GM WhtKnt's Open Water - A Skull & Shackles Adventure Path

Game Master WhtKnt

Almost as one, the group reacts to the alarm, slashing, hurling, and casting. Rogar's bomb goes off first, leaving the cyclops blinded and hurt. Riori casts prayer as Chumtooth hurls his harpoon, spearing the nearest cyclops and killing it almost instantly. Faengrim finishes the other with a series of fast blows.

Everyone is up. You have one more round before they can retaliate.

The cyclopes are indeed still flat-footed.

Chumtooth and Faengrim both slay a giant apiece before the massive humanoids have time to react.

Waiting for Riori, Rogar, and Dantes.

Forgot to add.
"You can surrender and live."

Rogar waits to see how the cyclopes react to to Feangrim's offer. He keeps a bomb ready in hand just in case they decide to attack.

I'll give Riori and Dantes until tomorrow before I bot them.

Dantes grins as his captain and shipmate hack the giants to death. He casually readies a wand, and sends two arcane darts into one of the pathetic giants!

Magic missiles, damage 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (3, 3) + 2 = 8

Riori, bouyed by the haste spell, can move faster on her wooden leg than normal, enough to get her through the door and into the room.

If the giants look like they are opting to fight to the death, she hurls her black starknife at the most wounded one.

Attack, Prayer, Haste, Range Penalty: 1d20 + 12 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 12 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 29
Damage, prayer: 1d4 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 1 = 9

If they look like they're considering the offer, she'll delay but attack if they do.

The remaining two giants pause for a half-second, exchanging glances, then they roar a challenge and move to attack.

The party is up! The cyclopes survivors can attack next round.

The cyclopes don't stand a chance. They are handily cut down by the captain and first mate before they are even fully awake. Before you can go further, a noise from the door draws your attention. Standing there is a member of your crew.

"Captain," she reports breathlessly, "I bring word from the ship. We were sighted by a passing vessel, and they turned to attack us, but I rallied the crew and repelled the attackers, sir."

This is the intro for our new/old player. It was a good way to introduce her and give Chumtooth an excuse to promote her to an officer.

"Well done..." Chumtooth pauses a moment to recall the sailor's name. "Prah-zi, is it? If your story proves true when we return, consider yourself promoted! Now that you have run all the way here, there is work for you. You will stay and help us conquer these one-eyed giants." He gestures to the slaughtered bodies of the cyclopses. "There are more. They will kneel or they will die."

Passing through the great doors to the south, you enter an antechamber that appears to be empty, with another set of doors on the south wall. Beyond this, a bloodstained fighting circle takes up the center of this long, rectangular hall. To the west stand three human-shaped archery targets, while two weapon racks line the opposite wall.

Two massive cyclopes are squaring off in the circle while two others look on. All four are overseen by a great female cyclops who gives shouted commands. As you enter, they all turn toward the door. The female shouts a command in their own language, and all five ready attacks.

Dantes, Prasi, and Rogar are up!

"Surrender and you can live. There will be gold and glory for you all."

GM, were her commands in the Giant language? If so, can I know what she said?

Yes, and she instructed them to attack for the glory of Ishtoreth.

Oh, more of the big one-eyes. Figures...

Rogar starts with his usual way - by bombing the enemies in front.
targeting #3, #2 would be splashed

sand bomb, prayer, haste, range: 1d20 + 11 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 22vs flat touch
damage: 5d6 + 6 ⇒ (2, 5, 4, 1, 6) + 6 = 24 fire damage plus blinded for one round
#2 takes 11 damage + blind. Ref DC 21 to halve and avoid blinded

"Captain, she commands them to attack with religious fervor!"

I will center a stinking cloud spell on the female leader.

"Then we will drown her prayers in a river of blood. Kill them all!" Chumtooth replies.

Prasi? I'll give them one more day to act, then bot them.

Dantes starts off the combat by casting a stinking cloud on the leader, but the giantess ignores the choking fumes. Prasi casts a spell of good hope over her allies, giving each a +2 morale bonus on saves, attacks, damage, ability checks, and skill checks (and don't forget the +1 luck bonus from the prayer). Rogar almost casually tosses a sand bomb at the nearest cyclops, catching #2 in the blast radius, leaving both blinded!

Both of the blinded cyclops flail blindly, following the sounds of the adventurers. Cyclops #3 swings violently at Chumtooth, the blow whistling over the captain's head.

Faengrim and Riori are up!

Faengrim steps into the reach of #2 and swings.

To Hit: 1d20 + 16 + 4 - 3 ⇒ (1) + 16 + 4 - 3 = 18 To Hurt: 2d6 + 8 + 4 + 9 + 2d6 ⇒ (1, 2) + 8 + 4 + 9 + (1, 2) = 27

#2 will not be taking an AoO, since he cannot see Faengrim approaching.

Riori rolls her eyes, tired of these creatures. But sensing this was going to be a tougher fight, in addition to Prasi's boon, Riori adds her own, casting divine favor on herself (+3 luck bonus to attack and damage for myself for 1 minute). She moves forward a little, toward the open doors, but not close enough to engage.

Forgot to add Prayer and Good Hope (even after GM reminder). That should be 21 to hit and 30 damage.

Faengrim connects with #2, leaving a heavy gash in the creature's thigh, as Riori intones another buffing spell. Shaija retreats from the choking vapors, going around the corner and out of sight. Cyclopes #1 and #4 level their crossbows at Faengrim, but neither is able to hit the first mate.

Cyclops #1 vs. Faengrim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15 Damage: 2d8 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4

Dantes readies his wand and watches the female warily. Concerned that she may be a shaman of some sort, he stands ready to disrupt her should she call on her god.

Ready action to magic missile the female if she starts casting a spell. Damage 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (3, 3) + 2 = 8

The female has disappeared around the corner at this point.

Then can we apply that damage to Cyclops #2? Let's see if that's enough to down him before he recovers from his blindness.

Sure.

Rogar keeps bombarding the closest giants with hot sand.
Closest doesn't have a number, but maybe it's #3.
#2 is splashed - and Faengrim is left out due to Precise bombs

sand bomb, prayer, haste, PBS: 1d20 + 11 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 11 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 33 vs touch
damage: 5d6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 6, 3, 5, 2) + 6 = 25 fire damage plus blinded for one round

Sorry team! I wasn't getting the updates on the Gameplay thread - thanks GM for the alert! I'll catch up.

The beautiful bard smiles, then chants some magic words while moving her hands. The spell acts, creating several copies of her reverberating in her space.

Standard to mirror image for 10 minutes

Images: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Following it, she does a quick step towards the party, immediately starting to dance and show her Varisian-style tattoos. There was something a bit *off* about her; unsettling, maybe, but the whole performance was undeniably entrancing.

5-foot step, then move action to start Inspire Courage (+5 morale on saves vs. charm and fear, +5 competence to both attack and damage).

WhtKnt, I see two female cyclopes on the board, one in the stinking cloud and another around the corner, in addition to the four male cyclopes engaging us closer in battle. But your combat tracker is telling us about only the four generic cyclopes and one leader. Who's the sixth one?

Uhm, there shouldn't be a sixth one, just the five. Let me take a look.

I only see one leader. I'm not sure why you see two. Ignore the one in the stinking cloud.

I'll chalk it up to a Google glitch!

I haven't forgotten you folks. I broke my glasses and don't have a spare set. I'm going to try to get them fixed ASAP. Just hang in there.

Chumtooth hits number 3 three times in rapid succession, his harpoon magically returning to his hand after each strike. His opponent is dead before the third strike lands. Dantes aims for the female in the stinking cloud, but she has disappeared around the corner, so he switches to number 2 with a volley of magic missiles. The giant staggers, but does not fall. Prasi casts mirror image four duplicates of her suddenly appearing, and all begin a sensuous dance. Since Rogar's initial choice of opponents has been slain, he hurls his bomb at number 2 with unerring accuracy. The bomb explodes in the giant's face, bringing his life to an abrupt end.

Both of the remaining giants close with Faengrim, each taking a single swing at the first mate (they have Reach). The first strikes true, but the second misses the agile mate. Faengrim takes 13 damage.

Faengrim and Riori are up! Don't forget Prasi's bonus of +5!

Cyclops 1 vs. Faengrim: 1d20 + 11 - 1 ⇒ (16) + 11 - 1 = 26 Damage: 3d6 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (2, 3, 2) + 7 - 1 = 13

Riori moves through the doorway 30 ft move incl haste and hurls her magical starknife at any cyclopes still standing.

The glittering black star hits its target and whirls back around into Riori's outstretched hand.

Faengrim, I think you forgot the inspire courage bonus - not that you need, honestly, with these rolls!

Prasi moves behind Faengrim, and lets her performance end - while its effects still linger for some moments.

Lingering performance for two more rounds

That said, she evaluates the immediate situation and just readies herself, but holds the scene for her companions to take care of.

Ready action, in case she is attacked, she will execute Song of Surrender against the attacker. Otherwise, just waiting to see how the round develops before using more resources

I just now realized that I had forgotten to add them.

I just now realized that I had forgotten to add them.
The rolls aren't really that good. These guys are just my favored enemy.

Faengrim strikes hard at the cyclops, and it falls before it realizes it is dead. Seeing it go down, he turns his attention to the other giant, wounding it severely. Riori flings her starknife, which embeds itself right in the giant's eye. The cyclops falls back, dead, as the knife magically returns to Riori's hand.

When I added the performance bonus to Faengrim's rolls, Riori did enough damage to kill it.

Everyone is up, but I'm keeping the combat open because you're chasing (I assume) the remaining one.
