Albus, Tobbs, Dwalindor - Please make a Will Save DC 17. If you fail you are shaken.

Tobbs fails to overrun the esobok and is stopped cold. The other esobok takes a hit from Dwalindor and attempts to rend Tobbs' flesh.

Attack (Bite): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
Attack (Bite): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10 Not confirmed.
Grab: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 Tobbs is grappled.

Damage (Bite): 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

The other esobok jumps hard on Tobbs as well.

Attack (Bite): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
Attack (Claw): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22
Attack (Claw): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24

Damage (Claw): 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Damage (Claw): 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Meanwhile the tall psychopomp simply floats in place. It turns its gaze on Albus.

Feeling a bit...slower, my friend?

Albus, make a will save, DC 17. If you fail your Intelligence is lowered by 6.

Map

Back to you!

Tobbs goes down from the damage from the esoboks.

"Tobbs!!!!!"

Calin takes on the aspect of the Tiger, then moves to J14 and fires an arrow at the esobok grappling with Tobbs.

attack: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 11 + 2 = 33damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 11 + 2 = 29crit damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (1, 5) + 2 = 8

The arrow strikes the esobok savagely tearing deep into its vitals.

Will, rage : 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 2 = 12 +4 v spells/spell abilities

Dwalindor sees the creatures drop Tobbs and pauses before striking the one he hit before.

"Leave Tobbs alone!!. "

MW Lucern, rage, pa/FF : 1d20 + 8 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 2 - 2 = 12 for damage: 1d12 + 6 + 3 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 3 + 6 = 20

But the dwarf just hits the ground...

Rameth moves to I-13 and attacks the creature

Mutated Spear/SC: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 9 - 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 25 for 1d8 + 7 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 16

Will Shaken: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Will vs Psychopomp: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

Im not your friend.
Albus casts enlarge person on himself and stepping back 5 ft.

The esoboks turn from Tobbs' limp form and turn to the rest of you.

One moves clockwise and attacks Calin, failing to lock its jaws on to the halfling.

Attack (Bite): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

The other turns and attacks Rameth.

Attack (Bite): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Attack (Claw): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
Attack (Claw): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Damage (Claw): 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Only one of its claws penetrates the investigator's armor and causes damage.

The shadowy creature to the north vanishes and reappears behind Calin.

Attack (Scythe): 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (13) + 14 = 27
Damage (Scythe): 2d4 + 7 ⇒ (3, 1) + 7 = 11

Go!

Dwalindor moves to flank the psyco and swings again...

MW Lucern, rage, pa/FF, shake, flank : 1d20 + 8 + 2 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 8 + 2 - 2 + 2 = 17 for damage: 1d12 + 6 + 3 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 3 + 6 = 20

1d20 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 7 + (1) = 10 religion for the other creature

dwalindor probably around h-16 on map...moved around to the southto avoid aoo .

Rameth, the creature is a Vanth Psychopomp - the grim reapers of a dozen cultures' legends.

They have the ability to teleport at will, and are hugely resistant to damage not caused by the densest of metals (DR 10/adamantine).

DM my ac is 22, is doesn't look like any of the claws hit, am i missing something. Also did my last attack hit?

Rameth will assist the attack of someone near by him, not sure who is where.

Mutated Spear/SC: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 9 - 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 28 for 1d8 + 7 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 15
Aid: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 9 - 1 + 2 = 23 vs AC 10

One of the claw attacks equaled 22 so it did meet your AC. But I did miss the spear thrust, it killed the Esobok there with Calin and Dwalindor's attacks earlier.

Map

Oh duh. Long day

If the enemy dropped before he moved, dwalindor would have switched targets.

In a whirlwind of magic and steel Albus steps forward to attack the creature.

Current AC: 18, swift action to activate arcane pool, 5ft step and full attack..
Attk: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 8 - 2 = 7
Dmg: 2d8 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (3, 7) + 5 + 1 = 16

Casting Def DC15: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28
Arcane Mark Spell Spellstrike: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 8 - 2 = 21
Dmg: 2d8 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (8, 3) + 5 + 1 = 17

Which creature Albus? The one near Calin or the one near Rameth?

Calin takes a 5' step to I14 and takes a total defence stance.

AC 23 until next turn

constitution: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

Tobbs stabilizes.

The second esobok is killed by Rameth's spear thrust, but the Vanth seems supremely unconcerned.

It vanishes from sight.

Map

Rameth doesn't see a foe so he chugs down his Iron Skin Extract

Dwalindor moves over to use scent to find and if possible, flank the remaining psycopomp

"Meet Lucy! ."

MW Lucern, rage, pa/FF : 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 8 + 2 + 2 = 26 for damage: 1d12 + 6 + 3 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 3 + 6 = 23

Calin casts Gravity Bow and looks for the enemy.

perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31

Whoops that psychopomp is dead. Forgot to take it off the map. Did you want to search around for the big guy?

The psychopomp who vanished doesn't seem to be near you Dwalindor, and you can't detect it in the immediate area Calin.

"Not sure where it's gone to. Keep your eyes open, I can't believe that it's given up."

"I ain't smelling it nearby...so the coward may have left with his two crocobuddies dead."

Albus?

Albus casts Mirror Image and 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 images of the massive magus appear on the courtyard.

Into all your minds comes whispered words.

My, my, seems as if you're slightly more challenging than I thought.

He reappears next to Dwalindor and slashes at the dwarf.

Attack (Scythe): 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17
Damage (Scythe): 2d4 + 7 ⇒ (1, 1) + 7 = 9

Rollin' great today.

Calin uses the wand to cast CLW on Dwalindor.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

"I'll do what I can to keep you healed, make him hurt!"

Dwalindor was not yet hit, so put that clw on Tobbs or yourself?

Dwalindor will yell out...

"Raaarrr! I think he is over here!"

He will stay in rage and swing at the creature after stepping back 5'

MW Lucern, rage, pa/FF : 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 2 = 13 for damage: 1d12 + 6 + 3 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 3 + 6 = 18

Rolling great here too! :(

Rameth steps into range to attack

Mutated Spear/SC: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 9 - 1 + 1 + 2 = 16 for 1d8 + 7 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 14
Rameth uses his move action to study it

Rameth, it was 20 feet from you at F17.

Map

Dwalindor, does 17 not hit you?

Copy, I'll put it on myself then.

Oh yeah 17 certainly hits. I had included buckler but did not deduct rage from AC. Was thinking I was at 18 (but currently at 16). Calin can still use the clw more, as Dwalindor has 44 (with rage hp)

in that case i will study it and move next to Dwalindor

Albus advances and attacks the creature.

Moves to around H18 I think and attacks. Swift action arcane strike.
Attk: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
Dmg: 2d8 + 7 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2, 7) + 7 + 1 + 1 = 18

Albus's strike does connect with the Vanth and it rocks back from the damage.

Its response is to continue trying to kill the dwarven barbarian.

Attack (Scythe): 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (9) + 14 = 23
Attack (Scythe): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

Damage (Scythe): 2d4 + 7 ⇒ (3, 4) + 7 = 14

Dwalindor reels back 5' from the mighty blade cutting into him.

"Calin, i may need to take you up on some of that healin ."

MW Lucern, rage, pa/FF : 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 8 + 2 = 26 for damage: 1d12 + 6 + 3 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 3 + 6 = 16

Ok since I am next to Lindy I should be able to 5ft and attack it now

Mutated Spear/SC: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 1 + 1 + 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 9 - 1 + 1 + 1 + (4) + 2 = 26 for 1d8 + 7 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 21
Aid: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 9 - 1 + 2 = 15 vs AC 10 to add to Lindys attack

using inspiration and his spear anility

"Here you go Lindy!"

Calin casts CLW on Dwalindor.

CMW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

"Thanks bud."

To Rameth's horror his spear doesn't bypass the terrible ability of the psychopomp to shrug off near fatal blows (wrong DR type!).

Clever boys. But if you run into real trouble with the likes of me, how will you handle a demilich?

Albus's response is to try his tried and true approach, but he can't land a blow.

Attk: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 8 - 2 = 12
Dmg: 1d10 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 1 = 7
Casting Def DC15: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
Arcane Mark Spell Spellstrike: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 8 - 2 = 9
Dmg: 1d10 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 = 11

Attack (Scythe): 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (11) + 14 = 25
Damage (Scythe): 2d4 + 7 ⇒ (4, 3) + 7 = 14
Attack (Scythe): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23
Damage (Scythe): 2d4 + 7 ⇒ (3, 3) + 7 = 13

His scythe returns to hit Dwalindor twice more.

Surrender now, there's no shame in being unable to defeat death. It catches everyone sooner or later...even the gods.

Dr over 21?!

Sorry, no, the Spear's ability won't handle his DR type.

Oh that I knew, I was using the ability that adds +1 to the attack roll not theno e that overcomes dr

any damage over the DR should still apply. He did 21
Damage.

So Dwalindor and Rameth's attacks appear to do no damage or just minimal damage (like half or less)? I do not know too many things with DR20/anything, but they are usually way-way above our pay grade.

Dwalindor gasps as the scythe cuts him twice more (25 after DR1/-).

"Bossman, we ain't scratchin' it...and it is scratchin' me a bunch."

If Rameth continues to press the attack, Dwalindor will continue, but will otherwise withdraw 30 back.

miscommunication between me and dm it has dr/10 if I recall correctly what DM said

Calin administer a stronger healing potion to him! a CMW potion can be given to him as a full rd action

That is correct, Rameth. Rameth would still be shocked because his spear didn't penetrate far enough.
