PBP PFS Gameday #3 Prince of Augustana (Inactive)

Game Master Tyranius

"Excuse me...girl over here?" Adriana remarks, with a frown on her face as she prepares herself for combat.

Its not that I don't want to fight, its that charging into 5 of them is just asking to be flanked. Adriana is readying an action to strike when a thug walks up into her melee range.

no! We throw fire!!!!

Alch Fire: 1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 3 - 2 = 18
for: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Ishingka moves up and tosses a flask on the thug directly opposite her. "Catch fire," she says, her eyes reflecting the sudden flare of flame.

Thug to the east gets 1 point of fire damage too; unsure if thug to the west does--by RAW I think so, but who knows.

Z'hor'll will ready to use Hydraulic Push as a Trip when a bad guy gets to the square marked with a "z". This will use his daily racial use of the SLA.

trip: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

alistar draws a arrow and prepars to fire

sorry for not posting was sick....2 week old imitation crab can kill ya

Zoren moves forward and says "Let there be dark!" as darkness spreads around him. Object touched is himself, with a 20 ft radius around him. Circle is where the darkness spell is.

Adriana continues to prepare herself for the assault as Ishingka hurls a vial of alchemist's fire at the thugs. Fire erupts all around them.

Darkness erupts from within Zoren blanketing the entire entrance

Alistar prepares an arrow as Z'Hor'll prepares a spell when the enemies come closer.

The thugs move in with their spiked chains. How are we supposed to see in this crap! Both chains whirls through the darkness not striking anything near their target.

Spiked Chain vs Zoren AC 19: 1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 + 1 = 14
Spiked Chain vs Zoren AC 19: 1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 1 = 6

Randalan moves forward as he places his hands on the man wounded by the Alchemist's Fire.

Unfazed by the darkness, Adriana steps forward, swinging her blade in a glorious arc

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Damage: 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 3) + 6 = 12

That promptly finds its mark.

Oh my god, I had no idea that Oracles could do this much damage in close quarters.

Tactics blown by Zoren, Z'Hor'll will start to inspire courage again. +1/+1

Zoren strikes at the thug in front of him. Dagger: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15 if that hits Damage: 1d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 2 = 8 The second +2 is from Shadow Stabber, since the person he is attacking can't see him.

Adriana steps forward helping Zoren to completely block the entrance as she cleaves her greatsword through the man in front of her.

Zoren quickly slides his dagger into the other man's side causing his breathing to become raspy as Z'Hor'll sings an inspiring tune of victory.

for: 1d6 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 1 = 11

Ishingka wades through the blackness, squeezing past Zoren and entering her battle rage. Her claws sprout and rip through the thugs before her.

posting on the road. I'm not sure which thug is least injured--is it the diagonal one? Ishingka will get in front of Adriana and attack Thug 1 if possible. Better than drawing the hammer and Zoren giving them soft cover. :D I don't know if I draw an AoO as they can't see, but as a bloodrager, I don't care!

Seeing as it has been over 24 hours I will delay Alistar's action for now to move forward.

Ishingka moves past Adriana to get into position. The thug notices and whips his spiked chain at the woman. The chain strikes the wall with a clang. Ishingka retaliates by repeatedly clawing the man's face and dropping him to the ground

AoO spiked Chain: 1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 1 = 4

The two remaining thugs whip their chains at Ishingka. Both chains miss in the darkness.

Spiked Chain 1 vs Ishingka AC 15: 1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 + 1 = 13
Spiked Chain 1 vs Ishingka AC 15: 1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 1 = 5

Randalan continues to sing as he unfurls his whip attempting to disarm Zoren's blade. The whip wraps around Zoren's blade and yanks it to the ground.

Disarm vs CMD 13: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22
Miss chance low: 1d100 ⇒ 88

ENjoying herself slightly, Adriana swings again, trying to repeat the performance

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Damage: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (3, 5) + 7 = 15

Z'hor'll moves up while continuing his comedy routine (inspire courage). He then will use his SLA Hydraulic Push to trip Randalan.
trip: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 4 + 1 = 17

Zoren takes a step back and draws his morningstar.

Adriana claws at the darkness as Z'Hor'll uses his control over water to have a small stream of sewage reach out and drag Randalan to the ground.

Zoren steps back and draws his Morningstar.

Ishingka slashes at the thug next to her, snarling. bah, I can't 5' step on stairs.

intimidate: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

"Your death will be sweet," she hisses at the leader of the Wyverns.

Alistar shoots an arrow that clatters off of the sarcophagi

Ishingka's claws rip into another one of the thugs as Randalan begins to shake uncontrollably

The remaining thug slams his spiked chain at Ishingka but misses in the darkness.

Spiked Chain vs Ishingka AC 15: 1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 + 1 = 9

Randalan shakily stands to his feet as best as he can. Provoking AoO

Ishingka slashes at Randalan as he rises, but misses utterly. Unfazed, she attacks again.

Claw 1: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 1 = 8
for: 1d6 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 1 = 8

Preferring to finish things up, Adriana swipes out with her Greatsword at the final thug (if hes still alive, if not I'll 5 foot in and attack Randalan).

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Damage: 2d7 + 7 ⇒ (2, 7) + 7 = 16

Zoren walks forward and attacks the bad guy that is in front of him. Morningstar+IC+SS: 1d20 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 2 + 1 = 171d8 + 2 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 + 1 + 2 = 13

Adriana cleaves right through the final thug as Ishingka gets a claw deep into Randalan's chest.

Zoren steps forward and smashes his Morningstar into the bard's head, caving in the right side o his face causing him to collapse to the ground.

Combat over. These guys didn't stand a chance

Whooo, girl power!

I love it when darkness works to our advantage. :) After picking up his dagger, Zoren walks over to Randalan and kicks him. "That's for taking my dagger." He checks the bodies for anything useable, then says "So, shall we go and report that the deed is done?"

Ishingka, somewhat tired, takes a moment to clean her now regular sized nails. "The Almsman and his protected can breathe a little easier now. Yes, let's tell him."

She stretches her weary limbs mightily, joints cracking, and pulls out her hammer. "Just in case," she explains.

go darkness + darkvision team combo!

Zoren opens the secret door to which the Almsman's mask peers out from around the corner. He hastily thanks you for momentarily stopping the thugs and vagabonds that were trying to desecrate his sanctuary.

The Almsman digs through a sack producing 2 vials which he hands to Ishingka. These are 2 vials of oil of bless weapon for thanks in helping all of us. The Almsman also gives the party the directions to the Prince's dwelling. You must ravel east to the next branch and then go south. Look out for a mossy, overgrown door marked "Skytower" along the southern wall and you will be at his dwelling.

"Thank you, sir. Hopefully your troubles are over, and we'll be able to save the Prince's army."

"We are grateful for what you have done here, Almsman, and we humbly accept your gifts," says Ishingka, taking the vials and bending the knee rather gracefully.

Was that four rounds? Gotta mark down bloodrage...

It was three rounds

The Almsman’s directions lead to a heavy wooden door. A sign
on the door is partially obscured by grime and moss, and the
word “Skytower” is still barely legible.

"Friends, I think we are here. Let's make our way in, and find out what has happened here."

Because he is curious Z'hor'll cast Prestidigitation, and cleans off the door and the sign. He'll also go ahead and clean off his companions, if necessary.

Z'Hor'll opens the door to find a room that was once the basement of a building above, but the stairs in the far corner are now choked with charred rubble and seem to lead to a new stone foundation of the new building above. Odd furniture and knick-knacks of all description fill the remaining space, and strange winged effigies made of wood and broken pottery are arrayed in a bizarre diorama. The focal point of this display is a pair of chairs standing on different-sized piles of old crates like thrones on a dais. A charred and shriveled corpse dressed in rotting and burnt finery and wearing a tin crown is propped up in one of the chairs while the other, lower chair, sits vacant.

Alistar goes up to the corpse in the higher chair and notices thatthere is an inscription writing crudely on the tin crown. He spits o a rag and wipes the dirt off of the area that reads “Emperor Relios.”

Amidst the furniture is a desk with several log books and journals. Most of them detail the day-to-day transactions of the Emporium, but one is Relios’s personal journal. It details the goings on of many of his wealthy clients, as well as Relios’s personal life including the details of his ancestry and his son’s birth. One of the last ledgers mentions that Relios was falling on hard times and intended to sell his wayfinder back to the Pathfinder Society. The ledgers also show that Relios was selling a steady stream of yellowcap mushrooms to members of the pre-revolution high society in Augustana.

The next rooms are vaults lined with shelves thick
with growing yellowcap mushrooms.

As the group goes through the journals and overlooking the body Ishingka hears a shuffling sound coming from the back of the final vault

Map is above

what do I detect? :)

kn:nature: 1d20 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 1 = 9

"oh, this Relios was into some nasty business. Don't know what the mushrooms do, but they can't be good. At least we know who our 'Prince' is, now!"

"I would stay far away from them. Oi! Something in the back! Weapons out!"

Ishingka draws her hammer as she says this.

Hearing the sound, Zoren draws his morningstar just in case extra power is needed.

"No worries there, I always have my weapon out", Adriana says with a smile.

Z'hor'll doesn't draw, as he plans on casting instead.

As Ishingka peers around the back alcove she sees that someone has painted a portal on the wall. A large circle of swirling colorful patterns. On the floor lies an open and empty scroll case next to a slightly charred, blank piece of parchment.

Also in the room are three creatures with bloated frames, shuddering with each heaving step. Yet despite its shape it seems to have a quickness about it.

"Adriana!" Ishingka calls, somewhat concerned that the aasimar is thick in the fray.

She moves up and delivers a blow with her hammer to the nearest shuddering thing.

Lucerne Hammer: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 1 = 9
For: 1d12 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 1 = 17

Power Fail Attack!

alistar moves to the room drawing his short sword and readying for a opening to attack

Adriana does not know much about these creatures but still goes in with her greatsword, cleaving a large portion of the creature off causing it to slumpto the ground.

Ishingka swings her hammer at the creature but instead turns one of the shelves into splinters as they fly all about the room.

Z'Hor'll steps up beginning an inspiring speech of underwater heroics as he recognizes the creatures before him.

Alistar moves in drawing his weapon as he looks about defensively.
