Crown of the Kobold King (Inactive)

Game Master Seldlon the Swift

Rhen does have SA with the move, but he misses as does Bulgard.

The hellhound looks at Rhen and Zevon. It opens its mouth and you see a fireball. Oh no, it becomes a cone of fire.

Rhen takes no damage thanks to the ring. Zevon takes 6 HP from fire.

Cirthana sheaths her longsword and punches the hellhound with her gauntlet.

She takes 5.

Reinar swings once again.

Concealment?: 1d100 ⇒ 12
Damage?: 1d8 + 4 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 2 + 1 = 9

Concealment denies Reinar his prize.

Zevon rolls around the stone pillar to avoid the hound's breath. He plies his whip to aid Reinar's attack.

Aid another: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

Ah, I forgot you have a reflex save for 1/2, Zevon. Glad you worded it that way. Reflex DC 14 gets you 3 HP.

Rhen stabs in the pups back. "did yer master beat ya pup?"

Thigh slice: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 2 = 281d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 31d6 ⇒ 6
Confirm: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 211d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

I have the pressure spots talent, so I am doing 1 point of str dmg with the sneak attack.

I'll let you have SA since it was a crit and the other rolls were low and I am the one who backed Cirthana up for no good reason.

Rhen does 11 damage to the hellhound. It falls.

End initiative.

Reflex save for Zevon
reflex v 14: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Zevon 14/20, Reinar 20/28 Rhen 20/21 Bulgard 18/24 Cirthana 17/20

You hear the roar of a forge. You also hear a hammer striking steel with a perfected rhythm.

Cirthana lifts the visor. "Not much of a watch dog. I suspect the owner may not be so weak. I know the child is our priority, but I want to send this abomination back to Droskar. Perhaps one of you stealthy men could take a peek and report back to us. I have many battle preparations to perform for us before we engage."

"With some support I'm sure I can crush that thing."

Zevon taps into Cirthana's blessing and creeps forward down the tunnel.

Stealth: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 7 + 1 = 21

As Zevon moves further into the dark smoke he gets to the foundry.

A loud crackling sound fills the room. The smoke that pours from it is blistering hot and lit with a strange orange light. A massive forge responsible for the hellish atmosphere takes up the entire far wall of the cavern. Between the forge and the entrance stands a massive anvil, and nearby rest hammers, prongs, and other blacksmithing tools. A faint whimpering sound is almost lost in the roar that comes from the forge. An undead monstrosity left here by Droskar’s wrath has kept the fire in his foundry burning for centuries. The smoke is even thicker here, making it difficult to see anything beyond 5 feet. All creatures in the room have concealment.

Jurin Kreed, the young scion of Falcon Hollow’s most powerful family, is sequestered here by an evil undead dwarf called a forge spurned. The forge spurned is hard at work at the anvil beating a new link for its soul-forged chain. When the link is complete the creature plans to suck Jurin’s soul into it, adding the boy to his gruesome menagerie. Jurin is staggered from smoke inhalation and barely alive. In other words, HP 0

Bulgard nods to Rhen and whispers
Well done, m-master dwarf!

Then attempts to hide himself as he moves under cover.

stealth: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28

Cirthana looks at Reinar and Rhen. The smoke has smudged itself on their hands and faces. She pulls a braid of her hair for inspection. "Oh, I will need a bath after this. And my hair. Good thing I can cast create water."

"We be needin' ta get the lad out fast."

Stealth to sneak in: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

With the others gone Cirthana motions Reinar to move forward. "We will make noise, but we can move slowly."
stealth: 1d20 - 7 ⇒ (20) - 7 = 13

You find yourselves just outside the foundry. It is well described above.

Cirthana prepares for another battle. She goes to everyone and touches them, imbuing them with divine guidance. She casts protection from evil on Reinar and then divine favor as well. "I would hate to see you spend eternity as another link in that chain." She casts protection from evil on herself as well as guidance. "Are you going to make use of that wand, Zevon Vierding or should I use mine. We will go in prepared."

Protection from evil, For two minutes the subject gains a +2 deflection bonus to AC and a +2 resistance bonus on saves. Both these bonuses apply against attacks made or effects created by evil creatures.

Guidance. This spell imbues the subject with a touch of divine guidance for 1 minute or until expended. The creature gets a +1 competence bonus on a single attack roll, saving throw, or skill check. It must choose to use the bonus before making the roll to which it applies.

Divine Favor Duration 1 minute. Calling upon the strength and wisdom of a deity, you gain a +1 luck bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls for every three caster levels you have (at least +1, maximum +3).

The forge spurned is hard at work and concentrating on the link it is making. You have a surprise round. One move or one standard action.

Surprise Round
Bulgard, Cirthana, Reinar, Rhen, Zevon <--------------

Create water? Enough to quench that forge? I will put mine to use, I feel we will need your steel more than my whip. Now strike true friends, the child's life hangs in the balance!

Inspire courage. Only two rounds of this left so make them count!

Zevon 14/20, Reinar 20/28 Rhen 20/21 Bulgard 18/24 Cirthana 17/20

"Thank you, Lady Cirthana, now I'll crush him!", Reinar will drop his shield and wield his battleaxe two-handed before shouting a loud battlecry and charging at the forge spurned.

Reinar will rage!

Cirthana follows Reinar's lead and gets into position.

Not clear on where we are in the round. Zevon used his surprise action to start Inspire Courage. Are we back in the regular count now?

Surprise Round
Reinar, Cirthana, Zevon
Rhen, Bulgard <------------

Reinar and Cirthana get a better look at the forge spurned.

The choking odor of smelted steel tinged with burnt hair and flesh wafts on a foul wind. The jangling of heavy chains echoes ominously. A hulking dwarf wrapped in heavy steel links. Its face, hands, and body are riddled with glowing hot hooks and half-melted razor wire. Black smoke rises from its smoldering beard, framing its freakishly contorted face in ashy darkness. The tormented thing hefts a black adamantine hammer and the chains draping its form spring to life like metal serpents.

Bulgard gets into position and fires two arrows.

Fear not, we will see you out of this hell. For now, duck protect your head. On my word, you flee down the tunnel.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

"Hugh, wha.."
As Jurin opens his eyes, he looks around in fright.

Rhen will keep himself in between the evil dwarf and the child.

"Run like Zevon said lad."
