Tae shoots at Ilka.

to hit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
dmg if hits: 1d6 ⇒ 3

but his arrow fars fall short of the target and he grimaces as his hidden position is now no longer a matter of stealth.

Will Save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

"Ussur! We forgot the Windows back in Arwyll's Stead- -we'll be right back, guys," Jag assures the party as he and his bear head back townward.

Jag and Ussur will be 50 feet offscreen.

reflex save vs. spell: 1d20 + 4 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 4 + 5 = 29

Hali smirks. "Ye'll have t' do better th'n that!" He steps out of the mire and delivers a swing with his warhammer.

warhammer, attack, bless, magic weapon: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 8 + 1 = 29 for bludgeoning, silvered, magic: 1d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 1 = 10
confirm crit: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 8 + 1 = 22 for bludgeoning, silvered, magic: 2d8 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (7, 5) + 8 + 2 = 22

Advancing forward as she continues her war-chant, Arileth mentally files Ishingka and Jag under the category of 'opponents' for the moment. If I can, including Jag and Ishingka in the Enthrall area-of-effect. DC 15.

Enthrall

Will Save Ilka, +4 from being from an unfriendly group: 1d20 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 4 = 20
Will Save Umber, +4 from being from an unfriendly group: 1d20 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 2 + 4 = 13
Will Save BG 1, +4 from being from an unfriendly group: 1d20 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 + 4 = 19
Will Save BG 2, +4 from being from an unfriendly group: 1d20 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 + 4 = 20

Will Save Ishingka: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Will Save Jag: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Arileth sends out her beautiful pattern, trying to capture the attention of all but strangely, only attracts the attention of Jag and the boar.

The two of them are now enthralled for the effect lasts as long as you speak or sing, to a maximum of 1 hour. Those enthralled by your words take no action while you speak or sing and for 1d3 rounds thereafter while they discuss the topic or performance. Those entering the area during the performance must also successfully save or become enthralled. The speech ends (but the 1d3-round delay still applies) if you lose concentration or do anything other than speak or sing.

In addition, if any member of the audience (read: any of the enemies) are harmed those two will be allowed another save. If either of them witnesses something they would object to who has 4 or more HD will immediately become hostile.

Hali went out of order, which is fine I just want it noted as to why he isn't bolded, so only Thael needs to act

Sorry, was way more out of commission over the holiday than I thought I would be. I'm confused about who I can hit without breaking the enthrall. To keep things going, if I can hit any enemies without breaking it, I'll send a magic missile over...if I can't, I'll delay.

MM: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

The enthrall effect will end if any of the enemies are damaged

Okay, I'll delay then.

I think you list Ishingka as enthralled, but she isn't, right? She's under Suggestion to run away...

I suppose after this we'll be....veterans of psychic wars -plays cowbell-

Ishingka is both, with the Enthrall taking precedence I think. Enthrall honestly isn't meant to be used in combat so that should resolve itself soon enough.

The Beastly sister takes a step backward and conjures an entanglement of vines roots and thorns

Jag runs back to Arwyll's Stead!

Ishingka is Enthralled and anxious about it because she has a mission to go get backup!

reflex dc 15: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

Tae steps out of the entangle and fires his bow at the west most enemy.

to hit: 1d20 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 6 - 4 = 10 (-4 taken because of cover)
dmg if hits: 1d6 ⇒ 1

but I'm sure that misses anyway

Thael walks almost into the entangling vines. Surveying the situation, he casts create pit underneath the enemy caster.

create pit, DC 19 Reflex

Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Arileth is to caught up in her war-chant to dodge the vines that erupt around her. Finding them grabbing at her limbs, she attempts to slip their grasp.

Bit of luck on self, then attempt to use Escape Artist to break the entangle.

Escape Artist: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20
Escape Artist: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

GM, just reposition Ishingka as she runs--she's essentially an NPC until the Suggestion wears off. Sadly, she can run very fast...

Thael's Pit spell will break the Enthrall Effect.

Umber the Boar Tries to escape the foliage Strength check, DC 15: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Umber remains trapped.

I am just gonna take Ishingka and Jag out of the turn order, they are effectively out of this fight

Hali smirks and shakes his head as he steps out of the entangling vines. "Is that all ye got?!" He shouts as he swings his hammer at the spellcaster again.

warhammer, attack, bless: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 1 = 15 for bludgeoning, silvered, magic: 1d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 4 + 1 = 13

Sounds good to me. I'll be over here, checking windows and stuff. (and lurking for awhile).

I should have written "Please"...see you guys at the next fight! :(

As Hali moves, the provokes an attack from the boar who was adjacent to him.

Gore of Opportunity: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 171d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Hali avoids the entangling brambles, but finds that his hammer misses the mark vs the Druid.

She draws a scroll and casts off of it, summoning a flaming scimitar into her hand.

the Boar manages to exit the brambles and keeps the pressure on Hali.

Gore: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 111d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

The Gore misses however.

how does a 5' step provoke? Do the brambles prevent 5' steps?

Arileth quickly moves out of the area of the entangling vines. She hurries toward the witch, drawing her longsword as she goes.

Double-move, skirting the entangle aoe.

The brambles are more than difficult terrain, the explicitly make movement out of them have double cost, short of a freedom of movement.

Thael skirts the entangling spell as he tries to get closer to his spell range.

double move, looks like some difficult terrain along the side of the spell, so I'm counting each square as 2 unless you tell me otherwise.

Yup the squares that are mostly trees are all difficult terrain

Hali steps up and delivers another heavy blow. "Ye're runnin' out o' space there, lass."

Ok that ill drop Ilka, thus ending the combat

From inside the tent you hear the feint muffled yells of a man.

When you go in to investigate you find an older man in his underclothes, and with only one arm, though the wound appears quite old.

do the boars poof out of existence of just turn and run?

"Ye call that a fight!" Hali shouts after the missing boars, shaking his head in disgust before turning to the sound in the tent.

let me know if you want the bear's endurance potion, Ishingka, otherwise Hali wants it. As party barbarian I think you get first dibs

Hali ducks into the tent. "Are ye alrigh' there? Can I help ya?"

this is the guy we were looking for, right?

-Posted with Wayfinder

Two of them poof. Poor Umber probably remains stuck in the entanglement if you really want to kill her.

The man struggles against his bonds and gives a few muffled shouts.

You were told that the old hermit who adventured with Wate Arwyll had only one arm, so probably

Hali removes the man's gag and then pulls out his battleaxe and uses it to carefully remove the man's bonds. "Are ye alright?"

-Posted with Wayfinder

Thael says "What's your name, sir?"

Ishingka appears, looking a little out of breath after sprinting over the hinterlands, and then sprinting back. Her face glowers and her tusks emerge as she speaks. "Which of you cowards did that to me?" she inquires of the unmoving combatants?

She takes the potion from Hali, criminally ashamed of fleeing while a dwarf did her work. "Urrr...thank you." she barely gets out.

After this she stands awkwardly with Thael and Hali, visibly fuming and trying to await the hermit's reply with some semblance of patience.

The old man looks with an almost wild look on his face Aye, I am Grev! Thanks for saving me from that piece of werk.

He picks himself up and begins to brush himself off Wanna come back to my flat? I can pay ye a bit if they didn't take all my stuff. Maybe read you some passages from my book?

Ishingka arches a brow. "Are you all right, sir? We saw some blood..."

Jag and Ussur return about 10~15 minutes later or so.

"Guys? I don't think it's that big of a deal if the windows are open or not-", he cuts off, seeing the now-quiet battlefield.

"Okay, I'l bite. What just happened?"

are there any more homesteads?

Hali shakes his head. "No. We need ye to make yer way back to town with us."

-Posted with Wayfinder

No that was the last one

He shakes his head Bah, I'm fine. My and Wate got into more than 1 scrap like that one!

He looks seriously at Hali Sonny, I am not going anywhere but back to my home to work on my memoirs, you got that!

"It's best for your own safety if you come to town for a little while... You can get a comfortable room and work on your memoirs there for a bit."

diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

he shakes Tae off and starts t owalk away This is my life's work. My memoir! People deserve to know what happened back then with Wate and I and the old gang! I have to work on it and I would prefer to do it someplace where I have all of my notes!

"We'll help you transport your notes if that's what it takes to get you to come to town... you must understand the dangers of staying here. Getting slaughtered by marauding orcs will not get your memoirs finished or published... "

"We can at least escort you back to your home," Thael offers. "Perhaps your home will already have been attacked and they will leave it alone."

The one-armed man gestures emphatically at Thael Yes, yes come to my place and I'll show you my manuscript - I have been looking for feedback!

He drags you back to his ridiculously posh outpost where he begins to collect the pages of his manuscript.

He hands one to Thael and asks him to read it and tell him what he thinks.

“And then I pulled my sword out of the orc, and the blade made a terrible smacking noise as the orc cried, ‘Raaarggh!’ If my sword had a voice, it would have screamed right back at the orc, spitting the monster’s blood in his face.”

Thael also sees on the reverse of it a sketch - a sketch of Vegazi.

Hali reluctantly returns to the cabin. The man's writing compels him to sit down and ponder the metalwork on his warhammer.

-Posted with Wayfinder

"...Grev...how did you come by this sketch? Do you know this orc?"

Ishingka furrows her brow. Friend or foe? Vegazi, I mean. She doesn't seem one for subterfuge. She keeps her thoughts private, but glances at Hali and Thael.

"Yes...why did you draw this one?" Thael asks of the Vegazi sketch.

Grev looks surprised at your interest but seizes upon it.

Oh that one - that one's a great story actually. 10 years ago Wate and I got ourselves captured but these orc woman - we witnessed as she was beginning some sort of ritual sacrifice - with us as the sacrifice. Shortly before the ceremony was to begin this woman came and saved us. To thank her Wate gave her his ring, to prove she was a true friend to any who might doubt her. I'll never forget what enormous risks she took for us that day. She was this diaboloical woman's daughter, the only orc daughter of the bunch come to think of it. The rest were tieflings.

Ishingka breathes out a sigh of relief. "We know her as well. We are aiding her, and the town. If there's any insight you can impart to us about her former 'mother'...we would be in your debt.". As usual, the bloodrager takes the human at his word.

"We have also had a good impression of Vegazi," Thael says. "What can you tell us of her mother or these tieflings?"

"Yeah, Veghazi's been great to us," Jag echoes.

Busy day, can't post much. Following along.

he nods as you speak about her You mean she's back? And in Aryll's Stead? Oh that's wonderful how did Wate and her's reunion go?

Ishingka's face lowers, her tattoos seeming to droop. "We found Veghazi less than a fortnight ago, defending his body, Grev. He had been attacked, or they had, by devils and orcs. He was buried with honor. Grev...is your first name Adil? Or is there someone else with that name?"
