Chapter 6: Crown of Fangs! (Inactive)

Game Master James Martin

"Yep, as Slumper said I may be able to have elementals to scout. However it could alert them to our presence and leave us without Thrak."

If we bypassed those demon frogs we should bypass these too

The singing continues, now moving on to a very scandalous song about a drunken sailor and three women of ill repute.

There seems to be a shaft going up across the way. However, you will need to pass by the singing women's room. I shall require stealth checks!

Pai can use her Invisibility Field school power to make herself Invisible as the Greater Invisibility spell, so she can get a nice +20 bonus on her Stealth check.

i have a bad feeling about this...
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19 stealth

Stealth 1d20 + 12 + 20 ⇒ (10) + 12 + 20 = 42

Stealth: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (18) + 23 = 41

Stealth
me 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12
Thrak 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23

It almost worked... But Paxs steps on a loose flagstone that rise and falls with a (it seems to the stealthy party) near deafening thud. The singing stops and in a breath, four formerly angelic women with blackened wings and terrible smiles on their face emerge from the chamber. They take one look at the look of you (even the poor invisible Pai!) and cry a warcry and attack!

Initiative!
Pai: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Slumper: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Paxs: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
Corbyn: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
Ruperta: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
Furies: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Round 1:

24 Corbyn
23 Furies
20 Pai and Paxs
18 Ruperta
5 Slumper

Corbyn is up! Map is updated! Teen Titans are go!

Know. Planes 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (7) + 24 = 31 Resistances, Immunities, etc. if I rolled high enough, DM.

Resistances: Acid, Cold. SR. DR /good
Immunities: Fire, Poison.
I think you have one more bit of info, if you'd like it.

Resistances: Acid, Cold. SR. DR /good

Immunities: Fire, Poison.
I think you have one more bit of info, if you'd like it.

Whatever else you want to give me is fine, DM.

They possess true seeing constantly as well as a rope attack that allows them to entangle a single foe.

"Be careful. These baddies are immune to fire and poison, they resist acid, cold, and weapons that aren't good! They can see invisible creatures, like me, and watch out for their ropes...they can truss you up good!"

Corbyn will move up and attack with Serithtial.

Attack: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (7) + 21 = 28
Damage: 1d6 + 6 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 6 + (6, 2) = 19
if opponent is flat-footed
Sneak Attack: 7d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 2, 2, 3, 3, 2) = 18

Corbyn moves up and slashes hard with Serithiel. The fury hisses, more in anger at the holy blade's bite than at the damage.

The fury that Corbyn hit lashes back with a flaming trident!
Power Attack: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (4) + 21 = 25 for 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (8) + 24 = 32 plus 1d6 ⇒ 2 fire!
Power Attack: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (7) + 16 = 23 for 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (3) + 24 = 27 plus 1d6 ⇒ 3 fire!
Power Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30 for 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (7) + 24 = 31 plus 1d6 ⇒ 5 fire!
Power Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20 for 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (6) + 24 = 30 plus 1d6 ⇒ 4 fire!

The one next to her steps five feet and attacks Thrak!
Power Attack: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (8) + 21 = 29 for 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (5) + 24 = 29 plus 1d6 ⇒ 1 fire!
Power Attack: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (16) + 16 = 32 for 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (4) + 24 = 28 plus 1d6 ⇒ 6 fire!
Power Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18 for 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (6) + 24 = 30 plus 1d6 ⇒ 2 fire!
Power Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10 for 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (1) + 24 = 25 plus 1d6 ⇒ 2 fire!

The two in the back throw their ropes at Ruperta and Pai!
Ranged Touch: Entangling Rope vs Pai!: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (4) + 24 = 28
Ranged Touch: Entangling Rope vs Ruperta!: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (1) + 24 = 25

If hit, the rope entangles you, requiring a DC 23 Strength check or a DC 20 Escape Artist check to get free!

The rest of the party is up!

If AC 30 against Corbyn hits, a Crit confirm?: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16 for an additional 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (4) + 24 = 28 damage and Flaming Burst: 1d10 ⇒ 8 fire damage!

Pai uses her Boots of Escape to teleport as far south as she could in this room, while still in the room.

The boots don't specify, but I'd imagine it's a standard action for them to work. If you think it's less than that, let me know and I'll post a standard action for this round.

Slumper attacks the demon angel closest to him.

1d20 + 20 ⇒ (18) + 20 = 38rapier
1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 1 = 13
1d20 + 15 ⇒ (9) + 15 = 24rapier

1d4 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18
1d20 + 23 ⇒ (1) + 23 = 24shield
1d4 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18

crit confirm 1
1d20 + 20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 20 + 4 = 31rapier
1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 1 = 11
crit confirm 2
1d20 + 10 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 10 + 4 = 19rapier
1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 1 = 10

If they hit the demon has a DC24 Fort save or staggered for 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 1st 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 2nd rounds They stack if both hit. If they make both Fort saves it would just be 1 round each

Paxs casts haste on the group while Thrak retaliates.

Thrak 45 hps
Bite 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (17) + 20 = 37, 2d6 + 1d6 + 1d6 + 24 ⇒ (1, 5) + (2) + (4) + 24 = 36
Bite 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (4) + 20 = 24, 2d6 + 1d6 + 1d6 + 24 ⇒ (3, 1) + (2) + (1) + 24 = 31

Rend (Ex): 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (6) + 14 = 20

[ooc]since Paxz goes before me all my attacks get an extra+1 below is my extra attack[/occ]
1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 20 + 1 = 34
1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 1 = 10

Slumper attacks, dealing damage to the nearest devil-woman! Fort: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (14) + 17 = 31 The devil woman is staggered for a moment!

Thrak tears into the nearest Fury, his claws and bite getting through in some places, rebuffed in others!

Pai disappears, reappearing to the south near the shaft you came up in!

Ruperta is up!

NPCing Ruperta pulls back five feet, shrugging off the rope and fires her crossbow at the rear devil woman!
Crossbow: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (17) + 25 = 42 for 1d10 + 9 + 2d6 ⇒ (1) + 9 + (1, 2) = 13 damage!
Crossbow: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (13) + 20 = 33 for 1d10 + 9 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) + 9 + (4, 6) = 21 damage!

Round 2:
24 Corbyn
23 Furies
20 Pai and Paxs
18 Ruperta
5 Slumper

Corbyn is up!

Hmm, Ruperta hasn't posted in a while. Very unusual. Anyone heard anything?

Her player seems to be having a very busy time at work.

Corbyn attacks the Fury between Thrak and himself.

Attack 1: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (12) + 21 = 33
Damage: 1d6 + 6 + 2d6 ⇒ (6) + 6 + (6, 2) = 20

Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Sneak Attack: 7d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 4, 1, 3, 5, 6) = 22

Corbyn slashes at the flanked devil-woman, bringing her down in a splash of blood and gore. Serithiel seems to sing as it fights these evil beings.

Slumper smirks at the Furies as he dodges all of the attacks.

1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 20 + 1 = 24rapier
1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 1 = 11

DC 22 Fort save for half damage. If fail, target is exhausted for 14 minutes. If succeed, target takes half damage and is fatigued rather than exhausted.

Thrak continues his attack

Thrak 13 hp
Bite 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (11) + 21 = 32, 2d6 + 1d6 + 1d6 + 24 ⇒ (4, 6) + (2) + (1) + 24 = 37

Rend (Ex): 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17

Slumper slices and bashes, hitting the nearest devil!

Pai casts a spell of shattering upon one of the Furies. Fort: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (4) + 17 = 21 It screams as the sound of cracking bones echoes.

Thrak tears into the nearest devil-woman! With a rending sound of flesh, he tosses it aside and whacks the one beyond with his tail!

NPCingRuperta fires again!
Crossbow: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (8) + 25 = 33 for 1d10 + 9 + 2d6 ⇒ (6) + 9 + (2, 5) = 22 damage!

Serithiel sings as it sinks deeply into the body of the Fury, holy light burning the flesh of the devil as she falls, dead!

The last Fury hisses in anger and presses her attack on Thrak!
Power Attack with trident: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (11) + 21 = 32 for 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (7) + 24 = 31 plus 1d6 ⇒ 3 fire!

Power Attack with trident: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15 for 1d8 + 24 ⇒ (6) + 24 = 30 plus 1d6 ⇒ 3 fire!

As the Fury attacks, there is a sudden peal of devilish laughter, as the masked 'hero' Trifaccia appears behind Slumper, his blade flashing! "You poor fools don't know when to stop, do you? On the Queen's moment of exaltation, you might as well die here along with the 'good people' of Korvosa!"

Flaming Scimitar!: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (11) + 27 = 38 for 1d6 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13 plus 1d6 ⇒ 1 fire plus 2d6 ⇒ (6, 2) = 8 sneak attack on the first attack (vs flat-footed!)!

Flaming Scimitar Possible Crit: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (4) + 22 = 26 for 1d6 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

The heroes are up!

Pai delays to see if they can bring her down without any extra magical expenditures.

Pai, not sure if you noticed, but in addition to the last Fury, Trifaccia has showed up!

Oh lord, I did not notice at at all! Quick retcon, poor favor!

Little Pai snarls at the reappearance of the hero! She prepares a spell, and tries to crush the very wind out of his chest!

Cast Suffocation. On my phone, so I can't link the spell description. He needs a DC 23 Fort save in the first round or immediately begins to suffocate. If he makes it, he is staggered. Needs to save each round for three rounds or other, nastier things happen.

Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 14 = 15 Oh dicebot, you are a fickle, fickle mistress.

Behind his mask, Trifaccia begins to gag and choke!

Slumper, Paxs and Ruperta are up!

Slumper smiles as he thinks about his ring while looking at the flaming sword. ring of minor fire resistance! still took 52 dmg 123/175

Slumper spins around and tries to return the favor.

1d20 + 20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 20 + 1 + 2 = 38rapier of human bane
1d6 + 2d6 + 2 + 1 + 6 ⇒ (1) + (6, 5) + 2 + 1 + 6 = 21

1d6 + 2 + 1 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 1 + 6 = 11 crit confirm

If they hit the hero has a DC24 Fort save or staggered for 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 rounds If they make Fort saves it would just be 1 round

Slumper turns and strikes the 'hero' Trifaccia repeatedly as he gags and chokes. However he notices that the human-bane magic doesn't seem to work on the 'hero'.

Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34

Ruperta and Paxs!

Thrak disappears from the onslaught and Paxs summons celestial dire tigers to fight.

The celestial tiger makes quick work of the last Fury, as the others rip into the 'hero' Trifaccia. He gags and chokes, but falls beneath tooth and claw, his form shifting and changing in death from a human to a red-skinned efrit! After a moment his body begins to dissolve into smoke, leaving behind his gear! You find a +1 flaming scimitar, belt of mighty constitution +4, bracers of armor +4, ring of protection +2 and minor ring of cold resistance. Each of the 4 Furies leaves behind a +3 mithral shirt and a +2 flaming burst returning trident.

This floor goes quiet. It doesn't appear anyone else yet lives, but the room to the west reeks of blood. You peer inside...

This chamber smells of blood. The northern portion contains a large square basin, the rim of which is decorated with a convoluted bas-relief texture that resembles a jumble of snakes and slugs. A wooden platform to the southeast of the basin is cluttered with various alchemical supplies and surgical tools. Within the basin is a drop of three feet to the surface of a pool of what appears to be blood. A network of thin crystalline tubes extend out of the wall above the basin, pass through its rim, and emerge along the inner rim, each one protruding like a tiny spigot over the pool below. Something the size and shape of a human woman seems to be floating face-down in the center of the pool.

Good stuff! Before we advance, everyone say what they might want, if anything. Pai could use the ring of protection if the melee people all have at least one +2. If not, you all need to take it. Same for the belt of Con, but I'd rather one of you front liners grab it for more HP.

I'm wearing that exact belt and have a +2 ring. I can't wear bracers as it wouldn't stack with my shield already. So I'm good on all of it

i want a mithril shirt :), i could use the ring but it is all yours since the shirt helps me more than the ring, the minor ring may come in handy for a front liner too

Anyone want to check out the strange floating body of the woman or anything else in the room?

I was hoping Ruperta or Corbyn would check in. Since they haven't, Pai will take the belt of Con, give Paxs the ring of protection and the Mithras shirt, and pass the minor ring of cold resistance to Slumper. Please note those on your sheets.

Pai uses her invisibility field class school power to turn invisible again, and moves to take a look at the floating female body.

Perception 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (12) + 16 = 28

The body looks to be female, but it's missing its skin! Pai recognizes this as the later stages of a simulacrum being grown. It's not ready yet, but it will be within days.

"Is this the Queen building another body? It doesn't seem harmful right now, but we have to come back and destroy the body before we leave, or we will have yet another problem on our hands. Unless, someone wants to kill it now," Pai asks, wanting to see if the other want to do the gruesome duty now, rather than waiting.

Paxs lets the tigers shred the body.

The body is torn apart without resistance, which is an odd sight to see.

The only way is up. Are you ready?
