Game Master JASON RODARTE

Sometimes alchemical things are wonderful things to have, never know when you might run into something that you can't hurt with ordinary means or even magic. says the Halfling.

"I already carry a crowbar, so we should be good on that." Carini turns from Jelly to Janira. "Though some alchemical weapons sound prudent. If we can stop by an alchemist on the way out of the city, I'll pick up some items there."

Carini picks up 2 flasks of acid and a flask of alchemist's fire.

Make sure that you take the prices of those items off your gold

"If we are sufficiently prepared shall we make our way to Kortos?" Jelly says eagerly. Ready to prove himself to the Society and to his newfound group.

Emma drains her tankard and hops to her feet. "Sounds good to me." She agrees, "Will you still give me a gold if I yell 'Fire' as I run out the door?"

"As long as I'm the first one out!"Jelly yells as he hustles through the door.

Jared smiles. Younglings...

Kent nods.

"Agreed. Let us be on our way. The day is not becoming any younger..."

You head out on the road towards the cave. The Halfling is a nice companion and strikes up conversations.
As you enter into a wooded area your conversations are halted as you hear two creatures emerge from behind some fallen logs ahead of and behind you as two spider swarms emerge from the logs.

Go ahead and place your characters around the Halfling. I want to make sure you all can edit the map

Jared, can you please put your combat stats, HP and AC's as well as saves in the headings like the rest of the players please?

"Eeek!" Jelly let's out an involuntary, embarrassingly girlish squeak as the spiders emerge from hiding.

Totally slipped my mind. Should be good now.

...and I was like, "what in Erastil's name are you doing?" and he was just like "I'm"...
Jared realizes too late what is going on.

Emma looks around in confusion for the new girl?

Hard to get on lately. Emma is on the map and yes I can edit it.

So are we doing block actions? Like Janira and Emma same time, then Spider, then Carini, then spider, then Jelly Kent and Jared same time? Or are we waiting for each individual? Just want to be clear for the future.

Block actions seem to work better I have found on PbP

Janira begins a story that inspires you all, about pathfinders past that overcame difficulty

Inspire Courage +1 to hit and +1 damage

I agree. Just wanted to be sure on the basics. Now let's kill some spiders :)

"Oh I'm sure they've just popped up to say hello." Emma says sarcastically. Getting the ball rolling with a Magic Missile cast at the figure on the bottom of the map.

Magic Missile: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

the magic missile hits the swarm but it reforms.

The spiders come down and envelope both the cleric and the figher for
1d6 ⇒ 4 damage

Fighter 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
Cleric 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

They are both able to fight off the posion

F" 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
C: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

But they are nauseated for one round

Nauseated creatures are unable to attack, cast spells, concentrate on spells, or do anything else requiring attention. The only action such a character can take is a single move action per turn.

2nd swarm moves up and gets kent for
1d6 ⇒ 3 damage

Poison 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
1d2 ⇒ 2 STR
staggered 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
and staggered for one round

Jelly is up

Jelly pulls a torch from his pack and begins lighting it. (full round action) Others can light off my torch for a move action correct?

"Regular weapons won't work! If you have no way to fight them light your torch off mine!" Jelly yells in a frenzied panic.

Emma wasn't shooting at a swarm, she shot the guy at the bottom?

Site went haywire before i could edit earlier: As Jelly lights his torch, he scans the area for anything of use. (A dead limb with of leaves he can light to use as a larger two handed fire weapon, or something of that nature.)

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

I thought that guy didn't belong there since he wasn't mentioned. If he did I'd kind of like to change my action if possible.

Well, this sucks... Not that Jared would be much use fighting swarms anyway...

Jared will run away, confused, and ready to vomit.

What guy? There should only be 2 swarms. THe little guy is the Halfling bard, Janira

I think she's talking about the orcish-looking figure to the (south) of the map. I gave him a yellow border so he stands out.

You said two creatures emerge and two spider swarms. If it's only swarms then Emma wouldn't be using that spell on them.

Might have been bad editing and not taking everything off a previous map, all there is are the swarms.

Janira throws an alchemist fire at the bottom swarm
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
1d6 ⇒ 3

Emma casts shield on herself this round.

Covered in spiders and slightly nauseated from the multiple bites she's received, Carini can do nothing but attempt to flee the swarm. She moves, as quickly as she can, to the north.

The spider swarm #1 moves down and envelops Emma and Jelly
1d6 ⇒ 4 damage
poison saves:
Emma 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17
Jelly 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Jelly takes 1d2 ⇒ 1 STR

Staggered?
Jelly 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4 Staggered

Emma 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15 1 rd

Jelly swings his torch wildly at the bottom swarm. Hoping the fire damages the swarm.

torch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 161d3 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

I know torches count as fire damage vs swarms, I'm just unsure how much for PFS. Some things I read were just +1, so it's your call.

Spiders#2 continue to bite Kent
1d6 ⇒ 4 damage
1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 poison fights it off
1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19 staggered fights it off

Finally able to act, Kent staggers away from the swarm as fast as he can.

Move.

I got a little overzealous there, sorry. Work posting had me distracted. It won't happen again.

Dont't worry, with the site acting up it is hard to know when one might be able to post

What's the ruling on the torch? If it hit, is it doing the 1d3 or just a +1? I read a bunch of conflicting posts so I didn't know if it was GM ruling or if there is a PFS official verdict.

Kent I don't think you moved your avatar on the map linked at the top.

[OOC] It should do a 1d3 [/dice]

Jared knocks his bow.

Kent 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 fights off the initial poison bite in Round 1

END ROUND
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Janira 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23 throws another flask of alchemist fire at the swarm she hit before, which is still on fire
1d6 ⇒ 2 which takes it down.

Carini

What about my torch swipe? Was it a hit? Nothing ever happened. Staggered you get one move or one standard action right?

There is little Emma can do, so she stands ready to help if needed, watching for anything else that may pop up.

If you have a torch you could light it from mine. Taking it out one turn and lighting it the next

Doing something is better than doing nothing

The torch damage
