GM SpiderBeard's Wrath of the Righteous (Inactive)

Game Master Barvo Delancy

Mirror Image: 1d4 ⇒ 1
Mirror Image: 1d4 ⇒ 4

Sarkast leaps into the air and his spear hammers home into the joint of the vrock's wing! Ayesha then follows up with an attack of incredible brutality, but it only knocks away a mirror image. She quickly turns, and casts a spell on Nilus. The paladin's feet leave the ground as he gains flight!

Fly: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 19

Ronan and Nilus are up!

Nilus says Thank you Mistress! and flies straight at the Vrock!

Charging if possible...

Radiance: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (17) + 14 = 31 Damage: 1d10 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23

Nilus soars into the air, swiping out at the vrock to no avail as he destroys yet another mirror image.

Ronan holds his action so as to coordinate with his eidolon.

Two of the brimoraks rush in, the first going straight for Sarkast while the other chants a spell, pointing up at Nilus! He feels Radiance begin to heat up rapidly.

v Sarkast: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31 Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 3 + (3) = 7
Crit!: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28 Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

v Nilus: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
v Nilus: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
v Nilus: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
v Nilus: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

A hail of arrows then flies in at Nilus as the four cultists move out of the eastern hallway, bearing longbows. Nilus is hit four times as the golden flying paladin proves too good a target to deny.

Nilus takes 26 damage and must make a fortitude save. Everyone except for Ayesha and Nilus is up!

Reminder: everyone in the party has fire and cold resistance 5.
Dejik moves up as her holy symbol begins to glow.
Channels to harm evil outsiders, DC 19 will save for half damage.
Channel to harm: 5d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 2, 6, 6) = 23

Will: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Will: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

The vrock withstands the worst of the blast of holy energy, but Dejik's spell brutally harms the two brimoraks!

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22

Ronan chants a spell and a spike pit forms right under 2 of the cultists.

DC 18 Reflex to avoid falling in the pit, falling damage as well as 2d6 piercing damage. If next to the pit DC16 reflex or fall in as well. Pit is 30' deep with spikes on sides and floor. DC 20 to climb out but each round in contact with the walls 1d6 damage from the spikes

Jinxx flies straight at the vrock and attacks

Bite: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (10) + 12 = 22 Bite Dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Crit Claw: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32 Bite Dmg: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Sarkast snarls as the vrock flies up out of reach, but smiles as Nilus rises up with Jinxx to fight it. He then turns to the demon next to him and stabs with his knives.

Haste, Banner
Primary attack, cold iron dagger: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 cold iron: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Secondary attack, magic dagger: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15 cold iron: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Haste attack, cold iron dagger: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16 cold iron: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

Jinxx slaps away the last mirror image and crashes into the vrock, biting down hard on its neck and raking brutally with hind claws. on the ground, Sarkast instead turns on the brimorak, attacking three times quickly. Only one of his attacks manages to land.

Ronan's pit opens up across the room, and one of the archers falls into it with a scream while the other jumps out of the way.

Finally, Irabeth and Jestak charge into the room, intent on doing some damage.

"FOR GALFREY!" cries Irabeth as her sword bursts into white flame. She clanks noisily as she charges before coming straight at the brimorak with her sword.

The barbarian woman, who Irabeth called Jestak, moves into the room and engages with a brimorak.

Up in the air, the vrock finds itself unable to get away from Jinxx and so attacks the eidolon. Ronan's magical shield on his creation keeps it mostly safe, although

The gargoyles burst through the southern door, flapping and screeching as they join the battle! Irabeth and Sarkast easily avoid the attacks.

Jinxx takes 13 damage. Nilus is up! Ayesha is on GMPC.

Nilus attacks the Vrock with Radiance, its golden light flashing

Radiance1: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 14 = 15 miss
Radiance2: 1d20 + 9 + 1d6 ⇒ (14) + 9 + (1) = 24 Legendary Surge! Damage: 1d10 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14
RadianceHaste: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (18) + 14 = 32Damage: 1d10 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19

Nilus says a prayer to his Goddess, sending healing energy through his body

LoH: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 4) = 11

Nilus balances himself in the air, swiping out wildly before orienting himself. His second attack misses, just barely, but the third strikes solidly! Black blood spills to the ground below as the vrock is knocked back.

Fly: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (8) + 15 = 23

Back on the ground, Ayesha rushes forward, slashing out at a brimorak, her attack barely missing.

Attack/Haste/Banner: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16 Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

The two brimoraks quickly step around, inhaling in synch before boiling blood spills from their mouths, shooting across the room and scalding our heroes!

Irabeth/Sarkast: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 3, 5, 5) = 15
Ayesha/Nilus: 5d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 3, 1, 3) = 15

Irabeth Reflex: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
Ayesha Reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

vs Nilus: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

The cultist who plummeted into the pit throws his bow back to the top and scrabbles out with astonishing skill, snatching up his bow. The others move to position themselves, and another volley of arrows flies into Nilus! Two penetrate the mighty paladin's armour.

The cultist who climbed to the top of the pit regains his feet.

Reflex: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

Counting 5 fire resistance: Ayesha takes 10 fire damage, Irabeth takes 2 fire damage, Nilus takes 19 damage.

Whew. Everyone but Ayesha and Nilus is up!

Ayesha bit back a scream of pain as the scalding blood washed over her. Thanks to Dejak's spell, she weathered much of the pain, but still she felt the skin on her left side burning. And her silks were likely ruined, as well. There was no non-magical means to clean all that blood out. Grimly she turned back to the brimorak, determined to take some more of its blood from it in payment.

Nilus isn't smiting the Vrock....he used both his smites earlier in the day.

Dejik channels to heal, selecting out the Vrock, the brimoracks, and two of the gargoyles. Everyone who's at full health after the channel gets +1 sacred bonus to attacks, skills, ability checks and saves for 1 minute.

Everyone heals 5 damage at the start of their turn.

Channel to heal: 5d6 + 1 ⇒ (5, 3, 4, 2, 1) + 1 = 16
Everyone heals 16; Dejik heals 26.

Sarkast feels the power of Dejik's channel flow through him and calls out, "You should lay down your arms now. You are no match for the power of the gods that flows through us!"

He deftly dives between two gargoyles, getting one of them between himself and Irabeth before plunging his dagger into it.

Acrobatics to avoid AoOs, if unsuccessful on any his AC is 31 from Mythic Mobility. Penalty for multiple enemies applied in order:
Acrobatics vs White gargoyle: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (1) + 17 = 18
Acrobatics vs Black gargoyle: 1d20 + 17 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 17 - 2 = 24
Acrobatics vs Yellow gargoyle: 1d20 + 17 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 17 - 4 = 30

Ronan chants and casts a 20 foot wall of fire on 2 of the cultists. Wild Arcana

One side of the wall, selected by you, sends forth waves of heat, dealing 2d4 points of fire damage to creatures within 10 feet and 1d4 points of fire damage to those past 10 feet but within 20 feet. The wall deals this damage when it appears, and to all creatures in the area on your turn each round. In addition, the wall deals 2d6 points of fire damage + 1 point of fire damage per caster level (maximum +20) to any creature passing through it. The wall deals double damage to undead creatures.If you evoke the wall so that it appears where creatures are, each creature takes damage as if passing through the wall.

Heat from the wall will go to the east on the map

Make sure to roll your damage on the wall Ronan, I'll get it this time.

Sarkast bounds through the air, easily doging the one attack of the gargoyles surrounding him. Once landing he reverses his grip on the dagger before hammering it between the shoulderblades of the gargoyle in front of him. It lets out a ghastly shriek, yet remains upright.

Jinxx, hovering in the air, slashes and bites at the vrock, causing brutal damage to the creature. Its blood spatters on the ground below as the chaotic battle continues in the air.

With a FOOM a wall of fire appears amidst the cultist archers, who all scream in pain, diving away from it! Sarkast feels some of the heat, but his spell from Dejik protects him.

Irabeth roars, her blade rising and falling as she attacks the brimorak.

Attack: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (20) + 19 = 39 Damage: 1d8 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18

The barbarian woman Jestak snarls at the brimorak fighting Irabeth, and her face turns red as she flies into a rage!

"TRAITOR!" shrieks the brimorak at Jestak. "YOU WILL BURN FOREVER FOR THIS!"

Despite its threats, Jestak sends the head of the brimorak flying, ignoring the sizzling, burning blood on her.

Up in the air, the vrock flies into a rage despite being near death. It leaps upon Nilus, attacking viciously. It manages to latch onto the paladin, and bites down brutally into his neck, claws raking him grievously, critically.

The gargoyles rally as they see the brutal damage inflicted on Nilus, biting and clawing at Sarkast, Irabeth, and Jestak and inflicting several wounds.

The vrock barely continues to hover, near-death.

Nilus takes 63 damage! Sarkast takes 6 damage! Jestak takes 17 damage! Irabeth takes 18 damage!

Ayesha and Nilus are up!

Nilus would have used an immediate action and a mythic point to ignore 10 points of damage using

Nilus has DR 1/EPIC and another 5 points of resistance to acid, cold, electricity, fire, and sonic for 1 minute

Nilus reverses course and stabs out with Radiance once more against the Vrock

Radiance1: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (19) + 14 = 33Radiance Threat?: 1d20 + 14 + 1d6 ⇒ (14) + 14 + (2) = 30 Legendary Surge Critical: 3d10 + 42 ⇒ (6, 4, 5) + 42 = 57
Radiance2: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17
Radiance Haste: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 21 Damage?: 1d10 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18

Nilus prays to his goddess Let me survive this day, so that I might bring more beauty into this world

I don't think I can use an immediate action and a swift action to LoH, but I'm no expert on PF's insane action economy. If I can I'll roll the LoH below

LoH: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 3) = 11

I don't think I can use an immediate action and a swift action to LoH, but I'm no expert on PF's insane action economy. If I can I'll roll the LoH below

You can't, but you do transfer 5 points to Dejik at the start of your turn. (Life Link is basically fast healing 5.)

A quick prayer to his goddess shields him from some of the damage, but it is clear Nilus is not doing well. Blood drips from his armour to his companions below as the golden-clad paladin battles the demon. The vrock snarls at him, raising its head to let out another screech, and then Nilus lunges forward, speeding through the air. Radiance pierces the vrock's chest, plunging straight through and out the other end. Nilus pulls in the vrock, meets its gaze, and then rips his glaive out before whipping it around and cracking it into the vrock's collarbone and into its heart. The demon crashes to the ground below, instantly dead.

Ayesha spins around, whipping her scimitar into the gargoyle as she fights alongside Jestak. She viciously slashes the gargoyle twice, almost severing one of its wings with one swipe.

Attack: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24 Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Haste: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32 Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Crit!: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32 Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Quickly rushing away from the wall of fire, the longbowmen all focus and fire once more at Nilus. Three of the arrows find their mark and hammer into the paladin!

Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Nilus takes 21 damage and by my calculations (including guardian's call and life link) is at one hit point! The vrock is EXTREMELY dead. Everyone but Nilus and Ayesha is up!

Nilus! Come here and let me help you. Dejik shouts to Irabeth and Jestek. Take out those cultists!

channel to heal: 5d6 + 1 ⇒ (4, 1, 5, 4, 6) + 1 = 21

Dejik had taken 15 hp this round, but that channel covers it.

Ronan rushes to were Nilus is. will wait till he flies back down and Ronan will cast Bear's Endurance on him if possible

Jinxx flies straight at one of the gargoyle (white) and pounces on it.

all attacks are good and magic, if that matters

Bite: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23 Bite Dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Bite: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30 Bite Dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Gore: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (12) + 12 = 24 Gore Dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Claw: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (6) + 12 = 18 Claw Dmg: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Claw: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32 Claw Dmg: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Claw Crit: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31 Claw Crit Dmg: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

By my count, Dejik's previous channel had Sarkast completely healed; he took 6 then Life Link healed 5, so he is currently at 1 damage. Are the Vrock spores doing anything, or is that a longer term effect?

"Bravely fought, Nilus! Demons are no match for your blade!"

Sarkast continues to fight the gargoyle, using Irabeth's presence to confuse it.

Flanking, Banner, Haste, Overflowing Grace, two-weapon fighting. If Yellow Gargoyle goes down, 5' step and continue on White Brimorak, losing flank and sneak attack.
Primary attack, cold iron dagger: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26 Damage, cold iron: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 Sneak attack: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 1, 4) = 9
Secondary attack, magic dagger: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20 Damage, cold iron: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 Sneak attack: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 3, 2) = 16
Haste attack, cold iron dagger: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14 Damage, cold iron: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 Sneak attack: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 1, 1) = 14

If any sneak attack hits, target is Disoriented (-2 attack, -4 vs Sarkast) for 1 round, plus 1 per additional hit.

The white marker that Jinxx was attacking vanished, he will attack the black marker instead, if that is ok

Actually, I deleted it because it died, but didn't get my update posted ;)

Jinxx soars down from the sky, landing on the gargoyle before pinning it and ripping out its throat. Dejik chants a quick prayer to her goddess, sending healing magic through the party once more. Nicely in position now, Sarkast repeatedly stabs the gargoyle, and it collapses dead at his feet.

Hearing Dejik's call, Irabeth and Jestak both break away from their opponents, drawing attacks of opportunity. They rush between the archers. The brimorak manages to score a minor hit on Irabeth. The two mighty women engage their respective opponents, and soon two cultists lie dead.

Gargoyle: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
Gargoyle: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
Brimorak: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24 Damage: 2d6 + 3 - 5 ⇒ (1, 6) + 3 - 5 = 5

Jestak vs Plain: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 19 Damage: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (6, 4) + 7 = 17
Irabeth vs Yellow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19 Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

The two remaining gargoyles attack Ayesha and Jinxx.

vs Ayesha:
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18 Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

vs Jinxx:
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13 Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Finally, the brimorak moves into attack Sarkast.

attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17 Damage: 2d6 + 3 - 5 ⇒ (3, 2) + 3 - 5 = 3
attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8 Damage: 2d6 + 3 - 5 ⇒ (1, 4) + 3 - 5 = 3

Ayesha, Jinxx, and Sarkast all escape unscathed!

Nilus and Ayesha are up! Irabeth takes 5 damage. Two cultists and a gargoyle are dead.

Nilus whispers a prayer of thanks for his continued survival.

LoH, I'll keep the earlier roll of 11 if that's ok

Nilus flies down to flank(Yellow) with Irabeth and he lashes out with Radiance Radiance: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (17) + 16 = 33 Damage: 1d10 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16

Nilus lands, swinging down hard with his glaive, and killing the half-orc beside Irabeth!

Ayesha swipes out twice at the gargoyle in front of her once more, killing it as well.

Attack: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28 Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
Attack: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32 Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Threat: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14 Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

The one remaining cultist sees Jestak screaming and rushing at him, and he quickly throws down his bow.

"I SURRENDER! I SURRENDER!"

The brimorak snarls back at him.

"Weakling! I'll kill you when I'm done with this lot!"

Seeing that the cultists around her are dead, Irabeth heads over to Nilus and quickly touches him.

"Be healed, friend."

Lay on Hands: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 1) = 7

Nilus heals for 7. The last cultist has surrendered and all that remains is one brimorak and one gargoyle. Everyone except for Ayesha and Nilus are up!

Jinxx pounces on the remaining gargoyle.

Bite: 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 12 + 1 = 32 Bite Dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Bite: 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 12 + 1 = 31 Bite Dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Gore: 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 12 + 1 = 30 Gore Dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Claw: 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 12 + 1 = 18 Claw Dmg: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Claw: 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 12 + 1 = 17 Claw Dmg: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Jinxx slams into the gargoyle, ripping and clawing. It manages tos tand up but bleeds heavily from its many wounds.

Taking advantage of Nilus finally landing, Dejik runs over to her fellow paladin and casts a healing spell.

Cure Moderate Wounds: 2d8 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (5, 8) + 7 + 1 = 21

Dejik absorbs 5 points each from Irabeth and Nilus.

Dejik courses healing energy into Nilus as he yanks his blade out of the dead cultist. She then takes on some of the pain of the party members, a small cut opening along her side as Irabeth's heals.

Sarkast and Ronan are up!

Sarkast continues to attack the brimorak beside him, sliding around to try to assist Jinxx with the gargoyle.

5' step and full attach. Haste, banner, overflowing grace.
Primary attack, cold iron dagger: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29 Damage: 1d1d4 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Secondary attack, magic dagger: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26 Damage: 1d1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Haste attack, cold iron dagger: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16 Damage: 1d1d4 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Not sure what damage die you were rolling there, but it was very close to death regardless.

Ignoring the burning blood splashing on him, thanks to Dejik's spell, Sarkast slams his daggers into the brimorak's gut, and twists before kicking the tiny demon off to die noisily.

The final gargoyle looks around at the group and the piles of corpses around they have created. Snarling, it lunges at Jinxx, the two fcreatures rolling around the floor as they tussle with tooth and claw. However, Jinxx remains unharmed.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14 Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16 Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16 Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

One baddie to go! Everyone is up!

Wow, not sure what happened on the first one, but after that it was copy&paste. ;-)

Sarkast kicks the brimorak and spins around to join Jinx. "Die like the rest of your kind!"

Move into flank, single attack. Haste, banner, overflowing grace.
Attack, magic dagger: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (2) + 15 = 17 damage: 1d4 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7 Sneak attack: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 5, 4) = 20

The RNG giveth, and the RNG taketh away.

Nilus flies over and slams Radiance down onto the gargoyle

Radiance: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (17) + 14 = 31 Damage: 1d10 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14

Nilus soars in, flipping Radiance overhead before it slashes down brutally through the gargoyles collarbone. It keels over face-first.

End of Combat

DING! Welcome to level eight!

Nilus' blade ends the gargoyle, and its body lands between Sarkast and Jinxx with a wet thump. Sarkast looks around for the next foe, and eventually relaxes when there are no more. As he pants, he feels a surge of energy. He wipes off his blades and sheathes them, then touches the bracelet he always wears and whispers, "Kiitos, minun jumalatar, aina katsomassa ylitseni."

Dejik tends to Nilus and Irabeth before the group goes any further. (She makes sure that all the foes within reach are dead first.)

Channel to heal: 5d6 + 1 ⇒ (3, 4, 1, 5, 5) + 1 = 19

She turns to Jestek and offers the barbarian woman her hand. Well fought. I am glad we decided to trust you.

Ayesha smiled as Nilus landed beside her after killing the last of their enemies. "Well done. I knew that spell would be of more use to you than myself. Now, let's see what these creatures had on them that might be of worth to us? Anyone see the Sword lying around?"

search the bodies and room for useful items

Only the border guards had items of value, which Ayesha collects up, easily identifying.

- 12 +1 flaming arrows
- 4 potions of cure moderate wounds
- 4 potions of shield of faith
- 4 potions of divine favor
- 4 masterwork chain shirts
- 4 masterwork composite long bows (14 Str rating)
- 4 masterwork falchions
- 4 elixir of hiding

Jestak takes a moment to recover as she looks around the devastation.

"I choose good, you are mighty! The Lord not stand a chance."

Irabeth wanders over to the opened south doors, peering out.

"I think this way leads back to the front entrance of the Citadel. We have inadvertently opened the front door."

The front entrance of the Citadel is now revealed on the map. As well, some empty rooms on the west side are revealed too.

Nilus nods at the suddenly reformed berserker. Perhaps it were still best if Lady Irabeth keep that weapon once you are free of this place. The other Crusaders might balk at seeing you armed...have no doubt that your actions here will weigh in your favor. I will see to it.

I'll level Nilus asap

Well, so much for a quick strike without attracting too much attention, Dejik says wryly. What else do we need to do to let the army take this place?

As the group recovers and looks over the fallen, Sarkast looks over to Irabeth and Jestak. "Irabeth, you went to retrieve Jestak because she had something to say to us, yes?"

Irabeth looks around, blowing out her cheeks.

"We're having success so far. This place is set up with those vicious deadlocks and so it's very sectioned-off; everything that attacked us came from the south. So the north and east are a question. If we attempt to occupy we'll be stuck in the hallways fighting creatures that could be far more powerful than that Vrock. I don't want to risk that many lives."

Jestak looks at the bodies on the ground, snarling at them.

"You choose wrong! I live now and you die!"

With a roar, she slashes off the head of one of the half-orcs who was near death. Irabeth rushes over to Jestak, grabbing her hand.

"NO! Drop the sword Jestak, you are still a prisoner. We do not kill prisoners unless we must."

For a moment, Jestak, still in her rage, looks like she's about to attack Irabeth before she calms down, and lowers her head, dropping her sword with a clang. Irabeth leads her over to the group before she goes to attend the bodies.

"Tell them what you know."

Jestak lowers her head, Sarkast knowing full well the body language of a Kellid who has been deeply humiliated.

"You beat me no problem. Lord Vhane will kill me for my failure to stop you, I am not ready to die. So I join you, understand? I tell you what you need to know."

She points northwards.

"There. They build new dungeon. Powerful magic. Mighty demons below. Lord Vhane is on this floor most times though. He has a brother; Joran Vhane. Lord Vhane plans to kill Joran, Joran knows this and is scared. He is only alive because he can work the corruption forge. Joran knows everything, maybe help. Know where banner is."

"What is the corruption forge?"

Jestak shrugs.

"Big forge, corrupts things. I don't know. It is underground, very important, but they don't give me details."

When she points northwards, is she pointing to the north end of the citadel or to some other location that lies north of the citadel?

This Joran--how well do you know him? Is he likely to turn against his brother out of fear? Dejik cocks her head. Or is he maybe only helping his brother out of fear? Why does his brother plan to kill Joran?
