Dungeon Master S's "Curse of the Crimson Throne" (Inactive)

Game Master Chris Marsh

Sorry for the delay and not posting last night. Remember if you have Combat reflexes, you get to AoO in the surprise round.

Round 1

Sandor saw the shadows decending, but wasn't quick enough to move Morkelb away from the attackers blade. With a quick decision on tactics Sandor tries to bash the one next to Gaius with his shield, then switches the rest of his attacks to the one on Morkelb.

On Blue:
Shield Bash TWF+PA+Favored Enemy: 1d20 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 18 + 2 = 31 Opponent Hit with Attack is affected by a Bull Rush the CMB= Attack Roll+6. If opponent can't move it falls prone
Dmg+Favored Enemy: 1d6 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 12 + 2 = 19

I sure do hope he is prone.

On Black:
Dwarven Waraxe +1 TWF+PA+Favored Enemy: 1d20 + 15 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 15 + 2 = 20
Dmg+Favored Enemy: 1d10 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 14 + 2 = 17
Dwarven Waraxe +1 TWF+PA+Favored Enemy (2nd attk): 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 10 + 2 = 27
Dmg+Favored Enemy: 1d10 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 14 + 2 = 21
Shield Bash TWF+PA+Favored Enemy (2nd attk): 1d20 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 13 + 2 = 32 Opponent Hit with Attack is affected by a Bull Rush the CMB= Attack Roll+6. If opponent can't move it falls prone
Dmg+Favored Enemy: 1d6 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 12 + 2 = 15
Dwarven Waraxe +1 TWF+PA+Favored Enemy (3rd attk): 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 2 = 12
Dmg+Favored Enemy: 1d10 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 14 + 2 = 22

Two Weapon Rend if both weapons hit: 1d10 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 2 = 12

If Sandor's shield bash pushes black Bucho gets an Aoo, and Sandor will step where black is now. If I by chance kill black, I will 5'step to where Mork is when he moves.

Morkelb get behind me.

For the record Grym, it's easier to assume they're all targets.of Seri Serithiel

so can we safely assume that Grym's opponent is several pieces on the floor in a spreading pool of blood?

More likely vanishes in a poof of mist like the last 2. Although I think you're about to have company from behind green. :D

Woah, 11,000 posts. Nuts. I hit 18,000 personal posts this week too.

In the blink of an eye Grym chops an assassin to pieces. Literally, limbs and viscera fall like rain. Bucho takes a solid bite out of one, but the assassin still fights.

Sandor smashes into an assassin knocking him back and into Ferox. The blow knocks the assassin prone. He turns and messes up the next target in line. He tries to push the man past the trained dog, but the pole blocks his path. A second assassin gets knocked down!

Round 1:

Ferox: Go
Sandor: ATK!
Grym: ATTTTACK!
Baddies: TBD
Odric: TBD
Gaius: TBD
Morkeleb: TBD

Ferox!

Ferox takes a step back from the Mantis that stumbled into him and casts Invisibility Purge. Anything within 70' of Ferox that was invisible is now visible.

Ferox steps back and Abadar's will banishes spells of invisibility near by. Unfortunately, no one becomes visible.

The assassins act as quickly as they can.

Despite being prone, the two mantis assassins on either side of Morkeleb aim for the inner thigh of the wizard!

Black 1: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (6) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 14 MISS
Black 2: 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 6 + 1 - 4 = 21 DMG: 1d8 + 8 + 3d6 ⇒ (4) + 8 + (2, 1, 4) = 19
Black 3: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (14) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 22 DMG: 1d8 + 8 + 3d6 ⇒ (5) + 8 + (5, 2, 6) = 26
Black 4: 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 1 - 4 = 4 MISS
Black Haste: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 18 DMG: 1d8 + 8 + 3d6 ⇒ (3) + 8 + (5, 2, 3) = 21
Blue 1: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 10 MISS
Blue 2: 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 1 - 4 = 4 MISS
Blue 3: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (14) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 22 DMG: 1d8 + 8 + 3d6 ⇒ (5) + 8 + (2, 2, 6) = 23
Blue 4: 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 1 - 4 = 10 MISS
Blue Haste: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (19) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 27 THREAT
Blue Haste Confirm : 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 19 DMG: 2d8 + 16 + 3d6 ⇒ (8, 1) + 16 + (1, 5, 5) = 36

Red and Yellow converge on Ferox, hoping to bring down the spell he just cast.

Red 1: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 11 + 1 = 31 THREAT
Red 1 Confirm: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 11 + 1 = 22 DMG: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Red 2: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 6 + 1 = 24 DMG: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
Red 3: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 11 + 1 = 31 THREAT
Red 3 Confirmation: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 11 + 1 = 29 DMG: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (8, 2) + 16 = 26
Red 4: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 1 = 11 MISS
Red Haste: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 11 + 1 = 17 MISS
Yellow 1: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 11 + 1 = 28 DMG: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
Yellow 2: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 1 = 13 MISS
Yellow 3: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 11 + 1 = 14 MISS
Yellow 4: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 1 = 27 THREAT
Yellow 4 Confirm: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 6 + 1 = 25 DMG: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (7, 2) + 16 = 25
Yellow Haste: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 11 + 1 = 27 DMG: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

Round 1:

Ferox: Invisibility Purge
Sandor: ATK!
Grym: ATTTTACK!
Baddies: ATK
Odric: Go
Gaius: Go
Morkeleb: Go

I'm waiting on The Stout.

Slack chatter indicates Morkeleb is dead. If he is, Gaius casts a Level 5 spell defensively... I need a 12 or better.

Concentration:1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28

Hey, did it.

Gaius casts Breath of Life on Morkeleb, healing 5d8 + 10 ⇒ (5, 6, 1, 4, 7) + 10 = 33 points and automatically stabilizing if I can get him above his death threshold.

Given I'm a Calistrian... I reckon there's probably tongue with that.

Given I'm a Calistrian... I reckon there's probably tongue with that.

I did hear the Calistrian mumble something of thank goodness he only wears robes. So actually after this battle Sandor is going to need a doll to show Morkelb exactly where he placed his breath of life to. Then maybe explain the good touch bad touch areas.

I'm the Cleric you deserve, not that cleric you need.

Gaius immediately moves gracefully to cast a powerful spell, instantly bringing Morkeleb back before his soul left his body.

Round 1:

Ferox: Invisibility Purge
Sandor: ATK!
Grym: ATTTTACK!
Baddies: ATK
Odric: Go
Gaius: Breath of Life!
Morkeleb: Go

Holy...Nothing like checking the board to "you're dead...but wait, not really..." Jeez, maybe next time I die I could, you know, make a mistake to cause it or something??

Morkeleb is at -7 and stable, thanks to the breath of life.

I'm glad I could help in this battle by taking some hits, yo.

Round 1:

Ferox: Invisibility Purge
Sandor: ATK!
Grym: ATTTTACK!
Baddies: ATK
Odric: Go
Gaius: Breath of Life!
Morkeleb: Stable

Round 2:

Ferox: Go
Sandor: Go
Grym: Go
Baddies: TBD
Odric: TBD
Gaius: TBD
Morkeleb: TBD

Odric looks disapprovingly at Morkeleb. The wizard's foray into meat shielding went poorly, to say the least.

Odric lashes out with considerable savagery at the prone Mantis, aiming to slice downwards into the thing's body and continue the follow-through to the adjacent foe.

Pwr Atk (FF): 1d20 + 27 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 27 + 4 = 37 for 1d10 + 14 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 14 + 9 = 29 damage and Intimidate DC 10+Target HD+Target Wis Mod: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (11) + 25 = 36.

Cleave to YELLOW Pwr Atk (FF): 1d20 + 27 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 27 + 2 = 47 for 1d10 + 14 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 14 + 9 = 28 damage and Intimidate DC 10+Target HD+Target Wis Mod: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (8) + 25 = 33.

THREAT: Pwr Atk (FF): 1d20 + 27 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 27 + 2 = 39 for 1d10 + 14 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 14 + 9 = 32 damage. Yellow is Sickened for 1 minute, taking a -2 to all attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks. No save. ALSO - Yellow must make a Fortitude save (DC = 16) or be stunned for 1 round.

Odric has 2 more attacks, but I want to see the results of this first please...

OK DM straightened me out on what cleave would imply - that Odric couldn't take additional attacks. The second attack roll (the cleave) will be on the prone dude (yellow) and that kills him. He slumps on the ground, motionless.

Odric watches the life leave the prone Mantis assassin's body, and pivots smartly to his left. With a practiced eye, the warrior times the second warrior's movements and slices the kegerator at just the right moment, to slip the magically honed blade into his guts.

Attack 3: Pwr Atk (FF): 1d20 + 27 + 2 - 10 ⇒ (20) + 27 + 2 - 10 = 39 for 1d10 + 14 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 14 + 9 = 30 damage and Intimidate DC 10+Target HD+Target Wis Mod: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (17) + 25 = 42.

Confirm: Pwr Atk (FF): 1d20 + 27 + 2 - 10 ⇒ (13) + 27 + 2 - 10 = 32 for 1d10 + 14 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 14 + 9 = 25 damage

YELLOW is Sickened for 1 minute, taking a -2 to all attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks. No save. ALSO - YELLOW must make a Fortitude save (DC = 16) or be Stunned for 1 round.

With the gore and wound-slurry making the floor slick, Odric goes full Death Blossom. In two swings he takes out one of the assassins who killed, albeit temporarily, Morkeleb.

His follow up nearly drops the next assassin, and while he holds his feet, FORT: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 he drops his weapons and wobbles for a bit.

Round 2:

Ferox: Go
Sandor: Go
Grym: Go
Baddies: TBD
Odric: TBD
Gaius: TBD
Morkeleb: TBD

Round 2

Almost completely distracted by the demise and rising of Morkelb the Mighty Sandor continues his assault on the prone target.

Perception+Favored vs DC25: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 19 + 2 = 25
More spell casting to the far side of the wall to the south Sandor growls.

Assuming they will redmist upon death, Sandor will swing at black(prone) until it's dead, then take a 5' diagonal step to engage red. Only included prone bonus on first attack.

Dwarven Waraxe +1 TWF+PA+Prone+Favored: 1d20 + 15 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 15 + 4 + 2 = 32
Dmg+FE: 1d10 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 14 + 2 = 17
Shield Bash TWF+PA+FE: 1d20 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 18 + 2 = 26 Opponent Hit with Attack is affected by a Bull Rush the CMB= Attack Roll+6. If opponent can't move it falls prone
Dmg+FE: 1d6 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 12 + 2 = 20
Dwarven Waraxe +1 TWF+PA (2nd attk)+FE: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 2 = 19
Dmg+FE: 1d10 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 14 + 2 = 25
Shield Bash TWF+PA (2nd attk)+FE: 1d20 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 13 + 2 = 30 Opponent Hit with Attack is affected by a Bull Rush the CMB= Attack Roll+6. If opponent can't move it falls prone
Dmg+FE: 1d6 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 12 + 2 = 18
Dwarven Waraxe +1 TWF+PA (3rd attk)+FE: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 5 + 2 = 27
Dmg+FE: 1d10 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 14 + 2 = 18

Sandor follows suite to Odric's savage counterattacks. He kills the prone assassin, and then moves to take out the next assassin.

Only 2 remain, not counting the one around back.

Round 2:

Ferox: Go
Sandor: ATK
Grym: Go
Baddies: TBD
Odric: TBD
Gaius: TBD
Morkeleb: TBD

Don't forget to see if Mr. Stunned and Sickened is also Demoralized! Hahahaha

Ferox Dimension Hops away from the Mantises and takes a quick survey of the room.

Ferox can't fail that Perception check. Does the Invisibility Purge reveal anything? I'll finish Ferox's turn when that is resolved.

Ferox Dimension Hops away from the Mantises and takes a quick survey of the room.

Part of Grym's mind (the unused part, so there is kind of a lot), even during his own combat and keeping track of Bucho trying to defend Mork, is able to note Ferox's dimension hop. He heartily approves and is quite impressed with such amazing footwork.

Round 2 Team Ranger

With Odric and Sandor's help the immediate threat of Mantis warriors is gone. Poor Morkeleb lays barely stable on the ground from the Calistrian's Kiss. The dog actually straddles part of the wizard's body and gives a deep low growl as if daring anyone else to try and attack. Readied attack on anyone threatening Morkeleb

The ranger gives half a moments hesitation. He nearly started a lunge to end the yellow Mantises life, but the man looked barely alive and certainly wasn't a threat. Grym decided he didn't feel right stealing a kill from Odric. Though not quite as amazing as the Inquisitor's dimension hopping, the ranger put on some fast footwork and moves around the yellow to attack the red Mantis.

Grym's attack 1d20 + 21 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 21 + 6 + 2 = 39
Serethial 1d8 + 15 + 6 + 2 + 4d6 ⇒ (7) + 15 + 6 + 2 + (4, 4, 1, 2) = 41

Serithiel cuts deep, and the assassin's wound is ragged from the ire of the blade.

Round 2:

Ferox: Standard Action
Sandor: ATK
Grym: ATK
Baddies: TBD
Odric: TBD
Gaius: TBD
Morkeleb: TBD

Ferox takes aim and shoots at Red.

Arrow: 1d20 + 19 + 4 - 3 ⇒ (12) + 19 + 4 - 3 = 32
Damage: 1d8 + 5 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 6 = 16

Ferox's arrow just barely misses the assassin as she finishes her spell...

While one assassin shakes his head, overcoming the stun of Odric's hit, the other goes toe to toe with Grym.

Right overhead cut:
ATK 1: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 1 = 24, parried in #5.
Right cross cut:
ATK 2: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 1 = 13, parried in #3.
Left upward stab:
ATK 3: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 11 + 1 = 25, parried in #7.
Left center mass stab:
ATK 4: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 1 = 17, parried in #4.
Right throat cut:
ATK Haste: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 11 + 1 = 20, parried in #2

The main assassin's spell completes: 1d3 ⇒ 3 and a trio of fiendish giant praying mantises appear! Two of them try to tear Bucho to pieces!

Red ATK 1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Red ATK 2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24
Black ATK 1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Black ATK 2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18

But they all miss!

The last goes after Ferox:
Brown ATK 1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25 for DMG: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Brown ATK 2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

It tries to pull the Inquisitor's head in for a nice snack!
CMB: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31 and grabs Ferox!
Bite: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2, but he pulls his head aside.

She steps forward and shows the utterly lack of mercy required by Achaekek, the Mantis god. She summons forth a warming carpet of red mantises. The writhing mass of legs and poisonous pincers swarms across the ground in a deadly, undulating wave.

Red Mantis, Sandor, Gaius, Bucho, and yes, Morkeleb all take DMG: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 6, 2) = 14 Damage and must make a FORT DC 19 save versus poison.
Mantis Fort: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 The mantis assassin is overrun by the creeping doom. He nearly falls from the bites.

Round 2 Continued...

Bucho's actions

Standing over his downed packmate the canine waits for the the giant mantises to come. The dog ignores the little bugs as the terrifyingly large insects close in to attack the dog tears into the black one crunching exoskeletons and leaking bug guts...

Fortitude save vs little bugs 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (13) + 18 = 31

Readied attack! main 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (10) + 18 = 28
bite 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14

2nd attack 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30
bite 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18

Bucho is pretty much a honey badger...

The readied attack allows for one bite, but it definitely gets a mantis leg and tears it clean off. The mantis is already practically dead.

Ferox Dimension Hops to the opposite side of the corridor. Then with a earnest prayer to Abadar, Ferox casts Banishment (Will DC 18)

Red: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15
Brown: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Black: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

Ferox banishes the mantises as quickly as they appeared. The Creeping Doom, however, is unaffected.

Round 3 I can't move the map from my iPad so plz assist

Oohhhh. A named Mantis, and she casts 7th lvl spells. Challenge accepted. :D. Sandor can't fail the DC for the poison. Current HP 139/153

There ye be 'n aren't ye a wicked wench. Ya picked on the wrong group missy. The upturned cup will end your days. It's time fer ya ta meet ya mantis god.

The dwarf charges axe raised almost like he is going to throw it. Instead at the last moment the shield comes forward as he slams into her.

Shield Bash PA+FE and Charge: 1d20 + 20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 20 + 2 + 2 = 43 Opponent Hit with Attack is affected by a Bull Rush the CMB= Attack Roll+6. If opponent can't move it falls prone
Dmg+FE: 1d6 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 12 + 2 = 19

Saves automatically fail on a 1. FORT: 1d20 ⇒ 20, but not that time! And I wasted a 20 to boot. There's no charge lane for Sandor either. She's 25' away. Sandor you can redo your turn.

Gaius saves Vs. Poison:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

NOPE!

What happens, DM?

Gaius exits the swarm and heads for where he suspects the problem is.

He draws his mace on the move and uses a swift action to Channel Smite. He attacks.

I'll Mace You Good!:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (2) + 15 = 17 Vs. AC

Hit?

Damage:1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Channel Smite:5d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 1, 1, 4) = 16

Realing from the bites of a hundred mantises, Gaius exits the swarm and swings at the assassin. She easily dodges his clumsy attack, but the cleric is now out of the Doom.

Sandor's changed round 3 action is he moves and readies an action to attack if she comes within range.

Odric attacks, swinging the kegerator in a fluid X pattern, slicing alternatively at the assassin's shoulders, first the right, then the left, and finally the right again!

First attack: Pwr Atk (FF): 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (2) + 27 = 29 for 1d10 + 14 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 14 + 9 = 24 damage and Intimidate DC 10+Target HD+Target Wis Mod: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (14) + 25 = 39.

Second Attack: Pwr Atk (FF): 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (16) + 22 = 38 for 1d10 + 14 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 14 + 9 = 33 damage and Intimidate DC 10+Target HD+Target Wis Mod: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (8) + 25 = 33. <-Threat

Third Attack: Pwr Atk (FF): 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (14) + 17 = 31 for 1d10 + 14 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 14 + 9 = 29 damage and Intimidate DC 10+Target HD+Target Wis Mod: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (13) + 25 = 38.

Confirm Second Attack: Pwr Atk (FF): 1d20 + 22 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 22 + 4 = 46 for 1d10 + 14 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 14 + 9 + 2 = 28 damage and Intimidate DC 10+Target HD+Target Wis Mod: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (4) + 25 = 29.
This dude is Sickened for 1 minute, no save. Save DC 16 or Stunned for 1 round.
Sickened = -2 to all attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks.

Upon completing the evisceration, Odric leaps into the air and tucks his feet up so he appears to be crouching in the air - He points the dripping steel at the Cleric and sneers at her with blood soaked malice. The stones of this castle will taste her blood this day.

I was hoping to do a 5' step vertically using the power of flight. is that OK?

sorry Odric, standard action to activate the boots. you can get out of the swarm or murderlate the assassin, your choice.

-Posted with Wayfinder

His choice made, Odric tarries a bit too long on the ground. The assassin falls to Odric's sword as have so many before him. He steps back 5 feet away from the swarm, but he knows he will probably be overwhelmed by the stinging creatures.

Odric doubts their sting will hurt more than the the fiery, cleansing gut of Cindermaw the Clan-Eater, the Mountain-that-Crawls and the Fire-That-Roars, Denizen of the Feeding Grounds of the Quah-Kael. Mollified slightly, Odric grits his teeth in defiant anticipation.

Grym finishes off the red Mantis warrior in front of him, and yells for Bucho to attack the female spell caster.

Grym attack 1d20 + 21 + 2 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 21 + 2 + 6 = 41
Serethial 1d8 + 15 + 2 + 6 + 4d6 ⇒ (2) + 15 + 2 + 6 + (3, 3, 3, 4) = 38

offhand 1d20 + 18 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 18 + 6 = 39
SharkSlayer 1d4 + 13 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 13 + 6 = 20

2nd main attack 1d20 + 16 + 2 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 16 + 2 + 6 = 26
Serethial 1d8 + 15 + 2 + 6 + 4d6 ⇒ (5) + 15 + 2 + 6 + (2, 3, 1, 4) = 38

2nd offhand 1d20 + 13 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 13 + 6 = 39
SharkSlayer 1d4 + 13 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 13 + 6 = 20

Bucho rushes out of the little stinging creatures. Nails clicking on the tiles the dog rushes past Gaius and plows into the spell caster.

attack 1d20 + 18 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 18 + 6 = 38
bite 1d4 + 13 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 13 + 6 = 22

This is going well.

Odric stands his ground as the mantises bite and chew their way towards him. With complete mastery he cuts down the assassin, who is immediately set upon by stray mantises.

Sandor huffs it towards her, but can't close right off, and takes a readied posture.

Standing knee deep in the Creeping Doom, Grym cuts his foe down, even as the insects bite him hundreds of times.

Bucho finally gets to the main assassin and bites her, drawing her first blood!

"Stupid animal!" She first goes after Bucho with shocking fury. Her blades crackling with electricity as they flash at the terrier:

ATK 1: 1d20 + 19 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 19 + 1 = 37 THREAT
ATK 1: 1d20 + 19 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 19 + 1 = 21 Regular: 1d8 + 12 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 12 + (3) = 18
ATK 2: 1d20 + 14 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 14 + 1 = 28 MISS
ATK 3: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 1 = 16 MISS
ATK 4: 1d20 + 19 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 19 + 1 = 36 Regular: 1d8 + 10 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 10 + (5) = 19
ATK 5: 1d20 + 14 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 14 + 1 = 24 MISS
ATK Haste: 1d20 + 19 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 19 + 1 = 29 Regular: 1d8 + 12 + 1d6 ⇒ (7) + 12 + (3) = 22

The second d6 in the damage is electricity, so subtract it if I've missed some kind of resistance on Bucho.

The swarms stay put as she didn't have time to command them.

Round 3:

Ferox: Banish
Sandor: Double Move
Grym: ATK
Baddies: ATK
Odric: Go
Gaius: Go
Morkeleb: Dead

EDIT: Nevermind, she moved... Posting anew

Mace goes into my off hand and I cast Slay Living. Shift to close the distance.

My finger is charged.

DM Just told me I get a free touch...

BAD TOUCH!:1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17

Gaius swipes with his black-shrouded hand, but the assassin is too quick, and she pulls herself away easily Your hand is still charged.

Round 3:

Ferox: Banish
Sandor: Double Move
Grym: ATK
Baddies: ATK
Odric: Go
Gaius: Cast
Morkeleb: Dead

Odric flies upwards and makes a beeline for the Cleric (double move, ending directly over her, high enough to execute a vertical 5' step straight down next round). Odric will taunt her en route, trying to draw her ire...

"We will crush your Mantis god underfoot, as we have savaged your men! You face the Upturned Cup, and I am Odric the Stout, defender, shieldmate, and Brother to his fellows
Son, Servant, and Savior of Korvosa; Bloodsworn protector of lambs;
The Lion of the Midlands; expert exsanguinator; The indefatigable colossus known throughout the land as the Relentless Butcher; Master swordsman and Author of your doom! Despair! The Stout comes!"

Odric rises from the floor, his massive bulging muscles straining his dragonblood etched deathless armor. The Kegerator, masterwork dwarvenforged blade held horizontally before him. One of his massive Gauntleted fists grips the hilt, the other supporting the wicked point at shoulder level. Odric's cloak billows behind him ominously, the rich bright orange fabric flowing as he moves effortlessly through the air. His baritone voice booms from within his helm, where his Tiefling features are hidden. The fierce majesty of this man, Mantis blood dripping from both arms, us something the bards will remember for generations, provided the Upturned Cup is not cracked.

Intimidate to Demoralize: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (18) + 25 = 43
