GM Feral's Eyes of the Ten II (Inactive)

Game Master Feral

I forgot about the birdie's actions.

Mousebane Fort DC 19: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24

Adaxis hands Mousebane a tanglefoot bag to bombard (learned trick) the medusa. The bird swoops 10 feet overhead and drops it from his talons.

RTA: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 11 + 2 = 18
tanglefoot bag rounds: 2d4 ⇒ (1, 3) = 4

Reflex DC 15 or entangled by bird doo-doo

I shall delay to see if Faldoc shoots the lady down... cause I don't really want to mess with a stone cold killer

1d20 ⇒ 14

As Adaxis hurls the stone discs, Mousebane soars over the medusa and drops a bag of tarry goodness. The bag hits and explodes over the medusa, but she easily avoids getting entangled by the poo.

Technically, Karu had his eyes closed while he practiced, but he would have opened them as he heard Atum becoming stonified.

Atum's voice cuts off mid-sentence as Karu opens his eyes and sees the poor man is now a statue.

He turns to look at the medusa and scowls.

Fortitude @ DC 19 aka Please Not a 1: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (12) + 22 = 34

Karu looks her dead in the eyes. "You know not what you have done..." he says with grim tone to his voice. "You have earned the ire of Irori and I declare a holy war against you!" he yells as he fills his body with Iroran vigor and charges the woman, trying to punch her with his fist.

Smite Evil as a swift action.

Can charge through allies with Dragon Style

Unarmed - Smite/PA/Charge/Flank: 1d20 + 21 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 21 + 2 + 2 = 29
Damage: 1d10 + 2d6 + 33 ⇒ (7) + (4, 1) + 33 = 45 Non-lethal and affected by Faerie Fire for one round.

Subtract 6 to hit and 12 damage if she isn't evil.

AC is 36 (or 33) atm, I think. (35 + 3 if evil - 2 for charge)

Faldoc is Stone?: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26
Boomer?: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15

Faldoc's face turns very serious as he watches his faithful companion turn to stone. You've made a serious mistake.

The medusa is now set as my Quarry and I believe I still have Haste.

Bow: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (8) + 21 = 29 for Arrow: 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20 and Manyshot: 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18
Bow: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (18) + 21 = 39 for Arrow: 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14
Bow: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (18) + 21 = 39 for Arrow: 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18
Bow: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (8) + 16 = 24 for Arrow: 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19
Bow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20 for Arrow: 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14

+4 to hit and damage if the medusa is considered an evil outsider or human.

@Karu: Are you flying? The medusa is twenty-five feet in the air.

Edit: Nevermind

Zandu delays, watching his companions turning into over-sized garden gnome.

Faldoc fires a volley of arrows at the woman. All, but the last arrow strikes the flying woman.

As the final two arrows strike the medusa, she cries out in pain and grief, then plummets to the ground, dead.

Out of Combat

Searching the medusa, you find she carried a set of bracers of armor +4 and a +1 shocking burst longbow.

Oh, I stopped reading after you said "As the party looks around, Kynrac, though no one else does" because Karu didn't notice!

Ok... well then, Karu just menaces. He will still declare holy war on the medusa.

Knowing about basilisks, Karu runs over to the creature and hefts her body over his shoulder, rushing to Atum. He draws the expended Luck Blade from its sheath on his back and slices the medusa open. He begins to rub the creature's blood all over Atum.

"Don't be a statue, buddy! Karu yells as he slathers it on.

Karu slices open the medusa and begins rubbing her blood on statue-Atum, but nothing happens, other than making a bloody statue.

Karu collapses to his knees. "Nooooooo!"

After a moment, Karu hefts the statue on his back. "We must cure Atum." declares Atum as he looks for some exit to the Maze.

Zandu puts a reassuring hand on Karu's shoulder "im sure it was the way he wanted to go

Kynrac does his best to shake off the sadness of seeing a companion in that state, but suggests:

"The Lodge isn't far - we could go back and ask for a favor, for him to be turned to a living being again. How about it?"

Of course we will. We will not leave our friend to the pigeons!

Yer right. A bigger bird is needed here. I'll carry da poor boy.

Adaxis transforms into a young roc (huge sized with STR 30) and grabs his stoned companion with his talons. He starts to fly back toward the lodge with Mousebane tagging along.

The sphinxes! They have finally granted me immortality! thinks Atum to himself as his flesh truly hardens to stone this time. It is as they promised! My blood has truly calcified this time, I am fully one with the ancient greats of Osirion!

Adaxis transforms into a gargantuan bird, and grabs up Atum and Boomer, then flies south back toward the portal. As the party follows, everyone enters the portal and returns to the Woodsedge Lodge. Eliza comes out to greet you, sees Atum and Boomer, and shakes her head. "Oh dear, it appears you need some aid. I believe we have some salves that turn one back to flesh....if they can survive the transformation....."

Dc 15 Fort Saves to survive the process. Let me know how your paying for it.

Atum will pay out of pocket once he can move to reach his pocket.

Fort: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14

Uh-oh, poor Boomer. I'll pay for this failed attempt with gold I imagine.

Returning with a couple vials of salve, the party applies them to Atum and Boomer. Atum's flesh slowly turns back to its usual stony color, as he falls to his knees, gasping for air.

Applying the salve to Boomer, the animal slowly turns back to flesh, but the transformation proves to much as he slumps to the ground not moving....dead.

Atum stands back up with a far-away look in his eyes that is quite unusual for him. "I am not a religious man, but that was the closest to a spiritual awakening that I have ever come. I now have something to aspire to...."

Faldoc stands, unmoving, as his companion fails to be revived. You served well, friend. Saying something under his breath, the half-elf takes the corpse in order to give it a burial worthy of a Pathfinder companion.

Not sure how losing a companion works but if we can move on without him for now, that's fine.

Having returned Atum to his normal stoic self and buried Boomer along with a small, brief ceremony, the party reenters the Maze. Moving past the destruction wrought by the party, you travel down many a winding, leafy corridors of the Maze of the Open Road before coming to a solid oaken door mounted on what otherwise appears to be a dead end. Being neither locked, nor trapped, the party opens the door revealing an underground chamber and enters.

The first thing you notice is that is dark, very dark. (light sources?).

"ahh nice to see you again friend Atum. I was afraid we were going to have to build a statue to commemorate your noble sacrifice to the pathfinder corporation. he says as he starts to walk down to the door that leads to the darkness.

shaking his head Zandu opens up his wayfinder and mumbles the magic words.

"all that glitters is not gold" he says as the wayfinder flickers a dim light that seems to die out in random intervals only to be re established by the veiled man shaking it furiously.

Kynrac appears relieved when he sees Atum come back in a less stony shape. "Already back to work, Atum? It's good to see you."

Seeing darkness ahead, Kynrac conjures a light spell, though he suspects this might not be enough.

"Of course, let's keep going. I am not one to rest." Atum retrieves an ioun torch and sets it spinning about his close-shaven head. Once he is able to stride boldly forward, he will do so.

Karu claps the man on the shoulder. "Welcome back brother. Tell me, were you overjoyed to be a full statue?" he asks jokingly as he boldly strides with Atum.

Darkvision

The winding tunnel opens onto a high platform overlooking an enormous chamber lit by distant torches and small clumps of phosphorescent fungi. A relatively flat floor about 20 feet below falls away into a black abyss at the center of the huge chamber, bridged by a thin natural span at the center of the room about 40 feet away.

Several torches light the bridge, illuminating a tall human warrior in red plate armor pacing nervously, sword in hand. You can just make out the forms of archers along the far ledge, and lurking shadows near the close edge suggest skulking humanoids somewhat larger than an average man. Immediately east of your high platform, about 20 feet below, is a pool of dark liquid, perhaps fed from some natural spring.

The steep, jagged ledge to the north drops into a yawning chasm that disappears into utter darkness far below. A thin bridge extends to another cliff about 30 feet to the north, where human archers in the livery of the Red Raven stand readyvwith shortbows. About 20 feet beyond the opposite side of thevbridge, deeper in the huge cavern, is a natural balcony that seems to offer a commanding view of the entire chamber.

Apparently spotted by the lights the party carries, two humanoid shapes in the fore-chamber begin moving toward you, their shapes resolving into bugbears, as the man on the bridge yells out. “State your business or be slain!”

Faldoc, Kynrac, Atum, and Karu are up!

New Map

"We are searching for a man in red bird clothes who has slain a member of our Society. If you let us pass, then we would be most gracious." Karu states as he moves closer to the bugbears and bows.

Double Move

"Indeed! Our trouble is not with you unless you protect this madman!" Atum moves up beside his companion. Also double move.

Faldoc will ready his bow for combar and then move to the east where he waits for the answer to his friend's request for passage.

I'll hold/ready my action, if violence ensues then Faldoc will return the favor by attacking the human. If the bugbears move toward me I will get AoOs due to Improved Snap Shot.

Squawk!

No darkvision, just low lowlight under polymorph effect. FYI, young template for roc is an exemption to rule for Eagle Shamans.

"The Red Raven is an instrument of justice! An enemy of the Red Raven is an enemy our ours!" The man replies.

Faldoc and Kynrac

"Looks like the hard way, Atum." Karu says as he cracks his knuckles and pops his neck.

Seeing the situation quickly deteriorating into a fight, Kynrac anticipates and casts a spell, blessing his companions with a blessing of fervor.

Readying, then casting it once Zandu and Adaxis are also in range. Kynrac will pick the +2 AC/attack/Ref.

Blessing of Fervor: Don't forget to pick one of the following bonuses each turn!
- Increase its speed by 30 feet.
- Stand up as a swift action without provoking an attack of opportunity.
- Make one extra attack as part of a full attack action, using its highest base attack bonus.
- Gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls and a +2 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves.
- Cast a single spell of 2nd level or lower as if it were an enlarged, extended, silent, or still spell.
It doesn't stack with haste! Pick a different or better bonus than those provided with haste.

Faldoc shrugs and fires an arrow at the man! Using the +2 from BoF.

Bow: 1d20 + 22 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 22 + 4 = 32 for Damage: 1d8 + 13 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 13 + 4 = 21

@BoF: Taking the +2 option.

Kyrac casts a spell, granting the party a fervent blessing!

Faldoc fires an arrow at the man on the bridge, hitting him!

Attack vs Karu: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29
Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Attack vs Atum: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21

The two bugbears move in to engage Atum and Karu, one swinging a morningstar, while the other hurls a javelin!

Zandu!

"well that escalated quickly" Zandu says as he leaps into action moving across the cavern floor to provide Karu a better tactical position while lashing out with his scimitar.

taking the additional move speed from BOF

power attack: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (20) + 22 = 42 PA damage: 1d6 + 36 ⇒ (6) + 36 = 42
power attack crit?: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (17) + 22 = 39 PA damage: 1d6 + 36 - 12 ⇒ (1) + 36 - 12 = 25

Zandu rushes down into the cave, and attacks the bugbear near Karu. He slashes deeply into the goblinoid's side nearly bringing it down!

The man on the bridge moves forward a little and appears to ready himself!

Attack vs Zandu: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17
Damage: 2d6 + 1d6 ⇒ (4, 1) + (2) = 7

The eastern archer moves closer and fires a flaming arrow at Zandu!

Damage: 1d6 + 1d6 ⇒ (5) + (6) = 11

Attack vs Faldoc: 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 6 - 2 = 17
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

The western archer takes a step and fires three arrows at Faldoc!

From the shadows in the back of the cave, a woman steps forward. Pointing at the party, a small red bead floats through the air, then detonates loudly, bathing Zandu, Faldoc, and Kynrac in flames!

Fireball DC 17: 10d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 6, 4, 2, 1, 3, 5, 6, 4) = 40

reflex: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (7) + 20 = 27no damage taken due to evasion

dodging the flaming arrow just in time to see a small explosive bead fly past him and detonate giving him just enough time to step a few paces back out of the range of the fire ball before stepping back into position.

"seem like your friend over on the bridge doesn't trust you to do the job" he says to the bug bear unsure if it can understand him.

Ref: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (3) + 17 = 20

Kynrac easily avoids the full blast, only feeling the lesser burns of the fiery residue instead. He then joins both of his charred hands in a prayer to Irori.

"Great Irory, give us the inner strength to ignore pain. Allow us to trenscend our limits and overcome our foes!"

Casting prayer: You and each of your allies gain a +1 luck bonus on attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saves, and skill checks, while each of your foes takes a –1 penalty on such rolls.

Atum laughs at the attempts to break through his armor as his skin grows hard and he grows to a towering height, swinging his large polearm down on the blue-clad man nearby.

Going to sunder his weapon, then his armor. Extra damage is applied to him.

+3 impact adamantine bec de corbin power attack sunder: 1d20 + 22 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 22 + 1 = 41

Reflex: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (18) + 19 = 37

Faldoc evades the spell's effect! He then takes a step to the northeast and fires a volley of arrows at the man!

Bow: 1d20 + 21 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 21 + 4 = 28 for Arrow: 1d8 + 15 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 15 + 4 = 27 and Manyshot: 1d8 + 15 ⇒ (8) + 15 = 23

Bow: 1d20 + 11 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 11 + 4 = 23 for Arrow: 1d8 + 15 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 15 + 4 = 20

Could someone moves me a square to the NE please?

I moved you Faldoc. BoF for +2 for both.

The huge bird swoops toward the archer attempting to ensnare a bugbear with his talons. Mousebane is commanded through a series of chirps to flank with Atum and attack another bugbear.

Roc talon: 1d20 + 15 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 15 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 39

@Atum: You don't critical sunder attempts. >.>

Karu looks at the bugbear to his left and sees that Zandu has it handled, so he decides to move on to address the man with the red scarf. "I assume that you are the man who has brought these creatures to stop us from catching the Red Raven." he states as he moves to meet this man in combat.

"Well, my name is Karu and if you beat me, then you can be on your way, otherwise, we shall exact the information we must know from you." he says with a bow before assuming his patented Black Dragon Style stance and lashing out with a kick.

Unarmed - Power Attack/BOF: 1d20 + 18 - 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 18 - 3 + 2 = 19
Damage: 1d10 + 2d6 + 21 ⇒ (9) + (4, 4) + 21 = 38 Non-lethal and affected by Faerie Fire for one round.

My rolls have not been favorable this game...

Kyrac utters a prayer for his companions.

Atum unleashes a combination of hacks and slashes, breaking the bugbear's weapon, then breaking the bugbear!

Faldoc then fires a volley of arrows, only hitting with two!

The Roc spreads his massive wings and swoops out into the cavern, gliding toward the western archer. Roc/Adaxis then rends the archers flesh with his claws, grabbing the man and begins to disembowel him with his beak!

AoO vs Karu: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 21
Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Karu darts away from the bugbear, ducking under a hasty swing, and moves up to attack the man on the bridge. He punches at the man, but misses!

Attack vs Zandu: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (12) + 14 = 26
Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

Iterative: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

@Atum: You don't critical sunder attempts. >.>

Oh that's right. We just had that conversation in Blakros. See, I always forget!

"You can do it, Xandu!" Karu yells in encouragement to the masked man. "Though, try not to enjoy it..."
