10 R+10 W+9 Percep +8

Are the mine tunnels sized for ogres?

"It looks like our enemies here are legion."

"I did not think ogres mined. Maybe they took this place from a more industrious race. Or perhaps someone else is putting them to work."


Yes the tunnels are ogre scale


He's got pointed ears, like Spock. // AC 17, FF 14, T 15 // HP 68/73 // F,R,W 7,11,4 // Percept 14 + // Init +4

Romon looks at the beds, then at the arrows in his quiver. He starts counting bunks, until he gets to 14. Good thing Muchorak, Randi, and Ali can cut through these guys like a sharp knife through fresh cheese.

"Any of you casters have something to bring the house down on those tunnels?"


Female Halfling lvl 10 sorceror (Arcane)

"Nothing that would be able to do it quickly."


He's got pointed ears, like Spock. // AC 17, FF 14, T 15 // HP 68/73 // F,R,W 7,11,4 // Percept 14 + // Init +4

"Pity."


Male Human Ranger 10// AC 19 (20 w/2 weap), FF 16, T 15 // HP 109/109 // Percept +14 (+18 Forests/+16 Mtns) // Init +3 (+7 Forests/+5 Mtns)

"We need to search this place in detail." The Ranger looks around, "The giant was most likely leading them, perhaps he has some maps or more details from whomever sent him here."


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

Taking her que from packleader Big Bear, AliWolf starts sniffing around for the most recent, and strongest, scent of Giant.


Female Elf Paladin (Swift Justice) 10 | AC26/T19/FF18 CMD30 HP86/86 F+10/R+11/W+10 Per+15 (Low Light) Init +7

"If Zis is a mineworking, ze ogres 'ere will not be a major threat, remember ze ones on ze dam? Ze leaders will be elsewhere, let us try ze other side passages first - I do not want to be trapped 'ere as we trapped ze ogres a moment ago."


The strongest scent of Giant is coming from the corpse. Like most of his kind he is dressed in uncured furs and they stink too.He has the bag normally associated with his kind.

The Bag leans against a pile of wolf pelts [6 wolf pelts; 10 gp each] next to a portable anvil [40 gp]. In the sack you find four blue velvet pillows embroidered with similar seascapes in gold thread [4 pillows, 30 gp each], a tall silver vase decorated with abstract lines and squares [vase, 30 gp], and a piece of cloth woven of gold, sized to cover a six-person table [gold cloth, 250 gp]. A large leather wallet [3 gp] holds dried meat [5 pounds; 3 gp], dried apples [5 pounds, 1 gp] and roasted walnuts [10 pounds; 1 gp]. Another pouch contains six ivory combs [10 gp each], a wooden mirror [10 gp], a silver mirror with small garnets around the edge [600 gp], and a jeweled tiara [silver with 25 small pieces of amber; 1,300 gp]. A narrow leather box lies atop the pile of pelts and holds five golden rings and various sizes of files, picks, tweezers and the like [masterworks thieves’ tools; 100 gp]. Two rings are plain gold [20 gp each], one has elaborate knotwork over all its surfaces [45 gp], one has a large black pearl [550 gp] and the last is set with two small opals [1,100 gp]. At the bottom of the sack you find a silver ladle [2 gp], a large leather bucket [2 sp], a massive silver brooch with four colors of agate [180 gp], a large warhammer [2 gp], two handaxes [6 gp each] and numerous coins [398gp, 723 sp, 802 cp]. [Total 4,987.52 gp]

All the cloth items are a bit grubby and stained but simple cleaning will be enough to restore their full worth.

The west passage from the guard point splits to go northwest and southwest. The southern exit shows a dim flickering light on it's walls


He's got pointed ears, like Spock. // AC 17, FF 14, T 15 // HP 68/73 // F,R,W 7,11,4 // Percept 14 + // Init +4

Although he is without high hopes, Romon skips merrily over to the giant's bag. His eyes open wide as he views the contents. This was an enterprising fellow. Looks like he knows the back way into the boudoir as it were. Then he finds the tool and his mood sombers. Brother, you must have been pretty good to score all that out here. Too bad you were born to the wrong gang. Then the half-elf frowns.

"Hey guys. The slither sisters might still be around. Why else would he have scored the fem primpers?"


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

The two wolves growl deeply, clearly furious at the sight and scent of the wolf pelts. Lunas lowers his head and takes a step towards the bag and the rogue, making it clear to the rogue that taking the furs would cost much] more than they are worth.

AliWolf glances at Lunas, but trusts her den brother to do the right thing. She then moves over to the two passageways, using her nose and the rest of her senses to try and determine which passageway might have had the least amount of recent traffic. If able to determine, she returns to the passage and makes it clear to the others that it is the one she wishes to head down.


Ali

Spoiler:
The scents here are strange..to the south the smell like fey..but with a hint of something rotten . To the south west you get a whiff of decay and to the northwest a mineral like smell you have never come across before


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

Just as a note, Ali only has scent when in wolf form, not dire wolf form, so she freely switches back and forth when her nose is needed.

As the small wolf begins to nose around, she begins to clearly pick up several scents that either intrigue or confuse her. After spending several moments sniffing back and forth, she finally flows to Gnome form.
"Ali..Ali not so sure... She think dead no dead fairy queen that way" she points towards the South "Smell like fey, but bad bad, like food no good to eat no more. That way" this time she points South West "Smell like... smell like things dying, or be dead dead for long time. That way" now pointing North West "Ali smell...Ali no know what this smell be. Smell like rocks, a little bit?"

After some thought she nods and points North West "Ali think maybe we go this way first, yes yes." although she does not seem entirely sure. Whenever the direction is decided upon, she flows back to wolf form and heads down the passageway, her nose leading the way.


Male Human Binder 11 |Init +7 |HP 68/102 |AC 19 FF 16 T 13| CMD +8 | F+10 R+10 W+9 Percep +8

The prospect of more walking dead dampens Inikai's spirit even further than the idea of confronting more ogres. With a sigh he readies himself for whatever they may encounter next.

....

"Niiiiice doggie. Niiiice." Romon smiles in what he hopes is a friendly manner, then the smile broadens as he remembers how Cearnis used to carry drugged meat whenever he thought he might run into a dog.

He shrugs his haversack off one shoulder. One hand hovers near his best dagger, while the other slides into his bag for a bit of meat, or maybe a tanglefoot bag. What!? I just wanted Lunas to stay here where it's safe. The hand dutifully pulls free of the bag with a bit of dried meat which the rogue tosses adroitly toward the wolf's mouth. "Here, weregild for a were-friend."


If no-one has any other suggestions I'll take it you go with Ali's.


Male Human Binder 11 |Init +7 |HP 68/102 |AC 19 FF 16 T 13| CMD +8 | F+10 R+10 W+9 Percep +8

That sounds good to me.

Ditto


Going North West then...

This gigantic chamber extends into darkness to the east, sloping upward between two wide ledges on which loom statues with angular faces, stern brows, and strong jawlines. Above, the ceiling opens to the slate gray sky above. The ramp leads up in tiers, finally coming to an end before an immense stone throne.

On the throne sits a mighty gray skinned giant with another member of his kind standing guard. Before the throne stand the familiar forms of Lucretia and Xanesha in their natural forms.

The Giant on the throne waves negligently towards you.."Dispose of these insects" his voice rumbles and the Lamiae and Guard begin to move.


Round 1
Ali 26
Inakai 25
Esteriande 23
Muchorak 21
Naria 20+
Marak 20
Xanesha 19

Inikai inhales deeply then belches forth a cloud of noxious green gas. He tries to envelope as many foes as he can.

Foul Breath:

Spoiler:
Fort Save and Ref Saves DC 20
Foul Breath: As a standard action the binder can give off a breath of foul, green gas. This gas stinks of rotting meat and vegetation. The breath is a 30-foot cone of gas with two effects. All creatures caught in the area of the cone take 1d6 points of acid damage per two effective binder levels up to 5d6 at 10th level. Victims are allowed a Reflex save for half damage. All creatures with a constitution score that breathe must make a Fortitude save or be nauseated for 1d4+1 rounds. This power can be used once every five rounds.


Starting positions..perhaps Inikai wants to rethink that...


Male Human Binder 11 |Init +7 |HP 68/102 |AC 19 FF 16 T 13| CMD +8 | F+10 R+10 W+9 Percep +8

I see now that would be a bad idea.

Quickly, Inikai scans the foes and makes a rushed decision. His skin quivers and takes on its gray, "inverted" appearance and his tongue, now black and horribly elongated drops, from his mouth to nearly his collar before returning with a vile slurp.

In response to his tongue, a tentacle bursts from the ground near Lucretia and flails wildly at the snake-woman but to no effect.

Evard's Black Tentacle, single tentacle only
Grapple Attack
1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16
I fumbled with a tentacle. How many people get to say that?

Damage
1d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
+5 points cold damage

If it hits
1d100 ⇒ 87


Male Human Ranger 10// AC 19 (20 w/2 weap), FF 16, T 15 // HP 109/109 // Percept +14 (+18 Forests/+16 Mtns) // Init +3 (+7 Forests/+5 Mtns)

With weapons drawn the Ranger moves to 16.12, Ursus following him stops in 15.13.

Are we still under the effects of Haste?


No the Haste wore off just after you finished off the Ogres..and We'll wait for Ali as we adjudicate on the tentacle.


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

What's the darker grey area?

PS, couldn't Incky just have taken a few steps and then unleashed the cone?


Female Halfling lvl 10 sorceror (Arcane)

Since the haste is down Naria will recast it on the group.


He's got pointed ears, like Spock. // AC 17, FF 14, T 15 // HP 68/73 // F,R,W 7,11,4 // Percept 14 + // Init +4

"Oh girls, did you miss me?" Romon waves as he watches his teammates once again rush into battle.


Sorry should have said..the darker grey area is distinctly raised above the lighter.Also note that the whole cave slopes upwards towards the throne for purposes of higher ground bonus..


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

K Thanks. Also, How do the giants and snakes seem to be armed? And any boulders or throwy things about?


Lucretia has a dagger, Xanesha has her nasty looking spear, the giant guard carries a stalactite as a Greatclub and the one on the throne has a massive Earthbreaker propped against it.There are plenty of boulders around also


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

Ok, well in that case...

Eager to take down their foes, but wary of their power, DireAliWolf and Lunas move forward, ready to spring on any enemy that gets close enough to them.

Ali: MA to 9:10
Lunas MA to 11:11/11:12 & 12:11/12:12

Readied action to attack first enemy that comes close enough


He's got pointed ears, like Spock. // AC 17, FF 14, T 15 // HP 68/73 // F,R,W 7,11,4 // Percept 14 + // Init +4

Brunette, spear, Xanesha

Somebody should discourage casting before Red Lucretia turns Macho's head again.

As Romon starts moving left his bow comes up and arrows fly.

I'd like to see what all happens, but may not get a good chance to post. Soo ===> Hasted full attack on Lucretia.

+1 Composite Shortbow (+2 Str), +12/+7, 1d6+2, x3, 60' (14 arrows)

+1 Composite Shortbow: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 12 + 2 = 34 ... damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
+1 Composite Shortbow: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 12 + 2 = 18 ... damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
+1 Composite Shortbow: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 7 + 2 = 29 ... damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Crit confirm 1: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 12 + 2 = 31 ... damage: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 4) = 7

Crit confirm 2: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 7 + 2 = 22 ... damage: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 4) = 10

the extra +2 are for haste.


Female Elf Paladin (Swift Justice) 10 | AC26/T19/FF18 CMD30 HP86/86 F+10/R+11/W+10 Per+15 (Low Light) Init +7

Esteriande's eyes' narrow at the Stone Giant's casual assumption. Knowing Muchorak is best suited to deal with the giants and that the raised platform gives them a distinct advantage, she darts to the right.

Moving to scramble up to 14.20.

Once up on the platform she advances on Lucretia...


Muchorak , Ali and Esteriande begin to close on the enemy.Inikai's tentacle fails to make contact

Marak moves forward to a point central to almost everyone and points a finger at Lucretia..who is instantly struck with a spear of golden energy

Damage5d8 ⇒ (7, 7, 5, 1, 5) = 25

Save for half 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (19) + 14 = 33 Lucretia takes 13 damage from the Spear of Purity

Xanesha vanishes from sight and then Romon puts two telling arrows into Lucretia.

Total Damage to Lucretia this round 39.

The Enthroned Giant points a negligent finger and a burst of fire washes over Naria, Marak and Inikai.

Fireball7d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 1, 3, 1, 3, 3) = 20

Lucretia draws her daggers and takes a 5' slither to engage Muchorak..her wounds seemingly making her forget her spell casting in rage.

Dagger 11d20 + 18 ⇒ (20) + 18 = 381d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 161d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17

Dagger 21d20 + 18 ⇒ (16) + 18 = 341d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 141d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

For a total of 44 Damage.

Critical confirm dagger 1 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (18) + 18 = 36 Comfirmed

Damage Dagger 1 2d4 + 15 ⇒ (4, 3) + 15 = 22

Damage Dagger 2 1d4 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 111d4 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Total Damage 44


Apologies this round is taking longer than i thought to resolve

Saves Vs the Fireball

Marak 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Inikai 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28

Inikai1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27

The Stone Giant bodyguard moves down to engage Lunas

Greatclub 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (3) + 16 = 19 Miss

In return the Big Wolf bites back at his attacker.

1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18 Miss

Map start of round 2
