Insane Season 5-6 Run (Inactive)

Game Master ScorchedOne

Shaya takes out a dagger and throws it at the wizard. "I'm not good in a fight, sorry!"

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16 +1 size, +1 extra Dex
Damage: 1d4 - 2 ⇒ (2) - 2 = 0 so 1 non lethal

-2 to strength means str8, that's -1 adjustment to damage. So, 1lethal.

I'm also under reduce person, for another -2

oh, darnit!

Saya frowns , seeing the effectiveness of the wizard's magic.

Steeling herself, she remembers her training and drawing quickly and efficiently, sends two arrows towards the magicuser's heart...

Attack, Flurry of Arrows 1: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10
Attack, Flurry of Arrows 2: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

...but the constant movement distracts her aim.

Sigh....

Acro: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23
Bluff: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
Melee: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23
Confirm: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

The small being tumbles its way into the middle of the crowd, where it confounds Saya with its fancy footwork and flourishes.

The larger enters the murder-hole and swings at Mivvy, just barely missing a crucial artery.

Mivvy, Virog, and Skaf are up.

Doing her best to smile away her wounds, Mivvy lashes out at the foe before her.
piercing attack w. flanking: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18
rapier damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

crit confirm if it hits: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28
potential crit damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

If only PFS did exploding crits!

With nowhere to move, Skaf swipes at the interloper in front of him.

sickle: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18
damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4

Hang on, I was hit for ten damage?
Scrap those rolls: Mivvy is lying on the floor on -6 hit points

Virog steps over to Mivvy, crouches slightly and casts cure light wounds.

Cure light wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

"You are not for the promised land yet, friend."

Mivvy was struck and is now lying on the floor at +2 hit points.

The holy caster moves up and aids the AC of his ally. The wizard sees that Virog can heal, and decides that Virog would make a marvelous magic missile target.

Aid: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16
Missile: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 Damage to Virog

Shaya and Saya are up.

Saya began to get frustrated at her failure to take down the slippery wizard, but then remembered something her master said to her , ...the mobile target is an opportunity, as test of focus...of purpose....

Eyes narrowing , Says watched the wizard's movement....then fired...

Attack, Flurry of Arrows 1: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14
Attack, Flurry of Arrows 2: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Damage, Arrow 1...maybe: 1d8 ⇒ 8

The wizard appears to have an arrow in him. He gasps in pain, the wound a serious one. Hate filled eyes look at Saya, cursing under his breath.

Shaya still.

As she has a target within reach, Shaya draws her rapier and stabs at the Aspis.
Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Damage: 1d4 - 2 ⇒ (2) - 2 = 0
Welp.

Shaya does not poke anything.

Being as he has confused Saya, the shorter being tries to stab his flat footed opponent. It fortunately (for Saya) misses, while his larger companion turns from assaulting the downed Mivvy to the small Shaya. Assuming that 17 hits as it is indicated, it's 9 damage to Shaya.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
Attack 2: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Mivvy, Virog, and Skaf up

And Shaya is down at -4, but with a cure moderate wounds potion in the backpack.

Also, can I get a casting defensively check from Virog? I just now noticed that he cast that CLW in a threatened area.

I didn't realize that I was threatened. I'm sorry. I lost track of the maps for a moment.
casting defensively: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

Virog will then attempt to cast another cure light wounds on Shaya, casting defensively.

Casting Defensively: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
CLW (if successful): 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

That was not as successful as I wanted it to be, percentile to determine remaining actions
%%: 1d100 ⇒ 83

Right, I will draw the cure moderate potion off of Shaya's body. Regrettably provoking an attack of opportunity.

Groggily, I stand move action, provokes AOO if it hasn't already been used

If that goes okay... I swing for the foe before me.

rapier attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22
damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

The smaller being attempts to stab Virog as the latter picks up a potion.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19
Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1

Mivvy stands, and the larger gentleman tries to swing at her. Fortunately he misses and she doesn't go down again like a sack of grain.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Which foe? The rogue or fighter? Rogue is in the middle of all 5 of you and fighter is in the hole above.

The rogue: trying to take advantage of flanking bonus (already in attack roll).

Skaf swings at the rogue in front of him again.

sickle: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2

The wizard hobbles away, crippled badly. The divine individual continues supporting his ally, this time hoping to aid his attacks.

Aid: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

Shaya and Saya are up, understanding the bird is currently out.

Opps, sorry guys, my turn...

Saya smiles in satisfaction as the wizard withdraws, turning her attention to the two larger of the brigands...

Attack, Flurry of Arrows 1: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Attack, Flurry of Arrows 2: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Oh boy....

Rogue Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Rogue Confirm: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
Rogue Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1

The rogue-ish one tries to stab Saya, who has a bow out and is firing in threatened area, and barely misses a vital spot.

Sword Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
Sword Confirm: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
Damage: 2d8 + 4 ⇒ (2, 5) + 4 = 11

His buddy however nearly cuts Mivvy right in half for the audacity of standing up. Unless she can change that...

desperate attempt to riposte a very high roll: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24

I fall down again, near death -9 hit points

Trying not to get frustrated, Saya realizes that the close quarters makes it unwise to attempt to use her bow.

She'd only just avoided the full brunt of the rogue's slash, so she coils and sends her foot towards the brigand's face...

Unarmed attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Sigh....

Due to a clerical error on my part, Saya please re-take your turn with the knowledge the rogue is down. Saya, heal that 1 hp. Virog is also up, as is Skaf.

Did the fighter move up to replace the rogue? If he did then I will continue to attack with my sickle. If he hasn't moved up yet then I will use my elemental blast. I just don't want to risk an AoO with everyone going down around me.

sickle attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16 +4 for elemental blast, ranged touch
sickle damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3 OR blast damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Fighter is still in doorway. Takes 6.

Virog will 5' step to Mivvy and force feed her the potion of Cure Moderate wounds. Given that this is the only available space, this now puts me in the center and provokes an attack of opportunity.

Cure Moderate Wounds potion: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (1, 4) + 3 = 8

If he is still standing after the AoO, Virog will gesture frustratedly with the light crossbow he is holding.

Anyone got a t-shirt re-roll?

I have a folio reroll (+5 stars), but I don't think I can use it for the potion. If ScorchedOne is willing to let me do that, it would be a lovely benefit, but it's definitely a deviancy from the norm. As much as I don't like our luck these last few rounds, I can't really ask for that.

Reroll is for a d20, sorry.

No need to apologize. I expected no less

With a grim smile, Saya sees the rogue fall, so she concentrates her attacks on the looming fighter in the entrance way...

Flurry of Arrows 1: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
Flurry of Arrows 2: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

Damage, Arrow 1: 1d8 ⇒ 1
Damage, Arrow 2: 1d8 ⇒ 6

Reroll is for a d20, sorry.

I've never had a re-roll: had no idea. You live and learn.

Sure, character folio and t-shirt are some of the most common. They're great.

Actually, just realised that I do. I've got the Grey maidens tee and the Paizo Golem tee; I thought it was just faction tees that got a re-roll.

Sorry, yesterday was hectic.
AoO: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

The swordsman slices into Virog, it is not a brutal cut, but it seems enough.

The fighter looks rather wounded so his buddy decides to patch him up. CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Shaya and Saya up.

Unless I'm wrong, I still got stabbed, so I'm still on the ground dying.
Stabilize: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
Stable.

Up in the sense it is your turn.

Saya frowns as the fighter's companion steps up and heals him, so she shifts her aim and targets the healer...

Flurry of Arrows, 1: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16
Flurry of Arrows, 2: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Damage, Arrow 1: 1d8 ⇒ 4
Damage, Arrow 2: 1d8 ⇒ 6

Saya shoots the healer right in his healing face, or actually more honestly in his shoulder region. He grunts in obvious pain, what with the arrow in him. The swordsman sees that Saya shot his friend and steps forward to assault her as well, stepping over the downed Virog.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

He misses horribly.

Mivvy, Virog, and Skaf are up.

Welcome to it! A thread for all our non IC related needs.

I really missed the bolding of chat there. Will attempt to be better about that in the future. Walls of text are annoying. :\

Mivvy here!

Me too.....missed that gameplay was up...might want to let all in recruitment know :)

I let recruitment know that discussion was up. Hopefully they come here and see that game play is up.

I just sent them PM's too.

Thank you, just found out :)

I am present! I did miss the thread at the start. My apologies.

It's all good. This is still the "briefing" portion. The tavern is the real opportunity for roleplay.

I don't suppose the board counts as a trap for using Disable Device, does it? I assume it would take Craft and materials to repair it.

It does not count as a trap in that way, it is listed as a hazard, much like walking a ledge.

Scorched One, how would you like to handle opportune parry and riposte?
It's meant to trigger after attack rolls but before damage. Will that slow the game down too much?

If it happens, we'll deal with it at the time. Not worried about it slowing the game down that much.

My 2cp on Parry and Riposte: I believe the best course of action is declaring it at the end of your turn, in case you get attacked. That said, I traded it out for that specific reason when I made my swashbuckler...

Scorched, do you have an arrow recovery rule?

I think standard is half of missed arrows. If not, I heard it somewhere so let's say that.

OK, do I recover arrows that hit? Or half of them as well?

Happy Thanksgiving to those in the USA. Everyone else Happy Thursday!

Sure let's go half there too.

I'm going to pop in here real quiet-like...

Psst...Buy Dreng rotgut...for science! Yeah...science...

HEY! Dreng and his friend the haberdasher have no need of your rotgut.

If anyone gets that joke, they are awesome. That is the most awesome character in PFS period. PERIOD.

Sorry, I have been swept away by the slightly early birth of my second child.
I will try to get back on board in the next few days but feel free to bot me as needs be.

Congratulations!

Congratulations

Congrats! Just saying, but Lee is a name that goes great for either gender/sex/whateverthetermisnow.

Congrats!

I'm not built for Diplomacy, Dev, Mivvy or Virog could probably help.

You guys just butchered this encounter. So many diplomacy fails. It hurts. Thankfully, this is not something that disqualifies you from the scenario. It is very forgiving that way.

That was hilariously bad.

So gang, do we move along and try with the next shift, or do we hurt him and go in anyway?

I can try to sneak by, but I wouldn't like to be alone in the mausoleum. Perhaps try to look for traces of the gnome and come back with sunlight?

I like either of Shaya's ideas (sneaking or coming back later when there is a different guard) better than attacking.

I will say that this guy looks significantly stronger than you guys. And he appears to be a cleric-y sort.

Come back later, it is! Time to meander off in search of more profitable searches.

Skaya, Skaf, Shaya, and Virog, thank you for your postings. Mivvy, I understand you are with a new child and am glad to make accomodations there. Dev, we could use a few more posts from you please.

Happy New Year, Everyone!
May all your endeavours in the new annum go enormously well!

So, funny illusion story time.

Once upon a time, there was a module in which you fight illusions. Well, in fighting these illusions when I ran it, all but one of our party members disbelieved. One did not. He was at like 2 hit points because of damage from illusions. They're all saying "It's not real." And he's like "HELP ME YOU IDIOTS I'M DYING!"

It was hilarious.

I still occasionally ask him to roll a will save to disbelieve when things attack him, only to state "Nope, that's real." Or "You feel pretty sure that a solid matter x just hit you."

I had a whole party walk on a bridge made by walls of force covered in silent images. All went well until they stumbled on a Programmed Image that showed the bridge crumbling. Now, the wizard smelled the trick and had the good sense to glitterdust the bridge, revealing the illusion, but not before the rogue, in a somewhat hasty decision, jumped off the rail, trusting his Ring of Feather Fall to have him land safely away from the debris.
The rest of the session was spent trying to get him out of the crevice.

About illusions in Fimbrik's house... Well, I'd like to believe that we're not so dense as to not suspect that they're illusions. We just can't get our subconscious minds to believe that.

That's easily my favorite part about illusions. You can suspect whatever you want, but proving it is always the kicker.

Did we lose both our swashbucklers? Frontline and face?

We very well may have.

Sorry for being out of the game so long. The boy had every minor newborn ailment you could find: he's fine now but it's been overwhelming.
I'll try to get caught up and back into it ASAP.

I'm sorry that I haven't been able to post much this week. Work has been an utter atrocity. I should be able to return to a normal post schedule tomorrow.

It happens. I will actually be vacationing later this month, so trying to resolve this before then so we can transition to the next scenario.

As for a leaving order, Mivvy first, then Virog, me and Skag, Saya closing?

Sounds good to me.

I'm fine with that.

Yup

Are we going to be able to finish this one? We're almost done I think.

Yeah, sorry, I guess somehow I missed it was my turn. Again.

I didn't get to take an action but now have been revived. Does that count as a delay?
