Baldwin the Merciful's - CoT Campaign (Inactive)

Game Master baldwin the merciful

Works for me.

Since ya'll get up before me, here are some rolls:
perception 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (16) + 19 = 35
disable if needed 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (16) + 16 = 32
stealth 1d20 + 18 + 40 ⇒ (9) + 18 + 40 = 67

Lucrezia will be sneaking ahead, looking for traps after being invised with the +2 longsword out in case her and gerard sneak up on someone to flank.

The loud grinding clanking of the heavy portcullis lifting bounces off the stonework announcing that the door has been opened. The once raging fire in the doorway has now diminished to a five foot area, and the smell of both charred death permeates the air. From what Lucrezia and Gerard can tell from their initial movement down the death hall, is the room ahead is aglow in reddish amber haze.

Wait... Let her cast Shield, scroll. And give her Silence wand. If we ID a spell-caster, silence Gerard. Message with Andrea as switchboard.

Gerard move forward, attempting to ascertain the dimensions of the next room.

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15
Stealth: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (4) + 16 = 20

Yeah, this is going to be fun. Boo. With any luck I'll be up to 7/8 when combat begins.

Lucrezia continues to stealth down the hall as she looks out for both traps and anyone waiting in ambush.

Want a set of rolls for anything as we go down?

Lucrezia I'll use your first roll you post yesterday initially.

As the two of you reach the doorway you see the fire that has now been reduced, inside the room is a large table that has been turned on it's side smoking. There are two creatures there. The first is snake-bodied humanoid hisses with anger. Spines of crackling flame dance along the creature's blackened, fiery-red scales. The second creature has wickedly barbed chains adorn this lean figure, and gaps in the bindings reveal deathly pale flesh etched with jagged scars.

Lucrezia and Gerard knowledge - planes.

chained creature's perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 22
fiery snake: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (10) + 16 = 26

The fiery snake like creature hisses, we see you human. the room itself is quite a bit warmer than where you are standing.

You note that you do not see Henk or anyone else in the room, there are 4 coils of chains that you can see, there is puddle of goldish red liquid that is running in the grooves of the flagstone floor, and assorted array of gear is there mostly burning.

Unfortunately, I ran into the office this morning and I don't have the map to show you. I should be home by 4 and will update the map then. Before folks start taking action, I'll need to roll initiative and show the map, which I can't do at this point. In other words, I can't tell you where in the room they are since I don't have the map. Feel free to RP a bit.

Kn Planes, untrained: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

know planes 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Andrea hears the message.

Know Planes: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

This doesn't sound familiar, but it seems that there are two creatures in there. No Henk though. Do we want tot ake the bait?

If these are evil out siders, they would have taken 7d8 worth of damage if they were caught by the Holy Smite

If they were caught in the holy smite when it was cast.:-) An awful lot of time passed between the spell and the move into the room.

Thanks, now they're pissed!

Gerard 10 DC is the highest untrained DC.

They generally look odd to you, you've never seen or herd of anything like this in your travels. The one looks like lizard with a tail, and it looks sturdy on its feet. It does have a spear made of glowing hot metal.

From memory

There is door on the left hand wall inside the room that is closed rough 15 or 20 feet in the roomIts from memory so the exact location needs tobe filled in later. Sorry

What you quoted I don't see where you orignally said that or said it.

After their perception checks, not bolded.

Did I interrupt a mating ritual?

Messin' RP until we get down.

Lucrezia will attempt to move around the creatures, I will be more specific when the map goes up.
Do I have any idea whether a silver or a magical weapon would work better?

Lucrezia not with your knowledge planes roll. I'll hold off doing any movements till I get home, I'm leaving the office now to pick up my daughter but will be home by 4.

Do I hear any of that via the MESSAGE? If so, Knowledge:Religion 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Know Religion is not going to tell you anything especially since you can't see what they vaguely described

MAP for Lucrezia and Gerard's POV

The snake/lizard is haloed red, the chain thing is yellow.

Lucrezia make acro roll to avoid the fire in the doorway. Gerard you will need too if you go in the room.

anyone going in the room via the door way will need to make an acro to get by the fire.

Boom.

Lucrezia is waiting to see what Gerard does before she moves.

The table in the middle is the table with the flames on it is the smoking table previously described. the coils of chain at at the tables corners on the map. the door on the left is 25 feet down the left hand wall when looking North.

Response to my taunt?

Lucrezia is waiting to see what Gerard does before she moves.

Make one Acro DC 14 check to get over the fire in the doorway.

Did I interrupt a mating ritual?

Messin' RP until we get down.

I didn't realize you were taunting the two creatures.

The chained creature snickers at you as it swings a chain with incredible dexterity. "Gouging and flying your flesh will be huge turn on for me." It says as a matter of fact.

make perception Gerard

acro 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

Lucrezia you manage to get beyond the fire without incident and without catching any gear on fire to reveal where you are.

how far is the chain reaching?

He is twirling the chain casually 10 feet away from him but then he will slide it within 5 feet. This clearly shows you he can use it both as a reach and near by him.

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

Gerard - Damn if those are your gloves sitting on the ground next to smoking table.

Back! Great movie!

Hearing that there are strange otherworldly creatures in the room, Andrea touches Orsin's blade and murmurs a spell.[/b]

ALign weapon, good aligned 7 minutes

(Whisper message) If these are anything like the Erynies, we will need special weapons or spells to damage. Let us kill them.

Wasn't exactly what you all were expecting in this room, I bet.

Gerard steps into the flames, but not out. From within the flames a flight of the daggers erupt, seeking the flame-beast.

1d20 + 12 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 12 - 2 = 18
damage 1d8 + 5 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (4) + 5 + 5 - 1 = 13

Lucrezia uses her magic bow to shoot some silver arrows at the chain devil looking thingy.

Make refelx save when you are in the flame DC 14 for half damage. Although I doubt it will effect you.
damage: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Surprise Round action: Lucrezia

One of your arrows hit the creature it winces. "Lovely wench, I'll just further enjoy stripping the flesh from your hide. Layer by layer, listening to you wiggle and squirm."

Gerard your action is noted you're a little later in the.

Lucrezia do you have spiked chain on you?

RD1: Kyton

The creature hisses and animates two of the nearby chains( N9, N12) and they begin to dance and twirl around.

One chain lashes out in the direction the arrow came

Lucrezia: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25;damage: 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (4, 2) + 2 = 8

The second chain extends its 10 feet then lashes out anther 15 feet at Lucrezia. I've haloed the dancing chains white on the map.

Lucrezia: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26;damage: 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (1, 2) + 2 = 5

"Yes listen to the flesh rip....absolutely delightful."

Updated Map

If Luc cast Shield, those both miss. And wow, no love for the bad-assery.

Reflex Save: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18

Did Lucrezia cast shield? I missed that if she did.

Why does the devil's talk turn me on?

Lucrezia is not carrying any chains upon her person.

Figuring that the devil is controlling the chains, Lucrezia fires her new bow at it again.

evil outsider, magical bow, silver arrows, using rapid shot this turn...
attack 1 1d20 + 18 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 18 - 2 - 2 = 27

confirm rapid shot 1d20 + 12 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (19) + 12 - 2 - 2 = 27
damage 2d8 ⇒ (2, 6) = 8

Lucrezia does not have shield

I asked she cast it from our scroll. Also, do these guys qualify for the Andoren Freadom Fighter trait? Are they slavers or are they holding folks (sp we count) against their will? Of so attacks were 26/23/26 and damage was with Divine Favor) 22/26/21=69.

Didn't pay attention to the fact that we had a scroll of it when you told me to cast it. Though wouldn't I have to roll for armor failure?
