GM Tyranius Giantslayer (Inactive)

Game Master Tyranius

Assuming you all expend rest of your spells to heal up through the night.

Once rested the two groups prepare to split off in two separate directions. The Doppleganger under the form of an orc once more joins in with their ranks to help see them through the tunnels as he has traveled them for several days now. The orcs seem to be heartened for battle once more. Their eyes, after a meal and bolstered spirits, seems to shine with a renewed luster for battle as the orcs mix nearby water with crushed rock for a bit of warpaint as they prepare for battle.

Giving a nod of acceptance the two groups depart with the Trunau Militia continuing north and the orc clan headed back south west. The orcs grunt back in broken common. "We will not fail."

A metal gate stands open, allowing entry to this natural cavern. The natural space has been enlarged in some areas to form a crude rectangle. Nine humanoid metal statues are spaced at regular intervals in a grid, with others leaning haphazardly against the east wall alongside some giant-sized weapons and human-sized armor. Stairs in the northeast and southeast corners lead to platforms with large chairs. Painted on the walls are crude silhouettes of dwarves, elves, halflings, humans, and orcs, all of which show much wear. A natural tunnel leads north, with another metal gate standing open.

This is where the giants practice with weapons and heavier armor. Metal gates on the north and south exits reach 8 feet high, leaving a 6-foot gap between the top of each gate and the ceiling. The gates are normally left open, but can be held closed by a sturdy latch at the top that connects to an iron ring mounted on the wall—easy for a giant to reach but awkward for a Medium creature to manipulate (this requires a full-round action unless the creature climbs or is lifted to reach the top of the gate, in which case it requires only a standard action).

The metal statues are cast out of a mold in the forge, and each depict a crudely posed human with a sword and shield. By training against these durable metal dummies, the giants practice fighting smaller humanoids. After about a day or two of abuse, the statues become decapitated, dismembered, or otherwise destroyed, and the pieces are sent back to the forge to be melted down, recast into more statues, and brought here again. Four extra statues lean against the eastern wall awaiting their abuse.

The weapons along the east wall are all Large masterwork weapons and include a bastard sword, a battleaxe, a glaive, a heavy f lail, heavy mace, a longspear, and a warhammer. Although fire giant soldiers normally use greatswords, the king encourages his troops to try other weapons to increase their familiarity with the advantages and disadvantages of each.

Sets of Medium half-plate armor adorn six of the dummies, salvaged from various opponents; one is clearly of elven manufacture, two are orc armor, and the others appear to have been made by humans. Each set is beaten, bloodstained, and smells like a sweaty orc, but still provides its normal protection. Sometimes unruly slaves or prisoners are brought here, strapped into this armor, and attacked by the giants for practice against living targets. The fire giant priestesses cast spells on these victims (such as bear’s endurance, false life, rage, or even shield other) to make them last longer against the giants, but this only delays the inevitable. During these training exercises, the north and south gates are closed and latched, preventing the prisoners from escaping the room.

Each of the platforms is 10 feet high. Officers and visiting dignitaries use them to watch the soldiers practice. The chairs are comfortable for Large giants but are more like beds for Medium creatures.

Standing on each of the platforms is a frost giant and a fire giant representative as they each oversee a pair of their forces mock battling the statues and each other with various weapons.

Is Thoon with us?

Rog eyes the training ground and grunts dismissively at the forces training on the lower ground. He starts to fly, hoping to make opening the gate easier for when the rest decide to charge in.

"Should we go for the officers? The grunts may run if we destroy their leaders." He asks before he lifts off the ground.

"No place for 'em ta run if we take th' high ground." Kraygan points to the far platform with the frost giant. "Only the gate n' tha' tunnel. If Wren kin get me n' Haggis up thar quick I'll cut off retreat n' reinforcements. Otherwise, let's jus' yak-charge 'em again."

Thoon went with the orcs unless convinced otherwise.

"I think it makes sense to go for the officers first. Even if the grunts don't run, they will be far less effective."

Waited a day to see if Farin wanted his weapon fixed. /shrug

Wren agrees with Farin. "Let's go get the officers. We'll see if that has any impact."

At the new room, Wren offers some magics to help the party. FJKR: 1d4 ⇒ 1 "Farin, come here. Take this." Wren casts Extended Heroism on Farin. JKR: 1d3 ⇒ 2 "And Kraygan," Wren motions Kraygan forward. "You as well." Extended Heroisms...280 minutes.

He casts Heroism on himself, and then Overland Flight (so he can stop walking like a chump). And Mage Armor so he doens't feel ridiculous going into a fight with giants without it.

When the party is ready to charge in, Wren will cast Haste.

Round 1/14: Haste...you know the deal.

For some reason, I though Rogzul was the one to do the repair, and was afraid to ask :)

"Thanks, Wren. What was that? I feel even more egotistic than usual! Nice!"

Farin checks over his gear and draws his swords in preparation. He also fills his sipping vest with a new invisibility potion.

"Hey, if anyone has a way to repair this blade, it might help us. Assuming those fire giants don't keep targeting it..."

Too late for Wren to fix it...unless GM Tyr doesn't mind some retro fixing. Wren has already cast Heroisms and mending is 10min castings each.

Wren grunts in response, unwilling to explain the fine detail of magic to a yaktender.

Actually, Heroism pretty much negates the penalty, so other than a greater risk of full breakage, the heroism is probably better anyway.
Next time we hit a town, I will get some scrolls...

After waking and doing some terrible things to the bathroom in Wren's mansion, Jorgan spends some time brushing down Spirit and getting ready for the day.

Heading out with the others to face more giants, he gives himself and Spirit barkskin as usual before using the magic shovel-rod to move the walls out of the way so the party can head deeper into the complex.

---

Looking in on the giants and their mock battle, Jorgan nods along with the plan. "Aye, our rush-in-and-kill-the-bigguns-first strategy hasn't failed us yet. We'll be right behind ya." He then uses some spells to make his spear heavier and Spirit's horns harder.

lead blades and strong jaw

No one charging in or hop straight into Init?

I considered saying the Rog had fixed the weapons, then realized how unlikely that might be given recent events. Has the fellowship been broken?

Rog grunts as the rest cast, enlarging his size and preparing to fly straight toward the officers as soon as the dwarves move.

I always assume Kraygan will charge, but perhaps best to wait for confirmation from him?

Farin will take a sip from his vest, and wink to the others as he turns invisible.

With haste, he works his way into position.

Stealth: 1d20 + 31 + 20 - 5 ⇒ (13) + 31 + 20 - 5 = 59

Kraygan cranks his arm, rips a fart, and charges in!

As everyone is in position Kraygan let's out his own version of a thunderous roar and charges into the room to make his visual presence known.

Round 1, Init 19

Wren moves up (and up 40') and decides to move the left to help Farin with his giant.

Wren sends a fireball at the two frost giants.

10d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 5, 2, 6, 1, 6, 6, 6, 4) = 38 fire vs. DC 21 Reflex

Haste (round 2/14): +1 to hit, AC, reflex, attx, yadayadayada.

Farin steps in and loses his invisibility as he starts slicing away at the green giant's lower extremities.

Using Risky Striker to maximize damage. +6 per attack for -3 AC

Each hit will also give 2 strength damage, and the first hit will make his AC -6 vs Farin (and -2 for other), lasting for this round and an additional for each hit after the first.

+1 Menacing Sword (Primary 1), hasted, heroism vs flat-footed, giant: 1d20 + 18 + 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 18 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 28
Damage vs giant, risky strike: 1d4 + 7 + 2 + 6 + 6d6 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 2 + 6 + (3, 4, 6, 1, 3, 5) = 41

+1 Menacing Sword (Primary 2), hasted, heroism vs flat-footed, giant: 1d20 + 13 + 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 13 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 25
Damage vs giant, risky strike: 1d4 + 7 + 2 + 6 + 6d6 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 2 + 6 + (6, 5, 4, 4, 2, 2) = 40

+3 broken Dueling Sword (Secondary 1), hasted, heroism vs flat-footed, giant: 1d20 + 22 - 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 22 - 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 37
Damage, broken vs giant, risky strike: 1d4 + 9 - 2 + 2 + 6 + 6d6 ⇒ (4) + 9 - 2 + 2 + 6 + (6, 3, 4, 3, 2, 6) = 43

+3 broken Dueling Sword (Secondary 2), hasted, heroism vs flat-footed, giant: 1d20 + 17 - 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 17 - 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 35
Damage, broken vs giant, risky strike: 1d4 + 9 - 2 + 2 + 6 + 6d6 ⇒ (3) + 9 - 2 + 2 + 6 + (2, 4, 5, 1, 3, 4) = 37

+1 Menacing Sword (Haste), hasted, heroism vs flat-footed, giant: 1d20 + 18 + 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 18 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 33
Damage vs giant, risky strike: 1d4 + 7 + 2 + 6 + 6d6 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 2 + 6 + (4, 4, 6, 3, 4, 6) = 44

Farin's AC at the end is 26 (27 +1 Haste +1 Hero -3 Risky Strike

Then, Farin will take another sip from his jacket to turn invisible. Swift action

If the giant doesn't fall, he will drop his broken sword and pull out a potion of gaseous form.

@Farin- You are still 15 feet out around a pillar so wouldn't be able to get a full attack on your opening. Did you wish to change it up?

Jorgan maneuvers Spirit into the room, staying just behind Kraygan. Along the way he casts a spell and Spirit's horns grow sharper and gain a magical sheen as if they had been polished.

greater magic fang

It looked like 5' to me. He wouldn't attack without a full attack, and he would have gotten into position to do so before they started. How big is that pillar?

Edit: Oh, when I was zxoomed in, I only saw the shadow and thouught that was debris. But statement still valid - if he couldn't get in position before the attack started, he won't attack. There is little point in him making a single attack and leaving himself wide open, so he would just stay hidden.

Pillar and each space is 10 feet.

The spikes on Spirit's horns grow sharper and even deadlier as they double in size and quantity.

Farin lurks further around the pillar containing the mock armor as he closes in on the giant.

Wren throws a small bead into the room at the pair of frost giants. The flames lick at the frost giant's, making life very uncomfortable for them.

Purple Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
Red Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15

As the smoke clears the Frost giants seem a bit singed but overall mostly unharmed. Prot from energy (fire)

Drawing a longsword, Reingar transfers the cold from his hands to the blade as sharp, jagged ice crystals form along the blade. he steps down from his pedestal to confront the would be intruders.

"Just as we practiced! You know exactly what to do. Now circle in. Work as one with the Flamebeards."

Kraygan holds his ground for now, waiting to see what tactics the giants think will help them.

Delaying to go with Rogzul.

Using their training the giants begin to close the gap around Kraygan and the rest of the Trunau Militia.

Too bar in the back to get very close, Rogzul flies as far ahead of the group as he's willing to without exposing himself to a quick death. He growls low as he nears the giants and draws his spear.

Double Move

"Trying to surround us? Predictable!"

Kraygan lowers his lance and charges the frost giant with a red armband, aiming to punch a hole in their tactics.

Swift action to pickup Furious Focus for a minute.
Cavalier charge/PA/GH/Heroism/Haste and Combat Expertise for +4 AC
+2 Lance: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (18) + 26 = 44
Thundering Charge Damage + Acid: 6d6 + 69 + 1d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 6, 2, 6, 5) + 69 + (2) = 97

AC 40 vs giants

Kraygan charges in at the frost giants from across the chamber, leaving a wide berth between himself and and the rest of his companions. Kraygan's lance punctures into the frost giant's defenses, knocking it back a few steps.

Rogzul hovers further into the chamber to cut off the fire giants. The fire giants look to surround Kraygan quickly as the blue flame bearded fire giant charges forth with his greatsword, covering a massive amount of ground with each stride.

Greatsword vs Kraygan AC 40; charge; PA: 1d20 + 21 + 2 - 3 ⇒ (3) + 21 + 2 - 3 = 23

Kraygan leans back avoiding the blade as it whisks right over his head. The heat from teh flames singes his face as the blade passes by.

Jorgan sees a clear path to the left to help Farin and provide a flanking partner so her maneuvers Spirit around one of the pillars and strikes at the giant! (green)

heartspit: 1d20 + 16 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 16 + 2 + 1 = 20
damage: 2d8 + 18 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (3, 1) + 18 + 2 + (3, 1) = 28

gore: 1d20 + 15 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 15 + 3 = 31
damage: 3d6 + 22 + 3 ⇒ (6, 3, 1) + 22 + 3 = 35
Plus 1 bleed

It seems a waste to show myself without a full attack, but I don't think Jorgan will get flanking bonuses if I don't, and at this rate, Farin will be rather useless. Perhaps it is a good day to die!

Farin moves in behind the giant and attacks across from Jorgan.

+1 Menacing shortsword, flanking, combat expertise, heroism: 1d20 + 22 - 3 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 22 - 3 + 2 = 31
Damage + sneak + flank: 1d4 + 8 + 6d6 ⇒ (1) + 8 + (1, 6, 2, 3, 4, 5) = 30

+2 strength damage and Disoriented: The target takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls vs all, -6 vs Farin.

AC is 31. Hopefully coupled with the -7 attack, the giant won't mush me!

Farin and Jorgan move in on the fire giant, battering it's defenses as they flank the stumpy giant. Though Jorgan misses both Farin and Spirit leave jagged wounds across the giant's legs.

Still standing the giant thumps it's chest. "HE GIVES ME STRENGTH!"

Round 2, Init 19

Wren casts Glitterdust DC21 Will vs. Blind on the two giants near Kraygan, then draw his Staff of Frost.

Haste (round 3/14): +1 to hit, AC, reflex, attx, yadayadayada.

Wren hurls more elven dust at giants surrounding Kraygan in hopes to blind the pair.

Red Will save DC 21: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
Blue Will save DC 21: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

The giants seem incredible susceptible to Wren's magical effects as the dust blinds them both.

Continue to encircle the deadly warriors the blind frost giant swings his axe about blindly at Haggis.

Greataxe vs Haggis AC 27: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (18) + 18 = 36
Damage: 3d6 + 13 ⇒ (5, 1, 6) + 13 = 25
Blinded Miss chance; Low=good: 1d100 ⇒ 56

Greataxe vs Haggis AC 27: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24

The blinded giant manages to miss the yak that is the side of a barn as the axe carries it's momentum in a complete circle.

"Har!" Kraygan laughs at the blinded giants. "Stay here. I'll be right back ye djits!"

Kraygan gallops off unexpectedly, charging at the green eyed fire giant between Jorgan and Farin.

Cavalier charge/PA/GH/Heroism/Haste and Combat Expertise for +4 AC
+2 Lance: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (4) + 22 = 26
Thundering Charge Damage + Acid: 6d6 + 69 + 1d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 2, 3, 3, 6) + 69 + (1) = 95

Haggis Charge!: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (18) + 19 = 37
Damage: 2d6 + 23 ⇒ (6, 6) + 23 = 35

AC 40 vs giants

Rogzul keeps with his plan and moves toward the Lieutenant, channeling his spirit energy into his spear as he moves to engage.

+4 Giant's Bane Longspear - PA: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (12) + 25 = 37
Damage: 2d6 + 26 + 4d6 ⇒ (4, 6) + 26 + (6, 5, 2, 4) = 53

AC 21

Channeling his spirits Rogzul focuses on the Fire giant lieutenant as he puncture's through the half-plate armor.

Kraygan spins around giving the giants a run for their money as he shatters the fire giant's spine with his lance.

The blinded fire giant stumbles towards the sound of thundering hooves slashing at the sound of battle.

Greatsword vs Spirit AC 38: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (13) + 21 = 34

The fire giant didn't seem to wander far enough and only swipes at open air.

Glitterdust DC 21: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24

The beard of flames quickly burns away the magical dust allowing the giant to see once again.

Farin takes a sip from his jacket to again fade from view, and then he moves to behind one of the frost giants (purple), both swords drawn. He waits for the opportune moment to strike.

Stealth: 1d20 + 31 + 20 - 5 ⇒ (12) + 31 + 20 - 5 = 58

Jorgan and Spirit pivot, bringing spear and horn to the blue giant!

heartspit: 1d20 + 19 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 19 + 2 + 1 = 41

Plus 1 bleed

Round 3, Init 19

Floating 40' up, Wren begins a full round cast, seeking to bring more meat to this giant sausage party. SMVI.

Haste (round 4/14): +1 to hit, AC, reflex, attx, yadayadayada.

Heartspit and Spirit jab into the fire giants hips causing fresh blood to flow down the fire giants blue pants.

Farin takes a sip from his jacket, blending to the backdrop. The small halfling is able to easily navigate into a more favorable position.

Wren begins a complicated casting as he summons more aid from another realm to their cause.

Reingar utters a simple word and vanishes from sight. The frost giant disappeared as quickly as Farin did.

Left orange on map for last known position.

The frost giants charge in at Kraygan and Jorgan. Well the blind one more stumbles his way in at Jorgan.

Greataxe vs Kraygan AC 40; charge: 1d20 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 18 + 2 = 33

Greataxe vs Jorgan AC 35: 1d20 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 18 + 2 = 25

Glitterdust DC 21: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Both giants miss their targets as Jorgan uses his spear to hold the axeblade off from striking his body.

The fire giant lieutenant draws his greatsword back as he glares at Rogzul's deadly spear. His body shakes in fright of the spear's deadly precision. "Unmaker." He growls and slams his greatsword into the wooden haft.

Improved Sunder vs CMD 28 | +4 giant's bane spear| hardness 13; HP 40; PA: 1d20 + 28 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 28 - 4 = 25

Improved Sunder vs CMD 28 | +4 giant's bane spear| hardness 13; HP 40; PA: 1d20 + 23 - 4 ⇒ (3) + 23 - 4 = 22

Improved Sunder vs CMD 28 | +4 giant's bane spear| hardness 13; HP 40; PA: 1d20 + 18 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 18 - 4 = 22

That is unfortunate.

Rogzul jams the blade up with the nook of his spear's jagged blade, effectively stopping the greatsword from shattering his prized weapon.

Rog continues trading blows with the fire giant Lieutenant, fearing that he may lose the spear in the process but having no other option but to use it. He takes a step back, to provoke the giant into opening up his defenses again.

@Rogzul- The giant only took a 5 foot step.

Rogzul continues to stick the lieutenant like a matador playing with a young bull.

Haggis spins on his heels as the frost giant's make a tactical error allowing Kraygan too much room to roam. Kraygan's lance cracks the giant's chest in, puncturing lungs and heart alike.

Leaping in the remaining fire giant crashes his greatsword down on Kraygan's lance in an attempt to destroy the dwarf's weapon. "That will be enough of your tiny thorn."

Improved Sunder vs CMD 39; +2 Lance (Hardness 9; HP 30); PA: 1d20 + 16 - 3 ⇒ (19) + 16 - 3 = 32

Improved Sunder vs CMD 39; +2 Lance (Hardness 9; HP 30); PA: 1d20 + 11 - 3 ⇒ (12) + 11 - 3 = 20

Kraygan's lance is too well built to be destroyed by such weak strikes as the giant is only able to put small dents in the haft before bleeding out further.

Farin moves up along side the pillar, very aware of an invisible giant nearby.
Stealth: 1d20 + 31 + 20 ⇒ (16) + 31 + 20 = 67

He turns visible as he drops his broken sword and draws and throws a dagger at blue.

Ranged Attack: 1d20 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 18 + 2 = 33
Damage: 1d3 + 7 + 6d6 ⇒ (2) + 7 + (1, 3, 6, 1, 6, 4) = 30
-2 Str and Disoriented: The target takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls. In addition, the target takes an additional –4 penalty on all attack rolls it makes against the rogue.

Then he tries to re-hide, taking a sip from his jacket to disappear.
Stealth: 1d20 + 31 + 20 - 20 ⇒ (12) + 31 + 20 - 20 = 43 Sniping

Dayamn. We're getting lucky with those sunder rolls. More like "dunder rolls", amirite?

Round 4, Init 19

Wren completes his spell, bringing more chaos to the mix. He summons back the grumpy air elemental from yesterday, binding it to fight for the side of good grump.

The elemental comes to existence in a spot where its reach can be deadly. 20' up.

The elemental slams first red fire giant, or blue frost giant without a freak to give.

1d20 + 21 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 21 + 2 = 37 to hit; (+augsum)
2d8 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (1, 8) + 7 + 2 = 18 to damage;

1d20 + 21 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 21 + 2 = 30 to hit; (+augsum)
2d8 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (2, 2) + 7 + 2 = 13 to damage;

After summoning, Wren moves away and readies an interrupting Magic Missile should a caster begin casting a spell.

Haste (round 5/14): +1 to hit, AC, reflex, attx, yadayadayada.

Farin drops his cracked blade and takes a sniped shot at the blue flames fire giant. The dagger sticks soundly in between the giant's shoulder blades before vanishing again.

Wren's spell completes as he calls upon the air elemental lord once again so soon. Angered at being called so soon the air elemental brings its wrath down upon the wounded fire giant, battering it's neck and back but not enough to fell the giant.

Jorgan and Spirit keep focusing on the blue giant in front of them, already heavily wounded, before turning their attention to another.

So blue first, then red if blue falls.

Plus 1 bleed

Jorgan and Spirit remain focused as Heartspit severs the fire giant's spine before moving on and skewering the frost giant several times. Jorgan fells both giants with precision strikes.

Casting is heard nearby but Wren doesn't have a visible target as the lieutenant continues to try and sunder Rogzul's spear.

Improved Sunder vs CMD 28 | +4 giant's bane spear| hardness 13; HP 40; PA: 1d20 + 28 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 28 - 4 = 42

Improved Sunder vs CMD 28 | +4 giant's bane spear| hardness 13; HP 40; PA: 1d20 + 18 - 4 ⇒ (6) + 18 - 4 = 20

Rogzul's spear breaks in half as the greatsword turns it into splinters in his hands.

Well f!&$, there goes all my damage, I blame Wren for taunting the dicebot.

Rog growls as his longspear is sundered and he grabs his only remaining weapon.

He charges it with his spirits and strikes out against the lieutenant again.

Attack-PA: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (7) + 21 = 28
Damage: 2d6 + 22 + 2d6 ⇒ (2, 4) + 22 + (1, 1) = 30

Oof. Broken weapons sucks. Maybe it's time we invested in some adamantine or added the impervious magical ability?

"Oy! Where's the boss! Did he runnoft like a coward?!"

Kraygan laughs, then sights down at the only giant he can see. "Ye'll do, I s'pose. Ready 'r not, 'ere I come!!"

Cavalier charge/PA/GH/Heroism/Haste and Combat Expertise for +4 AC
