Mystery of the Keepers (Inactive)

Game Master DireMerc

Razmir the man known as the living god is making his move expanding into neighboring nations. It seems nobody can stop him as his power truly seems to be that of a god. A select few know the secret of his power and are taking steps to end his rule with the help of another who wields the same power as Razmir. Sazed Khaim a member of the old order of the keepers.

Houserules:

Houserules:

Casting: When casting a spell defensivly if you fail you do not automaticly lose the spell, rather you provoke an attack as you normally would for not casting defensive. If you are hit you must make a concentration check dc 10+damage taken if you fail this check you lose the spell.

Rolls:
Many rolls will be handled by the GM in secret.(don't worry, I don't fudge.)
Any result that can influence the character behavior will not be rolled open.
Rolls that will be handled by the GM:
Perception
Sense Motive.

if you make the check I will send you a pm or make a post and put it in a spoiler depending on the situation.

Sometimes I will roll Initiative others I will ask you to roll depending on the situation. In some situation (rarely) I will bypass init entirely and have you all go first and enemies second or have enemies go first and you all go after.

Combat rules:
I'm a fair GM, I dont roll combat in secret, I don't change results, I don't ignore bad calls from the characters.
Sometimes, character dies, but I'm not a player killer, if I think that an encounter will be easy handled, when it should be more challenging, I will make it a more challenging, if the party it's not prepared to face something, I will drop hints, if they insist... well killing one or two players never made me lack sleep...

Actions:
I'm a GM that do not punish the character for trying something new or cool, or even strange. Visual appealing actions are encouraged, the dc will of course depend on what are you trying, but you can try! If what you want to do is wicked cool, I can even bend the game mechanics to allow it! The most importat part is: Everyone have fun.

Posting Rate
If it could be done, I expect 1/day posting, if you can post more, it will really good.
During weekend, this rule does not apply. If you are able to post, great! But dont stress over this, everyone need some time to rest (In my case, I need time to play and DM :D on my tabletop games).

Level up
Aside from character creation, when you level up, if you want something not from core rulebook, you'll need to search it inside the game. basicly what you need to do is just show in game your character is searching for that knowledge. This rule is not meant to prohibit anything, I just don't like something like this: "Character always as a full caster, never picked up a sword in his entire life, and then he gain a new level and says: Master, I'll level up as a fighter now..."

”Allow me,” Devyhn says as he touches Lyaro with the Healing Staff.

He takes the wand from Lyaro and finishes healing the remainder of his injuries.

With a strength Surge Gossan is +10 on strength checks. With my new graps I doubt failure would mean any damage with Hardness 20 of the grasp. Also Gossan taps that tumble.

It might not be the best of ideas to stop the fans for too long. I am rather fond of breathing. I too can tumble through these slow moving blades.

If we want to avoid them, I can teleport myself plus three to the other side. Anyone else volunteer to brave the blades with your acrobatic prowess?"

Achren shakes his head. "I can shift to the other side of the blades as well." He looks at Gossan. "Between the two of us, though, I am sure we could stop the blades long enough for anyone else to get through."


Getting hit by a blade only deals 3d6 damage so it's no too bad

Lyaro starts to dodge through the blad ed and go down the path he will continue til the end.

Taking 10 is succeed 1 by 1

Taking 10 lets Gossan dive through all the blades at once. He will wait though and not get too ahead of the group.

Devyhn, less agile than his companions, tries to move through the fan blades as carefully as possible.

Dodge First Blade: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

Winces from the pain of the blades striking him over and over, Devyhn catches his breath, then draws upon the power of Pharasma to heal his wounds.

Arkanost watches Drevyhn and winces.

"Yea. No."

He then casts dimension door and appears at the other side.

Anyone else on this side is welcome to join him, but feel free to RP if you prefer.

At this stage I assume you press on into the next area.

The air in this room is thick and cloying, carrying upon it the heavy and offensive smell of rotting flesh, sickly-sweet flowers, exotic smoke, and reptilian musk. Shadows and smoke coil in the corners of the room, and the floor is smeared with dirt and patches of pallid mold. To either side of the room’s central dais, stone carvings of demonic visages yawn, their open maws revealing two different and hostile terrains.

The opening to the north shows a verdant jungle of fungus that serves as a battleground between enormous insects and gargantuan reptiles, while the southern maw shows the same landscape with the jungle burnt away, leaving nothing but skeletal fungoid trees and an ash-charred landscape.

So there is battle going on right now that we can see?


No that's just fluff you just see a really dense huge jungle.

Achren follows Arkanost through his magical door, stepping through to the other side of the fans. When they see the jungle room, he stops and looks warily at the carvings and vegetation.

Are the carvings any recognizable monsters or gods or demons?

Also, are the fungus of any recognizably dangerous types? Yellow mold or the like?

I know little of plants and fungi but it seems better to me to take the living path over the path of death. Gossan offers.


Male Gnome Sorcerer 10 | hp 70/70 | AC 20, T 17, FF 16 | Fort +9, Ref +9, Will +10 | Init +3 | Perception +15 Google Drive Sheet

"I like the way you think Gossan. To the path of life we go!"

The little gnome starts to wander off in the direction of the plants, but continuously checks over his shoulder to ensure he is not going it alone.


Beyond the two statues with the gaping mouths there is also a set of doors offering a third option forward.

Achren doesn't recognize a lot of these plants he suspects they are from another plane of existence and that these mouths are in fact portals.

Before you decide on a course of action an Elf comes running out of the jungle out of breath. He hesitates as he enters the room seemingly very confused.

Achren takes to the air, flying above the portal the elf ran out of, ready to drop on these goblin-demon-outriders the moment they emerged.


Moments later two goblin like creatures riding raptors charge into the room.

Achren dives down at the goblin on the right, making sure to land on the far side of the dino mount to keep the other one from attacking him from behind.

Thanks, didn't mean to rush you. I just wanted to make sure I was seeing everything.

Here it is, it's not currently in images cause I am still at work at the moment will update more tonight

@achren wasn't really sure were to put you let me know if that is wrong. Are you attacking the rider or the mount?


Male Tiefling (Kyton-kin) Summoner (Synthesist) 10 [HP: 24+76/85+76 | AC:32| T:17 | FF:29 | CMB:+18 | CMD:23 | Fort:+9 | Ref:+11 | Will:+13 | Init:+9 | Perc:+19 (Darkvision 60') | Spd 30]

That's fine, DM. Attacking the rider.


The goblin cast a spell at Achren trying to rob him of his sight.
Casting blindness/deafness to try and blind him. dc 18 fort negates.

The raptor then jumps up and attacks Achren with it's claws and bite.
attack talon 1: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 191d8 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
attack talon 2: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (17) + 14 = 311d8 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

attack bite: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 291d8 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11

if Achren is blind the raptor (the awakened raptor with freaking rogue levels !?! LOL) then gets sneak attack as well.

sneak attack talon 1: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 5) = 10
sneak attack talon 2: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 1) = 2
sneak attack claw 1: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 1) = 7
sneak attack claw 2: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 5) = 7
sneak attack bite: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 3) = 8

The second goblin blows a horn (inspire courage) and directs his mount to pounce on Anatoli.
attack talon 1: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 161d8 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
attack talon 2: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (16) + 15 = 311d8 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19

Gosssan swift casts Shield of Faith using Fervor and charges right through Lyaro's square, tumbling to avoid any AOOs from reach as he does. Dragon style... He also uses a ki point to increase his AC by 1 for a minute. Current AC is 35 H attacks the goblin.

Lyaro will use arcane strike to power his weapon up then he will take a 5ft step up to the raptor and cast intensified shocking grasp on himself then do a full attack with his weapon and another to deliver the spell.

He attacks the raptor he can't fail the defensive casting roll.

wall of force blocks spells effects (only thing that works trough wall of force is teleport and d-door so you cannot cast a summon spell inside a force sphere and have the creature appear outside
