Medieval Europe PbP campaign (Inactive)

Game Master Michael Johnson 66

Last Saturday,

I'll try to level up some time Saturday or Sunday.

.

You may be having a bad day (if you don't level-up).

.

Iommi-Tyr Magnusson is in the rear of the party of PCs.

Fireskorn moves up and starts smashing into the closest ghoul
Flurry 1: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19
Flurry 2: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
Damage 1: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Damage 2: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Nothing is near you Even on the front lines you would be about... two moves away from anything.. A Stair are difficult Terrain and the ground with all the Debris is as well.. so more likely it just gives room for buffs first

For Tyr you forget an important thing.. attacks from behind and AOE effects.

The characters who stealthed/Went invis /went forward to scout are at the bottom of the steps however , waiting.. most likely we will let them pas then ambush.. Though Hisao will have to burn Ki to hide.

Okay, guess he will just move forwrd then :)

Go on and bust some heads, though be careful..

Oh, I didn't forget. .... About anything -- including my RL responsibilities which are eating into my game time.

I'll level-up soon (I hope).

One Ki point is good for two rounds of invisibility. So still fine with my original ki point spend. I'd imagine the ghouls will be coming at us on their turn so good time to get some ranged pot shots in... do we have any ranged?

Remeber everyone you have a +1 to most every thing.

This is true , Though unfortunately it would be at most up to the stairs. (Which is where us few who went ahead are) I dont think there is any ranged capability outside the Half-orcess that left from before. So you might not be getting backup t least until round 2-3, save from us. Also we have noted the buff Manuel..

Oh okay. Well then let me revise my action. If Hisao even with a double move can't get to the bottom of the stairwell and into the chamber then he'll just double move and not go invisible for his first round action.

How many players are there in the group that are still active now that the groups are combined?

Alphonse clanks forward a bit and holds his scythe menacingly.

"We've already destroyed one of you, the rest can follow now."

Double move 40 feet. And whether the stairs are Difficult Terrain or not depends on how steep they are. A normal set of stairs isn't difficult going DOWN.

That is true it not difficult going down. but in the room it will be, you should meet at the same time

Paddy heads towards the ghouls, blade at the ready. He stays close ti Hisao.

We can't let these beasties surround us....not good.

if Paddy gets clise enough to a ghoul,he attacks.

How many players are there in the group that are still active now that the groups are combined?

I'll post a list on Discussion in a couple hours when I leave work. It should be current.

dotting in. Will catch up later tonight.

The last bit of Francais before his tongues kick in, double moving in step with Alphonse...

As he wades forward, hands grafted to his spear, he calls out to the wretches bringing disdain to the name of his God with their foul tongues...

"The sons of Cain have NO BUSINESS with the Son of MAN! IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, BEGONE!"

Jean has had one long, crazy day. He is in no mood for any more of these blasphemous undead, and is poised to slay them all.
This time, potentially not succumbing to negative hit point integers...

Negative hit point integers is the least of your worries

Iommi-Tyr Magnusson loads and shoots a bolt from his Hand CrossBow against one of the Ghouls, staying in the rear of the party -- whenever it's his turn in Initiative. (Moving if required to be within one Range Increment)

Righteous Death Murderhobo: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
Righteous Evisceration of Undead HP: 1d4 ⇒ 4

.
(NOTE: Attack = +1 BAB, +1 DEX, No Point Blank Shot -- out of range)

ALL the murderhobo!!!

The ghouls surge up the stairs to meet the adventurers....
Which two PCs form the front rank?

No one is remembering their +1 from my ability.

Hisao calls second rank

To see Nacht....

Perception 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

Perception 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

Perception 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

Perception 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Perception 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Perception 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

Nacht's spiderblend stealth renders him nigh invisible to the undead....

As FireSkorn and Nacht lead the band down the stairs, Nacht seems to vanish into the gloom....

Seconds later, the gaunt figures scramble into view, eyes burning red with unholy hunger!

Round 2
=======

Nacht's eyes narrow as it seems like the dead beings did not catch his scent or were too hungry to realize. That was the time to strike, he had prepared himself to crush them and finally be able to leave. Gripping the weapons tight Nacht's carapace slackens but muscle tissue grows and his four arms swing to sever limbs from the undead beings one by one. He positions himself as such when one is distracted with another combatant.

First attack against Flat Footed rest against AC, Add +2 if his can get a flank

Multi Lead Inspired Longsword Slash: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 162d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 5) + 4 = 14
Multi Lead Inspired Gladius Slash: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 151d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Multi Lead Inspired Gladius Slash: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 181d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Multi Lead Inspired Gladius Slash: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 91d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

He comes out of the veil and the insectile man seems much larger in musculature and each strike seemed to have a heavy sound on impact.

Full attack, throw on others if he drops one, Ant Focus for +2 STR AC is now 18. Also, See I remembered the inspire

Sorry, Fray -- I did that attack while getting ready to go to work this morning, just to get the combat started.

Add +1 damage to the Ghoul on which I began to slaughter.

Hisao disappears into the shadows First time! and moves in just steps behind Nacht. If the ghoul Nacht attacked survived then Hisao will move in to flank it and attack. Otherwise he will pick the closest target.

inspired blade attack on flat foot: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 1 = 91d6 + 1 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 1 + (3) = 7

Paddy dashes in, trying to skewer one of the undead monstrosities with his blade.

Die ya nasty little bugger!

attack: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 5 + 1 + 2 = 201d6 ⇒ 61d6 ⇒ 6 trying to go for a flank if possible, hence the +2and second d6

Jimeno approaches the ghouls with his lance held out, aiming to pierce them from a safer distance, from behind someone else preferably.

This adventuring is new to me, it seems it's not for these other people. Best hang back for now, though if they need me up front I will do my best.

Going for second row if there's still place. Let me know if i could attack from there with my lance, like a phalanx would; stab at it.

Round 2:

Will keep up the performance, hopefully someone will remember it.

Alphonse moves up and slashes a ghoul.

"Die foul creature!

1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26

Confirm: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25

Muhahahahaha.

8d4 + 28 ⇒ (2, 3, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 1) + 28 = 49

Hisao did not forget. Hisao also rolled very badly

Round 2

Under the Beetle Man's brutal, surgically precise cuts, two ghouls fall to pieces on the stairs!

A ghoul in the next rank hisses as the bolt plunges in....

Hisao disappears into the shadows First time! and moves in just steps behind Nacht. If the ghoul Nacht attacked survived then Hisao will move in to flank it and attack. Otherwise he will pick the closest target.

[dice=inspired blade attack on flat foot]1d20+5+1;1d6+1+1+1d6

Slipping into the space left as Nacht cuts down one of two ghouls, Hisao thrusts his wakizashi, sliding it into a ghoul in the second rank!

Edited

Paddy dashes in, trying to skewer one of the undead monstrosities with his blade.

Die ya nasty little bugger!

[dice=attack]1d20+5+1+2; 1d6; 1d6 trying to go for a flank if possible, hence the +2and second d6

8d4+28

Alphonse slaughters a ghoul with his scythe, it's rotten blood exploding in a black mist as the great crescent blade lays open its rib cage!

Three ghouls destroyed, a fourth badly damaged, and two in back unwounded.....

Jimeno approaches the ghouls with his lance held out, aiming to pierce them from a safer distance, from behind someone else preferably.

This adventuring is new to me, it seems it's not for these other people. Best hang back for now, though if they need me up front I will do my best.

You can reach the wounded ghoul....

ROUND ...2?

Jean Lamarre begins to wade from the real to the depths of his living memories and back, seeing the battle of Orleans, then these foul beings, incessantly. This does not hamper his vehemence, however, and he rushes onward, to pierce the flesh of the dead.

I WILL remember the +1 Manuel! Thank you!!! Also atk mod breakdown: +1 STR, +1 BAB, +1 Weapon Focus, +1 MR. MANUEL, +2 Charging

Longspear CHARGE: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 131d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Jimeno stabs at the wounded ghoul with his lance, hoping to finish it off.

Iommi-Tyr Magnusson Presents, Round: His Second:

Load & Shoot -- The lone Ghoul in the back that is NOT in Melee.
Seek & Destroy: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

(+1 BAB, +1 Point Blank, +1 DEX, +1 from Fray)

Challenge accepted, Iommi-Tyr.

Akio lets the others with shorter reach move to stay in front of him. Then uses his naginata to strike the beasts from behind his comrades.
1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
damage: 1d10 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

Load & Shoot -- The lone Ghoul in the back that is NOT in Melee.

[dice=Seek & Destroy]1d20+4
[dice=Damage]1d4+2

EDIT:

Paddy rushes forward, cursing unintelligibly in a mix of languages. He goes toward tge clisest ghoul and stabs it.

attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 71d6 ⇒ 2

Jimeno stabs at the wounded ghoul with his lance, hoping to finish it off.

** spoiler omitted **
[dice=Attack Lance]1d20+5;1d8+4

One of the two remaining ghouls shrieks as the young dragoon pierces its chest with his long spear!

Iommi-Tyr Magnusson Presents, Round: His Second:

Load & Shoot -- The lone Ghoul in the back that is NOT in Melee.
[dice=Seek & Destroy]1d20+4
[dice=Damage]1d4+2

(+1 BAB, +1 Point Blank, +1 DEX, +1 from Fray)

The bolt takes the already-wounded ghoul in its throat, and it collapses, tumbling back down the stairs into the dark ossuary with the clatter of bones and skulls!

The two remaining ghouls scramble over the bodies of their fallen fellows, snapping their rotten, slavering jaws at FireSkorn and the suddenly-visible Nacht....

At FireSkorn 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20 snaps down for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 damage....Fort DC 13 to avoid being paralyzed for 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 rounds....

At Nacht 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18 snaps down for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 damage....Fort DC 13 to avoid being paralyzed for 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 rounds....
