Emraeal Briskfury |
Emraeal will move past Garen into the corner (provoking but I'll make an Acrobatics).
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Nope. Activating Arcane Strike along the way anyways.
He then swings his fancy new sword at the woman while keeping up his raging song!
Wyrmsmite (+2 dragonbane transformative longsword): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
damage: 1d8 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 5 + 2 = 15
Emraeal is clearly more used to his dagger.

The woman throws a bomb that smashes on Emraeal, burning him!

Pentosh- 36 damage
Emraeal Briskfury |
Em takes the bomb in stride as he backs away to allow Boris a fighting position. He then casts a spell to heal himself while continuing his raging chant.
clw: 1d8 + 5 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 5 = 16
GM Tektite |

Emraeal Briskfury |
"That is a good idea. Why don't you take the lead?"
I've already got a +1 chain shirt and someone else could probably make better use of the rest. The potions of gaseous form could be good in case of emergency.
Garen Crownguard |
"Because we may tell him that you talked to us anyway. I mean, it is not a complete lie. So you might as well tell us and you may survive this."
Intimidate!: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
Emraeal Briskfury |
Emraeal shakes his head. "You have been cooperative. You've won the right to keep your life, but don't try anything or we may change out minds."
Em then suggests, "Should we make our way to the third floor and collect this mirror then? It sounds like keeping it from Aeteperax would be useful."
GM Tektite |
Going back down the stairs, the party steps onto the second level in order to access the stairs leading to the west wing of the third floor. Going north leads to a kitchen. It appears to have been used recently, though the strange stains and smells don’t seem like they were created by preparing food. A cauldron of bubbling fluid sits atop a small fire burning in one of the fireplaces.
Leaving the kitchen and heading south, the party wends through a hall that turns north, then south again before opening into a library of sorts. The ceiling of this twenty-foot-high room is painted with a scene of scholars at study. A polished wooden statue of a woman sitting in the lotus position, eyes closed in meditation, hangs from the center of the ceiling on several lengths of thin twine so that it seems to levitate.
Squatting amid dozens of tattered books at the center of the north wall is a hulking beast, much larger, but similar to creatures that attacked the auction. It looks up as you enter and hisses angrily.
E: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
G: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15

Creature
Garen
Maffei
Emraeal
Shozole and Boris are up!
Shozole Ribole |
Shozole, in a land devoid of cover and hideyholes, formulates a plan akin to his nature. If the following is mechanically sound, Shozole will do the following:
Move 20 feet into the room
Ready to shoot at the wires in hopes of dropping the statue on the creature if it approaches him.
If that's not a valid strategy, Shozole will hide behind the corner they came from, because breath weapons hurt.
GM Tektite |
You can take a shot at the wires if you want. AC 20 sound good?
Boris rushes forward and puts a forearm into the creatures throat!
The creature bellows in anger and retaliates.
Falchion Attack vs Boris: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (5) + 16 = 21
Damage: 2d4 + 13 ⇒ (2, 1) + 13 = 16 plus1d4 ⇒ 4 nonlethal

Bite Attack vs Boris: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 And a DC 12 Fort Save on a hit or shaken.

Party up!
Emraeal Briskfury |
A classic this time:
"O! What are you doing,
And where are you going?
Your ponies need shoeing!
The river is flowing!
O! tra-la-la-lally
here down in the valley!"
Emraeal starts his raging chant and draws his sword as he moves into the room.
