Dungeon of Dread - Team 1 (Inactive)

Game Master Grimmy

Trying to keep the hobgoblin distracted, Lueck continues to use his dagger.

AoO 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Damage 1d4 + 0 ⇒ (2) + 0 = 2

AoO: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9, dmg: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Round 2

Biting back a curse as the bat swarm swarms over her Hana decides to take up the better part of valor and retreat from the swarm.

Stepping into the chamber again she rummages in her backpack and draws out a torch, maybe fire would keep them at bay?

Move 20' into the chamber and draw torch.

Lueck calls out "Would one of those smelly arrows chase off the bats?!?"

Lueck's dagger slices harmlessly through purple smoke as the insubstantial creature filters out of the hall, replaced by swarming bats.

Round 2

Cairenn frowns at Lueck's cry, not knowing the answer to that himself. "....I suppose it's worth a shot, but Kara and Hana, get clear before I loose the shot!"

I think based on her text that Hana moved, but on the map she shows as still in the swarm to me.

Cairenn draws one of the strange arrows they found, nocks it to his bow, and readies to shoot into the swarm as soon as his friends are clear.

Readying shot to fire at the wall, basically right where Hana's token currently is, so that the arrow hits the wall and billows out its smoke hopefully into the swarm... AC 5 to target a square

Bow + Stinky arrow, vs AC 5, -any penalties that may apply: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

Round 2:

Erich looks up in time to see Cairenn aiming one of the muck arrows at the swarm. He gulps. "Oh, man, I don't want to get caught in that!" He quickly takes a step back, moving into the corner beside Leuck. He raises his daggers defensively, keeping a cautious eye on the swarm.

Erich is taking a free five-foot step back, and readying an action to attack the swarm if it approaches him. He is also switching to fighting defensively for this round (-4 to attacks, +2 dodge bonus to AC). His AC is 21 for this round.

Readied Action: Dagger Attack: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 1 - 4 = 22
(Including bonus from inspire and penalty from fighting defensively)
Dagger Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

I think based on her text that Hana moved, but on the map she shows as still in the swarm to me.

Sorry, didn't realize I should move myself -_-

Round 2

With Erich there to watch his back, Lueck sheathes his dagger and starts to look for the right trigger stone to open the secret door he believes is behind him.

Know:Nature to ID the bat swarm for vulnerabilities and immunities

Lueck is seeing the seem of the hidden door and the mortarless flagstone switch, but he also recalls the hazardous way the last hidden door collapsed inward when it's switch was activated.

Belated Knowledge nature-- but Cairenn is a city boy: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Round 2

Kára dives out of the swarm and into the main room.

"Give it a shot!" She says hoping the arrow works.

K. Narure: 1d20 ⇒ 15

Cairenn looses a stink arrow and the small passageway fills with choking putrid smoke.

All sight obscured beyon 5'.

Kara, Erich and Lueck gain the nauseated condition.

Gah, sorry! I think my browser was remembering cache or something from when Paizo's site was down yesterday because it would not load at all until I kicked it a few times.

Round 2

"I really hope that disgusting smoke plays well with fire," Lyr murmurs, but she's halfway through a quiet chant in a mysterious and melodic language before receiving an answer. Action before thought, as usual, from the druidess...

"Gwirodydd acw o dân a fflamau, glywed dy alwad, clywed dy enw! Asteraythem! Dewch nawr!"

Lyrasael flings her right hand out, palm flattened and fingers slightly curved. Springing to life just above the curvature of her hand is a tiny fey-like being no bigger than a baby chick, its form effervescent and vague and its body made up of smouldering embers. It glides sightlessly away from its summoner on autumn leaf-coloured wings, disappearing into the putrid cloud, though Lueck and Erich may spy an enormous globe of fire suddenly explode into existence right in the midst of the mess.

Casting flaming sphere on the area where I last saw the bat swarm.

Fire Damage: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 5) = 13 +50% damage from an area effect makes this 19 damage.

Round 2 - Batgob

The familiar click of a switch is heard on the opposite side of the secret door, and the flagstones burst inward collapsing on Erich and Lueck in a deadfall.

Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 3) = 5

DC 15 Reflex for half damage.

Erich and Lueck can make out the reformed Hobgoblin standing outside the edge of the stinking cloud.

Reflex save 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23 vs. wall trap.

Round 3 Go!

Round 3

"Guys? You ok in there?" Hana steps forward and calls for Lueck and Erich at the sound of the wall coming rumbling down, concern evident in her voice.

Raising her glowing holy symbol high she channels her concern into it and sends out a burst of healing light.

channel energy: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 2) = 7

Round 3

"I can't see a damned thing," Cairenn mutters as he tries to peer through the cloud of smoke his own arrow shot resulted in. He is, perhaps, slightly peeved that it was his half-sister's spell that apparently conflagrated the bat swarm, and not his own charms and magics.

"The rose smells sweet before it rots--
"And foul mist may yet hide pure souls
"And when the cloud of darkness parts
"They shall achieve their brave goals!"

Personally, he thinks that one's a bit rubbish, but sometimes it's the best you can do. He squints into the mist, keeping an arrow at full tension on his bow.

Readied attack for if the mist clears, cover, firing into combat, bard: 1d20 + 4 - 4 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 - 4 - 4 + 1 = 1 Lol.

Still providing Bardic Performance bonus, but this is nearly my last round of it, so good luck, guys. :3

Round 3

"Me either," Lyr agrees, shooting a sidewards glare at her little brother and rolling her eyes.

"Erich! Lueck! Where is that dratted thing?" The elf raises her voice, shouting out over Cairenn's poetry (rather rudely so indeed). "Let me know and I'll push the fireball in its direction!"

"... but, uh, you might want to get out of the way first!"

Ready action: move the flaming sphere should I be given directions. :P

Fire Damage, if it comes into play: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 6) = 11

In a clumsy, amateurish move, Lueck lunges forward to try and get away from the acrid stench filling his lunges and stinging his eyes. He barely sees the hobgoblin as he lurches forward into (and hopefully past) him.

Acrobatics to move to through hobgoblin's square without AoO. 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14, DC 5+hobby's CMD. He ends up in the square just below the hobgoblin. I moved him on the map, but it made his icon disappear!

Coughing and gagging, Lueck tries to answer Lyr. "Here!" he manages to get out, but the rest of the directions disappear in a fit of retching.

He still has his dagger out, so I think he is still considering flanking, even though he can't attack right now.

The possessed hobgoblin slashes at Lueck with his scimitar as he tumbles past.

AoO vs Lueck
Scimitar: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18
Damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Miss?: 1d100 ⇒ 9 Miss!

Round 3

With reluctance Kára moves through the vile smelling fog after the others.

Fort: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

With nearly superhuman reflexes the possessed hobgoblin wheels around from the swing that missed Lueck and carries the same momentum in an arc, slicing into Kara!

AoO vs Kara
Scimitar: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22
Damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Miss?: 1d100 ⇒ 95 hit

To it's surprise, a broiling ball of flame rolls through the stinking vapors. It seems with enough allies entering battle to triangulate the location of the enemy, Lyr has sent her flaming sphere lumbering forth. It bowls into the hobgoblin, burning him badly.

Ouch. Who the hell takes Combat Reflexes?! oh wait. I did. =p

DC 16 Fort Save to shake off the nauseated condition when you leave the stink bomb. Otherwise it lasts 1d4 rounds.

Lueck Fort: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

Kara and Lueck are cured.

Fixed your icon Lueck.

Round 3:

The fish-gut reek from the muck arrow mixes with the scent of charred bat corpses, burning a terrifying scent into Erich's nostrils. He coughs, gags, and stumbles backwards as rocks tumble all around him.

Reflex Save vs. Door Trap: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 Erich takes 5 damage from the falling rocks. He then five-foot steps out of the cloud. He will forgo his move action for this turn.

Round 3 - Batgob

The possessed hobgoblin steps deftly between Erich and Lueck, intent on bringing Kara down.

vs Kara
Scimitar-Power Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
Damage+Power Attack: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
Miss!

Erich Fort: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
Erich's nausea is cured.

Round 4 Go!

Round 4

Kára steps back and attacks the powerful creature with equal force.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 2 - 1 = 8

Round 4

"Balls to this," Cai mutters under his breath, and leaves off with his inspiring power ballad. He's got to plunge into that choking miasma of mist, and it's hard to talk at the same time.

(End performance, leaving 1 emergency round in reserve. Wouldn't have made a difference for Kara's hit anyway...)

Throwing his forearm up over his nose and mouth, Cairenn drops his bow and plunges into the grossness of the cloud.

Fort save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

His precautions seem to have helped him. Cairenn plunges through the mist--ugh, he is going to need such a bath later-- and dashes through, drawing his morningstar as he goes.

Double move through the stinking fog cloud, attempting a DC 10 Acro check to move at normal speed, drawing weapon

Acro: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

He stumbles out the other side and permits himself a grin that fades as he realizes he's right next to the hobgoblin. Oops.

"Hello!" he says to Erich, Lueck, and Kara.

erich and Lueck, don't forget you were both within my channel radius last round.

Edit: Cai and Kára, you too.

Wasn't hurt until after the channel.

Round 4

Last round of flaming sphere, so I removed the circle.

Seeing Cai dash into the smoke, Lyr grits her teeth and follows suit, taking in a deep breath of the fresh air (well, "fresh"; it still had the faintest taste of hobgoblin sweat to it, and she was hardly one for the smell of the underground--but it was better than that putrid cloud!) before trying to dash her way through.

Double move.

Lyr's Fort: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Ruan's Fort: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

Ruan makes the unfortunate decision to stay perched on his mistress' shoulder. The poor little hawk suddenly turns a shade of green, feeling quite woozy...

Acrobatics DC 10 to move through the fog at full speed: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

Lyr nevertheless continues on until she very nearly runs into Erich. "Ahh! ...Oh, it's just you. Sorry 'bout that!" Luckily, she has a lithe and nimble frame that allows her to reasonably easily move past to join Kara down the side passage.

Acrobatics to avoid Hobbo's AOO: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

Round 4:

The narrow hall quickly fills with Erich's companions. He catches his breath, nods to Cairenn and Lyrasael as they arrive. "Ugh. Can we just break that last muck arrow? I don't want to use those any more..."

Having recovered from the stench (Although I'm sure I'll never be able to eat fish again, he thinks), Erich slips around behind the possessed hobgoblin, flipping his daggers into a backhanded grip as he does. He glances past the hobgoblin to Leuck on the other side, and catches his eye.

While Leuck distracts the hobgoblin, Erich lunges in, plunging his daggers into the hobgoblin's vulnerable midsection.

Erich will use a five-foot step to take a flanking position behind the hobgoblin, across from Leuck. He will then launch into his patented Deadly Double Dagger maneuver:
Dagger Attack +Flank: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 5 + 2 = 26
Critical Confirmation Roll: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
Dagger Damage + Sneaky Attack: 1d4 + 1 + 1d8 ⇒ (4) + 1 + (7) = 12
Additional Damage if Critical Confirmed: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Dagger Attack +Flank: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 2 = 12
Dagger Damage + Sneaky Attack: 1d4 + 1 + 1d8 ⇒ (1) + 1 + (1) = 3

Round 4

As Lueck regains control of his gag reflex, he sees Erich's blades flashing at the hobgoblin with remarkable skill. Hey! Erich's striking when the goblin's glancing at me! Trying to further draw the hobgoblin's attention, Lueck launches into a flurry of garish strikes, none of which seem to land effectively. I hope that gives Erich another opening!

Aid another for Erich, bonus to hit next round 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7. Fails. Sorry!

Erich's crit confirms on the nose! 7 damage.

The creature slices Lyr as she passes.

Scimitar: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31
Confirm: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14 no
Damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Round 4

Staring after the everyone as they plunge into the foul smelling cloud Hana gulps as she finds herself the last one remaining at this side of it. Gritting her teeth the mumbles a 'Fine' and, holding her breath, plunges in after them.

Fort DC 16: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Stumbling on through with tears in her eyes from the foul cloud Hana finds herself on the other side, gulping for air, facing the golbin-bat-thing with her sword in hand.

Round 4

"It wasn't my idea!" Cairenn protests, peevishly, to Erich. Then he sees his half-sister get sliced by the hobgoblin, and his eyes narrow.

Wordlessly (for once) he swings his morningstar at the hobgoblin.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

...and misses horribly, alas.

I see two turns for Cai in round 4?

Round 4 - Batgob

The twisted creature steps down onto the stairwell beside Erich still pursuing Kara, but the steep steps trip it up a little leaving it momentarily with it's guard down.

Steep stairs = difficult terrain, no 5' step. Provokes AoO from everyone but Kara and Lyr.

It swings madly at Kara with it's cruel scimitar.

vs Kara
w/ Power Attack
Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27
Confirm Crit: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22
Damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
Damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

Round 5 Go!

Round 5

Bleed to -11

Bah, sorry about that. I saw my name with arrows on the main page, but I should have read more closely to look at what round we were in. Entirely my fault. If permitted to do something else for his round 5 action, he'll do the following. If not, the miss attack I rolled is his action for the turn.

Round 5

(attack of opportunity)
1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

"Dark death, stand at bay!" Cairenn cries when he sees Kára take such a painful blow and drop to the ground. He shouts quick words, and his free hand is wreathed in faint bluish light.

Standard to cast CLW, holding the charge. Moving SE, E, E, through Erich's square, then Kara's, then to stand on the far side of her. He is trying to use acrobatics to vault past the hobgoblin without provoking/and to jump over the stairs, if permitted.

Acrobatics when he leaves the first square the hob threatens, vs Hob CMD: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

(Assuming Cairenn can make it to his target square, he touches Kara to deliver the spell)

Cure light wounds: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Oh I left the arrows on your name? My fault then (-_-)

You can redo.

The hobgoblin is baffled by Cairenn's crazy gymnastics.

-1 and Stable

Round 5

With the fight shifting away from him, Lueck takes advantage and changes weapons.

Five foot step, drop dagger, ready bow and fire an arrow at the hobgoblin.

To hit 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Damage 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

AoO vs. Godby: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7, damage if hit: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Round 5

Cast Bless Defensively DC 17: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16 <-Fizzle

Taken completely off guard by the fluidity of the combat Hana's swing at the god-goblin goes wild, raising her symbol again she tries to summon the concentration to cast a spell to bolster her allies but seeing Kára cut down so mercilessly momentarily brakes her concentration and the spell fizzles.

Round 5:

"Kára!" Although Erich took a reflexive strike at the hobgoblin when it slipped past him, it wasn't enough. The white-haired cleric collapses to the ground, and Cairenn swoops in to stabilize her with his healing necromancy.

"Well done, Cairenn," Erich calls out, "let's take this creep down before he can come after her again!" He shoulder rolls across the top of the stairs, slipping in between the hobgoblin and Hana. He makes a quick jab with his left-handed dagger, slicing at the hobgoblin's shins.

First of all, here's Erich's attack of opportunity from earlier.
AoO Dagger: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
AoO Dagger Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

In this round, Erich will be moving five-feet to flank the hobgoblin across from Hana. Since the stairs are there, and are difficult terrain, he will have to make an acrobatics check to avoid an attack of opportunity:
Acrobatics -Armor Check vs. DC15: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 8 - 2 = 7
Erich provokes an attack.

Assuming he makes it into position, he will make a single attack at the hobgoblin:
Dagger Attack +Flanking: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 7 + 2 = 26
Dagger Damage +Sneaky Shin Attack: 1d4 + 1 + 1d8 ⇒ (3) + 1 + (4) = 8
