Dragon's Demand (Inactive)

Game Master David_Bross

The staff easily comes free as you yank it out and the floor continues to close. After half a minute the floor is back to its original position. What do our heroes do?

After the trap floor had closed up, Cassandra holds forth the lighted dagger, going past the walls and floor to check for any other potential traps.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Cassandra sees no traps.

Nat pokes at the floor dubiously with the butt end of her lance. "Think it's going to open again if we go through?"

"It had better not, or the one who set it up is going to find an arrow through his privates."

Nátulcien pokes at the floor and nothing occurs. Let me know when one of you enters the room again

I'll go through and open the door if possible.

As soon as Ronaef enter the same voice booms “Please close the door before proceeding with the pass phrase.” You find the door to be locked. What do you do the following round

"This is aurochs pu-du. Let's bash the door down."

I find something to hold onto or jam my staff diagonally against corner of the floor and the side wall.

Ronaef finds the room very bare, but goes to a corner and braces his staff awaiting the pit opening again. What do you do the next round?

"Bash? Braggom Bash!"

Braggom begins to damage the door in front of him with his sword...

power attack and damage: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 172d6 + 7 ⇒ (1, 5) + 7 = 13

Braggom bashes the lock off the door with one swing of his sword. Let me know what Ronaef and Braggom (and any others) do the following round)

"Braggom break lock. Braggom go room."

Braggom will go into the now unlocked room.

Cassandra will concentrate on where the voice came from.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Nat will direct Demii to follow Braggom into the next room through the broken door.

Braggom opens the door and goes into the following room. Nátulcien Ar-Feiniel follows on Demii. Cassandra looks around the room for where the voice came up and comes up empty Knowledge: Arcana or Spellcraft.

Still need to know what the others do that round.

Ronaef was holding on for dear life.. well he thought so... has the other door been smashed too?

If that is resolved I follow Braggom through to the room beyond.[

Ronaef bends his mind to figuring mystery of the voice

Kn Arcana: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

"Ser Ronaef, any luck in finding the origin of the voice? I'm to say i can't determine it."

Cassandra keeps looking for the origin of the voice, not finding it, with Marcellino watching her back. Ronaef joins Braggom and Nát on the far side in the next room as he is puzzled to the origin as well. As they get through the door the floor once again gives way.

In the room Ronaef, Braggom and Nát see a single iron lever protrudes from the wall next to the door in this otherwise empty chamber’s west wall. To the east, a ten-foot-wide hallway curves to the north. Once you enter a four-armed metal creature whirs to life at the far edge of the room and squeaks in a tiny voice "“Please present the crest for passage.” There is a tiny metallic object floating next to him.

Braggom moves up to the creature.

"Here crest"

power attack and damage: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 92d6 + 7 ⇒ (4, 3) + 7 = 14

Ronaef enters the room and steps to the side to avoid Braggoms violence and casts Ray of Frost

ROF Creature Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 1 - 4 = 51d3 ⇒ 2

Initiative order then?

Init: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

"The voice is coming from there huh. If it "detects" us, i'd wager any trouble comes from it too."

That was rather violent.

The Creature adopts a defensive stance as Braggom walks up to it and raises his sword. It nimbly dodges out of the way of the strike while bringing its owns arms down on Braggom. Ronaef's ray of frost also misses the creature.

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Damage: 1d4 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Bold may post, looks like Cassandra and Marcellino are on the far side of a pit at the moment. Knowledge Arcana to identify the creature.
Cassandra Hanata
Ronaef Fired a poorly aimed ray of frost at the creature.
Creature Slammed his fists into Braggom when he approached.
Braggom Attacked missing wide of the metal creature
Nátulcien Ar-Feiniel
Marcellino Wintrish

That was rather violent.

Players' actions are not 100% predictable ;)

Cassandra wants to jump over the pit.
However, Nat's in the way, so is it possible to jump from Marcellino's square as part of the movement incorporated into the run-jump?

Nat is about to move anyway.

Seeing Baggrom take a hit, Nat casts a spell of healing as she spurs Demii forward to the attack!

Casting CLW, and as a free action directing Demii to charge. After Demii attacks, touching Baggrom to deliver the CLW.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Demii charge: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 2 = 6

Demii charges forward at his companion's command, but his teeth close on thin air as the metal beast dodges out of the way.

He will attempt an acrobatics check to get over the hole.

1d20 ⇒ 3

Demii swipes wide as Nat heals Braggom. Marcellino gets a running start to get to his companions as he winds up in the bottom of the pit.
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

The creature continues to swipe at Braggom, but misses him.
Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Bold may post.
Cassandra Hanata
Ronaef
Creature Missed Braggom
Braggom
Nátulcien Ar-Feiniel
Marcellino Wintrish

Ronaef steps around so that he can engage the creature from the other side and flank it with Braggom.

I shall attempt to either aid Braggoms attack or if that is not possible to hinder it's attacks on Braggom.

Aid Another: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (5) + 0 = 5

Cassandra takes some distance and makes a running jump.
"Here i come."
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26

power attack and damage: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 232d6 + 7 ⇒ (6, 2) + 7 = 15
critical confirmation and critical damage: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 182d6 + 7 ⇒ (1, 1) + 7 = 9

The creature reels from Braggom's strike with Ronaef's help as Cassandra easily jumps over the pit. Demi spurs back as oil sprays onto him, and Marcellino stands and brushes himself off as he begins to try to climb out of the pit. Unsuccessfully, unfortunately.

The creature whirs as small levers and cogs begin realigning themselves back into place as it once again swings at Braggom, narrowly missing the softest part of Braggom's skull as it does so.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Damage: 1d4 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Climb Check: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (8) - 1 = 7

Aid other Braggom Defence give Braggom +2 AC: 1d20 ⇒ 6

Cassandra extends her hand down to Marcellino to help him get out.
STr to aid: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Braggom rages. HP 6/17

Braggom takes another mighty swing, "Die, Machine!"
RAGE and power attack and damage: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 232d6 + 10 ⇒ (5, 3) + 10 = 18

At Nat's command, Demii attacks! Skillfully keeping her balance on the back of the beast, Nat also draws her club and tries to smash the thing!

Claw1, damage: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 31d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Claw2, damage: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 91d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Bite, damage: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 181d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Ride check: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

Nat club attack, damage: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 141d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Between Braggom, Demii, and Nátulcien's strikes the creature is brought down. As it falls, you guys hear the floor finish closing ontop of Marcellino.

You might want to scroll up to the description of the room from earlier

"Come on, grab my hand."
Looking briefly back at the other 3 she requests more aid to pull Marcellino out.

Aid str to climb: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15

I didnt get to roll to see if I got out of the hole. I guess the DM can just bot me

Ronaef pulls the lever

I think the trap door closed with Marcellino underneath them in the pit.

Nat leads Demii back into the other room to see if she can trigger the voice again, which seems to lead to the trap doors opening.

The pit opens.

Does Nat need a check to step back out of the room before it opens?

Unless you and Ronaef acted simultaneously it wouldn't be necessary. If you feel you did, go ahead and make a reflex save :).

Demii reflex save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Demii jumps back through the doorway as he feels the floor about to give way under his feet. Nat, on his back, yelps in surprise, but when she sees what occurred, leans over and scratches him behind the ears.

"You got Marcy? Good. Me explore tunnel."

Ronaef quickly moves to follow Braggom so that he can aid him with ihs Darkvision and Perceptivenessness
