DaWay's PFS Confirmation 2 (Inactive)

Game Master DaWay

Not gillmen, not anymore. At one point they may have been warriors and priests but now they are something else

Well that's a bit cryptic, isn't it? What exactly happened to them? Where are these mysterious ex-priests now?

"And are they dangerous?" Kalivastri asks.

Maherpa nods at the question.

"He shouldn't need help getting rid of them otherwise, should he? Of course, we know less about them than we do him. It is hard to know which side we should take. Or if we should."

"Speaking of danger, shouldn't Janira be back by now?" Gabriel asks with concern.

I speak of the undead. Yes they are dangerous.

Pathways lie to the east and west.

west then?, ignoring concerns on the halflings fate.

"Since she was leading a creature away from us, even should she be safe she could have spent quite some time traveling away. We won't know her fate for sure until we see her again, and that will b on her schedule, not ours."

"Undead you say. Well, let us go deal with them." Kalivastri says, hefting her Scythe. "We got some Holy Water in that pack, don't we?"

Gabriel frowns.

"I won't disagree with your argument, but I find your apparently lack of concern disturbing," he tells the others. "Regardless, though, the undead are the more immediate concern."

"Uori?" he asks turning to the gillman, "where might we find these 'others'?"

Uori points to the passages ways east and west. Before you go may I offer a blessing to each of you?

"Certainly," Gabriel says, "and thank you."

Maherpa accepts.

"If we are to be fighting evil, then I will take all the help I can." she says. "But if I can only have one for myself or my friend here..." she touches her Saurian companion on the head. "Give it to her instead of to me."

Very kind of you, I agree. And thank you. Jerrik looks to the others. East or west? I vote west.

"It seems foolish to refuse blessing before seeking to confront undead."

Maherpa starts moving westward.

The persistent glow of the bluish fungi dimly lights the way deeper below the Kortos Mounts. The tunnels broaden to reveal a shallow river that bisects an immense tunnel stretching to the north and south. To the east a small passage exits the chamber at a steep incline.

1d6 ⇒ 5

On the other side of the bank you see a trio of mites with a giant centipede as a protector.

I believe initiatives are in order.

Initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11

Initiative 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17

Initiative 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
Companion Initiative 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

Init: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

DaWay, may be better for you to roll for us all in the future - thats what I do in my PbP's - game runs smoother and faster

mite init 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21
giant centipede 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17

the three mites throw darts at
Maherpa 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 201d3 - 1 ⇒ (2) - 1 = 1
Gabriel 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 101d3 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0
Kalivastri 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 161d3 - 1 ⇒ (2) - 1 = 1

the giant centipede moves to intercept anyone attacking the mites

Pathfinders go!

Arrgh! Tonight you roast in hell!, the desert man curses as he is struck.

No map? I'm cool if there's not

He charges the giant centipede and power attacks with furious focus.

Great Sword 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 5 + 2 = 21 Damage 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (4, 1) + 9 = 14

-2 ac until my next round

Trying to maintain a safer distance, Flaern pulls his bow and lets an arrow fly at the more distant of the mites.

Ranged Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
Damage, if relevant: 1d8 ⇒ 8

Kalivastri makes a hissing sound and her companion lurches forward to attack the Centipede.

Handle Animal to attack as a Free 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16
Allosaurus charge and bite attack 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19
1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Kalivastri joins in the attack herself, her Scythe swinging.

Charge. 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
2d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 1) + 3 = 7

Obviously, we can't all charge the centipede. It's probably dead by now anyway, but am I able to charge past or are there too many bodies?

Hey! I got it first :)

Jarrik will Inspire Courage. +1 to attack, damage, etc.

The centipede is down, you are able to charge the mites, so Kalivastri I will apply your rolls to them. and there are down just like that. I am assuming you will be able to kill the next one no problem so fast forwarding a bit.

The tunnel continues to carry you towards the surface. You here the faint sounds of combat and a familiar woman's voice half-shouting and half-Reciting “As the legendary Gregaro Voth successfully battled the wild beasts in the deepest reaches of the Mwangi Expanse, so shall I defeat you, foul servant of Lamashtu!”

Maherpa runs towards the song and commotion.

The young elf laughs. "And you were worried!", as he also rushes on to see what help can be provided.

Jerrik will follow the others as they hear the song. More trouble I gather!

Good, she's alive, Gabriel thinks as he rushes to Janira's aid.

The light of the surface world above provides a welcome reprieve from the blue and green fungus of the caverns below, and light illuminates a stream whose water is hastened by runoff from a recent storm further up the mountains. A ledge to the west rises up to the nearby forest canopy.

You emerge from the caverns into a 40' clearing at the base of the Kortos Mounts. The full moon above casts provides dim light over the area, bright enough to illuminate even the shaded leaf litter beneath the trees. These patches of woodland are also filled with underbreash.

The stream is about 10 feet wide and 5 feet deep in this area and the water moves downstream, fast. The slope to the west gradully rises to a height of 20 ft. providing a commanding view and a clear advantage for any ranged attacks.

Nearly 100 feet from the cave's entrance Janira Gavix is locking in combat with her relentless minotaur foes in a clearing on the southern bank of the stream.

Initiatives and actions please.

Initiative 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

We need to cross the stream to get to the fight? Cave mouth then 40ft clearing then 10ft wide/5ft deep river then 50ft to fight (south bank of stream) is how I read your text...

Kalivastri Initiative 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17
Companion Initiative 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12

Kalivastri pulls out the scroll of Entangle that was in Janira's pack and advances towards the fight.

Move 20ft forward, draw Scroll
Companion will stay at heel, and advance with her.

Is there a map?

Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Jerrik will move toward the log at his maximum speed and if now within 100' of the enemy he will begin to cast Sleep, which will go off on my next turn as it is a one round casting time. If I'm still out of range I'll double move toward the log.

Hopefully it'll let me post now...

Initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13

Gabriel races toward the sound of the fray, leaping the stream and preparing to charge Janira's opponent.

Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Flaern examines the distance, pulls his bow, and lets an arrow fly, trying to take some pressure off of Janira. He plans to move to the higher ground "commanding position" before taking a second shot.

Ranged Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23 No appropriate feats, 100' base range
Ranged Attack Confirm: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

Base Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 4
Critical Bonus Damage: 2d8 ⇒ (3, 5) = 8

Everyone don't forget your inspire courage granted by Janira

janira init 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
minotaur init 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (18) + 0 = 18

Flaern 23, Kalivastri 17, Gabriel 13, Companion 12, Jerrick 9, Mehpera 9, Minotaur 7

Flaern takes a well placed shot and gravely injures the minotaur (14 damage)

Kalivastri moves and draws a scroll, her companion follows

Gabriel double moves through the rough terrain.

Jerrick begins casting a spell

Mephera I am assuming moves

Janira continues her bardic song for everyone. attempts to disarm the minotaur with her whip 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 and fails

The minotaur launches a powerful charge at the halfling bard 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 122d6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 4) + 6 = 13

Gabriel charges the minotaur, his muscles—loose and quick—tightening instantly at the moment of impact.

Melee Attack: 1d20 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 4 + 1 + 2 = 17
Unarmed Damage: 1d6 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 1 + 2 = 9

Moving up onto the hillock, Flaern tries another shot at the minoutaur.

Ranged Attack into Melee w/ Inspire: 1d20 + 3 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 3 - 4 + 1 = 20

Holy snot buckets! Is the dicebot making up for everything else it has done to me over the past, oh, 9 months?

Ranged Attack into Melee w/ Inspire to confirm: 1d20 + 3 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 3 - 4 + 1 = 17

I know a 19 would be good enough, but I don't know about 17, so . . ..

Base Damage w/ Inspire: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Critical Hit Bonus Damage w/ Inspire: 2d8 + 2 ⇒ (8, 6) + 2 = 16

And at x3, the Inspire Courage bonus would have taken that first shot up to 15 damage. Hopefully the one point proves insignificant before the minotaur gets to act again, anyway.

Round 2?

Should be in charging distance with a run last round.

Charge with Power Attack and furious focus.

1d20 + 5 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 5 + 2 + 1 = 22 Inspire is the +1
2d6 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (1, 2) + 9 + 1 = 13 Inspire is the +1

great damage roll :(

Doh! For some reason I keep thinking charge also adds to damage. It does not. My damage is only 7.

Also, my AC until my next turn is 15.

Seeing the other Pathfinders getting into melee, Kalivastri abandons her idea to use the Entangle scroll and instead casts a spell on her companion as they advance further, and then hisses at her, causing the Allosaurus to spring forward to look for an opportunity to get into melee with the Minotaur.

Cast Magic Fang on the Allosaurus, move 20ft forward, Handle Animal as a free to direct the companion to attack
1d20 + 12 ⇒ (6) + 12 = 18

Allosaurus double moves 80ft to get into range to attack next round.

Sleep goes off in round 2. DC 14 Will negates, no effect if this guy is over 4 HD somehow.

After the spell goes off Jerrik will move another 30' and fire his bow if the minotaur is not asleep.

Bow: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 3 + 1 = 15 Arrow: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Add +1 to both if I'm now with 30' of the target for PBS.
