Shackled City (Pathfinder) - GM_Chris

Game Master Chris Shannon 719

This will be the Shackled City adventure path using the Pathfinder rule set. However, the existing deities (i.e. St. Cuthbert, Pelor, Wee Jas) will not be converted to similar Golarion gods.

What happened with the civvies and guards?

What happened with the civvies and guards?

Good question.

Numerous civilians and guards were injured at City Hall and a couple civilians killed. There is some looting and vandalism for a couple hours, but it all ends when the mayor and Lord Vhalntru make a joint appearance announcing a three-month holiday for the new taxes. Additioanlly, the half-orc mercenaries are thanked for their service and dismissed from the guard. They leave the guard barracks and move out to the encampment outside the city.

Toffitt frowns as Maavu steams off. Who is pulling these strings? Vhalantru? The Smoking Eye? Are they one and the same?

"Maavu seems well intended, but I do not yet trust his motives."

Later, he smiles grimly at the news of the heroes tax moratorium, and the withdrawal of the half-orcs. "We should see if they go to the caverns that we cleared. If I'm right, Vhalantru will want his own force nearby." He sets about providing mundane care to the injured civilians and guards, and uses his own acupressure techniques to heal more intensive wounds, unless Cuthbert's chosen one (Atol, of course) steps in with his more numerous prayers.

He sends notes by messenger to the Lord Mayor and Skellerang. I hope this finds you well. My companions and I did our best to soothe the crowd this day, and I only regret that it came to violence. If you have some knowledge of the origins of the fell fire beast, I would be most happy to help discover its sinister source.

In the later hours, Toffitt finds Carts performing at his cabaret. He waits for him to wrap up, and they walk home together. over 50%=Carts' flat 1d100 ⇒ 20


About 10 pm, one of the worst sounds that can be heard in a town catches everyone's attention. Bells ring loudly, people shout, something is on fire.

It's not hard to see the glow of flames coming from Minuta's Board by the lake. Assuming everyone rushes to the scene, you find the building almost entirely engulfed. Half-orcs are chopping away at the building trying to bring it down completely to prevent the it from spreading. A half-orc captain stands holding half a melted sword staring into the flames.

I'll leave it to you as to how you arrive. An in person game could flow more about people arriving at different times, but I find I don't have the patience for it in PbP.

Everyone up. Finneas twice. Nothing happens with the fire in Round 1.

The red squares are engulfed in flame. The green lines are windows. The double green lines are doors (VW/11-12, PQ/24, and ABAC/24). The structure is a single story for my sanity with nice high 20' vaulted ceilings. No one else is shown since it would just clutter the map at this point.

There is already a bucket brigade going, but it is not outpacing the growth of the fire.

Seeing his companions discuss the evils of fire and how they can cudgel, talk, pour water on it or feed it to Atol in order to put it out, Finneas readies himself for carrying larger buckets.

I have Finneas as wearing his armor. Given the riot from yesterday and how those half-orcs got themselves murderized he probably wouldn't feel safe going out without it, recognized or no.

Atol quickly casts Resist Energy, Communal and touches all who are near (70 minutes / number of targets). He then moves up to the building and looks through the window.

The place is definitely on fire.

Hearing sounds, Glimmil foregoes armor, but grabs his hammer and shield as he leaps onto Cog and rushes to the scene.

Once there, Glimmil rubs his eyes and glances up at the sky.

"Of course, NOW it's not raining!"

"We better see if anyone's stuck inside!"

Glimmil swiftly advances on Cog to gaze into the building.

Cog wants to go in, but something is coming out.


Atol's communal resist energy will have reached everyone.

Parts of the building collapse, but the fire seems to grow even larger. Unfortunately for Glimmil and Atol, the truth soon is apparent as the flames swing at them.

The half-orcs cease their chopping and back away. The bucket brigade falls apart as the citizens flee.

Dyrant will fly to V10, 35' up.

Holding aloft his holy symbol, Dyrant will stare good at E1, causing doubt to enter the creature's fiery mind.

Conscious of his current health after only two swings (and his current near-nakedness) Atol withdraws. He humorously pulls out his cudgel as he does so.

"The fire is fighting back! I fear more of the flaming creatures that we fought before. Be on your guard!"

So much for casting Create Water to help put out the fire!

How evil am I? Yes. That evil.

Atol underestimates the reach of the fire elemental and it smacks him as he tries to get away.

The withdraw gets you out of the first square, but not the second. BTW, you added up the to-hits, not the damage. Atol had only taken 27. Now 37.


Male Human (Per +7 | Fort +17 Ref +13 Will +22 | AC 29 (f28/t15) | CMD 22)

Ahhh - thanks! If he took a hit, then he'll go ahead and do something at the end of his single move if that's OK to retcon.

Atol casts Prayer.

Cog tries to lead Glimmil into the burning building, but finally obeys Glimmil and moves toward the elemental. In the struggle, Glimmil fails to hit the elemental. Without his armor, Glimmil is an easy target for the elemental who quickly smashes him twice (16 damage).

Finneas misses the other elemental, which in turn misses Toffitt as he tumbles in. The elemental swings twice at Toffitt, but only connects once (9 damage).

Dyrant will cast Angelic Motes upon E1, seeking to daze the creature with Cuthbert's fluff. Will Save DC 20 vs Daze. Made each round until success.

GM Chris:

Forgive the SoD-like effect. Not sure this qualifies as jerky or not. I think the point of this encounter is the fire...and these elementals aren't bosses.

It takes two rounds and a 4th lvl spell to have a 10% chance of preventing attacks....which isn't too silly, I hope.

"Oo-oof! Hey!"

Glimmil tugs at Cog's collar, trying to ascertain why his companion was headed into the burning building instead of heroically fighting with him against the giant fire monster.

Dyrant dazes one of the elementals and Glimmil takes advantage of the situation to land a critical hit against the creature. Toffitt does a bit of damage to the other elemental while Finneas misses it. The elemental takes a couple swipes at Toffitt, but Atol's prayers keep him safe. The elemental takes a 5' step back into the flames--thinking the flames will keep Toffitt at bay.

Glimmil gets the impression that Cog is trying to help someone and as more of the building collapses, a boy trapped beneath a beam is revealed. He might have been screaming at one point, but now lies unconscious or dead from the heat and smoke.

Waiting for Toffitt's move, will determine what Finneas does.

Also I hate to point this out because these guys are way out of our weight class but you can't crit, flank, or sneak attack elementals.


Forgot it's will save also. 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 - 4 = 6
So, E1 still dazed, but only 9 damage

Toffiitt steps up diagonally to the creature, making space for Finn. Slashes out viciouslyish.

Atol stays against the wall of the burning building and channels energy for 4d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 6, 2) = 15 worth of healing.

The fire is getting out of control while we fight these creatures! What a waste! I hope the whole city doesn't burn because of this. Atol grits his teeth.

Waiting to post until after Glim...not sure if Glim is going to save the boy or mention him to Dyrant.

"A boy! There's a boy trapped inside!" Glimmil shouts, while looking up at the large blazing fire.

Hmmm, it seems I've dazed it. Now's the time for heroics!

"To the boy!"

Glimmil guides Cog into the fiery building towards the boy, and if there is time, pulls him onto Cog in his place while dismounting.

Ride DC20 (to swift dismount): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22

From above Glim, a loud facepalm slap echoes in the streets.

By the teats of the lamia!

Dyrant will fly to W16' and glare at E2.

Will Save DC 20 vs. -4 to AC for 8 rounds. If save, then -4 for 1 round. Heck, maybe it will encourage Finn to stop fanning the flames with his sword and actually hit the thing. ;)

"Aralynn, are there more trapped inside?"

Dyrant and Aralynn will look for other survivors.

1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 23 Perception

No one else seen.
1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20 will save
A couple hours until I'm home and can post next turn.


Glimmil and Cog run up to the boy and start to pull at the beam on top of the boy. Toffitt slices the elemental three times, but only two of the slices doing any damage. However, it's more than Finneas who continues to slash the flames and not the elemental. Dyrant gazes at the elemental who resists the power of St. Cuthbert.

Atol's prayers save Toffitt from being hit by the elemental though.

Round 4 Recap
Toffitt = 21 - hits 3x for a total of 6 damage
Atol = 18 - Channels
Glimmil = 14 - moves in, dismounts, strength check pending. Cog could assist.
Dyrant = 11 - Moves. Gazes.
Round 5
Finneas = 26 - fans the flames
Fire creatures = 23
E1 Dazed (9 damage) 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 - 4 = 17 - will save. Still dazed.
E2 (5 damage)
1d20 + 15 - 1 ⇒ (10) + 15 - 1 = 24
1d20 + 15 - 1 ⇒ (1) + 15 - 1 = 15

Party up

"Cog! Help me with thi--hunhh-is!"

Cog Str Assist (vs DC10 for +2?): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12
Glimmil Str vs DC20: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

"Garl's Golden Glitter, this is heavy! FINNEAS! I NEED YOU BIG GUY!" Glimmil shouts as loudly as he can.

Round 5, Init 14

Meeting Cog's supremely intelligent gaze, Glimmil nods to his companion yet again. "We gotta do this boy. Finn might be busy putting that big angry fire out still. On three..."

Cog Str Assist (vs DC10 for +2?): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Glimmil Str: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12

Sweating from the exertion and the heat, Glimmil looks worriedly at Cog and the boy.

Toffitt slices further into the walking fire that is with him.

"Glim! Take care of the firebeast! Leave this one to me."

Dyrant will fly down to the child, grasp his holy symbol, and speak the prayerspell of Archon's Movement, moving Dyrant, the boy, and Aralynn to Y7ish.

Aralynn, seeing a faithful future Cuthbertine, casts CLW on the boy.

1d8 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11 healing

5 more rounds of daze.

Finn is after you in init order so has already missed even with the -4.

The child appears alive, but still trapped and still about to be consumed by flames.

Finneas steps forward, confident in the protection Atol has given him, and gets very angry with the fire.

Move 5' into flames to stand next to Toffitt. Rage.

After two great hits Finneas should roar something about Kord and not needing St. Cuthbert messing with his mojo.
