Will Save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

I seem to recall that Almar is going to be largely absent until his job settles back down on the 20th.

I'd forgotten that. Apologies.

I will still afford him the 24-hour window, as he has expressed his hope to post during this period. If he can't, no worries - I'll roll his save and take his turn for him this evening.

Almar's Will Save - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Almar's free hand reaches for his eyes, and he thrusts desperately with his rapier as he stumbles backward.

Despite his blindness, Almar makes an attack against Corby 1. Whether or not it is successful, he takes a 5-Foot Step back to M9 afterwards.

Concealment Roll - 1d100 ⇒ 65

Attack (Rapier) vs. AC - 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23
If it hits, it deals 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 points of piercing damage.

Almar clumsily sticks the monster with the point of his blade. The beast barely seems to notice. It turns its attention to Sorin, and closes for an attack.

Corby 1 is taking a 5-Foot Step to J10 and making two attacks against Sorin.

First Attack (Claw) - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
If it hits, it deals 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 points of damage.

Second Attack (Claw) - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23
If it hits, it deals 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 points of damage.

Critical Confirmation - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
If successful, it deal an additional 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 points of damage.

Round 3

Sorin
Kikonu
Setomi
Raziel
Almar
Corby 1

Throne Room

Sorin is up next.

Sorin will 5' step to J12 and attack the Corby.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Damage: 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17

The game's just mocking me now...

The monster swats Sorin's glaive aside; his blade does not connect.

The red-faced man stares at Setomi. He mutters as he steps away from her blades.

Kikonu takes a 5-Foot Step back to H7 and casts a spell, targeting Setomi.

Round 3

Sorin
Kikonu
Setomi
Raziel
Almar
Corby 1

Throne Room

Setomi is up next.

Grunting in pain as the fire washes over her, Setomi grits her teeth, takes a step forward and unleashes a flurry of sword cuts on the strange little man.

Attack-Melee: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Attack-Melee: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

As she attacks she speaks to the creature-

The red-faced man shrieks as Setomi cuts into him.

Round 3

Sorin
Kikonu
Setomi
Raziel
Almar
Corby 1

Throne Room

Raziel is up next, and is due another Will Save to end Blindness at the end of his turn.

Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

Raziel blinks the glitter from his eyes, and stands ready to strike at any foe that comes near.

Round 3

Sorin
Kikonu
Setomi
Raziel
Almar
Corby 1

Throne Room

Almar is up next. I know he hasn't been able to post, but unless I'm told to take control of him for the time being, I'd like to give him the 24-hour window.

I don't think I'll have Almar run into combat blind, but I'll roll his save and move on from his turn.

Will Save (Almar) - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

Standing still for a moment, Almar rubs the spell from his eyes. The remaining bird creature strides forward and attacks Sorin again.

Corby 1 will take a 5-Foot Step to J11 and make two claw attacks against Sorin.

First Attack (Claw) - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15
If it hits, it deals 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 points of damage.

Second Attack (Claw) - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
If it hits, it deals 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 points of damage.

One of the blows connects, but the other swings wide of Sorin as he sidesteps.

Round 4

Sorin
Kikonu
Setomi
Raziel
Almar
Corby 1

Throne Room

Sorin is up next.

Sorin wil 5' step to K13 and attack the Corby.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

EDIT: I just remembered that Raziel cast Bull's Strength on me right before the fight and I haven't remembered to factor it in a single time. I'm not at home right now; what's the bonus again and how long does the spell last?

All mirth has gone from the man's face. Shifting again, he unleashes another fiery ray.

Kikonu takes a 5-Foot Step back to H7 and casts a spell, targeting Setomi.

Attack (Ray) vs Touch AC - 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
If it hits, it deals 4d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 5, 3) = 17 points of fire damage.

Round 3

Sorin
Kikonu
Setomi
Raziel
Almar
Corby 1

Throne Room

Setomi is up next.

As another ray of fire streams from the mans hand at her, Setomi deftly moves out of the way, again closing the distance between the two of them and lashes out with her swords.

Attack-Melee: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Attack-Melee: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Is the last Corby still up?

Sorry, you did indeed down the last Corby. I guess I was pretty distracted while posting last night.

The last of the bird-creatures falls to the stone floor, and the red-faced man shouts furiously as he sidesteps both of Setomi's blades. "Filthy apes! Hours of rehearsal, lost!"

Round 3

Sorin
Kikonu
Setomi
Raziel
Almar

Throne Room

Raziel is up next.

Raziel moves towards the red-faced man, and raises his hand.

"Feel the wrath of Sarenrae," he intones, loosing a bolt of fire at the foe.

Move to J8.
Fire Bolt (ranged touch attack): 1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (16) + 3 - 4 = 15
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

The firebolt strikes the red-faced man squarely in the chest, singeing his ornate robe. As wild as was his fury a moment ago, this attacks elevates him to a new level of rage. He lets out a ferocious bellow that seems to issue from all corners of the large hall.

I'm again giving Almar his 24 hour window to post, and will continue to do so through this combat, but if we haven't heard from him by the end of this encounter, I will go ahead and assume continued control of his character until he is able to rejoin us.

Round 3

Sorin
Kikonu
Setomi
Raziel
Almar

Throne Room

Almar is up next.

Having regained his sight, Almar circles behind the red-faced man, and tries to stick him with his rapier.

Almar is moving to I6 and making an attack against Kikonu.

Attack (Rapier) vs. AC - 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
If it hits, it deals 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6 points of damage.

Round 4

Sorin
Kikonu
Setomi
Raziel
Almar

Throne Room

Sorin is up next.

Sorin moves up to J9 and attacks.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Well, that's what I get for accidentally typing in d1+4 for my damage type. Though I clearly understand why the site doesn't let you correct die rolls; cheating would be rampant.

The red-faced man drops to his knees and pounds his fists into the stone floor.

"Stop! Quarter! I call for quarter!"

Round 4

Sorin
Kikonu
Setomi
Raziel
Almar

Throne Room

Setomi is up next.

Setomi holds her turn

Lowering her blades just slightly, Setomi quickly calls out.
"He calls for quarter. What shall be our answer?"

Depending on Raziel's action, we may or may not be out of initiative.

"Sarenrae offers mercy to those who repent," Raziel replies, "But those who spurn or betray her offer are destroyed without remorse."

Raziel also holds his action.

As does Almar

Does Sorin cease fighting?

Sorin lowers his glaive.

"What's going on here?" he asks sternly. "You treated this fight as if it were a play to be performed at your direction. What is it you do here?"

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

Ooohh..so close..lol

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Sorin cocks an eyebrow. "Your domain? This place seems overlarge for just you. And what is it exactly that this place does for you?"

Detect Evil focused on the red-faced man.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14

"Everything!"

He shifts slowly, and starts to rise to his feet.

Setomi stays close to him, weapons ready if he should try anything.

"I am certain you have questions. Many questions. But we've so little time. So little time."

Heal: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Sorin leans over to the others and says, "This one reeks of the stench of evil."

I assume Sorin isn't trying to conceal what he's saying?

Not particularly.

"And you reek of sweat and stupidity." Spit flies from the man's mouth as it turns into a twisted grin. "But that's not one of the questions. What we need to decide is this: Are you prepared to lay down your steel and serve me?"

Setomi would like to strike this creature, ending its evil ways...will she get surprise?

Setomi would have to succeed at a Stealth check vs. Kikonu's Perception.

OK..I will give it a try.....and maybe use my last KI point to boost my stealth by +4

Stealth: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 4 = 22

here is hoping it is enough!!

Sorin sighs at hearing the creature's response. Oblivious to Setomi's intentions, "You've already surrendered. Even had you not, there is no "decision" at hand whether or not to serve you; such a question is both pointless and ridiculous. The most immediate question is what can you tell us of the rest of this place?"

Attack-melee: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 2 = 11 the +2 is for Master of Sudden strike
Sneak Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 2) = 7
Attack-melee: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4 the +2 is for Master of Sudden strike
Sneak Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 4) = 8

Awww...crap!! I hope that I even hit! Otherwise Setomi completed a beautiful Kata...just very close to the creature...lol

Flat-Footed is Flat-Footed! Both attacks hit!

Sorin receives no answer. Setomi's darting slashes open the man's chest, and he lets out a bloodcurdling scream.

The smartest ape is the most foolish! There will be a reckoning!" He makes a furious gesture with his hands, leaving himself open to attack.

Kikonu is casting a spell. Everybody gets an Attack of Opportunity.

Almar:
Attack (Rapier) - 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
If it hits, it deals 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 points of piercing damage.

Sorry for the delay. Since Monday, Paizo's website just wouldn't load; either at home or at work. Not sure what the problem was or why's it's suddenly working now (it wasn't working earlier this morning).

Sorin is shocked and startled when Setomi attacks the man. He's about to say something but seeing the Kikonu starting to use magic Sorin attacks, hoping to force another surrender.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Since Raziel is 10' away, he doesn't get an attack of opportunity.

I wasn't really thinking of specific squares since combat ended, but it makes sense that Raziel would remain at the same distance. In any case, Setomi actually gets another attack, triggered by Kikonu's spellcasting.

Sorin's attack hits. Kikonu does not fall, but he does not seem to be in good health.

I have had similar trouble reaching the website. I was able to get through on Tuesday, but was blocked for all of yesterday, and this morning.

Setomi again slashes at the creature, hoping to stop its spell, and perhaps end its threat to her friends.

Attack-Melee: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Attack-Melee: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

OMG!!! You have got to be kidding!!!!!The system kept me out of the message boards just to deliver ..this!!!

Initiative
Almar - 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Raziel - 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17
Setomi - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
Sorin - 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Kikonu - 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21

Round 1

Kikonu
Almar
Raziel
Setomi
Sorin

Kikonu takes the Withdraw action, and moves to N3, stopping in front of the door. He avoids taking an Attack of Opportunity from Setomi and Sorin, but Almar gets one, as he threatens the second square that Kikonu leaves.

Attack of Opportunity (Rapier) vs. AC - 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
If it hits, it deals 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 points of piercing damage.

The red-faced man curses loudly as his magic slips form his grasp. With a quick step, he deftly slides under Almar's blade, and makes for a nearby door. The gunslinger pursues.

Almar moves to M3 and attempts another attack.

Attack (Rapier) vs. AC - 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
If it hits, it deals 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 points of piercing damage.

Throne Room

Raziel is up next.

Also, Bull's Strength should still be active on Sorin.

Raziel moves to keep the red faced man in sight, and fires another bolt of fire at him.

Move to K4.
Ranged touch attack: 1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 3 - 4 = 11
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Setomi moves to M4 and attempts to strike this foul beast.

Attack-Melee: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
