Jagar knows this is bad. Losing his eyes is bad, being trapped in the spider's nest only makes it worse. Though he can smell the girl, he can't even hear her... As he strains against the sticky flexing bonds his vision clears and he can see again. The girl is still there, struggling in vain, too. He howls to her, and lunges against his bonds again.

Del groans as the smoke clears and he sees he's surrounded by sticky webbing. He quips, "Did a spider explode after she blinded me?" as he slips nearer to the crone. When she's clearly in view though, he holds his shot and keeps Ruby leveled at the witch.

Bleeding heavily from the hacking blow delivered by Corum, but nonetheless pleased with her work in locking the rest of the group in place, Granny Nan is old and wise enough to know that her time is nearly at an end. she cannot hope to defeat so many attackers and her damned useless troll guards are nowhere to be seen.
Well, if she couldn't defeat them she could curse them with her dying breath!
She locks her gaze on Corum and scuttles forward with a clawed hand outstretched.

Tearing free of the webs, but careful not to re-entangle herself, Nasrin moves after the baleful witch. Her scimitar covered in remnants of the web is a dull blur as she attacks the withch. The feral girl's silent rage doing too much of the guiding though and it whistles past Granny Nan's head.
Well, at least I am not blind nor grappled... Oh, the Map doesn't seem to have been updated... Nasrin wants to be out of the webs and will weather an AoO if needed to both get out and attack the witch.
Yeah I don't have access to my laptop at the moment with my maps on it so will update that tomorrow. I don't think it is essential currently and I will place Nasrin according to your move.

lol so feeble :(
The old elf struggles against the webs with everything he has, if he could only use his anger to power his frail body as Corum could he would tear these webs off Him and rip the witch apart with his bare hands.
Alas his will was strong, his anger toward the witches an undeniable, but his flesh was weak and he could do nothing but rail ineffectually at His bonds and glare with hate toward their enemy and hope that one of his companions could end her miserable existence before she could really hurt one of them.
With a prayer on her lips, Sapphire listens to the footsteps of the witch, before lashing out with her blade.

The fire burns away much of the web in this room but the rest still holds the party fast. Greyston drops a bomb at his feet and though he is careful to direct the blast away from his friends, still suffers burns himself.

Jagar finds himself free of the webs, at the cost of scorched fur! He bounds to the girl's side and attackes the wizened old woman she is trying to kill.
Corum ignores his burns. He shouts "CORUM SMUSH!" and attempts to bring the confrontation to an end with a massive overhead blow. There is no finesse just brute force and savage fury.
Screaming in frustration, Sapphire stabs the witch again.

If such a thing were possible, Corum is even more enraged by the touch of the witch. A red mist descends like none he has encountered before and with a mighty blow he strikes the old witch down where she crumples like a heap of rags.
Combat Over
That web is going to last a while for those still trying to get out and Corum your mental ability damage will last 50 minutes.
One thing I forgot to note, the stairs you came up earlier continued on further into the tower. That's my mistake for not mentioning it but they do end at a locked door
Del notes the change in Corum's speech but shrugs it off as part of the man's untameable anger. While Corum busies himself redecorating, Del looks worriedly at Ruby and begins inspecting her to see if there are any mechanical defects he can find: a swollen joint or cross threaded screw. Finding nothing, he looks up with a concerned look on his face as he watches Corum continue to rampage. "I don't know what that witch did but it worries me." It's hard to tell if his comment is in regard to Ruby's inaccuracy or Corum's present smash-fest.

Nasrin uses her her scimitar to sever the witches head. She starts to say something, but nothing comes out and her visage clouds up again. Not one of them deserves to live - making undeath from children! Now she can't come back too easily. Tossing the head aside, she searches the remains. At one point she looks up and thinks, It'd be easier to search if the place was intact..

Helpless within the web spell the old Elf watches the witch fall with grim satisfaction.
She may have cast her last hateful curse upon Corum but unfortunately for her it only served to enrage him further, she just added fuel to his fire and she got burned.
Now that Corum has destroyed that disgusting witch, would any of you mind getting me out of these damn webs! he says with angry frustration, as Corum go to use to smash up the room.
Greyston, she has robbed Corum of his intellect. The last spell she cast was a temporary curse.Touch of idiocy is the name I know it by. There is little you can do for him until the spell passes. Unfortunately that could be at least half an hour maybe more, depending on how powerful she was he says
assuming someone cuts me free of the webs ....
thank you he says simply, embarrassed that such a simple spell had so effectively incapacitated him, it was something he would think on. He did not want it to happen again.
Corum? Corum! he says a little louder trying to get his attention You did well my friend, you destroyed her before she could harm us. You don't need to destroy all her furniture. he says trying to reason with him.
we need to re group here before we think of pushing onwards, Nasrin, let me try and help you. I think I can break the curse that spirit put on you he says to the wild girl and concentrating he draws upon his powers

Sapphire staggers against the wall, relief flooding off her as she barely has the strength to stand. She winces and turns her head aside as splinters of wood from a nearby table, newly smashed by Corum, spray across the wall.
She scrapes the remaining shards of glitter from her eyes and in a tired voice asks
Where to next then? I'd suggest pulling a witch;s tower and hole up here for a while so we can recover, but we all know that reinforcements will arrive before long. We have to get this done. Up the stairs?
There is more of this floor unexplored or the stairs leading up. Obviously you have not searched most places you have fought in either although Granny Nan quite clearly had a ring of keys in her pinney.
As the others busy themselves with the newly headless corpse of Nanny Gran, Del steps out in the hall, whispering to his crossbow in a placating tone. "Don't worry, Ruby. They're all very concerned for you despite their silence. It'll be ok, you'll see." He then checks her string and trigger mechanism as he waits for the others to finish rummaging.
He remarks quietly to no one in particular, thinking out loud as he busies himself, "Hmmm. There would have been a lot more dramatic tension if she'd turned Corum against us with a charm or somesuch. I'll need to remember that later. Oooo. And maybe Corum could remember what he'd done afterward. Filled with guilt but too proud to apologize to whomever he struck... oh this is gold! Blasted witch missed a perfect opportunity."

Finishing his incantation and releasing the spell Ellleross doesn't even wait to see if it has had the desired effect as he turns upon Dell his eyes blazing with anger and his face flushed and his hands clenched into tight fists.
you are a fool to joke about such things Dell, a God Dammned fool! he says sternly barely keeping his anger in check you have no idea what such spells can do, absolutely no idea. Do you not see what terrible havoc they can cause? Obviously you don't, or else you would not make light of such things. well I prey you never find out! he says as he moves away from the half Orc.
Del looks up in bald surprise at Elleross' angry tone. As the old elf stomps off, Del looks to the others with a plainly flabbergasted look on his face. "What was- huh? Was it something I said?"
The witch had on her a potion of cure moderate wounds, a potion of fly, a potion of invisibility, a ring of protection +1 and a ring of keys.
A large glass snow globe depicting Whitethrone's Royal Palace with a music box built into the base sits atop one of the nightstands, and is worth 300gp.
Under the desk, there is also box containing dozens of handwritten letters to Queen Elvanna and children's parents, obviously written by children themselves. The letters are heart-wrenching appeals to 'go home' or to 'let them go.' Alongside them are requisition orders, all stamped with approval, for children from orphanages in Whitethrone to be brought to the clock tower. There are far more requisition orders here than children in the cells below - the box's contents paint a grim picture of what has transpired here.

Greyston groans. "Stop both of you! We've been through a lot already and we haven't even dealt with the main threat! Some of us deal with the differently." He shouts out while wiping the the sweat from his brow. "Set your focus on what's above, now let's take stock what do we have left."

Stalking away from the Bowman Elleross realises he is more annoyed with himself than Dell.
he doesn't know any better, how could he? I should not have lost my temper....but that damn spirit and then that Witch. Gods! I was useless, I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn let alone that attic whisperer, then to be blinded and trussed up like a turkey! What a shambles.
I need to be better than that...I have to be or someone is going to die. Probably myself
Berating himself silently he moves with purpose toward the headless witch.
Looking down at the crumpled corpse he tries to regain his composure, takeing several deep breaths he calms himself as best he can.
I apologise Greyston, and to you also Dell. I should not take out my frustration on you...I ...it's just that I was not able to do anything...I couldn't stop her, I was helpless. It is not a feeling that sits well with me he says without turning around, apart from Corum none of the others knows much about him. They know nothing of his incarceration or the events that led to it.
but I say this to you now and mark my words well. should a witch gain control over me then do not hesitate. Put me down before I hurt anyone. I will not have your deaths on my conscience as well he says bitterly
a sense motive check would likely reveal Elleross is not really upset about the battle with the witch and her minion

A potion of Fly? Oh, if this were a true Gygaxian adventure we would get that *after* we needed, not before! Oh, Frapcious Day!
Nasrin takes the items from the witches pinney and turns them over to Elleros. Once he has them, she takes the keys and waits at the door in the adjacent room.
Corum emerges from his stupor and looks down at the witch. He smiles, then laughs. "Webs and sparkly dust. She thinks they could stop me. Bloody fool."
He turns to Eleross. "She did something though and you removed whatever it was. Thanks."
He fishes a potion out of his pack and drains it. Turning to the others he says. "we can't stop. We need to hit and run. If we stay then we could be trapped by reinforcements. We've taken some hits but we're all still in good shape. I say we finish this now. I won't quit."
To demonstrate this he moves to stand by Nasrin. "Open the door. Lets kill these b&#@$*^s"
Del, it's clear something there touched close to home, it's not like Ellri to shout so
she watches the party, pushed, stressed, hurting, and just as she is trying to find the right words to help, never having been much good at that sort of thing, the dam suddenly breaks and Elleross opens up to talk to everyone.
Sapphire nods at Corum's words.
Let's be moving then, whilst we still have fight left in us for taking on the dragon...

before we head through this door we need to heal fully and buff as much as possible assuming this leads to the dragon.
Do we wait an hour so Nasrin can speak and cast spells? Can we wait that long with people's active buffs?
I have 4 potions of clw if anyone wants them
I can cast enlarge person on Corum if he wants it, 5 minute duration
And I have a scroll of fly. Which I think I should cast on Corum as well is it 5 minutes duration?
I will cast mirror image and protection from energy on myself
When we get to the dragon I suggest everyone waits before acting so I can cast haste on you all.
I will need to do this before Corum rages.
I am assuming if the spells are active on Corum and then he rages then they continue to work ?

Moving over to Sapphire offers his hand to her. "Let me guide you, you did well in that fight." He says squeezing her hand.
He then turns back to Elleross as he apologises. "It's ok Elleross, my frustration got the better of me i couldn't get out of that web either." He turns to show the self inflicted burns. "Let's at least have a plan first Corum. Do we wait for Nasrins and Sapphire inflictions to wear off?" He says slowly the energy still sapped from him.
I say we wait and heal, we could do a quick search while we do.

Elleross waves away Greystons apology, he had nothing to apologise for he was just keeping the peace.
its fine Greyston, You were just keeping the peace. i do not know what is the best option. if we can afford to wait, we should wait. Nasrin cannot call upon her powers whilst she cannot speak and Sapphire you look like you could do with a rest. he says
on the other hand, if we wait the spell I cast upon dells ammunition will end by the time we set off
Nas, Sapphire, what do you want to do? he asks them
whatever we decide, before we go up I have some spells I would like to cast, Corum I will enable you to fly and I intend to increase your size and strength. If you are willing.
Then once we get up there, if you can hold off on your rage I will cast a spell called haste upon you all. It will give you incredible speed
At Greyston's shout, Del's perplexed look becomes even more confused and he points to himself and arches his eye brows wildly as if to clearly say, without words, "Me?" He begins to stammer, "Now wait just a-" when Sapphire's grip steals the retort from his lips before he can speak it. As the others mull about in awkwardness and Corum urges them all to press onward, Del offers to Sapphire in a quiet aside, "I would just like to point out that I have been nothing but a wellspring of charm and wit since we set foot in this black tower." He shoots her a grin and wink, demonstrating perhaps that Elleross and Greyston's shouts were already water under the bridge when the very pair then apologize.
Del nods with a broad, easy smile. "Think nothing of it, my friends." He then nods to the door. "Before we go quaffing every potion we have, shouldn't we check to see that those stairs end in a dragon and not just another floor of grannies and trolls?
Del, I'm sure we all appreciate your wit, but maybe you can keep the more eloquent parts to yourself.. just for now?
she gestures around
after all, you don't want anyone else to hear your words spoken aloud and write your story before you get a chance eh!?
She claps the half-orc on the back, squeezing his shoulder in fondness.
Sapphire grimaces at Greyston as he kindly tends to her.
Now that's kind of you to say, but I made no difference in that fight, just cut a lot of air with my blade. Corum, his rage, saved us there. Sometimes all the magic in the wworld can't defeat a steel blade, I should remember that lesson more myself. Even with training to fight in the dark, I just couldn't land a blow.
She sighs and smiles at the alchemist
Never mind, together we can triumph, I'm sure of it
Sapphire gratefully accepts another potion from Elleross and swings in back

One thing I should point out is that I recognise pbp is a long format of the game and if people make a decision early in character building that they think may be a mistake, I will work with them to rectify it later provided they don't subsequently choose feats that are reliant on the one they'd now like to change and so on.
Also, I tend to give players a chance in the level up from 1 to 2 to change any aspect of their characters, from ability scores to class and even race. This is a one time thing and it would be good of you did decide to change class for example that you were broadly still I'm the same category, so Corum changing to fighter, bloodrager, even melee druid or ranger. It just helps maintain the Continuity of back story and rp so far.
Have a think whether this applies to you because you will be at that junction soon
Yep. I have changed nothing about this adventure so far save from actually removing two encounters and not having any random encounters that resulted in combat either.
The obituary page for Snows of Summer is quite extensive :/
I don't use XP but the guide actually suggests you shouldn't level up until even further along than this Lodge. However, I will have you level when you clear this place cos it's not going to get easier!
On a serious note, I would have a backup character or two ready for this p as particular book. I'm not a killer GM by ny stretch but this is a pretty deadly scenario as low level Adventure Paths go

Maybe you could allow us more hero points to offset the danger?
It would be annoying to invest time in a character and have them die so early with no hope of bringing them back.
But at the same time we don't want it to be easy :)
I'm enjoying it. Given the amount of combat and the environmental damage, plus our minimal cspacity for healing I'd say we're doing quite well. Getting by by the skin of our teeth but thats 1st level for you.
Yeah. We're doing well. Sapphire, infernal healing is way cool but right now boy could we do with a cleric and all those lovely clw spells!
I would like to congratulate everyone for really getting into the game too. 500 posts since Nov is great. We've got some real momentum going. I'm really enjoying it.
Now if Greyston could shove a large bomb down that fool's throat that would be most welcome. Corum is as weak as a day old kitten (relatively speaking).
BTW J. I may tweak my guy slightly. I'm going archetype at lvl 2 - if I get there - so I want to make sure he's right.

Sapphire is better off with her Mwk longsword so will pass up the +1 short sword. She'll stick her hand up for the Yeti cloak though, but is happy to pass if someone else wants it.
I will be posting throughout this period. Ironically, because I'll be off work it'll actually be easier for me to keep up to date with games. That being said, it's understandable and expected if the pace slows a little during this time.

That cloak is brilliant - Happy to let it go to Sapphire. I suppose its a good time to talk about how loot is dished out? Will we roll for loot? Priority first? so a ring of protection would go to frontliner with the worst AC?
The only loot i'd really like is a good at the spellbook - i'm not sure if anything in it is on my list though. I'd also take the Mswk thieves tools as i have disable device and they will help a lot! Then i think its best we use 25gold from what we got so i can craft a cure light potion, agreed?

As for tweaking character. I was toying with changing race but then just decided to reduce my cha by 1 to increase str to 18.
Sort skills later but onky 4 points so I might just increase my clsss skills not covered at lvl 1.

Intimidate

Rage power:
Superstition.
On rage powers. I'm torn between the beast totem path and the regenerative/self healing ones.
Beast totem uses 3 powers to eventually gain pounce (which looks great) but the others will enable me to self heal and regenerate HP. With Damage reduction I reckon that will enable me to stand toe to toe with almost anything while raging.
I will also go increased DR when I can (lvl 8) and follow the superstitious path by taking Witch hunter and spell sunder.

Spell study - spontaneously cast any bard/cleric/ Druid spell over 1 rd/spell level. Costs two slots of same level spell or higher.
Leveled with one caveat... before I pass on JZ's kind offer of whiteout liquid for my character sheet, thought I'd better check something.
We're all good with an invisible character losing their invisibility when they attack, and it's recognised that for instance rogues get a single round of sneak attacks in as they break their invisibility. However, being invisible grants you total concealment, my question would be..during the round you break invisibility are you still considered to have total concealment?
I ask because I'm looking at following the Moonlight Stalker feat chain, so it's important to understand when concealment applies and when it doesn't!
We're all good with an invisible character losing their invisibility when they attack, and it's recognised that for instance rogues get a single round of sneak attacks in as they break their invisibility.
Sapphire are you saying that it is your interpretation that a rogue gets a full attack routine benefiting from concealment when breaking invisibility? Because that is not my interpretation unfortunately.
If a rogue is under the effect of invisibility and has multiple attacks. I would rule that the first attack breaks the spell and therefore the second would not benefit from concealment. Am I to take it you don't believe that to be the case?
Nope not my interpretation, I was just paraphrasing the concept and evidently have ended up being too imprecise! The first attack benefiting sounds exactly right, I was just bouncing the idea around to make sure moonlight stalker would apply for that first attack before I went ahead and built towards it!
Yes, it would totally count for that first attack and multiple attacks when greater invisibility is in play. It would also count for all attacks where you were in dim light and the opponent does not have darkvision or other special perception and also when under the effects of some spells such as blur or on the outer edge of a fog cloud.
When you think about it there are actually quite a lot of opportunities to get the benefit, especially for a magus. At first glance I thought it was a little circumstantial but you should be able to get the benefit fairly consistently.

For overnight healing, Nasrin will be able to take 10 on Heal and let everyone get 4 (lvlx2) hp. Thorn will recover 6=hdx2. Rather than using 2 of Nasrin's 3 spells, what other healing do we have available?

Greyston will be taking the curagen alternative class feature - My cure extracts can be taken by anyone then not just me so we'll have 1-2 free cures per day and more as i level up. I can also make 1 cure potion a day for half.. but i'd have to stock up on ingredients when we get back to town.
My level up is all standard - Not going to change anything.
Discovery is precise bombs so i can finally get some direct hits off :P

I will take these if I can, and also I would like to keep the spell book to copy all the spells out of it but that will take time. Especially if anyone else is going to study it.
If no one wants the other scrolls I will keep them or we sell them .
I can duplicate healing spells now in dire circumstances , as it will cost me a lot of spell slots to do it and several rounds.
But it will be a useful fallback if we are in a tight spot.

I should be able to copy all of them, how do you want to manage that j? How long does it take to copy a spell it's an hour plus the time to decipher it I think.
Plus you need to pass the spell craft check.
That's right. Decipher the spell first, easiest with read magic spell, then spend an hour studying it. Make a spellcraft check and if you succeed its done. So an hour per spell basically.
Iirc someone pointed out to me that it's best if a wizard copies spells from scrolls in to their book first, as other classes can usually copy from a wizard's spell book, but vice versa is not necessarily true as wizards etc cannot understand formulas.
I'm happy to pass on the spells and scrolls, they are far better homed with Greyston and Elleross. Also, good plan with the alchemist's fire!

You are right Sapphire - But i assumed wizard/magus could understand formulas of spells they know. But i think it would be best of you or Elleros copy it down and i just cheat off both of your work :P
Messed up with rage power j. To follow the invulnerable and self healing path (making Corum a total melee guy) I can't follow the superstitious path. I'm swapping my 2nd level power for roused anger which allows me to rage while fatigued.
