Yes, Larkin enters into your threaten area, but that does not provoke AOO until he moves out of it.

Waiting for Taariik's post.

Taarik concentrates and uses one of his supernatural abilities to turn into a shadow and effectively become invisible for a couple of seconds. Then he moves past his female opponent and tries to appear in their back!

Acrobatics : 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15

After Dissolution’s Child: Once per day, you may change your appearance to look as if you were little more than a 4-foot-tall area of shadow. Your physical form still exists and you are not incorporeal—only your appearance changes. This works like invisibility, except it only lasts 1 round per level (maximum 5 rounds). This is a supernatural ability. This racial trait replaces shadow magic.

Yep but now that have moved up its hard for his to get out of my reach.

Patros bleeds out onto the alley floor. Endor takes up position behind Ito and casts a protective spell. Taariik disappears from sight but can't past Deandre's combat stance. [needed DC19]

Maru sends a crossbow bolt into Larkin's stomach. The squirrely man decides it's not a good day to die and withdraws over the rooftops.

Leadford sneers at Ito, "Big paladin down, now little paladin!"

greataxe: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 201d10 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8 hit!

Round: 4
Maru, hp 9 [shoots Larkin]

Halli [ou]
Deandre
Larkin [out]
Patros, hp 14 -3-5-14-1 [dying]
Endor, hp 11
Taariik, hp 7 [-2 con,invisible]

Ito retaliates with a blow at Leadford with his longsword.

Longsword: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Burning t-shirt reroll with 1 GM star

Longsword: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 1 = 9

Well, that settles that then.

stabilize: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

1d20 ⇒ 4

Deandre stands her ground and swings blindly on Taariik's position and finds nothing.

<Make it count! Teamwork! Strategy! Abilities! Bad scenario to TPK on.>

Cast stabilize on Patros.

"Live to fight another day."

How difficult is it to climb up? I didn't see a climb check for Larkin -- what would I need to do?

DC10 to Climb, double move. You're right I forgot to show his climb in the thread. Everyone can take an auto success on any skill used next.

<Ledford is going to delay and act with Deandre, so Ito you are up too.>

So can I do an accelerated climb to get on the roof in a move action using that auto-success? I'd like to get up on the roof and cast telekinetic projectile at Ledford, if I can do so without soft cover, otherwise Deandre.

1d20 + 3 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 3 + 1 - 4 = 17
damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Ito swings at Leadford again (if he is down from Maru I will redirect to Deandre).

Longsword: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

<Waiting on Taariik>

Using the auto success to get through the square of Deandre.

Taarik’s shadowy form reappears and he tries to move through Deandre’s square again. Then he draws his crossbow.

Endor stops Patros' bleeding with divine healing. Taariik tumbles behind Deandre. Maru takes to the low roof and fires a blast at Ledford, Ito comes in with a sword and takes him down.

Deandre swipes at Taariik but misses. Cursing at her inept henchmen, she channels a wave of negative energy.

Aoo vs Taariik: 1d20 ⇒ 2
CNE: 1d6 ⇒ 1 all WIL vs DC11

everyone up! Ito take Aoo on Deandre, >50% hits

Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25

Maru ignores the feeble wave of negative energy.

She takes a step forward on the roof, reloads her crossbow, and fires at Deandre, but misses entirely.

1d20 + 3 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 1 - 4 = 5

"Oh, seashells!"

Will : 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Taarik loads his crossbow, steps back and shoots at Deandre.

Crossbow, pbs : 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 4 + 1 = 18
Crossbow, pbs, damage : 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
d50> : 1d100 ⇒ 52

Will save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Endor moves up and tries to impale her.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28
Damage: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
Damage: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
Damage: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

Will Save: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (20) + 0 = 20

Ito slashes at her as she casts some spell or other.

AoO Vs Deandre: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

He then slashes again on the backswing.

Longsword: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

In concerted effort, the recruits shoot and run Deandre through and through. "#&*^$@#%^ Pathfinders..." She won't be coming back - ever.

You check the Aspis bodies then pick up Patros out of the gutter and head back at the Grand Lodge. There, you are met shortly by Ambrus Valsin, who assures you that your attackers will be investigated by the proper authorities and then reimburses your group for the trouble. He then gets down to business.

"Congratulations. That sounds like a close call." Ambrus says, not quite smiling, though his mustache twitches a little. I'll have to hire better thugs next time. " You have proven not only your skill and responsibility, but also that you can handle yourselves in trouble. I cannot promise that your work in the Society will be without danger, but I can promise that your next mission will not be common errands for the Society, and might possibly take you beyond the city's walls. In fact a Venture-Captain has recently spoken to me about putting a group together for something, and I think your group would suit her mission just fine."

"For now our business is done. I'm sure some of you have other work to attend to, people to see, or barstools to warm. See the clerk on your way out for a reward for your service. I will contact you soon."
