GM SpiderBeard's Wrath of the Righteous (Inactive)

Game Master Barvo Delancy

Dejik calls on Iomedae to shield Ayesha.

Shield of Faith, +2 deflection bonus for 4 minutes.

Ayesha uses another bit of her arcane power to enhance her weapon, then bolts up the stairs after Nilus.

Arcane Point to enhance her black blade with the Keen special ability.

Ronan walks up to Jinxx and touches him lightly

Rejuvenate Eidolon, Lesser: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 !@%&$%# DICE ROLLER

Jinxxs gets ready to bound up the stairs.

The group mass themselves and charge up to the top level with Nilus in the lead.

The minotaur is prepared for the attack, but instead of charging he raises and lets out a blast from a horn! The deep note reverberates through the building, but has no obvious effect on anyone.

Everyone is up!

Ayesha charged up the stairs with Nilus, her scimitar at the ready. As the blast from the minotaur's horn rang out, she turned a corner to see it standing there, weapon raised in one hand, and horn in the other.

She charged forth, her scimitar whistling as it cleaved the air in a swirling attack.

attack, keen: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22
damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

As Ayesha charges in the incredible reach of the minotaur comes into play and an axe the side of Ayesha herself swings out at the plucky magus. His axe crashes into Ayesha, doing unbelievable damage as the blade sinks into her collarbone. However, she manages to push through and she returns the favour as best she can; her blade sinking deep into the minotaur.

Attack of Opportunity: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29 Damage: 3d6 + 8 ⇒ (6, 6, 4) + 8 = 24

Ayesha takes 24 damage! Everyone else still has actions.

Ayesha's collarbone begins to knit back together as the damage transfers to Dejik. Ayesha heals 5 points of damage.

Feeling her friend's pain, Dejik snaps a wand from her wrist sheath and moves upstairs to help Ayesha. Swift action to activate spring loaded wrist sheath, draw wand of cure moderate wounds.

Cure Moderate wounds: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (2, 8) + 3 = 13

Ayesha's shoulder continues to heal, bringing her out of danger for the moment.

Be careful, everyone--this thing hits hard!

Nilus moves up the stairs following Ayesha Probably provokes and shouts The Rose guides my hand! Smite Evil before he attacks the Minotaur Radiance, Smite: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14

Probably misses on that horrendous roll.

AC is 24 versus the Minotaur...provided it is evil of course.

Okay, I wasn't planning on almost dying from that charge! Ouch

Big guys have reach. The more you know. *rainbow*. Also, he's used his AoO for this round and has not demonstrated combat reflexes.

Although Nilus' god is with him, his footing is not as his glaive strike comes close to harming the minotaur, but not close enough.

Sarkast follows Dejik up the stairs and winces at Ayesha's wound. As he assesses the room, he realizes the cramped quarters are going to work against him. He carefully steps in front of Dejik to get close enough to the minotaur to attack.

Move action to top of stairs, second move at half speed past Dejik. Rolling acrobatics just in case he *does* has combat reflexes. ;-)
Acrobatics vs CMD: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29

"Iomedae!" cries Irabeth as she charges up the stairs and moves in to get within range of the minotaur. She keeps her shield high as she moves.

Oh, I expected to take an AoO, I just hadn't expected him to roll so well

Jinxx and Ronan both bound up the stairs, with Ronan taking up a position in the back and Jinxx racing through the minotaur's legs to stand beside Irabeth. Completely surrounded, the minotaur doesn't seem to mind as it sees Nilus call down a smite upon it. It returns the favour, roaring out a prayer to its dark God and causing its axe to crackle with red energy! However, Nilus springs to the side, and the enormous axe smashes into the ground, nearly cutting a hole into the floor below. It then turns, and tries to finish off Ayesha with its horns, who barely avoids the attack.

Smite Good vs Nilus: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22 Damage: 3d6 + 14 ⇒ (2, 3, 5) + 14 = 24
Smite Good vs Nilus: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9 Damage: 3d6 + 14 ⇒ (6, 2, 2) + 14 = 24
Gore vs Ayesha: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18 Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 1) + 8 = 12

Everyone is up!

Ayesha's wound continues to heal, and Dejik's shoulder begins to bleed more. She whispers a short prayer to Iomedae to repair the damage. 5 points of damage transfer over the life link, swift action to lay on hands.

Lay on hands: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 Dejik heals 5 points of damage.

She steps back into the alcove to gain cover from the minotaur, and casts a spell on Sarkast's weapon. The hard corner should prevent an AoO.

Aseesi on taikaa nyt Sarkast.

attack, keen: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Ayesha smiled at Dejik as the paladin's healing magics knitted her shoulder back together. Then, sensing movement from the corner of her eye, she ducked aside as the minotaur's horns ripped through the air where she had been standing. She whipped her scimitar through the air in response, though the strike was less sure than the previous one.

Dejik, I think I love you!

Unable to get a favorable position, Sarkast swings both of his weapons, hoping to land a good blow.

Attack, +1 cold iron spear: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Attack, MW dagger: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

EDIT:
Confirm crit, +1 cold iron spear: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Nilus says Get thee hence foul creature, the moment of your doom is nigh! Radiance: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27 Damage: 1d10 + 15 ⇒ (10) + 15 = 25 +4 more if its an evil outsider

Good news, it's fiendish.

Sarkast's dagger doesn't penetrate its hide, but he manages to spring off of the minotaur's knee as it struggles to get its axe out of the floor and slams his spear into its neck. The minotaur roars in pain and turns to Sarkast only for Nilus to bring down his glaive with all of his might right into the back of the minotaur! Its bellow of pain and rage shakes the walls of the garrison itself, but yet the creature manages to remain upright.

That is until Irabeth, now in position, slams her sword into the wound Sarkast opened up in its neck. It stands bolt upright, wrenching the sword from her grasp and lets out a gurgle before collapsing face-first on the ground.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30 Damage: 1d8 + 5 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) + 5 + (1, 4) = 12
Confirm Crit: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27 Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

End of Combat

She wrenches her sword free and snarls, the noble paladin looking as bestial as ever. The hall is momentarily silent. The massive minotaur lies dead, instantly slain by the combined might of the party. This wide hall flickers with torchlight, leading up to the door that is the entry to the wardstone chamber. Two alcoves are on either side of the hall, bearing aloft helms that look to have been recently broken.

A splendid blow Lady Tirabade. Nilus says while crossing the room and entering the next. The Wardstone must be nearby..

Sarkast wipes his spear's tip off on the creature's fur, then prepares to follow Nilus while Dejik's magic remains on his weapon.

That woman in the scrying basin looked evil--maybe this will help.

Dejik draws a wand from her haversack and casts protection from evil on on Sarkast. (1 minute)

The foul woman is near, behind that door. Prepare yourselves and let's finish this!"

Ayesha hefted her scimitar and nodded to the others to signify that she was ready.

Nilus is heading into the next room right now without waiting. So if you have any last minute healing, buffs, or other spells you've got one round. As a note, Dejik's last HP totals:

Jinxx: 14 dmg
Dejik: 10 dmg (15, 5 healed from lay on hands)
Samra: 11 dmg
Ayesha: 3 dmg
Danis: 0 dmg
Nilus: 0 dmg
Irabeth: 0 dmg
Sarkast: 0 dmg
Lam: 0 dmg
Doron: 0 dmg
Ronan: 0 dmg

Samra is safe downstairs. Dejik will use her swift action this round to burn another lay on hands. She currently has a wand of cure moderate wounds and a wand of protection from evil in her hands. She'll hand either one to Ronan to buff/heal Jinxx, whichever he wants.

Lay on hands: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

After Dejik casts the protection spell, Sarkast lines up with the door, waiting for Nilus to move in.

If we can arrange for Sarkast to have a clear path through the door, he may be able to charge once Nilus moves in.

Ronan can't make use of a cure moderate wounds wand.

Ronan grabs the wand, but holds off on using it, healing Jinxx first.

Lesser Rejuvinate Eidolon: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Irabeth then quickly throws up another healing spell for the party as everyone gets ready to charge in.

Channel Energy: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 1) = 2

Let's hope that's all the 1s out of the way. Everyone heals TWO WHOLE POINTS.

Nilus' fervour in reaching the wardstone reaches its zenith and he opens up the door.

The door flies open to reveal a dretch, and abrikandilu, and a cultist standing guard in front of a demented-looking half-elf who appears to be halfway transformed into a demon. The dretch acts the moment the door is opened, a familiar and upsetting cloud of noxious gas filling the party's room! The archers swear as their sight is obscured, and one of them begins vomiting noisily.

Fortitude saves for all! DC 13 before you can act. Failure means you are nauseated. Jinxx, Sarkast, and Dejik are up!

Fort save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19
As the cloud fills the room, Sarkast runs through, having briefly glimpsed the creatures beyond. Trusting in the protection spell to ward off the demon's claws, he aims for a cultist.

I expect I can't charge with the vision blocked, but the cultist should be flat footed.

Attack, +1 cold iron spear: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 Sneak attack: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 5) = 9

Fort save: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17

Dejik follows Irabeth's example and channels the power of their goddess, counting on the doorway to block the healing energy from the cultist Sarkast just attacked.
Channel to heal: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Looks like we did get the ones out of the way.

She puts the wand in her haversack and reaches for her bow. Remember, use the cold iron arrows I gave you against the demons, she whispers to the mongrelmen, and the white-fletched arrows in my quiver are demon-bane. Take one if you need it.

Just guessing on the color, here--the flame arrows were gold, but I don't know what color the demon bane were. Of course, Dejik can't see color anyway, so...

fort: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

Ayesha's eyes watered as the dreth's foul stench filled the air, but she was familiar with the devil stench by now. Grimly she held her scimitar aloft and prepared to charge in.

Fort: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 Nilus grimaces at the smell but prepares to charge into battle once more!

Waiting for my turn.

Jinxx lets out a weird roar and then races into the room, only to collapse woozily against the wall.

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

In the back, Jeslyn shrieks. Her voice is hoarse and barely coherent.

"I knew you'd come for the wardstone! My time is here! Deskari is with me!"

Jeslyn start chanting a spell.

Irabeth clanks noisily into the room and swings down at her demon, her sword bursting into a white light as it senses its foe. The dretch goes down in a burst of white flame, screaming.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18 Damage: 1d8 + 5 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 5 + (4, 4) = 18

The cultist, seeing Irabeth's attack, shrieks and leaps at her, slashing down with a scythe. The wound hits, drawing a cry of pain from the paladin.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25 Damage: 2d4 + 5 ⇒ (3, 4) + 5 = 12

Samra, Lam, and Doron all hold their actions and cover their mouths, waiting for the cloud to disappear and give them some sight.

Ayesha, Nilus, and Ronan are all up!

Sorry guys just finished reading all the posts, Jinxx only had 11 hit points left so from my calculations he would be banished back to his plain for a while

acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8 , apparently taking the AoO

attack, keen: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10 , and then missing rather badly
damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Ayesha called out, "Don't block the entry!" as she prepared to enter the room. All she could see was Sarkast's back, but she knew there were enemies to either side of the doorway from how the others were fighting.

Gritting her teeth, she steeled herself and ran for the doorway. She flung herself through it and to the right, trying to spin out of the way of any incoming blows. Unfortunately, her right knee hit the doorframe and she stumbled right into the demon there. She thrust her sword awkwardly in front of her, jabbing at the thing more to keep it away from her than any serious attack.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

She's summoning another demon! Stop her!

Did Sarkast's attack not hit, then? You didn't mention, but the cultist doesn't have any damage in your initiative block.

Sorry Sarkast! Will update once I'm at a computer. And Ronan, Jinxx is now mostly healed.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Nilus moves into the room, Radiance glowing brightly. Probably provokes from both enemies.

Nilus attacks the demon Radiance: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20 Radiance: 1d10 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14

Sarkast charges into the room, stabbing out hard with his spear, but it glances aside on the cultist's chain shirt.

The cultist swipes out as Ayesha moves past, but misses wildly. Nilus takes this opportunity to rush in straight at Jeslyn, attacking viciously. However, the foul demon-worshipper is quick, and sidesteps his glaive swipe.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8 Damage: 2d4 + 5 ⇒ (3, 1) + 5 = 9

Ronan is still up! And Dejik has kept pretty careful track of the hp of eveyrone in the party. With the magical healing he's received, Jinxx should only be at 1 hp damage so good to go. Just nauseated..

Nilus meant to attack the red circled demon...not the one behind the column. Sorry for my lack of communication. I figured that one wouldn't be targetable due to being behind something.

Ronan moves to the door way and casts Haste

+1 bonus on attack rolls and a +1 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves and one extra attack on a full attack

So Nilus hits the demon! Sorry about that.

Ronan needs four targets for his haste spell. I'm saying Jinxx, Nilus, Ayesha, and Sarkast to hit the front-liners unless ROnan overrules.

The abrikandilu takes a glaive in the face from Nilus and the demon becomes enraged at the sight of the beauty of Shelyn. Determined to ruin Nilus' pretty face, it leaps at him, scoring with a claw.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Sarkast, Jinxx, and Dejik are up! Jinxx has 1 round of nausea left.

Hearing Dejik's warning, Sarkast rolls past the cultist and around the room to attack the demonic elf. "Ayesha, care to join me in dispatching this foul creature?"

With Haste, Sarkast can move 30' without penalty to his acrobatics check. Moving to the north leaves Ayesha a flanking position to the south. Single attack with the spear.

Acrobatics vs Cultist CMD: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (10) + 12 = 22
Attack, +1 cold iron spear: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Samra, we have to try and stop that spell caster!

With a quick nod, Samra pulls a demon-bane arrow from Dejik's quiver, runs past the cultist and fires at Jeslyn.

Samra's attack, Point blank, Demon bane arrow, cover: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25

Samra's damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Demon bane: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 2) = 8

Dejik follows close behind Samra, screaming Die, foul traitor! She draws another magic arrow from her quiver and fires at Jeslyn.
Smite evil (+4 attack, +2 damage), demon bane arrow (+3 attack/damage, +2d6 damage), Precise shot, Cover

Dejik's attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
If she doesn't count as a demon, it's -2

Dejik's damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Demon bane: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 4) = 7
If she doesn't count as a demon, it's -2

Jinxx sits in the corner sounding like he is hacking up a fir ball.

Well now that's an interrupt. The game identifies Jeslyn as a half-elf but she's exactly the kind of thing outsider bane is meant for. I assume Sarkast is attacking Jeslyn and not the cultist.

Jeslyn lets out a horrid shriek as the demon bane arrow flies through the cage in front of her and slams into her. Dejik's own bow bursts with holy light as she calls down the wrath of her God upon the abomination, and the second arrow flies home as well.

Concentration: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26

The shot is true and Jeslyn shrieks as her spell is lost. Sarkast rushes in, springing through the air and leaving a blur behind him thanks to the magical haste spell. However, Jeslyn manages to barely avoid his attack.

"Areelu will come for you! You will never touch the wardstone shard!"

Shrieking, Jeslyn steps back and casts a spell on Sarkast. "Deskari curse you!"

The cultist sees Jeslyn in trouble but finds herself surrounded. Her scythe descends down for Nilus, opening up a vile wound.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24 Damage: 2d4 + 5 ⇒ (1, 3) + 5 = 9

With Irabeth's demon bane sword glowing mightily, she moves around the cultist and swings for the Abrikdanilu! However, the rat-faced demon throws some dirt in her eyes and her attack is fouled.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12 Damage: 1d8 + 5 + 2d6 ⇒ (1) + 5 + (4, 6) = 16

Nilus takes 9 damage. Sarkast must make a DC 19 will save or be cursed with -6 Dex and a -4 to attack, saves, and ability checks, and a 50% of inaction each turn.

Ayesha, Nilus, and Ronan are up!

Ayesha moved swiftly to cut off the woman's retreat, and press the attack. Before she closed, however, she cast one of her few remaining spells to enhance her striking abilities. Swiftly, she spun past the mongrelman near the wall, and used her whirling shawls as cover.

"Foul creature! Cease this foolishness or we will kill you where you stand! The shard will not be used by demons to invade Golarion. We will not allow it!"

Casting True Strike, then closing, passing through O to avoid AoOs
