GM Fuzzfoot's GD-VI Solstice Scar CORE Tier 1-2 (Inactive)

Game Master PJP

Will Save: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (8) - 1 = 7
This time, the red orc is dazed.

Since Tolinath still hasn't checked in, he will continue up the path. As he does so, the Green archer fires at him (readied attack), but he drops the arrow as the bowstring leaves his fingers.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Red, dazed, stays grappled.

The orange orc leader stomps up to Mavin, intend on cutting her down.

Falchion Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Crit Confirm?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Damage: 4d4 + 8 ⇒ (3, 2, 3, 3) + 8 = 19 Ouch!

Mavin almost falls from a single blow, but she manages to hold on.

Round 2: (Bold may act)
Mavin (grapple, 19 dmg), Tere, Gaia, Thran, Atticus (no climb), Tolinath
Orc/Orange
Archers: Red (1 dmg, grappled, dazed), green, blue

Thran continues to climb, but looking down decides not to push his fate and carefully climbs up a bit and ends up behind Mavin

Climb: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 2 = 13

He then concentrates his arcane powers on the orc leader hoping to daze him for a few seconds giving us the time to regroup

Casting daze on orange, Dc 13 will save..now let's hope he isn't above 4 HD..and will fail his will save

I just remember we have a boosted healing aid token from Chaosorbit..how do we use that? Is it an action..or can we just say we use it and we get 1d6+2d6 healing for Mavin now?

I'm assuming that red can't take an AoO since it's dazed; if that's not the case, move Tere back 5' to the left and resolve the attack against red instead of orange. Note, btw, that using the token will heal us all.

Tere drops from the wall and closes with the orcs, drawing his sword and aiming a quick slash at the orc leader.

Cutting the Orange: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
Damage, if that hits: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

The wording says "Once per encounter, any character at a table can use an Aid Token to assist the group in one of the ways described below." It doesn't say what if any type of action it is. But I think it doesn't count as an action, so I suggest Mavin roll the 3d6 healing!

Realizing running around the path will take to long, Atticus tries yet again to make the climb.

Climb 1: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20
Climb 2: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

A 19 and 20 that outta do it.

Pride hurting from the failed attempts, Atticus digs deep and rushes up the hill!

Double move

I am so sorry for the no show. Taking athletics as well.

Tolinath makes a B-line draught up the cliff towards archer with the green hat.
Climb, Str, ACP, Athletic, fast climb: 1d20 + 3 - 3 + 2 - 5 ⇒ (20) + 3 - 3 + 2 - 5 = 17
Climb, Str, ACP, Athletic, fast climb: 1d20 + 3 - 3 + 2 - 5 ⇒ (5) + 3 - 3 + 2 - 5 = 2
Stopping short of his intended Target.

Double Move that fails :(

-Posted with Wayfinder

Mavin cries out in agony as the orc's falchion cuts deep across her torso, releasing the archer in her shock. Her pain swiftly converts into vicious rage, however, and she unslings her halberd from the strap on her back and swings it at the orcs with all the fury of a northern winter. "I WILL NOT DIE IN MY HOMELAND AT THE HANDS OF ORCS!"

Free actions: 1) drop the grapple, 2) rage, 3) activate Mavin's Martial Tradition (Northern Fury) convention boon, granting her the Cleave feat for 3 rounds (since this is an adventure associated with the Realms of the Mammoth Lords and the Holds of Belkzen, I believe I can use the boon once without checking a box?), and 4) declare use of Pathfinder Excellence (Combat) boon from her Siege of Serpents Chronicle sheet, checking a box to roll her Cleave attack twice and take the better result (I assume it doesn't apply to the second Cleave attack too?).
Move action: Draw masterwork halberd.
Standard action: Cleave for days.

I know no one else is hurt, but if everyone's cool with Mavin cashing in the aid token that'd be most helpful.
Aid Token – Burst of Healing: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 3) = 8
Mavin's Current Health (raging for +4 to HP): 14/24
Rage Used: 1/6

★★★OVERSEER ANNOUNCEMENT★★★

Several groups of Pathfinders break through the enemy lines and surround their leaders. A shout of encouragement rolls through the caravan, but a vastly different sound of worry begins rumbling among the attacking tribe.

@Table GMs: Encounter G is still available, but there are no further benefits for it.

★★★OVERSEER ANNOUNCEMENT★★★

@Table GMs: Encounter G is still available, but there are no further benefits for it.

So GM, since we don't get any benefit for finishing this encounter at this point and I spent some limited use boons on my last action which posted 16 minutes before the Overseer GM announcement, any chance I can take that action back and hold onto those boons for another day?

There is still benefits for completing THIS encounter, there is just no need for people to get more successes on the Leaders Encounter (G). Still need lot more successes on this one we are on.

Ah, I didn't know that! In that case never mind.

Gaia continues to keep climbing. She slips at first but manages to find her footing.

Climb: 1d20 ⇒ 3
Climb: 1d20 ⇒ 20
Double Move

Sorry, busy night! Yes, this encounter counts - the leader one no longer does.
@Tolinath, you made the first check, and since you used -5 for accelerated, you do get half way up. But since you failed the second one so bad, you fall back down, and actually take 1d6 dmg unless you have a way to mitigate it. However, I think we can say that the aid token was used after that and call it a wash.

Mavin cuts red in two, and fatally wounds the orc, but that darn orc ferocity kicks in and he just won't die. Well, that is until Tere finishes the job! @Thran - I didn't bother with the daze due to the imminent death of your target, and the other two are out of range.

Blue turns and shoots at Tere. Blue and green should not be called archers. They both suck.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Green continues to shoot at Tolinath.
Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Round 3: (Bold may act)
Mavin (10 dmg, rage), Tere, Gaia, Thran, Atticus, Tolinath
Archers: green, blue

Passing on aid token - NICE use of it!

Blade still dripping with the orc leader's blood, Tere closes silently with the blue putative archer and cuts it deeply with a swift slash.

Slash: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Ah-ah?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19

Base damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Crit damage, if applicable: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Blood still dripping from both the blade of her halberd and her own injury, Mavin sprints toward the near archer, taking a flying leap to bring down the point of her weapon into his back.

Full round action to charge the archer.

Attack (mwk halberd, rage, Power Attack, charge): 1d20 + 5 + 2 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 5 + 2 - 1 + 2 = 23
Damage (mwk halberd, rage, Power Attack): 1d10 + 7 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 7 + 3 = 20

HP (+4 for rage): 14/24
Rounds of rage used: 2/6

He didn't get an action..so that's fine by me ;)

Thran makes it to the top and looks around to see if there are any enemies left standing

Casting daze on any of the archers if they survived the damage they just took, dc 13 will save

Climb check: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 4 + 2 = 20 not sure I need a climb check for that last square, but just to be save

Finally at the top Atticus surveys the battlefield, seeing Mavin's halberd raining blood on the hilltop, he rushes to Tere's aid, who also seems to have things well in hand, as he goes he draws his longsword.

Double move and draw weapon

Yah, they didn't survive that.

Mavin and Tere each put an archer down in the blink of an eye as Thran and Atticus jump into the clear path, ready to rumble.

I will report this a success. You now can either protect the caravan or rush into the vanguard to help there. You can also track down the leaders if you like, but it won't count for the overall goals.

It's a couple minutes to cleanup and get to the next encounter, if you want to do any healing or rebuffs during that time.

I'm fine with any of them..all though going after the leaders seems to be ..not the best choice. So just picking one unless someone has a different idea

"An army fights on it's stomach, let's go make sure the caravan is secure."

"Let's get back to the caravan. If the orc leaders are down, the rest of them will want to draw blood before they run."

-Posted with Wayfinder

"You don't look so great, let me take care of that"

Thran takes out a wand and uses it to heal Mavin

Clw: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Clw: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Clw: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

he then casts detect magic and goes over the orc bodies, searching them hoping to find anything of use.

How long is Mavin fatigued? More than a minute or two?

The most vulnerable part of the caravan travels near the base of a cliff where the sounds of ever-louder chanting echo from a shadowy cave.

These are 3 separate checks on the various enemies here.

You come up on the back of the caravan, and there are barrels floating up the path from the front of the caravan.

Your mission here is to prevent 5 or more barrels from making it to the cave. You succeed if you rescue 5 or more barrels.

Round 1: (Bold may act)
Tere, Tolinath
Dotted: Barrels floating in air (Invisible)
Orc Raiders: Purple, Orange
Orc Mystic: Red
Human Brigand: Green
Thran, Mavin, Gaia, Atticus

@GM: Mavin is only fatigued for 1-2 minutes, if my memory serves, so she should be fine for the next encounter.
@Thran: Thanks for the heals! I'll take the charges off Mavin's wand.
Knowledge (local): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Knowledge (local): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Knowledge (local): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
@GM: Can I get AC for all of them and fighting abilities for the raiders? Naturally Mavin will shout out the information to the group. Also where are we on the map?

Mavin catches her breath from the vicious orc attack, panting as Thran heals her using a wand and clapping him on the shoulder in thanks once her wounds are closed. She stows her halberd and pulls out her glaive as she approaches the rear of the caravan, but she moves slowly as she is still reeling from the earlier attack.

Rage used: 2/6 rounds

Not sure how we'd know to rescue invisible floating barrels..but since we do...do we know how to rescue them? Touching them? Moving them to a save place..or just kill everything in sight that isn't us so they can't be stolen?

Knowledge (Local) 1: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Knowledge (Local) 2: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

Beating by 10 for the brigands, I'll take AC and HD.

Knowledge (Local) 3: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

Tere wipes his blade clean on the last orc's cloak and sheathes it before following the others back to the caravan. There, he stops for just a second, shaking his head, at the strange sight before heading to the front of the caravan and looking for signs of what's carrying the barrels.

Perception check: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

How smoothly do the barrels seem to be moving? Are they bouncing up and down a little, as if being carried by a concealed creature, or are the floating at the same level?

"Oi no' the good stuffs!!!" Tolinath runs up to the closest barrel or as close as he can get "Tha can be cruel. Never get between a man an' his ale!!!"

Double move straight line towards the closest barrel

-Posted with Wayfinder

The barrels look like they are being carried by invisible individuals, because they bounce as they go. They are pretty large, meaning the carriers are likely very strong.

The raiders are basic orcs - AC 13, HP 6, but they have orc ferocity, so 18 pts before they fall. They have scimitars rather than the normal falchions.

The brigand is a level 2 human warrior, AC 13.

The barrels go barreling up the hill. Two more raiders appear at the top of the path (bottom of the map).

Round 1: (Bold may act)
Tere, Tolinath
Dotted: Barrels floating in air (Invisible)

Tolinath goes running up the path drawing his Dwarven Waraxe yelling out in an attempt to intimidate the barrel carriers.
"Drop it!! Or I'll be separating ur heads from ur bodies!!!!"

Intimidate: 1d20 - 3 ⇒ (3) - 3 = 0

Double move, Draw Weapon. You would think the uglier you are the more intimidating you would be.

Nevermind on the Intimidate. I forgot Demoralizing is a standard action.

Thran scrambles up the hill

Assuming a climb check is needed: 1d20 + 4 + 2 - 5 ⇒ (14) + 4 + 2 - 5 = 15 fast climbing

and tries to slow down the group waiting for him at by casting a spell on one of them

Casting daze on the green one, DC 13 will save

As they arrive Atticus spots the floating barrels and just shakes his head before running up the path, blade at the ready.

Double move

Will Save: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (5) - 1 = 4

Yellow is dazed! (nice move)

Round 1: (Bold may act)
Thran, Mavin, Gaia, Atticus

Round 2: (Bold may act)
Tere, Tolinath
Dotted: Barrels floating in air (Invisible) Bleu, Yellow (dazed)
Orc Raiders: Purple, Orange
Orc Mystic: Red
Human Brigand: Green

Just to clarify something..I aimed for Green (the human brigand)..not for Yellow. If it's invisible I can't see it to target it..and it's out of range of my spell :(

Sorry - thanks for clarifying that!

Human Brigand: Green (dazed)

Letting Mavin and Gaia act before I do.

Gaia steps up to the edge and fires at the orc mystic with an arrow. Her foot slips on a rock and the arrow goes flying harmlessly past his head.

Shortbow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Mavin sprints past the caravans towards the visible enemies.

Double move.

Tere trots after the floating barrels, but doesn't quite reach them.

The green orc is dazed, but the barrels keep moving up the path. More raiders come from the east.

“Get the water!” shouts the red orc, as he begins to cast a spell.

Everyone make a DC 12 Will Save

“Steal all of their food!” shouts another orc.

Round 2: (Bold may act)
Thran (need Will Save, DC 12), Mavin (need Will Save, DC 12), Gaia (need Will Save, DC 12), Atticus (need Will Save, DC 12)

Round 3: (Bold may act)
Tere (need Will Save, DC 12), Tolinath (need Will Save, DC 12)
Dotted: Barrels floating in air (Invisible) Blue, Yellow
Orc Raiders: Purple, Orange, Pink, Yellow
Orc Mystic: Red (casts spell)
Human Brigand: Green (dazed)

DC 12 Will save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11

Looking at the effect for a failed save, I think Tere should get his +2 racial bonus vs. enchantment spells and effects, which would be enough for him to make the save. GM F, your take?

DC12 Will Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Atticus succumbs to the spells effects as he continues his pursuit, making sure to stay out of the dwarf's way.

Double move

This spell is an enchantment, so yes, Tere makes his save.

Will save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Thran is deeply effected by the hurtful words the mean orc said to him.

"Nooooooo, not the food!"

Thran responds by casting a large square of grease underneath the retreating food and the human

Casting grease, 10 foot square on the floor. Everyone in the area needs to make a DC 14 reflex save or fall prone (currently the human and the 2 barrels). It's there for the next 2 minutes and people moving through it can only do so at half speed and need to make an acrobatics check DC 10 or don't move (and if they fail by 5 or more they fall as well) and need to make a new reflex save or fall. If they don't move nothing happens to them

Thran then moves to stand between the newly advancing orcs as he draws his falchion

"You shall not pass!"

He then looks over his shoulder and gulps

"..uhmmm..guys....back me up here? If one of you can hold this bottleneck I can cover the path and we hopefully slow them down"

It's going to take all my lvl 1 spells..and another 2 rounds..but I think I can grease the entire length of the pass..one to the left and one to the right of the current one...might slow them down enough to buy us some time

Unaffected by the spell, Tere approaches the spellcaster and hurls a javelin at it. The missile sails past its target, though.

Stick the mystic: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Green Reflex Save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
Barrel 1 Reflex: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (7) + 0 = 7
Barrel 2 Reflex: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (20) + 0 = 20

Tere fails to stick the mystic, but the grease does at least make one of the invisible raiders fall.

Round 2: (Bold may act)
Thran (-1 Att and Fear Save), Mavin (need Will Save, DC 12), Gaia (need Will Save, DC 12), Atticus (-1 Att and Fear Save)

Round 3: (Bold may act)
Tere, Tolinath (need Will Save, DC 12)
Dotted: Barrels floating in air (Invisible) Blue (prone), Yellow
Orc Raiders: Purple, Orange, Pink, Yellow
Orc Mystic: Red (casts spell)
Human Brigand: Green (dazed)

Feeling the Effects of some spell starting to wash over him Tolinath flys into a rage Getting Wild eyed shouting in

Will Save: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 2 = 15

Rushing the Human Brigand in a Charge. Thank you Atticus

Large Cold Iron Dwarven Waraxe: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 5 + 2 = 8
Aw Come on using my bag/shirt reroll
Large Cold Iron Dwarven Waraxe, Charge, GM Star: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 5 + 2 + 1 = 25
Cold Iron Slashing: 2d8 + 7 ⇒ (5, 5) + 7 = 17
Thats better... I Hope

Rage 1/7 rounds, -2AC

Will +2 vs enchantments: 1d20 + 0 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 0 + 2 = 17

Gia shakes off the spell, and fires another arrow at the mystic. Then she slides down the hill toward the battle.

Shortbow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Will save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10 +2 vs. enchantment

Mavin curses under her breath as she rounds the corner, pressing her approach.

Double move.

I think Gaia (and perhaps others) has misinterpreted the map. The caravan is down hill from the raiders. So you have to climb up and then fire (which is fine - DC 10 climb)

Climb: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17

Tolinath charges the human brigand, removing his legs from his body.

Inviso-yellow tries to escape.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14

The blue one stands up, and tries to get through the grease.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19

Purple and orange try to get down the cliff quickly.
Climb: 1d20 + 1 - 5 ⇒ (19) + 1 - 5 = 15
Climb: 1d20 + 1 - 5 ⇒ (2) + 1 - 5 = -2

The purple one makes it and heads for the caravan. The orange one splats on his face.
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Pink climbs down as yellow runs around.
Climb: 1d20 + 1 - 5 ⇒ (10) + 1 - 5 = 6
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Blue and lt blue also come into the picture.

The orc mystic points at Tolinath, and says "Kill your friend."

Tolinath needs to make a DC 12 Will check vs enchantment/compulsion.

Round 2: (Bold may act)
Thran (-1 Att and Fear Save), Mavin, Gaia, Atticus (-1 Att and Fear Save)

Round 3: (Bold may act)
Tere, Tolinath (pending will save)
Dotted: Barrels floating in air (Invisible) Blue (prone), Yellow
Orc Raiders: Purple, Orange (6 dmg, staggered), Pink (5 dmg), Yellow, Blue, Lt Blue
Orc Mystic: Red (5 dmg)
