Dungeon Master S's "All for Immortality" Trilogy (Inactive)

Game Master Chris Marsh

Feel free to retcon healing before advancing.

The party makes their way ever deeper. They're reminded of their fateful trip to the top of Skyreach that time not so long ago. you arrive at a door that seems more a nuisance for Roakar than a barricade. Before he can knock it down (or Roos deftly opens it), you hear a magical message from a voice without source, "Ah, Roakar, Roos, Atum, Ignatious, and Hugo. I expected nothing less from you. Welcome, friends. We have much to discuss!” With no way to track the source of the voice, you continue on beyond the door. Beyond lies a much smaller series of halls leading to Patrons’ offices, meeting rooms, and several showy galleries. you know the trail to Suliji is warm as her violent displays of power leave their mark.

The final room is unlike anything you've seen before. Hundreds, likely thousands of swords, knives, and other blades of nearly every size and curvature adorn this gallery, which includes both cases and stands as well as fireplaces and comfortable chairs, as if also serving as an ostentatious lounge. Edged weapons even comprise the frames of three chandeliers that cast cheery, magically sustained light throughout the hall.

In the room stands Suliji Peshar. It seems she has cornered one of the Patrons, a Chelish businessman in richly a embroidered jacket. He now slouches in a chair in a daze.

She looks up at you and smiles, "You are here! Good! Finally we can rid Golarion of these petty and evil shadows of the once great Aspis. We can return it to a better time! Hugo, I have respect for the Society. I have even given aid to the Society, and I desire to work with the Society in the future!"

She looks at each of you in turn, "Atum! You must know that I have admiration and respect for the sages as a fellow Garundi scholar of antiquities, and I would even like to talk with Tahonikepsu for mutual benefit!"

She continues, "Ignatious, given time you would be SHOCKED at the violence they plan against Mendev, to hobble the good work done in the Crusade!"

She gives a warm smile to Roos, "Before me stands one of the worst slavers in the Mwangi! Think of what a weaker Aspis Consortium would mean for combating slavery in the Inner Sea region! "

For the moment, it's peaceful, as she awaits your reaction...

Atum stares down the treacherous half-orc. "I doubt Tahonikepsu is naive enough to fall for your deceptions and certainly her wisdom is far beyond your own, as evidenced by this maniacal scheme you've dreamed up. No, I do not think she would trust you and neither do I."

"You may find that little that the Pathfinder Society OR the Aspis Consortium does or plans is shocking, dear lady." he returns, remaining unharmed, placing a calming hand on Roakar's shoulder as if asking that he contain his rage for just a while more. "Still, I would know what these plans are. And yours, to be honest. Who are you, and why have you done this? What are your intentions with that man?" pointing at the Chelish man slouched in the chair.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22
DM Star Reroll: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (17) + 14 = 31

Roos looks at the lady in a puzzled manner and then takes a swig from his flask...

SM: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (16) + 20 = 36

"What is all this now...?"

Hugo listens intently to the woman as she elaborates on her so called admiration of the Society.

"While your honeyed words speak highly of our Society, to which we certainly agree, your comments seem empty of commitment on your part. We in the temple of the Keeper of the First Vault believe only that which can be bound by contract and verified by mutually trusted third party audits. Your past actions have not demonstrated consistency. Why should we trust you now? ."

SM : 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34 lol - still probably not enough for this silver tongued mistress .

Hugo also looks to the man and many blades for signs of treachery

Perception : 1d20 + 28 ⇒ (15) + 28 = 43

None of you get any hunches about her motivations, nor any insight into her words.

Suliji rolls her neck before answering. “I am Suliji Peshar, daughter of a cactus farmer, student of antiquities, ally of the Society, and thorn in the Consortium’s side. This is the esteemed Iaovin Ratarion, a Patron of the Aspis Consortium. He cleans up nicely, so it is easy to overlook the blood of the innocent upon his hands. To his credit, though, he has delegated the lion’s share of atrocities to his agents abroad.”

Suliji offers a conciliatory shrug. “It is true that among my actions to assist the Society, I have dealt them harm as well. After all, there was no way to uncover the information I leaked to you about your biggest enemies within the Consortium without at least token participation on my part. Then again, you’ve thwarted a few of my side plans recently as well—most impressively, I might add. I am inclined to take that more as a token that you are worthy allies than an excuse for umbrage. The Aspis have harmed the Society, the Society has harmed the Aspis, and they both have harmed me. We’re in a cycle that has continued for decades and will persist for centuries so long as the shadowy leaders continue to pit their pawns against one another. If you want to see an end to the tragedy, we must break that cycle by breaking the leaders.” Suliji waves a hand consolingly. “I don’t mean the Decemvirate, though I suppose I’m open to discussion if you insist. I mean the Patrons.”

"Apologies if we ruined some of your plans. Don't take it personal. You haven't been the only one whose plans we ruined. Anywho I am sure we did it out of survival. But now you speak of us as Allies and that intrigues me-us. And against the Aspis Consortium... well I am sure we can discuss this further if you get to why we should... other than they are Aspis."

Just to be clear, while I might use words like "we" or "us", I am only intending to speak for myself here, not shoot down anyone else's comments.

"I'm willing to listen, and talk, although I will not condone murder, even of an Aspis Consortium Patron, if that is the cost for you to "break the cycle". More death, pain, and suffering will simply not make anything better, but it will make us, . . . all of us just as bad as those we oppose."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (15) + 27 = 42

"Would you consider turning these patrons over to my our care, to be delivered to the Pathfinder Society for justice?"

Also, after (and depending on), her answers, I might also ask

"You mentioned earlier that you have a desire to work for the Society in the future. You have also implied strongly that you have already helped the Society in many ways. I'd like to know how that is? How have you helped? And would you consider if we,. . . offered you a Field Commission? That is, if we agree, find you worthy, and find your answers satisfactory. Can you walk the more difficult road after having spent so long on the easy one?"

She answers Roos matter-of-factly, “My goals are straightforward. Break apart the Consortium’s monopoly, shatter its strength, and carve a niche for my own. I appreciate wealth and power, yet I don’t have the stomach for much more violence. You can continue uncovering relics without Aspis interference, and I can retire out of the way to a prosperous shipping company along eastern Garund. I’ll be happy to send any tips your way if I see something I think would interest you. I’m not up to becoming a field agent, but if the Society can produce agents as impressive as you, I suppose I would be a fool not to agree to act as a contact and ally. Even if the Consortium bore a grudge for that, I’d doubt they would have the nerve to pursue it. ”

To Ignatious, despite the eloquence of his words " You are in the heart of their operation with a dagger to their throat. You can give this conflict a merciful death by eliminating some of the most depraved souls you’ll likely ever meet, or you can let these battles continue, condemning hundreds more to die. Did someone ask you to stay your blade, or did they ask you to recognize an opportunity and seize it?”

Her gaze steels, "ENOUGH! Make your choice. Make your choice now!"

I'm going to roll initiative, but this is ONLY to keep things efficient. You need to choose your path. If you side with her, we're not in initiative. If you DON'T side with her, then take your actions.

Atum steps into the room and takes a deep breath in as his form once again grows to incredible height. "I have had enough of your talk." He spits the word as a curse. "You say you are stopping the violence but all you have done is increased it tenfold. We have another choice now and that is this: extend our hand to the Consortium by killing you, the real villain, rather than taking advantage and striking them down only to let you and your chaos run free. For me, the choice is easy."

Atum advances into the room, moving quickly with his large size, and levels his weapon at Suliji. "Stand down and leave the Patrons be."

Swift to turn large then two moves across the room. FYI she is within Atum's 20' threatened zone if she tries to do anything. And Atum has Improved Unarmed Strike so no dead spots immediately around him.

The tense situation finally devolves into a show of force. Atum's form is formidable indeed!

"You should not have done that!" As she speaks a pair of statues, which you thought were merely to hold blades come alive, practically teeming with sharpened edges, they look far more dangerous than a normal golem. Indeed they stretch themselves into a wall of spinning blades! The walls are 5' high, and the ceiling is plenty more than that.

Close by, a singular blade of epic forging also animates! It flies up a bit streaks towards Ignatious! ATK: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (3) + 23 = 26 and cuts him or DMG: 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (6) + 14 = 20

Round 1:
Atum: Big and move
Suliji: ATK!
Roos: Go
Roakar: Go
Hugo: Go
Ignatious: Go

"Enough of your treachery!" Atum bellows as he swings his weapon at Suliji.

+3 impact adamantine bec de corbin: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 21
damage: 3d8 + 27 ⇒ (4, 8, 3) + 27 = 42

+3 impact adamantine bec de corbin: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
damage: 3d8 + 27 ⇒ (3, 2, 2) + 27 = 34

@Atum, the sword drew a movement AoO from you.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Unless something dramatically changes by then

I'll 5ft step both back and up, taking to the air, and request a divine smiting, drawing my rod in one hand as I do.

Fireball, Refl DC 17 Half: 15d6 + 1 ⇒ (5, 2, 5, 2, 1, 4, 1, 3, 2, 3, 6, 1, 1, 5, 5) + 1 = 47

Roakar, unconcerned with anything else, moves in to

Attack 1 - +4 lucerne hammer, R, RA, PA: 1d20 + 28 ⇒ (20) + 28 = 48 <Possible Crit>
Attack 1 - +4 lucerne hammer, R, RA, PA: 1d20 + 28 ⇒ (1) + 28 = 29 <NO CRIT>
Damage 1 - +4 lucerne hammer, R, PA: 1d12 + 29 + 2d6 ⇒ (11) + 29 + (5, 2) = 47
Vicious damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Attack 2 - +4 lucerne hammer, R, RA, PA: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (9) + 23 = 32
Damage 2 - +4 lucerne hammer, R, PA: 1d12 + 29 + 2d6 ⇒ (9) + 29 + (2, 2) = 42
Vicious damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Attack 3 - +4 lucerne hammer, R, RA, PA: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (5) + 18 = 23
Damage 3 - +4 lucerne hammer, R, PA: 1d12 + 29 + 2d6 ⇒ (12) + 29 + (2, 1) = 44
Vicious damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Refl DC 17 (vs Fireball): 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (1) + 16 = 17 <FAILS!!!>

Atum will not use his AoO on the sword, saving it in case he needs it on Suliji.

Well, this may have ended better, but without safeguards and independent audits in place, conflict was nigh inevitable.

Also, was Atum healed up or just old status line? I think Iggy used at least one channel and Hugo could have wanded him up before this combat.

Hugo will attempt to dimensional hop past the spinning blades (move) and summon his second Inevitable for the day (std).

Attack this woman! Let me know if you see any other hiding creatures.

Zelekhut Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (18) + 17 = 35
for dmg, electric: 2d6 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (5, 2) + 7 + (6) = 20
trip Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (2) + 17 = 19 vs CMD

Zelekhut Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (3) + 17 = 20
for dmg, electric: 2d6 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (4, 6) + 7 + (4) = 21
trip Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (16) + 17 = 33 vs CMD

The zelekhut is flying 5' up, so not blocking path. It also has truesight. Z=AC24/115HP+DR10/Chaotic+SR20

Oh, I got distracted traveling and didn't update. Channel takes him to 58, then some clw charges:
clw: 17d8 + 17 ⇒ (2, 5, 6, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1, 4, 3, 5, 1, 2, 8, 7, 1, 5) + 17 = 74
Full HP.

Hugo's summoned ally manages to lash Suliji once, but can't drag her down.

Ignatious drops a powerful fireball on the wall of blades. They try to twist and contort around the fingers of flame:

Black REF: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Red REF: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

But their blades burn and twist in the heat

Roakar's fury undoes the red wall of blades. As the magic holding it together shatters, so to do the blades! They fly out far enough that both Roakar and Atum are in the blast. REF DC 18 to take half of DMG: 12d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 6, 4, 2, 3, 3, 3, 5, 4, 5, 4) = 48

Atum manages to get but a single hit on the half-orc!

Round 1:
Atum: Big and move
Suliji: ATK!
Roos: Go
Roakar: Kill
Hugo: ATK w/summon
Ignatious: Fireball

Round 2:
Atum: ATK!
Suliji: TBD
Roos: TBD
Roakar: TBD
Hugo: TBD
Ignatious: TBD

I had healed every 21 HP earlier, but wqsnt sure if anyone needed more. Probably too late now, butI still have plenty of free healing available.

I noted that you guys could have healed up. If not, I meant to and will allow it retconned.

"Well then... I guess we... fight..." Roos says to no one in particular and then casts haste to end the fight as fast as possible...

Roos makes the Pathfinders fight with alacrity while Suliji evaluates her situation.

That's when you realize the horror of the situation, about half of Suliji's wounds appear on the Patron! He whimpers in agony... You can see that he shares whatever wounds she takes!

The remaining wall of blades bends and stretches itself into a different wall: The blades glow with hunger as they try to vivisect Roakar and Roos: REF DC 18 to take half of DMG: 15d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 3, 1, 5, 1, 2, 5, 6, 5, 5, 3, 5, 5, 1) = 52

Meanwhile the animated avenger continues it's harassment of Ignatious:
Slash: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (4) + 23 = 27 for DMG: 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (6) + 14 = 20
Hack: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (5) + 18 = 23 for DMG: 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 22
Cut: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26 for DMG: 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19

Suliji herself moves with practiced speed. Numerous magical effects make the air around her shimmer and dance. She tries to cast a complex but short spell without dropping her guard Concentration: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (1) + 25 = 26, but she blunders the spell! Fortunately for her it was a very short spell, so she closes distance with Atum (drawing from the Xlekhut and Atum) and tries to slash with her impressive falcata!
ATK: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (18) + 24 = 42 THREAT
Confirm: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (7) + 24 = 31 for DMG: 2d8 + 18 + 2d6 ⇒ (5, 5) + 18 + (3, 6) = 37

Round 2:
Atum: ATK!
Suliji: ATK!
Roos: Go
Roakar: Go
Hugo: Go
Ignatious: Go

By short spell, do you mean swift? I know it's not in my best interest, but I should point out that swift/immediate spells don't provoke so she didn't need that concentration check. I'll wait and see how that changes things before acting.

You sir are correct, and I had forgotten about that. My typical MO is not to go back after a mistake. I won't make that one again. Thank you EF though.

Hugo will call on Abadar for some divine interference on her attack.

sacrifice level 1 spell to force reroll of the initial threat on Atum.

AOO Zelekhut Lawful Chain, haste: 1d20 + 17 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 17 + 1 = 30
for dmg, electric: 2d6 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (1, 5) + 7 + (4) = 17
trip Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 17 + 1 = 34 vs CMD
Z=AC24/115HP+DR10/Chaotic+SR20

About how far are we from where we left Mr. Khayn?

Hugo decides the best course is to get the patron away from Suliji.

He will try to dash to his side and looks for 3 rings on the man's hands.
perception: 1d20 + 28 ⇒ (17) + 28 = 45

Hugo will ask the bound man a quick question before casting a Dimdoor spell. To Mr. Khayn? Yes or No, quickly!

Intent it to take the man as a willing traveler via Dimdoor - at least 100' away...if he agrees, then Hugo will go to the room with Mr. Khayn. If not, then to some other secluded place with no Aspis.

The flying outsider will slide a bit to the east and try at the half-orc again (flank and haste).

Zelekhut Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 17 + 1 + 2 = 27
for dmg, electric: 2d6 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (3, 2) + 7 + (6) = 18
trip Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 17 + 1 = 32 vs CMD

Zelekhut Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 17 + 1 + 2 = 40
for dmg, electric: 2d6 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (2, 4) + 7 + (2) = 15
trip Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 17 + 1 = 31 vs CMD

Confirm Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 17 + 1 + 2 = 37
for dmg, electric: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (1, 2) + 7 = 10

Zelekhut Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 17 + 1 + 2 = 22
for dmg, electric: 2d6 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (3, 2) + 7 + (4) = 16
trip Lawful Chain: 1d20 + 17 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 17 + 1 = 23 vs CMD

Z=AC24(25 hasted)/115HP+DR10/Chaotic+SR20

Divine Interference reroll: ATK: 1d20 + 24 - 1 ⇒ (16) + 24 - 1 = 39 Still a hit, but NOT confirmed. Damage is only 24.

Suliji dodges the chain as it snaps near her. Hugo grabs the Patron, and dimensionally jumps to the room where they fought Mr. Khayn when the man nods yes.

The Zelekhut snaps his chains on her. She doesn't drop, but a quickly weakening spell of stoneskin looks like it stopped some of the damage.

Round 2:
Atum: ATK!
Suliji: ATK!
Roos: Go
Roakar: Go
Hugo: Stuff
Ignatious: Go

Actual damage taken only 19 then with DR 5/evil. Atum also has 30% fortification while large anyways, which I almost forgot about.

Atum steps back to give himself some room to swing his weapon, trying to bring down Suliji and then the wall of blades if he is able.

So if Suliji drops, direct the rest at the construct thing.

+3 impact adamantine bec de corbin: 1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 20 + 1 = 30

Roos starts singing a good Thassalonian warsong as a standard action and then moves around the battlefield and away from Roaker as he maneuvers to help the stoney one...

also where did you get those gifs to use i see on the map?

Raokar Refl: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Roakar takes the blades to the face, and while he walks away, he is starting to look a lot worse for wear.

Attack 1 vs BLUE: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (9) + 26 = 35
Damage: 1d12 + 29 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) + 29 + (3, 3) = 37
Vicious damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Attack 2 vs BLUE: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (6) + 21 = 27

Vicious damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6
----------
Attack 3 vs BLUE: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (16) + 16 = 32
Damage: 1d12 + 29 + 2d6 ⇒ (7) + 29 + (2, 6) = 44
Vicious damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Iggy, not liking the idea o being cut off from his allies, moves through the room, calling on sacred Grace and then sending out gentle waves of healing energy throughout the room.

Casting Grace as a Swift Action to avoid AoO's for 1 round as I move to the middle of the room, then Channeling Energy to heal living. Everyone except the Patron and Hugo should be affected, including enemies.

Channel Energy: 8d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 4, 5, 2, 1, 6, 4) = 26

Not that Hugo or the patron would know the source but will be interesting if he is healed via his ring. Hugo was hoping to be out of range for shield other- but that ring seems stronger

Spell Effects: LINK. You have to download the .gif, then insert it. Copy and past looses it's animation.

Roos inspires his hasted allies as they press the advantage. Roakar destroys the second set of blades, but the release of magic causes them to explode too: Roakar, Roos, and Ignatious must make REF saves (DC 18 for half) Slashing: 12d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 2, 2, 5, 1, 4, 6, 6, 5, 2, 3) = 48

Ignatious mends the wounds of his allies as he repositions himself.

Atum continues to hammer Suliji, literally chipping away at her defenses.

The animated avenger stays with Ignatious, darting like a ballista bolt:
ATK: 1d20 + 24 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 24 + 2 = 44 THREAT
ATK: 1d20 + 24 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 24 + 2 = 39 DMG: 2d8 + 18 + 2d6 ⇒ (5, 3) + 18 + (5, 5) = 36

Suliji doesn't want to be in the charge lane for Roakar, so she slides in towards Atum. She casts a spell with a single word (swift). A shredding flurry of ice shards sprays over Atum, Ignatious, and Roakar. REF DC 23 for half of Cold DMG: 15d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 1, 5, 4, 6, 2, 3, 3, 5, 1, 1, 2, 4, 6) = 51

Animated Sword: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17

She then begins to cut with fury at Atum:
Slash upwards: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (14) + 24 = 38 Slashing Adamantine: 1d8 + 9 + 2d6 ⇒ (1) + 9 + (2, 3) = 15
Slash across: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (7) + 19 = 26 MISS
Slash downward: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20 MISS

Round 3:
Atum: ATK!
Suliji: ATK
Roos: Go
Roakar: Go
Hugo: Go
Ignatious: Go

Hugo will cast cure serious on the patron.

above include haste and bard but add flank if it can.

Roakar Refl 2: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (16) + 16 = 32 <+9 vs "magic" included>

Both have Evasion if it matters.

OUCH!

"The glue is sovereign. Can you undo it? Suppress it? There's also.... well I'd rather not." He seems grateful that his wounds have been healed.

Round 3:
Atum: ATK!
Suliji: ATK
Roos: Go
Roakar: Go
Hugo: Patching up
Ignatious: Go

had not finished my post above - changed from heal. Added Zelekhut attacks. Kids band concert starting soon so roll crit or damage to Zelekhut as needed.

The animated avenger stays with Ignatious, darting like a ballista bolt:

Just for the record, if it kills me, does this count as destroying the Holy Avenger?

Actually, since I act after Roakar's attack, would I have been caught in the first blast at all? I'm really debating right now if I should cast Heal on myself (currently at 14HP) or Roakar, (who I'm unsure, but he has got to be very close to dropping). +48 HP would leave me a little more in the "okayish" range.

Ref: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32

Atum avoids the worst of the blast and continues to back up so he can swing freely at Suliji.

Again, if she falls the rest of the attacks will go against the sword thing.

+3 impact adamantine bec de corbin: 1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 20 + 1 = 36
damage: 3d8 + 27 ⇒ (2, 1, 6) + 27 = 36

+3 impact adamantine bec de corbin: 1d20 + 15 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 15 + 1 = 20
damage: 3d8 + 27 ⇒ (8, 1, 5) + 27 = 41

+3 impact adamantine bec de corbin: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 10 + 1 = 28
damage: 3d8 + 27 ⇒ (2, 3, 8) + 27 = 40

+3 impact adamantine bec de corbin: 1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 20 + 1 = 38
damage: 3d8 + 27 ⇒ (4, 4, 5) + 27 = 40

Atum's swings should have flank, haste, bard applied if you haven't already (and possibly prone if Zelekhut tripped her).

apologies- had two sit down games to do today, catching up, thanks for the links.

Roos REF vs 18: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (9) + 19 = 28 and he takes 24 damage and is not happy about it.

He moves bast the curtains and races up to the female foe and darts in with his holy rapier...

Holy Adm Rapier+PA: 1d20 + 19 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 19 + 2 + 1 = 38...DMG: 1d6 + 27 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 27 + 2 = 30

Possible Crit?: 1d20 + 19 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 19 + 2 + 1 = 38...DMG: 1d6 + 27 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 27 + 2 = 35

AC:36; 114/138 health

To Hugo, "Don't know. Supress magic? I'm not a wizard!"

The Zelekhut meanwhile continues its work: Confirm: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (11) + 20 = 31 Confirmed. DMG: 2d6 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (3, 5) + 7 + 2 = 17.

Roos similarly turns her attention to the half-orc. Despite the zelekhut's attempts, she remaining standing. Roos's blade drives DEEP.

Atum busts through her stoneskin, finally destroying the last of her protection.

(Meanwhile the Patron starts bleeding profusely from his abdomen! He loses consciousness! He's not dead, but he's very very close.)

Not entirely sure what you're asking Ignatious.

Round 3:
Atum: ATK!
Suliji: ATK
Roos: Crit
Roakar: Go
Hugo: Patching up
Ignatious: Go

FYI Hugo has breath of life ready and will use it should he need to save the patron before his turn comes around.

Unless Hugo thinks of a way to suppress the magic effect, he thinks he's going to need it soon...

Gotcha. Hugo will try to cure critical the man again once his turn comes up, and then try a dispel magic on the ring thereafter...or cut off his finger if necessary.
Just keeping breath of life ready if he doesn't get his chance to cure first.

Not entirely sure what you're asking Ignatious.

Roakar destroys the second set of blades, but the release of magic causes them to explode too: Roakar, Roos, and Ignatious must make REF saves (DC 18 for half).

Since I didn't actually move until after Roakar (and Hugo) acted, would I have been in the area of this explosion? I'm trying to make sure, because both Roakar (I believe) and myself are looking pretty beat down right now, and I'm debating on who to focus on healing. Currently, with that extra 48 damage, and after my last Channel, I'm at 14 HP, so one hit could literally kill me. I honestly have no idea what Roakar is at, so I've really been just trying to assume he is at high, mid, or low HP, and right now, is very likely at the low end as well. He has too many variables I'm not clear on.

<If you mean the second part, about destroying the Holy Avenger, I was joking. I'd read somewhere that the only way to truly destroy a Holy Avenger was to purposefully use it to willingly slay an Angel, similar to how Artifacts have a unique story method of being destroyed.>

======================================================

Roakar shouts, "Go big or go home, right!" wiping a bit of blood off of the corner of his mouth before he drops his own weapon and tried to leap on the flying Holy Avenger, possibly impaling himself, but the thought of wrestling away control of such a powerful blade is just too tempting.

[dice="Grapple" CMB]1d20+28[/dice] <does Provoke>
And a Nat 1

***********

Iggy takes a step back, and calls on more healing powers, forsaking a powerful offensive spell <Stormbolts for Mass Cure Citical> to instead open a small channel to the Positive Energy Plane to heal only his allies.
Mass Cure Critical: 4d8 + 15 ⇒ (3, 1, 8, 2) + 15 = 29
Raokar Will Save for Half (DC 22): 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (1) + 18 = 19

EDIT: If Roakar dies, I'll instead try a Breath of Life, although, I believe he has to make a Save to resist. . .

Gotcha, no Ignatious would have rightly moved before then.

Roakar tries to grapple the dancing blade AoO: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (10) + 24 = 34 for DMG: 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (6) + 14 = 20 Save: 1d20 ⇒ 17 Not sure his Mod, but he succeeds to accept the healing.

Ignatious keeps everyone patched together, as the battle rages...

Round 4:
Atum: Go
Suliji: TBD
Roos: TBD
Roakar: TBD
Hugo: TBD
Ignatious: TBD

I believe he has to fail (his save) in order to get the full effect. Essentially, he has to actively resist all magic, even harmless or beneficial magics, (but not Channeling or Bardic Abilities, etc. . . that do not offer a save.

You are correct. My bad.
