DaWay's PFS Snows of Summer (Inactive)

Game Master DaWay

Then Losterial is free.

Kelvor swings at the tree and with a sickening thud, splinters crack through the bark and into the heart of the tree. Sending it to the ground lifeless.

Boram is free of the tree too.

The tree attacks Boram 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 121d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 plus the sticky resin described above.

The tree attacks Baltazaar. 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 61d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8 plus the sticky resin described above.

Everyone go...

Boram takes another step away from his assailant and throws a bomb between it and the tree attacking Baltazar, hoping to catch both in the blast.

Attack (Bomb, Point Blank Shot) vs. AC 5: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 1 = 6
Damage (Bomb (splash only), Point Blank Shot, Vulnerable): 4 + 1 + 4 + 1 = 10

Kelvor steps forward and swings again at the two remaining.

Pwr Atk: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 7 - 2 = 25 Dmg: 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (4, 4) + 9 = 17
confirm: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 7 - 2 = 21 Dmg: 4d6 + 18 ⇒ (4, 6, 6, 4) + 18 = 38

Cleave to adjacent foe: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 7 - 2 = 16 Dmg: 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (1, 2) + 9 = 12

"Good one Kelvor!"

Lsotariel will pull out her crossbow and load it with a bolt.

END OF COMBAT

Bloody animal tracks mark the snow where the trail descends
from the ridge above.

Knowledge (Nature): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

"Careful - those are giant weasel tracks, and it looks like it's wounded"

"Careful - those are giant weasel tracks, and it looks like it's wounded"

Standing amid the shattered remnants of the tree creatures, Kelvor picks splinters from his armor and spits small pieces of wood from his mouth ptew!.

"Let's go find it. We still haven't found this Nob fellow. Perhaps he is down there."

Perception checks please.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Weird, ghosts ate my post...

Boram and Baltazar you notice bear traps hidden in the snow in your immediate path.

Boram points out the bear traps. "Careful. Traps. There and there." He continues on.

Baltazar says nothing, but waves a hand for the others to stay back. He draws a leather roll from his belt and opens it, revealing some thin metal tools. The halfling moves closer to disable the traps and take them with him, so they may use them later, if needed.
DD: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
DD: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23

Lostariel follows the party a little bit on the back, more cautious now especially right after that tree attack.

Baltazaar easily disables the bear traps, you continue down the path as you approach a clearing you see more than a dozen boulder-sized chunks of ice litter the clearing ahead where a strange hut sits perched on tree trunks atop a raised mound of snow-covered earth. Beyond that lies a hut.

Perception checks as you move through the ice block maze. No T10s.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

...and, just confirming. We see a hut with a hut behind it?

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
What the hell is happening with this site?

I know just lost a 22 perception.

perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

I know just lost a 22 perception.

[dice=perception]1d20+5

And it's back.

Sorry, you just see 1 hut. Distracted by my daughter. Just got back from the ER. What a day.

Kelvor you notice a chill wind stirring and a flicker of movement in the blocks of Ice.

Everyone notices faces of frozen dead manifesting inside the transparent blocks of ice. WILL DC 13 or be affected by the scare spell.

Will save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

Will save: 1d20 ⇒ 14

Will Save (vs. Fear): 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 1 + 2 = 16

Boram pulls and quaffs his mutagen, preparing for the worst.

+2 Natural Armor, +4 Dex (total AC 20), -2 Wis for 10 minutes.

One of the faces says I'm sorry! Don't hurt me! I never meant to call you names!

Boram keeps silent, ignoring the faces and continuing to make his way toward the hut.

“Please don’t keep me here. It’s so cold. I miss my mother.”

Will Save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

"Dont get me near those things!" shouts Lostariel accompanied by a loud scream, trying to run away from the ice blocks.

Sorry, GM - just looked up scare and saw that it will cause even those who fail to run away for a round, then all of us (except Lostariel) are back in control of our actions. So, retcon my earlier post.

Boram sees the faces of the dead and hears their voices, turns and runs as fast as his little legs will carry him. Several seconds later, however, his brain catches up to him and he stops, turns, and looks for the source of his irrational behavior.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22

After eveyone passes through the ice block maze. A little scarred but still in one piece. You make it to the hut, and what a strange hut it is.

A small hut stands here on four legs, each one a single tree trunk whose gnarled roots resemble the toes of a giant chicken. The hut is constructed of heavy logs with a patchwork roof of shaved bark shingles. Inside the hut’s open doorway, a small figure sits on a carved wooden chair, staring across the clearing at the trail on the other side.

Am I still scared?

No

Baltazar approaches careful about traps that might lurk between the entrance and the figure.
Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

How close are we from finishing this DaWay?

The doll merely sits, no traps are detected.

YOu are at part M the PFS part finishes at P. So you have this location. Two quick locations along the way and then a 5 part conclusion. So if we stay adamant about this we could finish in two weeks.

"Want to check if the doll will consider us as hostiles?"

"A wise idea, Lostariel," says Kelvor. The burned Shoanti warrior steps forward. He rests his earthbreaker over his shoulder and cautiously approaches the hut entrance.

Hmm, is this the doll of a little child, left in this position to watch for her parents' return?

"Hello, the house. Is anybody inside? We mean no harm," speaks Kelvor, just loudly enough that his voice carries into the hut.

The doll makes no movements. The house is silent.

"You might want to approach with caution Kelvor," whispers Lostariel.

"Hunnn, you... why are we stopping here to begin with? I think we should keep following the trail, there seems to be nothing here."

Baltazar gets into the house and start looking for anything worth of note, maybe a clue.
Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

?: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24

You see nothing.

Boram, too, steps into the house and looks for anything out of the ordinary.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17

Not seeing anything, however, he shrugs and looks where the doll appears to have its gaze fixed.

It;s weird with one mirror and one gem for an eye it seems to be afixed to whomever is looking at it.

Not really sure what to do at this point, GM. Is the intent for us to continue down the path?

If that's what you want to do....

The trail continues through a narrow pass, descending south and east into an icy valley. An unusual pattern of lines is scratched into the fresh snow covering the trail at the edge of the clearing.

Boram will save please.

Will Save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

The creepy doll stands before you in the pathway some 30' ahead. Boram that is your ally.

We can go to initiative.
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

So, to confirm - Lostariel, Kelvor, and Baltazar are my enemies?

Initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

These dolls are scary indeed.

Initiative: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

Initiative: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
