Dark Forest Defenders (Inactive)

Game Master BloodWolven

Escape Artist: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29 <-- not sure it the -4 Dex for being grappled affects this, I don't think so, but am not positive.

Tbblbitz squeals in anger as the beast catches her.
Let go you stupid thing.

Will post further when I know whether she escaped.

"Let 'er go ye o'ergrown crabcake!" Eina yells as she lands next to the thing.

Sword: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 14

Round 4

Slam 1 (Flanking): 1d20 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 13 + 2 = 21
Slam 2 (Flanking): 1d20 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 13 + 2 = 16

Damn, if someone aids me next round I can blow through that armor

Round 4

Another hit from Decr' and the armor surrounding the crab fully begins to fall apart. Shield is able to slam against the chull but is not able to make any progress against the organic protection, instead just knocking off more of the outer layer, Eina and Ibrox do much of the same.

Tbbblbitz frees herself from the pincer slipping out of its strong grip.

The crab like chuul rotates quickly, its organic legs showing with the falling outer later. It goes after shield and slams both pincers down hard on the golem securing him in its grip. There are still many mechanical parts to the creature as if it is half golem and have aberration.

Pincer: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (16) + 14 = 30 damage: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (6, 2) + 7 = 15
Pincer: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (16) + 14 = 30 damage: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (6, 3) + 7 = 16
Pincer grab: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (9) + 23 = 32

Round 4

"I am not sure if my spells would affect it or not, does anyone else care for a boost?" He asks not knowing yet how effective his magics can be for each individual.

Eina takes a hand off the hilt of her sword and snarls before trying to rip into the thing before her.

Sword: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16
Bite: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
Claw: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Whiff, whiff, aaaaaaand whiff.

Round 4 - continued
Once free, Tbblbitz uses her Move action to Detect Evil to determine whether this monstrosity is in fact evil.

I will post Round 5 in the morning once I find out if it is evil as my actions depend on this determination.

Round 4

Seeing Tbbl free herself and the shell of the creature crack, Decr moves closer to it to better surround it, making some guttural noises as he does so to signal to Oua to attack as well.

Decr
Slam: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 10 + 2 = 22
Damage: 1d4 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Ouaora
Bite: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
Claw 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28
Claw 2: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28
Damage: 1d6 + 1d6 + 12 ⇒ (5) + (5) + 12 = 22

Just as Decr slams both of his heavy leathery fists down at the Chull's backside just as Oua moves to tear open it's side.

Edit: Realized Oua does not get flanking.

Round 5

"Damage sustained! Still operating within acceptable parameters!" Shield said as the pincers crushed its wooden exterior.

Slam 1 (PA, Flanking, Grappled): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22
3d6 + 12 ⇒ (6, 2, 1) + 12 = 21

Slam 2 (PA, Flanking, Grappled): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29
3d6 + 12 ⇒ (5, 4, 5) + 12 = 26

The golem raises its fists and drops them heavily on the carapace over the chuul's face with little concern for the damage the beast was inflicting upon it.

Round 5

Nora screams at the party from above.

"The stone. Go for the stone! it's under the tentacles! It's Green about oh half a foot long by quarter of a foot wide. The thing keeps repeating it keeps him alive."

Nora takes out her crossbow and tries to shoot near the stone to direct everyone's eyes to it.

Crossbow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25 Aiming for stone.
Dmg: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Round 4
Both Decr' and his ape friend rend into the creature.

Round 5
Nora's bolt is intercepted by one of the many tentacles as if they knew where she was aiming. Shield even though being grappled by the pincers still slams its fists into the creature making the exoskeleton crumple, crack and break in. Wolf fires off a glob of acid to slowly aid the group on taking out the beast.

25 Eina*
19 Wolf*
16 Ibrox and his wolf
14 Shield*
14 'Crab' - AC 22, Touch 8 _ 17/100 hp
12 Tbblibtz
6 Nora*
5 Decr’ and his ape

Round 5
Seeing the creature getting pounded by her companions, the tiny fey dodges in once more with her rapier hoping to open a wound, or create an opening for her harder hitting companions.

Attack-rapier: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 21 <-- add+2 if flanking bonus (not sure how this works when sharing the enemies space), reduce crab's AC if Grappled condition applicable.
Damage: 1d2 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 1 + (1) = 3 <-- 1d6 sneak if flanking

Not sure if that hit, or if there are any other bonuses.

Leave my friends alone you stupid bug.

Round 5

The Chull takes Shield and moves him from pincer to tentacles, these produce a poison which would make most creatures paralyzed, Fort DC 19 or paralyzed for 6 rounds. Once there Shield finds out to his dismay that the mandibles of the creature begins to tear into his body, it seems to like the wood, 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8. It then swings one of its mighty pincers up to Eina. It hits hard and secures her as its next victim.

Pincer: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29 damage: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (4, 2) + 7 = 13
Pincer grab: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (20) + 23 = 43

Now both Shield and Nora are grappled by the creature.

Tbblbitz gets into a position to strike it and gets into a weak point.

Round 6

25 Eina
19 Wolf
16 Ibrox and his wolf
14 Shield
14 'Crab' - AC 22, Touch 8 _ 14/100 hp
12 Tbblibtz
6 Nora
5 Decr’ and his ape

Round 5

Decr and his ape Oua again attack the Chull.

Decr Slam: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 10 + 2 = 31
Damage: 1d4 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

Ouaora Bite: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
Claw: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20
Claw 2: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

Though Oua manages to somehow miss the squid-crab-thing entirely, Decr slams into the soft tissue of the creature.

Eina takes her sword in one hand and tries to drive it deep in the thing's chest. Her other hand then shoots out, looking from something vital.

Attack sword 1-handed: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29
Damage: 1d10 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

Claw: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Damage Just in case she has a flank: 1d4 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Immune to poison

Slam 1 (PA): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22
3d6 + 12 ⇒ (3, 6, 2) + 12 = 23

Slam 2 (PA): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Even as the mandibles chew into his wooden torso, Shield manages to pull an arm free from the poisonous tentacles and slam a fist into the chitinous maw.

Knowing she'll be unlikely to get another shot at that stone, Nora takes a deep breath in and flies at the creature. Getting near it she pull on some of her demonic power to drain the life from the crab.

Touch Attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12
Dmg: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 3) = 6

The monstrous crab like creature shudders from all the blows, chunks are missing from its body and only the metal parts of its body keep it together. Inchor and blood cover most of those in melee with the beast but they are victorious over the thing. Nora is able to convert some of its life force over to her before it is completely destroyed by the group. Its tentacles lay still and the mandible no longer chews on Shield.

End of Combat

Tbblbitz dodges in again attempting to free her companions, her tiny blade whipping in and out like a weed whacker.
Stupid bug, let go of my friends. If I have to, I will slice you into bite sized bits.

It takes the diminutive Monkaladin several seconds to realize that the creature has stopped moving. With a kick, she growls at it once more before stopping and flying up to check on Shield.

Wood man, you ok? That bug was nasty. You need some glue to get fixed?

"Damage sustained within acceptable parameters. Do you possess appropriate adhesives? If so, please turn them in to the nearest requisitions officer for rationing use."

Tbblbitz laughs at Shield's robotic response:
You always were a funny one Wood Man. Lets see who has some healing for you.

With that, Tbblbitz flies up and calls to the others:
Anyone got some glue for Wood Man? The big bug seems to have chipped him pretty bad.

Do constructs get healed by Positive Energy?

No clue. This is the Construct rule for healing:

Cannot heal damage on its own, but often can be repaired via exposure to a certain kind of effect (see the creature's description for details) or through the use of the Craft Construct feat. Constructs can also be healed through spells such as make whole. A construct with the fast healing special quality still benefits from that quality.

Guess we will have to wait for Wolfie to give us a ruling on this one.

Nora lands lightly beside the giant crab as it finally succumbs to it's injuries. She looks at it's still form and lets out a heavy sigh. "Damn rock better have been worth it." She mutters to herself as she searches for a way to reach the stone embedded in the creature.

Eina winces as the wound in her side makes itself known. She looks around as she moves out form the pile of meat and metal that was doing its best to shred them a moment ago.

"Anyone else hurt?" She asks.

Tbblbitz looks down at her side and realizes that one leg is fairly well clawed up. So much so that she would probably have a tough time walking were she not flying most the time.

I could use some healing if you got something. I can heal, but my power is fairly weak.

"And mine is spent." Eina sighs.

"Fortunately, I have these." She says as she pulls out four vials filled with a sparkling, blue liquid.

Four Potions CLW up for grabs. Eina will wait until the others have grabbed what they need.

Decr approaches the two injured living allies and brings forth some of his power.

"You should save those for a more immediate need. Here."

He casts Cure Light Wounds on both Tbbl and Eina, easing a bit of their pain.

CLW Tbbl: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
CLW Eina: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Ibrox returns Wolf's black-handled dagger and looks around the area.

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24

Elaina looks up and smiles ad Decr, showing off the dragon's fangs.

"Thanks! That helps a lot."

Tbblbitz tries to flex her leg as the feeling flows back into it. Although not fully healed, it definitely feels better and is most likely useable, should she need to walk for some reason.

Thanks Gorilla Man. Much better. I can also do some healing, although not that much at this point. Anyone need a little more boost?

Have 5 Lay on hands if anyone needs them. Only 1d6 each though.

Constructs are only repaired by a few specific spells and effects.

Hmmm, looks like we need to either get a Make Whole wand, of have someone get it as a spell. I assume that Nora will eventually go Sorcerer or Oracle based upon her Charisma, but I am not sure if we have another full caster, divine or arcane.

I was planning on eventually investing heavily in UMD, maybe even taking Additional Traits in order to buff it some and have it work off my intelligence so I could handle my own healing.

Shield, you just a wood golem or are going for the warforge aspect? This needs to be answered before we talk about healing him with cure spells. Then again I know how to heal him other ways.

Nora you land near Shield as he picks himself free from the tentacles, touching them you find your hand going numb.

Ibrox and everyone can see that most of the sand is still around. Nothing moves really, no wind and no animals except those brought with you.

"Thank you Ibrox." He says as the dagger is returned. "Shield return for maintenance." He says as he pulls out a different book from his satchel.

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (6) + 12 = 18

Tbblbitz is much too concerned about chatting with her friends, including those who do not yet seem to know her, to pay attention to much.

Perception: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (19) + 17 = 36

"Oh gods, there are more of them... tiny mind you, but this beach is littered with these crab things." Nora sighs in dismay.

Perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29

"They seem more concerned with fighting each-other. We might want to avoid the coast, though."

Even so, Decr goes to collect his now non-magical (but still shiny and abnormally round) stones, just in case.

I had built him as a straight up golem. I would have dug up a warforged conversion otherwise

Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

The golem immediately plods over patiently and stands in front of Wolf.

"The female is reporting more potential hostiles, would you like me to engage them first?"

"Unless they become a threat or they're tied to our quest, then I say we let the buggers fight amongst themselves." Eina says as she stands up.

"Where to from here?"

Sounds good Shield, this works fine.

"No, those are pointless in destroying I am sure there are many more in the water. Stand here and let me heal you." He says calmly. He then begins to shoot him with ray of frost, over and over again. Healing him on average 1 point per 3 rounds. Taking him about 8 minutes to heal Shield fully. Then while he is at it spends another 2 minutes to give him some temporary hit points, giving him 7.

"Nora did you find where the line went to, did you say something about a gem?" He asks as continues to blast the golem with cold rays.

"Th' line ended 'ere. Digging uncovered th' crab."

Tbblbitz continues to flit about:
No line on the other side. Big glowing gem was in the metal bug. No clue what it is for.

"Are you sure of that Ibrox, why don't you double check that. Tbblbitz, would you or someone else please acquire this gem for me, it might shed some like on the monstrosity we just took down." Wolf casually says as the frosty rays continue to pour out over the golem.

Tbblbitz flies down and looks at the gem to determine if she can remove/carry it, and if it appears to be trapped.

Perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (19) + 15 = 34

It is not trapped, it looks like it will require a bit of strength to pluck it from the hide of the creature and then there are all those tentacles that are in the way, not moving but still possibly dangerous.

Silently, Shield shakes off the frost that coats him and reaches into the mass of tentacles without concern for the danger involved. He fastens his grip upon the stone and yanks, hard.

Strength Check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Strength Check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
Strength Check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Tbblbitz begins the cheer Shield on with what sounds like an elementary school cheer squad, and not a very good one.
Shield can do it, yes he can.
Shield can do it, gem of sand.
Pull the stone from corpse of bug.
Pull it free and get a hug.

"Your enthusiasm is noted, small one," the golem rumbled, idly tearing a few of the tentacles out of the way.
