PbP GameDay 3: PFS 01-30 Cassomir's Locker (1-7) (Inactive)

Game Master Andrew Trexler

Drystan enters the room, drawing his wand as he tries to get a decent look through the door.

Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25 - +1 traps, +2 stone

Posting in advance

Isabella moves into the room, drawing her swords while she moves. In her other hand she still has the torch. She moves around the creature and attacks it, but misses.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

It was your turn anyway! Drystan doesn't see much new of interest beyond the derro, Isabella can't see quite well enough to swing straight.

Still haven't heard from Kazzak in forever... Kazzak and Puss enter the fray, Kazzak swinging over Grenda's head with his naginata. Naginata: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 5 - 4 = 3 MISS

The derro backs through the door, firing another arrow--this time at Jamamros.

Bolt: 1d20 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 5 - 2 = 23 CRIT THREAT
Confirm: 1d20 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 5 - 2 = 19 CONFIRM
Damage: 2d8 ⇒ (6, 6) = 12

The bolt his the dwarf squarely in his short neck and the necromancer goes down. Poison begins to course through his stout veins. Need a Fort save against poison.

Round I Summary

Grenda: hit!
Miaka: hit!
Drystan: moves

Isabella:
Kazzak:

Party is up! Well, except Jamamros. :P

Someone get him off the floor, I don't want to get his blood on my boots. Grenda says with a sneer as she steps up to attack the Derro. Nice shot scum, lets see it you get to take another.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 yuck...
Well might as well use my Shirt reroll...
Attack: 1d20 + 4 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 4 + 3 = 20
Damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

Round 2 Precise Shot, Flurry
Maika will rapidly shoot at the ferro ...
Flurry: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 for Piercing: 1d8 ⇒ 6
Flurry: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11 for Piercing: 1d8 ⇒ 4
... and seems to have trouble drawing a good bead on the small creature.

Grenda's flail bounces off the door frame directly into the face of the foe. The derro looks barely able to hold its feet. Miaka's arrows ricochet off the dwarf's thick armor.

Drystan, Jamamros, Isabella, Kazzak!
Everyone please also see the Discussion thread.

Round II
Baddies: crit Jamamros
Grenda: smacks the baddie

Drystan: CURRENT

Jamamros lays on the floor, awaiting his inevitable death.

Jamamros's death may be inevitable, but not just yet! He staves off the poison, but is still bleeding. Roll to stabilize.

Round II Update
Baddies: crit Jamamros
Grenda: smacks the baddie
Miaka: double miss
Drystan: CURRENT
Jamamros@-2/10hp,bleeding out: pending stabilize roll
Isabella:
Kazzak:

Everyone please check the Discussion thread.

Drystan conjures a bit of flaming holy energy and flings it at Jamamros. The fire mends his wounds, cauterizing them in the process. "Meh," he says, unimpressed by his work. "At least he isn't bleeding anymore."

Heavenly Fire: 1d20 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 2 + 4 = 19
Heavenly Fire: 1d4 ⇒ 1

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

Isabella tries to move past the derro into the other room but fails. She then takes a step up and attacks the fey.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

GM Trex, I changed from a flail to an Waraxe before we started

Grenda looks back at Jamamros and chuckles. [b]Good idea Drystan but I don't thing that did any good.[/ooc]

Heavenly fire doesn't do anything to people with neutral alignments.

GM Trex, I changed from a flail to an Waraxe before we started

My bad! That makes sense, you are a dwarf after all. Just assumed you'd be using Groteus's favorite instrument of chaos.

Drystan's holy flame washes over the bleeding Jamamros with no effect while Isabella takes another heroic stab at the foe. He blade slides off its armor, however.

Stabilize: 1d20 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 - 2 = 3 Jamamros continues to bleed out.

Kazzak thrusts his naginata over Grenda's head Naginata: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 5 - 4 = 12 but his blade too is knocked aside.

The derro pulls the lever on its crossbow, steps back, and fires again--for Grenda. Bolt: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17 The bolt is barely turned!

Party is up again.

Round III
Baddies: miss
Grenda: CURRENT
Miaka:
Drystan:
Jamamros@-3/10hp,bleeding out: pending stabilize roll
Isabella:
Kazzak:

Grenda steps up, still chuckling, and takes a swing at the Derro. No where left to run.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Isabella moves around the derro and attacks once again. Her sword slices clean through the creature's armor. She swiftly turns her sword for an upward stroke and smiles at Grenda over the derro's head.

That's how it is done

Attack, Flank: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 3 + 2 = 24
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Confirm Critical: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 3 + 2 = 23
Additional Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

20 damage I guess

Round 3 Precise Shot, Flurry
Maika will shoot at the ferro ... again
Flurry: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11 for Piercing: 1d8 ⇒ 7
Flurry: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17 for Piercing: 1d8 ⇒ 5
... finally starting to get the rhythm of the combat.

Isabella beheads the derro, just as Miaka's second arrow flies through the door. The arrow impales the severed head and pins it against the wall.

Out of initiative!

The dead derro's grave is a room full of cages--all stuffed with (normal sized) rats. On one table, however, there is also a small shiny rat statue: the jet rat, along with a ledger written in Undercommon and a chest full of gold. After healing up Jamamros and returning to the surface, a scholar at Cassomir's lodge identifies the ledger as a record of the derro's slave trade. The derros had slowly increased their slaving over the last few months, but with huge surges in the last few weeks. There is also the record of a woman having escaped just a few days ago, along with the mite that was beaten to death for allowing it to happen.

Though VC Hestia Themis congratulates you on a job well done by defeating the derros here and taking the jet rat--slowing the derros’ plans for the future--this does not solve the problem entirely. Kidnappings slow in the city (except for the Imperial Navy Yard, where they increase...), but continue to expand in the countryside around Cassomir. Rumors begin to circulate throughout the city that the derro menace has been stopped, but some whisper darker tidings, such as the recent spotting of a derro inside the walls of Swift Prison, a rumor the Taldan authorities heatedly deny.

Good work team! Chronicles are HERE!
