GM Fuzzfoot's #7 Among the Living (Standard) Tier 1-7 (Inactive)

Game Master PJP

Silass will climb to his feet and attempt to move forwards again.

Silass - you need to make a reflex save.

Pick Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1
Kaleena makes a critical shot, but the thug takes it standing. Orrin tries to finish the job, but misses as he notices his own wounds. Jacinth puts an arrow in the thugs eye, though, dropping him for good.

Will Save vs Sleep: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
Will Save vs Sleep Ill Omen: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

The man at the top of the dias drinks a potion, and then moves toward you.

The zombie continues to swing at Orrin.
Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Round 2: (Bold may act)
Kaleena, Iddo

Round 3: (Bold may act)
Khalib, Silass & Lord Korbin (prone), Orrin (large, 1 dmg), Jacinth
Red Leader, Blue Zombie


Bless active.

Orrin takes a swipe at the zombie with his enlarged dagger.

Dagger, Bless: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
Damage: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

"I'm starting to hate these things!"

Iddo is visibly disappointed when his spell fails, but he is quickly reminded of his duties as a bard.

"Do not worry, Orrin! The numbers are in our favour! Our names will go down in history as the heroes who prevented these fanatics' destructive plan!"

Starting Inspire Courage.

Khalib wards Orrin against the many dangers of this place. "Allow me to ward you from all sources of evil - including our current opponent there, hopefully." Chanting in Ancient Osiriani, Khalib inscribes a rune on Orrin's back. Casting protection from evil on Orrin.

Jacinth's Round 3

Trusting in Orrin's ability to handle the zombie, Jacinth turns her attention to the advancing leader. "Iddo is right! There are more of us than there are of him and his zombies!" she cries as she takes aim and fires a shot.

Attack vs. Red Leader (Shortbow; Bless, Freebooter's Bane, Inspire Courage): 1d20 + 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 17
Damage: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 1 = 6

FB applied to the Red a leader now!

Kaleena moves and focuses on the red leader and uses her challenge ability to target him...she then shoots her pistol at the foe...

Pistol+PBS+Challenge vs touch: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 1 = 14...
DMG: 1d8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 + 1 = 9

Orrin slices the zombie significantly, yet it still stands.

Both Jacinth and Kaleena's shots miss the man coming down to do battle.

Round 2: (Bold may act)
Kaleena, Iddo

Round 3: (Bold may act)
Khalib, Silass & Lord Korbin, Orrin (large, 1 dmg, prot from evil), Jacinth
Red Leader, Blue Zombie (10 dmg)


Freebooter's Bane on red.
Bless active.

Silass surges to his feet and rushes forward into the fray!

Move action to stand, move action to move the few feet to close the distance

reflex save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15

The zombie tries to continues to attack Orrin, but the protection from evil spell prevents the monster from touching him.

Meanwhile Red takes advantage of Silass' sudden appearance.

Red vs Sirass: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Crit confirm?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10 Whew! Dodged x4 dmg there!
Damage: 1d6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 2 = 4

It can still attack me, unless it was summoned. Otherwise, I just get a +2 AC against it.

Is everyone up again? :)

Yep - sorry, I missed the word summoned. Strange thing is, the other half of my post is missing, in which he attacked Silass instead (and missed), and I put Party Up! So... party up!

Round 3: (Bold may act)
Kaleena, Iddo

Round 4: (Bold may act)
Khalib, Silass (4 dmg) & Lord Korbin, Orrin (large, 1 dmg, prot from evil), Jacinth
Red Leader, Blue Zombie (10 dmg)


Freebooter's Bane on red.
Bless active.

Iddo moves up and attempts to fire an arrow past Silass at the leader.

"Alright now, please stay there and allow me to drive this arrow through your heart!"

Shortbow + PBS + Bless + Inspire + FreeBane - Into Melee: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3, Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

"Oh goodness! Mr. Silass, watch out!"

Pistol+PBS+Challenge vs touch: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 6 + 1 = 23...
DMG: 1d8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 1 = 6

Kaleena continues to target the red leader and shoots again...

"That's right, hold still, you!" Orrin continues his rampage with another swipe zombie-side.

Dagger, Bless, Inspire: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
Damage: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Suddenly, an impact rocks across Silass as an arrow rebounds off the back of his scaled head. He whirls about, bringing his pick flying over his shoulder, only for it to embed itself into the cultist next to him, sticking firmly.

"Good shot Iddo!"interjects Korbin "I find such practises greatly help me relax as well!"

Pick: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 261d6 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

Jacinth's Round 4

Aiming to get off the slippery part of the floor, Jacinth begins to weeble and wobble her way towards the altar...

Acrobatics (Moving Half-Speed) (DC 10): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15

And manages to slip between Iddo and Kaleena before stopping and firing off another shot at the cult leader.

Attack vs. Red (Shortbow; Bless, Freebooter's Bane, Inspire Courage): 1d20 + 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 26
Damage: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 1 = 3

Kaleena blasts a hole in the leader as Iddo puts an arrow in Silass' rear end. Silass ignores it as he swings his pick into the chest of leader, as Orrin cuts the zombie in half. Jacinth follows that up with an arrow to the shoulder.

The onslaught kills the man, who foams at the mouth as he drops dead.

"Good job, everyone, though I don't think we'll be getting any more answers out of him," Orrin says matter-of-factly, shrinking back to normal size. " Not that it really matters, I doubt he was going to be cooperative. Khalib, can you take a reading on this Zyphus Stone?"

"Very good job!" Jacinth breathes as she cautiously lowers her bow. "And no, I doubt he would've been very chatty. But at least we've got those letters and those prisoners as proof of what was going on here."

The elven woman quickly begins to search around the area, looking for any additional clues or evidence that speak to the cult's vile plot. "On the other hand, it never hurts to have more evidence if there's any to be found."

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

"Once again, I, Lord Korbin, Have succeeded not only in defeating the evil that threatens the world, but also in guiding the hands of other, less capable, agents of the society through a perilous mission with my unparalleled leadership and tactical skill. You are all most welcome for this great privilege, I look forward to reading your glowing commendations in the chronicles.”

As Korbin drones on, Silass follows Jacinth’s lead, and takes a look around.

perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

As you search around, and gather up survivors, you find that killing Fel Bustrani will sever his link to the Zyphus Stone’s magic and immediately killed any remaining Zyphus zombies in the building. It also unlocked the doors.

The immediate threat has ended, but the stone is still something you need to decide about. The Zyphus Stone is a terrible artifact and, as Pathfinders, immediately know that its acquisition could be both a boon and a terrible burden for the Society.

You also find a zombie corpse that appears to have once been Wuthers. In his belt pouch is a draft of the final letter he wrote to Venture-Captain Eliza Petulengro, wherein he details the final stages of the dig and the strange character of his companion—noted as “cleric of Irori” but clearly Bustani. His pouch also contains a personal journal, a shorthand record of his many adventures as a Pathfinder.

Surprisingly, more than half of the theater-goers survived the zombie onslaught by gathering together and fighting off the undead menace. Because you dealt with Quint’s roving band bent on stamping out resistance, as well as defeating Bustrani himself, the wealthy socialites and nobility of Oppara now have several dinner parties’ worth of sordid zombie stories with which to frighten and awe their friends.

"I knew I should have suspected something when they said the Society is taking me to the opera."

"I know I'm not the only one who has a say in this but I think that Stone should be destroyed if possible! The risks of further misuse outweigh any possible benefit that could be had from studying it!" Jacinth urges.

"Are you daft? Do you have any idea how much glory and prestige that artifact could bring to me. And the society. Of course.

This will be a standard PFS table scenario #7 Among the Living as part of Game Day 5 (meaning we will start Aug 27). Please post here if you would like to join the expedition.

I will be running a CORE table for this scenario afterwards, but I will be recruiting for that separately.

I'd be up for this... even more so if it gets into the higher tiers.

Unsure on character choice at present.

(Will this be for Gameday5?)

Yes, thank you! I edited the original post to point that out.

i am interested in this. please save me a spot and i will determine which character to bring as Gameday looms closer and other scenarios finish.

1. EvilMinion
2. qwerty1971
3.
4.
5.
6.
Alt.

I would like to play as well.

I'd love to play this one. Since this game could be played in subtier 1-2 (Iddo is level 1), I'll apply with Khalib, my 2nd-level Oracle.

I would love a chance to attend the opera.

OK, so far we have:

1. EvilMinion (??)
2. qwerty1971 (??)
3. Iddo Blackstone (Human Bard 1)
4. Khalib the Accursed (Human Oracle 2)
5. Silass (Nagaji Bloodrager 1)
6.
Alt.

Still have room for 1 more, but this is enough to complete a table. Looks likely to be low subtier, but let's see what the rest are bringing to the party...

I'd like to join with my alchemist 2 here, unless you'd like to stick with five people.

Ya, if this ends up in the low (1-2) tier (which it looks like it will), I'll give up my spot.
Always seems a waste doing the 1-7's in that tier.

I'd be interested in signing up for either the last spot if EM is bowing out or the alternate spot if a new player wants to play :)

Like qwerty1971 I've got a couple of different 1st levels that I could bring, so I'll be happy to help round out the group as needed.

Silass is actually level 3 sorry, the myth weaver sheets are current, but i haven't updated the profile here since his last PbP game.

Tsakuris, a lv1 1 Arcanist is ready to join your expedition, if there are room for an osiriani trained in the old secrets of his land.

1. EvilMinion (??)
2. qwerty1971 (??)
3. Iddo Blackstone (Human Bard 1)
4. Khalib the Accursed (Human Oracle 2)
5. Silass (Nagaji Bloodrager 3)
6. Orrin Ryota (Alchemist 2)
Alt. Lady Ladile (something 1)
Alt. Tsakuris (Arcanist 1)

Depending on what you (and qwerty) have to bring to the table, @EvilMinion, this is still up in the air.

If both of you have Level 4 characters, then this would put APL as 3, and with 6 characters would play up to 4-5 subtier. If qwerty is only bringing level 1 or 2 though, you would need to bring a 7 or 6 to get that tier, but that would be an odd balance.

If EM does drop out, Lady Ladile, you will be in. Tsakuris - I will add you to the waitlist in case another opens up.

Other than that, I am considering recruitment closed.

Aren't the possible subtiers 1-2,3-4, and 6-7? I don't think there's a subtier 4-5 in a 1-7 scenario.

i will bring either a lvl 1 or lvl 2 ranged character.

In case it influences any decisions, my alchemist is primarily melee.

Aye, its 1-2, 3-4, 6-7 for tiers on a 1-7.

I was looking at either a 5 or a 4.

If qwerty has a 2 ... if I bring the 4, we're 1-2, if I bring a 5, we're at 2.5 at get the choice. =P

Little too much manipulating, so I'll just let Lady Ladile hop in, in my stead. Makes things easier for all =)

I thought that was the tier structure too, but according to the season 8 PFS Guild Guide, it lists Tier 1–7 (Seasons 0–2 only, Subtiers 1–2, 4–5, and 6–7). Could be a typo, though...

Thanks for your understanding, EvilMinion (that's a funny line to say out loud!)

So, final roster for the Subtier 1-2 table is:
1. qwerty1971 (ranged 1 or 2)
2. Iddo Blackstone (Human Bard 1)
3. Khalib the Accursed (Human Oracle 2)
4. Silass (Nagaji Bloodrager 3)
5. Orrin Ryota (Alchemist 2)
6. Lady Ladile (something 1)
WL. Tsakuris (Arcanist 1)

@EM - if you want to find a group that fits you better, let me know an I will run a second table for you.

No worries! No shortage of games. =)

Thank you EM, I hope you find the higher tier games you are looking for! :)

I know it bumps the thread a little but I did want to post and say that after giving it some thought I believe I'd like to bring my Ranger (Freebooter) along for this one :)

Everyone on the final roster, please feel free to dot in the gameplay thread, and add your details to the discussion thread.
