Mists of Mwangi (Inactive)

Game Master Tyranius

[b] Lets try to hasten our search a bit.[/b[ Leena casts detect magic in hopes of being able to separate the crates that have mundane items against those with magic.

Leena is unable to detect any magical artifacts in the area.

Renli exits the storage room and turns toward his companions. "Well, guess it seems we have one destination left, the door at the end of the hallway - shall we be on to the grand exhibit chamber, and the grand finale of our quest? With any luck we will find the curator, end the curse, and restore our companions in time to get to the pub for a pint!"

Renli tightens his belt and heads for the hallway, sword in one hand, trusty walking cudgel in the other.

Lymwin follows Renli, a bomb in her hand.

"C'mon, Remue. I'm ready to get back to normal.... Billin and Remue follow Renli.

As Renli enters the hallway, he turns to the others. In a whisper "Move quietly if you can"

stealth: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Reaching the door to the grand exhibit hall, Renli presses his ear against it and tries to listen through.

perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Billin tries to follow Renli's instructions. "Shhh, boy," he whispers to Remue.

Billin's stealth: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
Remue's stealth: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14

Lymwin tries to be stealthy as well.
Stealth Lymwin: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11

azalia bounds down the hall abaaa ba baaa! just kidding.
Stealthoid 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

GM roll: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24

As Renli places his ear to the door he hears what sounds like a room full of monkeys.

Turning to the others, he whispers, "Sounds like a host of monkeys..."

Gingerly he opens the door a crack and peers in.

stealth to open door: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
perception to peak in: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

Leena tries to walk as silently as she can.
Leena whisperss [b]Better get ready because based on the maps this is the last room. Maybe this time we can be the ones doing the surprising.

Stealth: 1d20 ⇒ 15

Leena casts Shield.
AC is 20 for next minute

Did we clear the offices? I don't remember going in there...

Alzalia readies herself.

perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

As Renli opens the door he hears an ear shattering roar cut through the building.

A long hallway leads to this grand hall, wherein the Blakros
Museum shows off its finest collections. Mock vines cling to
the walls and hang from the fifty-foot-high domed ceiling,
and huts of grass are strewn about the open area. At the
center of this sprawling chamber, a miniature replica of a
traditional Mwangi ziggurat rises out of the mist to a height
of nearly twenty feet. At the top of the ziggurat, a rail-thin
elven gentleman is strapped to an altar, his bare chest
painted with strange sigils and monkey paw-shaped blots
of paint.

The room is filled with a cacophony of noise as the walls are lined with more apes, baboons and other monkeys than you have seen yet, spitting, howling and cavorting about the ziggurat.

As the terrifying howl shatters the noise, bringing the room to a temporary silence as the primates scatter to reveal the largest ape yet, the gorilla Da'Tunga!

The rest of the monkeys are now scattered an take up the 5 foot area near the walls around the room on the North, South and Eastern wall

In the chaos you are able to catch a small glimpse of movement, something darting amongst the apes, grass huts and mist.

Billin's Perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
Remue's Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21

"Look there's a little idol trying to get closer to the gorilla!"

You all still with me?

Well, looks like it's my turn. Hope you guys weren't waiting for me!

Azalia snakes her way through her friends and into the room, sidestepping to the south, drawing out her jar of alchemist's fire

You are one ugly thing! she says. Don't get to close to it! It will toss you for a loop!

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18 ranged touch

Assuming you allow the potion to be drawn as a "weapon"

1d6 ⇒ 2 fire. I try not to hit the innocent guy. But sometimes innocents get in the way in Pathfinder...

Still here :) Waiting for Lymwin's turn. I hope I can throw a bomb this time without hurtin innocents or companions.

Given that Leena cast Shield before we entered, and she is our one serious melee character, I would surmise she would move to attack. Up to you mr GM man

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Renli scans the room but is unable to see this little idol. He moves into the chamber cautiously, eyeing the army of primates around the chamber. While his goal is to rescue the bound-crazed elven man, the mighty Gorilla poses more of a threat at the moment. Dropping his walking stick to free up a hand, he utters some strange language while gesturing at the jungle giant.

move action: walk SE-SE-SE-E-E; standard action: cast Daze on the gorilla, will DC 13

I am still here. I thought Tik Taan had an action still
Leena will hustle forward and cast Acid Splash on the big ape (not Azalia)
Acid Splash Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
move to one square west of the Square with 7 in it.

Azalia if you go to the South you will not have Line of Sight of the ape. Do you just want to move / draw alchemist fire?

The Tik Taan begins to cast a spell as Da Tunga seems to seem a little more resilient.

Leena rushes in and hurls a glob of acid at the beast. The room begins to smell of burned skin and fur as the gorilla roars.

The gorilla begins to shake it's head as it's mind becomes very clouded but quickly clears as the gorilla shakes it's head, slightly confused

will save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13

Billin struggles mightily to get Remue to close with the scary gorilla. They come to rest due South of Leena.

Ride to keep hands free: 1d20 ⇒ 3

Lymwin enters the room E, E, E, NE and throws a bomb at the gorilla. at the square with the gorillas right arm

Ranged Touch Bomb: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23 DC 13 Reflex save for half splash damage if it hits the guy in the middle
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
Additional Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

As far as I know splash damage is not doubled on a crit, but a bomb is considered as a weapon therefore it can crit. But please correct me if I'm wrong. It's my first time playing an alchemist, first bomb thrown.

Billin moves into the room as Lymwin stes forward and hurls a bomb at the gorilla. The bomb soars straight at the gorilla and erupts right at the base of the gorillas neck hurling large chunks of gorilla all over the room

Nice Crit

Na, I'd rather move wherever I can get the shot in so I don't lose the turn. Due east 30 ft? Because for this round I'm...

After throwing the flask of burning liquid Azalia draws a dagger and tosses it at the monkey...

ranged 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 for 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

But said dagger merely flys past the hulking creature, hitting the opposite wall and chattering onto the floor.

Da Tunga is dead. so I will change your target to the idol.

Azalia hurls a dagger at the idol as it clatters off of the wall into the mist below.

The idol turns it's back as it hurls a sharp piece of wood from itself at Azalia. The splinter hits Azalia as itembeds itself in her with little effect

splinter: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24
damage: 1d2 - 4 ⇒ (1) - 4 = -3

Billin and Remue close with the idol into the square NW of the idol. Remue chomps at the idol as Billin swings his morningstar.

Ride check to keep hands free: 1d20 ⇒ 12
Remue's bite, attack roll: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5; Remue's bite, damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Billin's attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22; Billin's damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Leena will swiftly hustle to the idol one square north.

Leena's sword glimmers faintly as she swings at the idol.
[ooc]Swift action Arcane pool use

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23 Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Confirm: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22 Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Lymwin moves closer to the idol (E, E, E, E) and draws her crossbow.

With the combines efforts of the attacks the idol cracks down the middle, falling to the ground in dozens of splinters.

As the idol falls to the ground the mist begins to dissipate within moments and the mad and furies monkeys begin to calm down, as much as monkeys can, as the flee in a mass of chaos out the door. Even Nigel at the top of the Ziggurat begins to calm a bit as he is no longer screaming and growling all about the place and instead is calling for help. Get me down from here!

Combat Over

Taking stock of the room and the fleeing monkeys, Renli checks for anymore would-be assailants.

perception: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 2 = 10

Sheathing his weapons, Renli trusts in his luck one more time as he climbs up the Ziggurat and unties Nigel.

climb: 1d20 + 0 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 0 + 2 = 13

As he undoes Nigel's bonds, he smiles. "Greetings good sir. I am Renli Rumblebelly, explorer, chronicler, slayer of monsters, romancer of women, hero of the ages - and you have just been rescued by agents of the Pathfinder Grand Lodge."

Renli unties the shaken man as he slowly climbs down from the Ziggurat.
Thank You, Thank You so much. I am incredibly grateful for the assistance

With the curse of the Tik Taan ended, the Blakros Museum slowly begins to return to business as usual (after some clean up) Nigel speaks with the party momentarily I am eternally grateful that Adril sent you all here and to show my appreciation I have a few gifts. Nigel wanders over to a cabinet and soon pulls out a few items. Here is an ancient Mwangi spear that Chelish explorers found near the colony of Sargava during the reign of the expansionist Chelish prince, Haliad I. The spear is a bejeweled masterwork quality spear with brittle, white bird feathers tied with crumbling leather straps beneath the still-sharp spearhead.

Also I would like to give you something that may be of some significance to Pathfinders. The man unclothes a cracked mulberry pentacle stone. This is an ioun stone. Some of these stone can be placed within a wayfinder to crate fantastical magical effects. Sadly the stones that I own are not capable of such resonance.

As the days pass and the museum is soon back in order the friendship with Nigel and the hulking venture Captain is repaired. More importantly though, he now makes all of the Blakros Museum's vast collection available to the Society for study and considers re-petitioning membership.

Good game guys!

I will get chronicles out later today

Need pFS information from Billin still

Chronicles are out. Let me know if there are any issues
