GD VI: You Only Die Twice High Tier (Inactive)

Game Master Awenydd83

Alright. No further words or explorations. On we go..

The temple of Urgathoa stands somberly atop the low hill, it’s dark, smooth stone seeming to suck the hollow light from the air into itself, giving off an aura of darkness. Large double doors stand ajar, providing a glimpse into the square sanctuary within. A black altar stands on a raised dais along the south wall, covered in cobwebs and dust. Small torches are set into pillars throughout the room cast an eerie, flickering glow on the entire chamber.

A vile mass of writhing worms in undulating humanoid form stands atop the altar. Surrounding him on the temple floor are undead minions, who watch his every move, swaying back and forth and chanting in a tongue at times guttural and at others sibilant. The robed figure of slithering worms jerks his head up at an unsettling angle as he senses your approach. “Welcome, Pathfinders. I’m glad you managed to find me, although truth be told, you’re rather late. Still, at least you’ll be able to witness my greatest triumph. I’d take the time to explain things to you, but well, I’d rather just kill you and get this over with.” With those words, The figure motions and his minions attack.

The undead minions are typical wights. I expect all of you to be seasoned enough adventurers to recognize and know these creatures.

"WHat IS that ugly thing?" Hikaru asks as he enlarges (swift action, giving himself dr 2/- and 20% immunity to crits.)He steps forward into the room and to the side to allow others to enter as well, arming himself as he moves, mentally setting his blade to do lethal damage... He uses his cloak to cast shield on himself and stands ready to parry and riposte if necessary.

know religion: 1d20 + 13 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 13 + (3) = 22 I think we can guess a few things, but I will ask for special defenses anyway.

Vex moves to distance himself from the group, blending with the shadows as he moves.

Stealth: 1d20 + 31 ⇒ (16) + 31 = 47

"Mother of Souls! That vile thing is a worm-that-walks!" He quickly whispers to the others what little he knows about a worm-that-walks via message and tells them where he will be moving.

Hikaru: What is your new AC with the large size and shield figured in?

Hikaru steps into the room, growing as he activates his sword and prepares for battle.

The "Ugly Thing" on the alter chuckles mirthlessly at Hikaru's rude greeting. "I am what you shall be.. Do you not even recognize me, brothers? I am what will happen to each of you! Our Society sends us out, but cares nothing for us.. only for the profits we return with!"

Vex, considers the beast for a moment, recognizing the danger they have stumbled across. He fades from sight, moving into the room.

You all also have +10 movement speed via Triple Time: +10' increase to movement

Quick question. Are the yellow polka-dots on the map difficult terrain or just for show on the map?

Here we go... Jaysin lines up one of the lead wights (red) and lets loose a volley of arrows!

Bow: 1d20 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 13 + 2 = 33 for Manyshot: 2d8 + 30 ⇒ (8, 7) + 30 = 45

Confirm #3?: 1d20 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 13 + 2 = 33 for Arrow: 2d8 + 30 ⇒ (2, 3) + 30 = 35

new ac is 26... original ac is in parens

Wizzy: Thank you for that reminder!!
Caduceus: I forgot to mention that.. the question came up in the low tier table as well. Best as I can tell this map was reused from something else. The description of the room makes no mention of that, so I am going to ignore it as regular terrain.
Thanks, Hikaru

Jaysin steps forward and begins to send a hissing flight of second death down the length of the temple. The first two arrows sprout in the middle of the red cloaked wight, dropping it to the ground instantly. Shifting his target slightly to the side, he takes the orange clad wight to a fresh death as a second arrow sprouts from its eye socket and destroys the skull.

Two of their number down, the remaining wights spread out and move forward through the hall, arms stretching for the disguised pathfinders as they shamble forward to bar your passage!

Dr. Vitruvian pulls out a small vial of lambent, nearly-vaporous blue liquid, and quaffs it (heroism).

The paladin steps forward, bearing his shield of Iomedae. "Time for your souls to find rest!" Tapping into the strength of his faith, the holy emanation bursting from the half-elf is akin to a beacon. is by far stronger than what the team felt when they met with the Pharismans.

Oracle selective channel (DC 18): 5d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 2, 6, 2) = 18
Finally, calling on the power of his sacred ring, Caduceus immediately sends forth a second burst of positive energy.
Oracle selective channel (DC 18): 5d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 5, 1, 3) = 19

Wizzy starts a song, weaving the words of a spell into the music as he goes. The companions feel their hearts lighten, their arms strengthen, and their feet fly!

Meanwhile, Dr. Viturvian seeks more of an advantage and quickly drinks a smooth blue potion.

Tired of hiding behind disguises and deceit, the holy warrior of Iomedae steps forward, baring the device on his shield. With a quick prayer and a shouted challenge, he sends a burst of positive energy to flood over the undead before him. Not satisfied, he activates a ring and floods the room with light and power once more!

The waves of energy overpower the wights.. they don't stand a chance against the flood of holy power washing over them!
Unfortunately, the holy power of Iomedae washes harmlessly over the Worm That Walks!
Despite the story, the WTW is not classified as Undead

"Your gods will not help you here, holy man. Have a taste of fire!!" the worm calls out to Caduceus, stretching out an arm dripping with worms to point at him. Suddenly, two rays of fire arc out at Caduceus, striking him square on the chest and leaving smoldering holes in his tunic.

Nice ring, Caduceus! My negative-channeling Cleric might have to look into one of those....

Dr. Vitruvian blinks at the sudden mass-destruction of the wights, then zips forward and lobs a small explosive at the vile conglomerate.

Bomb, flag, courage, haste, heroism: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (15) + 18 = 33
fire damage: 3d4 + 12 ⇒ (2, 2, 4) + 12 = 20

Hikaru moves forward, using the enhanced speed from Wizzy, and slashes at the WTW from 10' away.

Dr. Vitruvian dashes forward, tossing a small cask at the creature in the robes. It explodes right on top of the creature, not giving the WTW a chance to evade. With a curse and a cry, it straightens just in time for Hikaru to lumber forward slashing with his scimitar. The worms scream chokes off into a laugh though, as the metal passes right through his composite form.
"My former brothers would bring fire and sword as well. We shall see how those fare against me!!"

Vex dashes in on the vile creature before them, sure that his weapons will be nothing more than a hopeful distraction, and defensively thrusts his blade in and out with magically enhanced speed. As soon as he attacks he breaks from his blending with the shadows.

With a strangely detached tone, Vex says, "The abomination you have become is not fit for this world. Allow us to deliver you to oblivion."

AC till my next round is 33 (24T/21FF)(+1 more vs evil) and reflex save is 18

Wizzy moves up a bit and drops a sound burst on top of the WTW careful to avoid Vex and Hikaru. He continues his performance as a free action.

From the looks of it I can go north with the spell center and miss the two pathfinders, hitting the worm.

SR if Needed: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
Sonic Dam: 1d8 ⇒ 5 Plus a DC 17 Fort or be stunned for 1 round.

You realize a direct hit from a Bomb doesn't allow a Reflex save, right? That's just for special effects and the splash damage.

The paladin moves up to join the fray.

Longsword: 1d20 + 10 + 2 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 10 + 2 + 3 + 1 = 341d8 + 2 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 3 + 2 = 8

Jaysin continues firing arrows, this time at the red enemy. Don't get in my way! Otherwise don't blame me if you die!

Bow: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (12) + 19 = 31 for Arrows: 2d8 + 34 ⇒ (2, 2) + 34 = 38
Bow: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (2) + 19 = 21 for Arrow: 1d8 + 17 ⇒ (2) + 17 = 19
Bow: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (16) + 19 = 35 for Arrow: 1d8 + 17 ⇒ (7) + 17 = 24
Bow: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18 for Arrow: 1d8 + 17 ⇒ (5) + 17 = 22

I took no account for any cover in those rolls.

Sorry for the delay, I was having to clarify some rules and make sure I was interpreting things correctly. As it was.. I wasn't. However, I need something from yall please. There are a great many things that this thing is immune to or resistant to. Please note what is what when you post a long string of numbers so that I can remove what isn't effective.

Dr. V. Good catch, thanks! Just a few crossed wires there..

It takes a few moments for the effects to be seen, but it seems that Hikaru's strike did manage to smash a few of the worms.

Vex jumps out of the shadows, striking hard and deep.. but even his dagger is only able to kill a few more of the worms.

Wizzy casts a quick spell, causing a deafening clap of thunder to fill the temple. The worm drops his quarterstaff and covers his ears as the sound washes over him.
Fort: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

Caduceus steps forward and slashes with his sword, but the sword passes harmlessly through the worms.

Jaysin floods the air with his arrows, but only two make it around Hikaru to strike at the creature.
What are your damage modifiers in addition to the +7 on your sheet?

The wounds on the creature seem to heal themselves as the team looks on in horror. However, the creature is still reeling from the clap of thunder.

Two things before I take my turn....

@Cadeuceus: Could you please take a 5-foot step downward or right?

@DM: Would my Bombs still work against it if I used one of these?

Hikaru strikes again, beady black eyes burning with desire to see this abomination struck down.

Since it seemed to work before Wizzy will try another Sound Burst(DC 17 Fort)..

Sonic Dam: 1d8 ⇒ 4 plus stun if fail..

He continues his song as a free action..

The paladin invokes his goddess in his effort to lay this soul to rest.
"My Lady, infuse my blade with your Holiness so I may redeem this once goodly man!"

Smite Evil. AC now 29, attacks bypass DR

Longsword: 1d20 + 10 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 10 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 6 = 231d8 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 2 + 3 + 2 + 4 = 19
Longsword {Haste}: 1d20 + 10 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 10 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 6 = 251d8 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 3 + 2 + 4 = 16

After the attacks, Caduceus make a 5' adjustment to the right (east).

Dr. V: You have seen that your bombs work well.. and would have no reason to believe that this admixture would change that.

When rolling damage, please let me know what the numbers are for.
Ex: dice=dmg 1d8+5+1+1+2/dice
Base, PBS, Haste, Flagbearer

Wizzy creates another cacophony of noise, trying to recreate his earlier performance! Unfortunately, it does not do as well this time around.

Dr. Vitruvian takes out and opens a small jar of red, nut-like capsules, which begin smoking languidly upon exposure to air, and prepares them for use with his explosives supply.

That's me using my targeted bomb admixture.

Hikaru is up again before it gets another action? are you sure? if so: here's his actions

Hikaru sidesteps to offer Caduceus a single step into flank if he wants to tank it, and if this thing even can be flanked.

to hit: 1d20 + 14 + 3 + 2 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (14) + 14 + 3 + 2 + 1 - 1 = 33

dmg if hits: 1d8 + 6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 3 + 2 = 12

to confirm crit: 1d20 + 14 + 3 + 2 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 14 + 3 + 2 + 1 - 1 = 28
if that confirms, no extra damage, using the gloves of marking instead so everyone adds +2 to hit and damage against the WTW for one minute

omg... 3 1's for damage??? sigh

damage bonuses: +1 weapon, +1 swashbuckler weapon training +4 dex (dervish dance)=+6, +3 inspire +2 flagbearer, somehow I got an extra 6 points in there earlier... not sure how I did that... may have added somethings twice? anyway - these bonuses should be correct.

Sorry K'Kei, but the WtW is immune to crits.

Vex steps over, even knowing that a flank will offer no benefit.

Perhaps I can at least be considered another target in order to divide it's attention.

He strikes out with two rapid thrusts of his dagger hoping that whatever little damage he can manage helps bring the abomination down.

dagger: 1d20 + 15 - 2 + 2 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 15 - 2 + 2 + 3 + 1 = 38
dagger: 1d20 + 15 - 2 + 2 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 15 - 2 + 2 + 3 + 1 = 21
magic piercing damage: 1d3 + 11 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 11 + 2 + 3 = 19
magic piercing damage: 1d3 + 11 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 11 + 2 + 3 = 18

PLEASE SEE DISCUSSION THREAD

Thank you for your quick responses!! Just waiting on Jaysin to clear up last turn and to take this turn.

Hikaru strikes out at the robed figure, with mixed successes. His three swings all hit the foe, but none of them appear to do any damage to the masses of worms that make up the creatures body.

Caduceus declares the holy might of his goddess, stepping forward and smiting the holy crap out of the worm thing!!! Infernal shrieks fill the chamber as his holy vengeance falls.

Meanwhile, Dr. V pulls out a vial and mixes them with his bombs.

Vex steps in on the other side of the creature, and his dagger flashes out twice. It's not able to do much damage, but he does see a few more worms fall from beneath the black robes.

It does, it does. I got the Haste bonus, but I forgot about the smite deflection bonus. Thank you!

Damn.. that smite certainly turned the tide in this fight! You took away his chance at arcane fighting by one shotting the wights, and then destroyed him with Smite!

With one last cry invoking holy Iomedae's power, Caduceus drives his sword through the mass of worms as it attempts to engulf him. With his first strike, the coalesced worms give a shiver. With the second strike, the entire mass recoils. Then, with one last mighty swing, the sword passes completely through the creature, blasting the worms in a gory and wet comets tail through the air. The entire being seems to almost explode, losing all cohesion and dropping to the floor in an almost liquid form. As the companions stand staring, the worms begin to spread out, disappearing between chunks of the flagstone or squirming off in all directions.

Suddenly, a deep rumbling courses through the chamber. The tremors grow both more violent and more rapid until suddenly the earth beneath the altar bulges up and explodes in a shower of dust and mud that pushes all of the pathfinders back and into each other. Stone and dust fly in all directions as two nightmarish creatures made of putrid flesh and noxious fluids rises up from a large hole. Vaguely wormlike, these huge creatures mouths are made of rows of teeth and retracting mandibles.

This time, Dr. Vitruvian is ready. Barely missing a beat, he tosses another bomb, adulterated with one of the red capsules. The resulting explosion is much smaller, but also much brighter.

Dr. V tosses one of his special bombs at the red tinged creature. The resulting explosion is far brighter than normal, but doesn't spread either. It rears its ugly many toothed maw towards the ceiling in what may be a silent scream.. before crashing down on Caduceus. The many rows of teeth rend the faithful mans armor, as thick coils of flesh begin to encircle him.

Dr. V tosses a well placed bomb at the tail of the worm battling with Caduceus, which allows the nimble warrior to escape the beasts clutches.

Hikaru can't seem to recall any lore about these monstrous worms...

He takes a step forward and slashes at blue, his scimitar flashing as he dances about while attacking.

Wait...WTF is a PALADIN doing stooping to a saving throw (let alone spending a DM reroll) against DISEASE??? Only Vex needs to save against paralysis.

Fort Save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22 Phew!

Know Religion: 1d20 + 13 + 1d6 ⇒ (11) + 13 + (3) = 27 special defenses?

Vex shoulders the blow from the creature with a roll. "Ghoul worms!" he cries out.

He thrust his dagger twice in rapid succession into the blue worm before him, trying to help Hikaru bring it down.

Ach.. I looked at his sheet and couldn't see anything noted about diseases but forgot to double check the PRD. Good catch. Caduceus: keep your reroll.. unless there is something retracting your immunity, you can't catch diseases.[ooc]

Although he can't seem to recall anything about these creatures, Hikaru steps in and begins attacking the worm in front of him. His first swing misses, but the next two connect hard!

[ooc]Vex: Channel resistance, undead traits.
Vex recognizes the creature, yelling out a warning of the creatures defenses. Then he flows inward, his little dagger laying long stripes of worm flesh bare and bleeding. The worm roars in anger an pain!

Sorry folks, Holiday weekend had me slammed.. I should have posted to DMPC I apologize.

Wizzy will use his loremaster ability to identify the two worms. Take 20 on Know Religion for a 38. Any other pertanent defensive or offensive abilities will be fine.

Wizzy will continue his inspiration and cast a Glitterdust on the two worms, hoping to blind them.. DC 17 Will

Wizzy casts a hand out, tossing a handful of glittering golden dust at the worms.
Red: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
Blue: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

The worms easily shake off his spell!

Enraged by the explosion, the red tinged worm slides forward and lashes out at Dr. V! Multitudes of long teeth sink through tender elven skin and begin to saw through armor.
Bite: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 21
Dmg: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (6, 2) + 7 = 15

Grab: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (16) + 22 = 38
Please make DC 18 fort save vs disease please.
Not sure what the star next to your AC is. Haste gives you a +1, but I'm not sure what all else you may have going. Pending any other modifiers, the worm just barely got you.

1d2 ⇒ 1
The other worm continues to attack Vex, this time with a bite! The teeth sink into the sneaky man, ripping and tearing!
Bite: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29
Dmg: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (6, 1) + 7 = 14

Grab: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (2) + 22 = 24
Please make DC 18 fort vs disease

Seeing Vex wrapped up by the monstrosity, the paladin tries to finish off the blue tinged worm.

Longsword BLUE: 1d20 + 10 + 2 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 10 + 2 + 3 + 1 = 361d8 + 2 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 2 + 3 = 10

Per discussion thread, shifting target to RED

Caduceus steps into his swing, delivering a massive hit to the worm before him. He resets his grip and hacks again, dealing another blow to the worm!
