Escape from Azlant Ridge (Inactive)

Game Master Gilthanis

Dm 16 doesn't hit me

1d20 + 15 ⇒ (20) + 15 = 35 maintain
1d20 + 15 ⇒ (14) + 15 = 29 Pin

Balthe quickly moves and pins the troll

just give up!

Balthe, do you not lose Dex when grappling? So you would essentially be flat footed or did I miss something somewhere. Also can I full round attack if I am the grappled not the grappler?

Balthe easily restrains and pins the brutish troll.

Initiative tracker: round 2; 20' from group at corner of western turn.

Balthe: done (pinning troll, advantage)
Wulfgar: attack hit (in front of troll)
Liam: trip troll (15' back from troll)
Nils: go (back 20' from troll)
Troll: (33 damage, prone, grappled)

Grappled Condition gives a -4 on Dex, which would still make his AC at least 18.

Now a stupid question maybe but how long has it been since we got the "encounter" with the dwarves at the door and now. I ask because, when they opened the door I had around 20 minutes left on my Tongues spell.

Tongues is gone. It would have expired during the mini-feast.

I did my turn already- move up and attack. Had a good roll and all.

so top of round two right?

seeing that the troll will not communicate with Balthe, Wulfgar attacks the creature again, making sure not to hit Balthe.

bwa ha ha, be holdink him still bouncer Balthe, makink sure I am not hittink you Da? Comrrrrade. I am havink some acid we can be givink him to be drrrrinkink later ha ha ha

full round
MW Greatsword 1st attack: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (11) + 14 = 25 for damage: 2d6 + 16 ⇒ (3, 5) + 16 = 24
MW Greatsword 2nd attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21 for damage: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (5, 1) + 13 = 19

The troll falls unconscious from the onslaught of the group.

anyone have acid?

Current damage troll: 85

No acid here. Unless we found it since the shipwreck, I'm not optimistic. We really didn't start with much. Anyone have acid splash? Somehow I doubt it since we lost our arcane caster.

As Wulfgar so eloquently indicated, he has at least one flask of acid.

Wulfgar nods at the troll, fishing out one of his four acid flasks, and saying to Balthe

bwa ha ha It is good to be sharrrreink a drink with others rrrright bouncer balthe. be holdink his mouth open and I will be poorink it!

Wulfgar poors the acid in the monsters mouth and on its face.

do I need to roll an attack if I use a full round like a coup-de-grace?

damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

that's awful, do I need to use a second or a third?

Wulfgar with his acid is enough to stop the regenerative qualities of the troll. The group kills off the very real threat.

Wulfgars smile turns into a fake frown, his right eye spinning and twitching, as he tosses the empty flask and stands up shouldering his greatsword he says with a gleam in his left eye

Awww, I am thinkink our new frrrriend is not likink his beverrrrage Bouncer Balthe, Shall we be seeink if smelly lizard is havink any more comrrrrades we can be offerink beverrrrages to?

Wulfgar will jump in line behind whoever heads off down the tunnel.

Balthe stands up and shakes out his arms then follows along and pulls his javelin

"No matter, we still have to go help out the dwarves. Let's get going. "

The group goes down the tunnel, turns west, continues down the tunnel and then turns north again. After about 5 more minutes, you come to a stairwell leading up. You cautiously head upwards, and are in a landing.

You head down the tunnel leading out from the landing, it goes west 30' then turns south. You hear a commotion, but it sounds fairly far away at this time.

I will emulate Gorum; armor plate, greatsword, enlarge...be the biggest bastard in the battle, need to add spikes when I get the chance

hearing the commotion Wulfgar asks

Should we be castink spells herrrre or when we are gettink closer, comrrrrades?

Wulfgar only has enlarge on his mind now, so if anyone wants bulls strength or something {check his spells) speak up now

Nothing for me. Dex-based damage dealer here :)

I will never object to bull's strength.

"If we can hear them, it's best we not tarry too long because they might hear us. "

Wulfgar nods to Nils, smiling a wolfish grin, both eyes clearly focused on the fellow northerner, laying his hand on Nils shoulder

Bwa, ha, ha, Strength of gorum, ha, ha, ha,

bull's strength, 6 minutes,

looking at Balthe

who is next?

Wulfgar has magic vestment, I believe we are both @ 20, Wulfgar will be at 19 when he enlarges, but will use it on Balthe if he has no other way of increasing his AC

You travel another minute or so, making multiple turns and the sounds of battle get louder and louder. You then reach the source of the fighting, you see a brute of a troglodyte before you. He wields a battleaxe, wearing a suit of half-plate. It appears to be locked in battle with Rory the Dwarven king.

Rory is not alone, as he has brought his own army to combat the small army before you. You gave them boxed in, but it apears to be a hard battle as a dwarf falls before your eyes at the ace of the brutish trog.

The smell is overwhelming, worse then it has ever been.

DC 21 fort save or be sick for 10 rounds
Tge trog army is locked in battle with the dwarves. The tunnels here are 20 feet wide, and 15 feet tall. Your group is 30 feet from the giant battle. Thd trog leader is closer to you than the dwarfs.

I was waiting to see if Balthe wanted magic vestment, if not I was going to cast it on Wulfgar and then enlarge person, can we do one or both of those retroactively or am I out of luck?

Might want to just put it on yourself, you are going to literally be a very big target ;)
Fortitude save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

I don't seem to be in the initiative list. From my number, I think I'm first.

Nils rages once the enemy comes into sight.

fort save: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30

Ranger focus on the leader. Then he will move up and swing at him.

to hit: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16 meh such bipolar rolling

Balthe would've taken a bull STR as well

low bad: 1d100 ⇒ 451d100 ⇒ 42

You can cast vestment on whoever is fine with me. If you have 2 bull's then you can cast both (Nils/Balthe). Enlarge is fine with me. Nils you are second after dwarf priest but essentially yes you could act.

Nils rushes forward, focusing all his might and training on the obvious troglodyte leader. Hi swing, while catching the enemy unaware, sails wide and clangs into the floor. He has caught the attention of the leader, and he wonders how much pain he may be feeling soon.

The troglodye dressed in hide, looks back at the enemies to come aid the filthy dwarves. It clutches its holy symbol, and stares at Wulfgar.

wulfgar: DC 13 will save versus "command"e

sorry Balthe only had the one, I stocked up on enlarge person, I can change that the next time we take a nap :) before I attack wont to here what DM Stylz says about the magic vestment and enlarge self

fort. save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

Wulfgar, feeling nauseous, but not wanting to soil the inside of his new helmet, swallows the bile and continues pressing on

just a little fluff, after DM Stylz posts he will attack

Edit: Ninja'd by the DM, will post an attack in a moment

AC 22, enlarged 5 min, so 50 rounds?

Wulfgar laughing maniacally moves into combat beside Nils and attacks the large lizard

If there is not enough room for Wulfgar to get to the trog leader he will go after the priest, if he cant get to the priest any old trog will do :)

MW Greatsword attack: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (12) + 14 = 26 for damage: 3d6 + 18 ⇒ (4, 2, 2) + 18 = 26

@DM Stylz, if it is Command he is casting, he needs to actually speak and say what he wants Wulfgar to do, as it is both a verbal and language dependent spell. But not sure if it will matter much.

Liam started shouting. "We got them where we want them, now let's finish this! Let the hammer strike the anvil!!"
He moved forward whip in hand, ready to strike at the trogs.
Inspire Courage on all allies (both the party and the dwarves). +2 morale bonus on saving throws against charm and fear effects and a +2 competence bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls.
Moved forward to stand behind Nils, hoping to defend him from the trog leader.

--------------------

Liam, inspires his allies, granting them stronger wills than the enemy, and he bolsters the Dwarves as well. The Dwarven Warriors press the attack, the 4 attack the normal troglodytes and each deal some hurt but they remain standing. The troglodytes retaliate and deal some blows of their own. The dwarves are hardy and remain in the fight. The Dwarven king, looks towards your group joining the fray.

Lads, press the attack. They have found the rear tunnel, let us drive these foul beasts to the depths of Golarion! By TORAG'S hamner!!

king on leader: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 251d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19
dam?: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

The king lands a solid blow, but the superhuman troglodyte seems unphased. The armor clad enemy, clutches a holy symbol, a blast of negative energy washes over everyone. The Dwarven Warriors fall, their wills strong but not strong enough. The Dwarven priest is in pain, but still in the fight.

DC 15 will save for all or: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 1, 6) = 11
king will: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

will save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9 "Dammit I hate that!"

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14 Balthe grunts as he is blasted with negative energy.

No more of that!

Balthe charges through the fray and

Disarm: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 11 + 1 = 27 snatches the holy symbol out of the leaders hands

also if I beat his CMD by more than 10 he loses whatever he had in the other hand as well. Which, since I am not holding any weapons I also now have in my hand

will: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25

wulfgar does above attack, with Liam's inspire courage the attack and damage will bothe be 28. What is the will save?

Wulfgar channel save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21

the first save was for the dpell command, the second was negative channel energy

Balthe rushes foward, and snatches the holy symbol from the clutches of the leaders grasp. It growls at Balthe. Wulfgar rushes forward, but is unable to get to the leader, he is able to reach the priest and cleaves the scaly priest in half...literalky from head to toe.

The Dwarven priest, takes a swing at one of the lesser troglodytes and easily crushes its skull in.

Nils again tries to hit the leader.

Nils, takes two swings. The first nearly catches the beast of a threat in the collarbone. The slash is deep, but doesn't dig as deep as Nils would have liked. The blow is still nasty however.

Will Save vs channel: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
"Tremble before the might of our combined force you foul creatures!"
Eventhough he is still sickened by the foul smell, Liam unleashes a vicious tirade directed towards the Trogs.
Casting Blistering Invective while maintaining the inspire courage as a free action.

Liam, sends insults and an assault of words towards the troglodytes. All the least Trogs are clearly intimidated, all drop and one even catch fire. The leader, laughs at him. His eyes clearly set on inflicting damage and on those before him.

The Dwarven king, rages and takes two swings at the troglodyte leader. Too bad in his anger the king missed both swings.

1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 211d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14

The troglodyte leader sets his eyes on Nils. An uncontrollable rage overcomes him and unleashes a barrage of attacks, both man made and its viscous claws.

axe, axe, bite, claw at nils: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (17) + 18 = 351d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 191d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 151d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29

Not that it will make a difference but he would have done so anyway, so here goes:

Liam tried to distract the Troglodyte leader making it so his attacks might miss.
Aid another for AC on attack 1: 1d20 + 13 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 13 - 2 = 27 for +3 AC
Aid another for AC on attack 2: 1d20 + 13 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 13 - 2 = 13 for +3 AC
Aid another for AC on attack 3: 1d20 + 13 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 13 - 2 = 26 for +3 AC
Aid another for AC on attack 4: 1d20 + 13 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 13 - 2 = 22 for +3 AC

Balthe begins to kick and punch with fury

Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 11 - 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 11 - 1 + 1 - 2 = 13 for 1d8 + 9 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 1 + 4 = 17
Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 11 - 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 11 - 1 + 1 - 2 = 23 for 1d8 + 9 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 9 + 1 + 4 = 22
Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 1 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 6 + 1 - 1 - 2 = 19 for 1d8 + 9 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 1 + 4 = 17

Non lethal to take him prisoner

Don't forget, inspire gives +2 on attack and damage at our current level, not +1, which I forgot to calculate into my own Aid Another checks, but as I had stated, they didn't really matter due to the numbers the trog leader rolled :)

Oh add +1 to all my attacks and damage

are there any other troglodytes left? Can Wulfgar get near the leader? how injured is Nils?

You would have thwarted the bute attack, readjusted damage for Nils. Wulfgar, no more Trogs are left and yes you can get to the leader, but it will be a single attack only.

As the greatsword sunders the lizard holy-trog from nape to neck, Wulfgar lifts the bloody sword over head and stepping closer to the remaining reptile he attacks

bwa ha ha this one better challenge ha ha ha

MW Greatsword attack: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17 for damage: 3d6 + 18 ⇒ (3, 3, 1) + 18 = 25

Liam charged his whip with arcane power and tried to trip the Trog leader like he did with the cave troll.
"You are all alone, now you will perish!!"

free action to keep the inspire up. Swift action for arcane strike. Full attack exchanging attacks for trips until he goes down.

Wulfgar takes a mighty swing, but it clangs off the half-plate. The attack gives Nils an opening to deliver a deep gash to the enemies' chest. Liam takes the opening afforded by Nils as he is able to wrap his whip around the leg of the beast of an enemy and bang him crashing to the ground. He follows it up with another quick lashing.

1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 241d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10
1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

The Dwarven king, Rory takes two swings. The first connects with the now squirming troglodyte, another gash open on its leg.

The troglodyte, still very much pissed off, attack from its back, exacting revenge on Nils. His flurry of attacks all scraping against his armor, despite his angered state.

axe: 1d20 + 15 - 4 ⇒ (6) + 15 - 4 = 17
axe: 1d20 + 10 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 10 - 4 = 16
bite: 1d20 + 8 - 4 ⇒ (13) + 8 - 4 = 17
claw: 1d20 + 8 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 8 - 4 = 9

The Dwarven priest, channels energy to heal everyone.

2d6 ⇒ (1, 5) = 6

Let's end this. Night night

[ooc] having given it enough non lethal to not kill it outright Balthe drops elbows and a knee on it.
