GM Cwethan's Test of TarKuata (Outpost) (Inactive)

Game Master Cwethan

Noooooo flanking buddy!

Will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Kelumur falls ill again at the sight of the monstrous being. But the half-orc perseveres in the fight and attempts to take advantage of Skivven's attack to trip the enemy.

Trip, Sickened: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 10 - 2 = 17
I'm under the impression Skivven isn't flanking due to stunned, but if he is, +4 to trip.

Rhiannon's first strike is true, and carves off another slice from the Thognorok, unfortunately Kelumur's attempts are less successful and Tasutek wards him off with broad sweeps of his axe, before rounding on the nearly defenseless ratfolk and smashing him from his feet!

Greataxe: 1d20 + 10 + 2 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 10 + 2 + 3 + 2 = 32
Slashing: 1d12 + 4 + 3 + 3 + 3d6 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 3 + 3 + (1, 4, 1) = 22
Greataxe: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 5 + 2 + 3 + 2 = 25
Slashing: 1d12 + 4 + 3 + 3 + 3d6 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 3 + 3 + (4, 4, 5) = 28

Bold may go!

Skivven Stunned!, -50, dying
Rhiannon - Divine Favor, Fly, Magic Circle against Evil, DC 16 Will save or sickened for 3 Rounds
Eirwen - Mirror Image (6)
Kelumur -20 DC 16 Will save or sickened for 4 Rounds
Kitani -1, Mage Armor, Sickened (5)
Tasutek -23 Blessed, Bull's Strength, Water Walk, Barely visible magical field, -5 speed, No Opportunity Attacks
Kali -6, Sickened (3), DC 17 Fort (Poison) or 1 Str Damage, DC 16 Fort or 1 Dex Damage, 1 Con Damage, -10 speed, and 8 Nonlethal

Fortitude save vs poison, sickened: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
Fortitude save vs...the horror...sickened: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

Kali's discipline is proving no match for the terrible monster of Chaos!

"*g-uuuckk...* Such...paaaaiiiiin...you h-h-honor me, Unclean One. Allow me to show you my GRATITUDE!"

ongoing Belier's Bite bleed damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1

My attacks count as magic, cold iron, and silver:
[dice=Punishing Kick, +1 Strike, flank, sickened, Kuthite Cruelty]1d20+12[/dice] Make a DC 18 Fortitude save or be knocked prone; if it fails, see below
damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
Ki Flurry, flank, sickened, Kuthite Cruelty: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
Critical threat, Martial Manuscript!: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (20) + 13 = 33
Bonus damage?: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11 + 12 = 23, and let me know if that confirms, in which case I regain 1 Ki AND heal up to 7 hit points (whether that nonlethal goes away with it, I'm not sure)!
Ki Flurry, flank, sickened, Kuthite Cruelty: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Ki Flurry, flank, sickened, Kuthite Cruelty: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Kali's strikes are precise and well-aimed, but sadly, the Thognorok's body is amorphous enough, that there are no true weak points to strike. Immune to crits
Fort: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 9 + 2 = 22

Nevertheless, Kali's fierce strikes take their toll and the Qlippoth collapses into somehow more-formless goop!

If Skivven's going to squeak this out, someone should heal him promptly!
Bold may go!

Eirwen moves closer to the fray, seeing the ratfolk ally down and requiring medical assistance. Moving forward, he repeats the Ice Spears against Tasutek.

Cold damage: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 5) = 6
Piercing damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 3) = 5

DC 19 Reflex save to halve the damage and avoid the Trip attempt: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 19

Reflex: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 5 + 2 = 21Forgot a buff last time

Tasutek now stands within the cover of the quickly melting icy constructs, still managing to stay one step ahead of them.

Just as good as a critical hit...if not better! Did I actually KILL it? If so, I use my Soul-Drinker trait.

**Prepares his best Dumbledore impression** 7 Points to Kali!

Sorry, Rhiannon is more of a fighter than a healer, but she can do something at least...

The demonic threat ended by the inscrutable and faintly disturbing monk, Rhiannon gives Kali a nod and then flies toward the fallen Skivven, dropping her shield to the ground as she goes. Reaching forth to touch the ratfolk with her free hand, a prayer to Ragathiel on her lips, the paladin allows a burst of positive energy to course into his body, healing him of the worst of his injuries and stabilizing Skivven.

'Fervor' Healing DRR: 1d6 ⇒ 4 HP of healing for Skivven

To free up a hand, she'd have to either drop sword or shield, and there's no way she's dropping her sword. So free action (while moving) to drop her shield, move 10' to current square on map, then standard action to use 'Fervor' in order to heal. Her AC is now -2 from that listed above (should be -4, but the Protection from Evil grants her +2 back), but next round she'll use the bastard sword in a two-handed grip. Don't forget that everyone within 10' of Rhiannon now has Protection from Evil.

**WHIR-CLICK!** **TICK-TICK-TICKTICKTIKTIKTKTKTKTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!**

As soon as the Rovagan's blade bites into Skivven's vital organs, the needle on his Wayfinder starts spinning incredibly fast, until the grinding of the clockwork device's gears become audible to those nearby. The noise abruptly stops and a small electric jolt is delivered to Skivven's small ratfolk heart.

Essential Field Agent: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (7, 8) + 6 = 21 points of healing as soon as Skivven goes below 0 hp.

Skivven at -50 + 21 = -29 hp

Whereas one moment one would have thought the ratfolk was about to fall backwards, his eyes now grow wide, as one of the two large greataxe wounds closes as fast as it just appeared! Suddenly gasping for air as his lungs receive air once more, Skivven scrambles backwards with a back-flip to the previous rock where he came from, his instincts of preservation taking over.

Acrobatics to avoid AoO and move AWAY!: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31

As he jumps to the rock to the north, Skivven feels the healing touch of Rhiannon. He nods to her appreciatively.

Skivven at -29 + 6 = -23 hp

Skivven then casts vanish, and tells everyone, "Don'tz touchzzzz himmz!!!! you'llgolimppp! shoot'de'bastardsz downz!"

Kelumur attempts to blind the knight once more in hopes to give himself some room to escape.

Improved Dirty Trick (Blind) vs CMD, Sickened: 1d20 + 13 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 13 - 2 = 21

If He is blinded, will move away, If not will maintain position...

Kitani is very angry, her best offensive spells have not given the expected result so she will try her lower level spells. Suddenly from his hands comes an icy cone and Tasutek is hit by an incessant rain of snowballs.
snowball dmg: 4d6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 6, 4, 1) + 2 = 18vs DC19ref

With Skivven's actions taking place prior to Rhiannon's action, I'm going to change my action, if that's OK? I think my target for the cure is now out of range anyway. Instead she will fly around to flank the Doomknight against Kelumur and attack. I've included my Will save, in case that's needed (based on Skivven's earlier attack). My AC will remain the same since I won't drop the shield, and add +2 for the Protection vs Evil

Rhiannon sees Skivven revive and scramble away to safety just as she prepares to thrown down her shield and heal the ratfolk. Instead she circles around behind the knight and brings her sword down with a heavy blow!

Magical +2 Adamantine Bastard Sword Attack DRR: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (17) + 14 = 31 vs Doomknight's AC
Includes +2 for Flanking, +1 for Divine Favor
Bastard Sword Damage DRR: 2d10 + 5 ⇒ (10, 5) + 5 = 20 slashing
Includes +1 for Divine Favor, double weapon damage for Vital Strike

Will Save DRR: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (15) + 15 = 30 vs DC 16 to avoid being stunned next round?
Includes +1 resistance bonus from Magic Circle Evil

Kelumur's tricks are no match for Tasutek's might, but the hail of snowballs and Rhiannon's strike are able to pierce his defenses!

Kitani, I nudged your positioning to allow for a 30' cone to only hit the baddie (assuming some careful ordering of yours and Rhiannon's actions :)

Reflex: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 5 + 2 = 11

Still clinging to life, the madman howls with rage, his wounds resealing in a flare of unholy light as he hurls himself at Rhiannon in a fury!

Cure Serious Wounds: 3d8 + 9 ⇒ (4, 2, 8) + 9 = 23

Greataxe: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 10 + 1 + 2 + 3 = 34
Slashing: 1d12 + 4 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 4 + 3 + 3 = 20
Greataxe: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 5 + 1 + 2 + 3 = 31
Slashing: 1d12 + 4 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 3 + 3 = 19
Confirm?: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 5 + 1 + 2 + 3 = 26 Good time to have that Protection from Evil!
Extra Damage: 2d12 + 8 + 6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 3) + 8 + 6 + 6 = 26

Bold may go!

Tasutek -43 Blessed, Bull's Strength, Water Walk, Barely visible magical field
Kali -6, 8nl, 7 Temp health, Sickened (2), 1 Str, Dex, & Con damage, poisoned, deforming. DC 17 Fort Save or Str Damage: 1d2 ⇒ 1; DC 16 Fort save or 1 Dex & Con Damage, -10 speed, and Nonlethal: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 1) = 5

Actually, in addition to the temporary hit points, I've also actually healed my hit point damage and 7 of the nonlethal after taking down the Qlippoth.

Fortitude save vs poison, sickened: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
Fortitude save vs AUUUUUUUUGHHHH!!!, sickened: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

Kali's shudders subside slightly, and she draws a long, somewhat frightening breath before turning about and launching herself at Tasutek!

[dice=BOOT TO THE HEAD!, +1 Strike, sickened]1d20+7[/dice]
Ki Flurry, sickened: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Ki Flurry, sickened: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Ki Flurry, sickened: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Belier's Bite bleed damage if that hits: 1d4 ⇒ 2

Kali has never drank of the essence of a qlippoth before; perhaps it doesn't agree with her.

Ah, missed that Life Funnel triggered on the KO

Kitani concentrates and flares out of his hands focusing on Tasutek
burning hands: 5d4 + 2 ⇒ (3, 3, 3, 2, 3) + 2 = 16

Eirwen moves to the side to have the enemy in a straight line and launches a condensed snowball at him over the water.

Snowball ranged touch attack, in melee: 1d20 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (3) + 6 - 4 = 5 If Ultimate Wilderness rules are used, there is no save against it.
Cold Damage: 5d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 2, 4, 6) = 24

@GM: What are Tasutek's buffs in regards to the greataxe swings? i.e. the + 2 + 3 + 2 part of the swing that went against Skivven. I'm curious as I suddenly feel like making a CN cleric of Rovagug... :P

Once again, Skivven silently curses at his heavy accent as he sees his fellow Pathfinders swarming the Rovagan in melee, having not understood his recommendation to disengage and shoot from a distance. Nonetheless, from the safety of both his invisibility and his cover position on the other side of the northern boulder, Skivven takes a 5-foot step to the west and points a clawed finger at Tasutek to produce a tiny compressed orb of acid aimed at Tasutek's neck.

Acid Splash CL 6th Range 40 ft., Ranged Touch, Invisible, Shooting into Melee; Sneak Attack: 1d20 + 9 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 9 + 2 - 4 = 15 vs. Touch AC modified by a +4 bonus to AC from soft cover by Rhiannon for 1d3 + 3d6 ⇒ (3) + (2, 1, 4) = 10 acid damage plus Slow Reactions plus Disoriented.

As soon as the orb is unleashed, Skivven ducks back into his sniping position.

Stealth, Sniping, Rogue's Edge: Stealth Skill Unlock (reduce sniping penalty by 10): 1d20 + 17 - 20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 17 - 20 + 10 = 21

Whew! Big time thanks Eirwen for that spell, and to Skivven too for getting himself out of harm's way before Rhiannon could move. If she had dropped her shield, she would have taken yet ANOTHER axe crit!

The Doomknight's axe carves a deep wound into her right shoulder, and her eyes go wide as she realizes she is too late to block the evil warrior's killing blow with her shield as he brings his weapon back around with surprising speed! But the magic of Eirwen's spell deflects the axe blade just a bit, so that it only bites into her shield arm. A painful wound, but not life-threatening - though another series of blows could very well finish her.

The paladin of Ragathiel holds firm though, returning the blows of the Doomknight with her own while using her magic to bring a bit a bit of healing to her worst injuries.

Fervor Healing: 1d6 ⇒ 5 HP healed

Will Save DRR: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 19 vs DC 16 to avoid being stunned next round?
Includes +1 resistance bonus from Magic Circle Evil

I am going to use my Folio Reroll for that first attack, if that's OK? Here goes...
Magical +2 Adamantine Bastard Sword Attack DRR: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29 vs Doomknight's AC

Ah! That's better!

Since he has (multiple) buffs up that haven't been identified by anyone, I'll forbear for now on the total breakdown, Skivven, but I'll be happy to walk you through them afterwards!

Kitani, I'm afraid your burning hands doesn't have a safe 15' cone now that everyone's in melee no matter how I rejigger initiative via delaying and the like. You could get in closer (read: adjacent) and cast it to hit only him, but since that's obviously a potentially dangerous move, I'll leave that to you to decide.

The midst of a chaotic battle is obviously exactly where Tasutek wants to be! He safely weathers Kali's slowly weakening blows, ducks Eirwen's sudden snowball, and Skivven's acid sizzles off of the barely seen barrier. Only Rhiannon's blade pierces his guard, and even then, one of her strikes is turned by the nearly invisible force that surrounds him.

Taking advantage of his distraction with Rhiannon, Kelemur strikes from behind!

Silver Dagger,TWF,flank: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 11 - 2 + 2 = 21p/s+ sneak: 1d4 + 6 + 3d6 ⇒ (1) + 6 + (6, 5, 2) = 20

Quick draw and full round attack

Still reeling from the horrors of Tasutek's Qlippoth, Kelumur's strikes fail to pierce his armor. Don't forget your sickened modifiers!

in this loc can i cast without damge partners?

I put the template for you Kitani; you need to make a concentration check to cast defensively: roll 1d20+10 vs. DC 17. If you fail you just lose the spell: you don't get hit. The spell DC for the bad guy vs. burning hands is DC 17.

Thanks Skivven! I'm going to take the liberty of rolling Kitani's concentration to keep us moving

Cast Defensively: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30
Reflex: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 5 + 2 = 25

Tasutek shields himself from what flames he can, but what passes through doesn't seem to scorch him or his equipment!

All things end! But you first! The frothing warrior howls his defiance as his wounds continue to close, hammering his axe into Rhiannon again and again, until she floats limply, held aloft for a moment by unseen wings.

Betrayer gods! So will you fall as well!

Cure Moderate Wounds: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (4, 7) + 9 = 20

Master a question how can you heal and take action on complete action? it's just out of curiosity

Still in stealth mode, Skivven inches forward towards Rhiannon, popping his wand out of his spring-loaded wrist sheath:

Wand of CLW on Rhiannon, UMD: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23 for 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9 points of healing.

Rhiannon at -68 + 9 = -59

Though Rhiannon tries to defend against the Doomknight's unholy fury, but the strength of the paladin fails and she sends a prayer to Ragathiel, asking his forgiveness for her failure and to protect her allies if he can. Then her world becomes a bright, cleansing light and she knows no more...

Ouch! Dang, was hoping he'd miss once and I'd get another round's worth of attacks in there. Good luck folks, if anyone can heal me a bit I might be able to get in another blow - but between his healing, magic protection, high AC and ferocious blows we could be in some serious trouble here... And Kitani, I'm guessing he is using Fervor as a swift action, just like Rhiannon can do! Darn those evil warpriests!!

"No timez to ppprrray! Rhiannonnz!!! TIMESZ TO SLAY!"

@Kitani: rules discussion should be posted in the Discussion thread to keep the action flowing nicely here... but if I was you I'd check out the warpriest class... which I think we've been dealing with here, and it's giving me a new respect for that class... :P

Eirwen, going out of options, goes to a last resort - using the bonded mask's magic.

The mask flashes white as Eirwen motions to cast a spell. A powerful blast of air appears from beneath Tasutek's feet.

If he falls, would he be prone?

Rhiannon's eyes flicker open and she hears the hissing voice of Skivven in her ears. The paladin finds herself floating in the air, but her blade has fallen (presumably), and realizing that it is gone, she grabs for the mace at her belt, straightens and swings at the Doomknight! She takes a moment to heal herself a bit as well.

Masterwork Heavy Mace Attack DRR: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27 vs Doomknight's AC
Includes +2 for Flanking, +1 for Divine Favor
Heavy Mace Damage DRR: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (4, 5) + 3 = 12 bludgeoning
Includes +1 for Divine Favor, Double Weapon Damage for Vital Strike

Fervor Healing: 1d6 ⇒ 5 HP healed

Thanks, Skivven! I'm guessing sword is dropped when I fell unconscious, but heavy shield still strapped to arm? Not sure if a flying person can fall prone or not, presuming from descriptive text that Rhiannon is not prone and won't need to 'stand up', she will draw her mace as a move action and make a standard attack with Vital Strike. If she is indeed technically prone, then swing from prone at -4 to attack roll, if that is possible. Also swift action to use Fervor as healing on herself once more. Most importantly, Kelumur is still flanking, and hopefully will connect to deal some good sneak attack damage!

Reflex vs. Freezing Hands: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 2 = 13
Reflex vs. Air Geyser: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 5 + 2 = 25
Not very important Will save for Rhiannon: 1d20 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 14 + 2 = 35

Faced with a hail of spells, Tasutek's fevered certainty finally wavers, right as Rhiannon's mace cracks into his head, the ritual scars on his face tearing open into freshly grotesque shapes as he collapses to the ground.

Woohoo!!! Denouement and chronicles tonight!

No bold!!!! none may go??? :P is it... really over... really? or is this just yet another evil GM trick! lol but seriously... this was one tough MOFO... I'll take you up on that offer to explain his buffs against Skivven... Warpriest is where it's at in terms of my next PC I think... wow... just wow...

Eirwen looks forward to returning to the monastery of Tar Kuata. Now that Pathfinders have proven their worth and mettle, the monks won't hesitate to entrust them with an artifact any more.

Moreover, Eirwen has an opportunity to talk to the monks, to look for the one who could equal the mysterious Narmek Tar Kuata and to try and enlist him to accept an ultimate test of power - the Sage Jewel.

It looks like we are wrapping up, but I still have an issue to settle with the monks. Maybe this one will help:
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28

The commonly accepted path toward self-perfection rarely involves revelry, yet when you make your victorious return, even stoic Tar Kuata celebrates news of the cultists’ defeat!

Bertrag narrates his account of your deeds, and Aeotsep warmly congratulates you on overcoming such a trial. Honoring their bargain, Itephta and Menkha formally transfer their Sky Key component to the Pathfinder Society. Itephta also gives you a sealed letter to deliver to the Society, extending his compliments and friendship. Lastly, Itephta also offers you honorary admission to the monastery, should you wish to continue their studies.

Eirwen's inquiries find a more receptive audience after the Doomsday Knight's defeat as well. Aeotsep confides in you the name of this absent paragon, Dhiara. She travels abroad to test her skills against challenges greater than she can find here, but she has written us recently, he produces a letter, perhaps this will help contact her.

***

When you present him with both the newly found piece of the Sky Key and the letter of praise from the monastery’s leader, Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir praises you effusively for a job well done. We'll just have to get this back to Absalom before some sort of catastrophe strikes! If that's your next port of call, we could certainly use the extra guards!

Fin
