GM Raltus' - Slaying Giants

Game Master Raltus

Balder keeps his eyes peeled on the water looking for whatever tried to grab him.

Just so you know, Short swords are Light weapons which can't have furious focus applied to it. It can only be applied to Two and One handed weapons.

Will save: 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 6 - 2 = 10

Balder sees his target, slashing down into the water his sword bounces off the bottom of the boat.

Dain's arrow flies wide of his mark, as he slips a bit on what he hopes is just some slime on the narrow walk way.

The woman seeing her almost dead prey move out of her line of sight Turns to Lanneth who has Cursed her..

Long Bow: 1d20 + 13 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (5) + 13 + 1 - 1 = 181d8 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 1 + 1 + 2 = 11
Long Bow: 1d20 + 13 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 13 + 1 - 1 = 251d8 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 1 + 1 + 2 = 12

Long Bow: 1d20 + 8 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (8) + 8 + 1 - 1 = 161d8 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 1 + 1 + 2 = 10
Long Bow: 1d20 + 8 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (20) + 8 + 1 - 1 = 281d8 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 1 + 2 = 8

Bite: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 111d3 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

The creature in the muck again tries to bite Balder, missing because of the thick Armor the man is wearing.

Lanneth starts laughing madly at the orc.

You will have to do better then that if you are going to threaten my companion!
Night Fairies Take her!

Move: Cackle. Standard: Slumber Hex (Will 17) or sleep for 5 rounds.

Will save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
Will save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

The woman's eye roll back in her head as she splashes down into the muck

Yorikata hears the outcome of Lanneth's interception and comes out of hiding to pay that b%%+% the pain back. Even if it will be only a short pain.

CDG: 2d4 + 10 + 3d6 ⇒ (3, 1) + 10 + (3, 6, 1) = 24
I know, that's more than one round of actions. Fill it in like it fits.

Well it might have been good to question her but this works just as well.

"okay what just happened! Is the thing still in the water?" Balder says looking around.

Perception? Yorikata is very murder hobo, what will happen when a Giant hits her for that much in one swing? :)

Yori staggers up to the woman, blood flowing freely from the arrows sticking out of her body.

Balder asks if the "thing" in the water has left as he feels it slither around his leg again.

She will save/Die on Round 4 - So everyone can act

Bite: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 101d3 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Fort Save VS DC 35: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Fort Save VS DC 35: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

now I could say that she has total concealment from being submerged and drowning.

Dain moves over to help pull up the downed woman

Just to confirm you are killing her?

Dain helps to pull the body of the woman upon to the small deck, Balder again yelps as something attacks him from inside the water. Dain can see it is a human woman not an Orc at all

You may not want to kill her, we need answers!

I can kill her now, or you can try to wrestle around with a strong enemy at almost full HP with your strongest magic used and gone. You decision.

"What for? She hates us and wants to kill us. What answer do you need." Yorikata complains.

Dain tries sticking a finger into the wounds
Heal: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

Yorikata angrily stabs the sleeping woman (without CDG) and stomps off.
Stab: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 271d4 + 5 + 3d6 ⇒ (2) + 5 + (4, 4, 5) = 20

Dain sticks his finger in a wound to stem some bleeding, Yorikata who is bleeding as well drives her dagger down adding more blood to the woman who dies from blood loss.

What are you doing now?

Gran't' turns his hand into a club and tries to hit her across the head.
Attack NL: 1d20 + 8 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 8 - 4 = 212d6 + 7 ⇒ (5, 1) + 7 = 13

Dain sighs. Well let's go help Balder then Dain stows his bow(Move) and draws his axe(standard)

That was non leathal damage. So she is still alive, but knocked out.

I'd like to know what else she has in store for us, and give the captain the chance to administer justice rather then being persecuted for the slaughter of one of his crew.

She walks over to Yorikata and reaches out to lay a hand on her, healing some of her wounds..
Healing Hex.: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (4, 7) + 5 = 16

"Stomped off" means, I'm no longer there. I left the bilges.

The woman lays unconscious on the gang plank, as Dain stomps over whatever was attacking Balder seems to let go and disappears into the much of the bilges.

[ooc]When you get up top you will have to roll perception to find Yorikata, Lanneth you can send out calls but she can ignore them.

Yorikata Stealth: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (7) + 19 = 26

Dain help secure the woman and drags her topside

Where are you going to tie her up?

The group heads to the top, Yorikata no where to be see and the crew saw her go into the stables area then disappear.

Ragg approaches. "Who do ye have there? A Stowaway?"

To the mast! Hands and feet bound.

Well one violent stowaway. This one shot us full of arrows and might just be the one behind all our troubles

Lanneth heads down to the stables looking for Yorikata.

Balder removes all weapons and gear from the woman while she gets tied up.

Yorikata stays hidden.

Raltus gave a stealth of 26 to beat.

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13

Lanneth searches around the stables growing more frantic as she can't find her companion.

She starts talking out loud to herself as she gives up.
Where did go... I can feel you need pain relief....

She is heads back to the door intending to search elsewhere in the ship since Yorikata clearly isn't here.

Maybe she needs a Scooby Snack.

A faint bark like noise comes out of the corner of a box.

"Could be, never seen the look o' her before." Ragg says as the crew starts to gather around. "She out cold?" Ragg looks at your Those that are still around as Lanneth goes in search of her companion

Yep. Wonder if Lanneth has any kind of magic to compel the truth out of her.

Lanneth looks again in the direction where she heard the bark come from.

Come out so I can help you Yorikata... That cruel woman will not be hurting anyone any more.

"We can beat it out o' her." Halrex says with a wicked grin on her face. "Ye found her in the bilge? I wonder how she got down there."

She seemed ready to fight to the death so punching her in the face seems unlikely to work.

Yorikata crawls out from the straw halfway to Lanneth. It is surprising how well she can guilt trip someone just with the look in her eyes. Or at least she tries.

Look at that fuzzy little face and adorable eyes!

Lanneth moves over and sits down so Yorikata can craw in her lap if she wants to. As she pets the fox she also lets her power flow into her and heal her.

Healing Hex: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (7, 4) + 5 = 16

There, there, I've got you now.

As she sits and sees the extent of her companions injuries, she summons a water fairy to ease her companions pain even more.
Burn Vomit Swarm to cast Cure Moderate.
Cure Moderate: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (5, 4) + 5 = 14

There is that better?

"Well maybe she just wanted you? Maybe she like em short and beardy." Halrex jokes to Dain.

Ragg steps closer to the woman, moving the hair out of her face. "Never seen her before, I will have one of my crew guard her till she wakes."

We best check down in the bilges again to see if she left anything there. Dain will do so with Balder or Gran't

Yorikata leans at Lanneth putting her head on her lap letting out a sigh.

"Aye I will go down, I will take Taug with me and one o' yer group too ta make sure things are good." Ragg looks for a volunteer

Ragg waits a second, looking at those still there. "Lets go Dain, ye can cover us with yer bow as we have a look." Ragg heads down the stairs with Taug in tow

Dain follows Ragg and keeps his bow ready

Making your way to the Bilges again, no one brings a light source as all of you can see in the pitch blackness.

"Where did ye fight her?" Ragg asks

Dain lights a torch for those who are night blind. Over there. Balder said something attacked his leg.

After searching for a while nothing is turned up, Dain fishes through the water on one side Ragg and Taug on the other.

"Whatever it was it is gone now." Ragg says heading back up the stairs.
