GM Bold Strider's PFS 00-23 Tide of Morning (1-5) (Inactive)

Game Master rpblue

Anyone trying to put out flames needs to make a Reflex save.

Orik and Shamak slap the flames with their cloak and blanket, putting out the flames that were engulfing the bed as Ishingka runs from the room, coughing up her lungs.

Reflex : 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

"Do you just fan the flames like this? ."

btw whiskers is outside while Wembly tries to 'help' .

Rhull continues to beat at the flames with his cloak.
ref: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

This mission is definitely not starting well at all.

Ref Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Wembly hops off of Whiskers and fans the flames with his cloak, causing them to grow ever larger while Rhuul and Rowanna beat down the newly enlarged flames in front of Wembly.

1d6 ⇒ 2

The spread of the flames is less and less as the Pathfinders continue to beat it back, however the searing heat and the choking smoke permeate the room.

Rowanna continues to try to put out the fire despite the environmental hazards.

Reflex Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Rhuul beats down the flames, looking for an opportunity to throw anything from the hut that might suddenly contribute to them going up again (stacks of paper etc).

reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

On the bigger map, is that a river at the bottom of the hill? Can someone outside fetch water?

The water is a different location.

Ishingka looks around frantically for dirt or sand to throw on the flames.

Shamak continues to try to extinguish the flames, but he's not so deft this time.

Ref save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

Wembly watches the others and tries a different technique
Reflex: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17

"oh, now I get it... . "

Orik restrains himself from back-handing the "helpful" gnome, but then relaxes as Wembly seems to get the hang of it. Growling, he attacks more of the flames with his favorite wee blanky, but it seems to no avail this time.

Reflex: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

There is plenty of freshly "tilled" dirt available for Ishingka from the uprooting of the Entangle spell cast earlier.

Wembly, Shamak and Rhuul are able to put out three more flames, but the flames continue to spread elsewhere in the small hut.

1d6 ⇒ 3

The group chokes and gasps as the flames continue to steal the air that they wish to breathe and sear their flesh.

Status:
Rowanna @ 21/26 HP; Wembly @ 19/27 HP; Whiskers @ 22/22 HP; Rhuul @ 17/31 HP; Ishingka @ 7/13 HP; Shamak @ 21/26 HP; Orik @ 32/40 HP;

How close are we to putting the fire out? Are we making any progress at all?

Reflex Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23

Coughing loudly, the witch continues her attempts at smothering the flames with a blanket, a look of disdain and frustration frozen on her face.

"I'm not going back in there, but..." Ishingka hefts as much dirt onto her cloak as she can, "Take this and throw it at the flames. We work from front to back to minimize death," she says to Rowanna. "Or pass it to that crazy dwarf from the Forges. Why our ancestors loved heat so much I'll never know."

Rhuul continues to try and remove combustible material from the hut, stomping on flames where he spies them.

"I'm not sure we are making much headway. Anyone see the gnome?"

perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Crazy dice. At least skill checks don't auto fail on a one

You see that the flames are expanding slowly (two extra flames per round), so you should be able to overcome it if you don't fumble around for much longer.

Coughing and itching from the burns, Shamak does his best to put out the fire with his cloak.

Ref save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Wembly stops at Rhuul's question, puzzled.

"Hey...cough...cough. Rhuul...I am right...cough...here!"

2d20 ⇒ (8, 6) = 14

Wembly and Orik flail at the flames uselessly as Rowanna, Rhuul and Shamak put out more flames, however there efforts are nearly invalidated by the flames' expansion behind them.

Fire Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Rowanna @ 16/26 HP; Wembly @ 14/27 HP; Whiskers @ 22/22 HP; Rhuul @ 12/31 HP; Ishingka @ 7/13 HP; Shamak @ 16/26 HP; Orik @ 27/40 HP;

Wembly will exit out of the burning building before he takes further damage from the heat.

Wembly was considering summoning a small water elemental, but I thought there was a restriction that it must be summoned into a body of water. I cannot find that text. Anyone recall where that may be?

I have never heard of that. Feel free to summon it.

Wembly will stagger out of the building and dismiss Whiskers.

"So long for now, friend."

He will summon the small water elemental on his next chance (std action).

Shamak stubbornly continues with his cloak.

Ref save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17

Despite the blistering heat and choking smoke, Orik keeps trying to beat out the flames. His vision clouded, the dwarf has a difficult time putting out much fire.

Reflex DC 15: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

Once Wembly summons the small water elemental, he will send it into the blaze. He has no way to communicate to it other than pointing and miming, hopeful it will try to "attack" the fire.

not sure if there is a diplomacy or other type or roll for trying to get the elemental to drench the fire.

Drench (Ex) The elemental's touch puts out non-magical flames of Large size or smaller. The creature can dispel magical fire it touches as dispel magic (caster level equals elemental's HD).

Before Rowanna potentially wastes a spell, would casting snowball at the base of some flames be able to put out some of the fire?

Wembly dismissed Whiskers from this plane of existence and summons a water elemental in his stead.

Rowanna conjures up a blast of ice and directs it at the large flames. Luckily, she blasts away two of the major fires in the room!

Rhuul: 1d20 ⇒ 12

Orik, Rhuul and Shamak work on the flames as Ishingka watches!

The smoke and fire continue to burn, injuring the people working on the flames.

Fire Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Rhuul runs from the house, coughing loudly.

Status:
Rowanna @ 13/26 HP; Wembly @ 11/27 HP; Rhuul @ 9/31 HP; Ishingka @ 7/13 HP; Shamak @ 13/26 HP; Orik @ 24/40 HP;

Whiskers @ 22/22 HP;

Deleted a post as I misread something.

Having used her only magical means of putting out the fire, Rowanna returns to trying to smother them with a blanket.

Ref save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

Wembly had exited the building to dimiss Whiskers and summon, but probably got burned directing the water elemental back to the fire.

He will try to stay out of the building and let the elemental do its drench thing (affecting a "large" fire).

The elemental has 13hp for what it is worth

If Ishingka cannot bring dirt to anyone, she will delay, fretting loudly under her breath. No other actions available!

The water elemental blasts one of the corners of the room with water, putting out any flames in the area. Three flames extinguished.

Rowanna is similarly successful, though on a smaller scale as she puts out a flame with her blanket.

Status:
Rowanna @ 13/26 HP; Rhuul @ 9/31 HP; Shamak @ 13/26 HP; Orik @ 24/40 HP;

Wembly @ 11/27 HP; Ishingka @ 7/13 HP;

Whiskers @ 22/22 HP;

Muttering in dwarven, the area around him starts to glow. Not with the fiery hotness of the hut but rather with a cool glow of celestial purity.

The glow moves on to Rowanna, Shamak and Ishingka.

Casts path of glory. Anyone ending their turn in the squares currently occupied by Rowanna, Shamak, Rhuul and Ishingka will heal one point of damage. Rhuul can add extra (adjacent) squares next turn as a free action

Ishingka frowns at Wembly. "That's a good trick with the elemental. What happened to your cat?" She feels the tingle of healing and frowns deeper. "Ah, perhaps I can go in there and get burned again."

Wembly looks at Ishingka as he responds...he taps the gem on his forehead.

"It is kinda complicated. I cannot fully understand it. Whiskers goes back to some other plane until I call him again. But while I am summoning elementals, it interferes with my bond with Whiskers. I cannot call him back until the elemental is gone. "

"Oh, that makes sense, then. He is a cat. They get jealous and disappear," she says with a grin. "Aroden's backside, I hope we don't spend this entire mission feeling inadequate."

Still working despite the heat and smoke, Orik slaps at the flames with his blanket.

"Ye'd quit yer yappin', an' get tae woork, this wee blaze'd bae oot a'ready. Nae, get tae it, yeah?"

DC 15 Reflex: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

"Thanks for that, Rhuul!"

Ref Save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

The fires begin to dwindle as Orik and Shamak keep the flames from expanding farther into the nearly ruined building.

Fire Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5
Non-lethal Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

The smoke is becoming thicker as the flames continue to burn and the Pathfinders begin to feel overwhelmed by the fire and smoke.

Status:
Rowanna-1 NL @ 7/26 HP; Rhuul-1 NL @ 3/31 HP; Shamak-1 NL @ 7/26 HP; Orik-1 NL @ 19/40 HP;

Wembly @ 11/27 HP; Ishingka @ 7/13 HP;

Whiskers @ 22/22 HP;

Wembly calls out...

"Save yourselves and clear out. Let the water creature handle it.. Or grab anything of value to our cause before it is consumed in the flames....oh my!"

The elemental will try to drench more of the Flames.

The gnome draws a wand and tries to cure Ishingka.
Clw wand UMD : 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20 vs dc 15?

Clw : 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

To the woman...with an worried smile.

"We may need you ready to drag some of them out... . "

DC 20, but you still made it.

wow just barely .

Even a hardy dwarf like Orik has limits, and as the smoke and searing heat combine against him, the dwarf tries once again to quench the flames.

Reflex DC 15: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

After this round, he will sneak outside for fresh air, and hopefully a dose of healing before heading back into continue to fight the blaze.

Rhuul concentrates and the glow moves to surround Orik and Wembly now as well as the square be moves into to assist.

Everyone heals one point of damage. That will also heal a non lethal point as well. Hurrah. This is the second round of the spell.

Rhuul enters to assist with fighting the flames.

reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

"This is absolutely pointless." The young witch spits out as she begins to choke on the smoke. Wasting no time, she exits the burning building while pulling out her wand of Infernal Healing and uses it on herself.

"Is there any particular reason we need to save this building?" She asks, looking shocked at herself for not asking that question earlier.

Rowanna should be sitting at 9 HP now with Rhuul's spell and the fast healing.

37 charges left on wand.

@Rowanna: Infernal Healing is a one round cast time, thus you wouldn't be healed until you spend the standard action this round, plus the standard action next round.

@Rhuul: You don't have LoS on Wembly, thus won't be able to extend it into his square.

Status:
Rowanna-1 NL @ 8/26 HP; Rhuul-1 NL @ 4/31 HP; Shamak-1 NL @ 8/26 HP; Orik-1 NL @ 19/40 HP;

Whiskers @ 22/22 HP;

"We need to find some clue...<cough> <splutter>"

Wheezes Rhuul. Almost overcome by the smoke he also exists the room again.

Did he take that damage this round? Rhuul was outside the hut for a round to cast the spell

Coughing loudly, Shamak tries to put out one more fire, then rushes outside.

Save ref: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

@Rhuul: I didn't have you as outside the room. Sure, why not. Wembly is healed one point, lol.

As Rhuul rushes in to fight the remaining flames, Shamak runs out. Between everyone the flames are put out, however Rhuul collapses from smoke inhalation inside the hut as the water and smoldering ashes have created a thick black smog in the room.

Smoke Inhalation: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 2) = 8

Status:
Rowanna @ 8/26 HP; Rhuul-8 NL @ -4/31 HP; Orik-8 NL @ 11/40 HP;

Wembly @ 11/27 HP; Ishingka @ 8/13 HP; Shamak @ 8/26 HP;

Whiskers @ 22/22 HP;

When the path of glory heals a point of damage it will also heal a non lethal. two rounds left to go.
