GM Burglar's #2-04 Shadows Fall on Absalom (Inactive)

Game Master mechaedd

I would never use the non-lethal variety, except in a situation like this when I know that we have to apprehend someone...if this is indeed our guy.

Cleaver, I think you can lethally attack Red from where you stand with your iterative if you want to. Or 5’ step to the east and do the same to Blue.

“Cleaver, good job on Dreng! I think the safety-catch is off on the others now.”

Wait, were you counting the -4 to hit for nonlethal? Not sure if the attacks on the sheet are entirely up to date; I could see a +4 gain to hit between one scenario at this level.

If not, that last wave of attacks missed and claw-dreng still stands, though the original critical was still a critical, including fatigue (standard AC is 20). Any reasonable retconning w/ keeping die rolls is open, but with they were this round...

GM Burglar, I’m confused … If everyone is back from Spring Break, is it worthwhile getting an update on our opponent’s status, where we are in the round and whose turn it is?

I think Ander is up.

Ander, still invisible, moves toward the prone clothes rack and chops at it with his blade.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 11 + 2 = 33
Damage, Arcane Strike: 1d10 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 + 2 = 14

Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 2 = 25
Crit Damage: 1d10 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 2 = 10

Still on vacay, and can't edit map.

That is correct, though I'm double-checking that the nonlethal to-hit penalty was getting applied since +16 looks like Varg's standard to-hit. The sheet also says he's still 3rd level, so I wanted to make sure before skewing things against you guys. Alternatively, if it is the case that Dreng is still up but Ander redirects his attack to Dreng (since he's proven hearty enough to likely survive even a Magus crit), we pretty much get to the same result without any real edits to reality. And with Dreng being the biggest threat in this fight (possibly the scenario), I'm likely going to go with that next content post unless Tektite objects by the time I wake up and post again.

Coincidentally enough, I have no dependants so Spring Break really isn't a thing for me anymore. "I take two vacation days off to get my car fixed" is a thing, though, so I should be around plenty for the next few days.

Backtracking via given information on sheets, it looks like his standard to-hit should be +16/+9 (combining the effects from the +1 Furious Axe negating the first Power Attack penalty as per Furious Focus), so it looks like the -4 wasn't in. Going with the Ander-based taketown, to keep continuity and some amount of momentum through this vacation-ous time and since there's a big enough strength disparity between Dreng and the constructs that kinda identifies him as the main threat.

• Ander moves up to the heavily-beaten Dreng and takes the last swing needed to bring him down! As it's his only wound, he is clearly still alive, but the pain has rendered him unconscious!
• The unintelligent constructs stand up (red provoking from Varg.) Red, barring another timely crit simply attempts to slam the nearest non-Dreng person; Varg!

  Slam: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 211d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

  Blue attempts to stand and move across the difficult grease... Acro: 1d20 ⇒ 8 ... though it fails and possibly slips! Ref: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21 It instinctively stops moving and doesn't fall down, though!

Initiative Order:
Luisila, Panfalcon, Varg, Lin, and Ander are up again!
Wireframes

Damage
Blue: 26
Red=0
Dreng= unconscious from nonlethal

Panfalcon fires out a small lance of acid at the blue wire frame of doom.

Elemental Ray vs Blue: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 211d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Miniupdate: The ray touches with no difficulty, though it remains functional at 26 + 8 = 34 damage.

I do not see your calculations coming out to standard +16/+9, I am +16/+11 when Raging, as far as I know. Varg is, and always has been, 7th level. Are you suggesting that it is -4 to hit when trying to inflict non-lethal damage? I was not aware if that rule. I always thought you could attack as normal, and if you wanted to, you could designate the damage as non-lethal.

Nonlethal Damage with a Weapon that Deals Lethal Damage: You can use a melee weapon that deals lethal damage to deal nonlethal damage instead, but you take a –4 penalty on your attack roll.

No worries on not knowing it; it's one of those random things I've picked up on only because I did it so often in the yesteryear of Taldor Faction Missions. Too many people that really don't want to come back to their Glorious Homeland of Gold (or leave wherever they are, really.) I only just remembered it when I posted, myself.

To correct my own comment, though, my "standard attack" for Varg includes Power Attack (because what fine warrior fails to attack powefully?) Furious Focus only removes the penalty on the first swing; not all of them, so iterative to-hit won't be "Primary - 5," which seems contrary to what's been rolled so far. Usually, the difference doesn't matter and I just keep rollin', but I figured I'd note it since it did cut close here. I believe it's the biggest offender of "Short Text Description is Inaccurate for Feats" problem some of the bigger books have. The "3rd level" thing was just a note on the CR3 listed in your sheet's block, that I found amusing.

Plus, I've had so much time today, what with my car in the shop for a 3-part fix that won't even be done until maybe tomorrow that I need to entertain my brain with something.

Gotcha, thanks GM Burglar. I did know about the Furious Focus - my bad on that one.

Round #3 bless 8/80 ; freedom of movement (Varg) ; ☤ Info: Ander 21/45

Luisila copycats, takes a 5’ step to the east and BoLs Varg.

"Kill the rest dead, Cleaver! Ander, please stay where I can reach you if I need to heal you."

Burglar, your car seems to have been in the shop a lot of late. That must really suck.

Yeah, it’s a little known fact that Varg and the Tarrasque are both CR3 ;)

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
Damage: 1d10 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 2 = 9

Ander chops at the prone wire frame.

Sorry for my delay.

Linnea sees Varg beat the fake Dreng mercifully to the ground. As she looks around, she sees that another living wire frame is up. She swings her whip around, trying to trip it back down.

Trip: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (3) + 15 = 18

Round 3, Rage, (AC: 23) 3/19, Power Att, Furious Focus, Blessed, BOL, Freedom of Movement

Varg swings his axe at the one with the red outline, and then with his next swing aided by the luck of Calistria, swings through to the other mannequin to his Southwest.

GA Att 1: 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 16 + 1 = 26
GA Dam 1: 1d12 + 7 + 5 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 5 + 6 = 22

GA Att 2: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 1 - 3 = 20
GA Att 2 (BOL): 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 1 - 3 = 21
GA Dam 2: 1d12 + 7 + 6 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 7 + 6 + 6 = 26

Yeah, the car is at around 94,000 miles, so stuff's just kinda degrading at this point.

• Luisila gives Varg luck!
• Panfalcon fires off another acidic ray, damaging the blue one!
• Varg swings his axe twice, each finding a little bit of hardness to the first frame (though he still does a sizable amount of damage!) He then hacks over the frame to his southwest in a single chop to his southwest, confirming it is not a threat! BoL is for all d20 rolls for 1 round, by the way, so the first attack would get a second roll (though only rolling a crit would really change anything).
• Lin takes the space the one-hit wireframe stood and trips Blue back onto the Grease, to give Ander a safer target!
• Ander slashes at the easier-to-hit wireframe, connecting easily! While he does chop a gouge into it, it doesn't seem to have gotten through its hardness!
• The mindless wireframes continue their song and dance; Red identifies Varg as "nearest target!" Blue stands, provoking from Ander! It will then attempt to slam him!

  Slam Red (vs Varg): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 251d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
  Slam Blue (vs Ander): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 231d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

  Red Confirm?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 151d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Initiative Order:
Luisila, Panfalcon, Varg, Lin, and Ander are all up again!

Round #4 bless 9/80 ; copycat 2/8 ; freedom of movement (Varg) ; ☤ Info: Ander 14/45, Varg -3 hp

“Varg, it’s only the red mannequin we have to eliminate now.”

“Lin and Ander, if you’ve got an adamantine weapon use that!”

Luisila takes a 5’ step to the north-west, lines up the red mannequin with adamantine arrows and pretends she’s Desmond.

Rapid Shot #1 +PBS + bless: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 11 - 2 + 2 = 12
adamantine damage + PBS: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 1 = 4

Rapid Shot #2 +PBS + bless: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 11 - 2 + 2 = 12
adamantine damage + PBS: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 1 = 7

Iterative Longbow +PBS + bless: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 6 + 2 = 23
adamantine damage + PBS: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 1 = 9

I think Desmond would consider swapping jobs with Maaarv if he was this bad a shot!

Two 1's! I rule!

Mini update!

• Blue appears to be quite melted and likely not going to be wearing clothes any time soon! More importantly, it is so fused together, it can no longer move! Down
• Luisila's Efficient Quiver malfunctions and she grabs about two too many arrows and scatters them around her immediate vicinity after trying to fire all four! The last arrow connects, though, and pieces through the hardness of the clothing with ease!

AoO: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31
Damage: 1d10 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 2 = 6

Confirm: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 23
Extra Damage: 1d10 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 2 = 7

Ander chops at the wire frame as it stands, then brings his backswings around for another strike.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12
Damage: 1d10 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 2 = 10

Correction, Lu - 3 damage with DR. Just in case...BOL on first 3rd rd att below.

GA Att 1(BOL): 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 16 + 1 = 33

Round 4, Rage, (AC: 23/DR: 3) 4/19, Power Att, Furious Focus, Blessed, Freedom of Movement

Varg concentrates both swings of his axe at the one with the red outline.

GA Att 1: 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 16 + 1 = 35
GA Dam 1: 1d12 + 7 + 5 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 5 + 6 = 26

GA Att 2: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (14) + 11 + 1 - 3 = 23
GA Dam 2: 1d12 + 7 + 5 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 7 + 5 + 6 = 25

Thanks, buddy! Correction has been made. Nice rolling there! :)

• Somewhere, one of the designated item crafters for the Grand Lodge factions members has a seizure and his magic items wane erroneously! Luisila's quiver gives her far too many arrows for her first few draws, possibly presuming she has Mythic Manyshot! Regular functionality returns by her third shot, though, and she connects with the creature! Adamantine seems to do the trick vs the hardness of the creature. At 21 damage, it still stands!
• Panfalcon finally finishes the wire rack he's been working on, melting it into more of a semi-solid metal lump! It ceases moving!
• Varg applies himself against the red-dressed mannequin and ceased it's activity!

That combat comes to a close, but strange, scenario-dictated things and whatnot...

Anders: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 21
Lin: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Lui: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (13) + 19 = 32
Pan: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Varg: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

During the final moments of mannequin activity (even with terrible conditions penalty to the DC), everyone but Panfalcon notice that men have begun moving out into the upper floor from behind curtains and doors!

Everybody but Panfalcon has a surprise action, beating the hooded guys in surprise before we actually get into regular initiative. You all can also tell that Red and Blue are the two that were guarding Dreng and brought to him the first time.

Inits (Round 0: Surprise Round):
Panfalcon (Not in surprise), Ander, Luisila, Linnea, Varg
Goons (Colour-coded for ease of identification.)

Linnea takes a moment to start cracking wise to inspire her allies, "Guess news of this place's midnight madness sale got out!"

Inspire Courage. +1 to attacks, damage and saves vs. fear.

Round 5, Rage, (AC: 23/DR: 3) 5/19, Power Att, Furious Focus, Blessed, Freedom of Movement, Courage Inspired

Varg moves forward and squeezes between the counters/benches?

between the counters/benches?

Howi picture that area to Varg's left; there's enough space for one creature normal, squeezing for two; pick either the north or the south square in each column for threatening purposes and overlap your picture with the actual wall to represent that. Counts as a Low Obstacle for cover modifiers. Could crouch (like a halfway-prone) for full cover if you really wanted, but you'd have to stand up as a move if you wanted to not take the "Take a knee" penalties.

“Forget Norgorber. Let Calistria light up your life!”

Luisila takes a 5’ step to the north-east and *casts*

to affect all the enemy except Mr Orange and Mr Pink.

(DC 16 Reflex) Evil creatures take damage: 5d4 ⇒ (1, 1, 4, 2, 2) = 10 whether the save is successful or not.

Save dazzled for: 1d4 ⇒ 2 rounds
Fail blind for: 1d4 ⇒ 2 rounds

"Ander, if you're going into melee, we need to do something about your wounds."

• Ander listens to his Cleric and waits to see if anything happens with the cloak-and-dagger folks!
• Luisila's spell works to its full effect for once, as each of the figures seems to be burned by the goodness of the spell!

  Ref in rainbow order: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 171d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 171d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 221d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

  They're all pretty quick to cover their eyes, though, as they avoid being blinded!

• Linnea begins to inspire confidence via humour!
• Varg moves up to funnel the bads!
• The menagerie of figures are universally armed with 4 daggers a pop (one nicer than the other three.) They carry nothing else obvious, like good hooded figures should.

  Red Acro: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21
  Orange Acro: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19

  Green Acro: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18
  Blue Acro: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17

  They all move up, and Blue leaps over the counter! As he knocks over a small sign describing how "true artists don't believe in tipping," it becomes obvious they are slightly faster than an average person! All but Pink draw their nicer dagger, while pink chucks one of his lesser daggers at Varg!

  Pink Dagger: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 101d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

  Though proves very ineffective at hitting anything but armor!

Panfalcon draws a tiny shovel from the cuff of his robes. He slowly begins to kneel while enchanting the ground around him. The shovel takes on a coat of acid as a few drops burn the ground below. Panfalcon drives the shovel into the floor and a line of acid fire forth toward two of the reservoir dogs. Once the line reaches their feet, the line burns a perimeter around them. Circling the square, the floor benieth the two agents gives out to a large pit of acid below!

So, red doesn't attack and yellow doesn't get Sneak Attack, correct?

Can I wait on my action to see whether any of the thugs make their saves vs. Anders' pit?

Yes and yes. Though wrong caster. I'll never force actions as a "Do unto other" principle.

D'oh! I didn't get the wrong caster, I just spelled Panfalcon incorrectly. ;-)

So, the map hasn't been updated, right? Just checking.

Correct. Just picked up car, reshuffling cars with mother. The bads have to move to the nearest non-pit squares, if that helps theorycraft.

Cool beans. No probs. Also, sucks about the carstuff. I recently just had to replace the radiator. I could've done it myself if I had the time - but ended up over-paying because it had to be done right away. Now, I need to figure out how to clear the check engine light - got the code, it's just a matter of working through the possible solutions.

Linnea brings her whip around and tries to disarm the yellow bandit.

Disarm, Inspire Courage: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (14) + 21 = 35

Since both disarm and trip take the place of a melee attack, can I treat them like melee attacks and get an iterative? I'm going to try it, but subtracting 5 from the roll as an iterative can. You can ignore it if it's not an action that's kosher.

Linnea then swings the whip wide and low, hoping to trip the disarmed thug.

Trip: 1d20 + 15 - 5 ⇒ (13) + 15 - 5 = 23

I'm gonna wait for the map update. I think Lin has taken 2hp damage from yellow. Is that bleed damage, GM Burglar?
