Curse of the Crimson Throne

Game Master Euan

Round 4, Init 4

Barael breathes more easily as the opposition scatters like... well, rats in the pantry, when the door is opened. Barael nods at Fondo, then the next room.

Barael closes his eyes briefly, and is lost to sight. Ki Point #2, Vanishing Trick(Invisibility) Moves to F-17
Acrobatics through sludge 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (5) + 18 = 23
Stealth 1d20 + 11 + 20 ⇒ (13) + 11 + 20 = 44

Barael raises his elbow, aiming the dagger at Girrigz's upper arm joint. You move even a little towards my crew, I'll introduce you to Imp Sticker. Hoping to trigger an AoO at the end of all of this.
Silver Dagger 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 6 + 1 = 21 for 1d4 + 2 + 1 + 2d6 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 1 + (3, 3) = 12 damage

Nikolay delays to see how thigs play out.

Round 4, Init 1

Dandi sighs and lets her hair down. The ends coil and curl reaching around her as if to stretch after their confinement.

activating 1 minute of prehensile hair

Round 5, Init 22 {>G15}

Fondo follows Barael into the room, tumbling past the remaining wererat lackey.

Acrobatics 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15

"Ah, it's you. Listen, man, we've no feud with you and yours. Let's sue for peace, before more folk get killed."

He readies an action to clock any threatening rat with his mace, should he be attacked. That includes the lackey if he should take an AoO.

Silvered mace 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 8 - 2 + 1 = 16 Power attack, bardic performance.
1d6 + 2 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 4 + 1 = 11

Majenko keeps the dance going (just in case) and also heals Barael. Charlie steps up, heals Barael and tries to reason with Girrigz. Barael turns invisible and rushes up to fight Girrigz. Dandilion extends her hair. Fondo closes and readies. Nikolay waits to see what will happen next. Briar moves deeper in the room and readies to fire on hostiles.

The remaining wererat flees (withdraw) down the tunnel to the south and does also not make an AoO. Girrigz seems to be a little blurry and hard to hit. 1d100 ⇒ 93. He snarls coming out of his trance and sniffs the air. "I can't see you boy, but I can smell you! I will not bow before human stench." He raises his silver rapier, swings, and misses - twice due to invisibility and once due to lame rolls.

Meanwhile the Otyugh comes to the entry and wraps his tendrils around your side of the tunnel, but does not yet advance into the very small (for an Otyugh) tunnel. He is clearly considering it though.

Girrigz rapier on Barael 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21 for 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Girrigz rapier on Barael 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20 for 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Girrigz bite on Barael 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10 for 1d6 ⇒ 2 and a DC 14 disease check

Map Round 5-6

My mistake - Barael does not get a swing off. I thought he had a readied attack, it was in fact a AoO. Which means I have miss chances to hit him as well. High is good for me. 1d100 ⇒ 201d100 ⇒ 32... so I miss three times. No one hit so far.

Round 6, Init 22 (>F16}

Fondo steps up to the fearsome wererat. "Peace needs no bowing, fool. But if fight you must, bow you will." Using his mace as a crude rake, he scrapes up some cinders fromt he fire and tries to throw them in the wererat's eyes, attempting to blind him temporarily. The arc of the mace sets his foe off-balance (both Aid Attack for Barael and flavor for Coordinated Maneuvers).

Dirty trick 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 10 + 1 + 2 = 19 bard, teamwork
1d100 ⇒ 51 high good
Aid attack 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 8 + 1 = 20 bard, teamwork
1d100 ⇒ 60 high good

Round 6, Init 21

Barael hears two wisps and a gnashing, and grows coldly determined to see this done quickly. Waiting for Fondo's visible flurries, Barael goes for the sword arm, while dropping the sap to keep an open palm. Let's ready a place to welcome that fine blade of yours, Girrigz.
Improved Disarm 1d20 + 8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 8 + 4 + 1 = 26
The Rat's Blurry!! 1d100 ⇒ 20 We want high numbers

If that fails to bring the blade to break from his grip, Barael goes for it a second time. Ki point #3
Improved Disarm 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 8 + 2 + 1 = 28
The Rat's Blurry!! 1d100 ⇒ 36 We want high numbers

Barael also attempts to bite Girrigz back, but lacking a bite attack, reconsiders.

By the way, I thought you'd all like to see a picture of the beast you face...

Girrigz

round 5 init 8

Charlie will ready an action. If the Otyugh begins to enter he will cast a ray of enfeeblement at it. Ranged Touch 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 3 + 1 = 23 Majenko's dance. Strength loss: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7 5 rounds, fort save DC:15

Round 6, Init 19 E9 --> G13

Nikolay moves down the stream of sludge again and tries to decide between Girrigz and the otyugh. Since the otyugh is slowly moving through the tunnel he decides to help with Girrigz for now. He continues towards him and then disappears as he casts vanish. I think he can get to G-14 with 30'

Round 6, Init 25

"Waif! Watch your back!" Briar says to the Waif who seems to be playing with her hair.

Briar double moves to G14, jumping over as much muck as he can...

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 Acrobatics to jump...

...fails to achieve much distance and ends up slopping slop all over the himself and those nearby.

Oops.

In G14, Briar takes a good gander at Girrigz...and quickly sees what the problem really is.

"Hey Girrigz, I can you're angry. You look constipated. We got a healer who can probably fix that. If the healer can't, we got this Waif who can probably brew something that'll blow you colon. Cuz man, you look like you're crowning and need a bit of help."

Briar smiles.

"Why don't you drop your sword? We'll get you a nice hunk of cheese if you'd like."

Round 5, Init 1

Dandi double moves through the sludge and into the other room, making it as far as she can into the other room. H16 or H17, depending on how you count each of the sludgy squares, I think.

Majenko continues to dance and flies to H12. Charlie prepares to cast ray of enfeeblement on the Otyugh crawling through the sludge - and does so. Dandilion move into the inner chamber. Fondo fails to blind Girrigz, but he does aid Barael to success at disarming. Barael delays and does his best to disarm his foe. On his second try, he succeeds! Nikolay also leaves Charlie to face the Otyugh alone. Briar moves into the inner chamber and taunts Girrigz with the promise of cheese.

Otyugh Fortitude 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 vs DC 15 or -7 strength for 5 rounds

Briar, jumping in the puddles as he goes, is able to get to his spot with a double move moving at half move through the sludge.

The sludge is not difficult terrain, but moving through it at full speed is a DC 12 acrobatics or fall due to the slipperiness of the gunk. You can move through it at half speed to avoid the roll. So Dandilion and Nikolay both needed rolls...

Dandilion Acrobatics 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13
Nikolay Acrobatics 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15

...and they both made it.

Girrigz becomes angry at the loss of his treasured blade. He draws a short sword from his belt (yes he has backup weapons, he has a dagger too for future reference) and bites at Barael. "I see you've brought friends. How nice. I'll just have to take you with me!" and he lunges…

Girrigz bite on Barael 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26 for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3, a DC 14 and a DC 15 both vs disease

The Otyugh, weakened (damn!) but no less hungry, charges at Charlie and gets out of the squeeze, but has no other actions. His tentacles extend out giving Charlie a loving caress in anticipation of the attacks to follow.

Acrobatics for the Otyugh 1d20 ⇒ 15
You would think that a sewer dwelling creature would do better against the sludge, but no - he can fall too! But does not... not yet.

--Round 6--
Girrigz - 18 draws weapon and attacks
Otyugh (1of5 -7str) - 18 closes with Charlie

Map Round 6-7

Nikolay looks back to see Charlie alone with the Otyugh.

I hope he makes it out of there so I don't have to go back for him.

Waiting to see what Charlie does.

Fort Save #1 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
Fort Save #2 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

Round 7, Init 22 {D17}

Fondo tosses aside his light mace, picks up the rapier in the adjacent square (provoking), and tumbles into flank with the wererat.

Acrobatics 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22

Round 7, Init 21

Barael tries his best to bring silver fang to bear against the wererat.
Silver Dagger 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 6 + 2 + 1 = 22 for 1d4 + 2 + 1 + 2d6 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 1 + (3, 5) = 14 damage

The blur, the fur, the fury, the frustration.

"Charlie NO!"

Almost without thinking, Dandi calls upon the nameless power that guides her, imagining a giant sticky web of Wraith's best. The words come unbidden in her mind, supplied by someone, something other than herself.

Silken essence of the night, gather and grow and hold it tight!

Dandi moves forward as far as she can to get a better line on where to place the spell web(DC 15, Ref negates, kind of).

She aims for above and behind the Otyugh, leaving Charlie free from it's sticky touch.

The Otyugh tries to resist the webbing...
Otyugh Reflex vs Web 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12 vs DC 15

...and fails! The Otyugh is trapped in the webbing (for now) and cannot make AoO's.

Girrigz sees Fondo reach for his blade and takes an AoO, then when Fondo moves into flank, he tries to take another, but Fondo is too dextrous for him.
Girrigz bite on Fondo 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28 for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7, a DC 14 and a DC 15 both vs disease

Fondo grimaces as the rat's buck teeth bite into him.

Fort 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
Fort 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25

Round 7, Init 25

Charlie: Hoping that you take your halfblooded self out of providing firing cover to the beast.

Briar takes aim and rapid shots the drooling, reaching beast with long wavy touchers and covered in webbing. No, not Dandi. The other one. Geez. You people.

1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 23 to hit; (PBS, Bard, Rapid)
1d8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 + 1 = 7 damage; (PBS, Bard)

1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 10 to hit; (PBS, Bard, Rapid)
1d8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 1 = 4 damage. (PBS, Bard)

Round 7, Init 19 --->D-16

Thankful for Dandilion's quick actions, Nikolay moves to help with the wererat. Still invisible, he moves up next to Fondo and the wererat and swings at him.

(+1/+1 from Majenko still?)
Invisibility is a +2 attack vs. defender's flat-footed AC (reminding myself)
Longsword Power Attack: 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 2 + 1 = 13
Longsword damage: 1d8 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 1 = 14
fire damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

round 6 init 8

Charlie will move to H13 and cast Sound Burst into H7. Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 4 Fort (16) or stunned for 1 round.

F*ckF*ckF*ck

Dandi, you are the best!

Majenko dances and considers what else to do. "Not too many rounds of this left you know." Charlie tries to stun the poor weakened/webbed Otyugh. Dandilion tries the stickier approach to pin down the Otyugh. Fondo grabs the very nice silver rapier and slides into flank. Barael swings well… but misses! Nikolay, amazingly, misses his target coming out of invisibility! Briar lines up a couple shots on the Otugh and connects once.

Otyugh Fortitude 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 vs DC 16 or be stunned 1 round

Girrigz shortsword on Barael 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27 for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Girrigz shortsword critical on Barael 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23 for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Girrigz shortsword on Barael 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8 for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Girrigz bite on Barael 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17 for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7, a DC 14 and a DC 15 both vs disease

Girrigz grips the short sword solidly, but not with nearly the suppleness of his rapier, but he swings none the less with murder in his eyes focusing on the foe in front of him before stepping to a spot with a bit more cover.

--Round 7--
Girrigz - 18 attacks Barael and crits!
Otyugh (-11hp, 2of5 -7str) - 18 stunned this round!
Majenko - 12

Map Round 7-8

Majenko flies to F16, continues to dance, and heals Barael a little.

Cure Light Wounds for 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Round 8, Init 22

Fondo nods at Majenko and begins to LOUDLY cant the Harrow (Inspire Courage).

"The plague that makes Korvosa bleed needs not
your hatred added. You and I and we
could Blood Veil end, if you but ceased your rage.
Surrender now. Give up your wroth. Or fall."

He then steps up to the wererat and catches his attention, drawing it away from Nikolay should he advance and attack.

Aid attack from Nikolay 1d20 + 7 - 4 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 7 - 4 - 2 + 1 = 11 fight defensively, CE, bard; not including any bonus from weapon

I'm not actually sure whether you can fight defensively and aid attack at the same time. If not, 3 less to AC.

Round 8, Init 19

Nikolay goes to G-17, assuming the fire is only in one square, and tries to attack the wererat again.

Longsword Power Attack: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 8 + 1 = 23 plus an aid?
Longsword damage: 1d8 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 1 = 12
Fire damage: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Round 8, Init 21

Barael tries to set flank for Nik, at E-17? trying to prevent Girrigz's possible retreat into the next room east. Move to G-19
Acrobatics to avoid AoO 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (14) + 18 = 32

He continues to harry the rat with his dagger, attacking the metal that seems to shimmer less than the fur on his arms.
Improved Disarm 1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 8 + 1 + 1 = 25
The Rat's Blurry! 1d100 ⇒ 55 We want high numbers

"Last chance, Girrigz. Stand down. My mate has metal that will make you regret pulling another weapon."

Round 8, Init 25

Briar smirks as the otyugh is held by dual majicks, web and sound.

Magic rocks.

Assume Halfblood really gets out of the way this time...

Briar will 5' step to H15 and will rapid shot again at the big ugly blob.

1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (19) + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 27 to hit; (PBS, Bard, Rapid Miss)
1d8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 + 1 = 7 damage;

1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 9 to hit;
1d8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 1 = 6 damage.

EDIT: confirm crit:

1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 20 to hit; (PBS, Bard, Rapid Miss)
1d8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 + 1 = 9 damage;
1d8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 + 1 = 8 damage; 7+8+9=24 damage. Legolas who?

"And we have a falcon, be here in just a moment... Briar!!! Rats don't like falcons very much. Talons, great heights, and such."

Improved critical from 4,,000gp bracers. Brzoken!

round 7 init 8 {H13-->H16}

Charlie will move to H16 and cast Sound Burst into H9. Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 5 Fort (16) or stunned for 1 round.

That worked pretty well. Let's see if it will again.

While Dandi pulls a potion from one of her many pockets, her hair whips out at Girrigz, intent on distracting him.

1d20 + 0 ⇒ (15) + 0 = 15 aid another to Barael's AC

Majenko flies over to Barael and heals him and stops his dancing (he had more, but Fondo starts his oratory and they don't stack). Charlie gets further out of the way of the Otyugh and tries to stun it again. Dandilion attacks Girrigz to aid Baraels armor. Fondo starts his oratory and fights to aid Nikolays to a hit! Barael takes away yet another weapon of the enemy. Nikolay, with Fondo's aid, strikes true though the smell of burning wererat makes you think twice about hitting him again. Briar criticals the poor Otyugh and drops it!

The poor Otyugh, motivated only by a little food in his belly, dies at the hands of the cruel party of murderers. I'm leaving him on the map for now. He's large enough that he's difficult terrain in the event anything travels that way. He's also stopping up the sewage which will be a problem in a few hours as it'll start to fill up this cave.

Girrigz bite on Barael 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30 for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6, a DC 14 and a DC 15 both vs disease

Girrigz angrily watches his short sword clatter to the ground and draws his last remaining weapon - a dagger. Well not counting his teeth, which he uses to attack Barael one more time and hits even with the hair in his mouth and eyes. Then he shifts into a nook in the wall (not squeezing).

Nikolay miss chance 1d100 ⇒ 80 low is good for me...

--Round 8--
Girrigz (-15hp) - 18 attacks Barael and draws a dagger

Round 9, Init 22 >F18

"YOUR KIN ARE FREE TO LEAVE, IF PEACE THEY SEEK,
BUT YOU, BLIND FOOL, SHALL EVER THIS DAY RUE."

Fondo steps in and attempts to thrust his new rapier deep into the wererat's innards.

Rapier 1d20 + 8 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 8 + 1 - 2 = 16

Failing that, he tries to catch the fink's dagger hand in his back swing, opening him up for Nikolay's slash.

Aid attack 1d20 + 8 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 1 - 2 = 13 1d100 ⇒ 92

Low is bad for me, judging from DM Euan's pattern.

Round 9, Init 21

Barael grunts from the bite, and sighs when he sees the last weapon find its way to the biter's grip. He subsequently retches from the filth and the burning hair.
Fort Save, DC 14 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Fort Save, DC 15 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Barael lurches forward, pressing pommel to his opponent's chest.
Silver Dagger 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 1 = 14

"Guys, I don't feel so well."

Barael leans back, and takes a 5' step away from his foe, by squeezing through the narrow gap. Move to G-20

Barael cannot 5' step into a squeezing square.

Oh, and Mwwahahahahaha.

Round 9, Init 19

With newfound faith in his sword's abilities, Nikolay tries more for accuracy then power as he steps to G18.

Longsword: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 9 + 1 = 21 +2 aid?

Barael stays put then. He's corking that squeeze point.

Round 9, Init 25

Posting, hoping Charlie and Dandi (and Majenko) stay out of my line of fire. The happens ahead of both Fondo and Nikolay.

Briar spins after finishing off the Otyugh to look at Girrigz.

"Come on, lay down the dagger. We'll get you some cheese."

These Korvosans never listen to reason.

Shrugging, Briar draws a pair of silver arrows and lets loose.

1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 8 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 25 to hit; (PBS, Bard, Rapid Miss)

Charlie will cast Shield of Faith on himself and try to stop shaking.

Round 8, Init 1

"Get him, Nikki, before he hurts Barrie again!" High and shrill, Dandi's voice cuts through the din of the fight.

unfortunately, the swordsman is too tall, and her aim goes wide, her hair flailing about harmlessly instead.

Dandi five foot steps behind Nikolay, her hair whipping out to aid his attack.

Majenko flaps to Fondo and heals him for 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4. Charlie heals himself as well. Dandilion . Fondo aids Nikolays swing, but misses his own. Barael misses and considers leaving, but does not. Nikolay, even with the +2 aid also cannot connect! Briar thought he had his shot, but the blurry opponent ruins it and his second shot goes wide.

Sensing his mortality, Girrigz presses his attack on Barael hoping to take at least one of you with him to the grave. A madness creeps into his already crazy eyes. Sadly, his madness only results in a slight nicking of Barael with the dagger.

Barael tries to answer Girrigz, dagger for dagger. Barael feels heat, and tries to place it. He shakes it off, and remembers that he should do something with the dagger in his hand.

1d100 ⇒ 12

What majicks affect his one, I wonder?

1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12 Know (Arcana)
1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19 Know (Arcana)

Magic protects me.

1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20 Perception
