Doxon spurs his spectral horse forward after Ushyle. As he does, he says a quick prayer to Torag for protection.

Fervor to swift cast Iron Skin

With Ushyle goes Doxon!

Ushyle closes nearly half the distance. He can see the area, a quartet of massive giants and a colossal scorpion; its carapace is as black as coal, and its claws are each as long as a man’s body.

Vael flies forward, knowing full well that he'll have a hard time keeping up with the others.
Because of flight can he Run? With Haste his speed is 70, but Run is 4x speed. Vael wouldn't go past the others. If not, then double move for 140ft

WP kicks his broom and takes off towards the chain!
(fly speed is 40' with one action to mount. does that move me 40 ft?)


MAP TEMPLATES | Social Combat | War for the Crown | Campaign Tracker |

Vael, Tulia, and Lykophos also make a break for the chain. Whistle Pig jumps aboard his broom and kicks like a steed.

A steam whistle sounds from the tower. You can see two artillery crews frantically moving into position to aid in the defense of the chain team. The alarm whistle also causes a flurry of activity in the scorpion pen area.

Hamilton and Sammi kick off and make a straight flight with all possible speed to the chain.

Fly Speed is 50' +30' from the Haste spell. Unclear if I can, "run", while flying because it's natural flight.

So double move or a run if I can.


MAP TEMPLATES | Social Combat | War for the Crown | Campaign Tracker |

Hamilton and Sammi also streak forward. Three of the ash giants working on the chain move to hurl boulders at Ushyle The closest, visible, non-giant-dodging-dwarf

Rock 1: 1d20 + 13 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 13 - 4 = 24 MISS
Rock 2: 1d20 + 13 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 13 - 4 = 17 MISS
Rock 3: 1d20 + 13 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 13 - 4 = 20 MISS

The other giant and the scorpion work at the chain, desperately trying to break it!

Another ballista bolt emerges from the cloud, headed straight for Raen:

ATK: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23 for DMG: 4d8 ⇒ (2, 1, 5, 2) = 10 and Elec: 1d6 ⇒ 3 striking her yet again!

Doxon spurs the spectral horse to race ahead, closing the distance to the giants.

Double move

As he rides, Doxon continues to pray to Torag.

1d8 ⇒ 7 IMAGE

Raen's illusion does its work, and the castle's ballista finds only a copy of the Varisian. Down to 6 images, now a d7.

Raen hurries ahead to catch Whistle Pig on his slower broom. "Hold on," an invisible voice calls to the halfling. A gentle *pop* precedes their sudden appearance in the air not far from the chain team. "May I suggest the rider die first?"

Dimension Door. Range is 960' so I should be fine. Placed us on the map, 50' in the air. Raen is still invisible; WP is not.

Ushyle continues to race toward the tower, and as the three throwing boulders come into clearer view, he studies them for weakness.

Double move with haste, swift action to study the three giants throwing stones (singin' ashes to ashes, all fall down).


MAP TEMPLATES | Social Combat | War for the Crown | Campaign Tracker |

Raen and Whistle Pig arrive, with Raen's voice giving Whistle Pig some suggestions.

Ushyle closes too. The Heroes of Trunau upon the phantom steeds borth grow in power as they close.

The alarm stirs a second colossal scorpion to action. She emerges from a cave with a half dozen horse sized young upon her back. Behind them two ash giants follow!

Whistle Pig opens fire. His hoopak whistling in the hot wind of the caldera. All five of his shots land, each propelled with the emotional loss of a fallen citizen of Trunau.

He nearly topples the giant from the scorpion!

Raen eyes the scorpion carefully. Knowledge (Dungeoneering): 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (18) + 17 = 35

In order of preference: saves, special attacks, defenses (as many parts as I get), special qualities.

Raen:

You won't be able to shout this to everyone, hence the spoiler Raen has heard of black scorpions, but has never seen one. They're slow and weak willed, though they are unthinking vermin. They are fantastically tough. Despite their size, their stingers are impossibly fast and the poison is brutally hard to overcome, even for dwarves.

Minor correction (with GM's benevolent permission): Raen 'ports the pair to 70' up. I mistook the size of the scorpion's size for 20', not 30', and Raen would not put WP into that much harm's way. The giant on top is also 30' up, so it does not change WP's ranging.

Map updated.

"Help Whistle Pig if ye can!" Vael calls out to Tulia, continuing his rush forward.
Double move for Vael. Another 140ft closer.

"On it," Tulia replies, flying forward and racing past Vael.
Double move of 220ft


MAP TEMPLATES | Social Combat | War for the Crown | Campaign Tracker |

Vael, Tulia, and Lyhophos all move as quickly as they can to the action.

A pair of ash giants with crossbows emerge from the base of the tower. Both take aim at Whistle Pig, then drop their weapons in order to cut off the slower members of the party:

Large Bolt 1: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (6) + 12 = 18 MISS
Large Bolt 2: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27 for DMG: 3d8 ⇒ (5, 8, 4) = 17

From the top of the tower, another well aimed ballista bolt heads straight towards the invisible wizard:
ATK: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (2) + 21 = 23 Images: 1d7 ⇒ 5 image destroyed

Right after, the deep sound of a catapult letting go Catapult boulder v. Whistle Pig: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (12) + 21 = 33 and it slams into the pour halfling DMG: 8d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 1, 3, 3, 5, 1, 3) = 24

Finally a bead of fire flies into the mix, exploding in a massive fireball between Ushyle and Doxon! FIRE: 10d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 2, 5, 4, 2, 2, 3, 5, 2) = 32 REF DC 14 for half

Hamilton and Sammi also close distance!

Now that there are people on the map, the fire on the map doesn't harm. It's visual effect, not hazard.

The infantry Ash giants close for combat. They each have unreasonably large clubs, but opt instead to hurl boulders at Whistle Pig:

Red v. Whistle Pig: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31 for DMG: 1d8 + 16 ⇒ (7) + 16 = 23 and a FORT save

Blue v. Whistle Pig: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14 MISS

Raen knows that they cannot weather the bombardment for long, nor have much of a chance if the chain is freed, so she flits a little further out of reach and tries to shut down the chain down as best she can.

Her first spell weaves a prison of ice around the scorpion. Icy Prison, DC 24 Reflex save. On a failed save, the scorpion is helpless and takes 14 cold damage per round. On a successful save, the scorpion is instead Entangled and takes 14 cold damage per round. Ice has hardness 0, 42 hp, and Break DC 29.

Her second follows almost instantly, bathing the scorpion, its rider, and the closest ash giant in a shower of golden sparks. Quickened Glitterdust, DC 22 Will save. Affects scorpion, rider, and red ash giant.

Raen loses invisibility, but still has images to help her.

Ushyle spurs the phantom steed forward, inciting it to charge White. As he nears, he activates bane vs. giants on Milani's Thorn.

Approach undoubtedly provokes.

Hamilton approaches and can see the enemy within striking distance! Officially on map. No rewinding, but next turn starts here.

The giants know that the scorpion is the only hope, so they do what they can to break it out:
Red ATK 1: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (2) + 20 = 22 for DMG: 2d6 + 11 ⇒ (6, 3) + 11 = 20
Red ATK 2: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (6) + 20 = 26 for DMG: 2d6 + 11 ⇒ (2, 4) + 11 = 17

White ATK 1: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (12) + 20 = 32 for DMG: 2d6 + 11 ⇒ (2, 3) + 11 = 16
The scorpion is free! The giant laughs and turns on Ushyle:
White ATK 2: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21 MISS

The remaining giant goes after Doxon:
Blue ATK 1: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (8) + 20 = 28 MISS
Blue ATK 2: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (8) + 20 = 28 MISS

The now free scorpion goes after the chains with its claws, but not before snapping its tail! It strikes once each at Ushyle and Doxon:
Sting v. Ushyle: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (9) + 23 = 32 for DMG: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (6, 2) + 13 = 21 and FORT
Sting v. Doxon: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (14) + 23 = 37 for DMG: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (1, 1) + 13 = 15 and FORT

Stalwart means there is no effect at all.

Ushyle is focused on the giants and, while he certainly notices the scorpion, he is able to withstand the poison. Focusing on White, he continues his assault.

If White drops, he will five-foot-step toward Blue, or the scorpion if Blue is already down.

The poison begins soursing through Doxon's veins. It immediately begins to take its toll: STR DMG: 1d4 ⇒ 4 AND DEX DMG: 1d4 ⇒ 3 AND CON DMG: 1d4 ⇒ 1

Despite the poison Doxon tears the giant to pieces, literally. The dead corpse hits the caldera floor and all eyes turn to the Warpriest!

The battle hinges on the scorpion, so Raen resorts to repetition. Another prison of ice is weaved around the massive beast.

Icy Prison on the scorpion again, DC 24 Reflex. Details as above (26 cold damage total now).

I will also be using my last Quickened spell, but which depends on the scorpion's save. My choice will not affect the scorpion pen activity, I think.

"Lykophos! Can you knock out the giant with some dream dust?" Vael calls out as he flies forward.
Double move for Vael, moving another 140ft. He's asking her to use Dream Powder on the giant, but with haste her fly speed is 90ft so... she probably still needs to double move. She would go 180ft, getting her onto the map.
