[PFS - CORE] The Godsmouth Heresy - Table 2 (Inactive)

Game Master Yiroep

Ray falls to hit hands and knees and tries to find his way out of the dark.

Laeowynne, unfortunately I didn't hear you do that defensively, so...
Laeowynne tries to cast a defensive spell, but little did he know that a creature was right next to him!
Slam Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16
Slam Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4
Grab Attempt: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
Constrict: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Yeouch! 9 damage total, and you're grabbed. Gonna be a lot of concentration checks to keep the spell too. DC 15 (from slam damage), DC 16 (from constrict damage), and DC 16 (from now being grappled)

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Valeros stumbles around and makes his way out of the dark.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Ray crawls his way around. (1 is up, then clockwise)Direction: 1d8 ⇒ 8 He sees Valeros out of the darkness!

Tyranius' eyes go wide at the sight. There is a halfling sized bat-like creature that just flew right past me. It has wrapped itself around Tanna. She needs help! It is roughly 10 feet south of me next to Laeowynne.

Tyranius hurls his hands towards the creature as he slowly steps to the side to get a better shot at it. The static in the stagnant air rushes to his hands and he releases a small pulse of static electricity at the creature.

Lightning Arc RTA: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
Damage (Electricity): 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Tyranius zaps the creature!

Tanna gasps as she is hit, "Damnú air! 'av been attacked from abov'! Check the ceilings!"

She then casts light on her buckler to add a little magical light on the situation.

I dont play too many casters- still a learning process for me. I actually thought I would fail one of those three checks...

there is something above Tanna and one of them has me in its grasp!!! Laeowynne gasps out...

currently 1/10 hit points

Tanna casts light on her shield, however her light does not penetrate the darkness here. Seems the darkness is too powerful for an orison.
No attacks of opportunity. It is grappling something. :p

Sorry. Got distracted by sleep.

Tyranius' eyes go wide at the sight. There is a halfling sized bat-like creature that just flew right past me. It has wrapped itself around Tanna. She needs help! It is roughly 10 feet south of me next to Laeowynne.

"And where, might I ask, are you? Which one was Laeowynne?" Creat tries to remember roughly where everyone was standing. He hears the frackus beside him. He hears and feels that his torch is on but just now on the fritz.

Tanna gasps as she is hit, "Damnú air! 'av been attacked from abov'! Check the ceilings!"

there is something above Tanna and one of them has me in its grasp!!! Laeowynne gasps out...

Then he tries to remember how tall everyone is.... This wouldn't be the best time for size-blindness.

50% miss chance: 1d100 ⇒ 12 mwk rapier (the space above Tanna's head): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 miss

"Try and pull it down!"

Creat tries to swing at it, but misses.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Blue's Turn
The creature releases it grapple on Laeowynne and moves somewhere. Going after Tyranius

The Darkness has moved. At this point, you can kind of guess where it is based on where the darkness is moving and Tyranius shouting, so I placed it on the map. (Will become a lot harder should Tyranius fall)

Still 50% miss chance on attacks and can't target with targeted spell, although area spells would work.

Tyranius slashes at the bat-like creature as it flies right for him.

Falchion: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

....and horribly misses as the beast slams into him.
Tyranius reaches down and grasps his medallion, releasinga wave of healing about the small room.

Selective Channel Pos Energy (Not the bat): 2d6 ⇒ (1, 1) = 2

It is on me! Do whatever you have to do to kill this beast

Laeowynne falls to the ground after being let go and tries to crawl away from the danger back to the door...

Laeowynne falls to the ground after being let go and tries to crawl away from the danger back to the door...

Well you just got two hit points back and still have the potion the Asthmatics gave you. ;)

"That's it just keep screaming like a little kid and we'll find you!" I hope. "Tanna, is there still something on your head?"

perception (as a move action): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16 General/precise to a 5-foot square knowledge of where the noise is coming from?

"Not at the moment, bu' I can no see a damn thing!"

After hearing Laeowynne's screams, and her own, Tanna sends a wave of positive energy, finishing her own healing and hopefully damaging the evil creature.

Channel positive energy: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Creat, yes, at this point I put it on the map as you can hear where Tyranius is yelling from. It's over him, so you don't have to spend a move action to know where it is.

Tanna, as a note, you can't both heal and harm at the same time when you channel. Are you looking to heal? I'm going to go on that assumption. In that case, the enemy is getting healed as well, and Tyranius is pointing that out to you. So at the very least you know it's NOT undead.

Will update when I can. My mother had an ER visit and I'm suffering from bad allergies right now heh.

Tyranius channels excluding the creature. Everyone heals 2.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Laeowynne scrambles away some.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Tanna channels healing everyone. Tyranius informs her that it is healing the enemy too. Everyone heals 3.

"Dammit! Sorry, but I said not to move."

Move Action: Pull out acid flask

Valeros works on pulling out a vial of acid then attempts to discern where whatever is grabbing the party members, based on screaming and conversation.

Perception: 1d20 ⇒ 11

Standard Action, Attempt Perception check

Creat moves up and tries to hit it, but his aim was slightly off.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Valeros takes out an acid flask and tries to pinpoint the location. Unfortunately, that DC starts at 20+. Pinpointing is hard at low levels.

Move Action: Pull out acid flask

Valeros works on pulling out a vial of acid then attempts to discern where whatever is grabbing the party members, based on screaming and conversation.

[dice=Perception]1d20

Standard Action, Attempt Perception check

I'm gonna let you throw the flask at the square if you'd like. The directions from Tyranius is helping a lot to mitigate having to pinpoint the enemy.

The mercenary's had better ideas, that's for sure, but right now he's really out of options.

"COVER YOUR EYES!"

He lets the vial of acid fly at the general location of the screaming.

Ranged touch(vs. square where the thing is at, into combat): 1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 3 - 4 = 17

Damage(splashing the square): 1 = 1

Ray takes a shot and gets a lucky hit on the creature! It screeches in pain!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Valeros throws an acid flask where it is, and it hits the target! 1 damage to Tyranius, Creat, and the enemy

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Blue's Turn
Since it already has someone it its grasp, it tries to pin the target!
Grapple Check (Maintain Bonus): 1d20 + 5 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 + 5 = 30 Wow, at least the grapple can't crit...
Constrict Damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Tyranius is pinned underneath it! 7 damage to Tyranius.

Hearing the scream, Ray points his finger at the darkness again. "Pew!Pew!" He casts a ray of enfeeblement.

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
50% Miss chance: 1d100 ⇒ 62
Strength drain: 1d6 ⇒ 2 Fort Save vs DC 16 for 1/2

Maybe I can drain him enough to reduce those grapple and constrict numbers!

The mercenary's had better ideas, that's for sure, but right now he's really out of options.

"COVER YOUR EYES!"

He lets the vial of acid fly at the general location of the screaming.

Cover my eyes? From what? "HEY! WHO THE HELL'S SIDE ARE YOU ON!" Bastard must be jealous of the thing I've got going with Tanna.

50% miss chance: 1d100 ⇒ 29 rapier (v grappled thingy): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 Whew! Good thing I'm getting these terrible rolls out of my system now huh?

Ray saps its energy with a ray of strength sucking energy.
Fort Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23 Goodness! That dice roller is going crazy for this one.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Creat tries to hit, but no luck!

Tanna strains her senses to locate the creature in the darkness...

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
But she is not confident enough in her skills to take a swing with her warhammer...

Tyranius struggles against the creature as it squeezes the life from him. Though he is staggered and nearly falls unconscious he somehow seems to remain standing for the moment. His orcish blood fighting everything unnatural about it.

Activate orc ferocity

CMB to escape Pinned condition: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19

He takes one final slash with his falchion at the creature before he falls unconscious to the ground.

Falchion: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15
Damage: 2d4 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7

Tyranius, breaking away from a pin is a standard action (and since you are disabled (i.e. 0 HP) will bring you to -1 HP), so if you stayed up with orc ferocity, you wouldn't be able to take a swing at the thing. Just confirming this is what you want to do.

Laeowynne stands and tries to focus on the location of the foe...

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

he sends an acid dart to where he thinks the creature is...
50% miss chance, high is lucky: 1d100 ⇒ 73

Acid Dart vs touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4...DMG: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 and he missed...

oh crap yes, you are correct. I will stick with what I did and simply go unconcious at the end of the round.

Tanna tries to find where it is find isn't confident.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Laeowynne shoots an acid dart, but flubs the direction.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Tyranius escapes the pin, but goes unconscious.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Valeros, right now you know it hasn't moved from where it was.

Valeros takes a shot at the creature and knocks it out of the sky.

Just to recap the room you're in.
Old carvings cover the walls of this square chamber, thick with dust and cobwebs. Three sets of stone double doors stand in the three facing walls. Heavy bronze seals emblazoned with the symbol of Pharasma secure the doors against whatever lies beyond.

All the stone doors don't seem to have a lock, but all three sets of doors are sealed by some kind of mystic energy.

On inspecting the carvings (Remember, if you don't have a rank in a knowledge skill, you can't make above a 10 on it):

Arcana: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22

History: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13

"Someone should look after Tyranius... I think he is hurt..." Laeowynne says while walking over to the fallen creature...

" I believe this is a Darkmantle... I read about them in a book...They are fairly small in size and grab hold of their prey...they can see in complete darkness and can crate that darkness themselves... we were luck."

He looks around the walls and says...
"It appears these carvings reference the seven runelords of ancient Thassilon. These runelords were powerful wizards each tied to a deadly sin who constantly vied for power, and who each possessed their own relic weapon to aid them. Nasty people if I remember correctly....I am not quite sure what this part means...anyone...?"

Well fortunately we brought a cleric along with us this time. He nods to Tanna now that he can see her. "Sorry if that was you I was groping at in the dark there. Honestly I was just trying to find the cephalopod."

perception (+1 more for traps): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

"Ah just like old times. Remember the giant skunk Ray? And that crazy bard with the big two-handed weapon who we kept having to wait around for so he could regain consciousness. Good times."

Tanna produces her most prized possession, a thin but sturdy wand, and approaches the prone Tyranius...

Wand CLW Tyranius: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Wand CLW Tyranius: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Wand CLW Tyranius: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Wand CLW Tyranius: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

and with her fourth touch restores the Orc to full strength. She then approaches the elf, and taps him for good measure.

Wand CLW Laeowynne: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

As for Creat, she looks in her satchel and tosses him a fresh bandage and shrugs.

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23

Listening to Laeowynne, she looks at the dusty wall and brushes away the dirt, fully uncovering some newer carvings, she reads, "My heart beats on the wrong side of my chest, or is it right? Is left right, or is it wrong? I don’t know what it means, or why."

Tyranius sits up. This is why I like the outdoors more..... He sheathes his falchion.

Such an odd inscription. Tyranius looks about at the magically sealed doors. Anyone have an idea how to open these or should we use the bell?

"Ah yes thank you for that Tanna... and also for pointing out the writing... very strange. If we cannot figure out the door normally then we should use the bell"

Creat looks at the bandage. "It's an--*ahem* friendly fire--acid burn. I would think that would be worth a small hard candy."

About the door and the chime.

"I don't mind using it when we have to but to be honest I would expect places like this to be full of secret hidey holes and passages so maybe after we open up an area up we look around real hard first before we go reaching for the magic gong again. Let's not make this a gong show, capish?"

Tanna looks hard for any secret Doors, passages, levers, switches, buttons, pressure plates, etc!

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

"Did you find anything of use Tanna?" Laeowynne asks.

Creat takes his time and looks about. Take 20 for 25 (26 for traps).

I'm back!

Creat looks at the doors. He doesn't see any traps, but it looks like there's some sort of magical seal barring from entering. As he is a rogue... He feels this magical barrier could be disrupted. IE Disable Device The chime could work as well.

Tell me which door you would like to try to open though, as each of them have a separate magical lock.

"Remember, the Chime only has 5 charges and we have only just begun... and we must save one chime to exit, don't forget!"

Tanna continues,[b]"I didn't detect any traps on any of the tree doors, East, North, or West... but that is truly not my talent."

GM, are all doors barred/ locked (either magically or otherwise)?

All sets of double doors are magically locked in this room. Will have to have a Disable Device check from someone with trapfinding or a use of the chime. No one has decided which way they want to try first though. :)

Laeowynne dusts himself off and adjusts his clothing after the fight. He listens to Tannas update and remarks "I do not do doors like these. It seems a bit...roguish and not scholarly. It does pose a problem though. We have 5 uses. We need to save one for an escape. Thus we can use the chimes four times."

No worries the master is here.

As there isn't a horrible time crunch, Creat takes like 150 on his Disable Device check for a total of like 160 on the northern-most set of doors.

"Wha-LAA!" Creat says in smug triumph. He lightly shoves on the door.

If folks are in a rush he takes 20 to get a pathetic 30 and complains about people rushing him and is noticeably grouchier when he attempts to open it.

Creat disrupts the magical barrier and opens the northern doors with ease.

Bodies wrapped in age-yellowed linens lie in alcoves lining both sides of this wide corridor. Thick cobwebs hang from the ceiling and drape the walls of the crypt; everything is coated in a deep layer of dust.

You see some spiders that look like they have skulls on them crawl out! They attack! Size: Tiny

Because these things are Tiny, you can walk through their squares.
