perception:: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
Stay away from the idol. Its shadow makes me uneasy. Otom instinctively goes to his hammer. The world of dark magic, arcana and voodoo makes him even a touch fearful as he doesn't know how to deal with things in battle that he can't smash. He gestures to the body of a dead pathfinder on the floor. in its shadow
Orophin Telemnarn |
Orophin advances on the organ.
"I can try, but my favourite instrument is actually voice."
He starts to sing a haunting melody he composed after meeting one of the white witches animated dolls.
Frostfur captives reference!
perform: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (11) + 18 = 29
When the song finishes he asks
"Would you like to sing with me? What songs do you know?"
G.M.E.W. |
No! No! No! I'm the singer you need to play for me! The doll pouts. Standing up the doll reaches up onto the organ. She pulls down a piece of paper that looks like sheet music and starts to sing.
Max: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Orophin: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Zarlonna : 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Otom: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14
Garret: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
Seijiro: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Doll: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
Before anyone really notices what is going on the words of the song the doll is singing become the words to a spell and the writing on the paper she is reading from snake off the paper and swirl around in the air over to Orophin where they float into his ears.
You will play for as long as I sing. The the Doll says with an mischievous smile.
Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 the dice bot likes the creepy doll ;)
Orophin,
You feel an overwhelming need to play for the doll whenever she is singing.
Max: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (2) + 0 = 2
Orophin: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
Zarlonna : 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
Otom: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
Garret: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16
Seijiro: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Doll: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
Now, I wouldn't says we are in 'Combat". I just want to keep things organized. The doll has not done anything that would seem harmful. No map, this is a crowded small room, you can all fit inside but only 3 people can be adjacent to the doll, one of those spaces is currently occupied by Orophin.
Bold May Act:
Otom: 16
Garret: 16
Doll: 13
Zarlonna: 11
Orophin: 9
Seijiro: 4

Garret C. |
Garret sees how the scene evolves quickly around him and tries to focus in wich he can perceive and remember trying to discern whats happening:
K.Arcana: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10
It not looks neccesary yet, Otom. But keep an eye.
How long will you sing? And why has mi friend to play the piano?
Garret also moves adjacent to the doll with his morningstar at hand, prepared to smash the doll if it atacks any of them, or Orophin is hurted in any way.
I don´t like the way it´s refering to Orophin. It appear to means something bad will happen to him if he play the piano
G.M.E.W. |
I have to sign! You have t let me sing! The doll wines as it moves right next to Orophin and begins to sing a old Cheliaxian opera.
Perform: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
Though slightly off key the doll seems to just be warming up its voice.
Orophin,
You must not preform Keyboard. Take a seat next to the doll. It is now in your square.
Orophin Telemnarn |
Orophin sits down next to the doll and starts to play.
I assume the "bot" above was "use" :-) Takes ten for 14 unless I can get any synergy bonuses from ranks in other musical perform skills. Feel free to roll for me if I can't take ten
He'll try to harmonise with the doll.
If I understand, the order wasn't to stop singing, but to play. And Orophin loves to sing.
perform(sing): 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (6) + 18 = 24
G.M.E.W. |
'not' meant 'now' sorry about that.
The Senario doesn't say one way or the other but I'm gong to rule that, for now, the singing doll is a little to distracting to take 10.
Perform: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
The doll continues to sing but it is very obvious she does not appreciate the accompaniment.

Otom: 16

Seijiro Saketa |
Seijiro moves into flank with Garrett on the doll and doesn't wait to see what it does next... he attacks the doll.
to hit: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 1 + 2 = 17
dmg if hits: 1d6 + 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + (1) + 1 = 5
Garret C. |
Now we´ll fight for sure. Seeing how the situation develops in a combat Garret joins, praying Desna this is the right choice.
Cold iron morningstar: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 201d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Maximillian Arcos |
"It probably killed our Pathfinder-in-arms, I would not feel any hesitation to destroy it." Maximillian says with a bit of righteousness, as he moves into the room and tries to use Detect Evil on the doll in case it was vile enough to register an aura.
G.M.E.W. |
No aura
The tiny doll quickly darts away from Seijiro's attack barely dodging the strike. Zarlonna's attack is way off hitting the wall above the organ. Garret takes advantage of Seijiro's attack to find an opening and brings his morningstar down hard on the doll's pretty red bow. A few chips of
porcelain fall off, not nearly as much damage as Garret expected. DR 2/something
Bold May Act:
Otom: 16

Otom Orkbreaker |
Seeing the attacks of his companions fall short and realizing orophin might realy be in trouble Otom gos into a rage, swing the hammer wildly, yelling loud.
attack:: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
damage:: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
G.M.E.W. |
Continuing the song the doll's eyes burn bright read as it launches itself at garret its tiny arms outstretched!
Seijiro, Otom, and Garret all get AoO as it focuses on a spell-like ability.
Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11 vs Touch
Damage: 3d8 + 4 ⇒ (1, 3, 6) + 4 = 14
It is now in Garret's square.
I'll have a map up in a half hour or so. For now lests just resolved the AoOs
[EDIT]
MAP
Seijiro Saketa |
aoo to hit: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 1 + 2 = 19

Seijiro & Otom land solid blows on the Doll but are only able to leave fine cracks across the doll's tiny face.
Bold May Act:
Otom: 16
Garret: 16
Doll: 13 (15 damage)
Orophin: 13 - compelled to play
Zarlonna: 11
Seijiro: 4
Max: 2
@ Orophin,
You are still compelled to play since the doll is still singing, this is a standard action. You have a move action left but you can't leave the organ.
Seijiro Saketa |
Seijiro tries to maneuver into flank if he's not already.
to hit: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 1 + 2 = 21
dmg if hits: 1d6 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 1 + (5) = 9
to confirm if 21 hits: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 1 + 2 = 14
addl dmg if confirms and crittable: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Maximillian Arcos |
With a clumsy arc, Maximillian tries smash the doll to bits with his greatsword.
Greatsword + Power Attack: 1d20 + 8 - 1 ⇒ (5) + 8 - 1 = 12
Damage: 2d6 + 4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 5) + 4 + 3 = 16
Orophin Telemnarn |
Orophin continues to play
perform-keyboard: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
But he is now unset with the poor singing of the doll.
"That is a Chelix whine, not a song. This is how you really sing."
perform(sing): 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (2) + 18 = 20
Maybe he is a little distracted with playing an unfamiliar instrument, but he still sounds better than the doll.
Garret C. |
Garret´s 5steep away of the doll trying to remember if he had ever known of this kind of creatures.
Knowledge check: 1d20 ⇒ 9 +5 if Arcana or History, +10 if Religion
Then he swings his morningstar to smash it, but he looks unable of think and attack at the same time.
Cold iron morningstar: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 61d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Otom, maybe you´ll want to move before attack
G.M.E.W. |
Otom, Unfortunately there isn't a good spot for you to join the action unless you want to enter the square with the doll. Either way you'd miss but it would set you up for an attack next round.
As the party continues the assault on the doll Zarlonna tries to lace an arrow into the fray but just misses the tiny creature. Seijiro on the other hand darts forward and lands a solid strike, opening up one of the cracks into a gaping wound. Max and Garret are unable to find an opening though as the cleric wedges himself in a corner.
Now with a large crack across its face, exposing its hollow head, the doll looks even more creepy. Reaching up into its hair it pulls out a long wicked looking pin and once again launches itself at Garret.
Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 miss
Damage: 1d2 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0
Garret this provokes as the doll enter's your square.
Bold May Act:
Otom: 16
Garret: 16
Doll: 13 (22 damage)
Orophin: 13 - compelled to keep playing
Zarlonna: 11

Garret C. |
Aoo: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 121d8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
[/b]Come to dance with me, little doll. If you´re able to even touch me. [/b] Garret is trying to provoke the doll as he carefully moves out of the doll´s reach before strike it again.
Cold iron morningstar: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 71d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
If you move back a little, be could try to make it follow us to where more people can attack, and make attacks of opportunity.
Because if it will depend of my ability to land a blow... ;D
Seijiro Saketa |
Seijiro strikes again, moving to retain flank if necessary
to hit: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 1 + 2 = 23
dmg if hits: 1d6 + 1 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 1 + (1) = 5
to confirm: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 1 + 2 = 20
addl dmg if crits: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 1 = 5
Orophin Telemnarn |
Orophin continues to play, the tune changing to a battle ballad.
With the doll no longer interested in singing, he accompanies his poor playing with a much better song.
perform-keyboard: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
perform-sing: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (4) + 18 = 22
Maximillian Arcos |
Maxmillian moves straight at the doll and tries to end its unnatural existence.
Greatsword + Power Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
Or, at least he would if I could roll above a 5.
Otom Orkbreaker |
Frustrated that he cant't get in to the battle and still in a rage Otom tries to help Orophin get free of the spell the only way he can think of No more infernal MUSIC!! He takes a huge arcing swing at the piano.
attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
G.M.E.W. |
Seijiro lands another viscous strike causing a large chuck of the dolls face to fall completely off. The Doll continues its song and the assault though, determined to bring down the cleric.
Another AoO for Garret.
Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Damage: 1d2 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0
Otom starts to smash the organ, hoping to break Orophin from the spell.
Will: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17 As the keys of the organ fly about the room, one of them smacks the Oracle in he forehead snapping him out of the grip of the spell!
Party is up!
Seijiro Saketa |
Again, Seijiro strikes at the doll...
to hit: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 1 + 2 = 10
dmg if hits: 1d6 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 1 + (2) = 5
... this time his strike goes awry as his concentration is broken by flying bits of instrument.
Maximillian Arcos |
Using his bulk to block potentially safe areas away from his sword, Maximillian brings his weapon down hard on the murderous doll.
Greatsword + P.A.: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
Damage: 2d6 + 4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 6) + 4 + 3 = 16
Orophin Telemnarn |
Orophin looks up a little surprised.
"Destroying a music instrument?"
Then with a sigh he admits.
"Though that one may deserve it"
He stands, draws his weapon and closes on the doll.
"Music should be enjoyed, not abused."
Garret C. |
Well done Max.
Does anybody know what was that thing? Or why it will be here?
Then, he starts searching the room, for clues about the people who put the doll here.
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
Orophin Telemnarn |
"I have seen similar dolls in the north. They are made by the White Witches. Though this one seemed somewhat different and much tougher than the one I met. Rumour has it that their creators can see through their eyes. Odd, this one seemed to have more free will..."
How is everyone for HP? I if we have more than one injured I can do some channelling.
Garret C. |
I´ll check the body. But first I want to heal myself
Garret holds is holy symbol and a everybody, but the doll, feels Desna´s han soothing his pain and healing his wounds.
channel: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 5) = 8
channel: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 2) = 7
Be are 2 "healers", so I think we can spent channels more liberally.
And now, Oh Desna, please let me laearn about that body. Says Garret kneelig to examine the corpse.
Spending one use of bit of luck to avoid my horrible rolls, or not
heal: 2d20 ⇒ (7, 7) = 14+6, it sums a total of 13
Maximillian Arcos |
"I, too, have had the unpleasant experience of those witch-touched dolls in the north. It would appear there is no end to the depraved creations of those with misplaced intentions." He then assists Garret in examining the bodies, but his lack of skill is obvious.
Heal (aid): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Orophin Telemnarn |
"Something like them, yes." agrees Orophin.
"The White witches of the north set them on their borders in little toy houses. Homage I suppose to Baba Yoga. This one was different though."
He too looks at the dead body.
heal aid: 1d20 ⇒ 18
G.M.E.W. |
In the shattered pieces of the dool you find a bright green gem that radiates necrotic energies.
The dead pathfinder is much the same as the one's you found upstairs in the barrels. He has a number of small cuts, likely the cause of death. In a satchel you do find an everburning torch.
Searching the room you find a lumber of relics from around the Innersea and beyond. The only item of value is a set of finely crafted studded leather armor decorated in northern Mwangi style. You also fine a black blades dagger sized for a small creature. The blade is unlike any you have ever seen and it matches the wounds on the dead pathfinder.
A nondescript door stands near the one you entered though it appears to be stuck, as if a great weight has fallen onto it from the other side.
Str checks to open
Seijiro Saketa |
Seijiro moves to assist whoever wants to take lead on the door.
strong ck DC 10: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11
Orophin Telemnarn |
"Interesting, such a small blade. We may need to keep on our toes."
Orophin also helps out trying to push the door open.
str assist: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16
He looks at the blade again while resting after the effort.
"Could the doll have used this?"
Maximillian Arcos |
"Undoubtedly, that is the doll's murder weapon." Maximillian declares before he attempts to force the door open with brute strength.
Taking 20 on Strength check for a 23 before any aid.
Garret C. |
Seeing Seijiro, Maximillian and Otom pushing the door, Garret decides to help them.
Take 10 on Strengh aid for a 12.
Four men and a fox trying to open a door... It will not say good things about us if we´re not able to open it.
