Arcanium ~ A New World (Inactive)

Game Master BloodWolven

Round 1

Serill shoots his crossbow and misses the gnoll. Being not in a confined space when the sniper rifle goes off it is loud just not deafening. Thank you for clarifying Artemis. His shot tears through the front gnoll taking it to the ground. Cam barks out orders to help focus your attacks. Niversal moves forward to get a shot and then releases two shots, only one gets through but it goes through the gnolls eye. Taking it down. Ryada begins to sing and inspire the group, +2 on attack and damage.

Another volley of bolts shoot. 8d20 ⇒ (6, 10, 14, 4, 19, 12, 7, 7) = 79 They all whiz by Jellena as she does a slow mo matrix move to miss them.

Yes Serill, your mage armor should be good for another hour. You know these are Gnolls. Let me know if you need more info.

Round 2

Round 2

She seems to vanish!

Then the black light saber appears above her head and brings it down upon the other gnoll.
lightsaber: 1d20 + 11 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 11 + 4 = 31 damage+sneak: 2d6 + 2d6 ⇒ (1, 4) + (2, 1) = 8

The two gnolls beside her draw their falchions and swing at her but she easily dodges the attacks.
2d20 ⇒ (19, 8) = 27

Round 1

He follows Niversal and looks at him and then around. He growls and faces the gnolls.

Serill slaps a hand to his ear reflexively but it is useless to block the noise. This is definitely going to damage my ear drums...

He drops the crossbow to his side, held in his left arm and moves forward 10ft. to the open right-side door. He looks around the corner and retrieving a dab of butter, incants in draconic, "Wielg vhira." With a shake of his hand towards the gnolls, the enchanted butter flies forth and spreads under their feet.

Move 10ft. Standard cast Grease (DC 16) under the second group of Gnolls' feet. Yellow semi-transparent square on map.

Niversal gives voice command to Ed to flank with John and fires in round 2 again

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

rapid fire: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

rapid fire damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

"Flank with John? So I should get behind Serill? Do you want me to attack Serill?" he asks a bit confused at the command.

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30

"Ed could come flank with me!" She states quickly still paying attention to the two attacking her in melee and the eight from range.

Round 2

Ryada steps forward and aims for the next set of goals attacking from range. For a moment she studies the target and shoots the blue target with Delman.

electrical blast, touch: 1d20 + 10 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 10 + 2 + 1 = 19 E damage: 1d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 1 = 7

Round 2

Delman steps beside Ryada and aims for the next set of goals attacking from range, attacking the same target as her.

goblin bane, comp. long bow +1: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 9 + 1 + 2 = 32 damage: 1d8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 2 = 6
The bow is made from red cherry with sharp red hateful symbols burnt into it.

Round 2
"Sorry, was trying to protect the wizard." John says a little sheepishly. "Please don't eat Serill, Ed."
John walks up to flank with our cleric/oracle/jedi, and takes a stab at green gnoll.
Hit?: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22
Damage: 1d4 + 3 + 2d8 ⇒ (2) + 3 + (3, 3) = 11

Round 1
Joe jumps over the fallen orcs by the door and charges the next wave of orc attackers.
Escalavar (charge): 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 12 + 2 = 18
Dmg.: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (8) + 8 + (1, 6) = 23

Round 2
If Joe's gnoll opponent does not fall, the paladin will continue the attack.
Escalavar: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13
Dmg.: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) + 8 + (1, 5) = 16

lol nice one Ed flank with John and attack that orc

Round 2
Jellena and John flank the gnoll with mostly white fur, it is becoming more red by the second from their attacks. Joe attacks and misses with his swiping sword, then he fumbles almost losing the sword the gnoll's falchion slides across your armor, that was a close one! Ed turns into a sparrow and flies to the other side of the gnolls. Delman's arrow hits hard it just doesn't confirm the critical but damages the blue gnoll with Ryada. Serill casts grease upon the ground below the next group of gnoll's feet, most of them fall. The blue one, the target of the ranged attacks, is still standing.

1d20 ⇒ 141d20 ⇒ 131d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 9 + 1 + 2 = 19
4d20 ⇒ (11, 18, 2, 3) = 34+4 4d20 ⇒ (19, 4, 7, 5) = 35 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (1, 1) + 6 = 8

One of the other gnolls further down the passage comes forward and as the other three grab his crossbow pulls them out of the spell. The gnoll turns and faces Jellena swinging and missing. As the other gnoll faces Joe, and hits rather hard, leaving a gashing wound, 8 damage. As the hurt blue one from the back drops its crossbow, takes a five foot step, pulls its greataxe, and attacks Jellena missing.

Round 3

Round 3

Light Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Light Crossbow Crit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
Damage: 2d8 ⇒ (1, 8) = 9

Serill watches, triumphant, as three of the four gnolls falls over, but as the grease spell is subverted his joy becomes short lived. That's a smart gnoll, perhaps a leader. He steps out with his reloaded crossbow and snipes the gnoll that helped its allies. Then he reloads. "I bought you a few seconds from their crossbows! I'll dismiss the grease when you're ready to take on the next group!" he advises the others.

Small Recon.

Joe delayed and then as the two gnolls are taken down by the artillery he moved forward. Jumping over their bodies, blades flew at him as he past, and attacked the blue gnoll of the second set. One of the gnolls cut him good as he passes.

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
2d4 + 6 ⇒ (3, 2) + 6 = 11
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
2d4 + 6 ⇒ (3, 3) + 6 = 12

Ed would not turn into a sparrow, instead he would move forward and try to trip the gnoll in front of him. Hurting but not tripping the gnoll.

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

I will adjust the map later. Basically switch Joe and Ed.

Round 2

Borealis Shot: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

Borealis Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 4) = 5

Artemis frowns as everyone heads closer, helping to block his shot as he tries to aim, making sure to avoid injuring his comrades by mistake.

Round 3

Borealis Shot: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

Borealis Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4

Artemis takes a look as one of the gnolls pulls the three others to safety, frowning as the rest continue to block the hallway, soon taking the best aim he can as Artemis shoots at one of the forward gnolls. The one in front with the white X.

Round 3

Her black light saber slices the air making an iconic sound to those who know Star Wars and brings it down upon the gnoll. again.

lightsaber: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 2 = 24 damage+sneak: 2d6 + 2d6 ⇒ (5, 4) + (1, 2) = 12

The three gnolls beside her continue to swing their falchions at her. The gnolls look like they are ready to attack someone else as she easily dodges their attacks with a smile on her face.
3d20 ⇒ (7, 19, 12) = 38

"Joe, you are lucky they decided to stop making the volleys, you would be the target now..."

Round 3

Ryada steps forward and aims for the next set of gnolls attacking from range. For a moment she studies the target and shoots the blue target with Delman.

electrical blast, touch: 1d20 + 10 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 10 + 2 + 1 = 24 E damage: 1d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 1 = 9

Round 3

Aiming at the same target at the back of the group.

goblin bane, comp. long bow +1: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 1 + 2 = 14 damage: 1d8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 2 = 6
The bow is made from red cherry with sharp red hateful symbols burnt into it.

Niversal sights another gnoll and fires two arrows at the beast!

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Round 3
Joe smiles inwardly at Jellena chiding him for being so reckless, when she has shown herself to be just as reckless not too long ago.

The young monarch advances toward the wave of gnolls coming down the hallway, starting his attack against Green.
Escalavar: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25
Dmg.: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (8) + 8 + (4, 3) = 23

John and Cam can catch up!

Jellena slices deep into the gnoll and it drops from the pain and blood loss. Artemis shoots his sniper rifle and it is loud but has a strange powering up sound to it as well. He hits his target that is next to Ed. Delman shoots and misses. Serill Elamaer shoots his crossbow and scores a critical on the leader gnoll, though the bolt cut its neck the bolt is stuck there too. Ryada continues to sing and inspire but she also calls up electricity between her hands before throwing it at the blue gnoll again knocking it out of the fight. Joe charges forward and finds the grease very slick... it slows him down but he gets to his target. Still upon the grease as Joe attacks, he slips but doesn't fall after hurting the gnoll before him. Niversal plugs the forward gnoll with two arrows dropping him but he swung at Ed first but misses the dog. Ed did help taking down that gnoll too!
Joe Acro DC 10: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13Joe Acro DC 10: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Two orcs comes rushing around the corner with falchions in hand! The gnolls move back away from Joe, all withdrawing.

Round 3 (Ack! I thought I had already done that!)
John runs forward, and tries to long jump over the grease!
DC 15 acrobatics check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
He continues down the corridor, and probably gets shot a bunch!

Round 4
Assuming that he is still upwardly mobile, he will delay and wait for some people to catch up with him.

Round 3

She takes her AoO on John as he tries to get by her... she secures her hand on your wrist stopping your movement, and quickly says with a no nonsense way, "and if you keep resisting you might end up on the floor. Don't run into a room where the enemy is waiting! Let Joe or I take those initial shots! Also if Joe gets in there before me he will be a scorching ray pin cushion. Dude Joe! I can dodge ranged attacks and spells can you?! Good grief you noobs!"
unarmed strike: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (12) + 12 = 24
CMB: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

Round 4
Joe takes a 5-foot step off the greased area, offering his hand to help other across it.

Perception up ahead where the scary clouds are: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
Serill is looking to try and see what is ahead of them. Then he notices the orcs coming behind him. shit

"Shoot them!" he calls to Niversal and Artemis pointing at the orcs. He does what he suggests, fires a bolt and reloads, forgetting to dismiss the grease for now.
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12 damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7

Niversal aims at the orcs as they clear the corner and fires twice as he hears the call to shoot them

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

damage 1: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

damage 2: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Too much movement and not being in combat for thirty years and he pulled the arrows a bit so that they skitter and snap into the wall past the orcs

Joe notices the group attacking something where the once were. The paladin tries his best to get across the grease to his fellow adventurers.
Reflex: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (13) + 14 = 27

[ooc]Round 4 Revised![ooc]
"Sorry, sorry! You just all seem so capable 'n stuff, I don't want to slow anyone down. But getting hurt would do that too... ugh." Hearing the sounds of the scuffle, John moves back out of the hallway to go lend additional hands to the problem, moving to stand next to Cam.

Round 4

"Serill it is time to dismiss this grease spell!" She states into the ring. Then she casts a spell saying, "Seariaisa Delratha." Resist Energy Fire.

Round 4

He moves to get a better shot at the approaching orcs. Aiming at the new targets, the white orc in the lead.
goblin bane, comp. long bow +1: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 9 + 1 + 2 = 30 damage: 1d8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 2 = 7

Round 3

She continues to sing, inspiring the group. She moves to the side too and aims for the closest orc. For a moment she studies the target and shoots the white target with Delman.

electrical blast, touch: 1d20 + 10 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 10 + 2 + 1 = 18 E damage: 1d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 1 = 5

1d2 ⇒ 1
I am getting frustrated as there are far too many people in a far too small corridor and I am basically stuck out back in the main area near the stairs. I can’t get in and it’s way to crowded, I’d hate’ta elbow somebody in’tha face!
Perplexed, I start racking my brain on what to do when the solution presents itself in the form of a pair of orcs rounding the far corner.
Heads up! We got flankers! I’ll try and stall them till somebody backs me up!
With that I charge recklessly down the hall at the 2 orcs (specifically at the racist white one...).

(unlucky) Charging Fist!: 1d20 + 7 - 3 ⇒ (4) + 7 - 3 = 8
Knuckle Sandwitch!: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Coming up on the orc I swing mightly and just let him have it! Wiff!!!
Uhh... That wasn't supposed to happen... I stare blankly as my fist flashes through empty air in what turned out to be a really messy and uncoordinated swing. Worst yet I can now see partially down the hall and it looks like there are another half dozen orcs coming...
s##t.

Round 5
Joe stops at the doorway to witness the ranged attacks.

Round 5 i keep forgetting... please don't crit me!

It is difficult to take his eyes off the incoming orcs but he moves just past the door just behind Ed to get in range of his spell and out of sight of the orcs. "We have orcs flanking us. Are you going through there alone?" He focused to pull his magic out of the grease spell, "Bvare," leaving only sparse molecules of harmless, unenchanted butter behind. "I think Joe and the others can handle the orcs. I can back you up once you have their attention. Do you have a strong stomach or resistance to poison? I can weaken them with a cloud of seasickness if there are many on you."

Round 5

"Go for it Serill, I am blessed by the Mistress and not much affects me." She states and then charges blindly into the room. Bolts and scorching rays blast at her and she dodges most of them in Matrix slow motion style.

Rays 6d20 ⇒ (5, 20, 17, 11, 4, 7) = 64
Bolts 6d20 ⇒ (14, 19, 15, 15, 6, 16) = 85
confirm: 1d20 ⇒ 5

4d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 4, 1) = 7

She takes no damage from the attack as the magical shield disperses it. She grins at them and states, "I am here, come and defile me!"

He tries gnawing on the gnolls, making sure they are dead but quickly spits them out. Sounding disgusted with them he looks around and goes after Jellena. "I help you?" he asks.

She swears under her breath but then says changing her face and voice to that of excitement, "Yes, attack and I will flank with you."

Round 5
"Oh so it's dumb when I'm going to do it, but cool when she does it? Great. Just... great." John mutters to himself as he charges at the green orc.
Chargestab: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15
Damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
"Gotta get a flank on these critters. Cam, you ready to be an action hero?"

Round 5 continued.
King Joseph runs to John's elbow. Double move. "I stand with you, gentlemen", the paladin declares.

Round 4

Artemis would look over as Serill and Cameron shout out, navigating forward behind Cameron, getting ready to fire towards the flanking orcs.

Round 5

Artemis, after getting ready to fire, just pauses a little as Cameron charges... and misses the orcs... somehow? Waiting for Cameron to get safely out of the way, Artemis just lets out a volley at the lead white orc.

Borealis Shot: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 8 + 2 = 25

Borealis Damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 5) + 2 = 12

Round 4
Niversal fires on the two orcs moving to flank if possible:

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Round 5 move action to put away the bow and draw a long sword in two hands as part of second move action to flank the flanking orcs with John

Round 4

The first two orcs were just the beginning as many more come to fight. Though they both miss as they charge into melee. Delman and Ryada hit their mark taking down the other orc in the front.
2d20 ⇒ (6, 2) = 8+7
Niversal shoots and misses.

Round 5

2d20 ⇒ (9, 5) = 14+5
Niversal shoots and misses, then prepares for melee. Artemis takes his shot and takes off the head of one of the coming orcs. The orcs both miss their attacks with their falchions again. The second wave of orcs don't fare as well with charging either but the one wearing blue hits John hard, 9 damage. John misses with his stab. After the spell was gone... she double moves into the defiled temple.

2d20 ⇒ (3, 15) = 18+7/+5
2d4 + 6 ⇒ (1, 2) + 6 = 9

Round 6
First she goes invisible.

After Ed attacks the nearest orc her black light saber slices the air making an iconic sound and brings it down upon the orc.

lightsaber: 1d20 + 11 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 11 + 2 + 4 = 32 damage+sneak: 2d6 + 2d6 ⇒ (5, 5) + (2, 5) = 17

The orcs across the room reload and shoot. Then hearing the abyssal command they go after others, dropping their crossbows and drawing their falchions. The weapons have dark black miasma on them.

5d20 ⇒ (4, 10, 9, 3, 2) = 28
5d20 ⇒ (14, 19, 9, 11, 3) = 56 damage to dog: 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (2, 3) + 6 = 11 damage to dog: 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (1, 3) + 6 = 10

Round 7

lightsaber: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 11 + 2 = 33 damage+sneak: 2d6 + 2d6 ⇒ (1, 5) + (1, 4) = 11
lightsaber: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 11 + 2 = 29 damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 6) = 8

5d20 ⇒ (11, 12, 3, 7, 13) = 46
5d20 ⇒ (10, 11, 14, 9, 18) = 62 damage to dog: 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (2, 2) + 6 = 10 damage to dog: 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (3, 4) + 6 = 13

As Ed is taken down Niversal feels pain...

long sword: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

As Niversal sees the orcs rushing in and feels a sharp pain looking around not seeing Ed he yells out to John Get the hell out of here John, run to get help and don't stop running til you do! There's too many!

will save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

Serill waits for the orcs to focus on Jellena after taking down Ed. The last thing he wanted to do was to run in and cast a spell in front of so many enemies when they might just turn and cut him down straight after. "Fethos de malsvir." He calls, another shield forms around him, protection from evil.

Cast then move 20ft. forward when the orcs aren't looking his way.

Round 5
He moves to use point blank shot. Aiming at a new target, the white orc in the lead.
goblin bane, comp. long bow +1: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 27
damage: 1d8 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 2 + 2 + 1 = 13

Round 6

He whispers into his ring and all but John hears him like he was talking, "Why should he run, where would he run too, if you can't handle melee get behind Joe."

Then again aiming at his target.

goblin bane, comp. long bow +1: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 19
damage: 1d8 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 2 + 2 + 1 = 12

Round 6
King Joseph steps forward and attacks the navy orc.
Escalavar: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30
Dmg.: 1d8 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (8) + 8 + (4, 2) = 22

Round 6
John hesitates for a second. He didn't want to run, but he trusted Niversal's judgement, and didn't hear the spooky ring whispers. Faltering could mean he didn't make it back in time. And as such, he is going to take the withdraw action, moving in a way that would bring him back towards the troops.
"Alright, but I don't like it! Stay alive and I'll be back ASAP!"

Round 6

"Oh that's right John doesn't have a ring. Jellena you need a powered attack in there?" He states quietly as John runs off.
