GM Endless Forms' PFS 01-45 Delirium's Tangle (Inactive)

Game Master Mike Tuholski

Finally broken by the insane elf's strong will and the torment of this dungeon Nari, looks up hopelessly at the elf and begins to giggle insanely.

Evil Eye - -2 to saves, DC 15. Extended via Cackle.

Seeing Nari's spell is going to fail to catch hold despite her magics Omorose attempts to alter fate again, and this time his will fails to hold off Nari's magics.

"Do you think he might know where this ancient elven hourglass we are after is Nari?"

Elf Misfortune Will Reroll: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Will Save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

"Uh, rude! Nah, I'll be hanging on to my weapon, thanks.

Double move to get to the Prince.

"Do you think he might know where this ancient elven hourglass we are after is Nari?"

Abysiel would certainly know.

---

Random summons an unseen servant.

Will: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
2d4 ⇒ (3, 2) = 5

Omorose alters fate to cause the elf to be hypnotized.

Nari then gives him a glare.

Whit Vander moves in towards the Prince.

---

The elf hangs hypnotized by Nari's words. Nari can make simple requests of him during the duration of the spell.

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 saves, hypnotized for 4 more rounds

You guys are up!

Is there an obvious way up onto the catwalks GM?

There are ladders where the catwalks connect with the walls.

Omorose moves over and begins to climb the ladder.

Is it possible for me to take on climb 10? We are in combat, but there do not seem to be any threats give the hypnotism.

"Follow me, squire!" Random moves across the room to the minotaur prince and Vander. [b]"I've got a potion of cure wounds, an acid flask and a crowbar. That oughta help us get him out of these chains. My invisible squire should get here in a sec. He can give him the cure potion, if you want to take the crowbar to try to break the chain."[\b] Random turns and drops his pack to the floor, so Vander can dig out the crowbar.

Double move. Not sure the action to drop a backpack. If it's more than a free or swift, then he'll do it next round.

"I am sure I can pick the locks, but I would rather deal with this elf first.." Omorose calls from the ladder.

Nari glares at the dangling elf, her crazed giggling continuing under her breath. "Stop with the spellcasting Mr. Elf, we would prefer not to hurt you, but we will defend ourselves. Can you answer her question please. Where is this ancient hourglass? Oh! And an exit to this cursed, horrible place. "

Standard Action - Misfortune hex on Abysiel. Move Action - Cackle.

"Well, if we're mortal, and he's not, there may be no 'dealing with' him. Find out about the hourglass and let's get the prince before that spell wears off!"

Omorose rolls her eyes, "Plenty of stuff that's not mortal can be dealt with. I would rather be ready to beat him when he snaps out of Nari's spell."

Will: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 4 - 2 = 19

The elf motions to the device above him when questioned about the hourglass. Indeed, there is an hourglass but it looks like it would take a fair amount of work to extract it from the machine. He points towards the door when asked about an exit.

@Omorose: I suppose since you're not being threatened that would be ok.

Omorose begins to climb up the ladder. Random moves over and formulates a plan. Nari tries to hex the elf but he resists it.

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 saves, hypnotized for 4 more rounds

Vander is up!

"If you can here me, hang in there, Nuar! We're here to help! I'm going to try to get you out of these chains." Vander finds the crowbar in Random's pack, forces it at one of the links, and begins to twist the chain, hoping to apply enough force to break a link.

Strength check: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

The crowbar gives a +2 to the strength check against locks and doors; assuming that can apply to breaking a chain, the bonus brings my check to a 14.

"Boys it is also our mission to get the hourglass, so we are not leaving without dealing with the elf first anyway. Once we have him safely unconscious I can... Oh nevermind," Omorose sighs.

Random pulls out a flask of green liquid from his pack, and pours it onto a few links of the chain. "Try breaking it here. Maybe the acid'll weaken it. Squire! Pull out a cure potion!" His bag soon shakes a little until a red potion emerges.

Move action to retreive acid flask. Standard to apply it to the chain.
Unseen servant move action to catch up. Second move action to retrieve the CLW.

Vander and Random work on the chain, breaking it apart. The unseen servant moves up and takes out a potion.

The elf still hangs hypnotized by Nari's spell.

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander

3. Random

A: -2 saves, hypnotized for 3 more rounds

You guys are up!

"Squire, feed the cure potion to the minotaur! Nari! I've got a drink for your new friend! He looks parched hanging up there! Why is he hanging up there, anyway?"

Random pulls out another green vial and shows it to Nari, though he tries to use his body to conceal it from the elf. He starts over toward the ladder, slinging his bow onto his back.

Omorose finishes climbing the ladder and advances slowly trying to look nonthreatening.

"Hold tight, Nuar," Vander whispers to the now-unchained minotaur. "You look to be feeling a bit better, so if things get ugly, leave the room or hide if you need to. We need to retrieve the hourglass above the elf. Do you know anything about it... or the elf?"

Vander will wait to see if Nuar responds and will then move toward the ladder.

Random, Omorose, and Vander make for the ladder!

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 saves, hypnotized for 3 more rounds

Nari is up!

Does Nari want to do anything?

Nari continues to glare at the dangling elf, giggling wildly at the current predicament.

Standard Action - Evil Eye (AC), Move Action - Cackle.

Sorry about the delay weekends are tough for me to post during

@Nari: No problem. Games always tend to slow down on weekends.

Will: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 4 - 2 = 12

Nari gives the man a disapproving look.

---

The elf continues to wait, hypnotized by Nari's looks.

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

[ooc]A: -2 AC, -2 saves, hypnotized for 2 more rounds

You guys are up!

Forgot to put the action in ooc, but Random's unseen servant should have spent the last round giving a potion of CLW to Nuar. Did he wake up?
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Random climbs up to the catwalk.

Double-move to climb up ladder.

Omorose moves into position and readies herself to cast burning hand and cover her foe in fire if he begins casting a spell, or makes a move to attack.

Vander makes it up to the catwalk.

Double-move to climb the ladder.

Random's servant feeds Nuar the potion. The minotaur wakes up but looks weakened, as if he has lost a lot of power.

Omorose moves up and readies a spell.

Vander moves across the catwalk to approach the elf.

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 AC, -2 saves, hypnotized for 2 more rounds

Nari is up!

As he is still fascinated, Nari can feel free to retcon something from her missed turn but I'll go ahead and move on to the next round:

The elf is still hypnotized!

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 AC, -2 saves, hypnotized for 1 more rounds

You guys are up!

Randoms runs along the catwalk to the elf with his 'drink' in hand.

Double move.

Nari stands there staring at the elf angrily as her giggling continues.

Missed Round
Add Attack Rolls to his ongoing evil eye debuffs.

Current Round
I don't really want to hurt him yet. Hopefully everyone else will get into a position where we don't have to kill this elf. He looks as if he's suffered more from this place then me. Nari looks around at her companions.

If Random is in range. Nari will cast fortune on him. After cackling for the round of course. If not in range then Nari will move forward slightly to get in range of her companions on the catwalk above.

Random runs along the catwalk.

Will: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 4 - 2 = 4

Nari continues to give the elf bad looks while granting Random good fortune.

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 AC, -2 saves, -2 attacks, hypnotized for 1 more rounds

Omorose and Vander are up!

Omorose continues to watch the elf ready to douse him in flame if he casts a spell and try to disrupt it.

Omorose keeps her spell ready!

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 AC, -2 saves, -2 attacks, hypnotized for 1 more rounds

Vander!

Vander moves forward until he is at the elf's side.

Double-move to get close to the elf.

"I understand that you are in pain and not in a good place right now. I also know that you are not evil. Please, let us help you--I don't wish to hurt you. Is there anything more you can tell us about opening the device above you?"

"I am the device!" the elf screams maniacally as Vander closes in on him.

last round of hypnotism!

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 AC, -2 saves, -2 attacks

You guys are up!

"Nari, ask him to drink this delicious elixir that satisfies both people and devices!"

Random offers the flask of acid to the nutty elf.

I think we might have triggered a save or two for him at this point. Hypnotism renders the subject fascinated and fascinated says

Any potential threat, such as a hostile creature approaching, allows the fascinated creature a new saving throw against the fascinating effect. Any obvious threat, such as someone drawing a weapon, casting a spell, or aiming a ranged weapon at the fascinated creature, automatically breaks the effect.

Will: 1d20 + 4 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 2 - 2 = 10
Will: 1d20 + 4 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 4 + 2 - 2 = 12

Yes, Nari's hexes would have given him a new save I suppose but he didn't make it out anyways.

---

Random pulls out a flask and hands it over to Abysiel.

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 AC, -2 saves, -2 attacks

You guys are up!

Sounds good to me.

Omorose looks for a spell component pouch on the elf while still holding her spell ready.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Nari quirks her head at Random's flask.

"Are you sure...that doesn't look very satisfying." Nari comments.

Suppose this elf probably won't go quietly...

"Hey Mr. Elf, how about you drink Random's nice flask. I'm sure it's good for you. Random wouldn't lie to anyone." Nari adds

She slowly removes her crossbow and sets a bolt in it, in preparation for something to happen.

Random gives Nari a dirty look from the catwalk. Aren't women supposed to be better at lying than that?

"Well, it is satisfying! It's very satisfying! If I was hanging around for who-knows-how-long, this would be very refreshing to me! So, yeah... there!" He rolls his eyes and watches if the elf still buys it.

Bluff: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Fortune reroll?: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Omorose notes that the elf does not have a spell-component pouch while she keeps ready to cast a spell.

Nari pulls out her crossbow and gets it ready, knowing that her hypnotism is about to wear off.

Random holds out the flask and the elf takes it and looks like he is about to drink it.

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 AC, -2 saves, -2 attacks

Vander is up!

Vander will first wait to see if the elf drinks the potion.

"Alright, well, I'm terribly sorry, but you don't seem like you're going to help us. Being able to access the device and retrieve the hourglass is pertinent to our mission, and if you can't help us or back down, well...

Vander swings at the elf with the flat side of his blade. "...sorry about this."

Non-lethal Attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Vander swings with the flat of his blade and barely misses the elf.

---

Abysiel lets out a crazed laugh as he drops Random's flask of acid and casts a spell.

DC 17 Defensive Casting: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

Suddenly the space around him is covered in mist.

20% miss chance if you are 5' away; 50% miss chance if you are further away than 5'.

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 AC, -2 saves, -2 attacks

You guys are up!

Random steps closer toward Omorose so that she can step into the breach and hit him with her burned hands. Or burning hands, whatever.

He draws his longsword and tries to swing through the mist. However, the mist eludes him. You might say he missed the mist.

Low 20 misses: 1d100 ⇒ 82
Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

*I forgot, Omorose's spell would have gone off as a readied when he cast. I'll let her roll the damage. Let's see if he was actually able to cast his spell:

concentration: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

So as long as Omorose does 1 point of damage, his spell is disrupted and there is no obscuring mist!

---

Random fires an arrow but catches on his sleeve and falls to the floor.

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 AC, -2 saves, -2 attacks

Omorose, Nari, and Vander are up!

Nari cackles wildly and lets loose with her crossbow

Move Action - cackle. Standard Action - crossbow fire

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
dmg: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Nari continues to chuckle to herself as she misses with her crossbow.

Initiative:

1. Omorose, Nari, and Vander
2. Abysiel
3. Random

A: -2 AC, -2 saves, -2 attacks

Omorose and Vander are up!
