Don't worry about rolling that AoO on Agent 1, Elizabeth.
Aamiri slices the first agent in half and Seelah pushes her way past the second agent, but not before he swings his battleaxe at her.
attack: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 4 = 16
damage: 1d8 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 4 = 13
Seelah throws back the curtains but the room appears empty and she can not see the Empress anywhere.
Initiatives:
1. The Empress and the Aspis
2. Elizabeth, Krella, Phos, Aamiri, Kuduro, and Seelah
Elizabeth, Phos, and Kuduro are up! And Seelah can finish her action.
Lady Seelah |
Seelah will use her remaining action to call upon her ability to detect evil and begin to concentrate on the area in front of her.
Seelah yells out from behind the curtain, "She's gone! Vanished!"
"Phos" |
Phos steps around the Aspis agent with ease (also hoping he doesn't have combat reflexes, but just in case, Phos' AC is currently 19), and slips behind the curtain into the next room with Seelah. He quickly casts arcane sight and looks over the room, searching for any magical auras, particularly of the school of illusion.

Miss Elizabeth |
Miss Elizabeth follows Seelah behind the curtain. Seeing that the paladin is indeed correct - I had no doubt - she begins searching diligently for any sign of the empress.
Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23
EndlessForms |
There is evil in the room near Seelah. Phos detects an illusion aura to his left as he enters the room. Seconds later Kuduro casts a spell and both Elizabeth and the Empress appear out of thin air.
Krella screams out, "It's over, Durriya! Your tyranny has gone on long enough!" as she casts a spell and directs her pet rat to attack.
Krella casts Flame Strike on the Aspis agent
Aspis Ref DC 18 for half: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
fire damage: 8d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 1, 3, 5, 2, 3, 3) = 22
"Get him, Darkeyes! He's nice and crispy now!"
bite: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17
damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Aspis Fort DC 15 against disease: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
Darkeyes fails to bite the savory Aspis agent.
Initiatives:
1. The Empress and the Aspis
2. Elizabeth, Krella and Darkeyes, Phos, Aamiri, Kuduro, and Seelah
You guys are up!
Lady Seelah |
As the evil creature appears thanks to Kuduro's magic, Seelah sees her chance to strike the beast down and steps into combat...
5' step to be adjacent to the empress
Seelah calls out a challenge to the empress, filling her with a divine sense of purpose. "Back to the foul hole you spawned from!"
Swift action, Smite Evil. Power attack
Attacks bypassing all DR if they hit of course
Attack #1: 1d20 + 14 + 2 + 2 + 5 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 14 + 2 + 2 + 5 + 1 - 2 = 23
Damage: 1d8 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 4 + 2 + 14 = 27
Attack #2 (Haste): 1d20 + 14 + 2 + 2 + 5 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 14 + 2 + 2 + 5 + 1 - 2 = 36
Damage: 1d8 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 4 + 2 + 7 = 26
Attack #3: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 + 5 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 2 + 2 + 5 + 1 - 2 = 23
Damage: 1d8 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 4 + 2 + 7 = 22
EndlessForms |
Woops, guess I should have posted the Empress' actions. Was worried about forgetting Krella and I forgot the villain!
the Aspis agent swings at Krella: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
attack 2 on Krella: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
The Empress then throws a bolt of lightning at Seelah and Kuduro.
electricity damage: 7d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 1, 2, 1, 4, 4) = 16
Seelah DC 16 Ref for half: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Kuduro DC 16 Ref for half: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Kuduro then draws a wand and readies to dispel if the Empress tries to cast again. Seelah's first attack misses but her second attack slices open the Empress' arm. The third attack bounces off of her thick hide.
Initiatives:
1. The Empress and the Aspis
2. Elizabeth, Krella and Darkeyes, Phos, Aamiri, Kuduro, and Seelah
Elizabeth, Phos, and Aamiri are up!
"Phos" |
Casting defensively (If necessary, I cannot see the map. Concentration: 1d20 + 9 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 + 9 = 28, DC:10+(2x2)=14), Phos casts communal protection from evil on his party members, as well as the druid.
EndlessForms |
Phos casts a spell to protect his companions and Aamiri tears into the other Aspis agent, although he remains standing after the blow.
Initiatives:
1. The Empress and the Aspis
2. Elizabeth, Krella and Darkeyes, Phos, Aamiri, Kuduro, and Seelah
Elizabeth is up!
Miss Elizabeth |
Hey everyone, sorry for the delay.
Seeing no way to position herself in such a way as to catch the empress of-guard, Elizabeth quickly decides to charge and do her best to damage Durriya. As she reaches the ratfolk empress, Elizabeth holds her rapier out in front of her, looking to plunge the blade as deeply as possible.
Charge!: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 11 + 2 = 14
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Edit: Sigh...
EndlessForms |
Elizabeth charges her foe but misses Durriya entirely.
Krella raises her hands to the sky and produces a storm of hailstones down upon the Aspis agent. (Ice Storm)
bludgeoning damage: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 6) = 12
cold damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 1) = 3
The Aspis agent then collapses to the floor.
Defensive Casting DC 17: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20
The Empress says a few quick words and pats her chest, as her body is momentary surrounded by a faint glow. (Mage Armor)
Initiatives:
1. The Empress
2. Elizabeth, Krella and Darkeyes, Phos, Aamiri, Kuduro, and Seelah
You guys are up!
"Phos" |
Doesn't Elizabeth still have silence on her? Could the Empress cast in the silence? I realize that this nerfs Phos as well. I was going to cast Gr. Invis. on Elizabeth again (using Phos' bonded object), but realized he can't. *sigh* If I missed something and the Silence is gone, I would like to instead have Phos recast GI on Elizabeth.
Phos moves up behind Elizabeth, reaches out and touches her on the back, imparting Diviner's Fortune (+4 to attack rolls, skill checks, ability checks, and saving throws for 1 round).
EndlessForms |
Nope, you are right. I forgot about Silence. Boy, you guys really shut her down. However, Kuduro also has Invisibility Purge up so I don't think recasting Greater Invisibility would do anything anyways. Invisibility Purge just says it negates all forms of invisibility within the radius of the spell. Allow me to retcon Durriya's action then. . . .
The Empress will lash back at Seelah with her kukri.
attack 1: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (9) + 16 = 25
damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
attack 2: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19

2. Elizabeth, Krella and Darkeyes, Phos, Aamiri, Kuduro, and Seelah
You guys are up!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand, cue destruction.
Lady Seelah |
Seelah's AC against her is a disgusting 31 right now if my math is correct. Possibly more.
Seelah tries to shout out a question and realized she is within the silenced area, so it goes unheard as she hammers into the empress with another series of attacks, using a little less force this time around.
Swift Action, Lay on Hands 3d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 4) = 12
Attack#1: 1d20 + 14 + 2 + 2 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 14 + 2 + 2 + 5 + 1 = 27

Good lord my rolls are stinking.

Seelah strikes out hard with three solid hits, but the ratfolk-in-disguise still stands strong.
Initiatives:
1. The Empress
2. Elizabeth, Krella and Darkeyes, Phos, Aamiri, Kuduro, and Seelah
Elizabeth, Phos, Aamiri, and Kuduro are up!

Aamiri opens up a nasty wound on the Empress' side and she is starting to look weak. Phos gives Elizabeth some support.
Initiatives:
1. The Empress
2. Elizabeth, Krella and Darkeyes, Phos, Aamiri, Kuduro, and Seelah
Elizabeth and Kuduro are up!
Miss Elizabeth |
Elizabeth steps up to the Empress, then unleashes a couple of vicious attacks with her rapier.
Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 11 + 4 = 23
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Hasted Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Haste is still active right? And one can make a full-attack after a 5' step, correct?
EndlessForms |
Elizabeth steps up to poke at Durriya but her rapier can't pierce the hide of the Empress.
Initiatives:
1. The Empress
2. Elizabeth, Krella and Darkeyes, Phos, Aamiri, Kuduro, and Seelah
Kuduro is up!
EndlessForms |
Unless you can use Silent Spell, you won't actually be able to cast Prayer. I just realized I had Krella casting spells earlier and didn't think about it. Oh well, Aamiri was tearing through the Aspis guys anyways.
Krella and Darkeyes move up into the room. Krella throws a dagger at Durriya.
attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19
damage: 1d3 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0
Surrounded by foes and unable to cast any spells, the Empress continues to slash with her kukri, this time at Aamiri.
attack 1: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (13) + 16 = 29
damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
attack 2: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22

Aamiri Yngveldur |

Miss Elizabeth |
Miss Elizabeth tries to duck from the fountains of blood that are now spouting from the empress, thanks to Aamiri's sword-work. Through the crimson mists, Elizabeth does her best to stab at Durriya with Phos' help.
Rapier Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 11 + 4 = 16
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Hasted Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 4 = 26
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Lady Seelah |
Once more for good measure!
Seelah follows Aamiri's lead and continues to lash into the empress, eager to finish this battle.
Attack #1: 1d20 + 14 + 5 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 14 + 5 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 44
Damage: 1d8 + 6 + 2 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 2 + 7 = 16

Damn 1's!
EndlessForms |
Aamiri, Elizabeth, and Seelah quickly turn Durriya into a minced pile of meat of bones.
The ratfolk, already weary of her undying rule, now control their own destiny in Round Mountain. Krella takes immediate steps to secure leadership over the rats of Round Mountain and quickly wins the support of the other survivors. The Pathfinders will forever have her gratitude for deposing Durriya, but she insists that you take their leave as quickly as possible for the sake of stability.
The Aspis have been stopped from forming what would have been a powerful alliance with the ratfolk of Round Mountain and instead the Pathfinders now find themselves allied with Krella and the new ratfolk government.
Congratulations! You have completed The Rats of Round Mountain Part II: The Pagoda of the Rat!
