[PFS] GM Lithrac's The Silver Mount Collection (#6-02) (Inactive)

Game Master Cyril Corbaz

I'm confused. Do I know that the 10' x 10' area is a trap? Did I activate it if it is to summon the robot? Either way...

F~%#ing hell. George pulls out a small round bulb of glass and liquid and throws it at the beast.

Bomb-RTA: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21
Fire Damage: 4d6 + 5 ⇒ (3, 6, 5, 4) + 5 = 23

He then steps back behind the wall.

With your Perception roll, you determined that entering that area would trigger the trap. You didn't trigger it, but the robot attacked you when it saw you spotted his trap.

The robot gets burned by the explosion, though its metal plates protect him well.

That's awesome. Also, that was a nice Bomb Damage roll...

Watch out! There is a trap in front of this door! George warns the party. I don't know what it does.

Tywin casts another grease spell under the robot while Graxus moves to the right, bringing him into a position to charge next round.
grease dc 14 on and behind the robot and I will move Graxes later tonight when I can interact with the map.

I think he's flying if the picture can be trusted.

Sorry, I forgot to mention this. Yes, he's flying in the air.

Seeing the explosion caused by George makes kalendir snap back to attention from examining the plant. he is amazed by the complexity of the flying creature and how many parts are moving at once on it.

The beam cuts a clean line through the room and kalendir brings his Longbow into his sights as he fires two arrows into the metal.

Not one of these again.

Arrow 1: 1d20 + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 19
Damage: 1d8 + 1 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 1 + 2 + 4 = 13

Arrow 2: 1d20 + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 16
Damage: 1d8 + 1 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 1 + 2 + 4 = 12

+1 Attack / Damage from point Blank Shot
Precise shot to eliminate -4 modifier for shooting into melee
-2 modifier for rapid shot to fire an extra arrow
Weapon Focus and Deadly Aim -2/+4
+1 Att Bless

Shahrazad opens her mouth but to all else no sound seems to come out. The robot, however, hears a piercing shriek!

DC 16 Fort save or staggered for 4 rounds.

Both of Kalendir's arrows find their way into the robot's circuitry, but fail to deal much damage.

Fort: 1d20 ⇒ 17
The machine appears to be unaffected by Shahrazad's shriek.

2. Sad Rock, George, Tywin, Professor F, Kalendir, Shahrazad

Sad's actions will depend on what he sees. How high is the creature off the ground? How high are the ceilings?

Sad looks at the flying metaljerk and ponders.

Round 1

Once again, with little he is certain he can provide against one of the mechanical machinations, the professor quickly reaches into his pajamas and tugs on his happy stick.

Luckily, a wand exits his pocket and he waves that a bit at the others.

"Oh ho, another blessing of Brigh. Don't get addicted to the power though, as tasty as it may be!"

Cast bless. 45 charges remain.

no spells then, just the movement. They both ready an attack should it come in melee with them.

The robot is approximately at 12-15 feet high.

Round 1, Group 3

Sad moves next to George, the bombadier, and takes total defense, trying to protect his fellow Pathfinder from the attacks of the flying robot.

"BZZZ Threat identified. Termination in progress."

The robot dives on George, and stops just before him, a little above the alchemist who damaged him. It whacks the tiefling with its metal fists, but misses.
Slam, higher ground: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 5 + 1 = 24

"Who wants to get closer?" Sharazad asks. "Grab on!"

She then blasts a note on her flute, the note becoming a physical force hanging in the air. She sweeps it over the heads of the rest of the party, offering for them to grab on so she can swoop them over to the flying machine.

solid note

Umm... I think you have it attacking me from behind a wall.

Kalendir's fires two arrows, denting the metal with a CLANG once again before the splinter all over the ground, adding more of a disastrous mess to the broken cabinet.

Arrow 1: 1d20 + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 26
Damage: 1d8 + 1 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 1 + 2 + 4 = 12

Arrow 2: 1d20 + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 18
Damage: 1d8 + 1 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 1 + 2 + 4 = 15

Round 2, Group 3

Sad moves 5' to his right as he draws his club. Getting used to fighting the metaljerks, Sad gets angry...or, to be more clear, his club gets angrier.

"Maybe it stand between us, Gee-orgy."

Cast Shillelagh.

Graxus moves him and Tywin to a flanking position as a charge seems to be unlikely in these tight corners with the trap as well.

lance: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 2 + 2 = 18
dmg: 1d6 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 1 = 10

greatsword: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 5 + 2 + 2 = 21
dmg: 2d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (5, 3) + 6 + 1 = 15

With the combined attacks of the pathfinders, the robot twitches as electricity arcs run along its metal body, and falls on the ground with a loud CLANG.

End combat... or not.

The Professor, venturing east, can see what is in the eastern wing. It was supposed to be last round since he moved there at that time, but I didn't want to have two fights at the same time. However, since it's simultaneous, we remain in initiative.

A gigantic reptilian beast is on display in the center of this expansive gallery, ferociously leering over the collection of taxidermied animals and monsters. Many exhibits have been smashed or torn apart, scattering limbs and sawdust across the basalt floor. A small door at the eastern end of the room is labeled “Private Events Only.”

Slowly, three gigantic masses of flesh moves from the shadows at the end of the room, getting closer to the professor.

Initiative: 1d20 - 3 ⇒ (15) - 3 = 12

Initiative - round 2 - bold may act!
1. Sad Rock, George, Tywin, Professor F
2. Masses of flesh
3. Kalendir, Shahrazad (both already acted for round 2)

Assuming the Professor alerts me to the presence of the enemies.

George will double move to the Professor's side. Mr. Chips will peak his head out of George's collar before gagging and making weird, but cute monkey sounds at the flesh things.

Assume Shahrazad will keep concentrating on her solid note for now. She will hover it over Sad and move him closer to the fray when she can.

The professor pauses at the sign and raises his eyebrows several times.

"Private events, is it?"

Squinting at the rising fleshy masses, the professor voices his suspicions.

"Martha? Is that you? Ruth??!?!"

Wiping sweat from his brow, the professor revisits some memories of his glory days of college some three centuries prior.

"Blessed Brigh, why do you deny me my fireball when I need it most?!"

With an outstretched hand, he lobs the next best thing at the one he presumes to most resemble "Agnes" (the one straight ahead).

Firebolt (ranged touch): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6 for 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

With his offensive efforts expended, the professor wheezes and steps back around the corner for whatever relative protection it can provide.

"Don't believe them Georgie! None of what they are about to say is true!"

Round 3, Group 3

Sad looks at the floating solid note, unsure what to make of it, nor knowing what it wants.

"Note thank you," Sad says as he double waddles towards the next confrontation.

Shah, you should give that thing a rest. teehee. 1...2!...2 puns!! mwha-hahahaha!

Moved on map.

@Sad: lol! If you want to grab on to it, my intention was to carry you to the fleshy things so you didn't have to waste several moves waddling over there.

The Professor's firebolt seems to hit and burn the amorphous creature!

The creatures slowly move forward, leaving a disgusting ichor in their wake, not unlike a snail's. The one that was burnt by the Professor's bolt extends an amorphous limb at George, and attempts to hit the tiefling. It misses, its revolting substance slipping on George's armor.
Slam: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

1. Sad Rock, George, Tywin, Professor F
2. Masses of flesh
3. Kalendir, Shahrazad

"Keep them there mortal. Death will come for them muahaha!

Graxus laughs as he moves just south of the archer and bard duo. Both him and Tywin ready their weapons for a charge.

nice blocking them in George

George will provoke as he throws a bomb at the rear corner of the one in his face, hoping to catch the other two in the blast.

Bomb-RTA: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19
Fire Damage: 4d6 + 5 ⇒ (1, 3, 4, 3) + 5 = 16 Splash Damage = 9; Rear two flesh things get Reflex Saves; DC 18 for half damage.

Having good AC and standing toe-to-toe isn't George's specialty, but it seems to be working right now...

AoO: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19

The slime is powerless to hit George as the tiefling lobs a bomb that scorches all three masses.
Ref: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (18) - 2 = 16
Ref: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (6) - 2 = 4

Initiative - round 3 - bold may act!
1. Sad Rock, George, Tywin, Professor F
2. Masses of flesh
3. Kalendir, Shahrazad

The professor peeks back around the corner and sees George blocking them in.

"Well uhh, looks like fire seems to work... "

The tiny gnome shakes his hands at the creature like he's trying to shake water drops from them.

"Huh, wha?? Did you hear that Brigh? DID YOU HEAR THAT?! MORE FIRE!"

Burning hands (Reflex DC15): 3d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 2) = 6

Shaped/created of course to avoid George.

Ref: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (13) - 2 = 11

The ooze is severely burnt by the Professor's flames. It slams back at George while the horrendous smell of burnt flesh fills the room! The two other masses are unable to move forward,
Slam: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21

Round 4, Group 3

Sad, using his free hand, pulls out a few shills of willow bark rubbing them on his arms while uttering words of natural power. Cast Barkskin 40 minutes.

Sad moves up directly behind George, ready to step into combat next round.

"Coming Gee-Orgy! Sad fight good but *not* monster!" Sad reassures George in case he was worried or confused about the oread's intent.

AC 20. Barkskin. Shillelagh < 4 minutes left.

Oh, *I* totally know what you wanted Shah, but this is the first time the poor, sheltered Sad has seen such a thing. He was confuzzled.

The professor, feeling somewhat vindicated that the flames of Brigh are coming in handy, tosses another fiery bolt at the fleshy mass.

Fire bolt (ranged touch): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 for 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Graxus and Tywin charge forward into the front most blob.

greatsword: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 dmg: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (2, 3) + 8 = 13
lance: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 dmg: 2d6 + 10 ⇒ (2, 1) + 10 = 13

-Posted with Wayfinder

Sharazad waves her hand and the note turns to smoke. She then blasts another note on her flute at the front blob!

ear-piercing scream
sonic: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 1) = 5 plus dazed for 1 round
DC 15 Fort save for half damage and to negate dazed

George keeps lobbing bombs at the group, this time targeting one in the rear. These things are pretty easily handled...

Bomb-RTA: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31
Fire Damage: 4d6 + 5 ⇒ (3, 2, 5, 5) + 5 = 20
Splash Damage: 9; Reflex Save DC 18 for half.

Kalendir fire two arrows at the rear most glob of flesh.

Arrow 1: 1d20 + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 25
Damage: 1d8 + 1 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 2 + 4 = 8

Arrow 2: 1d20 + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 25
Damage: 1d8 + 1 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 1 + 2 + 4 = 12

+1 Attack / Damage from point Blank Shot
Precise shot to eliminate -4 modifier for shooting into melee
-2 modifier for rapid shot to fire an extra arrow
Weapon Focus and Deadly Aim -2/+4
+1 Att- Bless

The Professor's bolt of fire is too imprecise to hit, but Graxus and Tywin, along with the help of Shahrazad's spell, dissolve the first blob of flesh!

Ref: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (15) - 2 = 13
The two last blobs sustain heavy damage, from George's bomb, then by Kalendir's arrows. The elf finishes off the second mass of flesh as it is slowly growing under the impact from the arrows.

The last flesh mound moves to its doom, oblivious of what is about to happen to it. Mindlessly, it tries to hit George but its fleshy limbs can't pierce the alchemist's defenses.
Slam: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

Initiative - round 5 - bold may act!
1. Sad Rock, George, Tywin, Professor F
2. Mass of flesh
3. Kalendir, Shahrazad

The tiefling will toss one more bomb at the beast, drawing an attack from the ooze. Disgusting... I wonder if I can turn you into a poison...

Bomb-RTA: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16
Fire Damage: 4d6 + 5 ⇒ (4, 1, 1, 6) + 5 = 17

George's bomb almost turns the last flesh blob to cinders. However, the hungry flesh retaliates and grabs the alchemist, contricting him with great strength!
AoO: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Confirm: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Grab: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27 *grappled*

Damage, constrict: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (4, 3) + 8 = 15 Fort save vs disease, please.

"And I have heard, O fortunate companions, that Gharib, the ghul, and the two marid kings returned to Gharib's city. They beat down Gharib's enemies, each of them killing ten thousand men and jinn per day. . . . "

Inspire Courage: +1 attack/damage and +1 morale on saves against fear!

Seeing that george is grappled with the grotesque creature kalendir is careful where he may fire his arrows, so as not to injure the man furrther.

Arrow 1: 1d20 + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 10 + 1 - 2 - 2 + 1 + 1 = 28

Round 5, Group 3

Seeing George in trouble, Sad springs! waddles into action, trying to save his friend.

He 5' steps closer to the blob (no, not the Professor, the ooze) and swings with his shillelagh club with two mighty hands. He lets Shah's words inspire him.

1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 8 + 1 + 1 - 1 = 21 to hit; (bard, shillelagh, power attack)
2d6 + 6 + 3 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3, 3) + 6 + 3 + 1 + 1 = 17 damage; (shillelah, PA, bard, magic)

AC 20, HP 35/35

Sad Rock and Kalendir, encouraged by their Keleshite tale teller, finish off the last one of the hungry flesh.

End combat.

Noise of machinery can be heard coming from upstairs.

"Pfoe that wss intense. How could that golem fly, magic?

I wonder if we should check these rooms. They might hold the coffin to shut the devices off, no?" Tywin says

-Posted with Wayfinder

The professor takes a few steps foward once the blobby flesh-beats seem to no longer pose an immediate danger to his already-lengthy life.

"Welllll done Pathfinders! And good riddance I say to you fleshy monstrosities!"

With a wave of another wand, he pokes George in the leg.

Cure light (on George) - from wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Sad beats on the oozes once more, then looks around for thinks of interest.

1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16 Perception

"You okay, Gee-orgy?"

When George is ready, Sad will search for Pelletdown Pendleton and opens the door by the owlbear (to the south).

"Pelletdown? You in there?"

Just had to roll a crit,huh? ;)

George will consume an antitoxin after the mission to try and correct whatever ails him. Assuming a 14 won't cut it, hope a 19 will.

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19 Antitoxin roll

Thanks Professor. George finishes the job of healing with his own wand.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

George move to investigate with Sad Rock.

Antitoxin won't help you, since it's a disease. We'll have to solve it at the end of the scenario. Moving on for now.

Sad Rock opens the door leading to the Museum Library. This small, wellstocked research library exists for donors and visiting scholars to use. Nearly a third of the shelf space is dedicated to cataloging the museum’s collection.

A quick search of the remaining rooms on this floor revealts no other unfortunate encounter with slimy flesh mounds or flying robots from outer space, only a lecture hall, staff offices, freight elevator and lavatories.
