GM Blood's Age of Worms in Golarion #2

Game Master David James Olsen

Round 6

"&#@%*, time to get serious!" Dryn takes a step forward, downs her mutagen, and reloads her crossbow in preparation for the coming assault. The increasingly familiar sensation of moving more quickly takes over.

Well all, looks like the web will be burned out in a few moments. And then I would expect more friends to come and visit us. Kilthan and Justin, you want to take up positions before the hallway so that we cannot be flanked?

Also, we should search the two rooms off of where we are. Who knows what may be inside of them.

I delay my action, but want to remain right before Justin and Kilthan in the order so that if I use the Slumber Hex, they can get a free coup de gras in.

As a note, I doubt any of us could have seen where the tiefling went as the webs block vision past 20' and I am pretty sure there was that much web there, some of which was probably burning at the time.

Aarakess, I was thinking about that, but it was right on the border of being able to see/not see so I went on the side of letting you see him. Now if the web was not burning I totally would have said you couldn't.

Round 6

Rohara steps to the side and waits to see what is to come from down the hallway. She looks to each over her companions in an assessing glace to see how they have fared through the first series of battles everyone and asks in a whisper, "How is everyone doing?"

5-ft Step to K-6, Delay

Justin rushes to hold the front of the line moving to the edge of the burning web. Move to M6 draw trident and ready attack on approach.

Kilthan takes up a position next to Justin [in L6], readying to strike out with his waraxe.

If needed...

The tiefling runs north up the hallway while the unmistakeable sounds of a bar being placed behind the door to the south

Ingrid has her Whip ready.

Round 7

Dryn steps into the room, shutting the door behind her. If the door can be locked/barred from this side, I'll do so. "I think we should give chase, try to catch 'em before they prepare too much! Or at least try to open that door they barred."

Justin and Kilthan, keep an eye on that hallway. Girls, lets check these two doors at the north and south of this room. I do not want any surprises behind us.

Kilthan nods, "Done. Find what you can, we'll keep an eye out."

Rohara nods to Aarakess, "Sounds like a sound plan."

She moves to the nearest door and with weapon at the ready opens the door.

Move to J-5 and open the door.

"Let's see if we can force the door while we watch."
have they want the door closed I think I want the door open.
Str check on barred door 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

"It's shut tight."

We could just light the door on fire. If it is an enclosed room, it will fill with smoke much faster than will this open hallway. And if the tiefling does not flee, then eventually the door will be weakened so that we can smash it.

Or Kilthan can just use his axe.

The doors to the north and south from the first room are still both open, as well as the doors leading north from the hallway.

Dryn you shut to marble door and put the bar across it. You think that without magic, it would be almost impossible to bar this door down.

Rohara moves up to the north:

Blankets cover the floor of this chamber, surrounding a wooden crate atop which stands a crude statue of a heavily scarred humanoid figure. Stone pegs carved into the wall light this area with flickering, bright flames.

Aarakess moves to the south:

This chamber holds two beds against the east wall, a long wooden table along the south wall, two stools, and a weapons rack along the west wall. An incomplete robe made from human skin lies on the table with a variety of tools spread out around it.

Justin moves forward and indeed the wooden door seems stout. He hears something to the north and turns and sees a huge boar, and the cultist unchaining it.

is Kilthan moving over there first?

Justin motions Kilthan over by his side again.

This should be the last round of shield coming up.

Just waiting for kilthan to verify what he is doing before doing the boar

Just waiting for kilthan to verify what he is doing before doing the boar

I recommend put a spit through it and slowly roasting it over a big pit fire. Of course this might tick off the boar if it were not dead.

Sorry, yes, Kilthan's staying in position with Justin.

M10 just left of Justin with a readied attack should work.

Justin wrinkles his face in disgust at the smell of burnt web and cultists.
"I don't like the smell, but I'll smell this all day if it means the forces of evil are taking a licking like this."

Indeed -- we cover the doors that way.

Kilthan says, "Dire boar. It takes a lot of killing, but makes a nice lunch."

Readied Attack (Waraxe, Power Attack): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21 for 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

The Dire Boar charges and both Kilthan and Justin get a hit in before its tusks reach them

Curious about my position on the map. Is there another door near me?

Hearing the call from Kilthan, and most likely the grunts of the boar, I move to M5 and drop a slumber hex on the boar.

Slumber Hex: DC15 Will or asleep for 3 rounds.

That is one big ugly pig.

AoO trident 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 231d8 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
If slumber succeeds, Justin delays till after Kilthan.

Dryn you closed and barred the initial door leading into the Zon Kuthon Temple

Justin, I took your roll for AoO from before for his charge, but you can use that roll for an attack if you wish. Make sure to adjust your damage taken

Aarakess uses the sleep hex on the boar, but it is so enraged that it doesn't even notice

Justin drops the trident and attacks the boar with a snarl after healing himself.

Justin savages the boar that exposed himself after charging.
Using the first roll is OK. Forgot I did that. 23physical damage vs AC 13

Round 9

Okay, just wanted to be sure I didn't lock myself outside for some reason!

Seeing the giant animal come crashing down into the hallway, Dryn takes a look and can only think of one thing to say. "That's some pig!" Moving into the room, she attempts to skewer it with a crossbow bolt.

Move to L5, Standard to crossbow the pig.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 5 + 2 + 1 - 4 = 14
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Justin wounds the Dire Boar heavily and Dryn adds to its wounds by hitting it with her crossbow

Rohara, Ingrid, and Kilthan to finish the round

Atk: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Rohara and Kilthan are up before the boar and the tiefling

Hearing sounds of combat and seeing the others moves in and attack, Rohara follows suit. The woman moves in and is surprised to see such a large boar but does not stop to ponder it long as she moves to Kilthan's side and strikes out with her mace at the large beast.

Move to M-9
Attack Boar with mace 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 (miss}

Kilthan braces himself and then bashes at the boar with his shield, using the momentum to bring his waraxe around and down on the beast's bristling neck.

Waraxe, Power Attack: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 1 = 9 {bless} for 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Oh, nasty won't go above 10 diceroller. Welcome back.

The beast tries to gore Justin once again, but is slowed down by its injuries just enough to miss with its tusks.

Gore 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18
Damage 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (5, 2) + 9 = 16

The tiefling moves a step closer and fires his bow at Kilthan before tossing it aside and drawing his greataxe.

Frustrated that the beast is still standing, Aarakess again calls on the power of her patron and sends great doubt into the tiny mind of the raging boar.

Evil Eye Hex - decrease AC: -2 to AC for 7 rounds, reduced to 1 round if DC15 Will save.

Hit him hard now while he is distracted.

Aarakess hexes the beast once again this time its has no chance to resist it. You notice it is clumsier than even before.

Rohara watches the elf as he seems distracted and misses with his attacks. She gently places a hand on his arm and blesses him with her goddess' luck, "Strike well Kilthan, you now have Desna's luck."

A Bit of Luck on Kithan.

Justin heals and attacks.

Justin kills the dire boar, leaving the tiefling behind it wielding the great axe

"Get him Kilthan."

Kilthan smiles grimly, "Aye, That's the plan"

Kilthan advances quickly, stepping through the door and bringing the last foe into reach of his axe. "Ran out of stuff to throw in our way, did you?", he asks as he brings the blade up.

Two attack rolls (bit of luck):
Waraxe, Power Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 1 = 8 {bless}
Waraxe, Power Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 1 = 9 {bless}

Ok, then.. Apparently even Desna's luck is no match for the dice roller...
