Qwerty's PFS Crypt of the Everflame Module (Inactive)

Game Master qwerty1971

Grimnir watches Toctep take a drink, wary of drinking any himself.

Teena also doesn't approach the water, wanting to see how her friend deals with it, before volunteering herself.

Toctep drinks some of the water and finds it cool and good to the taste. Any scrapes, bumps or bruises he may have endured during the course of the mission have all been alleviated...he feels invigorated.

Seeing Toctel not keel over from the water, Elric finally lets Anto, who has been mrowling quietly and trying to inch forward un-observed, have a drink of water. The tiger happily dunks his head in and laps eagerly. Elric follows, and turns to the party after he's had his own drink.
Its quite good. I'd even wager its magical somehow. I feel much better.

After a group discussion between those who practice magical arts the group determines the nature of the water...

"That was refresssshing!" Toctep says

Not sure if that is a door to the south, if it is Toctep will open it to see what is behind once everybody is ready, otherwise retrace our steps and go west

"As I'm feeling perfectly fine, I'm not going to drink right now. It clearly has some healing effect. I might need that later," Teena advises the others.

"Same with me. I might come back too Teena."

Without need of healing, Grimnir still eyes the water suspiciously.

"Per'aps we should continue on," he says.

Back to the north and then west?

so now you know where a healing source is if you need to run back to it...where to next?

Not sure if that is a door to the south, if it is Toctep will open it to see what is behind once everybody is ready, otherwise retrace our steps and go west

if you mean if there is a trap door in the room where the fountain is then no. the items on the n and s wall are just room decorations.

the group retraces their steps back to the circular room and head west...
The corridor opens up into a winding catacomb. The walls are skillfully carved with deep recesses where bodies might have once lain. All that remains now are cobwebs, dust, and the tattered remains of ancient clothing. The stench of rotting flesh is overpowering here, but the source is not evident.

Chankotu looks around the room.

Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15

Grimnir, at the head of the group, spits.

"Somethin' foul is afit. Undeid, ur mah Uncle Horrace's socks..." he says as he looks around.

perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Teena takes a step backwards. If there was undead around, she wanted the boys to take the front. Her magic was still awfully low right now.

sorry again for ghosting the game was having a really hard time but then things got better in a big way, I'm becoming a father. Well anyway sorry again I feel bad for doing that to you all no mater the reason

-Posted with Wayfinder

congrats Ruik

Grimnir walks into the room and looks around seeing nothing as cobwebs get caught in front of his eyes...Chankuto follows the dwarf in and immediately notices some strange looking zombies on the west side of the room rising and slowly advancing towards the dwarf and kitsune in a menacing manner...

Combat 1st Round
Teena, Elric, Necu, Chankuto, Grimnir
Zombies
Toctep

Teena tries to pick up a local unAttended rock and toss it at the closest undead using her Telekinectic Projectile spell.

Ranged attack 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19
Damage 1d6 ⇒ 5

"Huh, why are you all sssstoping?" Toctep asks, utterly surprised by the zombies

Congrats Ruik!

Chankotu moves to get a clear shot with his crossbow and fires.

attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18

damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7

Grimnir moves to an advantageous position, then prepares to cave in the skull of the first creature that comes near him.

"Brin' it!" he shouts.

Weapon currently at 10' reach

MW Dorn Dergar: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 211d10 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Elric and Anto both sprint forward into the room.

Teena enters the room moves to the back and sends an attack at the teal zombie hitting it square in the chest...

Elric and Anto charge into the room and maneuver to positions to attack next turn...

Grimnir moves to a corner and waits for the zombies to move towards him...

Chankuto moves across the room and sends a bolt towards the teal zombie hitting it as well...the teal zombie, having taken sufficient damage, begins to sway and then explodes hurling rotting flesh out and about in all directions for roughly 5 feet away...everyone in the room thanks the gods they were not next to the creature when it exploded or they would be covered in that rotting flesh and who knows what kind of illnesses they could catch...warning

Necu delays- jump in when you can

the purple zombie moves towards Grimnir and gets strick with the readied attack but it is not enough to down the zombie and the creature gets closer to the dwarf...
The orange zombie moves next to the kitsune and the pink zombie follows the purple zombie tiwards the dwarf...

Party is up
Combat 1st Round
Teena, Elric, Necu, Chankuto, Grimnir
Zombies
Toctep
Combat 2nd Round
Teena, Elric, Necu, Chankuto, Grimnir
Zombies
Toctep

Toctep enters the room and swings his nodachi in a wide arc

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
Damage: 1d10 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
Fortitude Save if needed: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23

Toctep- I moved you closer to the orange zombie as the teal zombie exploded

Toctep charges in and swings his weapon with great force at the orange zombie causing it to explode with the force of impact...Toctep steels himself to the possible infection after getting zombie guts on himself Anto, and Chankuto...Chankuto and Anto need a DC 11 FORT save or contract zombie rot

Seeming to finally wake up from his nap Nec moves up to the party

Double move

not sure if the tokens got moved I double move around

Fort: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13

Map got screwed up, I think. I can't tell where I am, but I konw I had a zombie adjacent. I'll step back and attack.

Grimnir, having struck a creature once, steps back and swings again.

MW Dorn Dergar: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 111d10 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

OK i fixd the map from what i remember last looking at it when Toctep entered the room. Grimnir int he corner accosted by two zombies, Chakuto and Toctep and Anto near each other after a zombie exploded. We should be good. Will adjudicate the next actions.

Necu moves in to the room and sees the party fighting some zombies...
Chakotu proves to be virulent against rotting flesh can still act...
Grimnir takes a step north and swings at the closest zombie (purple) striking it and making it explode in a burst of rotting flesh..

just one zombie left, pink, in the southern part of the room

k I'll attack the one in front of me.

Chankotu drops his crossbow and hurriedly takes out his rapier.

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

The group work together to destroy the last of the slow moving exploding zombies...

After the melee ends the group begin to clean their weapons and their bodies of the zombie rotted flesh when a few of them notice some backpacks resting in the southeast corner is a tattered backpack...
Sitting atop a large bloodstain,this pack holds some rotten rations, a map (detailing the area and pointing out the entrance to the crypt), a potion of cure moderate wounds, a pouch with 13 gp, and a small handbill (of a type typically found posted in taverns). Although faded, the handbill clearly reads as a notice of employment, telling all those interested to meet at “The Ranger’s Lament.”

"No time to wasssste! Hurry!" Toctep says while he opens the next door.

Teena shakes her head, thinking how great it would be to rest for just a few moments. Despite this, she follows the others into the next room.

Necu smiles a hot-blooded Cold Blood hilarious he thinks as necu follows through the door

-Posted with Wayfinder

Chankotu follows Toctep through the door, his rapier in his hand.

Grimnir ensures everyone is healed up, then heads into the next room to the south.

Grimnir and Toctep lead the group through the southern door and take a few steps inside the next room to allow others a chance to enter. A shallow reflecting pool divides this long chamber, running from one end to the other. The water looks cloudy and stagnant. What must have once been marvelous murals covering both walls are now scorched and ruined, the original subject lost in the destruction. The air in the room has an eerie feel and on some of the group the hair on their skin seems to stand up as if unnerved...

On the far side of the room is another door, that is blocked by a portcullis...the portcullis is half up allowing for people to pass under it while ducking their head...from their distance the group can see the portcullis normally down...

"We've been all over down here and we haven't heard a peep from the girl we are after. Are we sure this is a great idea? Pressing on this way, I mean?"

"We have come thisss far and not had any real oppossssition. What would ressssting have given ussss?" Toctep replies

Player is not opposed to resting; I understand that casters feel left out a bit at this point

Grimnir appears ready to proceed, but knows they may not be as effective without their casters ready.

If we need to rest, the good water area is the place to do it. Want to stop, Teena?

as the party thinks of resting Necu looks at the oddly still water using a random stone he skips it across the water...

im good with what ever you all want to do

Teena wanted to stop clearly, but she didn't want to be the reason the group might fail to save the girl. "Tell me honestly, do you think the girl is alive? If any of you believe that, I will press on. If we are chasing with no hope, then we should rest."

does the party rest or press on. if the group decides to rest then where?

"We should press on in the hopes that she is still alive"

"If you think she's alive, then let's press forward."

With an agreement to continue forward, Grimnir takes the lead and heads through the room with the portcullis.

The dwarf leads the group under the portcullis into the next room...he being the only one who does not have to duck under the not all the way up gate...This chamber has a number of recesses carved into the walls and the looks of a recent fissure up in the ceiling....it seems as if the ceiling and the innards of the fissure are alive, but Grimnirs eyes detect the presence of a multitude of bats.... currently asleep...

Grimnir backs into the hallway and whispers to his companions about the best way to confront the bats.

Should we unstop some acid flanks and surprise them?

no I think the best course of action would be to charge right through making noise... just a suggestion...

Elric nods and whispers back.
Acid flasks, flasks of alchemist's flame, and the like.

Discussion open.
Please discuss appropriate team composition and then provide the relevant information of your character.
Some things of note:
1. I am deployed to Kabul and thus I post early my morning and my evening after dinner when not in the office.
2. If you cannot access the map when you post let someone know what your movement intentions are so others can move your token.
3. When a Save is called for ensure that save is the first dice you roll during your post.
4. I will adjust the colors of the fallen foes to a deep red when they are no longer active, just be aware. The border color is their target color, the picture color is how damaged they are.

Happy to be here

Are you planning on running the whole dungeon?

All I know about it has multiple floors I played the first level with a different character but that's it

I'm bringing this guy, but he's going to experience a small rebuild. Namely, I'm applying an Adopted Weapon Training Boon to utilize an Elven Curved Blade, and I'm considering trading out Tribal Scars for Undersized Mount. Most everything else should stay the same.

As far as his tiger goes, I'm thinking of sticking with Light Armor Proficiency for now, and then picking up Narrow Frame once he becomes large. I haven't done an animal companion or mounted combat in PFS yet so any tips would be appreciated.

Is this full? qwerty sent me a PM

I made a Kitsune bard 1

Dot. I'll add everything in a bit as I'm on the run this morning.

you are good qstor. just waiting for everyone to dot in. still waiting two more folks.

I was thinking of doing this with my druid (nature fang) 1 / hunter 1 with his rhinoceros companion. However I see that we also have a hunter 1.

Will that be too much of a menagerie? I can also run this with a new lvl 1 or a pregen if you prefer that.

you can run this only once with a lvl 2 character. you can run this multiple times with a lvl 1 character. why not make a brand new lvl 1 for it. your choice though. a rhino might find some difficulties in a dungeon.

Brand new level 1 it is.

Let me see, we have:

Hunter with Tiger
Druid
Bard
Psychic

I think I will bring a Nagaji Bloodrager (Green Draconic bloodline)

NECUAMETL COATL: I noticed you have Weapon Focus as your feat: weapon focus needs a BaB of +1, which you don't have.

Oh thanks for that, foward planning for when I finally do get a bite attack I'm going for the constrictor build

Oh and I do have a Python pet as well

-Posted with Wayfinder

I present Toctep. Faction might be changed and statline will be added.

Hey guys...PatheticWretch checking in.

Thanks for running this, Qwerty! I'll play this level 1 paladin if that works.

once everyone is ready in the game thread we will start the ability for me to kill you all.... er for the chance at your heroes to do great things.

at least i do not have an oracle commanding undead this time around.

Will start in a few hours.

I have asked for permission to access map. I have tweaked my stats a bit. Note that power attack is always activated, unless stated otherwise.

ah yes maps. forget to set the permissions. I will do so when I leave the office. thanks for the reminder

Hey DM, my part of the country is under a heavy snow/ice warning for this weekend. If I lose power; I will probably not be able to post for a few days. Hopefully that doesn't happen, but I wanted to mention it, just in case I vanish for a bit. Please bot Teena as needed. Thanks.

DC area? Be safe and warm. no worries.

In Kentucky. It hit us earlier today and is supposed to last through almost all the weekend!

I'm in NC and it hit us pretty hard too. I may be spotty for a day or two. Also, sorry for being mostly absent for the last couple of days. Just found out I have a tiny gamer on the way, and I've been dealing with all of the doctors appointments and stuff.

Congrats on the new addition to the family on the way!

Congrats way to go on confirming that possible crit roll.

Congrats on the new addition to the family!

Just a heads up I'm going on a cruise for a week at the end of February so my posting will be spotty.

Going to París for v day weekend so posting might be spoty

OK I now realize how boring it is to rp a silent character...I feel like a lurker so I will change this characters play style a bit ^_^

-Posted with Wayfinder

Yep. The strong and silent type doesn't work for PbP, unfortunately.

Just fyi- I am sick as a dog. I will post later today after some meds do their magic

Get well first, we will wait.

We are still here, np

well I have finally got some things in place to help me in RL sorry for ghosting on the game. Am I still in the game or is it to late to rejoin the party? I know the scenario might be done soon but wanted to check in, sorry again

I will be on holiday until May 6th. I might get in a post, but do not expect it. Please bot me when needed.

Toctep will us rage if he can do a full-attack with claws (and the situation asks for it), otherwise he will use nodachi
