Brallenera Thalkham |
There's a grim smile on Brallenera's lips as she runs toward the Spider's room, not wasting any time.
Justice will be served. The slaves will be avenged.
As she comes closer to the Spider's lair, she let her anger go, giving her emotions free reign over her brain.
RAGE! STR 20 CON 21 HP+4 DR 1/- AC 15/9/14, +2 to Will saves
STR to bash the door open while RAGE!: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 3 + 2 = 21
The door is probably the first victim
Time to pay for your deeds, Spider. There will be no escape. Only your bloody death will satisfy me.
GM Chyro |
Indeed, the door lasts not as Brallenera kicks it down harder than a man named Steven could.
As you enter, there is nobody in sight, but someone has just finished a sentence.
Will Brallenera: 1 + 2 + 2 = 5
Will Ala'Ihys: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Joseph: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Kravg: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Toorin: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Brallenera and Joseph fall asleep.
Ala'Ihys: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
Brallenera: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Joseph: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15
Kravg: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Toorin: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Ouidda: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
Ouidda's chambers, round 1.
Ouidda's expression: "Ohohoho, pathetic."
She then addresses the closest person, Ala'Ihys;
"Surely your friends are capable enough to hold their own, reporting victory in advance to your Venture Captain would be fine."
Suggestion.
Will Ala'Ihys: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
The message: go take a walk over to the lodge and talk with your VC.

Ala'Ihys ?
Joseph (asleep)
Kravg & Toorin
Brallenera (asleep)
Ala’Ihys the Archer |
GM Chyro |
Wrong? How so? :P
I couldn't find a proper female villain laugh on youtube, so i go for the next best (loony) thing.
Kravg Ironfeather |
Kravg kicks Brallenera awake and then moves as far as a single move could take him.
I believe waking someone is a move action, if I'm wrong and it's a free action, I'll double move to her.
GM Chyro |
Correct, standard action.
Kravg kicks Brallenera in the side to wake her up.
Toorin & Brallenera
Brallenera Thalkham |
Am I still under the effect of my Rage? Can't see the map clearly, can I attack the Spider?
Brallenera stands up, still a little dizzy, and shameful
Awww, Spider, you can run out of spell, but I'll do my utmost so you run out of blood before.
if she can attack on melee (add +2 to hit/dmg if RAGE!)
attack with shame and axe: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
dmg: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Ranged attack
Throw hand axe: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
GM Chyro |
If a barbarian falls unconscious, her rage immediately ends, ...yaddayadda other details about death..
You can move and attack on range, but take 1 ranged increment if you do, with which, despite fatigue, you'd hit.
Toorin
GM Chyro |
No rush...you can do it with just the three of you :3
Toorin |
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
Toorin tugs on Julia's ear to wake her and then he puts the corner of the wall between himself and the Spider, saying, "Ala'Ihys has been enchanted with a suggestion spell. I fear he may not return in time to help us."
Do the furnishings shown on the map provide any cover from ranged attacks? Do they impede movement?
GM Chyro |
Yes, they are obstacles.
-----------------------------
Ouidda's chambers, round 2.
Ouidda snickers arrogantly.
"Honestly, you think you are a match?
Peasants..."
She looks at the group, then starts a song.
"As i find my person entrenched by dread,
i wish i was in the comfort of- my bed.
Having done so much good for this place,
only to have me lose- some face.
..[continued sad singing]"
Enthrall
DC 17 will.
Will Brallenera: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 2 = 7
Will Joseph: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8
Will Kravg, DC 16: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Wow, you guys really like dramatic songs.
Kravg is now indifferent to Ooida (just another stuck-up person), since he has a Wis score of 16+, but aware of his surroundings.
Toorin is kinda safe, since he's not looking at her, having taken cover behind the wall.
-------------
Ala'Ihys is walking, enjoying the scenery.
Joseph (enthralled)
Kravg (enthralled) Toorin
Brallenera (enthralled)
All but Toorin are currently enthralled.
Enthralled characters take no action, unless they witness actions from the opposite party they oppose, such as hostile actions, sabotage etc.
==>Good thing: Toorin can attempt an opposing Charisma check, using the CHA modifier highest among the party. If his check beats the DC 17, he makes enough BOO/WHISTLE/BOO to wake you up.
Toorin |
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
Did she use some kind of Meta-magic to reduce the casting time? The spell is listed as requiring a full round of uninterrupted attention before the spell takes effect. I would think everyone would get to act this round.
Also, can you tell me if Toorin were to move toward her and cast a spell, would he have to make a save immediately or would he have to spend a full round hearing her singing? If she were to attack Toorin, would that break the enthrallment? If he were to do damage to her, would that interrupt her casting unless she can make a concentration check? Finally, if Julia/Joseph were to start a countersong performance before the Spider finishes her full round of casting, could we use her/his performance result as our saving throw?
I'll make Toorin's action once I get answers to these questions, which will be after lunch some time (East Coast U.S. time).
GM Chyro |
Holy smokes, i missed that.
Major retcon.
Good news: No enthrall.
Other news: i replace it with the original roll for 1 CP, 2 SUGG: 1d2 ⇒ 1
To Kravg she says:
Would you kindly prevent anyone from getting to me, i can hardly hand over my resignation with them trying to kill me.
[Ooc]Spellcraft 16: Charm Person
Kravg now feels compelled to help this 'nice lady' survive, by making sure none reach Ouidda.
Joseph
Kravg & Toorin
Brallenera
Kravg Ironfeather |
Even better...
Kravg moves towards the woman, only to stop 10 feet from her. He then turns around and whips his kusarigama ball end menacingly in front of him.
"None shall pass! She is not to be harmed!"
Readied Attack to Trip: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
Brallenera Thalkham |
Awww... Bird Face.. I don't wanna fight you. Pointy-Ears, Josepha, you have the big brains and the magic, do something!
Brallenera looks at the Spider with even more hate than before, if possible.
GM Chyro |
It's a fun privilege to play the evil villain :)
Lord Joseph Wraitheart |
I know what you mean and I thought Julia was still asleep?
Julia looks towards the Spider with a Leer
"Pity, you'd make for good entertainment if I could bring you home." she grits her teeth as she looks over at Kravg
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
Enough to know that's a charm effect I believe, giving Julia more a reason to use her ability to wake him up...oh wait. that ability was replaced with Rallying cry which only works on Fear and Dispare effects.
"Birdman, I tire of you. Lay down." she statues a she casts a spell of grease, covering the table and chairs and Kravag's position.
Grease DC 13 Reflex
doing it to avoid blocking the Angry dwarf's way, but to catch Kravag. not as good as my other Bard who is a spellcaster focus with sound striker and song healer abilities :D
GM Chyro |
With Kravg having passed the attempted grease J/J had cast, it's Brallenera & Toorin's turn
Toorin |
Toorin grits his teeth and steps away from the wall, warily keeping out of reach of Kravg's chain, until he can see the Spider. "I have only attack spells prepared. Use charm or sleep on Kravg. I'll keep the spider busy for a bit."
Once he has a line of slight to the villain, he says, "Zyzst!" and gestures as if throwing a javelin at the Spider. A sphere of glowing energy zooms from his hand, zig-zagging past Kravg and Brallenera before heading straight into the Spider.
Magic Missile
Force Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
GM Chyro |
With ranged, sure. You'll just take increment penalty.
Brallenera Thalkham |
Brallenera takes a second throwing axe, and aim it at the Spider's head
Throwing axe: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16
Dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Awww...I don't need to get close to you to harm you, Spider. Too bad for you.
Don't know how much penalty I have
GM Chyro |
With throwing axes having 10ft range and Ouidda 20ft away, just -2. Granted, fatigue's taking it's toll with -2 to str & dex.
Toorin launches an arcane projectile, hitting Ouidda in the chest.
"Naughty elf! How dare you attack a woman in the bust."
Barely having said that, an axe from Brallenera flies past her head.
* >:( *
--------------------------------------
Ouidda's chambers, round 3.
"Feathered friend, could you please move 5ft forward." West
She says this in a very casual way, as if between friends.
She then takes a 5ft step south.
Ouidda starts chanting in Kelish.
Sleep
---------------------
Ala'Ihys
Underway, you are spoken to by a small child with a basket full of flowers.
She's wearing a small crude pendant, which looks like this
"Hello sir, would you like to buy a flower?
Just 2 copper pieces.
:3"
J/J <== We're here.
Kravg & Toorin
Brallenera
Toorin |
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26
"Sleep spell in progress!" Toorin yells.
GM Chyro |
Guys, you can post your actions in advance.
Brallenera Thalkham |
Brallenera will try to get around the table (see map) to avoid Birdface and to cut the Spider's escape. And of course, if she can, to cut the Spider herself..
GM Chyro |
The girl's eyes shine at the kind man's offer.
She gives Ala'Ihys three big Blue dawn flowers.
"Thank you mister, thank you alot. ^^"
Toorin |
I want to wait until Julia/Joseph has posted to see if she/he can disrupt the sleep spell in progress. That will affect what I make Toorin do.
GM Chyro |
I'll bot if he hasn't posted within an hour.
GM Chyro |
Joseph doesn't have ranged weapons.
J/J throws a counter Charm Person.
"Why not come with us, talk it over huh?"
Will Ouidda, DC 13: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15
She arrogantly smirks in response.
Kravg Last turn being charmed, or DC 16 cha check.
Toorin
Brallenera (posted actions)
Kravg Ironfeather |
Cha check: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (20) - 2 = 18 Alright let's get to the kicking
Kravg snaps out of the charmed person state and looks back to Ouidda.
"You know, making me hinder my own teammates will cost you dearly. Please lay down and stay there."
Trip attempt: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Cue the concentration check for the sleep.
Kravg then steps beside her and holds his fist awfully close above her head.
GM Chyro |
It was supposed to be a DC 20 from the discussion roll i made, but i typed 16, so you're lucky. ;)
I'm going with vigorious motion.
Focus, DC 11: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
She's still casting.
Toorin |
After moving closer and getting a reasonably clear shot, Toorin spits out the arcane words to activate his snowball spell, "Nix Chisanu Mira", at which point a pristine sphere of snow appears in his hand and he lobs it at the Spider.
Ranged Touch, ally adjacent, prone target: 1d20 + 3 - 4 - 4 ⇒ (14) + 3 - 4 - 4 = 9
Cold Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 2) = 5
She may get the spell off, but it looks like that might be her last one, unless Brallenera can get at her.
GM Chyro |
Had it not been for one of 2 factors, Ouidda would have been hit, but Toorin's snowball hits a stool behind her.
Brallenera, you can attack her, yes.
Brallenera Thalkham |
Brallenera is, shall will say, quite unhappy with the Spider's treachery.
Besides, she is a slaver.
And the blonde barbarian has no love in her big heart for slavers.
But she has a big axe for those who indulge in the trade of people.
RAGE! STR 20 CON 21, etc...
Attack vs Prone Spider with Msw Axe, with RAGE! : 1d20 + 4 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 5 + 2 = 17
dmg, RAGE!: 1d10 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 2 = 8
GM Chyro |
Kravg, no. You snapped to when your turn came around, after her in init, she didn't start casting with you being your own self next to her.
Brallenera delivers a moderate, albeit soft for her doing, strike against Ouidda.
Focus DC 19: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
"OW!!"...Ouidda's lost focus and her attempt at a sleep spell fizzles.
--------------------------------------
Ouidda's chambers, round 4
Focus DC 17: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
Brallenera and Kravg get an AoO
GM Chyro |
Ouidda takes the axe to the shoulder, she's very bloodied now, but still active.
"Pitiful dwarf!"
GM Chyro |
"Blasphemy, oversized canary!"
She grabs for a potion.
Kravg...?
