MiniGM's Legacy of Fire (Inactive)

Game Master Vuvu

Kix determines that these are Spikestone guardians and likely to attack if you start monkeying around with the wrong thing.

you know they are constructs and you can ask about 4 other things

want to make a roll for the prisoner Kix?

I thought I was including them, but sure. DR, special attacks, vulnerabilities.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (10) + 22 = 32
Knowledge (Arcana): 1d20 + 29 ⇒ (9) + 29 = 38

Ware the statues, they're spikestone guardians which are _____?

Are these unique monsters, because I, the player, haven't heard of them before?

from the Tome of Horrors

DR Adamantine, no vulnerabilities, They can shoot spikes and as they move spikes surround them effecting anyone stepping into range or out of range with them

Kix also realizes that to get the protean out you have to either break away the stone stone with hardness of stone, or find a way to soften the stone or shape it away.

you get one more question so I will tell you resistant to fire elec and cold

"You need Churley to break big rock? "

since all of you are experienced enough to know that this is going to be a fight, remember good one liners get bonuses. if i groan yo will get +1 on a d20 roll of your choice, if I smile +1 on the same if I actually laugh then something better.

Well, it looks like these creatures damage anything near them, and they're resistant to the trinity - electric, fire and cold damage, not to mention non-adamantine weaponry. Get ready to rumble.

Kixzik will get set.

Oh, and as you can guess, we'll need to either destroy the stone around the Protean, or somehow weaken the stone to let it slough off.

Map up? Sorry, can't check at work.

No map. 50x 50

Protean in middle statues 20 feet to the north and south of it

Zephyr gets some distance and positions her ursine familiar in front of her protectively.

"Ready when you are boys."

Churley ready to rock!"

Did you embiggen your familiar zephyr?

It got polymorphed into a bear during the last fight. The polymorph lasts 16 minutes.

Attacking the nearest guardian, excluding any of his companions and the statue from the blast.

Kixzik with the windup and the pitch!

Attack (Acid Bomb): 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (10) + 16 = 26
Damage (Acid Bomb): 4d6 + 9 ⇒ (1, 5, 2, 6) + 9 = 23

If I get sneak attack add...

Sneak Attack: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 2) = 5

And anyone hit takes...

Acid Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2 Next Round

At the beginning of the next round, Kixzik will look at the lingering acid damage and say...

Something's eating away at you, I can tell.

Alright. Everyone take a surprise round action

Zephyr channels her goddess’s might to empower her allies.

Battle spirit. +1 morale to attack and damage for four rounds.

Her familiar huffs aggressively but holds his ground for now.

Heeding Kixzik's words, Seif-al-Din fires an arrow at one of the constructs.

Targeting the same one as Kixzik.

+1 Adaptive Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 16 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 16 + 1 + 1 = 33, for 1d8 + 11 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 11 + 1 + 1 = 15 Adamantine damage.

Churley will also echo the attack with his stark knife.

to hit: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (2) + 15 = 17 miss

The statue seems to take damage, they animate and begin to move, but heroes win init so go again.

Seif-al-Din unleashes a flurry of arrows!

+1 Adaptive Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 30, for 2d8 + 22 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (7, 7) + 22 + 2 + 2 = 40 Adamantine damage.
+1 Adaptive Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 20, for 1d8 + 11 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 11 + 1 + 1 = 16 Adamantine damage.
+1 Adaptive Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 18, for 1d8 + 11 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 11 + 1 + 1 = 19 Adamantine damage.
+1 Adaptive Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 20, for 1d8 + 11 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 11 + 1 + 1 = 14 Adamantine damage.

Those were some fairly rubbish rolls :-/

The first attack drops the first and two other arrows slam into the other

Zephyr continues to empower her allies while preparing a counter spell.

Readying to disrupt in case these things turn out to be casters.

Kixzik will cheerfully throw another acid bomb into the most weakened creature.

Attack (Acid Bomb): 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (6) + 16 = 22
Damage (Acid Bomb): 4d6 + 9 ⇒ (4, 2, 3, 3) + 9 = 21

Lingering Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Take this acid! All your base are belong to us, so it's the least I can do!

Obviously excluding my companions squares from the attack.

Churley will also toss at the guardian.

to hit: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26 damage: 1d4 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17 cold: 1d6 ⇒ 1
to hit: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (20) + 13 = 33 damage: 1d4 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17 cold: 1d6 ⇒ 2
to hit: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17 damage: 1d4 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17 cold: 1d6 ⇒ 6

confirm: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19 damage: 2d4 + 26 ⇒ (4, 4) + 26 = 34

that got a groan because it stank of effort Kix, you get the bonus

Beatrice launches arrows after having drawn a bow last round

both hit, but barely do any damage.

It moves straight for Churly, and it has reach in case someone tries to move in to attack you know

1d20 + 17 ⇒ (6) + 17 = 23 but it misses

go ahead and kill it!

Sensing an impending kill, Seif-al-Din 5' steps back, and unleashes another flurry of arrows.

"Do you get the point?"

+1 Adaptive Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 31, for 2d8 + 22 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (7, 7) + 22 + 2 + 2 = 40 Adamantine damage.
+1 Adaptive Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 19, for 1d8 + 11 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 11 + 1 + 1 = 14 Adamantine damage.
+1 Adaptive Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 9 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 17, for 1d8 + 11 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 11 + 1 + 1 = 21 Adamantine damage.
+1 Adaptive Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 26, for 1d8 + 11 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 11 + 1 + 1 = 15 Adamantine damage.

It crumbles to dust...so endeth the lamest fight ever!

"Dust to Dust... Rocks to rubble."

He then gestures at the rock-encrusted creature.

"Shall we use the final vial?"

Listen you, there are only so many acid puns and they all involve bases.

Kixzik will climb down and agree.

Let's hope he's not, you know, insane.

Zephyr stops channeling and nods in agreement with Seif’s suggestion. ”Try it. We don’t have many other options.”

"Churley thinks Churley can break up rock with starknife."

"Very well."

Seif-al-Din moves forward, and applies the remaining vial to the creature, trying to pour it all along the creature's body in an effort to maximise the chances of releasing it.

i am confused. are you freeing it or making it so it can be transported easier

Freeing it?

That's the idea at least.

Ok

In only 5 minutes time the protean is free and unconscience

Seif-al-Din calls upon Erastil, and channels holy energy.

Healing: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 5) = 10.

Assuming that wakes the Protean up...

"Hello! We were sent by your colleagues to free you..."

Its eyes open and immediately it begins to scream, in obvious fear at what you might do to him...then suddenly it vanishes.

you make make one round of actions

"Right. Time to get out of here..."

"I tend to agree. Let's make haste!"

"How Churley make haste? Only magic make haste!" but he will look around for an exit.

"Just follow Seif out. Quickly!"

where? you all jumped down a hole and didnt set a rope. no obvious exits.

Zephyr reshapes her familiar again, this time into the form of a monstrous bat. "Carry us to safety dear."

Polymorph familiar into a dire bat to carry us up.

Ok that covers your action. Anyone else got an action they want to take?

Churley will take out a rope so whoever rides the bat up can secure it so the rest can climb.

Kixzik will announce as loudly as possible in Auran.

You have nothing to fear from us, we were sent by your leader to free you!

Seif-al-Din waits patiently for the bat-e-vator to be ready...

Poof

We thank you. How may we assist you for the next minute?
