Lost Lands Campaign (Inactive)

Game Master brvheart

Naomi looks at the cats and then at the front of the line ’well at least we didn’t get any vulgar comments from Jarvis’ ”Unless you boys are afraid that one of those cats is a familiar to the necromancer I don’t see any reason we need to kill them, Shall we continue, there appears to be a intersecting hallway up there.”

can we go up the hallway to the intersection?

Hagrym shoos the kitties out of the way. "Watch out down here....them wererats will come looking for you, if you aren't careful!" He heads toward the intersection that Naomi spotted.

A reminder of the intersection:

The roar of water can be heard hundreds of feet away. The passage opens into a round room with a sunken floor. The funnel-shaped floor drops 20 feet to a five-foot iron grate. Sewage cascades down in a deluge from hundreds of angled pipes emptying into this room. Torrential water spirals around the room in a whirlpool that drains into an expansive underwater cave system that eventually empties into the Reaping Sea. A crumpled section of iron catwalk lies upon the drain, collecting debris from the whirlpool.

Cyric groans and nods for Hagrym to pick a direction and go. "Might as well get it over with...."

Nasty place, this is. Any preference as to direction?"

this is N 4 where we are at now, we have explored south and west of here, which general direction was the rat house from here? can we move north to the intersection above or is that way blocked?

You are coming from the north.

Well, through process of elimination, I suppose East is the direction we shall do!

Hagrym leads the others to the east, if it isn't totally blocked.

Turvijagal will follow Hagrym. Scimitar drawn. Expecting trouble; as usual.

perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

As Hagrym steps on the rail-less, iron-mesh catwalk, he is stuck fast. It grabs him and starts moving him off to the exit to the east leaving a gaping hole in the bridge where whatever this thing was!

Roll init
init creature: 20 + 5 = 25

is the flooring leaving with our paladin? freaking out a little Naomi screams "Help Him! Does anyone know what it is?

init: 1d20 ⇒ 17

Initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

"Woah! What is that thing!"

What knowledge would you want for identification? Arcane?

Edit: I immediately came up with like 4 inappropriate things when the cats were trolling, but being like 2 days ago it lost its luster! :'(

init: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
knowledge arcane arcane: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

Will profession Gambler tell me what creature it is? :)

is it covered in green felt or glitter?

While panicking a little Naomi tries to figure out what the thing is.

knowledge: pick one: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24

lol!

arcane does not help with this.

getting a good look at the creature 'was that glistening tentacles and teeth I saw?' "Be careful boys, I think it's a mimic, hey Cyric see if you can talk it into looking like poker chips."

history: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

The mimic constricts Hagrym for damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13 and drags him another 10' down the passage.

is there an open gap in the bridge? Can we cross it? What Skill check?

Am I considered grappled? Does he have to roll to hit me? Am I able to attack in return?

@Naomi, yes there is a gap. It is an acrobatics check. @Hagrym, you are stuck fast and yes considered grappled, but can return the attack with a one handed weapon @-2.

Cyric pops open the potion of animate rope and sends a rope to grab the floating pair before they are out of range. "Ulatha help me hold onto the rope! Uh... Please."

'The rope can enwrap only a creature or an object within 1 foot of it—it does not snake outward—so it must be thrown near the intended target. Doing so requires a successful ranged touch attack roll (range increment 10 feet)' Thusly, as drinking the potion is a standard you will need to wait for next round to throw it.

nice.... Ok well then I will move along the wall or catwalk to get as close as possible before throwing it with my move. Unless uthala can throw it while I hold the end on her turn. Probably a better shot anyway, I will ask her to.

Hate to say this Cyric, but it is a move action to pull a potion.

oh duh

Cyric tells Ulatha to throw the rope at the mimic and Hagrym as they float away, holding onto the end.

Hagrym yells as he swings his new waraxe at the monster.

Attack 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 8 - 2 = 9
Damage 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

"What in the void is that!"

Seeing the dwarf grabbed and hauled away Galerio quickly thinks of something that hopefully might help, casting Grease on the dwarf.

"Sorry for the sliming Hagrym!"

reflex mimic: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Well, it slows it down from getting away at least! Now they are greasy.

I am assuming where the four is at is the location that is empty and needing the acrobatic roll

Naomi moves forward to where she can clearly see the mimic and Hagrym, instead of saying something pithy she just unleashes an Ear-Pearcing Scream

dazed/fort. save @ 14 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Yes, the '4' is the now empty location.

fort: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

Uthala grabs the rope and attempts to jump the gap.
acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
reflex: 1d20 ⇒ 4
She falls, but holds on to the rope.

"Öhm, that is a long drop."Switching to his longhammer. with sheathing that is a fullround action

She couldn't just throw it the 20ft instead?...

That would require Dex which as you can see is not her strong suit!

Ulfgard
Turvijal
Jarvis
Naomi and
Shandar are up

Sorry for being tardy again. I had been planning on following right behind Hagrym before all this Mimic business (post #3759); oh well. I'll just assume that I fell back lost in thought or something when all this happened …

Turvijagal will run up to get beside Naomi and drop is backpack at that spot and get ready to help jump over the gape in the walkway. (next round, moved my icon on the map)

looks like cat caught a dwarf readies a force missle

That leaves Jarvis to act.

Jarvis follows Turv over to the grate, getting ready to also make the leap over the gap.

Draws weapon and uses an AP to give it a +1, it stacks with the current enchantment.

The mimic is dazed one round.
Uhtala, as no one grabbed the rope, falls into the whirlpool damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

How far down is Uhtala?

The funnel-shaped floor drops 20 feet to a five-foot iron grate.

The rope who's end I have been holding?

The rope who's end I have been holding?

With a) your 10 STR and b) that will not prevent her from dropping 20' down from where you are at. Someone in the middle needed to grab the rope. She is not dead. Not yet anyway. She is pinned however.
