GM Tyranius Giantslayer (Inactive)

Game Master Tyranius

"Ah, resting is it? I can do that," Wren says, looking at the dragging yakkenhorde. "Shall we rest? I would do that."

”I’m ready ter slay more giants!” Kraygan flexes, but does not charge off like one might expect. ”However, until we find some way ter keep th’ dragon out of th’ fight, I ain’t sure I’m ready fer th’ Tyrant. I think we need ter look ‘round a little more.”

No sleep til Brooklyn. Let’s hit another dark area downstairs. I’ve placed a big green arrow near a door on the 2nd floor.

Wren follows KrayKray to the next section. He offers Alysendra an invisible look of sympathy, but is unsure the woman can see it.

"What are we looking for? Allies? Gold? Lunch?" Alys mutters in exasperation. "The object of our mission is literally on the other side of that door, and we're going to poke around in his closets instead?" She blushes, realizing she's let her emotions too close to the surface.

"Sorry. It's just... we don't need to kill every giant here. Just one - the Storm Tyrant. Yes, he's got a dragon - who doesn't want to work with him, who's controlled by a magical orb. Maybe we can get the orb, or block the control, or something to even the odds. But why risk raising the alarm and having the whole place come down on us in the meantime, just to look around? We can hole up and rest, regain our strength, and then return to finish this fight."

Alysendra skulks off around the stairs to try and get a better angle down the hallway to the southeast. Though the angle is not enough to see far down the hallway and the distance is just to great. For all she knows the Storm tyrant could still be there as the group argues ways to get rid of a dragon.

Sounds like there is a bit of confusion on where the group wants to go.

"I don't know how well it will work, but if we can identify the orb, I will try to sneak around the giant and steal it. But I don't want to just walk in there and get toasted, either."

Wren shakes his head at Farin and then looks at Alysendra.

”Fine, Alysendra has made the call. Let’s do this!” Wren looks ready to follow Aly to the doom that awaits him. That he also waits for.

Actually, I was advocating just resting somewhere, then doing this...

Farin gets ready with checking his weapons and potions, and refills his vest with a potion of invisibility.

So resting then checking the hallway? Not resting and checking the hallway? or not resting and retreating to the 2nd floor?

Resting somewhere safer than this room, and then coming back to this room to tackle the storm tyrant.

Wren follows Alysendra, to rest and regroup then return, revengefully.

Thanks! I'll get a post up thiis evening as it can be a bit hefty and I am at work.

Heading back down to the engine level Wren replicates his hidden mansion for a peaceful nights rest before facing what could possibly be the Storm Tyrant himself. A mighty storm brews and cracks against the castle throughout the night. Thunder and lightning unlike anything you have seen in your life.

Though the group finds the night uneventful they also find themselves tossing and turning in anticipation of the unknown. This giant has already caused so much harm and destruction. While you have stopped an untold amount you obviously could not stop it all as this war machine hovers through the countryside.

Morning comes with silence of the grim determination. You all may not survive what is to come. You know that you failing could mean the death of hundreds of thousands. Slowly but surely you head back into the Storm Tyrant's planning room. The room is in shambles as desks and chests are upturned and destroyed in anger. The Storm Tyrant is not present but looks as if he returned to find his stuff missing.

Any buffs or anything before you peer into the hallway?

Magics cast @ Wren: Mage Armor, Overland Flight, Moment of Prescience, Extended Heroism. Extended Heroisms to Jorgan, Farin, & Kraygan

Wren waits invisibly and impatiently for the yakkenhorde to be ready to fight. He thinks that today will be his last day and is looking forward to it.

At least, my stain will be gone.

heroes' feast for breakfast, followed by scrying on the Storm Tyrant to see where he is. Assuming he's where we think he is close by, then communal protection from evil and communal resist energy (fire, electricty, cold) 30 on everyone, true seeing and freedom of movement on me, shield of faith +4 on the yaks and me. Then summon Penthae.

The group prepares as they feast in the morning before heading off to their fates. Alysendra scrys the giant tyrant. She finds him down the same hallway as before. he seems to be concentrating greatly out the window as the castle glides across the land. Swooping past him outside is a gargantuan old red dragon. Standing to his left and right respectable are twin cloud giants.

Volstus Will save vs Scrying: 1d20 + 21 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 21 + 5 - 2 = 29

His voice thunders. "Nalbia, Nalbur. My Captains. I entrust you will protect me and this castle from those pests while I complete this." the pair nod as they offer each other a glance. Just then Alysendra's connection is lost, cut off.

=================================================================

Reaching the room and heading down the hallway you find such the view. Guarding Volstus are the twins. One wielding a massive bow and an axe while the other has a small bird-like air elemental circling around her shoulders. "My liege, they are here." Volstus turns his head, barely giving you a thought. "Be done with them quickly." His voice is filled with anger. "They ahve caused me enough setback and grief. Make them suffer greatly for it." Thunder cracks outside, nearly sounding like the walls of the castle are breaking down.

Go ahead and roll your temp Hp from Heroes' feast in you next post along with any other buffs you wish to have prepared.

Knowing the final battle was just ahead, Kraygan briefly draws Aggrimosh to enlarge himself and Jorgan, then offers up a few toasts with some magical brew, even giving some potions to Haggis.

Upon seeing the enemy he starts to give a battlecry, but halfway through it becomes a bone-rattling belch.

”BARAK TRUBBBbbbuuUUUuurrrRRRrrrpppPP!!!”

Kraygan:
Potion of fly
Potion of displacement
Half a keg of beer

Haggis:
Potion of protection from cold
Potion of protection from fire
Potion of barkskin
Flying ointment
The other half of a keg of beer

Added HP: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

Before approaching the battle, Farin uses Heightened Awareness and castes Haste from his scroll.

He also takes a sip from his vest to become invisible.

Farin draws both blades and moves to the closest window well, waiting for the twins to pass.

Invisible Farin sneaks around the corner of the window, hiding and waiting for the twins to pass. Nalbia, standing on the far side of Volstus casts a spell as she begins to blink in and out between Planes. Farin watches as she draws a deadly looking wand in the shape of a lightning bolt.

Rearing back, Jorgan begins to summon help for this fight. "Bout time. Been waiting a long time fer this. Ready Cousin?"

Nalbur grips a gargantuan looking battleaxe in his hands as he readies it to protect the Storm Tyrant.

Round 1

"Those guys look angry."

Still invisible, Wren draws his metamagic rod of quicken, casting Haste on the good guys, then casting [i]Glitterdust on the two giants. DC 22 Will.

He floats out of line of sight.

Haste 1/17 rounds. +1 yadayadayada. You know the deal.

Kraygan rides Haggis up the steps, stopping just shy of the top and hurling his hammer at the closest frost giant.

Penthae begins her bard song, singing the lament for the fallen heroes that she composed in advance of this battle. It tells of the heroic actions of the PCs who gave their all to save the land.

move action: inspire courage +2

She then casts invisibility on Alysendra.

Alysendra uses her displacement special ability as her rod to cast a quickened ironskin, then moves forward.

Kraygan pushes Haggis into the hallway as he hurls the Hammer of Thunderbolts across the expanse. The heavy hammer crushes into the cloud giant, Nalbur's chest, cracking a rib and little more. he reflexively reaches a hand down to the bruised section.

Nalbur Glitterdust DC 22 Will: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16
Volstus Glitterdust DC 22 Will: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (3) + 21 = 24

The dust gets in the cloud giant's eyes as Volstus continues to concentrate on the orb in his hands. Storm clouds form instantly outside as rain begins to fall. It increases in intensity as it comes in through the holes in the roof and walls. A loud crack of thunder is heard.

@All- Need a DC 23 Fort Save or be deafened for 1d4x10 minutes

The Storm of Vengeance begins to form in the building itself. Completely covering the room and most of the hallway. "Vengeance will be mine. You will regret coming here." The thunderous voice bounces off the walls.

1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 10 + 2 = 28 Fort

Wren cringes, and wishes he could have gone deaf from the thunderclap. Might be better than the incessant yak and dwarf farts that he's been hearing in his sleep for the past year.

Fort DC23: 1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 16 + 2 = 19 Of course...

Alysendra jumps as the crack of thunder ruptures her eardrums. The last sound I'll ever hear? she muses, the memory of Penthae's celestial encouragement already fading.

No more bard song for me.

Fort DC23: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Farin is up.

Kraygan Fort save: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (15) + 26 = 41 plus dwarf bonuses as well probably
Haggis Fort Save: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17

Having trained with a lifetime of air biscuits, Kraygan withstands the thunderclap easily. Despite similar exposure, often right behind his head, Haggis, unfortunately, does not.

Not sure what happened to Farin. I will DMPC tonight if nothing by then, I was just trying to avoid it as it is the final boss and all. Plus this fight can be quite tough.

Sorry - between work and taxes, this week is kicking my butt.

DC 23 Fort Save: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27

Covering his ears in just the nick of time, Farin holds still, staying invisible.

Stealth: 1d20 + 32 + 40 ⇒ (13) + 32 + 40 = 85

Alysendra retrieves and drinks her potion of remove blindness/deafness.

Penthae continues her bard song, casts cure serious wounds, and readies to move towards anyone who is wounded (readying a move action to fly to them.

The thunderous cacophonous deafens Alysendra. As the world around her goes absolutely silent she grabs a potion from her sack and drinks it. With a popping sound her head clears and the sound of thunder returns. Though much to her dismay the first thing she is able to hear once again is an air biscuit from Kraygan.

Farin continues to hide and wait while Nalbia's mocking laughter echoes throughout the chamber. Kraygan's eyes go wild at the laughter as it gets in his head.

@Kraygan- DC 20 Will save vs Confusion.

Jorgan's spell completes as he hangs back in the hallway. A large multi-armed girallon tears down the hallway, leaping at Nalbur.

Bite; Charge: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 10 + 2 = 26

Nalbur's axe breaks into the wall as his blinded rage keeps him from connecting with the rampaging girallon breathing down his face.

Battle Axe vs Girallon AC 18; vital strike; PA: 1d20 + 29 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 29 - 4 = 35

Jorgan immediately works at summoning some more resistance.

Kraygan looks at the laughing giant in genuine confusion - not magical confusion. ”What’s so funny? Besides yer face?”

He was ready to charge in, but a giant gorilla now stands in his way. ”Jorgan, if yer gunna invite friends, make sure they ain’t in me way!”

Doing something a little odd here. Throwing hammer, then quickdrawing longbow to finish full attack with arrows. Hammer returns right before next turn, so it shouldn’t interfere.

Staggering Critical Feat: if Critical is successful the target is Staggered

Round 2

Still invisible, Wren floats out of line of sight, effect and whatever and begins a full round cast.

SM VII.

Jorgan and Wren both begin summoning aid while Kraygan barely shakes off the confusing laughter. "That was the furthest I could get it!" Jorgan yells back. "This damn castle is too big..."

Kraygan's flurry of attacks on Nalbur stun the cloud giant as he is just getting to recollect his surroundings after being blinded by elf dust.

Volstus, continuing to concentrate into his orb berates the cloud giant. "Keep in mind you now serve me Nalbur... Do better at keeping them away!" The storm escaping from the orb grows in intensity inside the large circular room and hallway. Acid rain begins to fall, burning everything around it.

Acid Damage (Everyone): 1d6 ⇒ 5

Volstus Concentration check DC 24: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (11) + 16 = 27
Jorgan Concentration check DC 20: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (20) + 17 = 37

Alysendra (122/122; 3 Temp HP; displacement)(Penthae -5; deaf)

Alysendra flies forward to get batter view, and then calls upon Desna's aid. A whirling wall of starknives appears in a line down the center of the corridor, slashing everything in their path. She fervently hopes this will disrupt the giants' concentration, since they now have only half the space they need.

blade barrier damage, Ref DC 23: 13d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 4, 6, 2, 4, 1, 4, 4, 1, 1, 1, 6) = 44

GM SN: So, the Reflex save lets them move out of the barrier's path, to one side or another, but with their size I'm thinking that will at least squeeze them? Although, if Desna smiles, they won't be able to avoid it at all...

Penthae continues her bard song, trying to keep it effective through her deafness. She maintains her held cure serious wounds and readies an action to fly to anyone who is wounded and heal them.

deafness fail%, 20+ suceeds: 1d100 ⇒ 71

I am getting a little lost on the map, but I assume the icon next to me is friendly. If not, I'll take a completely different action.

Farin uses his position to lean out and snipe attack the staggered giant (Yellow, who I assume is Nalbur), hoping to maybe finish him off.

Ranged Attack, +1 returning dagger, Haste, Heroism, Inspired, vs giant, invisible (ignore dex): 1d20 + 22 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 22 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 49
Damage: 1d3 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 6d6 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + (2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 1) = 23

In addition, if hit, +2 Str Dmg + DI: Hampered: All of the target's speeds are reduced by half (to a minimum of 5 feet). In addition, the target cannot take a 5-foot step.

Returning to the shadows, Farin tries to disappear.

Stealth, sniping: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (20) + 24 = 44

That is Jorgan's Girallon next to you Farin.

Alysendra creates an immovable curtain of spinning death along the hallway that slices into the trio of giants.

Nalbur Reflex DC 23: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (12) + 16 = 28
Volstus Reflex DC 23: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 22
Nalbia Reflex DC 23: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15

A dagger strikes from the shadows as Farin's blade slices across the cloud giant's leg. Volstus instantly loses his concentration on the orb as the storm begins to flow back into the sphere.

Nalbia leans in to the Storm Tyrant. "We can't fight in here." She lays a soothing hand on Volstus' arm, one of compassion that doesn't seem to be met in return. He responds coldly. "Go I'll be right behind you."

Nalbia drops from the break in the wall as she slowly begins to float to the ground outside.

Nalbur steps out of the path of the spinning starknives, dropping his battleaxe and drawing his bow. His movement hampered Nalbur calls down to his sister. "I'll hold them off for a moment more. Get Galescream here."

Round 3

1d20 + 17 ⇒ (8) + 17 = 25 Concentration vs. DC 22

Wren summons a big angry air elemental and adds it to the combat, quickly explaining what is what.

The elemental will fly to the lead giant and, while flying above it (not sure how high the ceilings are), give it a good thumping.

1d20 + 23 ⇒ (7) + 23 = 30 to hit;
2d8 + 9 ⇒ (3, 3) + 9 = 15 damage.

With his standard action used, Wren will stay out of sight, ready for what comes next.

Kraygan catches the Hammer of Thunderbolts as it comes back and instantly hurls it again, following up with more arrows.

”I’m comin fer you next Tyrant!” He cries.

Challenge on Storm Tyrant, but still attacking Nalbur.

Hammer of Thunderbolts: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (20) + 27 = 47
Damage + Bane/Acid: 2d6 + 15 + 2d6 + 1d6 ⇒ (4, 2) + 15 + (2, 1) + (5) = 29

Damage + bane/acid: 1d8 + 12 + 2d6 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 12 + (5, 2) + (5) = 27
Iterative 3: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

Haste attack: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (13) + 22 = 35
Damage + bane/acid: 1d8 + 12 + 2d6 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 12 + (4, 4) + (4) = 25

The Hammer of Thunderbolts flashes across the expanse and crashes with a grotesque crunching sound as it breaks Nalbur's face. As the hammer hits a powerful clap of thunder erupts stunning everyone within 90 feet.

@Everyone except Jorgan and Wren need to make a DC 15 Fort save or stunned for 1 round.

Volstus Fort save: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (2) + 22 = 24
Girallon: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19

Jorgan summons forth a second girallon as the first thunders across the hallway on all limbs. As it reaches Volstus it beats its chest.

AoO vs Girallon AC 18; PA: 1d20 + 38 - 6 ⇒ (13) + 38 - 6 = 45
Damage: 3d6 + 21 + 12 ⇒ (6, 6, 4) + 21 + 12 = 49

The girallon is sliced across the chest and hands as it swings at the Storm Tyrant.

Claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30
Confirm Crit: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
Damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

The girallon scratches Volstus across his abdomen.

Nalbur falls to the ground, dead on the spot. Wren's air elemental floats through the air as Volstus is left undefended. The air swoops over the Storm Tyran'ts face as his hair and clothes flutter. "You bring forth an air elemental against the Storm Tyrant! Naive fools."

Moving to the window Volstu's voice carries across the winds. "AKAZERTATH! COME TO ME...." What sounds like thunder claps seemingly come closer with lightning speed from outside. Volstus leaps from the balcony. Provokes from Air elemental. He disappears from sight as a massive wall of red appears, catching the Storm Tyrant as he falls. "I will tear this building apart around your ears." Lightning crackles around his fists and falcata.

Girallon AoO: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11

”Damned yellow-bellied chicken!!” Kraygan roars as the Tyrant jumps away.

Have we seen any sign of the dragon orb on Volstus? Do we know if he needs to actually physically possess it to control it?

Fort save: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (9) + 16 = 25
Penthae Fort save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

I can't tell which token is who... and what's the little green one? And are the controls of this castle still where the Storm tyrant was?

Alysendra watches the giants jump out the window, and sees the dragon, and then casts protection from fire on herself. She then uses her hasted fly speed and dimensional hop, if necessary, to get to where the castle controls are.

Penthae flutters forward, stunned by the thunderclap.

@Kraygan- You didn't see the orb in his hands but it very well could have been stowed away in his pack.

@Alysendra- The two enemies are outside the castle. There is lots of summoned aid in the hallway. One Air elemental and two Girallons. I have marked friendlies as yellow. Volstus and his dragon mount are purple while Nalbia is Red. The little green guy is an air elemental with Nalbia.
