GM Fez's Hell' Rebels (Inactive)

Game Master Nathan Hartshorn

Stealth: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 4 + 2 = 23 Following closely behind Oren.

I'll cast Guidance on her and Val if I have time!

Bluff: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
"Let's see how you like this one!"

Waiting for Morricone and Valrani to roll stealth

Valrani tries to be as quiet as she can...

stealth,guidance: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

Her lawyer training is not especially well prepared her for this. However whether it is some other force or just dumb luck, she is remarkably quiet. Perhaps it is the memory of the wounds from the flaming flying leader of the Gills..

Stealth: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12
Morricone does his best to remain stealthy.. but alas he is more used to be loud then silent.

Don't forget we have a distraction team going and almost complete cover. Those are bonuses for us. Think positive...and quiet! =) NOTE: I updated our positions on the map where I think each of us might be. The four of us are down below and ready to charge across and hit the climb up ASAP to join Kurglunn.

Perception check: 1d20 + 1 - 8 ⇒ (19) + 1 - 8 = 12

"Seriously... stop delaying the inevitable. You know you are outmatched. Just come out and die like the filthy worms you are!" shouts back Scarplume, apaprently unaware of what's transpiring beneath her wings.

Thanks to Talon and Rocco's successful distraction the flying menace fails to notice the rest of the group's well timed advance among the ruined buildings. Soon everyone rushes to the church's basement and discovers the ladder leading to the rooftop...

Your move. If combat starts again we'll use the previous initiative order

Round 7 - Bold may post

Talon 10hp
Lirotha 14hp
Oren 21hp
Rocco 15hp

Red Gill (Rogue - Black)
Red Gill (Rogue - Blue)
Red Gill (Rogue - Fuchsia) -6hp
Red Gill (Rogue - Yellow)
Scarplume

Kurglunn 17hp
Morricone 16hp
Valrani 12hp

Valrani brings forth the power of nature, to both heal her body, but also reinforce her staff.

CLW: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
And then casts Shillelagh

Then, with preparations done, she quickly climbs the ladder.

Casting Guidance on Morricone then climbing the ladder after everyone else does. Once we are all in place, then we signal Kurglunn to charge out and we plan to follow him. Melee people focus on the bowmen, ranged to focus on Scarplume. Once engaged, Talon and Rocco and join in!

Talon has his pistol loaded and waits with baited breath for the carnage to ensue. He turns to Rocco. "Any second now...you ready?"

Oren also scurries up the ladder, ready for the battle to begin in earnest.

Unless Morri and Rocco have something to say different, I think we're ready to do this! GM?

Kurglunn turns around in shock and nearly screams as most of the Silver Ravens rush up the ladder behind him. He feels Rocco's reassurance that everything is alright almost right away, however, and gets ready to push through the wall and launch the attack.

Ready to go!

Then Talon, Lirotha, Oren and Rocco may act. As I wrote above you restart the fight using the previous initiative order

Oren will head up to the roof as well, ready to get up close and personal with the Red Gills.

Will it take a double move to get to the roof, DM?[

I think we're just outside the door in the little room on the roof with the enemy. Just step out and attack...or whatever.

Leading the way for some reason, Lirotha draws her starknife then opens the door quickly and moves to create space for everyone to exit onto the roof quickly!

Reaching the far group she points her free hand and chants, unleashing her most powerful attack spell in a blaze of fire!

Burning Hands Fire Damage in 15ft Cone: 2d4 ⇒ (3, 3) = 6

Consider the turn starting from the moment you kick the door open

Holding my turn for the moment. Wanna see what Rocco does first since I can only fire every second round.

Oren moves to engage yellow enemy, attempting a Thrust kick to the baddie's face.

Attack with Mutagen 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 6 + 2 = 20

Damage 1d6 + 3 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 + 2 = 9

Rocco and Talon are up

Rocco hears the din of the others launching their attack. He drops back from the opening to try to get a view of the opposing gang and casts a spell to stir the deepest fears of the blue rogue.
5ft step. Cast Cause Fear on blue. DC15 Will save. Failure means the target is frightened for 1d4 ⇒ 2 rounds. Success and he's shaken for 1 round.

Talon breathes "Here goes nuthin."

and takes a step out into the open and takes a shot at Scarplume hoping he can do something to bring her falling to the ground below.

Another loud crack rents the air.

Attack (Touch AC if within 20ft): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 Ugh facepalm

Perception check: 1d20 + 1 - 10 ⇒ (9) + 1 - 10 = 0

LOL. Ok, they are flat footed but this is NOT a surprise round (otherwise you could only take ONE action

Scarplume and her goons were still waiting for their enemies to come out of the orphanage and get slaughtered by their massed firepower. Little did they know the Silver Ravens had split their group in 2 and the bulk of their forces has sneaked out of the building and gained access to the church's rooftop!
As the door leading to the ruined church's basement was flung open their realized their mistake. Unfortunately for them it was too late and they paid dearly for their cockiness!

Oren jumped on one of the rogues and broke his nose with a savage headbut! causing hims to almost fall on the ground.

Lirotha confidently moved near Scarplume and 2 of her goons unleashing fire upon them!

Reflex Save (Scarplume): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Reflex Save (Black): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Reflex Save (Blue): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

They were mostly singed by the flames. Not so Scarplume, who looked like she had suffered no damage from the fiery element!

Talon followed suit taking aim, shooting and wounding the flying menace...

And Rocco tried to get another rogue to run away using his mind magic...

Will Save (blue): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

... Suceeding admirably at this!

Lirotha gets an AoO against blue, using her bare hands unless she has her starknife out

Enraged, scarplume took off before coming back down sending flames back at Lirotha, shouthing:"How dare you, little worm! I'll cook you alive for this!"

Ranged touch attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22 -> Damage roll: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Realizing his precarious position the rogue wearing a yellow cape threw his crossbow away and tried to stab Oren. His companion in an extravagant fuchsia sash tried the same move as well.

Attack roll (yellow vs Oren): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 -> Damage roll: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Attack roll (fuchsia vs Oren): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19 -> Damage roll: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Yet both attacks failed to connect with the nible tian woman.

The rougue in the black cape decided to target Lirotha with his crossbow following Scarplume's example

Attack roll (yellow vs Oren): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21 -> Damage roll: 1d8 ⇒ 5

... hitting the courageous cartomancer fair and square.

Round 7 - Bold may post

Red Gill (Rogue - Black) -3hp

Scarplume -2hp

Kurglunn 17hp
Morricone 16hp
Valrani 12hp

Leading the way for some reason, Lirotha draws her starknife...

"Ow! Stop hitting me!"

Starknife AOO on Blue!!
MW Starknife: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

MW Starknife Confirm Crit?: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Damage: 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (4, 4) + 2 = 10

Valrani, slightly slower than the other ravens, dashes out the door to confront the black sashed Gill.

Swinging her enchanted staff, she does her best to knock the thug out.
attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
damage: 2d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (5, 5) + 6 + 1 = 17

The sound of breaking bones echoes around the rooftop.

crit?: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
damage: 2d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (1, 3) + 6 + 1 = 11

"The legal profession is built on putting people like you away."

Well done Lirotha and Val!"

Oren swings twice at the yellow enemy, her face emotionless as she went about her business of punching the baddie's face.

Attack with Mutagen 1d20 + 4 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 4 + 2 - 2 = 21
Damage 1d6 + 3 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 1 + 2 = 10

Attack with Mutagen 1d20 + 4 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 4 + 2 - 2 = 19
Damage 1d6 + 3 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 1 + 2 = 8

Oren is kicking butt!

Morricone startzs his performance and then comes up to aid his comrades!

Kurglunn suddenly materializes as he pushes through the wall behind the fuchsia rogue and swings a blow against the Gill.

Slam, flank, Inspired: 1d20 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 2 + 1 = 7 Damage, Inspired: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 1 = 3

"Die Parrot-Lady!"

Pulling a new Harrow card from her sash with her free hand, she enchants it and throws at the winged woman!

Deadly Dealer Card: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Damage(Magic/Piercing): 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

In a matter of seconds the Silver Ravens fall on the hapless Red Gills and make short work of them.

Valrani smashes one of the rogues with her magically enanched staff cracking his skull.
Oren (with some help from Kurglunn) easily gets rid of another couple of them.
Meanwhile Morricone uses his music to inspire his companions to greater acts of heroism and Lirotha first wounds the last remaining rogue before he's compelled to flee by Rocco's magic and then manages to do the same with Scarplume herself!

@Lirotha: don't forget the effects of Morricone's performance... in this case you would have missed without that +1

Round 8 - Bold may post

Talon 10hp
Lirotha 01hp
Oren 21hp
Rocco 15hp

Red Gill (Rogue - Blue) -6hp, frightened 2 rounds
Scarplume -6hp

Kurglunn 17hp
Morricone 16hp
Valrani 12hp

Talon runs across the bridge and the rooftop and gets behind cover and reloads his pistol.

"Damned winged devil."

@Lirotha: don't forget the effects of Morricone's performance... in this case you would have missed without that +1

Aggh! I tend to forget generic group bonuses without meaning to do so! Sorry.

Rocco rushes across the bridge to join the rest of his group, picking up another piece of rubble from the collapsed wall as he goes. Once he reaches the other side of the bridge, he lobs the rubble into the air, then accelerates it toward Scarplume with his occult power.

TK Projectile, Inspired: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 5 + 1 = 16 Damage, Inspired: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

We'll widdle her down eventually Rocco!

Yeah we'll get there eventually!

Talon recharges his weapon and gets himself safely on the roof followed by Rocco who uses his powers to send a chunk of stone at Scarplume who avoida is by shifting through the air.

The last remaining red jill looks around frantically. Still under the effect of Rocco's magic he does something unexpected... in his teror he tries to jump from the rooftop to the road below!

Acrobatics check: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Despite the steep angle of the rooftop e mantains his ballance and jumps into the the air, screaming!

Acrobatics check: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22

Falling damage NL: 1d6 ⇒ 6

The jump is perfectly executed and the man avoids killing himself landing on his feet, yet he does not get away with such a follhardy act scot free as he takes just a few more step before losing consciousness.

Needless to say, Scarplume is not amused by her followers being wiped out in a combined surprise attack. She screams in rage and swoops down sending another lance of fire, this time aimed at Oren!

Ranged touch attack roll: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19 -> Damage roll: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 4, 5) = 15

The flame beam hits the Tian warriores in teh chest, causing her pain she rarely felt before as the fire burns her flesh.

Round 8 - Bold may post

Rocco 15hp

Red Gill (Rogue - Blue) -6hp, -6hp NL, Unconscious
Scarplume -6hp

Kurglunn 17hp
Morricone 16hp

Oren throws a dart at the flying creature, knowing another gout of fire might do her in.

Inspired Ranged attack 1d20 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 4 = 7
Damage 1d4 + 1 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 3 + 2 = 8

Taking a step toward the flying lady again, she throws another enchanted Harrow card!

Deadly Dealer Card +Inspired: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 4 + 1 = 25
Damage(Magic/Piercing): 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
~Crit confirmed?
Deadly Dealer Card +Inspired: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 4 + 1 = 16
Damage(Magic/Piercing): 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Talon comes charging around the corner and raises his arm and with a loud crack lets off another shot at Scarplume.

Attack (Touch AC within 20ft: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 6 + 1 = 16
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

"C'mon! C'mon! C'mon!"

Valrani scoots around the edge of the roof, and tries to fight fire with ice, sending a blast of frozen water at the flying foe!

ranged touch,inspire: 1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 + 1 = 16
cold damage,inspire: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 1 = 6

Dang! I hope her Ranged Touch AC is 16 or worse!

Morricone move to the next fallen rogue and grabs a crossbow and bolts.

Kurglunn & Rocco are up

Kurglunn moves over to stand in front of Oren and prepares to strike at Scarplume if she comes within striking distance.

Readied Slam, Inspired: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 1 = 10 Damage: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 1 = 3

Rocco steps forward and draws his wand, casting its healing magic on Oren. "Don't go down quite yet, Oren. We've got to bring this feathered b**!! down!"

CLW wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

As Scarplume unleashes her fiery fury on Oren the rest of the Silver Ravens answers in kind: Lirotha, Valrani and Talon all hit the strix, causing her to loose her hood. Her face shows a deep scar running across her forehead while her short rose red colored hair fly in the wind.
For a moment it seems like Scarplume might take flight and run away, but then her face is contorted by a grimace of pure hate as she twirls in the air sending another gout of flame at the heroes!

"Burn you filthy human worms! BURN!"

Burning Hands: 4d4 ⇒ (3, 4, 1, 4) = 12

Everyone but Valrani REF save DC12 for half damage

Round 9 - Bold may post

Talon 10hp ?
Lirotha 01hp ?
Oren 15hp ?
Rocco 15hp ?

Scarplume -21 hp

Kurglunn 17hp ?
Morricone 16hp ?
Valrani 12hp

Reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15 Whew!

Talon rolls to the side avoiding some of her flames. But the burns are still pretty bad when added to his previous wounds.

"Spread out so she can't catch us all with the flames again!" he says before taking cover and reloading his pistol again.

Reflex 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

No sooner than Soren feels the gentle coolness of the healing, she again feels the horrible flames thrown at her by the creature. She waits to see if the others could bring it down before throwing another dart.

Delay.
