| Brandark Plainswalker |
Not particularly, nor do I want it to be able to attack the dam workers when they come back.
Brandark looks both relaxed but wary as he keeps an eye on the pool.

Round Two
Elektra begins to summon in a Squid to force the creature to the surface.
Watery Creature's Will Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18
Beneath the surface the watery creature breaks free from its hold.
Round Three
Elektra's Squid will appear in the water. What does it do? The creature sank fifteen feet below the surface. Does anyone else do anything?

| Brandark Plainswalker |
Brandark steps back slightly and waits for the thing to come up.
No Idea what it was. I didn't get a chance to see it.
He readies his axe for the thing to come back up.
Well there you are.
Brandark exclaims as he hacks down on the thing.
attack: 1d20 + 8 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 3 + 3 = 17
BAB, STR, Magic, Haste, Power, Furious Focus

2H STR, Power, Magic, Haste
Add 1 to hit and damage if Orc / Goblin / Monsterous / Abberation
Did anyone actually see what it was before we started throwing spells around ??
Brandark continues to balance on his feet waiting for something to come splashing up.
ready attack: 1d20 + 8 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 3 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 8 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 3 + 3 = 28

Sorry I guess I acted a little hastily. Electra you are knowledgeable could you identify it?Stone will move into the room (the far left corner of the pool) word and shield drawn.
| Brandark Plainswalker |
As I had bad luck with the crab, I will wait for a chance to strike, instead of going in after it.
Edit, technically I could attack 10' down. Just have to go back to the horses and get my lance. :)
| GM Mazra |
Round Four
Elektra's squid continues to attempt to push the large semi-aquatic creature to the surface, but the gilled creature resists.
The watery creature swims around the squid to the bottom and retrieves a trident.
GMPC Garrath
Garrath sheaves his greatsword, and readies his lucerne hammer.
Elektra 25 (AC13 42/42)

Round Five
The watery creature is standing on the bottom of the pool. Its head and upper torso is ten feet below the surface.
| Flynn Elric |
Aquaman's actually a badass if you look at his power set
not a one Flynn stands back and watches
| Brandark Plainswalker |
Well, I for one don't want to swim around with him. Any way of shocking him to get him out?
Branark waits an opportunity to strike at the creature.
Also, does anyone know what it is, or what it is vulnerable to?
He throws a quick look at the more intelligent members of the party for that answer.
| Brandark Plainswalker |
Pretty much everyone's issue right now I think. :(
| More Villains |
Moving on then. :)
@Elektra - You have your squid. I will change the tactics of the squid to attack the creature. Its chance to Bull Rush the creature now that it is not held is nil.
Round Five
Elektra's squid feebly attacks the watery creature. It does no damage.
bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 71d3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
tentacles: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 131d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Elektra, Stone, and Brandark watch the murky pool.
At the bottom of the pool, the watery creature, with trident now in hand, attacks the pesky squid. The tentacle creature goes limp in the water and begins to die.
trident: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (4) + 18 = 221d8 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 172d6 ⇒ (1, 2) = 31d6 ⇒ 5
The Watery Creature moves up to the surface.
GMPC Garrath, with lucerne hammer now in hand, has the reach to attack the watery creature. The Shoanti Barbarian cuts into its slimy hide.
lucerne hammer 1: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 211d12 + 16 ⇒ (8) + 16 = 24
lucerne hammer 2: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 71d12 + 16 ⇒ (6) + 16 = 22
The Watery Creature took 24 points of damage.

Round Six
Flynn, you can take Round Five actions. And everyone please post what you will do in Round Six. Thanks.
| Flynn Elric |
Flynn steps back well out of reach, draws his bow. and shoots if he has a clean shot.
attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Rapid shot attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
| Brandark Plainswalker |
Round 6
Ah, here you are now.
Brandark swings his trusty axe in a golf swing like maneuver to hack into the creature.
attack: 1d20 + 8 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 3 + 3 = 18
BAB, STR, Magic, Haste, Power, Furious Focus

2H STR, Power, Magic, Haste, Add 1 to hit and damage if Orc / Goblin / Monsterous / Abberation
Knowing the futility of trying to shoot into water, He waits for it to come up to where he can fight it.
Ready attack: 1d20 + 8 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 3 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 8 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 3 + 3 = 22

Round Six
Elektra casts a Lightning Bolt at the watery creature. It takes the full brunt of Elektra's shocking spell.
Water Creature's Reflex Save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11
Stone backs up sheathing his scimitar. He pulls out his crossbow.
Brandark readies for an attack.
The Watery Creature howls at Elektra's bolt. It wades toward the wizard and thrust its trident toward the Elven Mage. But the effects of Elektra's bolt was still clouding the watery creature's abilities. It viciously thrusts again, this time striking Elektra.
trident attack 1: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (1) + 18 = 191d8 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 222d6 ⇒ (2, 3) = 51d6 ⇒ 3
trident attack 2: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 281d8 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 222d6 ⇒ (4, 6) = 101d6 ⇒ 2
Elektra took 32 points of damage.
GMPC Garrath takes a step back with his reach weapon and delivers two strikes against the watery creature.
lucerne hammer 1: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 261d12 + 16 ⇒ (1) + 16 = 17
lucerne hammer 2: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 211d12 + 16 ⇒ (12) + 16 = 28
Brandark fills the gap open by Garrath and hacks into the creature.
I used the most advantageous rolls for Brandark in this situation.
Flynn sticks the creature with one of his two arrows.
Elektra 25 (AC13 10/42)
Stone 23 (AC22 68/68)
Watery Creature 21 (AC? -135/?)
Garrath 12 (AC18 (72/77)
Brandark 22 (AC21 51FL62/61FL72) Shifted
Flynn 21 (AC20 47/47)
Amazingly the creature is still up.
Round Seven
Stone the Blade of Sarenrae
|
Stone seeing the violent strike Elektra received forgets about trying to shot the thing and just moves to the over to the door opposite to the one he is at. And trys to pull her back so he can heal her.
| Brandark Plainswalker |
Hey Leave her alone you overgrown toad
Brandark now toe to toe with the creature, tries to turn into a blender.
I checked, and we still have haste going. :)
attack: 1d20 + 8 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 3 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 5 + 1 + 1 - 3 + 3 = 25

Round Seven
Elektra takes a step back after the vicious attack while pulling out a wand. She fires an Acid Arrow at the watery creature, but the magic arrow sails over its target.
Stone hastily moves over to the injured Elektra, and brings healing to the Elven Mage.
The Watery Creature withdraws diving deep to the bottom of the murky pool.
Garrath move the pools edge and thrust his Lucerne Hammer into the water, but the creature was beyond reach.
Brandark and Flynn are unable to react.
If there are other actions you wish to take, please feel free.

Round Eight
We need to stay in Round actions. Brandark and Flynn can take both a Round Seven and Eight set of actions. The party will lose sight of the Watery Creature. There are other doors in the room and a stack of skulls against doors to the south wall. But there are also rooms to the left and right.
Stone the Blade of Sarenrae
|
I doubt it will be coming back up that way. I'm guessing it has an escape tunnel down there. Let's check one of these over doors I will keep an eye on the water just in case.
| Flynn Elric |
Idea, Could we collapse the well in on itself? Stop it from coming back up just in case.
| Flynn Elric |
it shouldnt do anything to the rest of the dam, depends on what this well was used for. Should be as simple as pushing or smashing the well's bricks in
| Flynn Elric |
Flynn only readies his actions to attack with his bow should the creature pop back up
| GM Mazra |
Round Eight
The party discusses what they will do next .
Elektra 25 (AC13 26/42)

Garrath 12 (AC18 (72/77)
Brandark 22 (AC21 51FL62/61FL72) Shifted
Flynn 21 (AC20 47/47)
Round Nine
The creature you were fighting has regeneration. We need to stay in Round action for me keep track of this. But the party has other rooms to explore, a mound of skulls blocking the south doors, demolition work, or whatever else you want to do. Just do it using Rounds.
| Brandark Plainswalker |
Brandark will move over and kick the skulls out of the way and open the door.
Ach, enough of waiting on that thing. If it comes up it comes up and we can deal with it then, unless you can help with the ability to breathe water.
| GM Mazra |
There are hundreds of skulls blocking the doorway. It would take one person 10 minutes to clear the doorway. The whole party can do it in two minutes (20 Rounds).
There are also doors to the left and right.
With this additional information, do you begin to work to clear the southern door, or try the east or west doors?
| Brandark Plainswalker |
Didn't realize that it was so many.
Brandark looks at the pile of skulls, and then goes to the east door, and pulls it open.
| Flynn Elric |
Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19
Flynn wordlessly checks around for traps
| Brandark Plainswalker |
Brandark pauses with his hand near the handle and looks sheepishly at Stone.
Ach, Lad, I was just trying to push things, as it seems that thing isn't going to come up soon.
He then pauses for Flynn to quickly look over the door, and then opens it.
| Something Terrible |
Round Nine
Flynn will not find a trap. When Brandark opens the door and begins to inspect the room, he sees a pool of water against the wall to the west of this chamber, with a set of steps leading down into it along the pool’s east side. Opposite the steps is an alcove in which rises a fantastically detailed scale model of Skull’s Crossing. The five skulls along its face seem to be actual human skulls, the bone polished to a gleaming sheen.
As interesting as all this alone is, it is not nearly as interesting as the chittering, scorpion-shaped monstrosity that comes alive when the Dwarf Cavalier enters the room. This thing appears to be made of a hideous mix of chitinous limbs and human skulls.
Garrath's Initiative: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16
Elektra's Initiative: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
Flynn's Initiative: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
Stone's Initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Brandark's Initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13
Scorpion-like Creature's Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18
Round Ten
The look of this thing is truly terrible.
Everyone must now make a DC18 Will save or become Frightened
GMPC Garrath
Garrath's Will Save: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
Garrath musters up just enough courage to not be frightened by the sight of the terrifying creature.
It moves to block Brandark from moving further into the room.
The Scorpion-like creation Brandark does not become Frightened, then it tries to grab the Dwarf Cavalier with one of its massive skull encrusted claws.
If Brankdark flees from being Frightened, the Scorpion-like creature moves an additional five feet and goes after Garrath. Either way it will miss its attempt to grab a party member.
Right Claw: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 212d6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 1) + 6 = 101d20 + 26 ⇒ (12) + 26 = 38
