Beginners Arc Table B (Inactive)

Game Master Awenydd83

Just as a side note.. if you have a thing against funky feet, DO NOT do a google image search on the work "Fungus"... Bleh... it was horrible!!

Despite the team chomping at the bit to continue, Egil suddenly holds them back. He recognizes the creature before them for what it is, and tosses a sling bullet at it to prove it to the others. When the bullet hits, the carpet of fungi rears up to reveal the disgusting ooze of refuse that it truly was.

Vlazis looks at the fungus in disgust. Even the mindless know to kneel before the First King, but we are too tightly packed in...

He ducks down a side tunnel, crying out encouragement to Theon
Enjoy your +2 Insight to AC, CMD, Attacks, and skills for a round!

"I don't think I have anything that hurts it"

I'll go for vulnerabilities if I can know something about it.

Egil smiles wryly as he identifies the monster.

"We must get past this! We will get past this!" he says as he grabs his axe.

Inspired Rage (+2 Str/Con; +1 Will) for anyone that wants to accept it!

Not accepting the song, just cause Skai likes to keep her wits about her..

"This seems as good a time to throw one of those alchemist fire's Janira talked about."

Skai pulls one out and throws it.

Touch Attack: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 4 + 1 = 15
Fire Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Vlazis grants Theon a boon from the gods, while Zarzuket tries to think of what to do to harm this creature. Egil starts his raging song, while Skai pulls out an alchemists fire.
Alchemist's fire has a range increment of 10 ft, and you are currently 50' from the creature. You may keep the roll, but need to move up before you throw. You still have a move action this turn if you wish.

Oops - didn't look at the map first.

Skai moves up and lobs her grenade at the center of the mass. (-2 for range, but I expect that will still hit).

Skai steps forward and lobs the vial of liquid fire. Amazingly it hits, coating the creature in fire. Unfortunately, it does not seem to have any effect on the creature as it quickly burns out.

The fungoid mass heaves and pitches, reacting to the clear presence of food.. but stays where it is.

Clearly disappointed at the outcome, Skai opens Janira's bag to see what else she has. "Maybe acid will work better?"

She pulls out the vial and throws it at the fungus.

Ranged Touch attack: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 8 - 2 = 7

"Oops. Slippery little thing!"

Where'd it go, George?: 1d8 ⇒ 6

Skai tosses the vial a bit too hard this time.. it flies through the air over the disgusting pile of ooze and lands down the tunnel behind it.

Theon moves forward to engage the massive slime, but the tight confines causes his glaive to catch on the walls.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9 Okay, now this has become ridiculous...
Damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Egil, surely you and Theon can hold the line against this thing!

Enjoy your +2 Insight to AC, CMD, Attacks, and skills for a round!

Zarzuket tries his crossbow

attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19

damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Dont know if this will work!

Theon moves into position, and despite ringing off of one wall, the glaive easily sinks into the mass of fungus and slime.

Vlazis lends some godly aid to Theon for his next attack, while Zarzuket tosses in a crossbow bolt. It doesn't do much, but it does strike the creature.

Sorry, my post wasn't clear enough, but my most recent boost is going to Egil(since he seems more likely to need the +2 AC if he goes in swinging)

Egil seems eager to reach the front line, but in the tight quarters can't reach the thing. He settles for slinging another stone at it.

sling: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 151d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 2 = 6

Thanks for the buff, but I can' reach it this round and still attack.

Vlazis: thank you!
Egil: You had you ax in hand in your last post. I believe that moving, drawing, loading, and firing the sling would be too many actions for one round. Move action, Draw= Move action, Load= Move action, Fire= Standard

Still too many actions with a +0 BAB Egil. However, we can keep your dice roll for this turn.

Egil drops his ax in favor of his sling, drawing it out and loading it.

The mold tries to move around, but the rocky confines of the area in which it has chosen to grow now form its own prison.

I really dislike this encounter, and all three tables rolled for the slime mold... its like shooting fish in a barrel!

Theon lets out a thankful sigh as the shuddering mass of mold seemingly cannot reach him! He strikes out with Dawnbreaker again, cutting deep into the slime!

Attack: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (18) + 5 - 1 = 22
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 3 = 12

With one last mighty blow, Theon destroys the slime that is blocking the passage! The team hurries through the caverns, Janiras voice becoming clearer and more distinct as you move closer. Soon, the pure white radiance of star and moon light filters in through a cave mouth in front of you. As you rush out, you can see the battle raging below you between a very tired looking Janira, and an equally harassed Minotaur.

The silvery moonlight of the surface world above provides a welcome reprieve from the blue and green fungus of the caverns below, and glimmering star light illuminates a stream whose water is hastened by runoff from a recent storm further up the mountains. A ledge to the west rises up to the nearby forest canopy.

Shaded green areas are difficult terrain and provide concealment. The stream is about 10 feet wide and 5 feet deep in this area, and the water moves downstream from east to west at 30 feet per round. Treat this as rough water, which requires a DC 15 Swim check to navigate. A Large creature can walk through the water as though it were difficult terrain with a successful DC 12 Strength check. On a failed Strength check, such a creature is checked and unable to move farther that turn. A 3-foot-diameter tree truck spans the width of the river, creating an impromptu bridge. The trunk is slippery from the splashing water, and crossing it at half speed requires a successful DC 7 Acrobatics check, during which time the creature is treated as flatfooted for moving on a narrow surface. If the creature fails this check, it falls into the water unless it succeeds at a DC 13 Reflex save, in which case it lands prone on the trunk instead.

Weak and tired, Janira continues to battle on, calling out invectives against the minotaur as she steps back away from the beast, flicking out her whip. it leaves an angry red welt, but fails to rip the minotaurs axe from its hands.
Whip: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Dmg: 1d2 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0

Theon immediately rushes toward their beleaguered comrade, shouting for her to fall back. "Janira! We are here, fall back across the river if you can!"

Double move.

Skai starts moving toward the log across the river.

Zarzuket moves with the rest of the party. Pip jogs behind.

"Wait for me!"

double move

Can someone move me please on my phone

Ah, the joys of a +0 BAB class. I always forget I can't draw a weapon as part of my move action.

Egil breathes in the fresh air as they emerge from the cave. Seeing Janira fighting the minotaur below in the moonlight, he bellows a challenge across the clearing.

"Finally! A foe worthy of a legendary battle!" He draws his axe and prepares to engage.

Move action to draw weapon, standard action to Inspired Rage (+2 Str/Con; +1 Will) for anyone that wants it.

Sorry, was out of pocket since Thursday. Moved Zarzuket as requested.

Lorÿndahl moves at top speed towards the fallen tree trunk, shouting, "We're coming, Janira!"

thanks Loryndahl!

Welcome back, Loryndahl! I was starting to get worried. I am back myself.. turns out a nasty virus managed to get through my firewall and virus protection. Everything is good now.
Vlazis: Considering the odd initiative setup here, if you would like to post your action with the rest of the group or in a spoiler, go ahead and do so and I will just work it in at the right time.

Egil starts up a battle song while drawing his ax, and the rest of the team races towards the beleaguered halfling!

Meanwhile, the minotaur roars in defiance of the newcomers, and steps forward, looking to end this pesky nuisance before help can arrive!
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14
Fortunately for Janira, the wild swings don't come close.

After Vlazis,
Janira steps back again and once more her whip lashes out, but fails to connect this time.

Vlazis advances towards the Minotaur, If we strike as one, victory will be ours!

Casting Bless, should hit the whole party. I think initiative should work out; it's kind of like I'm at the top of the order and skipped turn one.

Zarzuket hurries towards the log. double move again sorry on phone again this morning if someone can move me

He tries to cross the log slowly.

acrobatics: 1d20 ⇒ 10

"Watch out for that dammed Minotaur!

Pip follows behind.

Pip tries to go over the log.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11

"Wait! he cries.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

Lorÿndahl bounds across the log, then calls out to Calistria, "For your glory, grant me your favor so that I can dispatch this beast!"

Move Action: Move 30' south.
Std Action: cast Divine Favor

Moving Zarzuket and catching Pip up to him as I forgot to move him last time.

Skai continues to try to cross the river, not really sure what she will do when she gets there.

Ready to face a challenging foe, Egil runs as fast as he can toward the stream.

"RaaaahhHHHHH! Over here, you bovine coward! Fight me!"

double move

Swim: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

Theon quickly swims across the stream and prepares himself to engage the raging beast...

Vlazis casts bless, while Zarzuket at Pip make it across the log to the other side. Added a blue line on the map as a rough 50 range for Bless
Thank you once again, Loryndahl. I thought of moving Pip last night, but wasn't sure if he was tagging along for this one or not!

Loryndahl makes it across the bridge, then casts Divine Favor upon herself.
Skai and Egil make it to the log, while Theon just swims across the stream.

Ignoring Egils challenges, the minotaur remains focused on little Janira. He lands one solid blow on her, causing her to cry out in pain, stumbling over the weight of the blow.
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Dmg: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 1) + 4 = 6

Janira steps back, this time angling towards Theon, glad to see the back up coming. She starts an inspirational oration, telling the deeds of long gone Pathfinders.

Loryndahl gets a +2 insight bonus on attack rolls, AC, combat maneuver defense, and skill checks for 1 round

Also, if I'm reading Bless correctly, I don't think people need to stay within 50' of me after the spell has been cast to benefit, which probably only means that Janira won't get the benefit.

No one is bolded but I assume we are all up.

Skai carefully (half speed) moves across the log, and then continues on toward the battle.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

I'll move 20' up if I have to get in range. Thanks for moving my token :)

Zarzuket waives his hand and casts grease on the creatures axe.

"Take that!"

DC 16 Reflex

Lorÿndahl bursts forward and lashes out with her scorpion whip at the hulking beast.

Courageously Blessed and Favored Scorpion Whip: 1d20 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 21 for slashing damage of : 1d6 + 3 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 + 2 = 9

Theon moves tactically down the brush to avoid presenting himself as a target, placing himself directly between the minotaur and Janira. He slashes down hard upon the rampaging creature with Dawnbreaker! "Run Janira, get to safety!"

Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (19) + 5 + 1 + 1 - 1 = 25
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 3 + 1 = 18

Actions: Move - Move into position in such a way to avoid provoking any AoO. Standard - Attack the minotaur with Power Attack. Also, if the minotaur moves anywhere without taking a 5' step, he will provoke an AoO from Theon due to his Reach of 10'.

Egil nimbly makes his way over the log. With his axe leading the way, he prepares to strike.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17

Moving at half speed just gets me over the log.

I hope that gnomish buffoon doesn't expect me to use this club on that bull creature. I haven't fought in decades. What I wouldn't give for a warm meal and a pipe of tobacco now.

Vlazis: As much as I thought I knew that spell, I cannot find a ruling going either way on this. With that in mind, we will go with your interpretation.

Vlazis lends aid to Loryndahl, while Skai almost dances over the log bridge. Zarzuket takes a few steps forward before casting a spell on the minotaurs ax. Despite the weapon suddenly becoming slippery, the beast maintains its hold.
Reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

Loryndahl flicks out her whip, slashing a deep line across the bovine torso. Theon steps in to protect the wounded and weary halfling, stabbing Dawnbreaker deep into the creatures shoulder!

Meanwhile, Egil makes it across the bridge and prepares to throw himself into the fight.

The minotaur decides against trying to keep hold of his slick weapon and tosses it to the side with a bellow of challenge. He steps in on Theon, lowering his horns and trying to gore the man. Luckily, the horns just barely glance off of his armor.
Gore: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

Janira steps back under the cover of Theon, dropping her whip and drawing her crossbow to load it while keeping up her oration.

Vlazis finds himself falling, but at the last moment is able to catch himself. He lies prone on the bridge, halfway across.
Going to need another acrobatics check to make it the rest of the way across!

Skai takes up a position behind the minotaur and uses her whip to no usefull effect.

Attack: 1d20 + 0 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 0 + 1 + 1 = 3

Zarzuket casts summon nature's ally and steps to the side. An eagle appears and charges the minotaur. AoO?

Hope this helps

The eagle attacks flying in.

bite: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

In an instant Pip vanishes.

Theon grits his teeth against the rage he feels pulsing through his body from Egil's song! He laughs as the horns glance off his armor and he takes another step back, always keeping himself between Jamie's and the beast. He follows with another devestating blow from Dawnbreaker!

Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (19) + 5 + 1 + 1 - 1 = 25
