MiniGM's Curse of the Crimson Throne E6 (Inactive)

Game Master Vuvu

Phone posting ATM and using a dice rolling app, so my rolls will be off screen for a bit

The other heroes draw weapons, fortunately the lamms do not speak up and our heroes get the drop on the gnome

you win init.

A bright spray of colors flies across the room frightening the lamms, one collapses another seems to ignore it and screams in fear, the gnome doesn't seem phased at all

everyone else take your first round. Bazzle you have a move left

Should I wait? I moved my character with my stealth for the surprise round... Not sure we're still on it or already first round :)

You may act, you stealthy do in surprise, you just won init so you are up

Kazadarin moves to the door way and lets his arrow fly towards the gnome and in the blink of an eye another follows the first.

Crit damage2d8 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (4, 3) + 4 + 2 = 13

The gnome slumps to the ground

The lamms begins to scream

Sense motive one tells you it is mostly terror. They think you are going to kill them too, they grab their pitchforks and make ready to defend themselves

Kazadarin lowers his bow and hold out his right hand towards the Lambs. Peace little ones! We are friends."

1d20 ⇒ 18 diplo

Why are you here? Lamm will kill you! And us for not fighting you!

diplomacy: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Bazzle looks at the kids, "If we are successful. Lamm will bother no one ever again." He points to the kid who got caught in the color spray. "Look to you friend he is not hurt. He will wake and return to his old self shortly."

The pitchforks lower

But if you get rid of him the. We will have nothing

"We can find you help." He turns to Kara, "Kara, is your church the care for the orphans type?"

all eyes turn to Kara...oooo the suspense

If they can't I might a knew a few folk who wouldnt mind helping... bout as tall as you squirts are as well. He said patting Sebastion who thumped his tail twice.

diplomancy: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

All of us? We don't like him much but at least we have food. Can we pet your dog mister? one says as the fear starts to subside and the kid-ishness comes out

"We will help you as best as we can. Is there a place you all can go for now to get clear of here?"

Kids, wait, please... - Donnen said, approaching the small ones - ... the murder of the merchant. The one where the fisherman witnessed, and accused Jared Phelps.

He takes his cloth off the face, revealing a smile. He wasn't handsome or anything, but at least he was a Human face, and talking in a friendly manner.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Do you know anything about it? Jared was my brother. He was framed... And I know Gaedren was the culprit.

1d100 ⇒ 18

The kid shakes his head. Sorry mister, lots of people die, usually people don't see any thing...that's kind of the rule...but I dunno.

Can I insist and go around?

You can do whatever you like. Not sure what go around means...

Bazzle notes Donnen's plea and frowns in sympathy. He looks back to the kids. "Is there a place where you can all go. For now to get clear of here. Once we have dealt with Lamm we will find you."

there is a nearby roof that we could all go hide in! a 5 year old shouts

I meant go around and ask other children. I'd insist until I was sure none of the kids inside knew anything, taking 10 for diplomacy if possible

Bazzle looks around curiously and puts a finger to his lips. "Not sure this is working. Where is this?" He looks to one of the older kids. "Do you know where this little one means?"

Bazzle looks to Kazaman, "Watch the door shouting might draw attention."

About how many kids is this. And how loud. I work with kids I know this is going to be hard.

You can try. Keep in mind that is likely to get annoying...they are kids. Go ahead and play it out

Alright... - he looks at the kids - ... I'm adding 1 silver piece to anyone that has information tying Gaedren to the murder. Anything that could potentially prove my brother's innocence.

He holds his entire pouch of coins out of their reach.

Kazadarin groans and shakes his head. He then looks for one of the oldest Lambs. "You there. I was a Lamb like you. How many friends has he killed? How many still "Go live in the Country"? I am going to kill him. This will stop. Now, where is that whore son?"

As soon as donnen brings out coin he is mobbed

I heard his name was frank!

. The killer owed him money

. The innocent guy had a fight with Lamm!

.the mirderer always wears a brown cloaks!

the killer skipped town!

Lamm is in his office probably the boy says

They are making a huge racket

Btw did anyone want to stabilize the gnome?

"Where is his office?"

go through the door there. (North). Though I suspect giggles is in there so be careful, then there is a door on the far end, that's where the office is

Bazzle facepalms.

"This is getting noisy." Bazzle looks up. "Okay okay you like coins." I am going to have to hock something after this I think. Bazzle looks for the oldest kid preferably one who looks like he has clout in the group.

perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
sense motive: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (7) - 1 = 6

"Stay quiet and we'll all get breakfast. First you all need to go hide someplace safe. You." He points to the kid he thinks might be a leader, "Where will you all gather? Quick."

There are 15 kids reaching for silver right now. I assume you pay them all

Two buildings over we will hide out on the roof...and a real breakfast? like pastries? He salivates

"Yes. A real breakfast. No you all need to go. Fast." He directs them back out the way they came in.

Donnen goes and tries to stabilize the gnome.

He might be able to talk something more useful. - he says - Otherwise, if I can't find anything to innocent my brother, I will have to keep Lamm alive.

Heal: 1d20 ⇒ 8

GM: Please assume Donnen will insist until the gnome is stabilized or dead, no matter who manages to get him to stop bleeding.

Kazadarin pulls a metal vial from his pouch and drinks it.

Potion cure light.

Kaz is there a reason you don't roll your healing? 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Donnen failed to stabilize the gnome. But he keeps trying and finally succeeds

4d20 ⇒ (10, 7, 11, 19) = 47

The gnome is stable.

What are you going to do?

Did the kids leave?

"We should bind and gag this jerk just incase. We don't need him screaming. Though I doubt seriously we have maintained secrecy."

yes after donnen pays 15 silver

Bazzle points to the three different doors leading further into the complex. North door in A7 and the 2 doors in A1 "Which way?"

The kid pointed to the north

Kazadarin resets his bow and stands near the north door. "Get those kids out of here. We have work to finish."

kids are gone.

"Someone open the door."

Kaz is 10' from the door set with his arrow drawn to take a shot as needed.

anyone?

"Donnen you were peering at the last door you opened like it might bite you want to try this one or should I kick it in?"

Donnen does a check on the door and finds no traps, then Bazzle opens it up.

The floor here is slick with seawater, bits of seaweed, and fish
blood—the air is thick with the accompanying scent. Wooden
catwalks to the north and south allow access to the western
part of the fishery, while the floor here is only five feet above the
river below. An open bay to the south allows direct access to the
sloppy, muddy water, while to the northwest stands an immense
ten-foot-tall wooden vat, its sides caked and waterproofed with
tar. Inside is a foul-looking mixture of chum, seawater, and
who knows what else. To the east are stacked many barrels and
crates, each marked in paint with a fish. Nearly two dozen small
hammocks hang from under the catwalks, each with its own
ratty blanket and pillow.

In the room are several of the Lamms being shouted at by a half orc, who is armed with a flail and also has a javelin in hand, obviously he was waiting for that door to open

luckily you can't ready outside of combat...so rolling init

5d20 ⇒ (14, 7, 13, 8, 6) = 48 Jerky mcjerkface wins.

He moves to the bottom of the steps and flings his javelin at Bazzle

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9, that Javelin slams into the door jam with a sickening crunch.
