Game Master Gilthanis

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11

Noz immediately sprints into action running through the trees with draconic ferocity. He runs up to the edge of the river and soars through the air landing on the other side ready for action against the minotaur.

Kyras double moves out of the cave while drawing his longbow.

Hans moves as quickly as his legs can carry him, fighting his way through the undergrowth.

Double move.

The compatriots move forward to give aid to Janira.

Luciano completes his spell. A purple haze surrounds the bovine, but it simply snorts.

Init tracker: round 2
Luciano: sleep fails too many HD, to act
Janira: to act
Mino:
Dolgo:
Hans:
Kyras:
Noz:

"Blast, guess it isn't bed time"
He moves forward.

Janira, looks back past the tree line and is relieved to see you all. She takes a step back, and throws a bag at the feet of the minotaur, hoping to hamper it.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

The range foot bag explodes at the beasts feet. It tries to get out of the way, but isn't quite quick enough and is stuck to the ground. It growls in frustration, and takes a mighty hack at the goo.

2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 2) + 4 = 11

Init tracker: round 2
Luciano: sleep fails too many HD, to act
Janira: tang bag hit
Mino: glued, 11 damage to bag
Dolgo: to act
Hans: to act
Kyras: to act
Noz: to act

Double move. It's gonna take me a while to get there.

"I'm coming, I'm coming!"

Hans continues to hustle forward quickly...

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16.

...hurtling across the narrow log, and arriving, breathing heavily, almost in a flanking position on the Minotaur.

Double move.

Kyras double moves through the under brush.
"Gah, darn bushes! Where is a goat when you need it? Hey minotaur! Why don't you do your job and eat some grass?!" Kyras yells, hoping to draw its attention from the others.

Dolgo takes a double move through the underbrush with bow directly South.

Hans urges everyone to keep moving.

"Quick! Close in! We need to swarm this beast as fast as we can, if we are going to defeat it - Cooperation and teamwork are going to be key!"

Also, I think our best bet is going to be Luciano's Color Spray... it won't take it out for long, even if it works, but that could still turn the tide, here...

Hans, you will provoke an AOO if you move to your current square due to me having reach. If you stop 1 square up towards log you are okay, which do u wish to do?

Init tracker: round 2
Luciano: sleep fails too many HD, double moved
Janira: tang bag hit
Mino: glued, 11 damage to bag
Dolgo: moved

Noz: to act

Noz inches closer and tries to kick the minotaur in the nuts.

Unarmed Strike vs Minotaur: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Init tracker: round 3
Luciano: to act
Janira: to act
Mino:
Dolgo:
Hans:
Kyras:
Noz:

Noz's kick fails, and he only manages to scrape the shin. The minotaur's nostrils flare and he looks like he is going to cleave you in half.

acrobatics VS DC7: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Several days later Luciano crosses the river.

Yeah, Color spray will stun for 1 round and he'll drop his weapon.

i forgot to roll for tangle rounds...2d4 ⇒ (1, 2) = 3

Luciano, slips a bit when starting to cross the log, but manages to keep his balance and crosses the other side without too much incidence.

Janira, seeing help she smiles, Keep up the teamwork everyone, you can do this.

Continue inspire courage

The minotaur, takes another hack at the goo on his feet. After breaking off the goo, he turns towards Noz, the annoying gnat who took a swat at his "special" parts. The angered minotaur slams his axe into Noz's shoulder. The sound of bones, snapping fills the air. Janira's eyes go wide, as she witnesses the horrific blow, but is pleased to see his armor deflect the worst of the blow that could have been.

2d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 3) + 4 = 13
axe: 1d20 ⇒ 202d6 + 4 ⇒ (4, 1) + 4 = 9 vs AC 19
crit?: 1d20 ⇒ 92d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 2) + 4 = 12 vs AC 19

Mino: full round: goo, then Noz, entangled 1 more round
Dolgo: to act
Hans: to act
Kyras: to act
Noz: to act (9 damage)

"Time to shine!"
A wave of color bursts from the man normally steeped in shadow.

Color Spray, DC 18 Will Neg, no allies caught in crossfire.

Sorry Luciano, I forgot to edit out the actions by you and Janira in the last post. We are still in round 3, but I will keep that as a valid action for round 4 when we get there, unless you post otherwise should peeps move before than

roger

I meant to curve around to that position, to avoid an AoO, but I can stop 5' north, if you prefer, and still 5' step in this round - either way, it does not make much difference :-)

Wincing as he sees the power of the minotaur's swing (and just how lucky Noz was!), Hans takes a deep breath, starts frothing at the mouth, and swings at the creature!

Greatsword, Rage, Inspire Courage: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 5 + 2 + 1 = 28, for 2d6 + 10 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2, 5) + 10 + 3 + 1 = 21 damage.

Crit Confirmation: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 5 + 2 + 1 = 21, for 2d6 + 10 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (4, 5) + 10 + 3 + 1 = 23 *ADDITIONAL* damage.

44 damage should make a dent in the minotaur ;-)

Hans, furious about the blow dealt to Noz, steps forward, foam frothing from his mouth and an anger in his eyes only rivaled by the most angry legendary beasts. He takes a mighty swing, arcing upwards towards the beast. It slices into the minotaurs thigh muscle, almost down to the bone. With his unbridled strength, he digs the blade deeper to show how pissed off he really is.

The blade, exits, as smoothly and forcefully as it entered. Blood doesn't flow, it gushes forth from the leg, somehow it doesn't go straight through cutting the leg completely off. The bull stands, eyes seem hollow and a "far off" look is in its eyes.

Init tracker: round 3
Luciano: moved
Janira: inspire courage
Mino: full round: goo, then Noz, entangled 1 more round, 44 damage
Dolgo: to act
Hans: UBER crit
Kyras: to act
Noz: to act (9 damage)

Fire longbow

attack: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 1 = 8

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Noz smiles and moves a few feet to the south hoping to get into a flank with the barbarian before executing a chop at the injured leg.

Unarmed Strike vs Minotaur: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 1 = 10
Damage: 1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 1 = 11

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16 plus double move.
Kyras crosses the log with no difficulty then stands next to it on the fight side.

Init tracker: round 3
Luciano: to act
Janira: to act
Mino: 44 damage
Dolgo:
Hans:
Kyras:
Noz: (9 damage)

Noz and Dolgo both attack the minotaur. Both miss very badly, while Kyras has a easy time traversing the log bridge. Kyras takes up a position to better attack the giant cow.

Color spray time now before Hans takes all the glory?

Luciano sidesteps and color bursts from his hands.

Color Spray, DC 18 Will Neg, no allies caught in crossfire.

will: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21

The minotaur looks as Luciano creates a cone of fluorescent and vibrant colors to envelop him. His senses are momentarily on overdrive, but easily refocuses his attention. It continues to breathe heavy.

Janira, seeing the fight in it near the end, decides to let it go. Better to let it run, then continue to fight and see her or one of her pupils feel the weight of the axe.

The minotaur turns and runs away, as far away from the group as possible. The reward is beyond the risk in the minotaur's eye.

full round withdraw, provoking no AOO from nearby PC's. Unless someone has a ranged weapon (aka Kyras or Dolgo) who wish to take a final shot, combat is otherwise over

Init tracker: round 3
Luciano: color spray fail
Janira: delays
Mino: 44 damage, WITHDRAWS
Dolgo: to act
Hans: to act
Kyras: to act
Noz: (9 damage) to act

Wishing to have the last strike, Kyras lets loose an arrow.
Longbow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 241d8 ⇒ 3
Crit Confirm?: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

does that include the isnpire courage from janira? if so it doesn't crit. If it become 14, then you DO crit :)

I thought she stopped the performance so I didn't add it.

She has lingering performance, so it continues even though she stopped :)

Two more d8s than for damage since longbows have x3 for critical.
Critical damage: 2d8 ⇒ (1, 8) = 9 + 3 because I keep forgetting the inspire courage bonus

"Nice shot, Kyras!" Noz approaches the dead minotaur and searches for treasure.

Hans has a movement speed of 40', so he should be able to charge after it.

Greatsword, Rage, Inspire Courage, Charge: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 2 + 1 + 2 = 17, for 2d6 + 10 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (6, 6) + 10 + 3 + 1 = 26 damage.

Hans, you cannot kill something that is already dead lol

Kyras, takes a deep breathe, refusing to let the horrible creature escape after tormenting them so. He lines up a shot, at his arrow flies through the air piercing the minotaur through its cold and malicious heart. Blood spurts for but a moment, as the beast falls to the ground, motionless.

Afterwards, Janira will thank all of you for your bravery in the face of danger and death. She looks at the wound in Noz's shoulder, and sighs, I used up what few spells I have escaping the beast myself. Please use the items I gave you back at the entrance to heal your wounds.

As you search the minotaur, all that is found is a large broken battleaxe, and (3) large javelins.

A few moments pass, to allow you to recoup, and tend the various wounds, she than looks around to the group as a whole, How does everyone feel, have you explored the caves to the extent that to want. This is your confirmation, so you tell me when you are finished and we will begin heading back.

So, we have the secret passage left to explore. We can call it here, or explore the final passage, I am game either way :)

If everyone agrees, Kyras will say. "Actually Janira, we found a secret passage in there that we have not yet explored. We were just about to go back and find out what is there."

"Most likely an undead army, given the evidence. Exciting, right!?"

After the group tends some wounds, and prepares, you head back in the way you came out. You see the gillman, looking at all of you has you walk by, Thank you for helping to ease the hostility in these caves. I can sense that all is calm, and it is safe for my kind, as well as anyone else who wants to pay homage to these caves to come and do so. I see you are on a mission, so please don't let me stop you

You travel back to the skeleton room, and the secret passage which you found earlier. You travel down the winding passage, to a section of caves. You hear Janira, whistling a tune, as she works on the paperwork to turn into her superiors back in Absalom.

Perception checks please from all

All acrobatics checks are increased by +4, due to the slick conditions of the cave, and the steady incline going from west to east.

Perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24

Kyras, despite looking beyond a few of his companions sees a slight shimmer in the distance.

K-dungeon if you have it

Init rolls:
Ky: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
Hans: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
Luc:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
Noz: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24
Dolgo: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Mold: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (12) - 1 = 11

These rolls are simply to expediate time, feel free to take any actions you wish

Tracker: round 1

noz: to act

mold:
dolg:

Heh. Fair enough ;-)

"That was a good shot, Kyras; well done!"

Hans continues to move along in the party order (i.e. Behind Noz).

Since combat has not, technically, declared itself just yet ;-)

Nope, no dungeoneering here.

Know Dungeoneering: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15

"Hmm? What's up there?"

Kyras warns of the enemy ahead, Luciano can tell the creature is a slime mold. They live in dense jungle habitats, they are a type of ooze, and they infect people with disease when they come in contact with them.

"Hmmm? You mean the slime on the floor is a hostile creature? Charge!"

So saying, Hans hustles forward, and takes a swing!

Greatsword, Rage: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 2 = 14, for 2d6 + 10 + 3 ⇒ (3, 1) + 10 + 3 = 17 damage.

Acting with inhuman speed, Noz draws his sling and fires off a shot before anyone can react.

sling vs slime: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Is Janira here? I want one of her alchemist's fire's, I assume we gave her stuff back to her?"

The crazy barbarian's charge along with a sling buzzing by his head take down the mold. It dissolves into a puddle, you continue down the passage another 120 feet of twisting caves and exit near the area you were just at. You see Janira whistling a tune while doing paperwork. She looks up, as she hears the noise, Well that was quick. Experience anything exciting or interesting?
