Ragnar Deathspeaker |
Ragnar grunts, nods and starts moving forward, picking up speed like a charging bull.
Moving forward 20 feet the first round, then sprinting 80' the second.
Tulo, Ragnar's Eye |
Tulo flapped into the air with a faint squawk, trailing after Ragnar.
"How about a little warning next time?"
The raven flapped into the air toward the guards, attempting to get their attention turned away from the group.
Fly past the tower and then up on the other side, making noise, trying to get them to look away from the group's approach.
Elen Emerwen |
Elen nudges Droviz, and starts heading towards the wall. "I can probably cause one to fall asleep. Have you weapons to take out the others?" she asks Droviz and Krystae.
Droviz |
"Is no one with more magical skill going to look at the place?" Droviz protests. "As for making them fall asleep - only euphemistically."
Krystae Stormcrow |
Krystae spots Ragnar take off at a run... "Whatever you do, best do it quickly!" She points at Ragnar's moving form.
Keolin Portara |
Please level up to level 3. Sorry I meant to mention that before. Roll20 is updated.
Ragnar slams into the icy wall covered in glyphs at high speed, crushing the ice and creating a large hole in the wall. He sends shards of ice everywhere.
Cold damage to Ragnar from crashing through the magical barrier: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
The runes seem to coalesce around the barrier, and an icy wind blows through the opening. On the other side is a portcullis-like framework of icicles, blocking your path further into the tower.
Through the portcullis, you see the following:
A massive ice sculpture of a dragon dominates this open courtyard, standing with raised wings upon a dais of solid ice. Seven squat shacks sit along the inner wall, with several dogsleds stored outside. Between them, four ice chutes descend from the battlements of the outer wall. To the west, large double doors studded with icicles lead inside the Pale Tower itself, just beneath an overhang of sharp icicles dangling from above.
save vs slumber: 1d20 ⇒ 3
Ragnar's bird distracts the guards, and one of them falls asleep suddenly. You have all arrived at the gate and are standing next to the hole in the wall made by Ragnar.
Droviz |
Sunder 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14 for 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
"We do NOT have time for this! Anyone got alchemist fire handy?" Droviz asks.
Unless anyone answers in the affirmative, Droviz takes out his hammer and bashes the portcullis as best he can.
Krystae Stormcrow |
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20 To see if any magical spell effects are active...
Krystae keeps an eye on the guards above while Havelock and Droviz deal with the portcullis. She puts an arrow to her string and prepares to fire upon the first guard who spots them. "Hurry up and get up to them!"
Ragnar Deathspeaker |
Ragnar grunted, shocked at how biting the cold was.
Cold resist 2 drops the damage to 10. Currently at 18/33. Not a great place to start a fight at.
He knew he was exposed so he kept moving, hitting heading for the frozen Porticulis with the same bull-headed mentality that had made the hole in the outer wall.
Lets try that smashy thing again.
Keolin Portara |
Havelock's bomb explodes, soundly destroying the portcullis just as Ragnar comes flying through where it used to be. The guards outside do not seem to notice you at the moment.
Unfortunately, however, an ice troll appears from one of the tents with an axe in hand, and charges Ragnar as he runs into the room, slamming her axe into Ragnar's side.
axe attack, charge: 1d20 + 2 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 2 + 7 = 22
damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 1) + 4 = 6
Roll20 will be updated in a moment.
Ragnar Deathspeaker |
12/33
Ragnar bellowed, stepping back to deliver a powerful thrust of his spear.
Rage, 5' adjust back to Spear range.
Attack, Rage, Power Attack, Indomitable Stance: 1d20 + 10 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 10 - 1 + 1 = 18
Damage: 1d8 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 12 + 1 = 20
6 Temp HP from Rage
Elen Emerwen |
Elen moves forward and focuses her ill will on the troll, impairing his attacks.
Evil eye on the troll, -2 on attacks. 8 rounds, or 1 if he makes a DC 16 will save.
Droviz |
Droviz charges up and skids to a halt, preferably behind the troll so he can pin it in a flank between himself and Ragnar. If a flank is impossible, he just swings with all the power he can muster.
Flanking attack 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 2 = 13 for 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 4) + 3 = 11 damage. If no flank, please subtract the +2.
Keolin Portara |
save vs Evil Eye: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
Ragnar's spear goes through the troll's gut and out the other side. As Ragnar pulls his spear free, he sees the wound immediately start to close and heal before his eyes.
attack on Ragnar: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Droviz's attack misses. The wound seems to disorient the troll a bit, and her axe feebly swings at Ragnar.
Krystae Stormcrow |
Not sure if Krystae would be able to get an attack in this round or not, since she hasn't acted; however, Keolin feel free to fit the following actions in whenever is appropriate.
Krystae sees the ice troll and sighs a little. She quickly shifts her aim towards the massive creature and lets her arrow fly!
Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 6 + 1 - 1 = 15
Damage: 1d8 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 2 + 1 = 7
Havelock Iacton |
Havelock moves forward, drawing his precious hand-and-a-half sword as he moves, and as he ducks under the troll's swing (and Ragnar's) he strikes at the beast.
Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
Damage: 1d10 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8
Elen Emerwen |
Knowledge(local): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18
Elen calls down another bit of ill luck on the troll, and if it takes hold, lets out an eldritch laugh that strengthens her hexes. Misfortune, DC 16 Will save. Cackle to extend both hexes by 1 round.
Ragnar Deathspeaker |
Ragnar bellowed and struck again.
Rage Power Attack: 1d20 + 10 - 1 ⇒ (10) + 10 - 1 = 19
Damage: 1d8 + 12 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 12 + 3 = 22
Rage 3/6
Droviz |
"Will you just DIE, you ruddy Troll!" Droviz shouts as he lashes out again.
Attack 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 2 = 10 for 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 1) + 3 = 7 damage.
... Bluhh. =_=
Keolin Portara |
Krystae's arrow goes high and glances off the statue in the middle of the room. The troll easily avoids Havelock's feeble swing and jumps out of the way of Droviz's attack. Unfortunately Ragnar anticipates the jump and drives his spear through the chest of the troll. Undeterred, with Ragnar's spear still through her chest, the troll swings her axe again at Ragnar, but is off-balance by being shish-kebabed and misses. Ragnar pulls his spear free.
Save vs Misfortune: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Attack on Ragnar: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
Second roll for Misfortune: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Elen Emerwen |
Does Elen know about the way fire affects trolls?
-Posted with Wayfinder
Droviz |
Droviz, still committed to the fight, lays into the troll with both greatsword and shield. While the sword misses again, the masked warrior finally manages to connect with his less orthodox weapon...!
Two-weapon fighting, sword-and-shield combo. Greatsword attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9. Whiff. =_= Shield attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21 for 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5. Crit threat! Rolling to confirm: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7 =_= Whiff...
Ragnar Deathspeaker |
Still roaring, Ragnar thrust again.
Power Attack, Rage: 1d20 + 10 - 1 ⇒ (19) + 10 - 1 = 28
Damage: 1d8 + 12 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 12 + 3 = 16
Rage 2/6
Krystae Stormcrow |
Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 1 - 1 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 2 + 1 = 5
Krystae continues firing at the troll, in hopes that she can at least aid Ragnar, Havelock, and Droviz a little!
Keolin Portara |
The troll finally falls after Droviz hits the beast in the back and Ragnar drives his spear through the troll's throat. As it lays on the ground, the wound on its throat immediately closes and heals. It remains unmoving on the ground.
Trolls regenerate and cannot be killed permanently without fire or acid being employed.
Krystae Stormcrow |
Krystae grabs another arrow and trains it on the troll's body. "Professor, I believe that is your specialty."
Ragnar Deathspeaker |
Ragnar takes a step back, huffing and badly wounded, but he didn't stop menacing the troll when he saw the wound close.
Fatigued 6 rounds
Elen Emerwen |
"Well done, Havelock! Is anyone hurt?"
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
Ragnar Deathspeaker |
Ragnar sucks up the first three of those CLWs. He was pretty bad off.
HP back to full
Any gear on the troll?
Ragnar gave Elen a solem thank you in his naive tongue as the healing energies washed over him.
He'd slain a troll. He stared down at the pile of ash as a slow grin spread over his panting face.
Droviz |
"We need to keep moving," Droviz says in an urgent tone. "This is a courtyard. We mince around out here after all that noise, archers are gonna come up on the walls and shoot us full of bolts!"
Krystae Stormcrow |
Krystae immediately begins looking around after the troll falls. "I am uninjured and Droviz is right, we need to keep moving now. Let us quickly check the area and move out."
Keolin Portara |
The entire tower exudes a magical aura. You find the troll's stash of gold in the kennel to the southeast, totaling 500 gp.
You step forward through the arch, under some icicles.
Steamy air fills this inner gallery, emanating in lazy wisps from a bubbling pool recessed into the floor of a raised dais surrounded by six pillars of ice. Four foggy mirrors hang from the walls near ice sculptures of helmeted pike-wielding warriors.
Roll20 will be updated shortly.
Krystae Stormcrow |
Krystae looks around in awe at beautiful room, but then looks at her comrades when she does not spot any means of moving higher into the tower. "Where do we go from here?"
Ragnar Deathspeaker |
"Pretty." Ragnar said with a small smile. He wanted to go look closer at the statues, but when Drovitz mentioned a trap, he waited.
Droviz |
Droviz will bring up the rear, watching out for pursuit.
"Be ready for attack as soon as we arrive - every time we use these things," he warns the others.
