Male Half Orc Fighter/Wizard/Eldritch Knight 1/5/4

In a gesture of irritability and contempt, Korounuk open the sloth door.


Korounuk appears abeit a little late. Soon after two others you didn't see before appear with you. A tall beautiful woman with a thin sword in hand and rather revealing armor scraps that leave little to the imagination and a tall burly fellow with two well shined black iron war axes and thick skins wrapped around his body to provide some amount of protection.

Korounuk:
you see your fellow captives and in the middle of the cavern is a sleeping bear. His fur is gone save for ragged tufts here and there. The word sloth is carved over and over again into his flesh.

Ok, to clear things up. The seven of you stand in a large cavern, you can see and here each other but the only other thing you see is whatever I described in your spoiler. If you have any questions specifically about your encounter please spoiler it.

Without looking away from the fearsome warrior in front of him, Jarl replies "I have no idea what you're talking about. Rorik looks exactly like he did before we entered here."


Soren

Soren, ignoring all the others, faces the young lad. "I see. Its a fight you want. It's a shame you will die so young. Just give up now, I dont wish to kill you."

Init: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (10) + 11 = 21

Soren draws his weapons, their blue icy appearence glimmering in the dimmed room. I am a fetchling and if I am in an area of dim light, I get 50% concealment.

[Dice=Init] 1d20+11

As stated before the cavern is brightly lit by torches.

Just a friendly reminder. :) Nothing more.

"Funny you should say that, I see a chest with Envy, but it's my chest, in a manner of speaking. He is a handsome fellow though."

Cinder starts his Detect Magic spell again, certain this is an illusion.


Cinder:

All of you see the slender woman who just entered sigh and drop her weapon. She begins walking forward as if in a trance.

Not seeing anything else to do, though dreading the outcome, Saria slowly walks towards the chest and uses the spectral claws of her demon to try and open the chest.

Cinder sees his monstrous double lunging and strikes with his already-drawn katana.

"Well that's the thing... to me he looks like he's missing the bulk of his fur and he's got the word "sloth" marked all over him, presumably because of the door I just walked through."

The half-orc goes to the bear he sees, and starts trying to wake it up.


@Korounuk - the bear you see and Rorik (Jarl's bear) are different bears.

Jarl:
The man lunges at you and his sword passes through you and your armor as though it wasn't there. Will save please.

Cinder:
Your attack bounce harmlessly off of your counter part and it lets out a terrifying, inhuman laugh. The smoke mephit in the center of the cavern giggles and speaks. You can't defeat him, you must see past your envy of his greatness and realize the true enemy.

Saria:
The chest proves to be empty, but as you open it the room goes dark around you all you can see is the chest. A number five appears suspended in the air, it is made entirely of ruby.

Korounuk:
As you approach the bear a slab of it's skin peels off and falls to the ground, it quickly bubbles and morphs into a fully grown shaved bear. Initiative please. Initiative: 1d20 - 5 ⇒ (9) - 5 = 4


Soren

Soren sighs. "Alright, lets do this. Knew I'd have to fight my demons one day, didnt think it would be this literal." Soren ignores the broad with a death wish and focuses on his target, smirking slightly, he jumps forward, slashing at his enemy.
I take it he is 5 ft in front of me, so I'll 5 foot step, then use my move action to make him my favored target, giving me +3 to hit and damage. If not, I'll move and hit.
Attack: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34+3 if favored target
Damage: 1d6 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 6 + (1) = 13+3 if favored, last d6 is cold damage.
Sneak attack damage: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 1) = 9

1d6 ⇒ 3 damage. No need for a will save for Rorik, also it's your turn.

Soren:
He's about 20 feet away so you have to move to get to him. Your attack hits home dealing 19 damage. He strikes back at you with his great sword. Attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12 When he misses he cries out in pain and a bloody gash open his cheek from ear to mouth.

Jarl:
the first, second, and fourth attackers stop right before their blades touch you and dissipate. Take 4d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 1, 3) = 10 Damage. The remaining 4 Wraths speak in unison. I am Wrath your anger only makes me more powerful. Only in overcoming your own wrath will you defeat me.

"I was perfectly calm and had no interest in fighting you. When you attached me unprovoked, I simply defended myself. And now you say I need to master my anger? This is a stupid game that proves nothing." Ordering Rorik to stand down, Jarl lowers his weapon.

I won't be attacking again - or taking any defensive measures whatsoever.


Jarl:
Wrath laughs out loud and his copies disappear. You're better at this than I was. I had you pegged as the angry type but it seems you are in control. You have proven yourself capable of controlling your anger and therefore worthy of taking my place. Wrath hold out his hand obviously expecting you to take it.

Jarl, if you take his hand:
You feel a jolt of energy and the word Wrath burns bight against his chest. He flashes bright red and disappears leaving a painful burning sensation in your chest. Take 5 mythic ranks and this supernatural ability. Wrath (SU): Once per day when you are hit with a melee attack you may create a mirror image effect as the spell as an immediate action. Each of your copies can move independently and use this attack. Wrath's touch: +16 melee touch. 1d6 damage or 1d3 dex, str, or con damage.

Jarl hesitates for a moment, but then grasps his opponent's hand in a firm warrior's handshake. "So, you are real after all. I was almost convinced that you were an illusion!"

@GM: HOLY S&*%!!!!!!

"Sorry to do this, but you left me no other option."


Soren:
Ha, you think you are doing well. Your pride will be your undoing. you trike him three times. each time you do he seems to become a little more threatening. your second two attacks miss, and when they do two more large gashes open up, one on the other side of his face and one through his chest. [b]Only the humble can defeat me. If you think yourself worthy than your certainly are not.

GM:
Two quick questions as I begin reading through the multitude of options you just unlocked. :-) You mean Mythic Tiers, right? So, I'll get surge 1d8, mythic saving throws, three mythic feats, etc. Is that correct? Also, what's the Caster Level for the Wrath ability? Is it equal to my character level, my Mythic Tier, or something else? Now to decide between Champion or Guardian paths....


Male Human (Chelaxian) Magus (Kensai) 10 (HP 65, AC 24/T 20/FF 20, Fort +9, Ref +7, Will +7, Perc +12, Init +11)

INT check: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Cinder anticipates the katana strikes and deftly dodges. The true enemy, he ponders. Suddenly, he strikes at his counterpart's smoke mephit.

Attack
attack: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26
damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Crit confirm
attack: 1d20 + 12 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 12 + 4 = 32
damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Attack #2
attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Crit confirm #2 (katana is keen so 15-20 threat range)
attack: 1d20 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 4 = 15
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

The swordsman of envy seems real enough, so Cinder signals his own smoke mephit. Tephros breathes a cone of smoke in the doppelganger's direction.

(15-foot cone of black soot, DC 12 for half, 1d4 fire) Living creatures that fail their saves against the smoke mephit's breath weapon are tormented by burning eyes. This effect imposes a -4 penalty to AC and a -2 penalty on attack rolls for 3 rounds. The save DC is Constitution-based and includes a +1 racial bonus.


Jarl:
Mythic tier yes, with everything that entails. also that means 13 uses of mythic power a day. Caster level for the wrath effect is equal to your character level.

Cinder:
When you strike the mephit he disappears in puff of smoke. Your monstrous counter part's form seems to twist and morph into a young man in plain grey clothing. He walks over to you. Well done. You have defeated me, and faster than most. Always remember that the world is not necessarily how it seems. You are worthy of replacing me. Envy holds out his hand for you to shake.

Cinder, if you take his hand:
You feel a jolt of energy and quick sharp pain on the back of your left hand. Envy melds away into nothingness and the word envy is printed on your hand. Gain 5 mythic tiers and this supernatural ability. Envy (SU): once per day as a free action you can take a monstrous form of someone you see. This effectively makes you them except modified by the advanced creature template. You have their ability scores in this form and their equipment, you do not gain access to their spells, supernatural abilities, or feats.


Soren

Soren realizes whats going on. He looks at the man, now bloodied by wounds that his blades did not make. "Well then come at me. I am not going to attack. You seem like ou know what you're tlking about, and I cant hurt you... I'm sorry. This was never my fight in the first place..." Soren drops his blades, which twang when they hit the ground.
