Senna Proviso |
"Whaddya mean girl?!" - the dwarf retorts, approaching the sorceress.
Senna makes a futile attempt to rub clear her burning eyes. "I don't wanna ruin the surprise." The sorcerer casts a spell that seems to have no effect.
Sorry, Tark. Senna isn't trying to be a pain but she isn't going to explain her idea in front of the drow.

Arial draws her bow and fires an arrow at the last remaining drow, while Kitt races towards her and leaps up, swiping at her feet.

Summary of Round 4:
Forgot Arial's damage from striking barbed drow 2 rounds ago
2d6 ⇒ (3, 4) = 7 to Arial
Tark double moved
Jaydavu punched himself in the face
Perb moved and cast fly on Tark
Senna cast fly on herself and flew up blind
Arial dropped his sword, drew his bow, and shot an arrow at the drow priestess...1d100 ⇒ 15...hit the false image and continued its trajectory
Kitty in vain tries to jump up at the priestess but needs a DC 60 to leap up 15 feet, which is impossible for the cat
Round 5: Drow attack!
The drow priestess smiles at the futility of the cat but worries as she sees the elven archer ready his bow. As a move action, another duplicate appears. She casts a spell and a bolt of white light flies from her hand toward the elf!
Ranged Touch attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
Damage: 4d8 ⇒ (3, 3, 6, 2) = 14
Arial at 8/59 hps
Players, please keep your character's current hit points in your posts so I don't have to go through all the posts calculating! (ARIAL!) :)
Cannot update map right now but here is a general sense. Arial and Jaydavu are adjacent to each other next to drow's dead body. Tark is adjacent to Perb further south. Kitty is leaping aimlessly under drow priestess. Senna is blind and flying away from priestess.
Jaydavu |
Confusion roll 1d100 ⇒ 81
Davu turns to Arial and attacks her, trying his best to punch her in the face. The Cnfusion spell had him all sorts of turned around.
Attack 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (18) + 14 = 32
Damage 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (1, 5) + 7 = 13
sadly, added plus one to attack and damage as both myself and Arial are on the ground. Hope I miss....
Jaydavu |
Wasnt sure the Pembly bonus would still be applied. Add two damage to the first attack, Arial.
Davu keeps punching and kicking the elf, until she stops moving, trying to make that threat stop!
Attack Two 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 14 + 1 + 2 = 36
Damage 2d6 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (3, 6) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 18
Attack three 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 1 + 2 = 15

Attack four 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 9 + 1 + 2 = 30
Damage 2d6 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2, 2) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 13
Hope these all miss, lol.
Tark Boulderbreaker |
Seeing the mayhem that suddenly seems to be falling upon the group, Tark growls - "Very well then. It be our turn now wench!" - then takes off like a rocket, heading straight towards the flying drow, aiming at blasting her with a mighty hammer swing.

Senna Proviso |
Using your roll for Arial as a model, high on the Miss % is good so I'll use that...
Vision returned, Senna mutters an arcane phrase and sails in a high arc, diving on the Drow and her doppleganger from above - making sure none of her allies is directly below. She guesses at which of the two figures is the real one and taps her foot against the drow's skull. A bolt of force hammers like a mallet, threatening to drive the woman into the ground.
Basic plan is to choose an attack angle that will (hopefully) drive the Drow into the ground right in the middle of the team to make her an easier target.

Will rp Kitty's action to move things along...and sorry, but the kitty just met Jaydavu and saw him takes its mistress so it will protect her fallen form.
Kitty growls, as she sees her mistress brought down by the monk! The cat charges the monk and bites at him!
Kitty charge: 1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 12 + 2 + 2 = 33
Damage: 1d6 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 2 = 10
Trip attempt: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23 vs. CMD 32...fails!
Seeing the confused monk take out the unsuspecting elf archer and now engaged with the leopard, the drow priestess smiles that she may have a chance at winning the battle after all.
Miss chance for Tark: 1d100 ⇒ 37...miss!
Tark's Longhammer hits the image and it disappears, leaving the drow priestess unharmed.
Drow Fort save vs. push: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15...fails!
She thanks Lloth for the dwarf's miss but Senna's force punch pushes her to the ground, damaging her in the process!
Arial stabilization check: 1d20 ⇒ 8 vs. DC 15...failure! Arial falls to -6 hps.
Round 6: Drow attack
The drow priestess snarls at Senna, invoking another image. She then casts a spell at Senna! Fort save please!
Summary:
Arial at -6 hps
Jaydavu took 10 points of damage from Kitty and no longer needs to roll, he will full attack Kitty on his turn!
Senna Fort save!
Jaydavu |
Sigh. Sorry kitty...
Davu tries to fend off the big cat.
Attack one 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 14 + 1 + 2 = 36
Damage 2d6 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2, 4) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 15

Damage 2d6 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (3, 6) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 18
Attack three 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 1 + 2 = 18
Damage 2d6 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (1, 3) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 13
Attack four 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 9 + 1 + 2 = 20
Damage 2d6 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (1, 2) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 12
Senna Proviso |
I'm a little confused about Davu. Doesn't he still get a chance to roll and determine his own action? If he rolled to behave normally, couldn't he realise that Kitt was just acting in defense of her packleader and let her attack pass? Just curious.
Drow_DM |
Does the Drow draw any AoOs for casting near the team? She asks hopefully. :D
Actually, Senna's force punch drove the drow priestess 20' back to the ground, where there is no one around when she casts so no need to cast defensively. As for whether Tark gets an AoO, from everything I saw on the message boards, no AoO for forced movement such as a push. By the way, Senna failed her Fort save and is now blind!
Kitty's attack on Jay:
Bite: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 12 + 2 = 17
Claw: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 12 + 2 = 23
Damage: 1d4 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 2 = 8
Claw: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 12 + 2 = 18
Perb and Tark and a blind Senna are up.
Tark Boulderbreaker |
Missing his mark, Tark snarls - "What the..? How many more of those have ye got?!" - and again launches himself at the drow, long hammer leading the way.
Longhammer charge: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (1) + 21 = 22
Damage if it hits: 2d6 + 23 ⇒ (5, 1) + 23 = 29
Current AC: 22 || Rage spent: 2/19
I usually let the GM roll miss chances. Let me know if I should do otherwise Drow_DM
Senna Proviso |
Ah, OK. I was trying to ground her near any teammates. I thought Perb might be in the neighborhood. If not, no problem. Sorry if I'm slow on the uptake on our positions, I tend to play games with copious map updates. Speaking of which a map update might be nice so folks can try to surround the priestess and pin her down.
Senna's irritation starts to bleed through, "We need to finish this b+%++... Get on her. I'll try to help Davu as soon as I can see him." She casts a spell on herself attempting to sweep aside the blinding magic.
Assuming that is good enough to dispel the blindness...
Senna descends to float 5' above the drow's head.

She is up first but, depending on the circumstances, trying to break the enchantment on you may be the safest best. Hopefully Arial will be conscious and able to bring some heat along with Tark and Perb to the Drow, freeing me up to either help out or try to get you back into the game. Given how hard you hit, I'd prefer if you were a loose cannon aimed in our direction. :)
Arial |
The channel puts me back on my feet (ok, the channel plus a move action) so I'm a fan. It also keeps Kitty alive.
With a sharp whistle, Arial catches the cat's attention, and the beast withdraws, dashing into the forest to the north. Presumably drawing the confused monk along with him.
The elf stands unsteadily and fires another arrow at the drow.
attack: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (16) + 18 = 34 damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Drow_DM |
Okay, Arial was dying and prone. He naturally dropped his bow to the ground when he fell. So this round, Arial can stand and grab his bow. No arrow. Arial, please keep track and post your hps in each post. You are currently at 13/59.
Summary of Round 7:
Jaydavu full attacked Kitty, hitting once for 15 damage
Perb channeled healing all for 19
Senna dispelled the blindness
Tark completely missed his attack
Arial stood up and picked up his bow, Kitty withdrew
Round 7: Drow Priestess
As a swift action, the priestess casts a spell, allowing her to move away from Tark and Senna without provoking attacks. Grace spell. She then moves 20' North, gives the elf a look of disgust, grasps her holy symbol, praises Lloth channeling negative energy, excluding the confused monk and hitting everyone else, except kitty.
Updated Map coming later today. For now, you can roll Will saves for half damage.
Jaydavu, since Kitty did not attack you last round, you may roll d100 to determine your action.
Jaydavu |
1d100 ⇒ 11
The monk growls, finally regaining a semblance of his senses, and throws two shuriken at the drow. "Get away from me, Arial. Not know what happening to me..."
Attack 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 2 = 15
Damage 1d2 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 2 = 9
Attack 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 8 + 2 = 28
Damage 1d2 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 5 + 2 = 8
Exactly how far is she from me, DM? I know shuriken have 10' range, so there will be a penalty you need to add in there, I'm pretty sure.
If there is still a miss chance. High is good.
Miss chance 1d100 ⇒ 57
Arial |
Forgive me, GM. I've always played drawing arrows as a free action. Are they somewhere nearby?
Senna Proviso |
Will Save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
I'm out of reach of the Drow so I wouldn't have had a chance to AoO her at all... but wouldn't her casting that spell within reach of Tark draw an AoO for casting? Or did she ace a concentration check?
Tark Boulderbreaker |
I think she moved away with the Grace spell Senna?
Tark has no more words to spare, his attention now focused on the combat and the need to take the drow down before she wrecks any more havoc amongst them.
With nothing more then a grunt of effort, he charges towards the drow again.
Longhammer Charge: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (6) + 21 = 27

Drow_DM |
Odds and ends:
Channel negative energy damage: 5d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 1, 5, 1) = 15
Still need Will save from Arial who is at 13/59
Perb took 15 damage
Tark took 7 damage
Senna took 7 damage
Drow priestess takes 8 damage from Jaydavu's shuriken
Miss chance for Tark: 1d100 ⇒ 77...his blow hits! The priestess looks severely wounded now.
If Arial makes Will save, he may act. Also need Senna's action for the round.
Senna Proviso |
Oops, sorry. I didn't realise you were waiting on me. Also, ya learn something new every day. I didn't realise that Swift spells didn't draw an AoO. I thought that was strictly limited Quickened ones.
Seeing that the drow was unsteady on her feet, Senna tries to put her down with an 'old reliable'. With a gesture she sends nearly a half dozen phantom projectiles streaking towards the woman.

The drow priestess's eyes go wide as she sees the energy missiles streaking toward her so she stretches her hands to try and resist the magic, but they blast through her body. She screams with each hit, as she falls to the ground dead.
Congrats! I assume no one goes near Jaydavu and a few rounds later, his confusion passes.
Jaydavu |
Once his right mind is returned, Jaydavu apologizes to the others. "I sorry. Drow got in my head. Made me think Ariel was bad. Does kittie hate Davu now? How did drows know we were coming?"
Senna Proviso |
Senna floats down the ground and hovers there. "Good question, Davu. It would be a hell of a coincidence if they just stumbled on us. All things considered..." Senna casts a spell and a thin layer of shimmering force appears around her.
Senna gladly accepts a single touch from the wand and then searches then carefully searches the drow priestess, scanning her with mystical sight.

"Hah" - Tark blurts out once the last drow goes down - "Layin' on the dirt suits ya well!"
"Fret none - these ones are always packin' deceitful magic to get'em outta trouble - not used to workin' for a livin, so they try ta lay it on others, even fer a scuffle" - he adds to his monastic companion.
"What about ya? Back up and runnin' lass?" - he questions Arial with concern, moving closer to inspect her fast mending wounds due to Perblentius divine powers - "Took some nasty hits from the wretches back there"
At Davu's words he nods - "Maybe one o'them still breathes, an' we could slap'em around for some answers? Not the caster though - if that one ain't bein' dead. I'll hammer her skull in meself!"
Jaydavu |
Davu looks at the bleeding drows, trying to see if any of them were still breathing. "Good idea to asks them questions. Have group been trapped, Davu wonders?"
