| Cretien Dufrene |
"I haven't seen the Professor here, though you insist I am him, some strange magic in this place is clouding your mind. If i could access my own magic, this would all be no trouble."
single move straight down, turn around and bring rifle to bear, readied standard action to shoot an enemy to help Angus out as him and his enemies come running up
readied shot: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
dmg+firepower: 1d10 + 1 + 2d8 ⇒ (9) + 1 + (8, 8) = 26
| Johnathan Eli Holbrook |
Johnathan keeps running 30', then stops a moment to concentrate. Another mirror image appears, but this Johnathan breaks off from the rest and starts waving at the mummies. Just as they're about to reach the illusory Johnathan, it climbs up the verticle wall just out of reach of the mummies--and starts making silly faces at them.
Silent Image, if they touch the illusion they can make a DC 16 will save to 'disbelieve' it.
1 Level 1 spell left.
| LeMond Asher |
Asher will attempt to full-round withdraw to just behind Cretien. If he has to provoke the guy near the exit door, then he'll acrobatics to tumble.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24
"We still have time!" He yells after Falko and Johnathan. "Get back here and give him some cover! The water isn't even at his heels!"
| GMEDWIN |
the water is still rushing in.

Chretien, Falko and Angus
| Cretien Dufrene |
bite AoO: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Cretien takes his AoO, then withdraws along the same path Jonathan went.
| LeMond Asher |
Haha, oh no. I had a feeling this was coming (I forgot I could acrobatics away from dudes, took an unnecessary AoO! )! I'll be on discussion planning up a new character. GOOD LUCK GUYS!
GM: Any chance for getting out some final words?
| LeMond Asher |
With the fatal spear injury, Asher drops his weapon and turns towards Cretien and with a gasp of pain croaks. "Tell... The Viscount I can't make his party... Duty and all..." before collapsing to the ground.
| Angus McCormick |
Longsword AOO: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 272d6 + 7 ⇒ (1, 1) + 7 = 9
Angus with an immediate action will use his Hands of Retribution 4pts, (1/2 fire 1/2 holy) on the mummy
if i read the combat map correctly i am surrounded and can't really move as two undead are blocking both my ways correct ?
| Angus McCormick |
Angus will attack the nearest ennemy that looks the most wounded attacking it
PA Longsword: 1d20 + 9 - 1 ⇒ (14) + 9 - 1 = 222d6 + 10 ⇒ (3, 2) + 10 = 15
And then using his movement action will set up his shield again and hold the longsword with one hand to benefit from its protection
Current AC should be 21 while enlarged

Angus, Group 3, Falko, Chretien
| Falko Escheus |
Wasn't Angus' roll to cast without creating an AoO?
Falko curses under his breath as the mummy reaches him.
These are no zombies! They're so fast!?
Do these things look ancient or recent?
He bites his lips and turns around, shouting to John, then to his companions: "They're still in there! We have to buy them some time to get out! ANGUS!!! ASHER!!! CRETIEN!!! COM'ON AND GET OUTTA THERE!!!"
And he strikes at the mummy with his father's help.
Malice rapier w/ Luck: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 2 = 151d6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 2 = 7
| Cretien Dufrene |
religion: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11 to know of any weakness, particularly something that can stop them? grasping at straws here
Cretien uses the withdraw action once more, and in doing so attempts to slide past the mummy behind Falko with a quick maneuver.
acrobatics: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 to avoid AoO
| Johnathan Eli Holbrook |
Next round
Johnathan shouts as Cretien comes around the corner, "He made it!"
He'll move with Cretien and Falko wherever they go with his 30' of movement.
Then he concentrates, dismissing Enlarge Person off Angus. "Is Angus behind you? Where's Asher?"
| GMEDWIN |
I had posted yesterday but it had gotten eaten. First, you need to declare what you are going to do. Not leave it up for me to guess. And then if I have to guess, don't give me an arrogant smug answer. Like you did in the discussion thread.
AOO vs. Chretien 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13 miss
AOO vs. Chretien 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12 miss

John
| Johnathan Eli Holbrook |
Johnathan concentrates a moment, summoning up the very last of his willpower for a final color spray. No lvl1 spells left.
DC 16 Will
He says weakly, "We...we have to go," and moves 30' past the sarcophagus alcoves, hugging the far wall if there's any potential AoO's against him.
| GMEDWIN |
Will save Mummy Warrior 1 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 fail, Mummy warrior 2 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 fail, Mummy Spellcaster 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 pass

PA Longsword: 1d20 + 9 - 4 - 1 ⇒ (17) + 9 - 4 - 1 = 212d6 + 7 ⇒ (2, 5) + 7 = 14
current AC 26 (still enlarged)
Angus will shout at his friends
I can't come to you my way is blocked by two mummy and i have one closing up behind me. I am currently fighting them but i can't probably defeat all of them. Should i manage to get one more down i might have a chance but Heavy armor and water up to my waist slow me down. I ma pretty much Done for. I'll buy you time and hold them off for as long as i can Saves yourselves, there is no other way !
| Cretien Dufrene |
Withdraw after Falko.
acrobatics attempt to avoid AoOs: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23
| GMEDWIN |
AOO vs Falko slam 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21 hit 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12 Falko is unconscious.
Chretien makes his way out of the Ziggurat with Johnathan in front of him. At this point within the Ziggurat water bursts out from everywhere and Falko's unconscious body gets flung out the entrance of the ziggurat landing in the bayou just in front of the ziggurat. Angus's takes 1d6 ⇒ 2 acid damage from the toxic water and then his body hits a wall at 50 miles an hour and causing him to lose consciousness as well and he drowns.
As John and Chretien emerge from the ziggurat with only seconds to spare, but they are not safe. From the mouth of the ruin they spot shapes moving beyond in the rain, advancing from all directions. The three corpses from the camp stand nearby, reaching out to attack them, and out in the swamp it seems as if every dead creature within a mile has risen and is shambling toward you.
The deadly flood makes going back beneath the ziggurat impossible,
and there must be thousands of creatures—peat-coated skeletons, zombified
crocodiles, hollow carapaces of spiders, and swarms of centipedes,
bats, and blood-thirsting birds. Beneath the cries of the throng, they hear a deep sound, like a growling voice.
It seems the only safe path is to climb the ziggurat.
| Johnathan Eli Holbrook |
Johnathan casts a fresh Mirror Image.
1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
But he only manages to conjure 1 extra image, for a total of 3 exhausted Johnathans.
1 lvl2 spell left.
He then tries to reach Falko and drag him out of the water towards the Ziggurat.
Unless that's impossible
| Cretien Dufrene |
i will pour a potion down Falko's throat if that is an option. CLW, can spare two if i can also spare that many actions.
| Falko Escheus |
"Wait- What-! Bloody Thousand Hells, this place is a giant death trap!" garbles Falko as he regains consciousness.
He doesn't talk when the eldritch advice is uttered, his head spinning and his guts curling, all he can really do is try his best to climb, all wet and muddy, his limbs tired from the ordeal, his heart sinking for the loos of his friends.
Climb if needed: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
| Johnathan Eli Holbrook |
As they climb frantically away from the horde, up the ziggurat, Johnathan starts muttering and rambling. "It's all wrong--I saw you die in there Falko--I saw it--Asher got tossed into the bayou--not you--you're not supposed to be alive--it's broken--my sight was wrong--this place is wrong--I hate this place--Voice of Rot--I want to go home."
| Cretien Dufrene |
"Onwards... I sense a way out of here."
Chretien climbs.
| GMEDWIN |
As you climb the horde gets closer and closer.When the horde is within charging distance, a massive shape moves
in the rain, almost as if the swamp itself is rising up, alive. Swaths of the
hungry dead are pulled beneath the surface, and then the head of the
marshy shape snakes out of the rain from the side and cuts off the approach
of the undead. A titanic serpent, its half-rotted skull 20 feet long,
snaps its teeth down upon the front line of the horde, and as it devours
the dead it locks one enormous, milky gray eye on the party.
This is the Voice of Rot, fey titan of the High Bayou, who has slumbered
for centuries without disturbance by man. With a few brief thrashes of his coils, the titan—who is so large that
the party can hardly make out the scale of his body through the haze of
rain—destroys the gathered undead. Then he withdraws into the drizzle,
partially hidden. You can only make out his general silhouette, but
the dull light from a single eye shines like a beacon.
The voice of the titan is at once both guttural and
sibilant.
It says, "Your number be lest than my original counting in the bayou, your gifts shall be rewarded."
It then brings the tip of its tail out of the swamp and shakes it. This then shoots out the corpses of Angus and Lemond. He slams the ground with its tail and their bodies come back to life.
Asher and McCormick, you have been resurrected with a Raise Dead spell, making you come back with 2 negative levels. With 2 HP plus your Constitution Modifier. In addition you take 2 minus points to your Charisma, due to the acidic water.
It continues, "My slumber is disturbed. You, agents of King Kelland, shall redress this offense. Most that fled your mortal trap were mute beasts. One had reason. It can be judged. Follow the scent of its homeland’s blood. Find it. Cut its flesh, then do as you please.'
The voice sounds like insects on a rotting carcass, like rain on a stagnant pond.
'Kill it, and it will rot. Send it home, and it will despair. Either, and I shall be appeased.' the voice demands.
All of you with magic affinity get Detect Planar Energy, this should go to Angus, Falko, Johnathan... when Chretien was a Technosmith he would have gotten it but now, I am not sure.
Detect Planar Energy
The energy drifts to you like a fragrance on a breeze. You spin and locate the strongest
source of the smell, then set out.
School divination; Level bard 1, cleric 1, druid 1, sorcerer/wizard 1
Casting Time 1 standard action
Component: V,S
Range 1 mile
Duration: 1 hour
Saving Throw none; Spell Resistance no
Choose a plane you have visited, or otherwise have had contact with. For the
spell’s duration you can sense the direction to and intensity of energies from that
plane, to a maximum range of one mile. These energies tend to fade after a few hours
or days, but it is possible to track creatures native to other planes by following their
trails. The spell can be foiled by strong sources of energy from the same or other
planes. For instance, Cauldron Hill in Flint is a powerful beacon of shadow energy,
so you would be unable to pinpoint any sort of foreign energy there, not even fey or
elemental energy.
