Baldwin the Merciful's - CoT Campaign (Inactive)

Game Master baldwin the merciful

This is Council of Thieves AP. Westcrown, City of Twilight, once was the center of Aroden's faith, but now it symbolizes despair. By day, the city remains a vibrant center of trade; but, by night only those with a death wish venture out.

Lucrezia there is an intense pulse of right light, that is nearly blinding on the pupils coming from beyond the landing of the stairs.

[Is the marching order good for everyone. The stairs widen where two can go abreast: Truk/Grim, Lucrezia/Andrea, Orsin/Faleyn, Fluer/John? Or do you want something else?

Evil GM

Andrea and others, can you list the buffs that are in place. You've used about a minute and a half of time since entering summoning room. That would include searching the room, figuring out the door, fighting rats, healing and getting to the bottom on the steps.
Evil GM

As the group gets to the landing a couple things pop out to them, first you are standing in long hallway that has several sets of single and double doors. Second, in front of you is set of broken double huge vault doors of stone once barred the way down this massive dark hall. Third, there is an eery looking gaunt humanoid walking towards you, 40 feet away (bottom of the map). Lastly, you do not see the pulsating light.

Anyone with a Know Religion can make roll. Everyone can roll a perception too, if they like.

You don't have the best angle to see the humanoid approaching from the lower hallway but you do believe it's undead...perhaps a wight or vampire spawn or zombie

Andrea Only:

You really really don't know the type of humanoid approaching from the lower hallway.

Grimm Only:

You don't have the foggiest idea about want is approaching.
Evil GM

Perception Check Results:

Truk:
The stone door in front you looks heavily battered.

John:

From your rear POV, the stone door in front of you looks scarred and chipped from battering.

Grimm:
Besides the heavily battered stone doors that were forced open, you see a second set of stone doors down the long rubble filled hallway in front of you. You hear shuffling from beyond that second door. You see the humanoid moving up towards your group coming from the bottom hallway, it has a red glaring menacing look on its face.

Lucrezia and Andrea:
You can a second humanoid hanging, 20 feet high from the ceiling but it is 40 feet away. It has a feral look in its wanton eyes.(hex G16) There is, also, a vapor like mist floating at the ceiling near hex S15.

Figuring that the mist is most likely not a good thing, Lucrezia will fire at it with a couple of her ghost salt arrow.

The creature on the ceiling that Fluer shot at moves forward to J15 and tries to effect Fluer. One the map I put the fly wings on him, is is actually on the ceiling like a spider.

The elf shakes her head wildly trying to clear her thoughts.

"What are they?", Truk growls as the creatures advance in unnatural ways. "Stay close", he warns.

I was kind of waiting to see what John did.

Andrea remembers some words from the past....

The Knot:
Good...good. Ole Ilnerik journeyed towards Nidal and each day his flesh burned in the sunlight, unable to sleep at night and useless during the day. The same day he crossed into Nidal, he crawled into a hole and died. Ironic that was the same day Aroden died and Cheliax was thrown into chaos." Szasmir flexes his claws.

"Oh...don't worry, Ilnerik rose again the next moon. Since then he has learned to bend shadows to his will and he learned about the real power of the bat head relic - once a sacred treasure of a now-dead demon lord of the bats and shadows named Vyriavaxus." He spits when he mentions demon lord and then again at Vyriavaxus' name.

Liriam:
It is, of course, my fervent hope that the reader of this missive is a friend of the Pathfinders. In the days before the madness and riots, before Cheliax tore itself apart, there were signs that the end was coming. Among those was Delvehaven’s desertion by one of her own. I now believe that Ilnerik stole half of the Aohl—the Totemrix—and judging by the growing power and magical potential of the Morrowfall, I fear that Ilnerik has unwittingly exposed himself to magic fell and vile. The power building in the Morrowfall is frightening, and we’ve secured it deep below Delvehaven in a vault called the Amber Arca. If my theory is correct and the Totemrix is a Vyriavaxian relic, then Ilnerik is being exposed to shadowy magic of a great evil. If he hasn’t become a vampire by this time, I fear he soon will.

Bisby:
His vacant eyes look at Andrea, “Dark spirits” have recently passed though these halls, and that even now I can feel their intrusions in the vault below, beyond my reach. My protection has weakened since the blasted Thrune devils tried to exercise my spirit.
Worse, these “dark spirits” have in them a hideous familiarity—Bisby worries that his old friend Ilnerik is behind their appearance, and that they seek to destroy the Morrowfall, which even now works to oppose the Totemrix. With the Morrowfall’s destruction, who knows
what shadowy growth and vile magic the keeper of the Totemrix might unleash?"

Know-Religon: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13

Andrea reaches into her pouch where she keeps her scrolls, the gifts Liriam left in the Wavedoor now pushing right into her foremost thoughts. Andrea's fingers close about the itemand she pulls ity outMove Action and thrusts the scroll of Sunburst towards Faelyn.

Faelyn! We are going to need this very soon!

Andrea then casts Death Ward on Faelyn.

He needs to stay up long enough to use this.

Lucrezia seems to letting her own inner wolf out as she lets out a long, loud howl.

Haste action: Casting Hunter's Howl to treat Undead as a Favored enemy for 7 rounds if they fail the will save, dc 13.

hunter's howl:

Hunter's Howl

School necromancy [fear, mind-affecting]; Level ranger 1

Casting Time 1 standard action

Components V, S

Range 20 ft.

Area 20-ft.-radius burst

Duration 1 round/level

Saving Throw Will negates; Spell Resistance none

With a single primal howl, you strike fear in your opponents. Until the end of the spell's duration, you treat those affected by it as if they were your favored enemy, gaining a +2 bonus on weapon attack and damage rolls against them, and a +2 bonus on Bluff, Knowledge, Perception, Sense Motive, and Survival checks against them. If an affected creature is already one of your favored enemies, it is shaken instead. This is a mind-affecting fear effect.

Lucrezia then turns to focus on the figure closing in on the other side of the group.

Okay, I can't seem to be of much use against that mist for some reason, so let's try something that looks a little more solid.

This time reaching for her alchemical silver arrows, Lucrezia lets them fly towards the creature.
