GM Sloth's "The God's Market Gamble" PFS (Inactive)

Game Master ThreeEyedSloth

Tiasar looks between the two, the chuckles at something "Very well"

Daimonji, arms crossed, glances at the rest of the group, then back to Torch. He nods, "You can count on me. We won't let 'em get away with this."

He slams his fist into his open palm, eloquently illustrating his point.

You guys are awesome. I just wanted to make sure you all knew that. :D

"Where do we start Torch?"

Hurray progress!

Located on the folded letter are directions to the tavern where Cayden's Keg will be picked up.

As he sees you out, Torch tells you that coaches have already been paid to take you there. That should give you plenty of time to prepare and buy anything else in town that you'd like before the designated time.

I don't think I want to buy anything, but I changed my spells up, if you're interested in seeing the difference feel free to check my profile

Hrolf looks around warily one last time before climbing into the coach.

Ready to go!

Ryster climbs in behind Hrolf.

Ready

Following Ryster in, Iolande has a wicked smile on her face. "Ready."

Jake lumbers in behind Iolande.

Let's go.

Daimonji only tosses on a simple hooded cloak before squeezing into the coach. The group will still stand out, but at least he won't be an easily-recognizable, literally bright red target.

Assuming a cheap cloak is negligible enough to assume Daimonji already had, otherwise I'll shell out the 1gp for a traveler's outfit.

You're good, Daimonji. Fast forward a little bit...

When you arrive, the innkeeper is ecstatic. The money he's made from the sale of the leg is apparently enough to let him retire, according to his barrage of excitement. He is happy to help the Pathfinders load the relic into their cart, and even offers everyone free ale to celebrate.

Based on the slow moving progress of the cart, it seems the party is in for a long trek back to the Grand Lodge. The streets are bustling during the late afternoon hours, but after a mile or so, no danger presents itself... Yet.

I'm at work so I can't grab my spreadsheet with my macros. Could you all roll Perception checks please?

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Perception: 1d20 ⇒ 11

Perc1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

When they finish loading the relic, Tiasar climbs in the back with it. When he gets some quizical looks he grins "I have a surprise planned if anyone tries to sneak this away"

It's working now!

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26

"Stick to the plan Tiasar."

Jake walks in front of the cart as a guard would.

Hrolf keeps to the rear with his spear strapped to his back.

So are we preferring to just catch the theif red handed or do we want to follow him?

Daimonji remains in the cart, silent, though he's ready to spring at a moment's notice. He keeps an eye on the rooftops especially, remembering their enemy's tactics so far.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

Perception 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

Red-handed.

As the party progresses, someone yells among the bustle of pedestrians, "HEY, MOBILE BEER KEG! I WANT SOME ALE!"

The nearby crowds begin to perk up and within moments, a throng of people have swarmed around you, some waving empty beer steins in your direction.

"Oh, for Irori's sake..." Daimonji grumbles under his breath.

He turns to the tankard-waving people and draws his scarf down, allowing them to see his monstrous face. "Out of the way!"

If Hrolf decides to handle this one in the same way, I'll roll Intimidate as an Aid Another, if not, I'll just make my own roll. That do?

Ryster steps closer to the cart and begins watching the crowd for trouble. Get back, nothing here for you folks. he yells at the crowd, making sure his Infernal heritage is obvious.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Intimidate: Aid Another: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

You read my mind. =P

Hrolf stands tall and waves his arms threateningly

"Get back you lot of beggars! Take another step and I'll break your @#$$ jaw. You don't want to see me angry!"

Intimidate: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

Tiasar glances down at the crowd, then pauses. He starts searching for the person who spoke up first

Perc1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

Probably unnecessary, but hey!

Intimidate (Aid): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Hahaha, cuddly Daimonji strikes back.

Daahhh. Adorable demon-man wouldn't hurt a fly!

As the party begins to clear away the growing mobs through successful intimidation, you all realize that another obstacle has presented itself. It seems an overturned chicken cart has ended up right in the middle of the narrow street, leaving no room to go around. A farmer and a local vendor seem to be arguing in the middle of the street about whose fault it was, rather than clearing the path.

I'm going to give everyone except Jake a surprise round action real quick. I'm not particularly concerned about initiative for this part, but we'll see what happens. She's about 20 feet away and only has minor cover as she's crouched behind some boxes in the alley.

The entire affair has Iolande on alert, so she is one of the ones to spot the woman in the alleyway. The look of surprise on the woman's face is enough to make the Magus react, and she fires off a quick spell to incapacitate.

Daze; Will DC 13

Jake steps forward to the overturned cart.

Let's clear this out...

He then hears and glimpses Iolande casting some sort of magic in the direction of the alley, where he turns his attention and draws his Greatsword.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

She doesn't seem affected by the spell from Iolande.

Tiasar's reaction is much the same as Hrolf's

Ryster turns and runs toward the lady attempting to grab her.

Grapple: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Yeah, don't think ol' Ryster is doing much

Initiative Time!

Daimonji: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14
Hrolf: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (15) - 2 = 13
Iolande: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17
Jake: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Ryster: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
Tiasar: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19

Shes 20 feet away down an alley, which is 10 feet wide. Ryster was able to move up during the surprise round but not initiate a grapple yet. He is the only one adjacent, the rest of you are in/by the cart.

I do not think that my action will affect either Tiasar's or Iolande's. If so, just hold it until they go.

Round 1, AC: 16, HP: 22/22, Charge, Power Att, Furious Focus

Jake charges the woman and brings his Greatsword to bear.

Thieving, Murdering, Whench!

GS ATT: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 2 = 15
GS DAM: 2d6 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (1, 6) + 6 + 3 = 16

woah there cowboy, lets ask a question before we kill her. 16 damage holy crap

Tiasar jumps down from the cart and puts on a curious smile "Care to talk?" then casts grease at her feet

Hrolf delays for now.

I hear ya..,just staying in character.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18

She somehow manages to keep her balance despite the slick grease appearing around her feet.

I'm going to assume the 10' radius of Grease is positioned behind her, so it won't obstruct Jake or slip up Ryster.

Jake rushes forward and swings, but she ducks the large blade and is unharmed.

Yes, behind her. Luckily, as long as she remains on the same ground she has to keep making saves lol

I'll be using that surprise round action I didn't use to hop out of the cart. Otherwise, is there ungreased space left next to the lady? If not, Dai will also be delaying.

Iolande grits her teeth in frustration, and attempts the spell to Daze the woman again before she gets a change to get away.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

Right before the spell takes hold, the red-haired woman yells, "You guys are much more armed than expected! What the hell is-" Her speech is interrupted by a moment of complete daydreaming, as she seems to be lost in thought suddenly.

Tiasar nods "Well that certainly means she's an enemy. Let's see if we can get her unharmed"

Hrolf rushes forward and tries to knock the woman's legs out from underneath her.

Trip w/ Longspear vs CMD: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

"Keep an eye out, she might not be working alone."

Even with some covered provided by his own allies, Hrolf is able to jab the longspear between her feet and upend her.
