GM Endless Forms' PFS 07-28 Ageless Ambitions (Inactive)

Game Master Mike Tuholski

Oswin starts moving towards the remaining div, which turns and leaps into the air, taking flight away from the enclosing Pathfinders and landing on top of one of the buildings to the south. Withdraw so no AoO from Fendahl.

Unsure of where Braugher is, the assassin fires anyways, taking on the biggest target: Oswin!
Will provoke from Braugher.

The final swarm moves against their genocidal foe, Algor.

You guys are up!

The tiger will chase down the archer, and try to bite him.

grab grab: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (8) + 16 = 24 vs CMD

Add +2 to the above rolls if flanking with the invis Braugher counts.

Kirrah will lick her wounds from the dead furry Div.

Fendahl grows frustrated with the flying blue Div.

Hrrmm, you have no honor, like all of your kind.You only delay your defeat.

Fendahl concentrates as he calls the powers from the air around him, absorbing the elemental wind to become one.

Shapechange, elemental body II, medium air elemental

He will fly up adjacent to the blue creature.

I will need to calculate stats, not a form he normally takes.
With haste, plenty of movement (130'/rd) to make it there. How high is it?
AC=25 (includes haste, barkskin, dex, no-armor)

@Fendahl: He is flanked as we both threaten.

The man fires off an arrow as Braugher tries to headbutt the man from behind before launching into a barrage of invisible attacks while he flanks with the Lion Shaman, Fendahl's summoned feline. "You are losing your edge, assassin." he comments just before his beak tries to peck into the man's back, activating his magical prowess to increase the severity of his attacks.

AoO Gore @ Assassin's FFAC | Invisible/Haste/Heroism: 1d20 + 11 + 2 + 1 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 11 + 2 + 1 - 2 + 2 = 27

Just after attacking, Braugher steps to the side but maintains his flank with the large cat.

P.S. - The first arrow from the previous round didn't hit as Braugher has Deflect Arrows. Sorry, I forgot!

Algor loses himself in the moment as the wasps engulf him, their stingers searching for his flesh.

"Die you blahsted VERHMIN! Youh'll suffer for youhr..."

Suddenly shutting his mouth, Algor glances guiltily around to see who may have caught his outburst in the midst of the swarm, and quickly revises his words, speaking slowly and loudly as if a child were eavesdropping.

"I mean, uh, surehly these wahsps would not be such a frehnzy had it not been for Mankind's slohw advance into their nahtural habitats. I rehgret that I must continue to use fire, my hands forced by my own ignorant kihnd..."

Once again, Algor proves his mastery as an orator, somehow fitting entire orations into a mere six seconds while simultaneously weaving his shamanistic magic.

Algor moves out and casts:

Burning Hands DC17 Reflex: 5d4 ⇒ (2, 2, 2, 2, 1) = 9

Party Effects: Flag = +1 morale bonus (attack, dmg, vs fear/charm)

Oswin roars in anger as the female div makes an escape. He grunts as he takes an arrows in the back. Nearly cursing under his breath, he casts Air Walk and begins moving towards the enemy.

Buffs: Righteous Might 7/10 left; Divine Favor 8/10/

Owyn curses as he watches the div fly away. He looks back and forth between the div and the assassin, trying to pick whom to go after. Finally, he mumbles "I suppose that bow might be useful against a flying demon." before running at the assassin.
Double move towards the assassin.

Seeing that Oswin is having some difficulty to reach their enemies, Tico tris to aid his friend with more movement capacity.

Tico casts Blessing of Fervor that affects himself, Kirrah, the summoned tigger, Oswin, Owyn and Braugher. So, for those who aren't under haste spell, enjoy it.

Then, the cleric moves to more close to Fendahl and the blue div.

Blessing of Fervor: 8 rounds left.

I'm back! Internet is up and running at the new house, which is starting to look like a livable house!

Fendahl's lion ally bites the assassin but doesn't grab ahold of him! Fendahl then takes on the power of the wind itself to fly up to the devious blue div.

Braugher then easily takes down the assassin, leaving Algor to finish off the wasp swarm and the others to move in on the blue div.

It seems that with the false assassination thwarted and with mischief already managed, the div has no more interest in fighting and only makes another flying withdraw from Fendahl's windy shape.

Assuming you either let it run away or chase it down and beat it senseless, which you could easily do.

Upon thwarting the staged assassination and defeating the assassin Kitio Aspenthi, you have stymied the last of Prince Zinlo’s schemes to instigate war, expand his territory, and perhaps eventually entirely unite Thuvia by force. Even if these turn of events might have ultimately resulted in benevolent rule, the process would have sparked a civil war, ended countless lives, caused untold upheaval, and made the Aspis Consortium even richer in the process.

Once it’s clear that Prince Zinlo has not died, the people of Aspenthar remain shaken by the recent events but are able to recover. The Sun Orchid Festival concludes with a more subdued tone. Princess Ziralia begins quietly pressuring Prince Zinlo to abdicate or at least surrender all of his military aspirations to expand his territory.

By defeating Kitio, you have also neutralized the very man who led the Korholm Agenda against the Grand Lodge. This blow effectively shatters the Korholm Agenda. A few dozen lone wolves throughout the Inner Sea region might still harbor dreams of reviving the faction or doing the Society harm, but their support network is no more. Master of Swords Marcos Farabellus predicts that beyond a few exceptional operatives, mopping up the Agenda’s survivors should pose little difficulty.

And that is it for Ageless Ambitions! I apologize again for the delays and absences; I think most of you have played with me before so you know that is not usual in my games but this turned out to be a tough time for me to keep up with PbP with traveling between states and moving into a new house. But I hope you all enjoyed it nonetheless!

I will get the game reported and send out chronicles tomorrow night. Thanks again to everyone for playing!

"Hrmm. Defeating this Kitio, we seem to have stopped he who led the Korholm Agenda against the Grand Lodge. This can be only considered honorable news. With this mission concluded, Kirrah and I will visit our homelands and plains to rest and contemplate future missions or retirement. It has been an honor to serve with each of you, my brothers at arms. "

Fendahl bows deeply to each of the pathfinders assembled.
