Petrok Kaznikh |
Petrok will drink the potion and levitate above it next round (taking the attack at the end of the swarms movement/round)*edit*PS I have Petrok taking 21hp worth dmg so far is that correct GM?(after your last attack of 13hp)
Charna the Morbid |
Charna's gloves coated with arcane inscriptions burst forth with fire once again, cooking the ants.
burning hands+intense focus: 2d4 + 1 ⇒ (3, 4) + 1 = 8
Reflex DC 15 again.
GM Chyro |
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
The swarm's troops get fried for another 7 dmg.
Burn baby, burn damn you!
Sorry i forgot your name in init before now.
We're here =>
Nectanebo
========================
Ant swarm, round 3
Faeran & Petrok
Kitoro
Nectanebo
------------
Swarm (-17)
------------
Charna
Nectanebo the Vulture |
Nectanebo prepares to heal Charna should she need it.
readied action in the event Charna gets hurt, Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17
wand of cure light wounds on Charna: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
EDIT:
Forgot my heroism on that last roll, but it wouldn't matter.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
"Whoops!"
GM Chyro |
Did you move? Moving on greased tiles, even 5ft, requires an acro check.
Spent charge, nope. If it didn't activate, you don't expend charges.
Ant swarm, round 3
Faeran & Petrok
Kitoro
Nectanebo
------------
Swarm (-17)
------------
Charna
GM Chyro |
Reflex Nectanebo vs falling, heroism: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
The Vulture remains standing, outstandingly so.
Faeran |
"Can you make the dino back off please so I can hit the swarm easier?"
Faeran readies to throw the alchemist fire if and when the dino moves.
GM Chyro |
A handle animal check DC 15 could get it to follow the -Come here- command, in Steinfaust's absence.
If not proficient in it, you can attempt it with a CHA check.
Kitoro |
Now THAT's something Kit can do.
Kit calls the dino and continues her performance, incorporating a little dino food in the routine as the ants try hauling a biscuit past a dinosaur looking thumb just to get gobbled up.
Handle animal: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
A little aid will do it.
Petrok Kaznikh |
Petrok concentrates and levitates above the swarming mass of ants to avoid their bites and stings. Hw then pulls out his wand of cure lite wounds while hovering above the squirming mass.
GM Chyro |
As Petrok seeks higher ground, leaving the swarm deals 1d6 ⇒ 5 hp dmg to it, as part of them are taking, -and taken-, off.
The ants clinging to Petrok deal 3d6 ⇒ (2, 2, 5) = 9 damage.
Full round DC 17 reflex to shake them off.
Meanwhile, Faeran stands ready, about to throw a curveball with a flask in hand, if the dino pet would just move aside.
Kitoro gives it a try, and the dino looks oddly at the piece of food presented.
Nectanebo
----------------
Swarm (-22)
----------------
Charna
Faeran, go ahead with an attack roll, in case Nectanebo would make sure the dino approaches Kitoro.
Nectanebo the Vulture |
Nectanebo makes a shooing motion at the bereaved dinosaur.
aid Kitoro's Handle Animal: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
GM Chyro |
The shooing seems ineffective, and the dino-pet stays where it is.
--------
Swarm (-22) attacks the next target, the stegosaurus.
Swarming: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 3) = 6
Fort vs distraction: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
The stegosaurus lacked his saves in his spoiler, so i'm basing this on the animal companion page and his CON being 10.
Am i correct in his HP being 18? 3d10 without bonuses.
The dinosaur is upset by the countless aggressive insects biting it, making a frantic grunting, and has become nauseated.
----------------
Charna
Kitoro |
Saving Finale for the dinosaur! Please reroll that ST!
GM Chyro |
1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
Kitoro's words somehow sound harmonious to the stegosaur, enough to suppress it's rising nausea for the time being.
Charna
Kitoro |
Kitoro will be starting another perforamnce on her turn. If you want the +1/+1 you will need to delay. By the way, that bonus applies to alchemist fire too Faeran, so you should be rolling 1d6+1 when doing damage.
GM Chyro |
Without Steinfaust, the stegosaur will react like an average animal.
In effect, he'll try to get away from the swarm in a random direction after Charna's turn.
Faeran |
Faeran throws the alchemist fire then...
rta to hit: 1d20 + 4 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 4 - 4 + 1 = 18
dmg if hits: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Nectanebo the Vulture |
Don't forget the 'catching fire' rules that go with alchemist's fire, too, just a reminder....
Charna the Morbid |
This swarm is brutal! Last try.
Charna uses the last of the gloves' fire, hoping to finish off the horrid little critters once and for all! Then she withdraws an acid flask from her belt, just in case they need a little more hot sauce.
burning hands+intense focus: 2d4 + 1 ⇒ (3, 4) + 1 = 8
DC 15 Reflex. At least the d4's are being friendly! :D
I can't 5' step in here because of the grease right?
GM Chyro |
That's right.
Reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
The swarm takes a whopping 14 dmg.
The dino moves away into the room, 1d6 ⇒ 4 dmg to the swarm.
The swarm deals 3d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 2) = 13 dmg to the stegosaur afterwards.
Which is just enough to take down the stegosaur.
(swarm at -40, this is a big development)
As it does, Faeran throws a flask, but it misses.
I'm assuming the nearest square, as that avoided Petrok.
Ends up on #: 1d8 ⇒ 8, it hits the wall near him, dealing 2 splash dmg to the swarm, and 1 to himself.
====================
Ant swarm, round 4
Faeran & Petrok
Kitoro
Nectanebo
------------
Swarm (-42)
------------
Charna
Petrok, as per discussion, i'm fine with 2 1/2 parts, if you can link me to where it mentions this as possible. As i can't recall seeing it before.
Faeran |
an 18 misses it's touch attack? geez!
Faeran throws an acid flask, a last ditch effort, then steps back further from the swarm.
rta to hit: 1d20 + 4 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 4 - 4 + 1 = 20 took the =4 penalty for Petrok being in melee with it, but not sure if can technically be 'in melee', seeing as it can't be harmed with weapons... anyway - if not applicable, that's a 24, not a 20
dmg if hits: 1d6 ⇒ 3
GM Chyro |
From experience, you'd know that by now. :)
4 dmg to the swarm, but it is still there.
Petrok Kaznikh |
Petrok drops his falchion to the floor and heals himself with the wand while levitating reflex: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 He then begins to try and dust off the ants. I'll look for a link but I really wouldn't see a problem with this unless I tried a standard action next round..doesn't matter as you said ants will still dmg. me but if they reduce me to 0 or bellow it's a big deal cause I will still be conscious from Orc ferocity and the 1/2 round I spend now plus the 1/2 round I spend then = full round..which could save my life..(if I make the reflex)
Petrok now has 9hp
GM Chyro |
Alright, let's go with double 1/2, and a move action on your next turn.
Ant swarm, round 4
Faeran throws a vial of acid, and this time hits, melting much of the remaining ants.
Petrok heals himself for 2 HP, and then tries swiping off ants.
Clinging ants: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 1) = 6
Kitoro
Nectanebo
------------
Swarm (-46)
------------
Charna
Kitoro |
Kitoro starts her performance and pulls out the wand of CMW.
What is the DC to pass through the room to the other side at full move? I doubt if she will try it but I'd like to know.
GM Chyro |
Undetermined. This is based on Grease, which only says being able to cross it at half speed with an acro check.
I reckon grease is a difficult terrain, and difficult terrain impairs the 1/2 movement speed.
Nectanebo the Vulture |
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18
readied action in the event Charna gets hurt, Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (17) + 16 = 33
wand of cure light wounds on Charna: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
GM Chyro |
Wands of healing are drawn throughout the ranks, preparing for the injuries of the ants.
-----------------
Swarm (-46) heads 1d2 ⇒ 2 west towards Kitoro.
3d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 3) = 8
Fort vs distraction: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
She gets hundreds of bites, but manages to suppress nausea.
------------------
Charna
Charna the Morbid |
acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
Charna slips a bit on the grease but manages to keep her footing. She fumes at her inability to follow after the bugs.
GM Chyro |
While the slimy floor prevents Charna from moving, the ants clinging to the stegosaur deal 6d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 4, 3, 4, 2) = 18 dmg, killing it.
=================
Ant swarm, round 5
Faeran & Petrok (reflex DC 17 pending)
Kitoro
Nectanebo (can post ahead)
-----------
Swarm (-46)
-----------
Charna
Petrok Kaznikh |
I'm going to wait to see if Faeran can burn these things off me(he is b4 me in initiative because of a previous held action) ..just aim for my square Faeran it should splash the stupid things.. and burn them off me
Petrok Kaznikh |
Nevermind just looked at the map Faeran is too far away.. Petrok tries to shake off the ants reflex shake off ants: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14 Petrok screams in pain Kitoro help! Kitoro do you have any saving finales left? If so and you spend it on me, my alternate save is below the spoiler.*edit* forgot heroism again but it doesn't matter missed by 3 not 2
(another *edit* sorry :( after Petrok is done shaking ants (whether successful or not).. he uses a move action to drop to the ground)
Petrok Kaznikh |
GM I just realized it would do me no good to drop to the ground if the ants are still on me. Therefore if the ants remain I stay aloft to continue and try to dust them off thx
Kitoro |
Yes, she drops her performance for another saving finale, unless you forgot to add the +2 from heroism and actually made your save? Stay away from the ants and you should be OK without any healing.
Faeran |
Faeran throws the acid flask at a square that doesn't include Kitoro
to hit: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
dmg if hits: 1d6 ⇒ 2
Then runs over to Petrok to heal him.
Faeran |
oh... reflex for grease if nec: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17
Kitoro |
Kit starts a performance and moves north. The bigger finger puppet ants start squashing the smaller ants in the swarm and do a little superiority dance as she starts another performance. Just enough to move out of the swarm, but close enough to remain the target of choice and give the others a good angle to shoot from. Hopefully Faeran's acid takes them out before that becomes necessary.
GM Chyro |
Faeran, every square included Kitoro. :P
Lands on: 1d8 ⇒ 6
Faeran's flask hits a wall, splashing the swarm and Kitoro for 1.
Kitoro moves out of the swarm, and it deals 1d6 ⇒ 1 dmg to them.
Oh gods, the humanity of it.
At the end of her turn, it deals 3d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 3) = 12 dmg to her, as the ants keep clinging onto her.
Nectanebo
----------------
Swarm (-48)
----------------
Charna
Nectanebo the Vulture |
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10
readied action to heal anyone in need who comes adjacent, Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (2) + 14 = 16
GM Chyro |
Petrok had gotten rid of his own pest problem, but the swarm now goes for Kitoro again.
Swarming: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 4) = 11
The strain is enough to make the bard faint.
Stabilize roll please. You are at -1.
--------------
Charna
Kitoro |
Stabilize: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14
Charna the Morbid |
Charna tries again to follow the swarm and hopefully finish it off.
acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
This time, she keeps her footing well enough to get back around the corner. She tosses the acid flask at the ants, praying to Pharasma that this will finally be enough to destroy them!
Aiming for the far corner where it won't splash on Kitoro.
ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
acid damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1
Ugh. Seriously?
GM Chyro |
I read about diagonal movement and hard corners a while back.
Searching to be sure, results mention it is not possible.
Similar is the thing with 5ft step and hard corners such as walls.
Based on this, i'd have to say you're tossing acid grenade next turn, and are standing behind Faeran.
Ant swarm, round 6
Faeran & Petrok
Kitoro
Nectanebo (can post ahead)
-----------
Swarm (-48)
-----------
Charna
Petrok Kaznikh |
Petrok still levitating and finally free of the clinging and swarming ants, cast cure moderate wounds on himself cure mod.: 2d8 + 4 ⇒ (2, 8) + 4 = 14 then concentrates with his mind to lower himself to the floor. Petrok looks toward the remains of Steinfaust, now not much more than a skeleton and a torn backpack. Has anyone checked Steinfaust gear for alchemist fire?! Petrok shouts in desperation.
Petrok is now back to 17hp and is standing on the floor next to Steinfaust remains
Faeran |
Faeran is about to heal Petrok, when he heals himself.... instead Faeran searches Steinfast's body for any area effect devices like alchemist fire or acid flasks.
GM Chyro |
Faeran hears the sound of vials chingling against eachtother inside Steinfaust's backpack.
Which are acid flasks.
Petrok heals his wounds, -Ah, that's the stuff-
Kitoro
--------------
Ant swarm (-48)
--------------
Charna
Edit: I had forgotten Kitoro's roll.
Fort KItoro vs nauseated: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
She's nauseated.
Kitoro |
Kit ends her performance for a new ST roll.
Fort ST reroll: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
She then casts CMW on herself from the wand and hightails it out of there.
CMW: 2d8 + 2 ⇒ (1, 7) + 2 = 10
GM Chyro |
>> The team will be happy to know that the swarm is no more!
>> Unfortunately for Kitoro, what remained of it is clinging onto her. :P
Kitoro was about to hurl up her latest meal, but she finds strength in her own verse and puppet play, and suppresses the urge to do so.
After healing herself, she moves away, taking the remainder of the ants along for the ride.
At the end of her turn, they bite her for 3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 3) = 11
Charna
Time to put this nightmare to an end, yes?
