The Tomb of Horrors Part 1 (4e) - Group 1

Game Master Rev Rosey

The monster that is Tomb of Horrors.
Two groups are going through this.
For some reason I set up a second game thread for Group 2, but not for Group 1.


1,251 to 1,300 of 3,395 << first < prev | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 | 27 | 28 | 29 | 30 | 31 | next > last >>

Female Human

Ah, sorry, missed that.


Please see the discussion thread.

Yes - Lyan is sitting right here, posting from the other side of the room to me - a slightly surreal experience :)

A burst of radiance explodes from the warrior maiden and the light sears flesh from the bones of B2 even as it is pulled inexorably closer to her.

Paging Levana.


Levana - I hope all is well with you. Do you think you could let me know if you'd still like to play? It's not a problem if you'd rather not (rl comes first, after all), but I would be glad to know if there's a problem.


M Hobgoblin Battlemind/Quicksilver Demon 17 (Foe Killer)

Posting now, as I'll be traveling the next 19 hours or so.

Drawing on his inner reserves, Lyan eludes the bodak facing him, pausing only to swing at the bloodied opponent as he moves.

Parting Shot, aug4, shift 6 and attack on the way. Shift to L20, attack B2. Mark if hit.

1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 16 - 2 = 242d10 + 10 ⇒ (2, 10) + 10 = 22

Miss. Save vs dazed weakened

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

Much better. HP 98, Surge 7, AP 1, PP 3


Levana - I'm sorry to do this, but this game is already lagging horribly and I need to kick it along. If you don't post within the next 24 hours, I'll have to make the assumption that you can no longer play.

The elf extends her hand and calls upon the spirits at her command making B2 vulnerable to her allies.

Ravaging Shot (AC). On hit target gains vulnerable 5 all attacks to end Levana's next turn.
1d20+19=33. Hits. 2d10+20=30

Lyan scoots across the chamber and pulls himself together.

Undeterred, the bodaks turn their attention to Akemi. B2 slams its greataxe into her, weakening the avenger before shifting away and B1 turns its death gaze on her, watching as she drops to the floor. B2 breathes deep as some of Akemi's life force passes into it.

Greataxe (AC). On hit target is dazed and weakened (se both)
1d20+21=36 - B2 v Akemi. Hits. 1d12+6=8 plus 1d8=4 necro
12 damage to Akemi

Death Gaze (Fort). On hit, weakened target drops to 0hp. Non-weakened targets lose a surge.
1d20+20=34 - B1 v Akemi. Hits.
Akemi on 0hp and out for the count

MAP

Bodaks have aura 5. Any creature that makes a melee or ranged attack against the bodak takes 5 necrotic damage before the attack roll and a -2 penalty to the attack roll.

B2 gains 15 temp hp thanks to Akemi dropping and is +1 to all attacks to end its next turn

Samson hurtles to Akemi's side and thumps her chest, forcing her back into consciousness before nodding at Norrin.

Inspiring Word on Akemi. Spend surge plus 3d6=8 hp.
Direct the Strike at Norrin.
Norrin please make a basic attack on B2 as well as your own attack.

Darwyn pummels B2 with his howitzer force balls.

The round thing is a pit, so neither B2 nor I have cover right?

5 necrotic damage.

Ranged Basic Attack targeting B2 (prime shot) 1d20 + 17 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 17 + 1 - 2 = 20 vs AC; 1d10+10 damage.

On his turn, Norrin withdraws to I18 and launches a
Biting Volley at B2 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (11) + 17 = 28 vs Reflex; 1d10 + 10 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + 10 + (3, 5) = 22 damage.

Round things are vats and do provide cover to both of you.

Norrin's arrow misses, and he moves swiftly around the vat to get a better shot out of the pernicious aura. B2 remains too quick for him and stays resolutely upright.

Lyan moves to draw the attention of the bodaks away from his weakened allies.

Move to H15. Minor: Battlemind's Demand aug1 to mark both bodaks. Flowing Weapon vs B1. Flubbed the die roller; missed. However, if either -- while adjacent to me -- attacks without including me, Mind Spike does force and psychic equal to the attacker equal to the damage done. Note that I will not use this for B2 unless he's attacking someone vulnerable to the gaze.


Lyan returns to the fray and recalls himself to the bodaks. Unable to resist the lure of the tempting hobgoblin, B2 swings at him once more.

Greataxe. On hit target is dazed and weakened (se)
1d20+21=38. Hits. 1d12+6=15 plus 1d8=6 necro (which Lyan will brush aside)
15 damage to Lyan and he is dazed and weakened (se both)

Samson recovers himself slightly and Darwyn sends more force into B2, seeking to finish the creature by simple attrition.

Magic Missle auto hit on B2

Disturbingly, the westernmost vat is showing signs of interest in the party, as green tendrils of smoke start to curl over the lip of the container.

Rev and all, RL has been crazy. My wife has gone into false labor a few times the past few weeks. I'm posting from the delivery room. This time it's the real thing. I'm going to be too busy to keep up and that's not fair to everyone else. I'm also starting a new job next week. I'd like to thank Rev and the rest of the party for the great PBP action. Feel free to deal with Levana as you see fit. Thanks again, Bmars3

Norrin moves up to the bodak while drawing his sunblade to strike.

5 necro damage.
Fading Strike @ B2 1d20 + 17 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 17 - 2 = 18 vs. AC; 1d8 + 7 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 7 + (6, 1) = 19 radiant damage. Hit: Norrin shifts 2 squares to K15.

Norrin moves around the vat to try and surround the bodak. As he does so, he notices a glint of silver around the creature's neck. Distracted, his blade misses his target.

Move - stand up. Forgot to add my +3 last time, not that it would have helped
1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8


Levana eases herself out of the pernicious aura surrounding the bodaks and attempts once more to finish off B2. Very much in the spirit of the Shadowfell, she conjures vast swarms of bats to afflict both bodaks.

Swarming Bats (Ref). Burst 2 within 10. Conjure zone of difficult terrain (enemies only). Enemies within zone grant CA. Sustain minor and can move zone 4 squares as a move action.
1d20+18=24 v B1. Miss.
1d20+18=28 v B2. Miss.

Undeterred, B1 moves out of the zone adjacent to the dazed warrior maiden and turns its baleful gaze on Samson.

Death Gaze (Fort). On hit weakened target drops to 0hp.
1d20+20=32. Hits.
Samson on 0hp, prone and dying.

"You and I," Lyan calls to the bloodied bodak as he gracefully moves into position.

Parting Shot vs B2, including shift to G13.
1d20 + 16 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 16 + 2 - 2 = 271d10 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
Nope. B1 and B2 still marked. Save:
1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
HP 98, Surge 7, AP 1, PP 2, ready to fight.


Lyan sets himself up to attack the bodak, but his recent experiences have muffled his reflexes and his normally sure aim is marred. Nonetheless, he regains control over his mind and body and readies himself.

For Samson, there is nothing to feel and nothing to see as life seeps away from him.

Death save: 1d20=6.
Save v dazed and weakened: 1d20=11.

Darwyn casts and anxious glance across at his old ally and speaks a single word in an arcane tongue. Samson's eyelids flicker as the word calls on his inner resources. Still down, still bloodied, he will yet live.

Minor: Majestic Word on Samson. Heals surge plus 2d6=5

Striding into the bats, he drives his blade into the bodak, which easily ducks aside, sneering slightly.

The One Sword (AC). On hit, make secondary attack v Will. If that hits, target dazed to end Darwyn's next turn.
1d20+16=17 ... crud.

Norrin weaves around the vats to H7 and launches another arrow at the closer bodak.

"Yer skin is thick as your face is twisted!"

Move Action + Skirmish Shot to reach H7
1d20 + 17 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 17 - 2 + 2 = 18 vs AC

Rapid-Fire Action
RBA @ B2 1d20 + 17 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 17 - 2 + 2 = 33 vs AC; 1d10 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 damage.

Norrin's combination of insults and arrows nearly fells B2, but enough unlife clings to the creature to keep it upright.

From the vat nearest to him, the half-orc notes the continued roiling. Tendrils start to sneak towards him, almost as though they were drawn by his living flesh.

ALL - note that Flickr is playing up. Map has not updated correctly, but Norrin is at H7.

Paging Akemi. Apologies for the delay - just started a new job.


Female Human

Minor - Healing Word on Samson. Spend a surge and heal and additional
3d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 4) = 16

Akemi invokes the healing powers of the divine to bring Samson back to the realms of the living.

Save:
1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12


Akemi's words bring Samson back from the brink, and she shakes the mental turmoil off at last. B1 is having none of that however and shifts to one side before slamming its greataxe into the fallen dragonborn again.

Greataxe (AC) v Samson. On hit, target is dazed and weakened (se both). CA because Samson is prone cancels out the -2 from Lyan's mark.
1d20+21=38 - B1 v Samson. Hits.
1d12+6=9 untyped plus 1d8=6 necro
15 damage to Samson and he is dazed and weakened (se both)

Levana maintains her hindering bat zone and moves towards the further exit.

Behind Akemi and B1, the portal entrance flickers and the battle is enlivened by the arrival of two more combatants.

Rothel/Lisbarr

Spoiler:

As the portal flicker clears, you see at once that you have come upon the source of the carnage you've been following so carefully. The pair find themselves almost nose to nose with a hollow-eyed undead battling with a warrior maiden over the prone form of an armoured dragonborn.

An elf seems to be making for the far end of the chamber and may be responsible for the swirling bats inhibiting another of the undead. Half hidden, a hobgoblin and a wizard fight the creature, while moving lightly around the edge of the bats, a half-orc has his bow at the ready.

Your quick summation ends with the realisation that of the three large vats in the room, one is active. Filled with a greenish mist, tendrils are emerging and moving among the warriors.

Let me know if you need any more information. You've both been added to the init list.

Rothel calmly absorbs the situation while he tries to gain his bearing as to what he's dealing with.

Religion check on the Bodaks 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 21, and Arcana check for what's brewing in the vat 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (15) + 17 = 32


Rothel's recognition of the bodaks is rudimentary.

Medium shadow humanoid, undead.

On the other hand, he realises just how dangerous the fog-filled vat may be. He also spots activity in the nearest vat. Slower to respond, it is starting to pour black necrotic tendrils into the room.

The eldritch essence contained in the vat reacts to the presence of living creatures. The green-filled vat appears to be composed of the raw planar essence of the Feywild. Its black-filled sibling contains the raw essence of the Shadowfell. You are aware that both vats will launch at attacks any moment.


Male Half-Elf Invoker/17 Speaker of the Word

Lisbarr makes a snap decision about who is friend and who is foe. He is not impressed by the Bodak immediately in front of him.

"We will help you!" He shouts assuming that those he has decided to side with will hear and understand.


Male Deva Shaman 17, Scion of Renewal

Rules question for Rev:
Considering what we are facing, and there being Necrotic in the area, I need clarification and can't find the rule. I have resist 11 necrotic, as does my spirit, so in the case of damage I know that if I don't take damage from an attack then I don't suffer the effects.

If the Aura, however, doesn't damage me or my spirit, will we still suffer the -2 penalty?

Also, my spirit takes 1/2 damage from ranged attacks, and has the resist 11.

Which comes first, the 1/2 damage then apply resistance, or apply resistance, then halve it?

Sorry for being a pain, I tend to rules lawyer and try to limit it outside my RL group (where we are all lawyers)


@Rothel

Spoiler:
I think you suffer the aura effect as that is not specifically necrotic. The damage is, but that won't affect you or your spirit.

When I'm applying halved damage to monsters with resistances, I halve first and then add the resistance. To keep is simple, apply the same way to you.

I'm used to rules lawyers - we have a couple in our home group and in any case prefer to know how we're all tackling these things up front.

Lyan is up.


M Hobgoblin Battlemind/Quicksilver Demon 17 (Foe Killer)

Parting Shot vs B2 AC, shifting to G12 first as part of the attack.
1d20 + 16 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 16 + 2 - 2 = 191d10 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19
No further actions, though Mind Spike if it violates the mark whlie adjacent to me.

Thrown off by the appearance of two more combatants, Lyan misses badly with his attack. "More for the party," he mutters.


Lyan misses and B2 takes the opportunity to hit him again, once more dazing and weakening the hobgoblin.

Greataxe (AC). On hit target is dazed and weakened (se both)

"Rhaz-Ahk, there is a purpose for your fury to present itself!" Rothel exclaims, his eyes flashing, as the wispy form of a man-tiger appears overhead of the swarmed Bodak. minor, Call Spirit Companion in the square above Bodak2 (H13 same square as monster, but in the air the square above him)

The spirit form swirls into a cloud of mist and encircles Lyan, transferring his rage.standard, Sly Fox Spirit, Lyan can make a basic attack as a free action, if he hits, Darwyn can make a basic attack as a free action.

While adjacent to the spirit, add +4 damage against bloodied enemies

Rothel then sidesteps the Bodak near him to pose enough threat that Akemi can harry the enemy. move, shift 1 square to F19 to give flank.

"Be wary! Those vats appear to be roiling with danger, step away from them, as those tendrils of energy appear to wish you ill." He states, as if it should be plain for all to see.

Spirit tactics:
The majority of my powers grant extra or free attack to the players, also he will almost always be 1 square up in the air, as that allows it to be adjacent to the most allies and the monsters at the same time.

I blame Flickr too. Especially as it's not working htis morning either. Grrrrrr.

Rothel - I'm going to use yellow to identify your spirit companion.

A snarling form of claw and sword appears above B2.

Lyan - free basic melee on it. +4 to damage on a hit.
Darwyn rolled a 1.

Samson rises groggily to his feet, but can't clear his head, while Darwyn backs cautiously out of range before spinning on his heels and blasting force into B2.

Samson stands and makes a save - 1d20=5. Fail.

Darwyn shifts and moves, uses AP and Magic Missile v B2. Darwyn now at M9

Lisbarr tries to assess his best move.

Lisbarr has resisit 10 necrotic BTW from his armour
Shift to E16

Penance Compelled against B1 vs Will 1d20 + 15 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 15 - 2 = 182d6 + 12 ⇒ (1, 1) + 12 = 14

In the unlikely event that that hits, the damage is radiant and the next time it deals damage before the end of Lisbarr's next turn, B2 will also take 9 radiant damage.

It is clearly Lisbarr's intention to get all his rubbish rolls over in the first round...


All - map is redone. I'd be grateful if you'd all take a look and confirm you're in the right places.

Lyan's granted attack misses the bodak and Lisbarr's attempt to put a stop to the obvious evil of B1 fares no better.

As Rothel has pointed out, the vats are becoming much more active now, doubtless delighted at the prospect of chowing down on living flesh for a change.

MAP

Bodaks have aura 5. Any creature that makes a melee or ranged attack against the bodak takes 5 necrotic damage before the attack roll and a -2 penalty to the attack roll.

Norrin
Akemi - BLOODIED
Levana

Yes, that is the correct location for Rothel and Rahz-Ahk.

Norrin is where he's supposed to be.

Claws spring from the ranger's armour the instant before he lashes out with sword and claw.

Twin Strike 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (14) + 17 = 31 vs AC; 1d8 + 2 + 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 2 + (6, 2) + 4 = 16 radiant damage. (sunblade)
1d20 + 17 ⇒ (3) + 17 = 20 vs AC; 1d8 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 4 = 12 damage. (claw)

Norrin shifts to F13. (Move) Invigorating Stride to use Second Wind, +2 to defences until start of next turn.

Norrin reduces B2 to chowder, moves further up the room and applies some basic first aid to himself. As the bodak falls, a mithril key tumbles to the ground.

Yep. Lisbarr is where he should be


Bump for Akemi.


Female Human

Minor- Deadly Calm (stance) - When I make 2 attack rolls vs OoE target and both would hit, it takes extra 6 damage. Minor - OoE vs B1. Defining Cut vs B1.
1d20 + 21 ⇒ (11) + 21 = 321d20 + 21 ⇒ (15) + 21 = 363d12 + 8 ⇒ (3, 11, 7) + 8 = 29
On a hit: Until the end of my next turn, the target takes 10 damage the first time it uses an attack other than a basic attack.

Akemi's body becomes the epitome of focused, relaxed concentration. She takes a rapid swing at the horror facing her.
