DM-Camris' WRATH of the RIGHTEOUS Part 1: The Worldwound Gambit (table 3) (Inactive)

Game Master Camris

Thetin scowls as the Vermleck escapes but quickly focuses his attention on the remaining opponent. He quickly runs up and joins his comrades in attacking the enemy.

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Round 4_____

Kelden Sunblade_____
He dropped the wand and drew his scimitar brining the blade to bear against his opponent.
They are a Demon called a Vermlek. They burrow into Dead bodies! He called out as he swung.

Kyra Greenstar_____
She slips beneath the scythe for a riposte strike, but her ineffective parry throws her own attack off. "Thetin, hurry! I do not know how much longer I can hold off this thing!" She maintains her position flanking with Kelden to leave an opening for Thetin and Carilain!
Free Action - Maintain Battle Dance. Swift Action - Arcane Strike. Standard Action - Attack and miss. -1 BP. She swung and missed.

Carilain Riveroak_____
Carilain moves in to attack the remaining husk. (Move to E-4) He looks for an opening, then attacks with the eager Grimstar. The fact that Vermlek are demon-spawn is not lost on the sentient weapon.
He hit for moderate damage!

Thetin Dorvas_____
Thetin scowls as the Vermleck escapes but quickly focuses his attention on the remaining opponent. He quickly runs up and joins his comrades in attacking the enemy.

He swung, but the verminous flesh of the creature fended off his blow.

(npc) Alessie_____
Alessie shot at V1, but the arrow just stuck in its flesh uselessly.

Enemies__________
V1_____
V1 adopts a defensive stance, then channels negative energy to heal itself and its buddies. Its wounds heal quite a bit.
V3_____
A horribly bloated husk of a dead paladin of Iomedae stood up out of a shallow grave. It channels negative energy to heal itself and its buddies. V1 wounds heal all the way up now.

Round 5_____

Players take their turn in order of posting. Enemies will go last.

TACTICAL SITUATION

"Do they freeze?" Carilain asks as he strikes at the demonic foe.

Grimstar: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

Kyra nearly screams with frustration as the demons heal themselves almost completely. "Surround it and bring it down! We must concentrate on them one at a time!" With that advice, Kyra spins around the vermlek into a flanking position with Carilain to allow Thetin a better position as well! She tries to attack as she glides around the demon, but her foot slips on an errant piece of rubble and her blade soars well over the demon's head...

Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 2 + 2 = 11

Free Action - Maintain Battle Dance (-1 BP). Swift - Arcane Strike. Free Action - 5' step into C2 to allow Thetin to move into her old position to flank with Kelden. Standard - Attack and miss....

At this rate we are never going to take these things down...

He struck at the monster again, calling out as his did so. His slash was high and wide He stepped across from Thetin to make sure he was close to Kyra, the creature had obviously taken a liking to trying to destroy her.

Weapons of cold iron or the forces of good are twice are very effective against them! Keep pressing!

more next round! they have DR5 cold iron/good
So when the first creature went down, I assume its scythe was left on the body?

attack roll: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 2 = 12
damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Round 5_____

Carilain Riveroak_____
"Do they freeze?" Carilain asks as he strikes at the demonic foe.
But Grimstar missed wildly.

Kyra Greenstar_____
"Surround it and bring it down! We must concentrate on them one at a time!" With that advice, Kyra spins around the vermlek into a flanking position with Carilain to allow Thetin a better position as well! She tries to attack as she glides around the demon, but her foot slips on an errant piece of rubble and her blade soars well over the demon's head...

Kelden Sunblade_____
He struck at the monster again, calling out as his did so. His slash was high and wide.
He stepped across from Thetin to make sure he was close to Kyra, the creature had obviously taken a liking to trying to destroy her.
more next round! they have DR5 cold iron/good
So when the first creature went down, I assume its scythe was left on the body?
That is correct. The new body has its own scythe.

(npc) Thetin Dorvas_____
He lashed out with Radiance, but missed.

(npc) Alessie_____
Alessie shot at V1, but again the arrow just stuck in its flesh uselessly.

Enemies__________

V1_____
The creature ran his tongue around his lips. ”You need a bit more red…” It said as he followed Kyra around and struck at her again.
Scythe attack vs Kyra: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19 for a possible 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (3, 2) + 6 = 11 slashing damage.
V3_____
The bloated creature threw its hands up and screamed to the sky. Several purplish summoning portals shiver into view.

Round 6_____

Players take their turn in order of posting. Enemies will go last.

TACTICAL SITUATION

They has some resistance to the cold but yes they can freeze.
channel: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 6) = 12
If you must pull back for a moment sister.

Kelden began channeling a burst of holy energy to aid her in her struggles. If they didnt down at least one of these monstrosities soon they would have no recourse but to pull back and perhaps flee trying again with perhaps more forces. He was afraid they were just overmatched. He should prepared better!

Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 6 + 2 + 2 = 27 About freaking time!!!!!!!!!
Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Kyra bites her lip against the pain as the demon slashes her open yet again. She sighs as Kelden's healing magic washes over her and takes the opportunity to riposte against the damnable demon! "Die, spawn of Hell!"

Free Action - Maintain Battle Dance (-1 BP). Swift Action - Arcane Strike. Standard Action - Attack. Please let us kill this damn thing before we are overrun...

Carilain speaks the draconic words that call on the chill powers of necromancy. But fails.

Concentration: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14

Thetin continues to swing into the enemy in front of him.
attack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 6 + 2 = 23
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Round 6_____

Kelden Sunblade_____
channel: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 6) = 12
Kelden began channeling a burst of holy energy to aid her in her struggles.

Kyra Greenstar_____
Kyra finally managed to land a blow, and her cold iron weapon slid smoothly through the undead flesh.
Free Action - Maintain Battle Dance (-1 BP). Swift Action - Arcane Strike. Standard Action - Attack.

Carilain Riveroak_____
Carilain speaks the draconic words that call on the chill powers of necromancy. But fails.

Thetin Dorvas_____
Thetin continues to swing into the enemy in front of him.
And Radiance easily smacked into the undead flesh.

(npc)Alessie_____
Alessie shot at V3, but the arrow simply hung up in the undead flesh.

Enemies_____
The summoning portals opened up and deposited 1d4 ⇒ 4 Dretches onto the battlefield. Looking like miniature versions of the big guys guarding the doors, they moved immediately to attack.

D1 moved to flank attack Thetin.
Claw 1: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 4 + 2 = 17 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 damage.

Bite: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 4 + 2 = 24 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 damage.

D4 moved to flank attack Carilain.
Claw 1: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 2 = 13 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 damage.
Claw 2: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 2 = 13 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 damage.
Bite: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 2 = 9 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 damage.

V1 took a 5 foot step back and turned abruptly towards Kelden.
Scythe attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23 for a possible 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (3, 3) + 6 = 12 slashing damage.
V3 rumbled up to Carilain and attacked with his new scythe.
"Shoulda come easy. Now yer goin down hard and long." He licked his lips suggestively.
Scythe attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21 for a possible 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (4, 3) + 6 = 13 slashing damage.

Round 7_____

Players take their turn in order of posting. Enemies will go last.

TACTICAL SITUATION

I'd love it if these jerks would actually roll below a 10 for once.... And me roll above a 10... This die roller utterly despises this group for whatever reason...

Kyra moves into position to attack one of the newly appeared dretches, hoping to lower the number of enemies they are fighting. Unfortunately her bloody wounds keep her from connecting with the lesser demon.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 2 = 11

-1 BP... 5' step into D3, Attack and Miss.

would the dretches count as summoned creatures for like the nature of a protection from evil spell? stepping back to b2 i think?

The blow from the monsters scythe caused him to step back as well, these foes fought with the unnatural force of true evil. His mind for a moment almost froze up then he felt the kiss of Sarenae and he closed his eyes for a brief second calling up her goodness and glory. He reached over and touched sister Kyra, a shield of shimmery protection covered her.

+2 bonus deflection to ac, =2 bonus to saves, spell prevents bodily contact from summoned evil outsiders(not weapons so those scythes still a problem)

Thetin grins as the blows land fruitlessly on his armor and shields. He then takes a five foot step to his left and uses a lay on hands to activate shared defense. All allies adjacent to me recieve a +1 to AC, CMD and saving throws for the next 3 (cha modifier) rounds.

Carilain draws on Grimstar's arcane power to hone the swords edge to maximum sharpness. Surrounded, the only way out is to cut.

Grimstar: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 Attacking V3

damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Activated Grimstar's arcane pool(1/day).

Round 7_____

Kyra Greenstar_____
Kyra moves into position to attack one of the newly appeared dretches, hoping to lower the number of enemies they are fighting. Unfortunately her bloody wounds keep her from connecting with the lesser demon.
She missed. -1 BP... 5' step into D3, Attack and Miss.

Kelden Sunblade_____
would the dretches count as summoned creatures for like the nature of a protection from evil spell? stepping back to b2 i think?
They would! If they were anywhere other than the Worldwound. Which is where you are now… *mad DM cackle*
He reached over and touched sister Kyra, a shield of shimmery protection covered her.
+2 bonus deflection to ac, =2 bonus to saves, spell prevents bodily contact from summoned evil outsiders(not weapons so those scythes still a problem)
The bonus to deflection AC and saves is still good, but the protection against contact by summoned creatures is no good against the demons in this case…

Thetin Dorvas_____
Thetin grins as the blows land fruitlessly on his armor and shields. He then takes a five foot step to his left and uses a lay on hands to activate shared defense. All allies adjacent to me recieve a +1 to AC, CMD and saving throws for the next 3 (cha modifier) rounds.

Carilain Riveroak_____
Carilain draws on Grimstar's arcane power to hone the swords edge to maximum sharpness. Surrounded, the only way out is to cut.
And Grimstar sank gratifyingly deep in the fat flesh of the creature. It squalled in surprise and anger.
Activated Grimstar's arcane pool(1/day).

(npc) Alesie_____
Alesie switched targets to D4 and actually managed to sink an arrow into its pasty flesh.

Enemies_________
D1 attacked Thetin.
Claw 1: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 damage.
Claw 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 damage.
Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 damage.

D2 flank attacked Carilain.
Claw 1: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 4 + 2 = 26 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 damage.
...Crit confirm?: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 4 + 2 = 21 for a possible extra 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 damage.
Claw 2: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 4 + 2 = 25 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 damage.
Bite: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 4 + 2 = 18 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 damage.

D3 turned to attack Kyra.
Claw 1: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 damage.
Claw 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 damage.
Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 damage.

D4 squawked at being hit by Alesie. It turned and charged her.
V3 bellowed ”No you little idiot! Get the Paladin! Get the Radiance wielder!” He is practically foaming with rage.
D4 is eligible for a movment AoO from Carilain.
D4 tackles Alesie behind the ruined wall, and you can see the purplish flash of a Summoning Portal, then nothing.

V1 continued to work on Kelden.
Scythe attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17 for a possible 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (1, 1) + 6 = 8 slashing damage.

V3, fuming at the disobedience, stepped to one side to flank attack Carilain.
Scythe attack: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 10 + 2 = 28 for a possible 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (4, 1) + 6 = 11 slashing damage.

Round 8_____

Players take their turn in order of posting. Enemies will go last.

TACTICAL SITUATION

Still backpedeling away from the scythewielding Vermlak The young cleric again called to his goddess for aid, this time literally chanting the magic and touching sister Kyra.

aid: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

+1 to attack (morale bonus) and +5 temporary hitpoints 5-foot step to D2

Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 9 Of course I would roll a '1' now that I finally connect lol.

Kyra maintains her dance and cuts towards the nearby dretch, hoping to thin out the number of enemies they are facing...

-1 BP. Free - Maintain Battle Dance. Swift - Arcane Strike. Standard - Attack.

Thetin takes a five foot and attempts to convince his enemies to attack him while swinging at V3. "Are you weaklings even trying to hurt me. I'll be more than happy to tear you apart without a fight?" Using diplomacy to try to convince them to attack Thetin

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Kyra Greenstar_____
Kyra maintains her dance and cuts towards the nearby dretch, hoping to thin out the number of enemies they are facing...
She powered a slash through to the Dretch, but only a shallow wound. Even so, ichor sprayed from the wound and the thing squalled in sudden fear.
-1 BP. Free - Maintain Battle Dance. Swift - Arcane Strike. Standard - Attack.

Thetin Dorvas_____
Thetin takes a five foot and attempts to convince his enemies to attack him while swinging at V3. "Are you weaklings even trying to hurt me. I'll be more than happy to tear you apart without a fight?"
Using diplomacy to try to convince them to attack Thetin
Even though his attack was comically mishandled, his taunting drove home, and many of the demonish swarmed forward to attack him.

Enemies_________
D1 attacked Thetin.
Claw 1: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 damage.
Claw 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14 for a possible 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 damage.

V3, infuriated at Thetin’s taunting, stepped up to attack him.
Scythe attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 for a possible 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (1, 4) + 6 = 11 slashing damage.

Round 9_____

Players take their turn in order of posting. Enemies will go last.

TACTICAL SITUATION

Caralain! No! He growled channeling a flash of the Dawnflowers holy energies through the air.

channel positive energy for healing: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 4) = 10

Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 6 + 2 + 1 = 18
Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 2 + 1 = 10

Kyra grunts at the continued assault by the demons, trying desperately to fend off their attacks but not succeeding. Her initial thought was to fall back and try to change her tactics, but as Sarenrae's healing powers flowed into her through Kelden she changes her mind and presses the attack once more! Her goddess' fury is evident as her blade suddenly cuts through the air towards the vermlek before her.

Free - Maintain BD (-1BP). Swift - Arcane Strike. Standard - Attack. Also, how much damage has V1 taken now? I believe this will make 22 damage that Kyra alone has dealt to it.. In addition to damage that Thetin dealt to it as well, I believe. This thing should be close to dead...

*EDIT*

Ugh. I forgot these guys aren't the standard vermlek... That last attack won't hit, Carilain missed earlier on a 19... I'll focus on thinning out the dretches and then I guess just try to assist Thetin with his attacks by setting up a flank and Aid Another. He seems to be hitting more often and for a lot more damage per attack. How is it that these vermlek have such a higher AC than their Bestiary companions anyway? lol

Kankai was angry. Not the simple angry of loosing one's temper over some insult or slight that would eventually boil over. It was a deep, beak snapping, feather ruffling anger that made you want to slice a person into many many pieces.

Kankai took a deep breath even as she calmly and smoothly ran towards the the sound of battle. Her anger would be dealt with when the time was right.

'No use loosing your head now. You will get the one who betrayed your unit. He will pay for his disloyalty.'

In the demon infested country loyalty was a fleeting thing but something prized.

The fighting brought her attention back as she neared. Her eyes scanned the situation and she moved quickly not giving her opponent a chance to realize she was there. Pauses in a fight could kill you when you came upon them. Her stride never broke as she took the second to assess the situation and make a snap decision.

Charging forward her blade left its sheath from her side and she swung in an upwards arc across his back. The blade to cut deep into his back hopefully.

Move to F4 with charge

Elven Blade atk w/ Flank: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 5 + 2 + 2 = 19
Dmg: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Sneak Attack: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 5) = 6

Now to those who saw her come in, Kankai is a tengu....that is completely white. While some of her feathers are covered in the armor she is wearing, more of them are covered in the ichor of other creatures. Its clear the armor wasn't meant for her frame but it still fit. Most of what she had looked like things she had scavenged as she fought.

One thing was clear, she didn't like what ever was attacking them and right now that made her their ally.

She spoke in celestial for two reasons. One, the purity of the language always calmed her in a fight but also it just seemed to piss off demon's to no end.

As the healing wave washes over him, Carilain is brought painfully back to consciousness. The scythe wound hurts furiously. The magus retrieves his sword and climbs to his feet.
Unless Grimstar is conveniently close, that is two move actions, and two AoOs. :(

Strangely, Grimstar's hilt is almost under Carilain's hand when he recovers consciousness. No AoO for that.
So that's one move action. What do you do with your standard action?

Attack V3 or D3 whichever I can reach. (In order of preference.) I thought about casting color spray, but I have a feeling it wouldn't do much. great spell for lower levels though.

Grimstar: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Cough. Nevermind...

Thetin sneers, deftly blocking V3's scythe with his tower shield as the the dretches claw at his armor. "ooh you almost got me with that one. I'm sooo scared." Thetin says mockingly as he gives V3 a good smack to the head with radiance.

attack: 1d20 + 2 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 2 + 6 = 26
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Round 9_____

Kelden Sunblade______
Caralain! No! He growled channeling a flash of the Dawnflowers holy energies through the air.
channel positive energy for healing: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 4) = 10

Kyra Greenstar_____
Her initial thought was to fall back and try to change her tactics, but as Sarenrae's healing powers flowed into her through Kelden she changes her mind and presses the attack once more! Her goddess' fury is evident as her blade suddenly cuts through the air towards the vermlek before her.
Kyra Missed.
Free - Maintain BD (-1BP). Swift - Arcane Strike. Standard - Attack.
Also, how much damage has V1 taken now?
It’s looking fairly injured now.
How is it that these vermlek have such a higher AC than their Bestiary companions anyway? Lol
A template.

Kankai the White_____
Move to F4 with charge
The new guy sank his elven blade into the dead flesh of the demon, but didn’t seem to hit anything vital.

Carilain Riveroak_____
As the healing wave washes over him, Carilain is brought painfully back to consciousness. The scythe wound hurts furiously. The magus retrieves his sword and climbs to his feet.
AoO from D3: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13 Miss.
AoO from V3: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17 Miss.
Carilain attacked with Grimstar but missed.

Thetin Dorvas_____
Thetin sneers, deftly blocking V3's scythe with his tower shield as the the dretches claw at his armor. "ooh you almost got me with that one. I'm sooo scared." Thetin says mockingly as he gives V3 a good smack to the head with radiance.
Radiance somehow connects and Damages the dead flesh; the thing makes a squalling sound of hate.

Round 10__________

Players take their turn in order of posting. Enemies will go last.

TACTICAL SITUATION

Thanks for clarifying that, Camris. I apologize for the irritating sounding post, that was my frustrations from work carrying over. The good news... this is the first time Kyra hasn't been hit this combat! :)

HP 18/27

Kankai sees red and her blade comes down wildly towards the dretch(D2). Only after the swing did she take a breath. 'Calm yourself Kankai, mistakes like this will cost you your life. Take time aim for the weak spot and strike.
