Game Master Derek Weil

Walter turns in the direction of the shattering glass and released water.

perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

He prepares to move--blindly--in that direction with his longspear positioned to strike at the target.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

ignore if he fails check to move

longspear: 1d20 + 4 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 1 + 1 = 91d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Abadar will not allow this to go unpunished!

My turn is already up. It falls on the wizard and the alchemist.

Gillwoman's relfex save to avoic bomb damage.

Reflex Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Johann's bomb scars her, but the gillwoman flexes her legs, preparing to jump in the water.

End of Round.

New Round:

Sambar, gillwoman, Muteki, Walter, Johann.

Does she have the artifact?

No, the others did, and now Walter has it.

Sambar will cast an acid dart at the bar maid.
Acid Dart: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 81d6 ⇒ 1
blind: 1d100 ⇒ 92

Walter places the relic inside his shirt.

He then attempts to regain his feet, holding his longspear out in front of him defensively.

He also listens intently for anyone approaching him.

perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22

Beware the caster!

If she doesn't flee on my move I will charge her.

Attack 1d20 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 1 + 3 + 2 + 2 = 25

Damage if it Hits [dice[1d8+5[/dice]

If she flees. I will announce myself to Walter and stand near him in the event he's attacked.

er
1d8 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Sambar's spell misses the gillwoman. Just as Muteki is about to strike she leaps into the water below the bar and disappears.

You restrain the other downed gillmen, and heal them back to consciousness. You also recvers a sealed envelope from one of them and open it, revealing a letter. It reads:

"To my superiors in the Consortium: Our plan has come to fruition! As you know, last month I approached the Decemvirate offering a trade. I explained that an underwater search off the coast of the Isle of Erran had unearthed a valuable relic the Society would likely want, but that my people wanted a piece from the Grand Lodge’s vault in exchange. Now that the plan is complete, we have one of the Ten's prized relics at little cost to ourselves!

I began spreading rumors of the Consortium’s desire to obtain the same gillman relic. I also employed an unarmed vessel to masquerade as a warship monitoring Absalom’s harbor, threatening to intercept any Pathfinder vessel sent to Escadar, and I took pains to make sure the Society heard that the Aspis Consortium would soon make a bid for the artifact themselves.

Thus pressured, the fools repsonded, and we have won!

Yours,

Ulionestra

You turn Ulionestra's accomplices over to the gillman embassy in Escadar. The ambassador is shocked to learn of the events and genuinely had no idea of the actions of his countrymen. The ambassador accepts Lady Morilla's letter and smirks to himself, shaking his head, after reading it. He doesn't share the contents with you.

You return by ship to the Grand Lodge where Drandle Dreng thanks you for your efforts and praises your success and resourcefulness. He apologizes for sending you on a fool's errand and add his warning that as Pathfinders, you must always be on your guard against the devious planning of the Aspis Consortium. They are the greatest threat to the Pathfinder Society in Golarion.

The End.
