Thinking on what he has gleaned from his limited research since coming upon the Drow, "Beware the blade and bow, we know the Drow use poison."

EVERYONE: +1 to hit, +1AC, +1 vs supernatural abilities, against the DROW only. Unfortunately this wont save you vs any administered poison, but will make you harder to hit.

With a harsh eldritch phrase, Sable attempts to cast steal voice on the drow.

@ Sable:

You have to overcome a Spell Resistance of 17 to target her with spells.

Like water on a lotus blossom you spell is just shrugged off by the malicious drow.

The two dretches each concentrate and try to summon more of their own kind.

"Erastil! HEAR MY PLEA AND DELIVER US FROM THIS DEMON!"
Winter sallies forth, his greatsword readies for its deadly arc as he closes to engage her...

Male Human Weapon Master 6 ~ Inv. Rager 4 | AC 24 T 13 FF 22 | HP 129/129 | F +14 R +6 W +7 | Init +2

Kabal stays on Winter's right (move to X,4) and goes for the dretch in front of him.

Power Attack - 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

Damage - 1d8 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 5 + 2 = 11


The dark elf grimaces as Winter's blade bites deep into her tigh, she grits her teeth and turns around. Meanwhile Kabal sheds black demon blood as he scores a hit against the dretch.

Depora now withdraws and jumps on the rune-carved stone round! Like an acrobat she just runs on the steep stone ring, she seems to have the sure feet of a spider.

Now you realize that the thing, the ancient stone full of runes that comes out of the wall here, actually is a part of the Cyphergate!

Following her needs a Climb Check DC 10 to get on that thing, then an Acrobatics DC 12 to follow.


Female Human Rogue-Knife Master/10 (Init: +4)

Bree hesitates only a breaths span. She knows she cannot take her on her own, and is unsure if the others wish to give chase or let the Drow flee. She looks to the others, knowing that if she is going to catch up to her she must act quickly. Bree sprints after the Drow, hoping that someone is following behind.

Climb 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
Acrobatics 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24


As Depora hears the clacking of your boots behind her, she turns her head while running up, grins and hisses something in her melodic yet cruel language.

Drow:

A burly human bar wench trying to pursue a drow princess!? You won't stand a chance, lass!


Female Human Rogue-Knife Master/10 (Init: +4)

Bree doesn't speak Drow, so it just sounds like gibberish to her. :P

Cursing in Elven, "Korax will feast upon your eyes, shade."

Corvax is quick on the heels of the others and takes Winter's left flank going straight for the drow.

"Drow have an inherent resistance to magic. So it is good to use spell that avoid directly affecting them."

Sebastian moves up behind the wave of fighters and casts Grease on the Drow's dagger.

dc 14 reflex save or the blade is dropped. One more round of buff against the Drow, but then that is it for those buffs.

The demon's assault clanged off of Kabal's shield and he immediatley retaliated.

@ Sable: You will reach her at the beginning of next round if you ran. You have to inform me which kind of movement you chose.

Then you are next to her after your rd3 action is resolved next round. Guess I will take an AoO from you.


Even though Bree is still missing, we can go on to rd 3.

Bree reaches down to her side to retrieve her bolas, bringing them up she swings them around her head before flinging them out at the Drow's legs.

Bolas 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (17) - 1 = 16

Are those actions OK considering the circumstances? I figure, this is what she's been doing for a living, lol.

Also, sorry I'm late to the game, I had a rough night.


If you only use a double move action, you are 10 ft behind her when you throw the bola, so that's perfectly ok. Sadly you miss and the bola flies into the port basin.


Female Human Rogue-Knife Master/10 (Init: +4)

Bree curses as her bolas fly over the edge of the Cyphergate, but continues on with her forward movements.

Corvax continues to hack away at the dretch, determined to land at least one proper blow today..

..But again his sword bounces harmlessly of the demon's skin and his shield swings wide.

Kabal felt the things fangs slice into his exposed thigh and blood well in the wound. Enraged, he raised his falcata and brought it down in a wicked chop that sprayed blood and pieces of bone.

If she counters with a spell, Korax will try to distract her, so readied bird action

Who's on first? As I understand it we are up on the cyphergate, I am right beside her, you are 10' behind.


Female Human Rogue-Knife Master/10 (Init: +4)

Not sure how you would have gotten ahead of me though, without knocking me off?

Looks reasonably wide, two abreast?


Male Human Weapon Master 6 ~ Inv. Rager 4 | AC 24 T 13 FF 22 | HP 129/129 | F +14 R +6 W +7 | Init +2

From this pic it looks at least 20' if not more wide


Female Human Rogue-Knife Master/10 (Init: +4)

Hmm, I see. I figured it would have been more narrow with the acrobatics checks. I guess the curve is just that steep?

Bree moves to get on the other side of the Drow, to box her in if possible.

She still has a hand crossbow, but that doesn't threaten, so no AoO


1 person marked this as a favorite.

For clarification: The arch is 15 feet wide - or at least 15 feet that don't force you to balance - so 2 vs. 1 is no problem. Sable has overtaken you at the beginning of rd 3, but he couldn't attack then, because he used a run action to get there. I will take his attack roll for the AoO he is permitted when Depora fires the crossbow and afterwards move away from him. The acrobatics are necessary to not get blown off the arch once you are up, before, you had to make them because of the steepness.

For clarification I made a quick map.

Arch

Back in the cave Kabal and Winter finish both dretches in one round!

On the arch Depora hisses as Sable attacks her, but she fires her crossbow in melee - Sable's sickle misses - and moves away from him.

Depora attacking Sable/Hand Crossbow1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 23
Damage1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

If wounded:

Greenblood Oil
Save Fortitude DC 13
Frequency 1/round for 4 rounds
Effect 1 Con damage; Cure 1 save

BTW: Her hand crossbow is a "bayonet hand crossbow" which also counts as a melee weapon, functions as a dagger in hand to hand combat.

@ Bree: I moved you around her to box her in, but you have to make an acrobatics roll do avoid her AoO.

Drenched in the demon's gore; Kabal eyed the arch dubiously.

There aint no way in Hell that Im climbing up on that thing. Its certain death for the less than fleet of foot.

He gets a good look around while catching his breath.

Perception - 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

You boys ok? Corvax? You've been way too quiet lately. You aint up to that thinking stuff again are you?

"Nah, jus' got stuck at t'back of the group an' away from all t'fightin'. Seein' as that is m'main skill I felt a lil bit like a fifth wheel on a cart. Feelin' a bit better now though, got in some actual hits, even if they din't do an 'uge amount."

Corvax gives the arch a critical look and thinks that maybe he isn't cut out for the whole clambering and balancing thing.


Male Human Weapon Master 6 ~ Inv. Rager 4 | AC 24 T 13 FF 22 | HP 129/129 | F +14 R +6 W +7 | Init +2

A fifth wheel on a cart? Who would...sounds dumb...oh, I see. Hah! Yah, I aint much on these tight tunnels either. Be good to get some fresh air here soon.

The big man peered up again at the arch.

So I guess now we just wait huh?

I'm guessing that isn't good enough... Oh, and thanks for the clarifications and the map Zyren. You're awesome, that was very helpful.
