Amazing Red's Evergreen Trilogy (Inactive)

Game Master Daxter

Amarok's eyes glow with an ancient flame. He extends his hand, and a wave of fire erupts toward the bats.

He then falls back away from them. I'll move into the room we came from.

burning hands: 1d4 ⇒ 3 1.5 dmg to swarm

Echi tosses his alchemist fire at the bat swarm, then retreats into the previous room behind Amarok.

RTA Alchemist Fire: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
Miss Square: 1d8 ⇒ 6

I don't think that hits any PC's, but it does do at least 1 fire damage to the swarm.

"...I mean if only we humanoid sorts could learn to live in harmony, innocence and stuff like the beasts of the fields the world would certainly be a--. *sniff, sniff* Do you smell something?"

Sorry, Lauranna, there isn't anything else to know. Would you like to take an action though?

Reflex: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

The bat swarm is able to evade some of the fire.

Who are we waiting for?

Lauranna, but I'm botting her this round.

Lauranna retreats along with most everyone else.
1d6 ⇒ 1

The bats swarm all over Bait!

Poor Bait takes: 1d6 ⇒ 2 And you bleed for 1. Make me a fort save DC11 vs distraction on your turn. Party is up again.

Many thanks. Good that you have taken on this role from time to time - is not lost the pace and mood of the game.

Thanks.

"WHAT DID YOU HAVE TO GO AND DO A DUMB THING LIKE THAT FOR?! NOW THEY'RE MAD!!" She stops screaming at Amarok and Echi for a moment and considers. "Has anyone seen Bait?"

Lauranna looks around the corner. "BAIT!!" She tries the stairway door.

Bait runs away from the bats...

fort save, dc 11: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

Lauranna, LOL, this is awesome! ...I mean the whole image :)

Amarok looks quizzically at Lauranna, but draws an acid flask from his bandolier.

"They did not look very friendly before, young one!" he utters before throwing the flask. waiting until Bait is clear, of course.

acid flask, ranged touch: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 141d6 ⇒ 1

Unsure of some of the words in Lauranna's diatribe, Echi gets the gist. "Sorry, I tried to kill them. Move away so they won't hurt everyone."

Only had gold for 1 splash weapon, Echi will delay.

"This way Bait! Up the stairs!"

This assumes there is a door and that she can open it.

Andoliesa stays away from the bats. The swarm eventually loses interests and leaves ruined tower, full of tasty bait blood. Combat Over.

6d20 ⇒ (2, 1, 15, 5, 14, 8) = 45

One of you is able to find a potion of cure light wounds among the rubble once the bats have left.

"Hey guys look what I found!" Lauranna practically vibrates with excitement at finding the tiny potion vial. "What do you suppose it is?"

"It's a little bottle." Bait answers honestly and quite innocently as if that was what Lauranna was asking. "What's in it?"

He pauses and thinks hard. "Old man Markow has a little bottle like that. He lives in the third alley down on Lampwick Street and says his is medicine. But it never seems to make him better, poor old man."

He shrugs as he brushes off bat fur and guano from his clothes and hair and shudders... "Yuck.. that was scary... they were just suddenly all around me... I couldn't even tell what direction to run til you yelled for me Lauranna... thank you!" He walks over and gives Lauranna a big hug around the legs. (He IS rather short)

"Oh no worries there Bait. Friends should stick together like- like swarms of bats--err, too soon? Swarms of bunnies. Yes, we should stick together like swarms of plump, cottontail, pink-nosed, lop-eared bunnies." She says returning the hug.

Then she sniffs.

"I should probably save some of that for a wizard friend of mine." She says indicating the guano. "Do you mind? Maybe if I clean this little jar ou--. Ohmygosh! You're bleeding!"

heal: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

"Quick Bait, someone, put your finger here while I apply the tourniquet." Aid? :)

heal, untrained, aid another: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

"I think we will be alright now, you know."

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

Echi takes a sip out of the potion and nods approvingly, "This heals. Someone hurt bad should drink it."

Ready to move on when everyone else is.

The last room on this floor opens up to two stone altars, one black and one white, sit at either end of this large chamber, which takes up two wings of the tower on this level. The crumbling remains of wooden benches sag in front of each altar beneath rotting ceiling tapestries. Carved symbols and writings snake along the walls. The burnt corpses of two troglodytes lie on the floor in the center of the room. The cause for the two corpses is obvious. Two skeletons, permanently ablaze stand here. They notice you and attack!

Everyone except for Lauranna is up!

"Ack, terrible omens!" Echi exclaims at the sight of the strange room and fiery skeletons. After his unsamurai-like display, he quickly regains his composure, stepping up 5 feet to attack the closest skeleton with his glaive.

Glaive - PA: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (11) + 5 - 1 = 15
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 3 = 10

Echi dispatches the skeleton before it can even react. It explodes as it is destroyed, luckily no one is close enough to be hit! Everyone else!

"Huh? What?"

Bait casts quickly and aims acid splash at the skeleton.

ranged touch to hit: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
dmg if hits: 1d3 ⇒ 2

Amarok takes his only ranged weapon and throws it at the skeleton.

javelin: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 171d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Deftly maneuvering among friends, Tazenin moves out of the way and takes a spear at the ready. He's going to go to kill the skeleton when he moves forward.

Move to D10, waiting for chance to AoO, reach 10ft, Combat Reflexes

Not wanting to get to close to an exploding skeleton, Andoliesa takes a step towards Echi.

5' step

I moved Tazenin to D10 on the map

Bait misses but Amarok hits. The skeleton moves forward. Provoking an AOO from Taz. If you can hit AC16 and do 2 damage, it dies and no one gets blown up.

Scimitar: 1d20 ⇒ 8
1d6 ⇒ 6
Fire: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Party is up otherwise.

I hope that I can! Drum roll! Dice gods, don't fail!

Spear: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 91d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Oh sh...

Well luckily you still get your normal turn.

Tazenin continues his deadly dance. Making a graceful step to the side, he again spins the spear and tries to stick it to the enemy's skull.

spear: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 121d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

5-foot-step to E11.
Did I get fire damage on the previous turn?

The map suggests that Andoliesa, Echi, and Tazenin will get burnt at the beginning of their turns. It's unclear if we take 5 damage or need to roll it ourselves.

Echi takes a 5 foot step to the southeast and waits for Andoliesa to move away from the burning skeleton, "Move Sister Tengu!"

Five foot step to F10 if possible. If can't 5' step there, will provoke to move there.
Ready action: Attack with glaive once no one is adjacent to it.

Readied Action: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 5 - 1 = 13
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 3 = 12

Well that roll was if his scimitar hit, as it would also do fire damage. You do take fire at the beginning of your turns, this round it is 1d6 ⇒ 4 damage. Apologies for it not being clear. F10 is not in the same room. If you mean E10, then that is fine.

Tazenin misses with his strike as does Echi. Everyone else!

Lauranna (everyone else) notes the threat.

KA-BOOM! "Oh! That? Well they seem easy enough to break provided you can hit them. Let's all pull together!"

Inspire courage, +1 to everyone's hit and damage. She moves north 5 feet.

Bait moves til he has a clear shot and aims an acid splash at the skeleton.

ranged touch to hit: 1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 3 - 4 = 11
dmg if hits: 1d3 ⇒ 1

With the helpful inspiration from Lauranna, Bait is able to destroy the skeleton with acid. Unfortunately it still explodes!

Andoliesa takes, Reflex DC11 for half: 1d6 ⇒ 5 Combat Over!

dang. I was going to move...

reflex save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Andoliesa falls unconscious.

-2/12 hp

ouch, sorry

"Not again!" Lauranna shouts in concern.

cure light wounds (Andoliesa): 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

"Who would leave flaming bones behind?" Echi wonders to himself as he examines his burns, "We should leave here soon."

Resting or moving on?

Andoliesa stands up. "I do not like this place, you know."

-Posted with Wayfinder

"Me either, but we've got to finish. Maybe it'll get easier from here on?" ah, the optomism of youth

I also got burned. And what's next? Lich-dragon? Ohh...

The elf shrugs and sagely beginning to study the altar.

Knowledge (Religion, Arcana): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19

I have one CLW memorized, but I guess none of us has a wand for healing, right? Happy to lay this spell on whoever needs it most, though.

Good, because I'm dry. Still I'm willing to go on.

Let's first check if we missed anything here and then move on!

We should probably conserve Amarok's healing spell and the CLW potion for now.

In an effort to exit this room more quickly, Echi helps to search the area.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26

I agree regarding conservatiom

Andoliesa also searches the room. perception, aid Echi: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21

The altars still contain their silver altar services, worth 100 gp altogether, as well as two silver holy symbols of Nethys. In addition, a divine scroll rests atop each altar: a scroll of shatter on the black altar, and a scroll of shield other on the white altar.
