Thordak son of Throtgar's page

Hey guys,

I've been in this campaign from the beginning and I've really enjoyed playing with all of you, but my life has gotten too busy. I have a thesis to complete this year and I will not be able to continue the campaign. I want to thank all of you for a great time, but I am going to politely retire Thordak. I may try and meet up with you at a PFS convention sometime, but I will have to see. Until then, I wish you guys all the best!

I am not seeing much on the list that I can use. I currently use +1 Heirloom Breastplate. The heirloom gives me a -1 to my armor check penalty. I am wondering if I should try to enchant that further or take the Mithral Breastplate and enchant that. What do you guys think?

"Oi'm not sure aboot yae fellas, but Oi think it might be nice to take this guard's keys and make him worry a bit when he wakes up. Imagine his face if he woke up te find himself in a cell of his own!"

Thordak approaches the guard and looks for any keys hanging from his belt or such. He then tries to lift the keys from the guard.

Sleight of Hand 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

Thordak is all updated and ready to continue.

Hit Points 1d10 ⇒ 7

Glimdraath 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14
Damage 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

"There yae go Glimdraath. Don't panic on me. Oi told ye you would get a turn!"

"The bigger they are, the harder they fall!" Thordak remarks, until he realizes that he is also enlarged. ". . . Except me, of course!"

ROUND 1

Thordak immediately calls for shocker and it swiftly appears in his hands. He then takes aim at the ogre (-F,-G/1,2) and let's the bolts fly.

Just as swiftly, he reloads again and prepares to loose another.

Thordak keeps his crossbow loaded and follows up the stairs behind Mantooth. When he gets out into the storeroom, he takes cover at Q23 behind the stack of wood. He stays very serious and does not speak a word.

Stealth 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22
Perception 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (13) + 14 = 27

Once in position, Thordak readies an attack against any evil creature he sees, especially if it looks like a sniper.

Round 8 & 9

Thordak reloads his crossbow and proceeds to follow Mantooth in a short processional up the stairs.

"Oi think this one is bit more clever than our usual villains, but Oi doubt he knows who he's dealing with. Let's take this one down! Damn! Did he put these poky things on the stairs?!!"

Round 7

"What is happening in there?"

"These guys have been hoggin all of the fighting! Oi don't have anything else te cleave in here!"

Thordak reloads his crossbow, steps up to the fallen hell hound and fires a bolt into its head.

Shocker 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21
Damage 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

"All Oi got to do was fire a bolt at illusions and a burn't out hell dog!"

Round 6

Thordak takes Shocker in his hand, aims carefully at the war adept and his mirror images, and then pulls the trigger to release the bolt, trying to take them out one shot at a time.

Damage 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Thordak races into the Coffin maker's shop and follows the noise to the battle. Double move to N12.

"See yeah later, Tirion. Oi'm going te go check out these coffins and see if there are any that hobgoblins can fit into!"

Round 4

Thordak will scurry across next to Tirion and prepare to enter through the door at S18.

"Do ye see any sign o' the sniper yet, Tirion? Oi ran as fast as Oi could and he didn't take a shot. Oi must be too fast fer him! That er we've got the wrong place. Oi can't see anyone dying te get in this place."

Round 3

Thordak races across the street to U25 (double move) and hopes the sniper does not get a shot off against him.

Round 2

Thordak runs around the building to Z31 and takes cover around the building.

Stealth 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19

Round 1

Thordak double moves to V1, hoping for some cover behind the building. He has his crossbowbow, Shocker, loaded and he prepares to fire at the sniper if it appears in the window.

"Oi'm ready, my dark friend! If Oi spot him, Oi'll take a shot at em with Shocker. He won't ignore that easily!"

Thordak reloads his crossbow with a heavy bolt and proceeds down the street ready to find the coffin maker's shop. He moves with stealth and stays alert to danger as he goes.

Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21
Perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (14) + 14 = 28

"Oi think Oi could put the fires out. Ye just need some dwarven ingenuity!"

Thordak gets right into fighting fires wherever he can!

ROUND 1

Thordak double moves to (K/L, -5/-6) where he prepares to land his axe in the rear end of Abithriax.

"Prepare te meet Glimdraath, big boy!"

Sorry I've been absent so long. Life has just gotten a little too busy!

"Alright, boys, good luck to all of you. Oi expect tae see you all in one piece when we are done this fight! Now let's go and take down Abithriax!"

Thordak draws his crossbow and loads it. Then he exits through the side door and proceeds north along the side of the cathedral in an effort to try and sneak up on the dragon.

Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17

"Now come here, Master Dwarf, and let me take care of those wounds."

"Aye, thank ye, my dear! Oi'm much obliged. But ye don't need te worry about Mantooth. Ahh'll be sure te keep him out o' trouble."

The dwarf gives the paladin a sly grin.

"Oi Suppose makin my way to the Cathedral would be a good idea. These wounds will be the death of me if Oi don't do something about them."

As the guard flees down the street, Thordak yells out, "Hey, get back here, yae coward! Yer not one of the House Kaal Guards, yae have tae stay and fight!"

ROUND 2

"Stop hoggin all the space, Mantooth, and make some room. Oi'm comin in tae take some shots with Shocker!"

After his first shot, he rapidly reloads another bolt and prepares to fire again.

Round 1

Thordak pulls out his heavy crossbow, Shocker, and loads it with a bolt.

"Oi'm ready. Let's see them try and get passed me!"

Thordak readies his crossbow to fire at any enemy that flies overhead and/or climbs over the barricade.

"Before we take off again, Let me try to get me burns cleared up!"

Thordak takes out his wand of cure light wounds and begins using it to heal himself and any others who may need help.

Cure Light Wounds on Thordak 5d8 + 5 ⇒ (1, 4, 8, 5, 7) + 5 = 30

"Ahh that feels much better!"

Cure Light Wounds on Mantooth 7d8 + 7 ⇒ (2, 3, 5, 3, 3, 7, 2) + 7 = 32

"Tirion, get over here, Oi think ye could use a few taps on this wand."

"Oi can't forget mae bardic friend! Oi hope yae'll feel better with this! Tell me, my friend, did they call yae Red because yae like tae play with fire?!"

Cure Light Wounds on Red 9d8 + 9 ⇒ (4, 5, 1, 1, 7, 5, 1, 3, 7) + 9 = 43

26 charges used.

I'm sorry if I screwed up, guys. I did not mean to see Red die. This whole thing just took me by surprise I guess. I still enjoy this campaign. Real life has just gotten a bit crazy and I have not been able to post as often as I use to.

As the dragon lifts off the ground and flies away, Thordak races over to his fallen comrade to see what help he can offer.

"Don't die on us, Bard! We need ye, alive and well! Oi can't believe Oi let this happen to you! It's mae fault. Oi just wasn't fast enough!"

Also, with your HP, a potion of CLW is a bit of a waste of an action. Move in and hit the dragon as hard as you can would be a better choice. Don't forget you have extra speed from haste.

I plan to attack the dragon at my nearest opportunity. I was just not sure that going through the fiery terrain would be the wisest course, even with haste. I thought I would be stuck out in the open ready to be attacked again. So instead, my plan was to move around the perimeter of the fiery region. However, since I could not get all the way there, I thought staying behind cover and trying to get my hit points up was the best alternative. I would have preferred something with more curative power than a potion of cure light wounds, but that is all I had on me. Sorry if it is not the best plan. :(

ROUND 1

Thordak moves for cover behind the rocks (Move to I-21). He then pulls out a potion of cure light wounds and quickly guzzles it down.

Cure Light Wounds1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

"Oi've got tae have mae strength tae take down a dragon!"

Thordak nimbly dives to to avoid the dragon's fire.

Reflex 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

"Ho, Ho! Oi almost got toasted by that lizard!"

hp: 41/105

"So what dae yae propose doing to draw the dragon down? Oi don't think we have any dragon biscuits in our supplies. Mebbae a large pile of gold would draw him out!"

Round 9

Thordak unleashes Glimdraath on any giant still standing.

Glimdraath 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (13) + 14 = 27 (+8/+3 BAB, +3 Strength, +2 Magic, +1 Haste)

Round 7
hp: 68/105

Glimdraath the axe likes Rebel Red's idea and will lead the giant dwarf to attack the giant if it stands upright, else it stabs the annoying hobgoblin at Thordak's back. If both creatures are down, then Glimdraath will guide Thordak to move to N-18 and attack the next giant.

Glimdraath 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17 (+8/+3 BAB, +3 Strength, +2 Magic, +1 Haste)
