GMTrex's 3-25 Storming the Diamond Gate (Inactive)

Game Master Andrew Trexler

Both Trifle and Jenny can't attack the southern spider.

Which is why I ask that you please move yourselves on the map. Cott's turn is technically before Trifle's so Jenny will make the attack. Trifle needs to find something else to do for Round V.

Round V Continued

Khakil manages to stick one spider, making it slump to the floor. Jenny attacks the other with limited effect while Cott heals himself.

Trifle is up.

Round V
Ivy: CLW
Baddies: spiders close
Khakil: stabs
Cott: Jenny attacks, Cott heals
Trifle: CURRENT

Trifle falls asleep again.

Ivy!

Sorry about that, Andrew. It's a little challenging on phones, which can't interact with the map (or often access the map at all) I'll notify Ivy that it's her turn.

Round V

Trifle moves so that she can see the spider and then casts a spell. A globule of acid hurls itself at the spider.

Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Acid Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

Ivy takes a five foot step away from the skirmish with the spider, and uses her wand in an attempt to not be so squishy.
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Trifle misses with her acid while Ivy heals. The spider bites at Jenny!

Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 but misses and bites the floor instead!

Round VI
Ivy: heals
Baddies: miss and ???
Khakil: CURRENT
Cott:
Trifle:

Khakil takes a 5 foot step west as he stabs with his rapier.

Rapier Spider: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Cott urges Jenny forward so he can approach the spider, and swings with his club.

club: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18 damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Jenny continues her assault on the spider as well.

talon: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18 damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
talon: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
bite: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Khakil steps up but can't hit the broad side of a barn. Cott and Jenny manages to club and claw the spider to bits.

The hallway stretches ahead, with only a skittering sound coming from beyond.

Trifle and Ivy are up!

"Great job destroying those spiders! I'm sorry to have been of no assistance. Might we heal up here and formulate a plan to get rid of the archer and big baddie? I went down so quickly... Thank you for getting me out of there!"
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

"I plan on leading the charge forward and casting at them from across the bridge. The rest of you should stay spread out and make your way around the platforms. We don't want to catch another fireball all at once again."

-Posted with Wayfinder

We are still in initiative, FYI.

It is Trifle's turn.

"What happened to trying to lure the demon into the cages?" Trifle hisses. "You young Pathfinders, always changing your minds..."

Trifle will not move, but instead cast a spell.

Another spider comes skittering around the corner, gnashing its fangs!

Everyone is up again:

Khakil:
Cott:
Trifle:
Ivy:

Khakil drops his rapier to pull out his shortbow. He looses an arrow at the spider.

Shortbow Spider: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

"That was never the main plan, you lazy succubus! Keep your wits about you. "

-Posted with Wayfinder

Khakil misses. Cott, Trifle, and Ivy are up. Let's try to finish this before the end of the month!

Cott steps forward and hurls a dart at the spider.

Dart: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23 Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Jenny is ordered to attack, and runs to the spider and lashes out with a talon.

Talon: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23 Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Cott and Jenny finish off the last spider. You are all in a dark hallway, with no sound coming from the cavern beyond.

Everybody is up, we'll start with new initiative. I will bot anybody who doesn't post so we can finish this ASAP and Cott and Khakil can hop into City of Strangers.

As long as everyone is updated, it looks like we are healed up.

Khakil readies his shield and sheaths his rapier.

"Right, everyone rush across the bridges in different routes. We can't take another area spell like that last one! I'll head to the middle platform and cast across the gap. Are we ready? "

-Posted with Wayfinder

Khakil takes his companions' silence as agreement and dashes back in.

I don't have a computer at this place yet so you'll have to move me-straight across the first bridge as far as possible.

-Posted with Wayfinder

"Following your lead friend!"

Cott rushes into the room again, and orders Jenny to attack the summoner.

Cott stops on the bridge and casts Flaming Sphere, conjuring a ball of ball on top of the caster.

Fire Damage: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 4) = 10

Edit: I assumed by new initiative you meant starting at the top of the order. If we're rerolling initiative, this will be my action for my turn, whenever it is.

"Sounds like a good plan. I'll follow your lead, and head in a separate direction."

Khakil running into the room would cause us to roll for initiative, right? Also, Khakil, I'm not sure that you can move that far into the room from the hallway or I would move us both... Can someone confirm that for me?

just move me 10 spaces towards the bridge

-Posted with Wayfinder

The second Khakil rounds the corner, the conjurer's spell goes off.

1d3 ⇒ 3

Three roiling masses of flesh burst forth onto the central platform and lumber in your direction.

Initiative!

Khakil: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Cott: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Ivy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
Trifle: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Baddies: 1d20 ⇒ 6

Order
Ivy: CURRENT
Cott: flaming sphere (retcon Jenny due to new info)
Khakil:
Baddies:
Trifle:

Go go go!

Ivy draws her Black Blade as she moves to separate from the group, according to Khakil's plan, calling, "Bard, if I find myself at the mercy of those... things, I will hold you personally accountable!"

Ivy spends one point from her Blade's Arcane Pool to add +1 to blade attacks.

"Quit your sassing. We Pathfinders have a job to do and we shall not stop before it's done! "

Khakil moves across the bridge as far as it allows him. only one move action, so 3 spaces south please.

He begins to perform a bardic ode. Too sleepy for creativity tonight. Might try to update later. ..

-Posted with Wayfinder

Cott and Jenny's actions will remain as they were. Flaming Sphere and attack conjurer. If someone could move Jenny back to where she was on the bridge I'd appreciate it. No PC atm.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Looks like she is standing next to you at the beginning of the bridge. And I don't remember if that's where she was before. Scoot, I've moved Khakil 3 spaces south of where you were behind Cott. Lemme know if that's not where you wanted to be.

Ivy glares over her shoulder at Khakil. "I can multitask just fine," she mutters before concentrating on the impossibly ugly baddies.

Ivy, by the looks of where you've put yourself, you've decided to hop down a 100ft cliff and taken 10d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 3, 1, 5, 3, 4, 6, 1, 6) = 37 falling damage and died. Please change your movement if that's not what you meant to do.

Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 The conjurer's robes catch fire, adding new layers of red and orange atop the cloth's own fiery colors.

Jenny trots by the three flesh lumps Kn Planes to identify as Khakil begins his chant and Ivy steps forward.

The balls of torrid flesh follow after the raptor, their closest target. All three lash out with clawed, half-formed limbs.

Claw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 MISS
Claw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 MISS
Claw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 MISS

All three claw uselessly at the air!

The conjurer steps to the side and casts a spell, sending three force missiles arcing across the room. One strikes Jenny, another Cott, and a third Khakil.

Damage@Jenny: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Damage@Cott: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Damage@Khakil: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Meanwhile, his guardsman sends two arrows flying at the tiefling.
Arrow: 1d20 + 9 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 9 - 2 - 2 = 9 MISS
Arrow: 1d20 + 9 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (19) + 9 - 2 - 2 = 24 HIT Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 4 = 11 One arrow punches through her armor with agonizing force.

Finally, a snarling red devil pops out of invisibility over Cott's shoulder and aims its stinger at his neck. Stinger: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 8 + 4 = 21 HIT Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3 Fortitude: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

The stinger leaves a bloody wound, but the druid fights off the poison!

BOT: Trifle swiftly runs her hand along her blade, which crackles with a new, brittle energy. Seeing the mosquito bothering Cott, she arcs her blade towards it Longsword: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 2 = 11 but catches only air.

Round II
Ivy:
Cott:
Khakil:
Baddies:
Trifle:

Khakil moves four spaces south and decides to trust Jenny's reflexes as he casts Grease over all four beasts.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23
Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
Reflex: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

One falls, but the rest keep their feet.

BOT: Ivy strides forward, black blade in hand. Her weapon stretches forward for one of the creatures... Attack: 1d20 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 1 + 2 = 11 ...but can't connect.

BOT: Cott directs the sphere back over the conjurer. Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 FAIL Fire Damage: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 4) = 11 The flames burn higher. Cott then attacks the imp behind him with his club. Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 6 + 2 = 17 HIT Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 He lands a solid blow, cracking the creature's skull.

Jenny continues her flight towards the conjurer.

The masses of flesh concentrate on Ivy.
Acrobatics: 1d20 ⇒ 18 SUCCESS
Claw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24 Confirm: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
Claw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Claw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Claw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24 Confirm: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
Claw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

TOTAL DAMAGE: 3d4 + 6 ⇒ (4, 1, 2) + 6 = 13 Things look a little grim for the magus. HP=5/21

The conjurer himself again steps away from the sphere and begins another spell. The archer sends a pair of bolts at Trifle. Arrow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12 Arrow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 Both miss!

The imp aims for Cott Stinger: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 but misses!

BOT: Trifle concentrates on the creature before her. Blade: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 6 + 2 = 21 HIT Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (8) + 3 + (2) = 13 Her electrified weapon fells the creature!

Round III
Ivy@5/21hp:
Cott@25/30hp:
Khakil@23/24hp:
Baddies:
Trifle@28/43hp:

GO GO GO!

Cott moves south along the bridge (to two spaces south of Trifle) and directs the ball of flame onto the sorcerer again. Fire damage: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 6) = 10 Reflex DC 15 negates Jenny continues on across the bridges towards the caster.

I think she can reach as far as the southern bridge directly south from Ivy's current position. Apologies for not being able to move her myself. And I would apologize for missing a turn, but frankly Andrew did a hell of a lot better than I usually do.

Ivy casts Color Spray at the baddies and then slashes at the fleshy monster to the south with her Black Blade.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 4 + 1 = 17
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Khakil moves 5 spaces south and one SE while continuing his ode.

He casts unnatural lust on the sorcerer.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Ivy would have to step to get all three in the spell, so I've done that.

Will: 1d20 ⇒ 4 FAIL
Will: 1d20 ⇒ 13 FAIL
Will: 1d20 ⇒ 11 FAIL

All three fall to the ground, unconscious! 2d4 ⇒ (4, 2) = 6 more rounds. Ivy cuts one open, eliciting a flood of putrid pus and flesh from the creature's misshapen belly.

Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20 FAIL The fireball continues its assault before winking out of existence. Concentration: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29 He somehow keeps his spell! Jenny runs hard across the bridges.

Khakil steps across the platform and casts his bizarre spell. Will: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 FAIL Concentration: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28 but he still keeps his spell! What is the intended object? You, I'm assuming? The conjurer (still holding his spell!) runs straight across the bridge and comes face to face with the velociraptor.

The archer keeps up his attacks on Trifle.
Arrow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Arrow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

But both miss again!

BOT: Trifle moves towards the battle.

No problem!

Khakil moves 1 NW, 4W while drawing his rapier and chanting.

He stabs at the fallen creature between him and Trifle.

Rapier: 1d20 + 3 + 1 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 3 + 1 + 4 + 2 = 27
Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Thanks for the assist!
Ivy slices at the baddie lying closest to her.
Attack: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 4 + 1 = 20
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Jenny, finding herself suddenly face to face with a flaming sorcerer who was stupid enough to run straight into her claws, leaps to attack with tooth and talon.

Talon 1: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28 Slashing Damage : 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
Talon 2: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16 Slashing Damage : 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26 S, P, B Damage : 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Cott moves directly to Ivy's east and attempts to close her gaping wounds with his wand.

Melee Touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 Healing: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Love isn't stupid, Rick. It's blind. Blind to raptors.

Lol.

Jenny goes berserk on conjurer, literally ripping him to shreds. The lemure devils warp back to their home plane, leaving only the archer in your way.

He shoots for the nearest threat: Jenny.
Arrow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Arrow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

But he can't land a shot!

BOT: Trifle moves across the bridges some more.

Round V
Ivy:
Cott:
Jenny:
Archer:
Trifle:

Cott yells to Jenny to attack the archer, and she rushes across the bridge, able to reach the guard but not attack.

Then Cott yells to the man, who has suddenly found himself devoid of allies and with a raging dinosaur that is dripping blood from its talons breathing down his neck.

"Yield and you may yet live. Your friends are dead, but you needn't follow them to hell if you're smart! "

He then proceeds across the bridge following after Jenny as far as he can reach.

Khakil drops his rapier and shield to pull out his shortbow as he moves 1SE, 3E. His ode continues, but is on the last verse.

He fires an arrow at the man.

Shortbow-Regular Arrow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

-Posted with Wayfinder

"Cott, don't make promises you can't keep! The Master of Swords has charged us to eliminate the Aspis scum!" So saying, Ivy drops her sword and pulls out her composit longbow. She shoots, and...
Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
...watches the arrow fall directly at her feet.
"Drat!

"He didn't need to know that Magus. You need to learn something of tradecraft my dear."

-Posted with Wayfinder

The archer merely grunts. He steps away from the dinosaur and shoots at deadly range.
Arrow: 1d20 + 9 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 9 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 24 HIT Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 4 + 1 = 13
Arrow: 1d20 + 9 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 9 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 16 MISS

BOT: Trifle books it across the bridges.

Khakil@23/24hp:
Baddies:
Trifle@28/43hp:

Khakil's ode runs out.
"Cott, could you have Jenny attack him from the east? " he asks.

He fires another shot at the archer. Shortbow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 3

-Posted with Wayfinder

"Jenny's smart, but she's not that smart, and she has got an abysmal sense of direction. No good at all with east and west I'm afraid. She's a shortest distance between two points kind of gal. "

Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 Slashing Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Crit confirm?

Khakil lands a bolt, with small effect.
