GM Tarondor's Trouble in Tamran (PFS Scenario 7-07) TABLE "B" (Inactive)

Game Master Tarondor

See above. I answered that Thursday, just before your previous message.

Thanks

I believe Mr. Copperpot's player returns tomorrow, so we'll give him and Bryndarynn another day.

spellcraft: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25

knowledge (history): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22

"Go back!" it moans. "Seek not to disturb that which our labors laid to rest at the cost of our lives! He who would disturb this place shall surely perish of the ancient curses birthed from the belly of the lich king!"

"Cut the crap."

Seeing the ghost cast a spell, Bryndarynn hurls a ball of acid at the undead.

Acid Splash: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 1 + 2 = 14 for acid damage of : 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

[dice=spellcraft]1d20+9

[dice=knowledge (history)]1d20+8

"Cut the crap."

LOL

Mr. Copperpot continues focusing on his detect magic spell, hoping to determine the school of magic.

Bryndarynn's ball of acid streaks into the pack of ghosts, but all the ghosts between her and her target interfere with her aim and acid instead plows through several ghosts.

Gotta run. I'll be back to do the ghosts' turn in a while.

The ghost rush forward, their chilly, spectral weapons hacking down in an archaic frenzy.

will save: 1d20 + 4 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 4 + 5 = 19

Is it an enchantment?

Nope.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12 Will

Will: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

No save needed from Bryndarynn. I do still need saves from Ser Willem and Xiao Hua.

Mr. Copperpot concentrates a final round to try to determine the school of magic.

knowledge arcana: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20 DC 15 + spell leve to ID school of magic
knowledge arcana: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
knowledge arcana: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

We're a bit distant from your turn, Mr. Copperpot. Once we get there, you may or may not want to update your orders.

Also: correction. There are five auras, not three. All faint.

Will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19

These ghosts were getting to be quite an obstacle and Ser Willem knew he had little to combat them with. He didn't have much time to think about that as they charged forward.

Will Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

Natula, it's your turn!

"I call bull-s&#!! Fulgar!!" Natula steps forward into the ranks of the dead and lets fly a cone of magical lightning. She draws her wand with her free hand.

Reflex DC 16 (intense versatile evocation): 3d4 + 1 ⇒ (2, 1, 1) + 1 = 5 electrical damage--EDIT On a range from 4-13, that is one lousy roll.

Also, I gather a day or two has passed since Natula had to douse the fire in the bar correct?

"Squeee!"

Kalus alights upon the ruin overlooking the battlefield.

Nicely done with the overlay, Natula. Very helpful.

Zzzzot! The waves of electrical energy ripple through the ghosts without seeming to harm them, but Natula's true target seems rattled by the shock.

The male ghost at the rear moans and gestures and a rope sitting atop the wall falls onto Talondreal, writhing and grasping, tying knots and binding hands and feet!

Talondreal, please give me a DC 14 Reflex save!

Everyone, having seen the various interactions with the ghosts, may make a DC 17 will save with a +4 for Natula's having pointed out the illusions.

MAP

Ser Willem, Taldondreal (after Reflex save, above) and Xiao Hua, go!

Will: 1d20 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 4 = 8
Fleeing back Xiao Hua tries to keep her comrades between herself and the enemies.

Will Save: 1d20 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 3 + 4 = 23

Seeing that some of these ghosts weren't actually real, Ser Willem decided to put a stop to this mockery of the dead and charged right for the one casting at Talondreal.

Charging Sword: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 2 = 131d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

The rope falls on the paladin and begins to try to bind him, as he struggles against them
1d20 ⇒ 13

Sir Willem seems to charge through the ghostly ranks and charge the elvish female ghost, who seems to flow out of the way of his outthrust sword.

Talondreal struggles with the rope, becoming entangled.

Still need orders from Talondreal and Xiao Hua.

Will Save: 1d20 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 3 + 4 = 18 Presuming Same Bonus? Else it is a 14.

Talondreal and Xiao Hua, go!

The half-elf will charge the opponent that the cavalier has sword at the ready to slash.

1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 5 + 2 = 23

1d10 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Will: 1d20 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 + 4 = 20

Talondreal, you can't charge becaus you are entangled (see above). Also, even if free, you couldn't charge through the ghosts which Talondreal still regards as real. New orders, please.

Bryndarynn, it isn't your turn yet. However, I'll regard an attempt to disbelieve as your next action and you can keep that die roll.

Talondreal and Xiao Hua, go.

Sorry, above you asked everyone to make a DC will save.

Everyone, having seen the various interactions with the ghosts, may make a DC 17 will save with a +4 for Natula's having pointed out the illusions.

I will move up as far as I can.

Xiao hua will flee from them. Double move

Talondreal, please examine the map. Moving forward is not an option.

He will move 5' since there isnt anything else he can do.,

You could try to break out of the rope or to attach a nearby ghost...

str 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

The female elvish "ghost" suddenly disappears, reappearing in the midst of the fray, where she attempts to cast a spell.

Casting Defensively (DC 12): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

A brilliant blast of disorienting color and light floods out from her fingertips, engulfing Talondreal, Bryndarynn and Mr. Copperpot. Anyone who has seen Mr. Copperpot cast it knows it to be color spray.

Talondreal, Bryndarynn and Mr. Copperpot, please give me DC 15 Will saves!

will save: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 2 = 7

Mr. Copperpot has been so focused on determining the type of magic they are facing while running in circles, that he takes the spell full in the face.

Will 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

Will: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19 Woohoo!

Ripley Will save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

Mr. Copperpot is out cold for 2d4 ⇒ (1, 3) = 4 rounds. His stoic dwarven bodyguard fades away. His little rat-sized dinosaur hunkers over his master, hissing in anger!

Brydarynn and Talondreal, however, are unaffected.

Now a ghostly scroll appears in mid-air before the male elven "ghost". He begins to read the spell writ thereon...

Bryndarynn, go! Mr. Copperpot can have Ripley do something, too.

Shaking off the effects of the burst of colors, Brynn hurls a ball of ice at the female elvish ghost.

Snowball: 1d20 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 2 + 1 = 23 for cold damage of : 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (1, 6) + 1 = 8
Confirm Crit: 1d20 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 1 = 7 for cold damage of : 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (1, 6) + 1 = 8

Very nice damage and hit from the snowball
