Myrial, City of Rogues (Inactive)

Game Master Rynjin

*Retroactively advises Chimmon to summon the creature in a position where it'd be flanking with Korak once he landed his attack.* ><'

In case I go to sleep before chimon post, Jo most likely will 5ft and cast invisibility on herself

And ekhaterina intimidate check

Demoralize: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22 - (minus something from being small)

Rynjin, I think you misinterpreted my post - I was only five-foot-stepping, because I needed a full-round action to do the spell.

Chimon completes his spell with the words, "Confinement is peace!" and summons a gigantic, red-speckled orb weaver (fiendish giant spider) into the clearing. The monster shoots a sticky wad of webbing at the shaman, then moves closer to distract it from Korak.

Up to Rynjin on whether I can get it to actually do that; it may just charge ahead, but I'm guessing the more sedentary orb weaver would prefer to web THEN grab its foe.

Web ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13 DC 12

Watching the spider with a small smile, Chimon shouts encouragement to Jo and Korak, emboldening their efforts.

Inspiring command again on both of them.

Well... Technically, I act after you, so Korak would benefit from Inspiring Command at very least (+2 to attack rolls! :D). I only posted first because I wasn't sure if you'd still post today... In any case, I'm going to bed. GN, everyone.

The spider's web misses, but the effort of dodging it puts teh Shaman right in the path of Korak's knee.

Jo.

I already say what my actions are. Ekhaterina demoralize, then 5 ft and invisibility on Jo.

Wait...the shaman was shaken, that is a -2 to his saves, so he fails the save against hideous laughter *Dance of victory*

Will save re-roll: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32

The Shaman briefly looks as though he's going to succumb to Jo's attack, but a burst of pure good luck keeps him from failing.

Jo invisibles and moves away.

The Shaman tries his luck at slashing Korak.

And I just remembered his attack roll should have been 2 higher, and Jo takes 4 more damage.

Attack 1: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24

DIVINE POWAH: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (14) + 14 = 28

Iterative: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

Damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (5, 5) + 16 = 26

Korak, take 16 damage. And you and Chimon are up!

Wait, wait, wait, s$*!, that's not how the Fortune Hex works. The Shaman failed.

The Shaman falls over laughing.

That 20 is its SECOND round save, then.

It is Prone next to Korak and its boar on the other side of that pit. Jo is unharmed.

The spider tries, ineffectually, to bite the shaman. It then springs back five feet, out of reach of the scary bright flame.

Bite (flanking): 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 2 = 8 B/S/P: 1d6 ⇒ 5 Swift for smite good, so +3 damage if the orc is good-aligned; also, this isn't accounting for prone but it probably still misses. Five-foot step backwards after attacking.

Chimon shouts more encouragement to his companions.

'Nother round of inspiring command. Down to 4/8.

( •_•)>⌐■-■
(⌐■_■)

Quick post because I'm in a hurry! (Alreaey considering the bonus from prone, inspiring command and flanking). This is my action for my next turn... Assuming the shaman doesn't leave or do anything that would stop me from full attacking.

EDIT: Since the shaman will probably stand up on his turn, I removed the bonus from prone. Flanking and Inspiring Command remain.

IUS: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (10) + 21 = 31 damage: 1d8 + 25 ⇒ (6) + 25 = 31
IUS: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (11) + 21 = 32 damage: 1d8 + 21 ⇒ (5) + 21 = 26
IUS: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (3) + 21 = 24 damage: 1d8 + 21 ⇒ (4) + 21 = 25

IUS: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (6) + 16 = 22 damage: 1d8 + 21 ⇒ (7) + 21 = 28

Claw: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24 damage: 1d6 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15
Claw: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (19) + 14 = 33 damage: 1d6 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14

Phew... Got the bus in time...

Oh, I forgot to add! If he enters ferocity, Korak starts dealing non-lethal damage.

The Shaman enters his Ferocity.

I'm assuming your "tiger knee" was the AoO he provoked from standing up.

Which makes it...Jo?

Orchis:You can that a cleric of gorum? HAHAHAHA! - Taking 10 for 25 in demoralize.

Aid another Ekhaterina: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

although I'm not sure if the boar is still alive, in that case the action is DAZe DC 19 to the boar and Ekhatherina roll is the demoralize

Boar Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

The Boar shrugs off Jo's enchantment due to its Devotion to its master.

The Shaman scowls at the group, but knows when he's beaten.

Shaman: >Abscond.

The Shaman withdraws into the earth and his boar runs off at surprising speed, entirely unimpeded by the difficult terrain.

The Boar is visible 100 feet away off in teh forest. For obvious reasons, the Shaman is out of sight.

Chimon, Korak.

He can't withdraw, that is a full round action and he is staggered

The Shaman enters his Ferocity.

I'm assuming your "tiger knee" was the AoO he provoked from standing up.

Actually, that was the attack from Korak's charge (which should have gotten a +2 from Chimmon's Inspiring Command)... My AoO... I dunno. Make it the first roll in my full attack post. Add a +4 for him being prone.

So... Does he withdraw?

No, but he can still 5 ft. step, so he's below ground regardless.

He got up if you'll recall. You whacked him with an AoO.

Yeah... remembered it later. I was kinda in a hurry last night. BTW, considering Korak act after Chimmon, that Tiger Knee should probably have connected.

So, lot? :D

Sorry, didn't realize it was my turn.

Chimon begins casting a second summoning spell, while the spider moves over the point where the shaman disappeared.

Yeah... remembered it later. I was kinda in a hurry last night. BTW, considering Korak act after Chimmon, that Tiger Knee should probably have connected.

It did. I subtracted the damage for it. It's why he's in the negatives right now.

Korak stands next to his friends and readies his weapons...

[b]"Tiny, use your ability to detect magic and tell me where he is. He won't be able to outrun me... If he does, make me fly."[b]

Ready action to attack the Shaman if any part of him shows up. Also make fun of a priest of Gorum for running away from battle.

The shaman can't breathe underground, he's staggered and bleeding. His spell should last 7~10 turns at most... We can probably outlast and/or track him down.

He is also bleeding, he could die down there

Finishing his spell with his own bit of garbled Terran, Chimon summons a formless lump of mud just next to his devil-blooded spider. The earth elemental rises on four thick trunk-legs, then dives into the earth, seeking for the shaman.

Slam (earth mastery): 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 6 + 1 = 21 Bludgeoning (earth mastery): 1d6 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 1 = 8

Gonna say you'd need a way to direct the Elemental.

It knows my opponents, doesn't it?

I generally rule summoned creatures can automatically undertan theit summoner.
.. It makes the game run more smoothly, since players don't have to predict every dingle type of summon they will use...

Seeing Chimon problem

Just tell me what you want to say to it and I will translate it so you can say then

"How do you say, 'Attack the shaman?'"

...*Insert Jo translation*...

That's not how I run it, but summons do automatically go after foes in my games. The languages/wild empathy/Handle Animal only comes into play if a summoner want something tricky, like getting carried or healing an ally.

Chimon repeats Jo's magic-assisted translation, pointing to the ground underneath the spider.

I was talking more "How would it know where she is?". Earth Elementals don't have Tremorsense or anything. But yes, I will enforce the "Must know their language" clause for anything more complex than "Kill that".

The Earth Elemental enters the ground where Jo and Chimon point. It does not come back up a moment later.

The Boar continues fleeing.

What do you do next round?

Earth elementals DO have tremorsense!

Is the boar heavy injured or something?

Ah, right. Looked in the wrong section. Regardless doesn't change anything (OOC knowledge your Earth Elemental MISSED). And the boar is 100% untouched.

Korak is hasted, he can catch the boar

True... I follow the boar.

How fast do you move? Remember this is difficult terrain.

Fine... I let the boar go and track him down.

Meanwhile, the shaman can "swim" at a speed of 5ft per round.

The earth elemental swings again.

Slam (earth mastery): 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 1 = 11 Bludgeoning (earth mastery): 1d6 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 1 = 10

Chimon removes his shield and pulls out his crossbow, aiming for the boar.

It's moving what, 50 feet per round? What's the visibility like?

How fast do you move? Remember this is difficult terrain.

Dificult for hte boar too I guess

You track the Boar for nearly an hour before coming to a sort of "fort". It's little more than a ramshackle collection of tents, and one crude longhouse dominating the center with a trench around it, but it looks fairly civilized, for an Orc community.

There are about 40 Orcs going about their business in town, smithing mostly, with a few washing clothes in a nearby stream and some cookfires started here and there. There don't appear to be any warrior types, though the smoke coming from the longhouse indicates there might still be people inside.

Nop.

Meanwhile, detect magic on the dead orcs gear.

No sign of the staggered, bleeding shaman who can't breathe underground and has to move 5ft per round? I mean... He has to come out for air at some point... In a few seconds, actually.
