Shoris follows Elenial and Parsnip.

Rowanna follows Shoris, Parsnip, and Elenial.

"Huzzah!"

Parsnip checks his "six."

"Well, it's a bit dark here. Anyone spots any undead?"

Parsnip casts light on his shield. "Is that better?"

"I said, IS THAT BETTER? Don't ignore me just because I'm a gnome!"

"Sorry my friend, I were distracted by the ancient writings on the walls. Yes this is better."

"In that case, you are completely forgiven. As Pathfinders, noticing and documenting such things is our primary purpose. Can I convince you to take some rubbings of those markings?" Parsnip hands a piece of parchment and some charcoal to Elenial.

"Sure you can." Elenial takes the paper and charcoal and starts to take some rubbings.

Two ornate wooden chariots sit upon platforms in this chamber, positioned as if ready to charge across the desert sands outside, though no mounts are harnessed to their yokes. The chamber’s walls are carved in relief with scenes of charioteering, racing, and war.

As you go around the corner and Parsnip illuminates the chamber beyond, 6 skulls turn to look at you. Each of the skeletons is carrying a bow and arrow and turn to face you.

Skelly 3 moves to the other side of the room and fires at 1d2 ⇒ 1 Rowanna...

Skelly3: 1d20 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 - 2 = 11

... but the arrow doesn't quite make it to her.

Skelly 2 fires at 1d2 ⇒ 1 Rowanna as well...

Skelly 2: 1d20 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (6) + 2 - 4 = 4

... the arrow hits the other chariot in front of him and misses.

Skelly 1 fires at 1d2 ⇒ 2 Elenial...

Skelly 1: 1d20 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (9) + 2 - 4 = 7

... but has the same luck as the other skeleton.

Parsnip and Rowanna are up!

Parsnip will start Inspire Courage, for a +1/+1 to people, and I will move to let the fighters up front.

Unsure how she managed to find herself in front, Rowanna casts Invisibilty on herself and moves to find a good position to roast some skeletons.

Since invisibility is a glamer form of illusion, it still works on undead.

Parsnip sings a little louder!

Skeleton 4 moves forward to shoot over the frontmost chariot at Elenial...

Attack: 1d20 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (4) + 2 - 4 = 2
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

.. but the arrow lands at its feet.

Elenial and Shoris are up!

Shoris pulls out a small pearl, and the pearl begins humming with magical energy.

activating my pearl of power

Elenial approaches one of the skeletons and takes out her flail. double move

"Are we winning?"

Parsnip ponders his next book purchase.

Elenial moves her flail from one hand to the other and back.

I know updates have been slow... I have been studying for a very important exam... It is on Saturday morning

The last two skeletons move up to shoot at Elenial.

Skelly 6: 1d20 + 2 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 1 - 4 = 0
Skelly 5: 1d20 + 2 + 1 - 4 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 + 1 - 4 - 2 = 10

But both of them miss. Especially Skelly 6, who forgot to draw an arrow.

Skelly 3 repeats them...

Skelly 3: 1d20 + 2 + 1 - 4 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 1 - 4 - 2 = 2

... also missing terribly.

Skelly 2 drops his bow and moves to attack her with its claws.

Skelly 2, Claw 1: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15
Skelly 2, Claw 2: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21
Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

one of the attacks hits!

Skelly 1 drops its bow and attacks with a broken scimitar and a claw attack!

Skelly 1, Scimitar: 1d20 ⇒ 12
Skelly 1, Claw: 1d20 - 3 ⇒ (6) - 3 = 3

And misses with both attacks.

Parsnip and Rowanna are up!

Although her mind is screaming this is a bad idea, Rowanna approaches the northern group of skeletons and casts Burning Hands, shooting jets of scalding flame at the undead monstrosities.

Burning Hands Damage: 4d4 ⇒ (3, 1, 2, 1) = 7
Reflex DC 15 for half damage, and invisibility is broken.

"Great job!"

Skelly3: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21
Skelly5: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Skelly6: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Skelly 3 saves, but the other 2 are burned to a crisp.

Parsnip is up!

Parsnip will go at it with the scorpion whip

Whip Hit: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 4 + 1 = 19
Whip Damage: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Parsnip chants, "go team!"

Ok, my licensing exam and all applications to the state and other agencies that went along with it are finally done! Lets finish this module!

Also forgot to post this...

Parsnip whips one of the skeletons into pieces.

Skelly 4 fires an arrow at Elenial...

Skelly4: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Elenial and Shoris are up!

Parsnip whips one of the skeletons into pieces.

It would be impossible to overestimate the unlikelihood of such an event reoccurring, so you should all note in your personal logs that you were present to witness this!

Shoris moves to the other side of the chariot and readies an action to acid dart if the skeletons move closer.

Elenial swings her flail at the Skeleton in front of her.
Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23 Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

+1/+1 for Bardsong.

Apparently my posts were eaten last night...

Elenial hits Skelly 1, sending bits of bone flying off in every direction, but it is not quite enough to kill it, even with the enhancement from the bard song.

Skelly 1 attacks back...

Skelly 1 claw1: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Skelly 1 claw2: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14

... but both attacks miss.

Parsnip and Rowanna are up!

Finding herself out of useful spells, Rowanna moves back 30 feet and pulls out her sling, tossing a silver bullet at the skeleton due north of her position afterwards.

Sling: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3

Attack the next Skeleton! If one's damaged, that one then.

Whip Hit: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 1 = 9
Whip Damage: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Elenial attacks the same skeleton again.
Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20 Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

"Nice swing Elenial!"

"Hit 'em again!"

"Come on Elenial, you can do it!"

"Perhaps if you leaned into it a bit?

"C'mon Skelly, what ar you waiting for!

"Are you sure you're using that thing right?"

The final skeleton falls.

You move on. This long, low corridor is decorated with hieroglyphs and carvings depicting kings, gods, and sphinxes in orderly geometric rows.

In order to speed things up, I am just going to have you go door by door.

You open the door directly in front of you. Carved nature scenes cover this chamber’s walls, depicting humanoid figures hunting a wide variety of prey—crocodiles, elephants, hippos, leopards, lions, and even stranger beasts. An open sarcophagus lies at the far end of the room. Two creatures stand by it.

An armored skeleton stands near the sarcohpagus in a battle-ready pose, its weapon held high as cold blue light shines in its eye sockets.

[Knowledge Religion DC 12]This is a skeletal champion. It has darkvisioin, channel resistance, and DR/bludgeoning. It is immune to cold and has undead traits. [/spoiler]

The other creature appears to be some sort o undead leopard.

The party is up!

Actually, once we defeated the skeletons, Rowanna was going to suggest the group rests so that we can refresh our spell before moving on since she's running low on those.

Knowledge(trained): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Parsnip will break out with the bardsong!

I'm going to wait to find out if we can rest long enough to get spells back before posting.

After the rest

Knowledge Religion: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Knowledge Religion: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23

"Watch out, this guy is a skeletal champion! Use bludgeoning weapons! Be careful with the cat! It carries a disease, and has a piercing howl! Use fire on it!"

Resting is fine, just say something when you wish to do it, and modify your spells accordingly.

Thanks. I thought we'd have a break between to encounters or I would have mentioned it earlier. Spells updated now. Rowanna also casts Mage Armor before continuing.

With the enemies so far away, Rowanna waits to hex the cat once it gets in range.

Readied Action: If the cat comes within 30', attempting to place a Misfortune Hex on it. DC 16 Will save.

Elenial takes out her light flail and gets into the room. double move
