PFS Thornkeep The Accursed Halls (Inactive)

Game Master Tyranius

You can see a few of them. They are just busy arguing.

Tecolote puts a finger to his beak, then signals toward the goblins, then slashes a finger across his throat.

Sial moves up behind the pillar keeping the goblins on the other side.
He indicates for Orza to follow quietly

handle animal sneak: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

orza sneak: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31

sneak: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

Aparctias shrugs, not understanding either. He waits where he is, waiting for a signal.

Are there any plants in the area for use with Entangle?

There are plants and small roots in each of the rooms.

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

The goblins pay no mind to Orza or Sial.

Tecolote slips forward, just behind Sial and Orza.
Stealth (Move 1): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
Stealth (Move 2): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17

Bolger also tries to hide in the shadows.
Stealth Move 1: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13 damn
Stealth Move 2: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

Bolger and Tecolote also manage to slip into the room unnoticed.

Tecolote continues to slip forward from the shadows, hoping to put himself in position to attack from surprise.
Stealth (Move 1): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
Stealth (Move 2): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
A 1 is not an auto fail on a skill check Bolger. You beat their Perception. Everyone should remember you can only half move on stealth checks without taking a penalty.

"Lets get them Orza..

Handle Animal Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24

Orza moves around the other side of the pillar and attacks

Bite Attack Goblin + Flank: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 211d8 ⇒ 8

Sial powers up his club Arcane Strike

Sial Club Attack + Flank: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 201d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Bolger moves further into the room, trying to be stealthy.
Stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 28
Stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32
double move, 4 squares

Aparctias sees Sial begin the ambush and immediately starts chanting, defining the point of origin where his spell takes place. Moments later, roots burst from the ground and attempt to grapple three of the goblins.

Casting Entangle!

Aparctias: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Sial: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21
Tecolote: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Bolger: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Goblins: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Sial and Orza slightly move around the pillar and eviscerate the goblin before them as Sial's magical club slams into the creatures neck

Bolger moves further into the room as Aparctias asks for a divine favor as the roots and grass begin to grow once again at an abnormal rate.

Reflex DC 16 Blue: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
Reflex DC 16 Red: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
Reflex DC 16 Purple: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22

The blue goblin gets caught in the vines as the red and purple goblin easily scramble free from their restraints.

Surprise Round; either a move or a standard action

Tecolote
Sial
Bolger
Aparctias

Tecolote stabs at the goblin right next to him.
Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Tecolote stabs at the goblin beside him but is unable to pierce his armor.

Aparctias

Bolger gets closer to the goblin with the red shirt and tries to hit him with his morningstar.
Morningstar: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6 sneak: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Sial 5 ft steps to the side draws his sling and loads it

Tecolote holds for a moment before his next attack, looking for weaknesses in the goblin's armor or hesitations in his defenses. Then he lashes out with his wakizashi once more.
Move action: Study goblin, Standard action: Attack
Attack (Mwk Wakizashi): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
Damage (Mwk Wakizashi): 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Tecolote cuts the goblin down with his thin short blade. The goblin falls to the ground bleeding out as it clutches it's side breathing laboriously.

Sial steps back and loads his sling as Bolger swings his morning star at the collapsing goblin and still seems to miss it.

The purple goblin weaves a quick incantation as fire erupts from her fingers towards Tecolote and Bolger and then takes a step back

reflex DC 16 entangle: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18

damage: 3d4 ⇒ (1, 3, 4) = 8
rounds: 1d4 ⇒ 2

DC 12 Reflex save for half damage. If you fail the reflex save you also catch fire, taking 1 point of fire damage each round for 2 rounds.

The blue goblin struggles against the vines as it begins to spit and curse at them

Strength check DC 16: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (8) - 1 = 7

Gasping at the vines the creature grasps at a shortbow nearby.

Arcane strike powerup

Sial twirls his sling through the air and flings a bullet at the caster goblin.

sling: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 221d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

confirm crit: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 171d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Aparctias moves closer to the melee.

Double move.

Bolger remembers what he learned in physical education lessons and tries to jump aside but the lessons were too long ago as it seems and he catches fire.
Reflex: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

With burning hair and shirt he drops to the ground and rolls around to extinguish the flames.

Tecolote stops, drops and rolls, avoiding most of the flames and comes up with a few badly singed feathers.
Reflex save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

Tecolote dives under the majority of the flames leaving Bolger standing in their wake. Bolger's clothes instantly ignite. The gnome drops to the ground and begins rolling around.

Need another save Bolger. You also get +4 bonus for rolling on the ground.

Aparctias moves further into the room as Sial slams an enchanted rock directly into the casting goblin's face.

Reflex: 1d20 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 4 = 13

I'm going to delay. Since my BAB is still 0 my only options are to stay armed with both wakizashis and wait for the goblins to come to us or to drop both of them and draw a sling, but not be able to use it until next round.

Assuming the goblin caster doesn't leave the entangle and thus the sling remains viable, if it doesn't i shall do something different

Sial powers up his sling with arcane strike, loads it and fires at the Goblin caster

Sling: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 91d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Tecolote holds his wakizashi's as he contemplates entering the area of deep vines.

The blue goblin struggles with the vines once again

Str check Dc 16: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (11) - 1 = 10

but fails to make any headway. The goblin lopsidedly fires an arrow at Bolger as it struggles.

Shortbow vs Bolger AC 15: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2

The arrow slams into Bolger leaving him woozy as the purple goblin moves around the pillar and weaves a spell. A wave of negative energy rushes from the small goblin as the surrounding party feels a bit less confident.

DC 12 Will save from everyone to negate or take -1 to attack rolls and saving throws against fear for 3 minutes.

Sial hurls a rock at the little caster but misses as the goblin darts between his companions.

Will: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 Oof, that's bad.

Aparctias loses confidence but takes out his wand of cure light wounds, ready to heal anyone who comes near. "Come close and I can heal you!"

Move action to take out wand, 5-foot step forward, and ready action to use the wand on whoever comes into range for a heal.

Tecolote fights off the goblin's spell and retreats to Aparctius to receive healing in the next round.
Will save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23

Will Save Orza: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Will Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15

Aparctias pulls loose his healing wand as he looks around for the most severely injured as Tecolote rushes to his aid.

Aparctias (bane)
Tecolote (4/8 hp)
Sial (Orza bane)
Bolger (0/10)
-----------------------------
Goblins (Blue-Entangled; purple -13 hp)
-----------------------------

Feeling his life leaving his body, Bolger withdraws.

With both Tecolote and Bolger approaching him for relief, he decides to heal Bolger first as he's the most seriously wounded.

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Using the readied action to heal Bolger.

Tecolote acknowledges, "He's worse off than me. I'll get ready to try to pick them off from here." The tengu drops his wakizashis and gets his sling ready.

Still need a will save from you Bolger

Bolger rushes to Aparctias and collapses to the floor right in front of him. Seems he over exerted himself. Aparctias kneels down and touches his wand to Bolger's side causing his wounds to heal on their own.

The purple goblin rushes around the side of the pillar as she cackles. She opens her toothy maw and before they know it Fire springs forth from the little goblins mouth rushing over Bolger, Aparctias and Sial.

Fire Damage: 3d4 ⇒ (2, 3, 3) = 8
Rounds: 1d4 ⇒ 4

DC 12 Relex for half damage and if you fail the save you catch fire for 4 rounds taking 1 fire damage each round.

The blue goblin continues to struggle at his bonds.

Strength DC 16: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (6) - 1 = 5

The goblin seems to be having a rough time and instead decides to fire another arrow at Tecolote

Shortbow vs Tecolote AC 17: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23
damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4

The arrow slams into Tecolote, piercing his armor. The tengu drops to a knee gasping for breath

Aparctias (4/12 Hp; need a reflex save)(bane)
Tecolote (0/8 hp)
Sial (2/10 HP; need a reflex save)(Orza bane)
Bolger (0/10; need a reflex and will save)
-----------------------------
Goblins (Blue-Entangled; purple -13 hp)
-----------------------------

Reflex: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17

Aparctias dodges most of the fire and uses his wand to aid his allies again.

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Heal Bolger, but if Bolger makes the save, heal Tecolote instead.

ref save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Sial points to where he wants Orza to move to

"Flank the beast Orza.. move here and attack"

Handle Animal Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

Orza attacks

Bite Attack Goblin -bane + flank: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 111d8 ⇒ 3
Claw Attack Goblin -bane + flank: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 201d4 ⇒ 2
Claw Attack Goblin -bane + flank: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 211d4 ⇒ 1

Sial powers up his attacks Arcane Strike

Sial unarmed Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 91d3 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Will: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
Reflex: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

Bolger again drops to the ground and rolls around to extinguish the flames.
Reflex: 1d20 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 4 = 15

I think my actions, drop wakizashis (free action) and draw sling (move action) fall in the same round as getting knocked to 0 hp. I think that I can still do those actions without dropping from disabled to -1 hp since neither is a standard action.

@Tecolote- Yes you are good.

Aparctias dodges the flames as he taps his wand against Bolger once again.

Sial never saw the flames coming as they wash over him. His clothes catch on fire as panic enters his eyes. Fighting through the pain as flames sear his skin Sial orders Orza to flank with him.

Th goblin seems distracted by Sial that it doesn't even see Orza until two claws rip into her.

Bolger also takes the full effect of the flames as he immediately drops to the ground and puts himself out.

Aparctias (8/12 Hp; need a reflex save)(bane)
Tecolote (0/8 hp)
Sial (1/10 HP; on fire 3/4)(Orza bane)
Bolger (3/10; prone)
-----------------------------
Goblins (Blue-Entangled; purple -16 hp)
-----------------------------

I'm not taking any more actions this round since a standard would drop me to dying.

Tecolote holds where he is as the purple female goblin begins to chant once again.

Cast Defensively Concentration DC 17: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

The goblin seems to quickly loose her concentration though and she looks frustrated as she seems to attempt to recall what she was doing.

The other goblins still struggles.

Strength DC 16: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (18) - 1 = 17

And finally breaks free from the vines. Clamoring over everything as quickly as he can he exits the miniature forest as sweat runs down it's entire body. The goblin breaths laboriously and fires an arrow at Aparctias.

Shortbow vs Aparctias AC 14: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

The tired goblin seems to have forgotten to put the arrow into the longbow and just throws it at Aparctias. Missing of course.

Aparctias (8/12 Hp)(bane)
Tecolote (0/8 hp)
Sial (1/10 HP; on fire 3/4)(Orza bane)
Bolger (3/10; prone)
-----------------------------
Goblins (Blue-Entangled; purple -16 hp)
-----------------------------

Aparctias ignores the arrow passing him by a wide margin, focusing on healing Tecolote.

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Feeling better, Tecolote loads a stone into his sling and fires it off at the purple female goblin.
Attack (Sling): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Bolger gets up, drops his morningstar and takes out his sling.

Sial steps away 5 ft and drops and rolls.

ref save: 1d20 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 2 + 4 = 14

Aparctias heals Tecolote with his wand. Feeling a bit stronger Tecolote attempts to hurl a stone at the goblin though it seems not all of his strength has returned.

Sial steps back and drops to the ground as he puts himself out. The female goblin laughs hysterically at him.

Bolger drops his Morningstar and draws his sling

The female goblin once again steps back and begins to cast a sell while keeping on eye on the dinosaur.

Cast defensively DC 17: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24

It seems her memory is like a steel trap this time as she completes the spell.

Orza begins to feel an impending doom take over.

Orza- DC 12 Will save or become shaken for 3 minutes

The remaining goblin fires another arrow at Aparctias.

Shortbow vs Aparctias AC 14: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2

The arrow clips Aparctia's wing.

Aparctias (6/12 Hp)(bane)
Tecolote (6/8 hp)
Sial (1/10 HP; prone)(Orza bane)
Bolger (3/10)
-----------------------------
Goblins (Blue-Entangled; purple -16 hp)
-----------------------------

Aparctias moves further back to Sial's side and heals him with another tap of his wand.

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
