Baldwin the Merciful's - CoT Campaign (Inactive)

Game Master baldwin the merciful

I'm waiting on others to post before continuing.

Was there a Reflex save for the acid?

No saving throw on acid fog

DMPC Orsin:

know arcana: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17

The bard reaches into his Haversack and calls forth his scroll of of gust of wind. He begins to chant the words in a swirling cadence then a powerful line of wind carves a path to the door. The gust pushes on the rogue standing in the path. "Hurry!"

Andrea hurries through the door with the others.

The party hurries inside a short hallway that has three doors.

Orsin yells, "Hurry UP! The acid is coming back! His spell created a line effect of 50 mph wind that parted the thick billowing acid cloud but it did not disperse the surrounding areas.

Which way?

The first door! Andrea points. Not sure where the doors are aligned

H10/11 (east) is the first door on the right as soon as you enter, then there is short hallway on right and there is another door there G,11/12 (east), and the last door is at the end of the main hall you entered E, 10 (north).

Or you can all huddle in the hall squeeze into the main hallway and close the door behind you.

Gerard gives the doors a once over.

Perception, east close: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (14) + 15 = 29
Perception, east far: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (11) + 15 = 26
Perception, north: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 15 = 20

North! Plus shut the door behind us.

At the pace everyone has to move to avoid the acid you'll only notice they are reinforced doors. Similar to the one you just entered.. Perception to intentionally notice details is move action.

Map with everyone squeezing in the a hallway

Frank is no doubt perched on Euphemia's head in the crush.

North or east here, we can't stay squashed up.

Perception, traps, whatever door he's near: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (20) + 15 = 35

Daniel makes sure he is last in and closes the door behind them.

Gerard you see the sturdy looking door which has a key hole and lock. You are confident that it is not trapped, Your group is the sole source for light.

Holding a dagger up... Someone imbue my dagger with Daylight.

Andrea uses a charge from the Wand of Daylight on Gerard's dagger.(10 charges left)

Andrea then starts buffing the group
Imbue with Spell Ability+True strike on Euphemia (Until used)
Magic Circle against Evil on Orsin (+2 AC +2 Saves v. Evil, protects against Evil mind control 110 minutes)

Resist Fire-Communal on everyone(30 points fire resistance 22 minutes)
Resist Cold-Communal on everyone (30 points cold resistance 22 minutes)
Resist Lightning on Euphemia/Frank (30 points lightning resistance 110 minutes)

Your reign of Hedgehog abuse shall not endure!

Sheathing his blade, Gerard opens the door... peering inside, using his goggles.

Andrea spends her first round on using the Wand of Daylight. You may not have time for all those buffing rounds.

Bump, in case you missed G's post... Within 10 sec of yours.

This simple chamber has a pair of wooden cots, a table with a hogshead and a number of metal tankards, and two heavy winches bolted to the walls, their chains running through small openings in the ceiling. A single chair sits before a peephole cut into the western wall. There is a door to the north.

Gerard alright no daylight on your dagger.
Gerad I need you to make perception check.

Perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (13) + 15 = 28

Daylight is on dagger, it's just sheathed. Contingency, and when throwing like a strobe.

Gerard you notice there is a seeping misty haze under the far door. I looks like it could be acid like but your unsure.

Map from Gerard's POV

In the new room?

directly across from you...C,10

Seeping in (growing) or out (receding)?

It looks like a misty haze it doesn't seem to be doing either at this time. There are some fluctuation but nothing that puts it in a receding or growing category.

What is everyone else doing? Andrea what is the first buff that you intend to cast, after using the daylight wand?

Party in tight quarters......Resist Elements-Communal(Fire)

Some mist...

Gerard advances, ignoring the mist and surveying the next door.

Perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 19

Daniel shifts position to back up the rogue

"Wish we weren't packed in so tight. Feeling a little vulnerable here."

Gerard, are you going to move ahead?

As Gerard steps into the room the mist takes form as vampire spawn emerge from under the door and the peephole.

Surprise:

Gerard: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
VS: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

The quick rogue gets the jump on the undead.

After the Surprise Rd:

COT Initiative
Andrea: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Orsin: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
Daniel: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
Euphemia: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

*Daniel since you only have 2 uses of the tactician ability, you've used it both times for he day.

Use 1

Use 2

Initiative:

Gerard
Orsin
Andrea
Daniel
Phem
VS

Map

This is gonna... suck.

As Gerard quick draws his weapon, it emanates daylight pushing back the dark and gloom.

atk, dist dagger +2, wf, aff, flat-footed: 1d20 + 14 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 14 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 36
dmg, dist dagger +2, aff, sneak: 1d4 + 2 + 1 + 6d8 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 1 + (8, 8, 6, 7, 3, 1) = 40

They are physical/solid? Also need to know if it's still up.

Round 1

Gerard steps toward the further spawn, attacking it.

Don't feel bad, I've not forgotten about you. Gonna suck for you, too.

atk1, dist dagger +2, wf, aff, flat-footed: 1d20 + 14 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 14 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 37
dmg1, dist dagger +2, aff, sneak: 1d4 + 2 + 1 + 6d8 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 1 + (7, 5, 1, 4, 1, 8) = 33

atk2, dist dagger +2, wf, aff, flat-footed: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 9 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 22
dmg2, dist dagger +2, aff, sneak: 1d4 + 2 + 1 + 6d8 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 1 + (3, 6, 4, 5, 3, 8) = 34

At the beginning of the surprise round they have a physical form for you Gerard.

The daylight from the dagger has the vampire spawn blink but has no noticeable effect on them. The dagger is flicked and hits the vampire then flies back to the Gerard's hand.

The spawn falls to the ground.

Surprise Round:

The spawn on the ground turns gaseous.

The remaining VS will use it's dominate (SU) ability which does not provoke an AOO on Gerard. DC 14 Will save.

Will Save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

The rogue stares into the creature's eyes, nearly mesmerized.

Out of my head, fiend.... Gerard shakes his head, trying to throw something off.

Euphemia's eye twitches at the fact someone just invaded Gerard's mind.

HP 81/81
Current Saves: F12R5W115
AC: 24/T12/FF24
In hands: Wooden shield+2,Long sword +2
Current BaB: +9/+4
Spells in Effect:

Bit of Luck 7/8

Andrea continues casting Resist Fire-Communal (done)

Gerard hits his next target twice sending and it slumps to the ground. On it's turn, it turns gaseous.

While the first one, floats under the door.

They (VS) are last on Init in Round 1. We get to mess with them...

What is going on? what are we fighting?

Vamps, maybe...

As the others push into the room they see a misty gaseous haze near the peephole.

If they have turned gaseous we need to find their coffins! If they go back to them they will be back in an hour...block the peephole!

Well done, Gerard.

The rogues fast reflexes dispatching the spawn, Daniel checks for enemies.
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

Oh I am so tense. I know we are so close and wish I could just kiss Fiosa, touch her, make love to her before the end. I'm so pathetic my goddess, I am a traitor, whiner, love-sick fool that rages against those who fiddle while this city burns. I don't want the only rest I can have to be that of the grave...
