1 shot, Serenity Hollow (Inactive)

Game Master Chyrone

"Prepare yourselves." Jurgan shouts at the group. He draws a series of runes in the air then extending his arms wide slaps his hands together completing the spell.

I will cast haste on the party

Uke's eyes grow.
"That....you can call upon the spirits of the wind? Amazing!"

Uke swings his katana at the demon wolf, after a 5ft step.
Katana, hasted: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 11 + 1 = 13 Dmg, 2-handed: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Katana, hasted: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 11 + 1 = 22 Dmg, 2-handed: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Katana, hasted: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 6 + 1 = 21 Dmg, 2-handed: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

His first swing is an utter failure, but he cross slashes the demon wolf to death, then another for good measure through decapitation as it was about to keel over.

Kemnon draws from his belt a small scroll, reads it, then touches Jurgan's shoulder.

Jurgan gets the feeling as if his mental focus has become stronger.
For the next 7 rounds, Jurgan has a +1 bonus on CL checks to overcome SR.
=======================================

Lady Kemnon, round 2

Thandir (who's the one to bot?)
-------------
Alice Kemnon
-------------
Jurgan & Belegar
Lord Kemnon & Uke

Thandir looks up at the airborne demoness.
"Wicked creature, come down here and face a righteous duel!"

He draws a chakram from his belt and throws it at her.
Fling: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19 Slashy: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
The thing goes up....and goes down before coming close to lady Kemnon.
===============

Will finish update when i'm home.

Alice Kemnon draws an imaginary rune before herself.

Lord Kemnon & Uke

spellcraft: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Belegar looks up at the creature and casts glitterdust over her.
DC15 Fortitude save

A flash of sparkling dust particles descends upon lady Kemnon,
Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

"Ah! Why you.....", and she is suddenly blinded.

Jurgan
Lord Kemnon & Uke

I have been looking at blindness and the fly skill - half speed is tricky for flying creatures and the -4 makes it worse. I'm hoping we might bring her down?

Jurgan?

Jurgan flicks a pea sized piece of guano in the direction of the newly created demon.

fireball

SR: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 1 = 9
fireball (specialized): 8d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 1, 5, 3, 3, 4, 1) = 23

He then watches as his fireball fizzles out in the face of the creature.

Uke smiles at the explosion of fire after Jurgan triggers his fireball, only to then see the fire flow around lady Kemnon.

Lord Kemnon produces a scroll from a wrist sheathe, and cites the corresponding words. It is a something unfamiliar to both Jurgan and Belegar.

As he finished, he touches Belegar's sword, which seems to start vibrating quickly. He looks at him and nods.
"Try hitting her."

In effect, for the next 7 rounds, your sword can make a ranged attack, with an effective range of 15 feet as it sends a wave of force from your blade. It has 2 range increments. This deals 1d8+4 force dmg.

Uke scratches his chin.
"Are you saying he can hit flying things?"

Kemnon nods.
"Something of my own design i've developed over the years. I call it 'Zephyrous weapon'. It enables the weapon to send a wave of harmful force at the target."
=============================

Lady Kemnon, round 3

Thandir (who's the one to bot?)
-------------
Alice Kemnon (blinded)
-------------
Jurgan & Belegar
Lord Kemnon & Uke

Botting.

Thandir grabs a second chakram, tossing #2 at lady Kemnon.
Tossing, haste: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 6 + 1 = 23 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8, it hits, but the damage sustained is minimal.

3 dmg.
-----------------
Fly check to hover, blind penalty, DC 15: 1d20 + 10 - 5 ⇒ (18) + 10 - 5 = 23

Lady Kemnon comes to a sudden stop, as she gets blinded.
She casts a spell in preparation.

Jurgan points two fingers at the demoness while drawing a rune in the air with the other hand. From his fingers a stream of fire flies at the creature.

SR: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 6 + 1 = 25
Scorching ray, haste: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 4 + 1 = 20
dmg: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 2) = 13

This time, Jurgan's mind infuses his magic with more focus, penetrating lady Kemnon's natural magic resistance. The damage is partially absorbed, as only a slight bit of skin was singed.

Since scorching ray deals 4d6 dmg.. :P: 1d6 ⇒ 4
7 fire dmg to lady Kemnon.

Belegar
Lord Kemnon & Uke

Belegar looks at Kemnon, looks at his sword, shrugs and rolls his shoulders.
Then he swings his sword in great arcs toward the flying foe.
attack, good-aligned, magic: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11
damage with celestial blood: 2d6 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (2, 3) + 7 + (4) = 16

attack, good-aligned, magic: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17
damage with celestial blood: 2d6 + 7 + 1d6 ⇒ (1, 2) + 7 + (6) = 16

Unused to the spell, Belegar's attacks are wild.
FFS!

Dmg is spell based, d8+4.

Lady Kemnon's defences are ample to divert the 2nd strike from hitting her.

Lord Kemnon clamps his cane underneath an arm and takes a vial from his belt, and a hand crossbow from a holder on his hip.

Uke lounges, waiting for something to come down.
=====================================

Lady Kemnon, round 4

Thandir tosses another chakram.
Fling, haste: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 1 = 17 Dmg: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5, which also comes down before hitting her.
-------------
Alice Kemnon (-12) looks over the group, smiles with malicious mischief, then starts casting.

Below the group of 4, the large 10 by 10ft area hole appears.
Belegar, reflex DC 17 to jump away.

Reflex Lord Kemnon, haste, arcane ward pfe: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 5 + 1 + 1 = 21
Ref Thandir, haste, arcane ward pfe: 1d20 + 7 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 1 + 1 = 14
Ref Uke, haste, arcane ward pfe: 1d20 + 3 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 1 + 1 = 13

Lord Kemnon quickly jumps away, but Thandir and Uke fall 30ft down, taking Falling dmg: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 4) = 11
She then flies down towards Jurgan.
-------------
Jurgan & Belegar
Lord Kemnon & Uke

reflex: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Standing in the pit, Belegar tries another spell on the Lady.
Blindness: DC15 to save.

Will, prot from good: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 2 = 28
Lady Kemnon shuts her eyes close just before the explosion of light goes off.

"Trying something again, elf?"

Jurgan
Lord Kemnon & Uke

Lord Kemnon looks over to Jurgan.
"A moment, sir dwarf, hold on."

Kemnon takes a scroll from his belt, (the guy's got stuff) and casts from it. He steps closer to Jurgan and touches his shoulder.

Jurgan feels a burning sensation within him, as if his fire will burn extra bright.

In effect: You have a 50% chance for 7 rounds, to 1/2 Lady Kemnon's natural fire resistance with your fire spells.

Jurgan

'Should have used it earlier!

Jurgan watches the demoness fly towards him and he quickly casts a spell to dissuade her and then steps back.

cast defensively, shocking grasp DC 17: 1d20 + 6 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 4 = 21
shocking grasp touch attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24
dmg: 5d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 4, 6, 5) = 24
SR: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 1 = 27

"I was unaware she'd be this resilient to fire, sir dwarf.", Kemnon responds.

Crit confirm?: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 Extra if so: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 4, 6, 2) = 17
Not confirmed.

Lady kemnon gets a shock treatment, as Jurgan touches her stretched out arm. The latter noticing she has reasonable resistance to electricity as well.

She grits her teeth in discomfort.

Uke sheathes his katana and stands up to start climbing.
=====================================

Lady Kemnon, round 5

Thandir follows Uke's example.
------------------
Lady Alice Kemnon (-21) casts her own version,
Cast defensive: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21 red electricity crackling at her hand.
She moves 5ft closer to Jurgan, reaching out at him.

Touch, height advantage: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 9 + 1 = 28 Red lightning: 5d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 1, 6, 5) = 20

The electricity makes Jurgan's muscles spasm frantically, and some of his hairs, including some of his beard, stand up thereafter.
--------------------
Belegar & Jurgan
Lord Kemnon & Uke

I return from Hell (JRTC) only to find that the party is in a different kind of hell

Uke has rope, but no grappling hook. I'll take an improvised version, if you can figure one out

Belegar swings his sword once more, trying to hit with Lord Kemnon's strange magic.

attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15
damage: 1d8 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 4 + (5) = 11
The 1d6 is my totem power: +1d6 vs evil outsiders

haste attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
damage: 1d8 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (5) + 4 + (4) = 13
The 1d6 is my totem power: +1d6 vs evil outsiders

Current attack rolls against her: 1, 7, 5, 6...

Wouldn't have mattered, though. 30ft pit, and Lady Kemnon had swooped down towards Jurgan already. You could, say, be the one retrieving Uke's rope, him then doing a makeshift grappling hook.

Assuming the above is to your liking,

Uke nods to Belegar.
"See if you can find the silk rope in my pack, i can tie it to my katana."

Belegar retrieving both the katana from the sheathe and the rope from the pack, Uke ties the two firmly together, then looks up.

Upwards throw, haste: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 2 = 18
Uke's katana goes up...in an arc onto a spot just over the edge of the pit.

*SNIKT*, the katana falls point first into the ground, providing some stability for anyone climbing, such craftsmanship went into making it so sharp.

It's no knotted rope, but a DC 10 climb check should do it. You'd roll for every time moving up, thus 2 checks for a full round of climbing.

Jurgan
Lord Kemnon

Added a pit to the map, to aide my memory.

Jurgan steps back and snaps his stubby fingers three times then draws a rune in the air. Instantly 2d4 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7 more images of Jurgan appear. Each mirrors the others action perfectly.

"What the? GET OVER HERE!" the chorus of voices shouts at the others.

mirror image so I have Jurgan and 7 other copies. Next round I will be image 1d8 ⇒ 7 to determine hit purposes.

GET OVER HERE!

Roger sir dwarf.

Jurgan steps away quickly after getting hit. A quick casting later, and eight Jurgans occupy his space, as he calls for his comrades to hurry their @sses up.

Lord Kemnon enhances his cane blade, slashing at his wife.
Cane blade, haste: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 1 = 14 Dmg, acid: 1d6 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (5) + 3 + (6) = 14
His wife dodges the strike with ease.
=======================================

Lady Kemnon, round 6

Thandir (some climb checks please)

Climb: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (19) - 1 = 18

Climb: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (17) - 1 = 16

Thandir climbed as fast as he could given his armor, his faith driving him every onward.

Thandir is now half way up.

Thandir braces himself and steadily advances upwards.
-----------------
Lady Kemnon (-21) hovers 5ft away from her husband.
Rt: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 Fire: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 5, 2, 6) = 15, fire burns upon lord Kemnon's chest.

------------------
Belegar & Jurgan
Lord Kemnon & Uke

Thandir should be hasted so he gets an additional 30 ft to movement

Belegar shakes his head and draws upon his spell kenning to make the climb an easy one. Then he scoots up the pit.

Spider climb, enhance with haste for 50ft of movement, then move action out of the pit.

Both Belegar and Thandir have climbed out of the pit.

Jurgan
Lord Kemnon & Uke

The Jurgans point eight sets of fingers at the demoness once again drawing a familiar rune in the air with their other hands. A stream of fire forms into a fan as it flies towards the Lady Kemnon.

SR: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 6 + 1 = 21
Scorching ray, haste: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 4 + 1 = 16
dmg: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 6, 2) = 14

Jurgan is copy number 1d8 ⇒ 3 this turn.

% of reduced fire resist, 51+ is good: 1d100 ⇒ 41

Jurgan's fire ray hits lady Kemnon, yet despite a direct hit, the damage is almost at minimal, due to her demonic resistance to fire.

Lady Kemnon at -25.

Lord Kemnon steps up to slash away with his cane blade again.
1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 9 + 1 = 22 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6,

1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 9 + 1 = 28
1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 1 = 14, yet this time she deflects his weapon with her sharp nails.

Climb Uke: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 - 4 = 5
Climb Uke: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 - 4 = 18
Uke climbs up 10ft.
===================================

Lady Kemnon, round 7

Thandir
------------------
Lady Kemnon (-25)
------------------
Belegar & Jurgan
Lord Kemnon & Uke

Swift action fervor for divine favor

2d20 ⇒ (17, 15) = 32
Hit: 17 + 13 = 30
Good Aligned Damage: 2d12 + 16 ⇒ (10, 10) + 16 = 36

”KORADA SEES YOUR WICKEDNESS!” Surging out of the pit, Thandir swung his axe, leaving a glowing aftertrail behind it.

1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18
Lady Kemnon tries to block his attack, but it does not work, she takes a brutal hit, and she is looking close to breaking point.

You were saying something of 'another hell'? You're built as a murder machine. :P
-----------------
Lady Kemnon (-61) hovers 5ft up into the air and, looking at Jurgan's copies, casts another spell.

Create pit.

Jurgan, DC 17 reflex save please.
----------------------
Belegar & Jurgan
Lord Kemnon & Uke

Belegar swings his sword in great arcs, hoping to finally master Kemnon's enchantment.
attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23
damage: 1d8 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (8) + 4 + (5) = 17

haste attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15
damage: 1d8 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (8) + 4 + (1) = 13

Jurgan reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Jurgan falls down the pit but immediately his ring of feather fall activates as he gently floats to the bottom.

As he floats down he uses the stored magic of his focus item and tosses pea sized object into the air above the flying demoness. Once again the creatures spell resistance proves to be too strong to overcome.

Going to cast a fireball so that it explodes above Lady Kemnon but doesn't touch the party.

SR: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 1 = 14
Fireball (specialized): 8d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 2, 4, 6, 2, 1, 3) = 25
overcome Fire resist 51+ is good: 1d100 ⇒ 1

You my wish to hold onto that spell slot.

As Jurgan suddenly drops into the pit, Belegar sends a wave of force at lady Kemnon, which is -just enough- to hit her.

With a sudden scream, she falls down to the ground.

Combat ....over...??
=======================================================

Lord Kemnon walks over with a strong mix of feelings.

What will you do?

Breathing heavily Thandir planted the but of his axe into the ground. ”Do you live?! If so give me a sign so that you may seek redemption.”

Good luck with redeeming a soul corrupted like that.
Bodies of outsiders are formed of the soul.

"Now that her soul is freed from this corruption, perhaps we can guide it back toward her soul's true destination?"

Thandir has 0 ranks in any knowledge skill. All he has to go on is blind faith and stubborness

Kemnon looks up at Belegar,

"Any suggestions? Because that sounds like it needs a miracle.
And miracles don't come so easi-" .... !!!

The ground around you begins to shake violently, almost knocking you off your feet. The booming malicious voice sounds from all around you.

"Well, well. It's not too much a surprise, given only such a short time as a demoness. Still, the mistress is most displeased with you mortals. Maybe i should have a little fun of my own."

Something big, REALLY BIG, is starting to take shape some 50ft away, and it may not take too long for materialization to complete.

The portal is still open, but it seems to flicker at times.

Kemnon picks up the form of his wife and holds her in his arms.
"The portal must have become unstable. Quickly, we must stabilize it before whatever is coming arrives!"

There are 5 rounds before -IT- materializes.
Given the portal was established before, CL check to stabilize it is at DC 20. All arcane casters can contribute by making a CL check DC 13, which will function as an aid-other to the main CL check.

Sir Jurgan, would you do the honors of making the main CL checks?

Checks Lord Kemnon: 5d20 ⇒ (18, 2, 5, 13, 18) = 56 3 successes.

CL check: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
CL check: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
CL check: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24
CL check: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
CL check: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Thandir glared at the rising darkness. ”Korada!” his voice boomed, causing his axe to shimmer Scroll used for a fixed butchering axe ”Give me STRENGTH!” Bull’s Strength

CLChk: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
CLChk: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
CLChk: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
CLChk: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
CLChk: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
