Eina |
"How do we know that it's not a trap?"
Eina inspects the blade of her sword as she asks the question. It was a tough sword, but so was the skin on those gargoyles.
"Anyway, I say we move on once Phurs and... the little guy that talks too fast get back."
Eina |
I think they intended for us to follow at about 60ft. If not, hopefully they can clarify the situation.
Phurs |
Right now i believe Filk is 60 feet ahead of the group up the path and I'm 30 feet behind him and I've stopped waiting for the group but still watching, listening and smelling for danger!
If Filk wants to go another 30 feet out I scored a good stealth roll and can watch too see if he see's anything! And I thought Gerhard was gonna whip up another one of his mutagen potions.
Eina |
Staying thirty feet behind Phurs.
Gerhard Rönn |
I don't need to go brew another mutagen if everyone wants to press on. I have other tricks and currently I have at least 25 minutes on my current one. So let's get into another fight quickly.
Gerhard follows behind Eina.
Filk |
Yup, I will stay 60 feet ahead, as that is half my speed to run back and report and then can be back 60' again. I think it helps being stealthy when you blur and turn invisible ;p Do I need to make another stealth / perception roll?
Wolf - Martikio |
Still pawing through his book, but with Nora, Gerhard and Eina.
Filk |
Filk comes running full bore from down the path and screeches to a halt in front of the party (having gathered Phurs on the way).
"GuysGuysGuys! ByOneOfThoseColumnsUpThereIsADeadBodyItLooksLikeAMummy! WhatShouldWeDo?"
Phurs |
"Yep we should investigate," Phurs states "but lets be careful"
Body is on the left or right side of the path, how far apart are the pillars from one another, and how wide is the path?
Gerhard Rönn |
Gerhard backs off, sits down and takes out his alchemist's lab. 1 minute later, he takes a swig from his newly prepared extract of Deathwatch (lasts an hour, 30 ft cone that allows me to detect whether something is dead, dying, wounded, healthy, undead or none of the above). He moves within 30 feat of the body.
Phurs |
Slowly and stealthfully approaches the body to investigate it motioning for everyone to stay clear. Watches for any sign of trouble.
stealth: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (5) + 19 = 24
perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
Eina |
"That's a relief."
Eina keeps her sword out, wary of any more surprises.
Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11
DM Greg |
Instead of rotting, it appears that the body has dried. there are large portions of the body missing, not eaten or cut away, but simply gone.
There is little of value on the man's body aside from a small triangular piece of green stone bearing an arcane symbols grasped tightly in his right hand
DM Greg |
Init Phurs: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31
Init Eina: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
Init Filk: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
Init Gerhard: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Init Nora: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Init Wolf: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Init E.S: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
So Phurs concentrated on the body doesn't see anything.
Place yourselves on the map
Surprise Round
Theses Creatures (link) descend from the walls they are currently 10ft up. they simply walk down on the sharp wall surface
Round 1
Phurs only !
Eina |
Put Eina at K14 please.
"I guess it's silly to hope that these bugs only want to borrow some sugar for a cake, right?"
Phurs |
Phurs not taking any chances decides that something dead is just as easily investigated as something alive.
Shortbow attack with backstab vrs es6: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 281d6 ⇒ 33d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 5) = 11
Nora Brim |
Did we come upon the body from the north or south according to the battle map? Nora would be at K7 if we came from the top or K20 if we came from the bottom.
Bugs? I really do hate this island. Nora quips as she pulls out her crossbow, firing at one of the bugs near Eina.
Going for Bug ES8
Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27
damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
Wolf - Martikio |
Wolf would be near Nora and Eina. Though with Eina moving ahead, he would be by Nora still.
Wolf will delay to see how the group handles the bugs for the first round. Then act accordingly.
Filk |
Feeling intense pride at finding the body and intently listening to Gerhard as he examines the body, Filk literally jumps when the strange creatures descend upon them. His hand flies to the hilt of his rapier.
Filk will be in K13
Phurs |
hey wait did i just roll a 20? I didn't even see that does that mean I get the chance of a critical hit if so.
Confirm Critical on shortbow attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 221d6 ⇒ 2
Eina |
Bows have a 3x modifier, I believe. I think you can roll another d6 there Phurs.
Phurs |
oops thanks Eina LOL can ya tell I don't get many crits
2nd bonus die on confirmed crit: 1d6 ⇒ 5
so dice rolls are [3,2,5] = 10 and [4,2,5] = 11 for the sneak attack, Nice 21 point hit
DM Greg |
Round 1
Phurs draw his short and and with an amazing shot wounds a creature.

Round 1 Bottom
Rest of Heroes Go !
Eina |
"Fall back, find a bottleneck to help whittle away their numbers."
Eina's wings spread as she sets her feet for a jump.
Fly vs. DC 20: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11
Her wings beat down, but they don't catch the air like they should have.
"Oh! C'mon! I'm not that heavy!"
Frustrated, she sheathes her sword and feels for the bow between her wings.
move to try to take off and get up to the bugs, another move to sheathe her sword.
Gerhard Rönn |
"Filk, I'm going to need you to move out of the way!
Filk moves before him. I need to drink a extract, but if I do it where I am, it will provoke.
If Filk moves out of the way, he will shift into the vacated square, reaching into his coat for a small vial, and drink an extract of Enlarge Person. Otherwise, he shifts down one and provokes to drink the extract.
Also, is my mutagen still active? I don't think it has been too long between fights.
Filk |
"OkieDokieBuddy!"
Filk shifts to K16 as fast as a lightning bolt. Just as fast, he whips out his ocarina and begins to huff and puff and blow a mighty tune!
(starting bardic performance to inspire courage +1)
Wolf - Martikio |
Wolf makes sure there is no threats adjacent to him. He will move up to K16. He will castaway scorching ray at the closest 'inscect'. #6
ranged touch attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15 fire damage: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 2, 3) = 11
K planes check: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 22
With a few bounds forward Wolf circles his hands around themselves, with a few intriqute moves and a harsh word in Draconic he forms flames in his hands. Though the flames dont stay there long, the flame then turns into a ray and shoots forth at one of the strange things that are attacking his allies.
DM Greg |

Round 2 Bottom
All Heroes go !
Gerhard Rönn |
So right now I am large tall, which makes them in my threatened range (or at least some of them)
Claw AoO on ES6: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 271d8 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
Bite on ES6: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 282d6 + 6 ⇒ (6, 3) + 6 = 15
Claw on ES6: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 261d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
Claw on ES6: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 111d8 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
Free Action - Heal 5. 20 left.
If ES6 dies before I am finished, go after ES3
Filk |
"WhatAreTheseThings!!?"
Relevant Knowledge: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
I want to know what these are, notably their HD, so I can decide if I want to use sleep or not...
Filk |
well, let's give it a try anyways!
Filk grabs his ocarina and plays a sad, sweet song. His eyes begin to slightly glow and the tune sweeps over the creatures.
Casting sleep on as many as I can I suppose, up to 4HD of creatures. DC 17 will save
