A Special Request for Gm Lorenzo (Closed Table) (Inactive)

Game Master Gary Pepper

perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

Enora uses detect magic to look around the vault. If the manservant looks skittish, she explains first that she is going to use magic to look around.

Ptehp: "Nice boat. But cold. Lantern supposed to hang from front. Look: ring there."

Perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

Enora Looks about the Vault room but notices only faint trails of magic that were used in the area.

Ptehp seems to have pointed out a very important feature of the tapestry that looks off.

Tyros asks "So what have you done with Bengeirr's guards? Shall I call in a cleanup crew." he finishes eyeing Ptehp over seeing the blood stains across his tunic.

Perception DC15: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Gitano nods at Ptehp, "The lantern is missing, probably taken by Bengeirr and his men."

"I'm convinced we've heard the truth from Skelg and Tyros. Looks like we need to question our prisoners, and find out where our quarry has gone." He shrugs, "With luck, we might be able to save Skelg’s man Tirfyr as well."

Gitano examines the corpses of Skelg’s men in the vault, looking for anything out of the ordinary.
Heal: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

---

Gitano uses his wand of cure light wounds to rouse the bound prisoners. (33 charges remaining.) "Boys, I'm the good cop. You can answer my questions," he points at Ptehp, "Or we'll turn the questioning over to the bad cop."

"Where's Bengeirr?"
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

Ptehp glares at Tyros: "Me keep them from dying with good magic from Selket. You pray to Selket? I do. She be goddess of healing. Selket also be sweet goddess of embalming."

Ptehp looks at the tapestry: "Door there?"
He goes up to the tapestry and tries to push through it, where he feels the door might be.

Gitano Rouses Bengeirr's men and although his Good Cop, bad Cop speech would work on a normally commoner they however remain grimly tight-lipped, staring at you with wild eyes, death glares you might even notice.

So close yet so far, anyone else wish to 'Assist' Gitano?

Ptehp continues to berate the meek man sevant Tyros. Tyros responds to Pthep's question "Yes the portal was there..." Ptheps attempts to 'open' the door fall short to which Tyros chortles sligthly "...But it since closed just 30 minutes after Tirfyr went through the second time. I believe the Lantern is the key to this mystery."

While not a large man Kitajo will attempt to appear imposing to assist Gitano.

Intimidate: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (20) - 1 = 19

Enora shakes her head at the stubborn creatures.

"You really want to answer my nice friend, so you don't have to answer my mean friend."

dipl. aid another: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
(Enora has helpful, so gives +4 on an aid)

Delphinia nods and smiles. "I hope we can resolve this without further violence. We'd prefer for everyone to walk away from this in one piece."

Diplomacy, aiding Gitano's attempt: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30

Should be an auto-success at aiding, though sadly only for +2. If only Allie were here to help. ^_^

Ptehp sees if he can lift the tapestry to see if there is a door behind it, in the wall.

Even with the soothing words that Enora and Delphinia speak along side Gitano's orginal statement both the fake guards stay tight lipped. The more diplomatic portion of the group tries all they might but to no avail they are unable to get anything from either restrained men.

Enter Kitajo standing menacing cracking the knuckles of both of his hands stares at the man with the red hat. Seeing the man that easily dispatched him so easily with only his fist the Ulfen warrior resigns himself and blurts out "Bengeirr sent us, he'll be at the warehouse at the docks. Cross the way from The Rosy Fingers Tavern on the West Docks. That's all I know honest." The Ulfen Warrior slumps into him self the one in orange stares madly at him shooting looks of death and rage towards the loose lipped man.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Lifting the Tapestry from the Wall Ptehp sees only a brick and mortor worked wall.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Feel free to ask any more questions of Skelg or Tyros. They will be worked in. I'm going to move us forward now.

The warehouse across from The Rosy Fingers Tavern is built right on the docks, part of it extending over the water. The building is thirty feet tall with no visible windows. On the landward side is a pair of large cargo doors with a smaller door built into the right one. Piers run along either side of the building and on the seaward side is a massive set of doors able to accommodate a small ship.
The street is busy, with several taverns among the warehouses. Most of the warehouses have sentries in front of them, and the ships at the docks are similarly guarded. A northlander warrior with an axe resting in his lap sits on a small pile of crates across from the warehouse, obviously keeping watch on the main door.

It should go without saying but you are working a mission in the most cosmopolitan city on Golarion and simply attacking people in the streets can have potential repercussions for you but alos the Pathfinder Society.

Slide #4 placed you all on the map.

Seeing that someone closed the doorway behind the tapestry, Ptehp shrugs, and leaves with the others for the tavern.

"So? What do we do?"

Kitajo looks to the group. He is not a tactical thinker.

"I can make someone invisible for a very short time, if that helps."

vanish, like invisibility but only for 4 rounds

"Or just go knock on the head of the guard. If he cannot see us, we are invisible."

Gitano nods at Enora. "I can do that neat little trick, too. That might work. I could cast it on three of us, one at a time, but the duration's less than 30 seconds."

"How about I try to lure the guard away? From a concealed spot, I can cast message and whisper to him that Bengeirr is pissed, and is calling for him. When he opens the door we can slip inside behind him. The bluff might succeed."

The Sczarni bravo grins, "The direct approach will work best if it's handled inside the warehouse. No fuss, no muss. And no cops."

Delphinia shrugs uncertainly. "I could try talking to him, but I don't know how I would convince him to let us pass." Peering at the guard from the party's location, she adds, "I don't even know if becoming invisible would help. Even if he can't see us, he'll still see the door open as we enter."

Tapping her foot and thinking, she finally asks "...what if we just tell him the truth? That we're here to see, and probably fight, his boss. Can't hurt to try, right?" She concludes with an innocent smile.

"Other magic things I could do would be to play 'magical tricks' both visual and sound to distract him (prestidigitation and ghost sound) or make a mist that keeps him from seeing."

Gitano nods, "So we have a number of interesting, viable options; now we just need to make a decision."

"I'd prefer to deal with the guard out of sight of witnesses or the watch. I think we can lure him back into the warehouse, where no one outside can see or hear what we do. What do you all want to do?"

"Ptehp want to do smart thing. You say what smart thing is. Ptehp do it."

Seems you all have mostly the same intent on plan so I'm going to roll with it.

You move up behind the bar and all begin to cast a few spells. Gitano pulls out a small bit of copper wire and finishing his spell sends a quick message to the Warrior on guard saying "Marek, get in here now!" Simple yet straight forward. The guard is taken aback having never realized that any of his comrades could send a message.

Enora sees the look in his eye and quickly changes up her casting of ghost sound and prestidigitation to mimic as if a rather angered Bengeirr. The Guard realizing that he better get in and see what the boss has going on before he finds out the hard way he bolts upright heads to the door pulling a key from his belt pouch he unlocks the door and heads into the warehouse.

Having been raised in a barn it would seem the guard leaves the door wide open.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

As you approach the door you hear some confused sounds coming form the door way, seems like the guard might not have been summoned.

Hope you don't mind that I 'cast' some of you spells for you guys.

I'm fine with it; we had stalled, and the spells were cantrips.

Ptehp is surprised: "Wow! Just when you were gonna fake it, his boss called him in!"
He smiles.
"We rush now?"

"Ptehp, my half-orc friend, you are a bloody genius! Let's roll, baby!"

Gitano heads for the warehouse door and, with an exaggerated bow, opens it for his friends. "After you, Muscles."

Ptehp hustles up behind Gitano, getting a good grip on his whip as he does.

Placed myself as if we were in rounds (double move).
If we are not in rounds:

Ptehp will step over beside GItano to be in the doorway after having called upon Selket's Blessing of Protection.

+1 Sacred bonus to AC and Saves for 1 minute @ 9/10 rounds - 4/5 Blessings per day

Kitajo mutters to himself as he moves up with Ptehp. His skin looks to become almost like that of a tree's bark. Burning a ki point to cast barkskin. Lasts 40 minutes

Enora swiftly but silently follows the others. Nethys protect us, I hope this isn't a bad idea...

No Rounds yet Ptehp. All of you have an opportunity to move up to the doorway and buff up if you needed.

"Muscles" as Gitano has dubbed him moves up to the door way to which the boastful Scarni has gingerly opened for the Large Half-Orc. Following in behind Ptegp is Kitajo preparing himself to sustain larger hits. Slightly questioning the actions the Pathfinders have Enora follows hoping that seeking additonal knowledge about the Lantern will prove an adequate reason for Nethys to provide protection on the group today.

Bold is up, What do you wish to do?

Still here!

Delphinia follows along behind the others. As the group squares off with the six guards, she whispers to the others, "Do you think this is going to be a big important fight?"

(Translation: is this important enough to start using bloodrage? I don't have very many rounds...)

Enora takes a moment to get mage armor on herself from her wand, and then shield from her staff. AC is temporarily 21

Oh, mage armor. Please have a chat with me when we have a couple minute break.

Enora has a 5 charge wand. Unless this scenario goes on forever, she will not need all of them.

Kitajo has a 37 charge wand, but no UMD to use it :)

Ptehp trudges right in, going past the Yellow garbed Ulfen, and then spinning around and whipping the man in Orange.
"Hullo! Wanna talk?"

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 201d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

AC26 w. +1 Sacred bonus to AC and Saves for 1 minute @ 8/10 rounds - 4/5 Blessings per day

An attack with your whip, not an eye-lashing Perception check, right? ;-)

Moving in Ptehp sends his Scorpion whip flying out towards the man in orange nicking him just along his shoulder. The man yells out "Ungh! Bengeirr we're under attack!"
Hearing this the Men unaware of the situation move up drawing there weapons and fly into a Rage! And start swinging there great axes.

Above your group 20feet up on the balcony you see a man clad in furs with a Holy Symbol about his neck and a Greatsword strapped to his back casting a spell.

Apparently they did not expect someone to come rushing in like this and there form is all off when they try to swing at anyone they try.

Ptehp's eyebrow raises as he feels seven blades flash around him: Selket, thank you for protecting me! he thinks... well, prays!
That +1 AC sure helped!

Ptehp takes a step to the side, under the skylight, between the red and orange garbed ulfen.
Doing so he calls upon Selket's Fervor: "Smile upon Ptehp, Mistress of the Beautiful House!", and he flings a camel thigh bone up above his head as he steps to the side.
The bone animates with necromantic energy and starts floating around Ptehp, ready to interpose itself against the attacks of the enemy and their spiritual weapon.

Ptehp lashes out at the Red ulfen: "Ptehp is the scorpion! Ptehp has strong shell... and a stinger!"

AC 26 & DR 5/bludgeoning

Kitajo moves in to Yellow 5 foot step and launches a flurry of fists.

Flurry Unarmed Strike 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11 Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Elbow Smash: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19 Damage (Non-Lethal): 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6Jabbing Style Damage (Non-Lethal): 1d6 ⇒ 4
Flurry Unarmed Strike 2: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8 Jabbing Style Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Buff: Archaeologist's Luck + Fate's Favored trait = +2 luck bonus to attacks, damage, saves and skill checks. 8/10 remaining.

As a swift action, Gitano calls upon the aid of Lady Luck.

"Hiya, Pink Lady. Say hello to my little rapier."
Attack vs Pink, AL&FF; Damage: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 161d6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

If an opponent makes a melee attack against Gitano, he will attempt an opportune parry and riposte...

Requesting permission to include Ptehp in the area of an unfriendly spell!

Enora looks to see what spell is being cast.
spellcraft: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16
Evidently, Enora's upbringing in Rahadoum is a handicap identifying the spell cast by an obvious divine caster.

Then Enora steps back a little and lifts her staff. Four hard little pellets of magic streak out, slamming into the guy in the yellow hat. Any excess missiles should target the purple guy next to him.

1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

"Ptehp not care if spell or no spell. Selket protect Ptehp."

Will DC16: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29

"Oh? Ptehp all shiny!"

Gitano asks lady luck for a little help with handling his blade. Seems that Lady Desna is watching over him this day and guides his rapier deep into the Ulfen Warriors chest through a soft spot in his fur armor. Kitajo Steps up to the man in yellow furs giving a traditional Tian hello to which the Ulfen man manages to dodge each blow Kitajo sends his way. Using the gifts of her ancestors Delphinia points out a baths Ptehp and a few few of the Ulfen men in a shower of Glittery golden dust Blinding most of the men but Ptehp and the one in Pink close there eyes just in time.

Enora sends out little bullets of force at the man in yellow hat belting him all over.

Ptehp being spurred on by the new golden appearance he whips the little man in red cutting a ribbon of flesh from the mans arm.

The Warriors move about those who are blinded walk a few steps to get within range of Ptehp and they all take a swing Many missing everyone except one that tags Ptehp in his back shoulder. The bone fleeting about him however blocks some of the blow but enough of the blade makes its way through.

Bengeirr motions for his Spiritual Weapon to continue its offense against the deadly Half-Orc. While he does this you see him level a bulls eye Lantern narrowing the beam at Ptehp cackling he yells "You will freeze to death just like that wretched man Skelg!"

The slight shines over you Ptehp and you feel a cold chill travel up your spine. Need a Will Save from you Ptehp please.

Kitajo again tries to land a combination of punches and elbows on the yellow enemy.

Flurry Unarmed Strike 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Elbow Smash: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15 Damage (Non-Lethal): 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10Jabbing Style Damage (Non-Lethal): 1d6 ⇒ 6
Flurry Unarmed Strike 2: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16 Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10 Jabbing Style Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

This is a joke right? What is with these dice?

Buff: Archaeologist's Luck + Fate's Favored trait = +2 luck bonus to attacks, damage, saves and skill checks. 8/10 remaining.

Gitano ceases Archeaologist's Luck but its effects last two more rounds with the Lingering Performance feat.

"Stramazzone!" Gitano delivers the Pink Lady a wicked cut, very dear to the pre-eminent sword master Bolognese Maestri, from the wrist, his rapier describing a whole circle around the Pink Lady's barbarian bellybutton rosebud.
Attack vs Pink, AL&FF; Damage: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 291d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Crit?! Crit Damage: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 126 + 5 = 11
With a successful critical hit, Gitano gains 1 panache, maximum 10.

If an opponent makes a melee attack against Gitano, he will attempt an opportune parry and riposte...

Desna smiles down upon Gitano again he sinks the end of his Rapier into the 'Pink Lady' driving home. The Warrior is staggered slightly but still standing. so close :)

Kitajo although feeling his blows will be unsuccessful this time around yet again but he drops the man, thanks to his blinded state, into an unconscious pile on the floor.

Delphinia attacks the pink guard with her glaive, using Phalanx Formation to ignore soft cover. To Gitano, she says, "Let's see if we can't clear you a path into the action."

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13
Damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

If her attack drops the pink guard, Delphinia then moves to the square directly downwards of Enora's current position, keeping her glaive ready to make attacks of opportunity against the first enemy to emerge. Otherwise, she maintains position and does the same.

Will: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19

Ptehp feels the light of the lantern dance across his face, amidst the shiny glitter: "If Ptehp cold, Ptehp go stand in sunlight. Then Ptehp no cold."
He takes a step to move a little closer to the main enemy, and lashes out at Red again.

AC 26 & DR 5/bludgeoning

Dephinia Moves about getting into a better position to use her glaive to efeective use but she only nicks the 'Pink Lady' as Gitano has dubbed him across his Fur armor.

Enora Still keeping her distance begans the proper incantaction and proper hand movements and then you see her screaming at the top of her lungs, but thats just it you only 'see' her screaming at the lady-man in pink but not a sound can be heard by anyone around.
Ear-Piercing Scream, Sonic: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 6) = 12
Botting Enora: Casting Ear Piercing Scream at Pink
Grabbing his ears the man in pink looks to be in intense pain.
Fortitude DC15: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
Hiss eyes roll into the back of his head and he falls to the ground bleeding from his ears.

Meanwhile....
In the warehouse Ptehp does a little fancy foot work moving about and taking another pound of flesh from the man in red.

The Ulfen Warriors wipe the gold dust from their eyes and take a few swings again at Ptehp while the floating shimmery great sword takes a final swing and then disipates.

Ptehp stands about looking at the ridiculous men trying in vain to hit him. "HAHAH." he laughs into their faces.

Bengeirr gets a little miffed that Ptehp seems to have shaken the extreme cold feeling form his body. Setting his sights now on Gitano at the entrance he shines the lanterns light on the Luck Pirate.

Kitajo moves inside the building and looks to distract the orange warrior while Ptehp attacks, or vice versa.

Unarmed Strike+Flank: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 9 + 2 = 12 Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
