Thorn shakes his head a bit and decides to hit the streets himself. "I'll be back in between one and four hours."Gather Information:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17Disguise if needed:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
Retracing your steps through the city, you get a taste of different opinions on the Aspis.
Novaria comments that “The Consortium has been exploiting the people and the lands of the expanse for too long. We at House Cartahegn oppose their continued expansion and seek to rein in their excesses.”
Dunkel suggested talking to the innkeeper. His comments are that "the Consortium is the best thing that ever happened to this place. This used to just be a pirate hideaway, now it’s the center for trade in the region!
D'lack and Thorn each speak to general passers-by. The Bonuwat man D'lack speaks to denounces the Consortium, accusing them of, strangling our nation and our people, robbing us of our culture and selling it piece by piece to rich people in the north. If I didn’t need their money to feed my family, I’d have nothing to do with them.”
The Bekyar man Thorn meets is entirely more positive. "“They keep money and stable work owing through the area. I’ve never been able to eat as well as I have since I started working for them.”
Exiting Bloodcove is relatively easy, but less than a mile from the city the road leads to a narrow bridge crossing a small tributary of the Vanji River. On the other side of the bridge stands the Consortium agent, Na’alu, accompanied by a strange, artificial looking humanoid, and a half-orc man. “I’ll be taking those documents back now.” he says smugly, “My employer would very much like to know their contents.”
Knowing that there was no better time then now, Beorin moves towards Doubtful.
"May the light of Torag shield you from Physical Blows!" he incants as he clutches his holy symbol.
Cast shield of faith on Doubtful. +2 deflection bonus
Were they even looking for a fight? Sense Motive:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12. Too late now I suppose.
Doubtful scowls as the Aspis agent lay in wait for them on the way out of town. He was of course expecting all of it, and had mentioned it as they left (that and half a dozen other possible calamities)
(insert comment about even broken clocks being right twice a day)
As Beorin tosses a small protective blessing on him, he frowns, then suddenly rushes forward towards their new adversaries. He heads straight towards the half-orc, then leaps and jumps over top of him, past the others, to land on the far side!
Acrobatics to jump:1d20 + 21 ⇒ (9) + 21 = 30(edit: Will clear 7 feet, should get me over a medium critter!)
"Had enough of you Aspis a*+$%!#s." He growls. "Go back to your crappy town."
He then lashes out with one heavily-booted foot, aiming for a sensitive spot.
OK, use a ki point to add +4 to AC for the round, then 40' of movement, attempting to jump over top of the half-orc to land on the far side, then unarmed strike Na'alu with stunning fist. Cause jumping around looks awsome!
Unarmed Strike vs flat footed(?) Na'alu:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29, for 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 damage plus stun (DC 17 fort negates).
She's some sort of exotic Numerian construct known as a "robot." Anything else would require Engineering and the Technologist feat.
Thorn's blade meets an unnnatural amount of resistance as it connects with the woman, but forcing the blade through regardless yields a shower of sparks, as she collapses.
Fort:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
D'lack's ray goes wild, but Na'alu goes limp after Doubtful's punch, though his skin seems resistant to a significant amount of the damage. The Half-Orc spins back towards Doubtful, chopping twice in quick succession, but failing to connect.
Primary:1d20 + 14 ⇒ (6) + 14 = 20 Secondary:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20
Doubtful winces, as his foot seems to bounce of the man.
"Is like I'm kicking the bridge, not the man." He calls out unhappily.
Unsure what to do, but knowing punching walls isn't really his forte, he instead steps around to the man's right and reaches out and tries to grab him.
My average damage is 8 ... if he has DR, punching him seems a poor choice. So lets try to grapple him then! Use a ki point to keep his AC/CMD up.
Will wait for Thorn to go first, so he gets the flank/sneak option, then 5' step and go for the grab!
Doubtful grabs hold of Naa'lu, but Thorn's rapid slashes miss the half-orc. One of Wyatt's arrows hits the man, but only lightly wounds him. D'lack's ray doesn't meet the same resistance, and seems much more effective
Despite Doubtful's hold on Na'alu, the man is still able to manage the gestures necessary to cast a spell, as he tells Doubtful, "Your friend needs help. Tend to him!Suggestion DC 17

Nope, that's a hit. On the second one though, Thorn would use:
Absorb Blow: As an immediate action, whenever you take hit point damage from a single source (such as a dragon’s breath, a spell, or a weapon), you can expend one use of mythic power to reduce the damage you take from that source by 15 points (to a minimum of 0 points of damage taken). If you have another ability or effect that reduces damage (such as protection from energy), reduce the damage with the absorb blow ability before applying any other damage-reducing effects. For every 10 points of damage that this ability prevents, for 1 minute you gain DR 1/epic and 5 points of resistance against acid, cold, electricity, fire, and sonic damage. The DR and resistances stack with any other DR and resistances that you have.

Destiny of the Sands II. Which when I went to link to it, it's not listed. I have the physical sheet. Now I have a mystery on my hands as I used the character for all of it... I can take a picture of the chronicle if need be. So the reporting went to the wrong character for that scenario.
I have a copy of the scenario, but it looks to me like the boon is only valid for part three of that series.

Doh! Nice catch. That means unless I'm missing something, and I don't think I am, Thorn is currently beyond negative CON and dead. I have the prestige for a raise before scenario's end (raise and restoration)
Doubtful continues to struggle with the Aspis agent, as he tries to grab something to tie him up with.
Spend a Ki point on AC again Move action, retrieve some rope! (shoulda pulled out the rope last round! (forgot, oops) Standard, attempt to maintain the pin to tie him up with said rope.
You can make one of your feats the Mythic version f you need to.
Not sure if it'll help but here's the link: Toughness and Its Mythic Version
Beorin attempts to help his companions by channelling the divine power of his patron! Channel to heal 2d6 ⇒ (1, 6) = 7 , Hopefully I'll heal all of them without healing the enemy but unlikely.
Beorin, the only ones injured are Dunkel (and technically Thorn =))
You should be able to just tag them if you stand in the right spot (ie: not where you are).

Oh, hey.. good catch! For completing the Destiny of Sands arc, you get the one time use Mythic Legacy boon (its on the chronicle for Part III). It allows for you to turn one of your feats into the mythic version of it for one round.
The Mythic Version of Dodge... which allows as an immediate action... to add +10 to your AC against one attack. Then he could make the 2nd swing miss (and get 18 hps back)... or better yet, make the confirmation roll miss (and get 38 hps back)!

So, only if the GM allows, and I totally wouldn't begrudge him if he did, I *do* have the boon from part 3. (Honestly I never even looked at it as I was just flipping through chronicles in order and stopped when I thought I found one I thought would save me. Thorn would definitely use up that boon on dodge. He'd use it on the confirmation roll, but if not allowed, he'd use it on the second swing. Again, only if the GM allows.
But I don't like grappling! But you gave the guy Stoneskin!
Ooo... how about this...
Doubtful scowls at the last active enemy as he steps around him.
"All sorts a parasites in these Mwangi rivers." He says dolefully, as he lines up a kick an tries to boot him over the railing into the river.
5' step to line him up, use Ki point for AC, then Bull Rush (will provoke an AoO). Seems like I should be able to attach a stunning fist to this.. but alas.
Bull Rush!:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30
Hopefully he has heavy armor and sinks like a stone!
