[PFS/DMK] 6-10 The Wounded Wisp - Table I (Inactive)

Game Master Kludde

Laetshi tags the elf, and a stream of elven blood hits the floor, while her companion move into the main hall.

The dwarf is surrounded by an illusory double, and moves to the middle of the room, drawing dark, necromantic energy

Channel Negative: 1d6 ⇒ 5 DC 10 Will for half, Laetshi, Zlata and Taelbin are affected

Another Round another Perception

Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

Asterion moves to the right of the room looking to get a clear run at the Dwarf.

Kesuraman rushes forward, pulling a heavy clay flask from his belt as he moves and tossing it at the dwarf.

Move action to get into room, then toss bomb. 1/5 bombs used.

Bomb (vs Touch AC), cover, range: 1d20 + 5 - 4 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 5 - 4 - 2 = 13
Bomb damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 splash damage = 5, DC 14 Reflex for half

Image, 1 hits dwarf: 1d2 ⇒ 1

If he has moved into the room and doesn't have cover, please add 4 to the attack roll.

Asterion puts himself in the right position, while Kesuraman tosses a bomb at the short-stacked enemy, that explodes right in his face.

Out from behind the pillars, a halfling comes out of hiding and tries to stab Zlata in the back.

Rapier, Zlata (vs FF): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 151d4 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + (5) = 6

The elf takes a step back and loosens an arrow at Zlata, but misses.

Longbow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

Surprised, Zlata turns and retaliates against the halfling.

Scythe: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 5 + 1 = 25 for: 2d4 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (2, 3) + 4 + 1 = 10

The follow-through of her swing bringing her back to face toward the elf, she concentrates for moment, trying to discern his intent. Detect evil on the elf.

Seeing the Halfling take the cheap shot against Zlata, Amelia comes forward into the room and sends her Elven Curved Blade across the room using her Hand of the Apprentice
Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
Damage: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
8 uses left

Zlata, unfond of surprises, turns around and cuts down the halfling with a single stroke, killing the halfling before Amelia's blade can connect.

Since Zlata got there first, can we change my target to the dwarf?

Taelbin stalks up toward the dwarf, sidestepping outside of his reach just before darting back in. His eyes seem to have gone out of focus as he swings his dueling blade at the dwarf.

Move up and around to avoid AoO, then swift to activate my bloodline (+1 dc to cast defensively when threatened by me). Then attack.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

Laetshi reloads her pistol, then leans out from behind the pillar and levels another shot at the elf.

Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18
Damage (w/Focused Aim): 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 Remaining Grit(s?): 3/5

Go Laetshi!!!

My apologies, I just remembered that I have to spend grit to make touch attacks at this range so I'm actually down to 1/5 and that attack should be at a -2.

Amelia hits the dwarf with her curved blade, cuts the dwarf across the cheek, strands of beard falling down. Behind her, a well-aimed shot takes down the elf.

1 for real dwarf: 1d2 ⇒ 1

Taelbin moves around and cuts down at the dwarf, and much to his own surprise, strikes a hit. Unfortunately for him, the hit is on the illusory double, that winks out of existence.

1 for real: 1d2 ⇒ 2

The dwarf is determined to go out in a blaze of glory: he steps toward Aterion, and channels a spherical wave of dark energy

Negative Energy: 1d6 ⇒ 1 Everyone except Kesuraman is in range, roll DC 10 will for half damage

Studied target dwarf
attack elven curved blade: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 91d10 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Will save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7 But don't we take a minimum of 1 damage regardless?

Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Zlata moves towards the dwarf, calls on the power of Erastil to assist her, and slashes with her scythe once more.

Swift Action: Smite evil: if the opponent is evil, add +2 to the attack and damage rolls below

Scythe: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 4 + 2 = 14 for: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (1, 2) + 4 = 7

Will Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
Feealing the dark energy roil around her, Amelia will stands her ground, sending her blade at the dwarf again Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Damage: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

If the dwarf is still up after all those mediocre attack rolls:

Moving closer, Kesuraman grits his teeth in frustration that they haven't managed to bring down this one opponent and tosses another thick-walled clay flask at the dwarf.

Bomb (vs Touch AC), PBS, in melee: 1d20 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (19) + 6 - 4 = 21
Bomb damage, PBS: 1d6 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 1 = 6 splash damage = 5, DC 14 Reflex for half

Sorry about the splash damage, gang, the hazard of a low-level alchemist in the party...

Use your crossbow... causing more damage to us than them will get your next team killed. Look to getting the selective squares hit feat

Reflexes: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22

Bloody typical.. now I roll a 20

It's six against one for the dwarf: Zlata is the first to cut the dwarf, so is barely standing with a deep gash across his chest. Laetshi and Amelia both miss, so it all falls on Kesuraman, who decides that the only way to be sure is to throw a bomb from afar. When the smoke clears, the dwarf lies dead.

Combat over

After surviving the ambush, the PCs are able to leave the Shrine of the Failed and deliver Eylysia’s cache to the Grand Lodge. The crowd gathered around the Starstone Cathedral has disbanded, and many of the locals are still horrified following Sir Reinhart’s attempt to vault the chasm on horseback, which ended with a fall into oblivion.

At the Grand Lodge, Drangle is there in person to thank the investigators for recovering the package This is an important find, and you have done well in recovering it. I'm sure you have a bright future ahead of you in the Society. Expect new assignments soon!

A few days later, a message from none other than Ambrus Valsin arrives, explaining early results of the research on the papers. (See Handout)

Thank you for running this, Kludde! It was quick, but amusing. I enjoyed it.

Asterion - if you look back over the gameplay thread, you'll notice the many times I did not throw a bomb in order to avoid splash damage. I did it this time because I expected it to be my very last action in the scenario, and not likely to take down anyone in the party. My archetype gives me the Precise Bombs discovery at 2nd level, so I won't need to take a feat to avoid such situations in the future.

DMK - thanks as always for running a fun game!

I figured that, that's why I said "your next team killed"

Thanks DMK

Thanks for the game. I'll definitely be putting my name back in for another game.

Thanks, DMK!
