***OVERSEER ANNOUNCEMENT***

A high-pitched buzz pervades the museum, rising in frequency to the point of being inaudible. A moment later, a rolling boom echoes through the museum like thunder, and the glowing wards around the museum begin to fade.

@Table GMs: The “Failing Wards” condition on page 9 is now in effect.

Cup watches as the Wards fall. “Yay!” She cheers. “We did it!”

Okay, not really... But it’s time to move inside the Museum.

“D, let’s just head inside and kick butt. Lead us to somewhere where we can make a difference!”

With the wards having faded, you head past the Sergeant and into the museum where Sir D had scouted the majestic blue lions. Long shadows cast by ruined displays and broken furniture litter the floor. A humanoid-shaped figure made of shattered clockwork lies slumped over a bench. Above, an elaborately painted sign reads “Crusader’s Chronicles.”

The two blue lions prowl about the area, turning their gaze on Cup as she approaches.

"Hmm, more intruders?" The lion's soft voice bounces along the walls.

Cup knows her planar creatures, and knows that these are dweomercats. The dweomercat circles Cup, its ethereal tail bouncing on her shoulder. "They look too harmless to be causing any trouble here. I assume they are simply museum visitors, here to see Nigel's collection. Or perhaps to quell the mayhem. What brings you here, and do you have any idea what's with the crazed clockwork men turning on us?"

The dweomercat yawns luxuriously, setting down at Cup's feet. "Please, do something about those constructs, and the owlbears next door. I'm feline tired."

The other hops back onto the exhibit area and freezes in place with its paw raised. "How do I look? Pawsitively stunning, right?"

Owlbears are next door, care to fire away, Sir D?

Under a sign that reads “The Shining Armory,” priceless Shining Crusade artifacts displayed on pedestals creak and move by some unseen force. Eerie light seems to dart between the objects while the din of a raging battle echoes throughout the chamber. The central feature is a low, artificial hill atop which stand two stuffed owlbears surrounded by shattered undead foes. Each of the beasts wears chainmail barding and an orange-and-black caparison depicting a stylized owlbear.

A dead man dressed in furs lies on the floor before a suit of fullplate armor.

D starts the battle by whipping a blast of sand at the nearest animated owlbear, cracking its metal breastplate. The two creatures turn their mechanical bodies to face the intruder...

Sirettis shudders at the avalanche of cat puns. "Let us handle the owlbears." She lets her hair drop before proceeding.

As the owlbears activate, Sirettis will form a Snowball with Isa's blessing. She hurls it at the Owlbear with the Green barding.

D and Sirettis double team the green-armored owlbear with a frozen sand blast, a slab of its shoulder freezing and subsequently shattering into bits.

The creature rushes forward, and Uesugi bounds forward. The owlbear opens its metal teeth-lined mouth, and bites Uesugi as he moves through its threatened area.
Bite: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 272d6 + 6 ⇒ (1, 5) + 6 = 12

Mr Peppers continues to sleepwalk through the museum, stepping just right and avoiding things perfectly, almost as if he knows what's coming. "Its just not the same, I feel like we're cheating almost."

What's the knowledge roll on these owlbears? I don't remember if they were like golems and have unbeatable SR. If spells work then magic missile below

"Hey! Keep your beak to yourself, there, friend!" Gallix rushes forward to back up his samurai buddy and takes a swing at the owlbear with his super-hard, razor sharp adamantine cestus.

Spells work and Arcana is the right skill. No SR or resistances, though being constructs, they have hardness (unless you have a super-hard, razor sharp adamantine cestus).

Gallix leaps up to owlbear height and delivers a solid uppercut. The creature falls back on the museum floor, causing the entire room to shudder.

Mr. Peppers targets the remaining owlbear and pelts it five times with his magical machine gun.

Robot, or SHARK?!?!?!?

Cup finds a token with the Glyph of the Open Road just next to the fallen owlbear. "Hey! I've seen one of these before, it's an Aid Token! Maybe I can impart some of my planar knowledge into it and pass it over to another group of Pathfinders who might be worse off than us!"

Kn (Planes): 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (12) + 23 = 35

Cup attaches Earth, Wind, Water, Fire: With Your Powers Combined pocket edition to the token, and throws it into a portal with the name GM Dennis signed on it.

"There we go. Now where was I..."

She begins to sing again just as she had done many times before.

Sirettis is glad to see one construct defeated... but she doesn't like the other one lumbering up to her.

Noticing Uesugi's injuries, she steps back and lets her hair soak into Uesugi's bite wound. Some break off and begin slowly knitting his flesh back together.

Uesugi has Fast Healing 5 for the next 4 rounds.

Darn hard corners on tables! That could’ve been a 5ft step of death!

Gallix moves out from behind the display table and moves between the remaining construct and tall, dark, and threatened. ”Hey Pep, you may wanna get back, buddy. These things don’t mind their food squishy.” As he cuts off the owlbear’s charge, Gallix reels back with the old adamant cestus, and gives the beastie a sucker punch to the gut.

The owlbear wavers and stumbles as Gallix, D, and Mr. Peppers unleash an onslaught of attacks. Uesugi charges ahead, dodges the fangs of the construct, then finishes off the creature by jumping up to its height and bringing its blade down to the ground, severing it lengthwise.

Upstairs, gears, glass, and chunks of wax litter the polished wood floor under a sign that proclaims “Scars of the Lich.”

Okay, i can't -not- do this.
We're in some time loop anyway.

The body rises, spins around like a ballerina on red bull, then slams into the damaged blue guardian.

D. then moves away.

Conveniently the others didn't see that.

Gallix looks at the barrier between him and the constructs, and a memory of some serious pain comes back to him. ”Oh man! I remember this place! Man I got walloped here. Okay, better plan this time, don’t stand by the entrance to the open area!” Gallix lopes off, making his way toward the far end of the exhibit hall to give himself a clear lane to charge the constructs if they come out of the enclosure. He raises his fists and stands ready to fight back if they come out at him.

Move, then ready an attack with combat expertise and lunge to give me reach.

“Yeah, we don’t want you walloped, Gallix!”

Cup sings,

♫ I’m here with the Red Arm
Want to keep my buddies from harm
The museum to investigate
(How we got here I can’t relate)
Oh who would wanna be here?

Yeah Nigel called he started saying
Pathfinders come or I’ll be praying
So here we came without delaying
Not a minute to be lost
Not a moment to consider the costs

So Gallix starts a swinging
And you know I’m a going to be singing
And D will bash them dead
While Uesugi collects their heads
Yeah Valsin wants us to be here

Yeah Nigel called he started saying
Pathfinders come or I’ll be praying
So here we came without delaying
Not a minute to be lost
Guess we better listen to the boss....

The Red Arm is on top of its game
Maybe because the Museum is the same
With Pep’s scowls and Sirettis’s hair
You know we’re the team with flair
Honey, the Red Arm is here! ♫

Robot, or SHARK?!?!?!?

Uesugi heeds Gallix's advice, and stands with him at the far end of the museum hall, readying his blade. "Barbarian, let us stand prepared with fists and blade ready to cut down even the most sturdy of foes."

Gallix and Uesugi watch as the blue-armored clockwork guardian floats into the air, freezes, and then slams down into the floor at several times the speed of gravity, reducing the construct to nothing more than a pile of gears, springs, and scrap.

Shield Bash, charge: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 19 + 2 = 231d6 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
Thanks to Cup's inspiration, Gallix's adamantine cestus lands and sends a shower of sparks across the floor as the guardian comes charging at him. After landing his punch, Gallix dodges left to avoid the huge metal shield coming at his face. Uesugi's blade misses its mark.

Mr Peppers pauses to take a good look at the remaining metal guardian. "I know these are familiar but I can't quite recall everything..."

He shrugs his shoulders, causing his amazing hair to bounce luxuriously and shine with a glorious sheen. Then he fires off more missiles.

Sirettis casts Ear-Piercing Scream and then yells at the remaining construct. This deals Sonic Damage: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 4, 3) = 12 damage and dazes it for 1 round. (Fort Save DC 17 to halve the damage and not be dazed. Then again, it IS a construct so I assume it won't be dazed.)

As the construct's attack misses its mark, a wicked grin spreads across Gallix's face. "Now you're mine, robo-boy!" He quickly steps around his metallic foe and calls out to Uesugi, "Just like old times, 'Sugi! Step on down and let's turn this guy into a scrap metal sandwich!"

***OVERSEER ANNOUNCEMENT***

After a loud crack and a ripple of arcane energy, silence falls across the museum as the construct guards freeze in place and haunted relics drop to the ground. Nigel’s voice rings out, magically projected throughout the museum: “We’ve disabled the magical security measures. Since we haven’t found the thieves yet, they must be hiding in my third-story study. Please subdue them; they have much to answer for!”

Nigel Aldain’s announcement echoes through a museum littered with shattered clockwork and toppled exhibits. There’s no question that the Pathfinders have quelled the building’s defenses, and perhaps the peaceful silence will set whoever hides on the third floor at ease.

@Table GMs: You have until March 18 to run Part C on page 14. The “Peace in the Museum” condition on page 16 is in effect.

With the stairs to the upper study now disabled of its magical trap, you follow Nigel's instructions to the top floor. The mahogany walls and domed, plaster ceiling both show signs of heavy damage. Most of the luxurious furniture and the crystal chandelier are intact. The contents of cabinets and bookcases lie strewn about the floor. A small wooden panel near the door hangs open, revealing an arcane sigil covered in scorch marks.

A Kellid woman dressed in furs with intricate scars all over her body steps forward. She holds a hand up and says, "... Stay back. We are members of the Twinhorn following, and we have only come to retrieve what was stolen from us." She pauses while speaking, a confused covering her face. "Have I not told you this already?"

A towering figure steps forward; his translucent red form is that of a man clad in heavy armor and wielding twin warhammers. "Medda, perhaps the chaos in the museum is getting to you. They must be in league with the thieves; they should die for crossing us."

The man’s voice sounds hollow and unnaturally loud, and as he speaks, the chandelier glows with a dull light.

The woman, Medda, puts a hand on the figure’s arm and says, “Maybe we should give them a chance to explain themselves, Anok.”

“Oh hello.” Cup looks up at the angry looking Kellids. “We’re Pathfinders... not with the musuem except to sometimes clean up the messes they make. Can you tell us about what was stolen from you? We want to help you.”
