Aubrey's Wrath of the Righteous (Inactive)

Game Master Aubrey the Malformed

Init: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14

Initiative 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

My readied actions were also based on people coming through the door, so nothing is triggered.

Hannik Init: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13
Ghroth Init: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16

I gave coordinates for Ghroth as if he was large. He's not :P
K18 should do

I don't see why Hannik can't have her readied action - she can see the guy in the doorway easily enough to shoot him.

Lt Crossbow: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 1 = 10
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7

Hannik's bolt thuds into the door beside the tiefling's head. Kira's hits him in the shoulder and he staggers back, shouting hoarsely.

Tiefling 1 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
Tiefling 2 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21
Tiefling 3 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
Crusader 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

I'm assuming Kira's hit :)

End of surprise round, start of full actions. Rhok!

Map updated.

"Surprise, demon-spawn!" Rhok abruptly reverses course and charges back into the nearest tiefling, dagger flashing.

Move to M18 before attacking Tiefling 1 with my dagger (my Oracular Curse makes drawing a weapon a full-round action, and I'd rather attack with an inferior weapon than waste a turn). Attack roll 14+3=AC 17, damage 1d4+3=7. Nice!

Bad guys!

Rhok plunges his dagger through the tiefling's chest and he drops like a stone.

T1 down.

The other tiefling drops back rapidly away from danger, shouting an alarm. Rhok sees the crusader snarl angrily, swinging at the librarian with his mace. She staggers back, but the blow isn't fatal.

1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14 to hit, damage 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Tiefling 1 is no longer with us, so it's Ghroth.

Ghroth rounds the corner, flexes his webbed claws and walks in a straight line at the crusader. As he gets nearer he drops low, claws out in front and the spines running down the back of his head and back arch up.

MA: to M14
SA: Total Defense (AC 21)

Jod moves into the room, circling the crusader to get an angle on the tieflings.

Double move to R12

Jod and Ghroth step over the body in the doorway and head inside.

Sol, then Hannik. Thom said he might not be around, so could someone take his turn? I think the wall has outlived its usefulness at this point.

Map updated.

Sol allows the wall to fade as he moves forward drawing his dagger.

Double Move to L14, drawing dagger

Hannik.

Once the wall vanishes Hannik hustles to the building and reloads her crossbow just around the corner from the door.

Move to L18, Reload

Tiefling 3 is up

The demonspawn steps up and stabs at the librarian with a long dagger. "Die, you sanctified b!tch!" he hisses. but the brave librarian grabs his wrist and they begin to struggle.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 to hit, damage 1d6 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 1 + (3) = 5

Kira, then Mulluq.

Map updated.

Kira will double move to O14, drawing her long sword and letting the crossbow fall onto it's straps as she does so.

Mulluq moves up into the doorway of the building, at least as far as he can. From there he refocuses his mind on picking out the sources of evil, but he calls out while doing so. "Do not harm the innocents! By the righteousness of Iomedae, the Great Inheritor, I will send you back to the hell from whence your soul was tainted. Evil like yours will not be allowed to stain the sanctity of this great city."

Move, to M17
Standard, Detect evil Round 1: Presence of Evil

Murray

Mulluq:

Muray hangs about by the wall, unsure what to do.

Rhok.

No move. I pull out a scroll and cast Cause fear (my hardest hitting spell!) on the Crusader. He needs to succeed on a Will 14 save or be frightened.

Crusader Will save 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15

The crusader shakes off most of the effects of Rhok's spell, but nevertheless he feels the chill of fear.

Shaken for one round.

The crusader snarls to disguise his funk. He glares at Kira, squaring up to her. "Let's dance, sweetheart!" he sneers before crossing the floor, mace swinging in an arc.

Crusader charges Kira
1d20 + 9 - 2 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 9 - 2 + 2 - 2 = 23 to hit, damage 1d8 + 5 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 5 + 4 + 4 = 14

Meanwhile the tiefling tries to help its fellow finish off the librarian. He steal behind her and cuts her throat. She slumps to the floor in a pool of crimson.

1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 3 + 2 = 23 to hit, damage 1d6 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 1 + (5) = 12

Ghroth.

Map updated.

Ouch.

If they're killing hostages already, they know they're beat.

Sol:

Ghroth hisses as the crusader advances on Kira and lunges forward to meet him halfway with a wide clawed slash across his belly then catches his eye just before thrusting his tongue tentacle at his face. Hooked teeth latch onto the crusader's cheek and begin trying to chew their way in.

5' to N13
Claw 1, PA: 1d20 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 5 - 2 = 20 Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 2 = 7

Tongue Slam, PA, Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 5 - 2 = 17 Slam: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 2 = 9

Jod

The crusader screams hoarsely as Ghroth tears at his body.

Crit confirmed - nasty!

Jod.

Map updated.

"We need a healer! One down!"

Charge the throat-slitter, ending in P11.

Falchion attack: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 7 - 1 + 2 = 14 Power attack penalty, charge bonus

Damage: 2d4 + 9 ⇒ (3, 3) + 9 = 15

"Sorry, fresh out of unarmed girl librarians for you to terrorize. You probably tortured kittens during a mid-spent youth, didn't you?"

"Alisia!" Sol shouts, then drives forward to add his dagger to the fray.

If Jod doesn't put his teifling (T2) down, then move to N11 and engage in melee with T2.

Melee Dagger v T2, flank : 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 1 + 2 = 11 ... damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

OR -- If Jod does fell T2, then move to O11 and throw the dagger at T3.

Thrown Dagger v T3, point blank: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23 ... damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Edit: Thrown Dagger v T3, point blank, crit confirm : 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10 ... damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

The tiefling sidesteps Jod's sweep and blocks Sol's thrust.

Hannik.

Map updated.

Hannik grips her crossbow and rounds the corner, but Ghroth and Kira are crowded in on the closest guy. Rather than risk hitting either of them in the back she conjures a handful of acid and flings it at the crusader.

Move to M15
Unlikely to hit a target in melee, so I'll go for a ranged touch

Acid Splash PB, in melee: 1d20 + 3 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 3 + 1 - 4 = 11
Damage: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Tiefling 3

The crusader's skin instantly blisters where Hannik's acid lands.

The other tiefling manoeuvres round to flank Jod, stabbing with his sword.

T3 attacks Jod.
1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 3 + 2 = 24 to hit, damage 1d6 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 1 + (6) = 10
CRIT! 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 3 + 2 = 14 to confirm, extra damage 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Kira.

Map updated.

5ft step to P13, and attack.

Kira moves to put the enemy between herself and Ghroth for a little advantage.

Atk: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 2 = 5the +2 for flanking DMG: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Oh FFS!

Badly hurt by the crushing blow, Kira can barely lift her weapon.

Mulluq.

Map updated.

Mulluq decides that the evil has shown its hand, but he can't get to the hell-spawn directly. Instead he moves up to try and help Lady Valerious, so he can advance on the hellion that would cut down an unarmed innocent. His focus too intent on his real target, his swing is way too far from his current mark. "You have crossed the line, and by Iomedae's name, I will make you pay for your transgression!" He bellows, at the tiefling responsible for the cut throat.

Move, to O14
Standard, Attack Crusader 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Muray continues to hesitate.

Rhok.

Map updated.

Move to Q14 before casting Cure light wounds on Kira. She regains 1d8+2=8 hit points.

Is the throat-slit librarian still alive? Heal 11+4=15, if necessary.

Tiefling 2, then the crusader. This could get ugly.

Kira nods thanks to Rhok.

The crusader swings his mace at Kira again, hoping to take her out of the fight.

1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 9 - 2 = 27 to hit, damage 1d8 + 5 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 4 + 4 = 16
Erk, possible crit:
1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 9 - 2 = 13 to confirm, extra damage 1d8 + 5 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 5 + 4 + 4 = 14

Meanwhile, the tiefling stabs at Jod.

T2 attacks Jod
1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 3 + 2 = 17 to hit, damage 1d6 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 1 + (1) = 3

Ghroth.

Map updated.

Ghroth's claws and tentacle scrabble and rake across armor, but the crusader is on the defensive now and the eidolon doesn't manager to do much more than make a lot of noise.

Claw 1, PA: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (10) + 5 - 1 = 14 Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 2 = 10
Claw 2, PA: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (8) + 5 - 1 = 12 Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 2 = 6
Tongue Slam, PA: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 5 - 1 = 10 Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 2 = 9

Doesn't confirm, but Kira is unconscious. on -6HP

Kira crumples as she receives a heavy blow to the head.

The dice don't exactly love you, but it could have been worse.

Jod, then Sol.

Indeed, if that crit had succeeded she'd be dead.

I just realized that since Jod charged, the crit on him was successful. He's at 2 hp and will withdraw due north on the map 25' so if one follows him, they won't threaten the others.

Man we need Ghroth and Mulluq to come through now.

Sol fakes a thrust at his tiefling, then sidesteps and slashes at the crusader's back.

5' step to N12

Melee Dagger v C, flank: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 1 + 2 = 15 ... damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

As Jod backs off, Sol lunges. But the dagger just scrapes on armour.

That position doesn't benefit from flanking, unless there is something I am missing, not that it would hit anyway.

Hannik.

Map updated.

My position is wrong - I moved to Q14 last turn before I healed Kira.

Rectified.

Hannik conjures another glob of acid and flings it at the crusader. She glances over at the dying librarian with growing frustration. The tiefling over there would be on her before she could do anything to help, but this was taking too long. Maybe longer than the librarian has.

Ranged Touch Acid Splash, PB, Target in Melee: 1d20 + 3 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (9) + 3 + 1 - 4 = 9 Unlikely Damage: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
