GM_Foxy's 2nd Carrion Crown

Game Master Foxy Quickpaw

I have a bad feeling about this..

Grergof hefts his mace and shield as he smells death from the newly opened room.
Get thee behind me! he wispers to his companions.

Suddenly the darkness disappears. Three ugly oversized bat hang in the rafters of this warehouse. And number of crates and barrels containing ingredients for dyes and other materials that lie stacked to the north and south. Stinking undead with rotten flesh, long fingernails and tongues crawl out from behind those crates.

One of the ugly bats swoops down, at Grergof. The other one stares daggers.
Claw: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (10) + 15 = 251d6 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Everyone with sight into the room, DC18 fort save or lose a level.

Spugnoir chucks two holy bombs, one for each bat
Holy Bomb,PBS,Precise,Touch,Heroism: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 346d6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 1, 1, 1, 3, 3) + 6 = 18

Splash Damage 12 DC 20 Reflex
When the alchemist creates a bomb, he can choose to have it deal good divine damage. Evil creatures that take a direct hit from a holy bomb must succeed at a Fortitude save or be staggered on their next turn. Against neutral creatures, holy bombs deal half damage, and such targets are not affected by their staggering effect. Holy bombs have no effect on good-aligned creatures.

Spugnoir hits both of the 'bats' but finds, that they can take a lot more, than he can deal with a single bomb.

Fort Save: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
Fort Save: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

"Let me through! I will send that evil demon pack back to the place it belongs!" Darius shouts and presses past Spugnoir and Grergof with his potbellied figure.

"Use cold iron weapons, if you have some!" he tells while passing his companions.

Touch: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
DC20 Will Save

Will Save: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
The touched demon in front of Grergof disappears. The ghouls come and attack the front line.

"HALT!" Stam shouts at the undead closest to him, the power of his voice stopping them in their tracks.

The 2 by the door and the one direct south of him. If intelligent make a DC 21 Will save or are affected like Hold Person. Halt Undead Using a Reservoir point to increase the DC by 2

Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

One ghoul at the door freezes and the next in line to attack freezes too.

Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17
Oh well, it had to happen sometime...

Grergof staggers for a moment then draws forth his cold iron scimitar with the sunburst holy symbol on it and looks past the ghouls before him at the demons beyound.

In the name of the Dawnbringer, Begone cursed ones so I may face the real foes!

Channel Positive energy vs Ghouls (Will 20) for half. But remember they have a -4 from my Aura of Life
Channel Energy Damage: 6d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 1, 3, 5, 4) = 22

Will Save: 1d20 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (9) + 7 - 4 = 12
Will Save: 1d20 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 7 - 4 = 14

Four of the ghouls crumble to dust when hit with the holy energy. One of the frozen ones remains, but doesn't look good anymore. Not that it looked good before, but...

But the holy clearance kick brings only short relief, as the other ghouls come forth to fill the openings. One of them claws at Darius.
Claw: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 41d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

The last bat demon who dodn't act yet, cast a spell.
DC21 Will Save vs. Mass Hold Person for all please.

I got a bad feeling about this

Will Save: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (17) + 14 = 31
"Ye will keep yer dirty fingers off my pals!" Darius states and chiimes in to the channelling, as it seems highly effective against those bastards.

Holy Moly: 4d6 + 7 ⇒ (3, 6, 6, 2) + 7 = 24

All undead crumble to dust and the way is free to meet the real threat.

Will: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17

Grergof freezes.

Looks like Foxy gets a round all to himself!

The bat hanging under the roof starts some magic, while the other telepatically flings a couple of boxes at Darius and Grergof. This leaves the whole area around them cluttered with debris.
Difficult terrain

@Grergof
Box: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 304d4 ⇒ (4, 3, 3, 4) = 14

@Darius
Box: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 184d4 ⇒ (4, 4, 1, 2) = 11

"Hey pals, don't leave me hanging here!" Darius prays to Iomedae for communal protection from evil for himself and his pals.

I guess you know the drill.

Will savvvvve!: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25

Spugnoir starts moving

Will save but with a +2: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 2 = 25

Spell Craft: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (12) + 20 = 32

Stam manages to shurg the spell off with Darius' blessings. "Thank you that spell he is casting is....."

"... summon monster"

Will + Resistance + Morale: 1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 12 + 2 + 2 = 17
Seems it is not to be

"He is summoning something." Stam shouts getting himself ready. I could have counter spelled if I wasn't held

Everyone not frozen anymore might act. The additional will save is a free action. Grergof gets another save as a full round action.

Will + Resitance: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 12 + 2 = 22

Grergof finally is able to move again and he raises he shield and scimitar in preparation of rushing in.

Full round action to make his save. AC is 30 Right now against evil creatures due to Protection from Evil.

Spugnoir chucks two holy bombs at the first demon
Holy bomb,touch,pbs,ps,precise: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (3) + 17 = 206d6 + 6 ⇒ (1, 4, 5, 4, 5, 1) + 6 = 26

The demon hisses at Spugnoir, as it is hit by the holy alchemical explosives.

Stam ruins the summoning.

As all the spells failed, the two demons go full melee. The one at the ceiling swoops down and the other one charges.

Grergof hacks away at the demmon and deals it some bad wounds.

Spugnoir tosses two more holy bombs at the wounded oneI have to figure out a way to use something other than bombs
Bomb: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (19) + 17 = 366d6 + 6 ⇒ (2, 1, 2, 6, 6, 2) + 6 = 25
Bomb: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 276d6 + 6 ⇒ (1, 4, 1, 1, 3, 6) + 6 = 22

The demon staggers after the first hit and falters after the second.

Bat(+), Bat(18)
Grergof, Spugnoir,
Dariuus, Stam <--

Stam shouts more Arcane syllables throwing darts of Magical Force at the already wounded Demon Bat.

Magic Missile: 5d4 + 5 ⇒ (3, 2, 4, 4, 1) + 5 = 19

"Focus Fire" Stam says to everyone

"I got no fire. How about this?" Darius tells and throws a magical spear of purity at the demon.
Spear DC17: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 2410d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 5, 1, 5, 5, 4, 5, 4, 4) = 42

Will: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17
The bat-demon takes two more hits and suddenly is no longer interested to continue this fight. It simply vanishes.

"Flee like your fellow or you will get more of what we can dish out." Stam warns the other bat creature.

Did we ID these?

Someone did, yes.

"Always the same. I'd rather finish them, to save the rest of humanity from meeting them." Darius tells. He puffs like a grampus. "I'm too old for this s&%@!"

Why would Vampires have Demons in their storeroom? Anyone have any ideas?
Grergof sheths he sword....

So I get a new save vs. Energy Drain when? tomorrow?

I can make an extract to heal getting your life force drained

That would be most appreciated.

You know that is Restoration, not lesser Restore right?

And restoration requires diamon dust worth 100 gold, that doesn't grow on trees.

And restoration requires diamon dust worth 100 gold, that doesn't grow on trees.

Spugnoir makes an alchemeticaly grown diamond trees that grow diamonds.

Spugnoir takes 100 gp of diamond dust from his haversack and mixes it into an extract for his ally

"They are workign together to take over the world? They are summoned or enslaved? I am not sure but there is probably many reasons." Stam says looking around the room for something magical.

Gregrof drinks the potion and feels his energy come back.

Thank you, Mr Spugnoir. He bows deeply to his companion.

Now lets see what is in the room.

Grergof begins to look around to see what all is in the room.
Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27

In this storage room are materials used for the tailor's shop. Some patterns on the rolls of fabric could be called magic, but not in the sense Stam is searching for. If the adventuring group isn't set on ruining the guy by stealing and opening a shop of their own for competition, there is nothing of use to be found.

"I don't see anything magical here, no reason to ruin him Financially or those who work under him right now at least." Stam says

"Leads head upstairs?" Stam says

Going back to the large room and up the stairs you end up on the second floor. Several racks of shoes, boots, and other footwear take up most of this upstairs loft. A balcony runs around the opening overlooking the shop floor below.

There are some guards waiting with loaded crossbows.
Shot: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 311d8 ⇒ 7
Shot: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 301d8 ⇒ 4
Confim: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 281d8 ⇒ 7

The two in sight shoot stam and hit him painfully.
