Stunned is not helpless.

3d20 ⇒ (8, 3, 11) = 22 ranged touch attacks all at +11 after minuses

Deafning song bolts fly (I don't think the deafening will matter but the damage is

3d10 ⇒ (10, 4, 4) = 18
3d10 ⇒ (10, 9, 2) = 21
3d10 ⇒ (4, 4, 8) = 16

Avoreal tries to finish the armored man.. She modifies a scorching ray to acid just in case and sends them at the man..

Ranged Touch : 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (1) + 18 = 19 miss..
Ranged Touch : 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (12) + 18 = 30
Ranged Touch : 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (13) + 18 = 31

Damage: 8d6 + 8 + 2d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 6, 5, 3, 4, 5, 1) + 8 + (6, 3) = 50

The armored man crumples to the floor in a heap.

The demon takes a fair amount of damage.

Just waiting on Lithuan for the accounting (though I expect he is dead).

He's got stoneskin up, but being stunned all those attacks hit prob.. Guess we should finished the last Glab first.. I honestly thought Lithuan would get to act again before it..

NOW Duhwoo will Coup D'Grace armor boy (just in case)!

Duhwoo will also take a good hard look through the passage to the southeast!

Duhwoo needs to attack the Glab and not worry about the unconscious man.. If Lithuan goes down that thing could kill us all.. Forget abt the man..

Im almost spell spent..

The man is not unconscious. He is a bubbling pool of acid with fleshy bits inside. He has around 20 HP before you blasted him.

Counting the stoneskin, Lithuan should he at -23 HP right now.

Yes, I'm dead at -23.

oh.

noting that there's no need to finish armor boy, Duhwoo will move up next to the remaining Glaberzu, LOOKING THROUGH THE PASSAGE TO THE SOUTHEAST as a free action along the way. Duhwoo will almost certainly be crit'd by the attack of opportunity as he closes on the demon -- since his Jingasa has been used up -- but he wants to get adjacent, so he can use his Step Up feat when that freak tries to step away and cast something. Then he will brandish his falchion pathetically in the general direction of his foe:

first attack: 1d20 + 33 - 12 ⇒ (15) + 33 - 12 = 36
20% miss chance due to blinking: 1d100 ⇒ 41
if AC 36 hits, then 2d4 + 30 ⇒ (3, 4) + 30 = 37 points of damage

crit confirm check: 1d20 + 33 - 12 ⇒ (11) + 33 - 12 = 32
if AC 32 confirms, then another 2d4 + 30 ⇒ (2, 3) + 30 = 35 points of damage

if Vuvu is still inspiring courage, there may be some bonuses to hit and damage...

forgot you sonic

There is a wall of shifting rainbow colors blocking passage to the SE.

The Glabrezu attempts to cast defensively.
1d20 ⇒ 3 fizzle

PCs are up.

with Vuvu's Inspire Courage bonus, add 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8 to that last damage.

"Dang you an' yer dadburn spells! I'm a-gonna larn ya to knock it off!"

first attack, with Inspire Courage and level drain: 1d20 + 33 + 3 - 12 ⇒ (18) + 33 + 3 - 12 = 42
20% miss chance due to blinking: 1d100 ⇒ 85
for 2d4 + 30 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (1, 4) + 30 + 3 + (4) = 42 points of damage...

crit confirm check: 1d20 + 33 + 3 - 12 ⇒ (8) + 33 + 3 - 12 = 32
if AC 32 hits, then 2d4 + 30 + 3 ⇒ (2, 1) + 30 + 3 = 36 points of crit damage...

iterative #1, with Inspire Courage and level drain: 1d20 + 24 + 3 - 12 ⇒ (18) + 24 + 3 - 12 = 33
20% miss chance due to blinking: 1d100 ⇒ 7
*** miss due to blinking ***

iterative #2, with Inspire Courage and level drain: 1d20 + 19 + 3 - 12 ⇒ (19) + 19 + 3 - 12 = 29
20% miss chance due to blinking: 1d100 ⇒ 88
if AC 29 hits, then 2d4 + 30 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (3, 4) + 30 + 3 + (4) = 44 points of damage

crit confirm check: 1d20 + 19 + 3 - 12 ⇒ (16) + 19 + 3 - 12 = 26
if AC 26 hits, then an additionall 2d4 + 30 + 3 ⇒ (2, 4) + 30 + 3 = 39 points of crit damage from the iterative

why couldn't I have rolled this well three rounds ago!?

Duhoo finishes off the demon before it can get another spell off.

did AC 32 confirm the crit? did Duhwoo confirm crit two rounds in a row? just curious...

Duhwoo races over to the fallen elf:

"What happened ta Lithuan?!? Ah wasn't even outa th' room fer but half a minute or so! Come on, l'il buddy -- we needs yer bow!"

verifying the Eldritch Knight is dead, Duhwoo will get up and start looking around, casting Detect Magic to aid his search:

"Let's grab whut we can, so them demons cain't get it back -- then let's git back to Ms Starseeker's house an figger out whut ta do next!"

He'll also look for surviving gear on the puddle of acid-melted fighter, stuffing whatever looks good into his Haversack. Then he'll carry Lithuan back to the Magnificent Mansion in his arms.

"That wuz some nice work, keepin' that there inspirin' per-form-unce going all that time, Vuvu! Ah shorely needed some extra insp'ration -- an' sometimes it just weren't enough, or ol' Mr Lithuan here might be a walkin' back with us. Good thing ya'lls casters gots so dang many smackin' down spells! That fight wuz a near thing fer us all..."

You critted twice, but only because it was unnecessary.

I did give Vuvu (I believe) a scroll of breath of life at some point.

Edit: Maybe it was a different module. Anyways I have one.

Too late for Breath of Life. He blasted the demon on the turn in which he could have used it.

turn sequence:

Demon tears you up
Vuvu hits demon with sonic bolts
Duhwoo runs up to smack demon
Demon tries to cast

You are beyond Breath of Life at this point.

do we find any good stuff on the fighter -- or the demons?

Sorry I did not remember that at all. If it was this mod it was 5 months of real time.

:(

Vuvu did nothing the round after Lithuan went down.. Why could he not use the scroll?

He castes the songbilts the round Lithuan died.. You have till the round after for the breath of life..

I actually think I gave it to Vuvu in the previous module; I hardly blame you for forgetting.

I searched 'breath' in gameplay and discussion: no joy

Whilst searching the area -- before picking up Lithuan and carrying him back -- Duhwoo is curious about the shimmering curtain to the southeast: he'll pull out his rope, summon a 1-hour horse using his wand of 'Mount', tie it onto the horse, and send it through the curtain. After two or three rounds, he'll reel it back using the rope.

He castes the songbilts the round Lithuan died.. You have till the round after for the breath of life..

From the spell:

If cast upon a creature that has died within 1 round, apply the healing from this spell to the creature.

The demon downs Lithuan.

Vuvu casts sonic blasts at demon

Demon casts spell

That period between the demon downing Lithuan and it casting (and fizzling a spell) is the one round window in which Breath of Life can be cast.

When that spell needs to be cast, it must be before the enemy acts again or it is too late. Hence the wording "within 1 round". The choice to blast the demon meant that Breath of Life was no longer an option.

The horse hits the curtain and is obliterated. It does not make it through the wall. You can spellcraft the wall if you wish.

I'll take 10 and id any spell up to level 9

Prsimatic Wall.

Avoreal frowns at Lithuan's death.. "We cannot go any further today.. My spell list is to depleted and with Lithuan dead and you drained so much it would be unwise, ntm we have no way to get rid of that wall atm.. I say we collect mister axe fellows gear and head back to the mansion for some rest.. We can rest for 8 hours and Vuvu will still be with us so.. That really seems to be our only option atm.. Thoughts?"

Sounds like a plan, should i try to dispel that barrier?

if Avoreal says so, he attempts it 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (17) + 16 = 33

Ok, because Vuvu was revived in the morning, you can squeeze in some hours of overlap with his mayfly rez and one bought of spell recovery.

I searched 'breath' in gameplay and discussion: no joy

I was indeed remembering a previous module. No matter.

Sweet..

"I would rather you wait till i have my full complement of spells before you do.. Perhaps Vars can be talked into joining us tm.."

By all means keep that good roll though! And here comes the dreaded fort rolls to see if the neg levels are perma..

Vars still believes it is suicide to continue without fixing the people who are either dead or depleted.

I just dont see any other option besides aborting the mission.. I mean can we head back to golarion without killing the module?

well if you have a suggestion as to how to leave and cone back...

once the party arrives back at Avoreal's lodge, Duhwoo sets Lithuan's body on the main table in the place. He fusses over the body for quite a bit of time, several minutes, trying to get it arranged in the most dignified manner he can, while the full impact of his friend's death sets in. Then Duhwoo just sits and cries his eyes out for about 10 minutes.

A little later, he seeks out Vars:

"Ya'll mebbe wuz right, Lord Vars: it's poss'ble we may not-a been quite up ta th' task o' goin' on. If'n Ah'd stayed with Lithuan, tho, 'stead o' runnin' inta that other room to git that fighter -- well then Ah reckon that crazy ol' elf prob'ly wouldn't be a-decoratin' that table like he is now! Ah shore wish he was here ta sing one o' them weird elf dirges or somethin'!"

Duhwoo chokes up a bit, rallies, and continues:

"Ah reckon we needs ta git to th' nearest Pathfinder Lodge -- an' if'n that means abortin', then by golly we gotta abort. If that there Dee-cem-vy-rate really wants ol' Osprey back that bad, they kin fix us up an' figger out how ta git us back here. Or they kin send another bunch o' Seekers."

Duhwoo pauses for a bit:

"Ya missed a heck of a fight, buddy! Dangerous as all git out, fer sure -- but we kilt us a few dee-mons, yessiree; we done that!"

Not sure if it was made clear, but you arrived via a gate from Golarion which had a twin here on the Moon. It can be used to go back and forth. Alternatively, once you get down to Golarion, you can buy a scroll of interplanetary teleport and just beam back up to any place you have been up here.

There are some consequences in terms of replacements if you leave, but the module does not fundamentally change.

Oh, and because the first GM was not familiar with PFS, he did not recognize Osprey as your target of rescue, which is why he substituted Dreng. We can probably go back to Osprey since he has a closer link to the Decemvirate.

We cant be that far from finishing.. We sleep and get a few teleports to get us back to the gate pronto.. We port to Golarion and teleport again, restock, get restorations/raise deads and head back same day via purchased scroll.. Thoughts? Even if some of the monsters are replaced if we do this all same day it cant be much.. Plus we'd be at full strength again..

Duhwoo will do whatever Vars does...

As before Vars is in favor of being at full strength for any continuance (which in this case is a final fight).

After 8 hours of rst Avoreal takes an hour to get her spells then she's ready to go.. She uses greater teleport to get the group back to the portal to golarion.. Once back she'll use her contingency to port them to the Absalom lodge..

1d100 ⇒ 16 port is good..

Once there we can get Lithuan and Vuvu raised and Duhwoo and Vars healed up.. Avoreal will replace some needed spell compnonets.. Afterwards she'll purchase scroll of greater teleport..

"I can get us back to gate and then we use the scroll to return to the prismatic wall room.. Sound good?"

Getting 1000gps on diamond dust as well.. 3375 spent..

Sure... Vuvu says Groggily

[ooc] anyone know off hand how much prestige I just spent?

I forgot about yall needing to res after your raised.. I can get the spells to get us back and not have to buy a scroll..

There is a bit of cart before the horse here. There are guards at the gate when you get there.

Let's do init.

It's the same type of guards as used to be there when you got here. Three succubi mounted on shantaks.

bad guy init: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25

This on the way out or the way in? - i.e. do the dead still lay dead?

On the way out, so you are still room temperature, Vuvu is on borrowed time, and Vars and Duhwoo are gimped.

However, this encounter was a walkthrough on the way in if you recall, so I'd hardly panic.

Of course you will have to fight them yet again on the way back in if you use the gate again.

Init: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12

Lol I cleared out my spells because the greater teleport would put us right on the gate.. Could we not just step through? If not she would have several spells active..

Greater False Life: 2d10 + 15 ⇒ (4, 4) + 15 = 23

The gate has to be activated once you get there.

Of course the guards might object to the procedure.

Understand.. You have my initiative and spells active..

No way! Don't pin that one me!!!!

Heh. Alright, I guess I don't remember who it was then.

Lithuan, you might as well use full attacks. Neither Duh or I have access to pounce and if Avoreal is going to move them out of melee range, it's just going to drag things out.

You both appear to be within a 5 ( or 10', in the case of Duwoo) step of a worm to me.

OK, my bad. Didn't check the map. But still, you don't need to conserve arrows. No reason for you to skimp on kills.

dm don't forget the bleed damage!! lol

Sorry it was that or Boneshatter and i dont think worm have bones so..

Fair enough. Wonder if you can just bounce them off the walls.

I think we should all just pull back and watch them try to hit Vars

It says pushed back away from the caster so i assume in the opposite direction.. So if a wall was behind it than yea i guess so..

Im gonna extend a mass fly Lithuan if you can handle the mass planetary adaptation..

Before heading back out Avoreal is casting..

Extended Mass Fly-5hrs on everyone
Moment of Prescience-Self
Greater False Life-Self
Extended Heroism-Self
Extended Communal Resist Fire-60mins each
Extended Mirror Image-Self
Extended Shield-Self

G. False Life: 2d10 + 15 ⇒ (7, 6) + 15 = 28

Will also cast the Limited Wish on the Lillend if we can get another 750 in diamonds..

I am at a gaming con this weekend (until Sunday evening). My posting will be sporadic. Bot me as needed.

my brother is at the same con

what are you playing this weekend? You guys might be at a table together

I am playing a few slots of Pathfinder, and running 3 slots of Serial Pulp Adventures (local living campaign) and 3 slots of a classic Mutants and Masterminds 3 adventure that I wrote.

my brother just got killed on bonekeep. Don't know the details but they teleported somewhere and someoe detonated a necklace of fireballs and my brother took 130 damage

Bonekeep is a meat grinder.

Just played Library of the Lion. It was low tier so I just brought a diposable 1st level beatstick character. I should have brought a cot.

It had library in the title. What did you expect?

I didn't expect a snoozefest of that order of magnitude.

my falcata-wielding fighter, Rhonda Lero, got turned into a wraith, then was destroyed by her former party.

Today? Same convention?

Yup.

Nice!

I wonder if any of you will play w my brother
His name is Steve

I bet everyone is glad they aren't playing an Aasimar Paladin right now. The damage total before the save for them would have been 281.

Stupid aassimar paladins!

The map is updated. I arranged people so far, but you can adjust. Vars and Duhwoo were moved up for their attacks.

Duhwoo should be on the same one I am. That's what he stated. I doubt he would have bothered trying to move for a flank.

I think I got everyone in the right spot now.

I'm changing who you two were on, otherwise you would be swimming.

I believe the mass fly is still going, so swimming is not an issue.

She recat extended mass fly upon exiting the mansion.. Everyone has 5 hours of flight from that..

May I inquire what the effect was that was blocking blindsight?

Gaseous form

moved myself, are the squares still 10 ft squares?

yep, they are 10' squares

I will be on a ski trip starting this evening. At best my posting will be sporadic.
I'll be back for regular posting come Sunday. Bot me as needed.

I feel that a bit of mapping might be useful for this particular labyrinth.

Cough...

The map is updated. The squares are 10'. Please position yourselves for entering the room, then Avoreal and Lithuan can go.

The Core rulebook FAQ that sez rays are treated as weapons:
<http://paizo.com/paizo/faq/v5748nruor1fm#v5748eaic9oag>

Yep, Rays are treated as weapons.

Please use non-party member tokens for any summoned creatures. There are over 30 tokens on the map. Using party member tokens only confuses the matter. The exception would be if, somehow, you are appearing as another character. Even elementals and demons look different from one another.

Note I am working SWINGshifts all this week -- no access to the internet between 13:30 and 22:30 Mountain Time, through Saturday...

I just found out that the robes im wearing have been put on the banned list for pfs.. Was reading player resources and saw it.. Im gonna sell back and repurchase my cloak of resist +5 and just bank the rest of the gold for now..

Sell back = 67000
Purchase +5 Cloak = 25000

Bank 42000

What robes?

The kimono was banned? Whatever for?

Odd I think the kimono is on done AR's. Jade regent maybe

I dunno why but this is from the additional resources page..

All items from Chapter 5 are legal for play except as noted below.
Equipment: All items on pages 208–325, except ampoule of false blood, beneficial bandolier, bone razor, bracer's of falcon's aim, cauldron of the undead, collar of the true companion, darkskull, horn of evil, otherworldly kimono, orb of foul abaddon, quick runner's shirt, robe of the archmagi (black), stalker's mask, and talons of Leng are legal for play.

Maybe because it adds +4 to caster level checks? I dunno..

by the time you can get it though, you kind of need that.
