DoubleGold's PFS Feast of Ravenmore (Inactive)

Game Master DoubleGold

The hereoes quickly take care of the last cultist before he warns any others, and without making too much noise either. It is a good thing the gunslinger didn't fire here, they'd hear that.

They all move up to the center of the maze. It is starting to get dark, but and the cultists practice the ritual, you all see the Mayor turn around and he is not wearing a mask, but is performing the ritual with the cultists. He turns around, I was kidnapped, is that what they told you? A good way to get you to come here. Look, why don't you all lay down your weapons and joing the cult?
The cultists speak as there are eight of them. Join us.
All of the cultists sit at the edges of the corn praying at the ground, none of them have their weapons in their hands, while the Mayor and his brother do. One of the cultist tries to grab his weapon to attack the heroes. Don't yelled the mayor, Sit there and pray to Ghlaunder.

They Mayor goes first he will cast sanctuary on himself. All who attack the Mayor must make a will save dc 14 or lose the action

I ain' proud, but I am gon' enjoy dis.

Dunia calls forth chill energy to suffuse her lash once more and muscles through to attack the mayor's brother.

Lash: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
Damage: 1d8 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (5) + 7 + (6) = 18
[ooc]DC 14 Fort Save or take 1 Str damage (unless the brother is secretly not a living target)

Get 'em, lol

Yoshi steps up to the brother and tries to take him to the ground.

"Bad men." mutters Yoshi.

trip, flurry: 1d20 + 14 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 14 - 2 = 25
followup stomp,prone: 1d20 + 11 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 4 = 27
NL damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
flurry#2: 1d20 + 11 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 11 + 4 = 24
NL damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Dunia lashes at the brother putting some good wounds across his arms.

Yoshi gives the brother a few puches but his punches don't land as deep as he thinks, he does manage to trip and stomp him as well. He has damage reduction of some kind. He is very hurt. He is not human Yoshi, he has 24+1d20 for his disguise check, which requires a very high perception. But physically touching him with your fist is a different story, Go ahead and give me religion if you have it there yoshi.
disguise: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (12) + 24 = 36 Galt is up.

No religion here sorry, but strikes are magical due to amulet.

Would the rest of know what they are if we make a check?

Knowledge (Religion): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23 If Dunia's check is relevant.

Sajna, having held off on shooting any of the cultists before, to avoid alerting the larger group now brings her musket to bare on the Mayor himself.
Will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Yet as she levels the sights at the evil man, she finds herself strangely compelled not to pull the trigger.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20 Will save

Seeing the gunslinger hesitate at attacking the major the warpriest activsates his good blessing, calling upon Rowdrosh, he is able to fight through the urge not to attack the mayor, the sling glowing with a holy radiance.

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4 sling
1d6 ⇒ 3 if evil

Uthraed casts gravity bow and gets ready to fire.

No religion here sorry, but strikes are magical due to amulet.

Yes, magical does make a difference, you almost killed him. In order to make a religion check, first you have to match your beat his disguise of 36 with a perception of 36 or higher or physically touch him with your hands, or wait till he is dead and he will automatically revert back to his original form.

As the mayor gets hit with the sling bullet. ouch, your false god, it hurts. yes, the Mayor does have an XE alignment, I'm not telling you what the X is, that'd ruin the fun.

The brother will swing at Dunia with his masterwork longsword. hit: 8 + 1d20 ⇒ 8 + (7) = 15 dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 but she seems to be too quick for him.

Round 2 The mayor summons fiendish giantspiders: 1d3 ⇒ 3
The mayor then orders his cultist. You, you wanted to do this now join the fight. and he joins the fight, one cultist joined the fight init: 2 + 1d20 ⇒ 2 + (19) = 21
Round 2 for the heroes, oh and Eli can still go for round 1.

edit: Eli still has to go in round 1, then the cultist will go, the eli cannot target the cultist since he did not join the fight until round 2, unless he wants to attack a cultist not involved in the fight, in which case he will risk activating all of them, the spiders were also not summoned until round 2, so they don't exist for him yet.

Assuming that Darvan is also able to go? Also, can the mayor specifically summon as a standard action? Otherwise, the spiders will arrive on his turn in Round 3, leaving opportunities for interruption...

If he is an outsider, his summons is probably a supernatural ability.
What is the brother doing? Did he get to his feet again?

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17 wILL

He attacks the leader again
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17

1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
1d6 ⇒ 1 evil

Oh, Eli did go, the fact that you posted before you had the Mayor's brother go, just messed me up a little, okay, so you did hit him again in round 2

Yes, I forgot to mention the Mayor summons as a full round action.

Alright Eli hits the mayor hard in round 2, Darvan has not gone yet in round 1 or 2, and the rest of you still have a round 2 to take. Being at the end I kind of forgot where we were at in battle. I will make concentration checks for the Mayor at the end of the round,
which he will probably fail.

Does the hit disrupt his casting?

Sajna again tries to focus on her intent to take down the Mayor of this evil town.
Will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
She glares at the evil creature, still unable to fire.

Sajna, get rid of the cultists or the brother shouts the warpriest.

Just to clarify, I read it as failing the will save to attack still uses up the attack action, is that correct?

Yoshi, standing next to the brother, continues to unload on him from his downed position.

flurry, prone: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 11 - 2 + 4 = 19
flurry, prone: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 11 - 2 + 4 = 16
damage1 (blunt, magic): 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
damage2(blunt, magic): 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

"You Be Staying STill" he commands.

Dunia calls on the spirits to wrap themselves around her in a protective Shield as she advances on the mayor, but his unholy protections hold strong.
Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
Lash: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 7 - 2 = 12
Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

This assumes that the mayor's brother is dead/unconscious after Yoshi's beating, but I'll go ahead and take the AoO if he's not

Round 1 (prior to the spider summoning)

Darvan advances on the mayor, but can't bring himself to attack. He does, however, order Sahba to attempt it.
Free action: Order Sahba to attack
Move action: As indicated on map
Standard action: Attack mayor
Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Round 2 (also prior to the spider summoning)

Darvan is finally able to overcome the mayor's sanctuary as his scimitar flashes in the firelight.
Standard action: Attack mayor
Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Attack (+1 Scimitar, Power Attack, Flanking): 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 7 - 1 + 2 = 17
Damage (+1 Scimitar, Power Attack): 1d6 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 5 + 2 = 11

Round 1
Sahba rushes in and flanks the mayor, true to form.

Move action: As indicated on map
Standard action: Attack mayor
Will Save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14
Attack (Talon, Flank): 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 2 = 15
Damage (Talon): 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Round 2
Sahba's talons and jaws continue to distract the mayor, though perhaps no more than that.

Full-round action: Attack mayor
Will Save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
Attack (Talon, Flank): 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 2 = 13
Damage (Talon): 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Attack (Talon, Flank): 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 2 = 9
Damage (Talon): 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Attack (Bite, Flank): 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 2 = 7
Damage (Bite): 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Just to clarify, I read it as failing the will save to attack still uses up the attack action, is that correct?

That is how I think the spell works

The brother is taken down.

The Mayor is damaged badly and cannot hold onto concentration with a dinosaur scratching him and Darvan slashing him. To give you an idea of what hit and what missed, ac 14
Yes, failing the will save uses up your action.

The cultist moves to eli to attack him hit: 0 + 1d20 ⇒ 0 + (12) = 12

Galt is up We have one cultist in the fight and one very hurt Mayor.

Get rid of this cultist so that I can focus on the mayor states the warpriest.

Uthraed, Listening to E'li aims at the cultists and fires his bow.

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12
Damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (3, 4) + 2 = 9

Galt shoots the cultist dead. The Mayor casts gaseous form on himself and flys away or as far away as he will get in that round. It does provoke from the dinosaur. except it now has damage reduction of 10 to magic and is immune to crits, the dinosaur can't do anything to it.

The cultists see the Mayor flying away and the scream Come back but they continue the ritual and bother you know more.

Heroes are up round 3 Oviously the Mayor is still in sight, but he will try to run through the maze since he can easily go through the bushes and you can't

With a worldess snarl, Dunia flings herself across the circle, her lash cracking as she tries in vain to defeat his unholy protections. Charging
Will Save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Ectoplasmic Lash: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 2 = 11
Magic Slashing: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Chucks the online dice roller in the microwave

Would he be able to attack the mayor with his magical sling?

Anyone can attack him, he just has DR 10/Magic

With the others defeated, Sajna must again try to overcome the mayor's spell.
Will Save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
As she stares at the gaseous form fleeing she yet again fails to pull the trigger.
Wow...well I feel really useful right now.

Yoshi dashes up to the departing mayor and hits him as hard as he can.

attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25
damage(magic): 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
"What are you being?" he asks in frustration.

Ooopse, Will save
will: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15

The mayor tries to escape, but Yoshi punches through his gasses, his body goes back. A creature pops out of the Mayor as the body dies and the cultists all gravel to the floor. Out pops a blightspawn The blightspawn is a cr 5 aberration for those who want to make the checks. You can all see it has wings but it will take a few seconds for its wings to work. I think I already know the answer to this, but does anyone wish to runaway from this combat? You all know you have the option of running away and not defeating this thing. If not I roll init and start the final round 1 of the game.

this abomination must be stopped does the sanctuary spell still function?

You all seein' what yo' evil bringin'? You jus' lucky we be here to take care o' dis nastiness.

Knowledge (Dungeoneering): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

"By the gods what is that abomination"
Know dungeneering : 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

-Posted with Wayfinder

The warpriest will activate his protection blessing

+1 to AC and +1 to saves

Yoshi spends a moment thinking about techniques that maybe helpful against this odd creature, and then decides to try and knock it out.

Uses martial mastery, and then knockout blow

KO blow: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21 <- do we have inspire or bless up? if so, add extra.
damage(magic): 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
Fort DC 17 or be knocked out

I think we're all happy to stay and fight, if you're waiting for confirmation

[oc] Yup, yup, let's fight [/ooc]

Looks like my post never posted but Sajna is ready to stay and fight, she'll move into the clearing to get a better shot at the blightspawn.

Most of you have taken your turn already, but I'm going to do the inits and then resolve them in the morning

init: 5 + 1d20 ⇒ 5 + (15) = 20Galt
init: 6 + 1d20 ⇒ 6 + (15) = 21Dunia
init: 4 + 1d20 ⇒ 4 + (1) = 5Darvan
init: 4 + 1d20 ⇒ 4 + (19) = 23Sajna
init: 2 + 1d20 ⇒ 2 + (10) = 12E'li
init: 3 + 1d20 ⇒ 3 + (11) = 14Yoshi
init: 8 + 1d20 ⇒ 8 + (15) = 23 enemy

Actually it is first, it will cast blur on itself as its action and fly high enough so that melee people have to climb up or jump up 5 feet high to reach it. If you did melee already you can recon or do something to gain 5 extra feet of height. If you already attacked, roll that miss chance for blur, it does not have sanctuary on. If you climb the corn it would be dc 20 to do so without knocking it over or do it quickly before it falls over do to your weight, otherwise 20 jump check gets you 5 feet higher where you can just barely slash at it with your blade over your head.

Also I saw most of you passed the knowledge check and knows a whole lot more about it.

Blightspawn CR 5
XP 1,600

diminish plants, gust of wind, hold monster (DC 17

Since Dunia has Combat Reflexes it looks like the blightspawn provoked two AoOs from her, one for casting Blur, and one for leaving her threatened space.

Dunia pulls a wand from her belt and drops it on the ground next to her, before readying herself to strike at the creature the next time it gets in reach. De wand is fo' Enlargin' us. I can't use it, but if one o' you got de know how, you spread it 'round as you like.

Yoshi also has combat reflexes...

So it looks like he managed to connect, even if it did fly, so hopefully a DC 17 Fort or be knocked out. Got a bit lucky with those rolls there.
