Owai is up!

Owai lashes out with his blade at the demon, then steps back to let his allies get a clear shot.

Swift to activate Crane Style and Snake Style, move action to activate Battle Dance, attack Defensively, then 5ft back. AC is 27, 31 vs first attack from him.
1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30
1d6 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12
Crit Threat 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27
1d6 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12

Owai cuts into the demon but does not do the full amount of damage that he expected!

The demon steps over to tear into Osric!

claw: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32

You guys are up!

Sheesh. Your welcome for eating up all those 1s and a 2.

Flinders steps around Red Hair and tries to pull the demon to the ground with his whip!

Whip: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 2 = 12

Xue moves Red hair next to Osric and attacks to aid him!

Have a +3 to hit Osric!

Wincing in pain, and clearly nearing his last reserves of strength, Osric grits his teeth and swings his axe twice at the fearsome creature before him!

Cold Iron Greataxe: 1d20 + 9 + 4 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 9 + 4 + 2 + 3 = 31
Damage: 1d12 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 3 + 4 = 19

Cold Iron Greataxe: 1d20 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 4 + 2 + 3 = 16
Damage: 1d12 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 4 = 10

Favored enemy, heroism, and aid from Xue added to attacks, favored enemy added to damage. And yes, EF thanks for saving those roll for the attack on me!

My aid would only help on the first attack, I think.

Hmm, you're probably right. Well, let's hope the first attack finishes him then! The second may have missed either way.

With a mighty swing Osric ends the demon!

Out of combat!

Aside from her combat gear, Inexora carried a satchel filled with ancient elven texts taken from the archive room, including the journals mentioned by the captive elf. She also has several maps of the cave systems that connect to the tower basement as well as a very rough map of northern Avistan marked with the location of the Worldwound and multiple possible routes to get there. In addition, she carries a heavy book of her own making filled with logs of hundreds of autopsies. Each page is covered in detailed anatomical drawings, many of humanoids, with copious notes on the subjects’ injuries including times and causes of death.

Also, to create a good map of the tower someone make a Knowledge (engineering) check.

Is an untrained aid on K(engineering) a viable option on this check?

Normally I don't allow aids on knowledges since it's supposed to represent something you know, but since this is to make a map I'll allow it. Also, your secondary success may or may depend on it.

Osric slowly catches his breath as the demon slips out of existence. He leans heavily on his axe for a moment and then fetches his bow.

He returns to the group.

"Well fought friends! I'm honored to have served beside you. As for map-making, it's not something I'm skilled at, but I'll do my best to help. I suppose the Society needs to know all that it can about this place."

Know Engineering, untrained Aid: 1d20 ⇒ 11

Aid: 1d20 ⇒ 16 +3 to aid Flinders

"It has been my honor. I am very sad this cruel woman claimed so many before we found her."

Oh! The pressure, I can't take it!

Flinders tries to steady his hand from the trembling, still feeling the adrenaline coursing through his veins. He puts quill to parchment and begins to scrawl a map.

KN: engineering w/ aids & luck: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 9 + 2 + 3 + 2 = 23

Folio Reroll: KN: engineering w/ aids & luck: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 9 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 3 = 31

Flinders makes an excellent map to take back to the Pathfinder Vaults! It will be talked about for ages as the most excellent and exact map of the area.

Woo!

With Inexora’s band of drow defeated, the Velashu Uplands become slightly safer to travel, and the Pathfinder Society is able to study the ruin in relative peace and quiet. Recovering the journals of the tower’s architect gives the Pathfinder Society greater insight into pre-Earthfall elven culture, magic, and architecture; however, not all of your discoveries are cause for celebration. In particular, Sheila Heidmarch finds the drow’s obsession with the Worldwound deeply concerning, and she remarks that the matter requires further attention from the society. And Season 5 lead-in!

"We had a close shave with those spores. Lots of good stories to tell about this mission." Owai says with a wink.
