Will: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18 Also I am neutral

Round 3:
Ozak: Attack
Baddies: ATK
Val: Arrows!
Tysi: Go
Kai: Go
Hal: Go
Balik: Go

Knowing he doesn't actually move very fast, she'll call to her gecko, Charge! and will direct it to move forward. She will then shoot at electrically charged arrows.

First: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30 and if it hits will deal 1d6 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14 arrow damage, plus 1d6 ⇒ 2 electric damage.

Second: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32 and if it hits will deal 1d6 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12 arrow damage, plus 1d6 ⇒ 2 electric damage.

Third: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28 and if it hits will deal 1d6 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11 arrow damage, plus 1d6 ⇒ 5 electric damage.
Crit-Confirm?: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19 and if it hits will deal 1d6 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12 arrow damage, plus 1d6 ⇒ 3 electric damage.

She'll target the green first, and if it happens to drop she'll move on to target red.

Tysi's arrows slam into the demon. The electricity crackles over his skin, but it doesn't seem to have any effect.

The arrow heads do though. Nevertheless, the demon's resistance to attacks not infused with holy power keep it standing.

Round 3:
Ozak: Attack
Baddies: ATK
Val: Arrows!
Tysi: More arrows!
Kai: Go
Hal: Go
Balik: Go

Varlaniel lets out a cry of anguish as the two elves whither and perish at the Demon's onslaught and the golden haired elf let's out a curse on the demon. Ignoring the slug as a lesser foe he takes flight, circling around the Hezrou to behind the lumbering creature, he strikes out with his crackling blade.

blessing for +2 ac, ref and atk. Procoke from the leech

spellstrike, cold iron, magic, silver, adamantine: 1d20 + 15 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 15 + 2 = 28 for damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 2 = 13 and shocking grasp: 8d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 5, 5, 2, 6, 1, 4) = 32

The hit doesn't come easily, but it does connect. Kai's strike causes a roar that clearly includes a dose of fear.

The herzou is teetering.

The slug tries to bite Kai, Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

Round 3:
Ozak: Attack
Baddies: ATK
Val: Arrows!
Tysi: More arrows!
Kai: Magus-fu
Hal: Go
Balik: Go

"Meet your Elven death!" Hal cries over the thunder of his oathbow.

Will Save: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (15) + 16 = 31 Also neutral!

Balik looks down at the dead elves. He makes his decision, diving to the nearest elf and slapping his hand down upon the pointy ear's chest. "LIVE YE GREAT POOF!"

Using Breath of Life from First Aid Gloves on the nearest elf! Breath of Life: 5d8 + 9 ⇒ (5, 5, 1, 4, 3) + 9 = 27 healing!

Victory in his grasp, Hal can't deliver as all but one of his arrows goes wide. Balik quickly saves an elf. The elf is delirious, but alive!!!!

All vs flat footed. and wow these dice hate me.

Only a single strike makes it through the demon from the invisible ninja. The demon is weakening, but still quite dangerous.

Balik stands closes to the source of pain, and can see him just fine, so it goes berserk trying to drop the man:

Harpoon 1: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (11) + 23 = 34 for DMG: 2d6 + 16 ⇒ (3, 6) + 16 = 25

HP 44/89 Balik is harpooned and bitten by the foul frog thing! Fort: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 He nearly vomits, overcome by the sheer stench of the demon.

"Ach! I've smelt worse ye great poof! Why I personally humped yer mama and she smell'd twice as bad as ye!" With a ZAP! Balik's boots of escape kick in and he appears standing over the elf who lives.

"Izzat the best ye got, froggy? Bring it, I'm still standin'!"

Since he missed, I get an Attack of Opportunity for each missed strike from Snake Fang!
Unarmed THWACK!: 1d20 + 13 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 13 + 1 = 28 for 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (6, 5) + 5 = 16 damage!
Unarmed THWACK!: 1d20 + 13 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 13 + 1 = 15 for 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (6, 6) + 5 = 17 damage!

Before shouting his lunch all over the demon, Balik scores a hit with his fangs of the snake

Round 4:
Ozak: ATK
Baddies: ATK
Val: Go
Tysi: Go
Kai: Go
Hal: Go
Balik: Puke

Channeling his true 'Magus-fu', Varlaniel focuses his mind and uses it to enhance his striking power, trying to destroy the demon in a true flurry of strikes. First charging his blade with crackling electricity before cutting into the demon's back.

Arcane strike for +5 to hit with spell-combat, BoF for extra attack

Spell-combat: 1d20 + 15 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 15 + 5 + 2 = 34 for damage: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11 + Shocking Grasp: 8d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 5, 6, 6, 5, 5, 6) = 42

Spell-combat: 1d20 + 10 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 10 + 5 + 2 = 29 for damage: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

Kai's powerful show of martial might finally lays the demon low. Unable to teleport away, it dies in the Tanglebriar!

Whatever foul magics kept the leeches here melt away and they go off on their own. You are free to cut open the chrysalises and extract the elves within. Only one elf passed away in the battle, which is FAR better than the Uprooters expected to fare.

The leader, Lanverel, weakly offers thanks before questioning you His anger quickly overcomes his wounds. The questions are fast, "
why the bloody hell would anyone have permitted “mercenaries” into Kyonin to perform a rescue mission rather than sending “proper elves?”

He further demands to know the name of every officer responsible for abandoning him and his comrades. While the other elves look sheepishly on, you do not receive a hero's welcome.

sense motive: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20

What an ungrateful snot the thought flashes through Varlaniel's mind as the golden haired elf looks at the demon ichor staining his diplomat's robes. Cleaning 'Maiden's Kiss' before sheathing the blade at his hip and turning his attention to the other Uprooters, ignoring the captain. He gives a low bow.

Cure Moderate wounds for each Uprooter

Sense motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

Ozak will quietly inform everyone what the elf is thinking. But he doesn't know why.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (18) + 23 = 41
Know Religion: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (5) + 19 = 24

"HURK!" Balik manages to finish losing his lunch in the briars. He straightens up and staggers over toward the elves. "Well, I canna speak fer my comrades, but I've nae been a proper elf since I was 10, laddie. We came ta help ye and yer men, and it were a sad state o' affairs what brought us here. But yer vengeance's between ye and the Lady ye serve, lad. But might wanna temper yer wrath with some wisdom, if nae fer yerself then fer yer people there. Vengeance's a dish best served cold, I hear tell. And yer Lady will savor a good cold dish well seasoned o'er a hot one that gets yer pointy ears in a mess o' trouble."

Feel free to make diplomacy checks

-Posted with Wayfinder

diplomacy, assist: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11

Diplomacy, in an untrained, ill-advised sort of way: 1d20 ⇒ 10

"Is it not better that you are saved and better to talk through the differences?" Ozak says.

Diplo: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (19) + 15 = 34

Seeing how silver-tongued Ozak is, Val simply removes the Belt he's borrowed and hands it to the elf leader, letting actions speak for him

I can't fail a Dilomacy check to aid, so Ozak has a 36 :-)

Ozak nailed it. At a charity fundraiser tonight, so I'll do denouement and chronicles tomorrow.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Ozak's words cut through the trauma, and the elf gradually calms down. With Fihralaz defeated and with the assistance of any surviving elves, you have little difficulty escaping from Tanglebriar and reuniting with the Uprooters at Mount Armiya. Another group of elves arrives soon thereafter to receive a report of your success and escort you safely out of Kyonin.

Waiting for you at the border is a messenger who informs you of General Tenasi’s appreciation of your service and the promise of elven allies at a time and place to be named by the Pathfinder Society. The society also rewards you by paying a monetary bonus for a job well done.

Well played Pathfinders! I managed to sneak in a bit of time, and I reported the session. Chronicles are going to be PMed ASAP! I'll leave the thread open until about lunch time tomorrow!"

In retrospect I did, in fact, crit with that arrow, due to Bless Weapon!

Nice work everyone

Thanks for running, S, and thanks for playing, everyone! Val, I'll see you at Eyes.

Cheers Guys for a great game, see you around!

Thanks for running, S, and thanks for playing, everyone! Val, I'll see you at Eyes.

I see what you did there (heh, *see* what I did there??)
