Nevynxxx's PFS PbP

Game Master Nevynxxx

I had delayed. I think that would let me squeeze in before Crowe.

I'm guessing Aubrey chose a barbarian so he could smack things. Charge to I11. Attack G1.

Crowe charges in regardless of Zasha's negotiations.

Earth breaker: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24. ... damage: 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (6, 3) + 6 = 15

Retcon: It appears I have placed Ana too far back to see, so can I adjust her position to where she has line of sight to G2? Her readied action will be to shoot if he takes hostile action against the party.

Yeah, that's fine.

Oh, I appear to have a choice of actions or Crowe! mwahahahha It's a shame that didn't crit....

As everyone tries to Calm the situation, Crowe charges in, flattening the guard with one might blow of his hammer.

The second guard looks around a bit dazed, and then valiantly moves to defend his friend.

G2 charges to J12 to attack crowe.

Atk: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 2 = 10DMG: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Guard 2

Alavar and Anna's readied action should fire too.

I believe Alivar should be able to charge to J11 from his current position – and will do so.

Holding his one-eyed sword with both hands, Alivar rushes forward to stand beside Crowe, slashing at the guard who attacked his companion.

two handed charge attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22 damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

Aliver slams into the guard, forcing his way past the slower man's defences.

I could do with Anna's readied action result to move forward.

Seeing the guard in her view grab for his weapon and move toward her friends, Ana assumes the worst and lets an arrow fly before he gets two steps.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 1

Now the dice are just teasing me.

Guard 2

Alahazra, who doesn't want to attempt combat, so unless someone wants to run an action for her, it's Zasha.

Zasha raises her blades. " A move, a spell and I strike."

Ready action to strike if he doesn't stay still and talk.

Just Folloch?

Z's not really thinking about the guard. Crowe can handle him.

Ok. Speaking of which, Crowe's up.

As everyone tries to Calm the situation, Crowe charges in, flattening the guard with one might blow of his hammer.

You DMPC action was entirely in keeping.

"RAAAH!" Buoyed by his success with the first guard, Crowe swings at the second.

What the hell, let's RAGE! I'll throw in an elemental strike as well for extra damage.
Attack 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 to hit, damage 2d6 + 9 + 3 ⇒ (2, 5) + 9 + 3 = 19 plus 1d6 ⇒ 3 electricity damage.
He's applying power attack damage as well, but his Furious Focus feat means he doesn't take the penalty to hit on his first attack each round.

Pfft! Normal dice-throwing service is resumed.

Map

Bringing the map forward a page.

Crowe flies into furious rage, unfortunately this causes him to swing far wide of the intended target.

Folloch blinks a couple of times as he regains control of his actions, then finishes reading his scroll and mutters a few words. As he does so the scrolls flakes into powder and drops from his hands. He also takes the change to move away from his attacker to the safety of his guard.

5ft step to K13

Anna up

So I don't get the readied attack?

Ana and Leryn move forward around the building, trying to get the measure of the action thus far. Another arrow is knocked and ready, but it appears the guard is well in hand and they want to stop the other, not kill him.

K17 for Leryn, K18 for Ana, if you would be so kind

So I don't get the readied attack?

Sorry, thought you'd readied it on him attacking... yes.

As Folloch finishes his spell, Zasha's blow falls. He curses, but continues his actions.

As Anna and her wolf move forward, the remaining guard attempts to defend himself from Crowe's blows.

Attack Crowe: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 DMG: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8 but his blow goes just as wide as Crowe's did.

Alivar

"Ha! Crowe cannot be touched by your puny weapons!"

Alivar 5 foot steps to K12 and attempts to hack at the guard with his longsword, still held in a two handed grip.

attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18 damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

"Take that, scoundrel!"

The guard lets out a cry as Aliver's blade hits home.

Alahazra

I'll give Dave 24 hours...

Sorry I have just got round to looking at the site

Alahazra again races forward (to I13) and takes a swing at the guard G2 with her staff:
Melee attack and damage: 1d20 ⇒ 81d6 ⇒ 1

Sorry, particularly, unexpectedly busy weekend!

Alahazra finally moves in to attack, but swings rather ineffectually

Zasha

Zasha had delayed. Crowe's up.

Crowe, calling Crowe!

Could someone take Crowe's action please, or I'll have him delay. Aub's appears to be a little bit AWOL.

Crowe's Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21, damage: 2d6 + 9 + 3 ⇒ (1, 2) + 9 + 3 = 15

He's applying power attack damage as well, but his Furious Focus feat means he doesn't take the penalty to hit on his first attack each round.

Crowe brushes aside the guard's attack and delivers a smashing return.

Zasha pulls back a moment but when it's clear Folloch isn't surrendering, she steps in toward him -- preceded by her swords.

Shortsword v Folloch: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23 , damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Crows blow fells the guard in one fell swoop.

Zasha, that's a crit threat....

Crowe is sorry - took his eye off ball.

Crowe is sorry - took his eye off ball.

Still gave it a good hit though!

Crit confirm: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24 DMG: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Folloch staggers back with the force of the blow, then begins to mutter and wave his hands.

Everyone within 30ft of folloch needs to make a DC14 Will save or be Fascinated.....

Ana Will DC 14: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Leryn Will Dc 14: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Leryn's posture relaxes and the wolf settles back on his haunches. He gives a big toothy yawn and pants as the excitement of the fight leaves him.

Ana's face relaxes and she takes a deep breath as she allows her bow and arrow to point down at the ground.

Both of them are focused on something in the man's gestures.

Zasha stares at Folloch with her swords held limply before her, all energy and menace drained away.

Will save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

Somebody save already!

Will save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12. Extra +2 if this counts as 'emotions'.

Actually, in Combat you each get =2, so Zasha and Alivar save...

As Folloch finishes casting his spell, Ana and her wolf fall into a stupor, watching his gestures and noticing nothing else.

[ooc]Alivar is up.[/occ]

Crowe 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 + 2 = 14

"Crowe feel funny... Crowe feel... RAAAAAAAGH!!! Man in mask play with Crowe's mind!"

Alivar moves up behind Folloch. The map doesn’t appear to be updated, but I think I’m in J11 and Folloch is in J14. I should be able to move up behind him into K14, flanking with Zasha.

“Surrender Folloch!” calls Alivar, pointing his sword at Folloch’s back. Ready an action to attack Folloch if he does anything except surrender or negotiate.

Zasha shakes off her momentary fascination. The tips of her swords rise and her eyes narrow with anger.

Alahazra

Alahazra tries (OOC: for the third time!) to resist the enchantment:
Will: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

OOC: And of closure this posting fails.

Captivated by the magic, Alahazra stands still and stares raptly at Folloch.

Zasha and Crowe

"You should hope that I bring you down," Zasha announces as she stabs at Folloch with both blades.

Short sword, flank: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 + 2 = 23 , Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Short sword, flank: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 2 = 10 , Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Crit confirm Short sword, flank: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 2 = 5 , Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

This should be entertaining.

Assuming that Folloch still lives, Croew will try and make sure that he doesn't.

"Crowe brings your death, priest!"

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18 to hit, damage 2d6 + 9 + 3 ⇒ (2, 3) + 9 + 3 = 17

Zasha slashes forwards with her swords, good to her word although only her primary hand manages to get a solid blow.

Almost simultaneously Crowe steps in and finishes the job. The priest falls to the ground dead.

From roughly 50% HP to negative con in two blows. Nicely done!

As he hits the ground, the rod seems to shift form from the ornate gold thing you saw before to a simple iron one.

Crowe leans on his maul, suddenly exhausted. "What has happened to the god rod?"

Heal 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (17) - 1 = 16

"Do we finish the guards, or let them live?"

Are our fascinated companions back to normal now that Folloch’s down?

“Well,” says Alivar, “It doesn’t do much good to call for a fellow’s surrender if one’s companions strike him down before he has a chance to respond, now does it?” He scratches absently at one of his thick eyebrows with his thumb as he looks down at Folloch’s corpse and the rod. “It was my thought that we were here to retrieve – or at least investigate the truth of – a magical golden rod, not kill a Razmiri priest. Now that doesn’t look much like a golden rod nor a magical one, and unless one of us can speak to the dead, we’re no longer likely to get answers out of Folloch.”

He sighs. “If the guards live, and it is in our power to do so, perhaps we should save them. They took Folloch’s money, but we don’t know if they share his ideology … perhaps they know something about the rod though.”

He crouches down to examine the now seemingly iron rod.

I can’t cast detect magic, so visual examination only at this point: Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23

Are our fascinated companions back to normal now that Folloch’s down?

They are lying on the ground, the heal check above would tell you more.

He crouches down to examine the now seemingly iron rod.

I can’t cast detect magic, so visual examination only at this point: [dice=Perception]1d20 + 4

The rod looks like what you would understand a magical rod would look like. It's the right size, shape and it has markings that look magical. It's just no longer the spectacular golden specimen it was before.

As her senses return, Alahazra will do what she can to stabilise the guards.
(If she can take 10 she will get 15 on the heal checks). She will then peer over Alivar's shoulder to cast detect magic and examine the rod.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

Ana and Leryn both shake their heads as the spell's effects wear off. Ana scowls at the fallen priest as she stows her bow and arrows. "What happened?"

Leryn growls in momentary defiance for a moment before laying down at Ana's feet and effecting a huge toothy yawn. He doesn't take his eyes off of the fallen priest or his guards.

If it appears she can assist, she will move up to aid the priestess in stabilizing the guards.

Heal aid (untrained): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Heal aid (untrained): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

As her senses return, Alahazra will do what she can to stabilise the guards.

(If she can take 10 she will get 15 on the heal checks). She will then peer over Alivar's shoulder to cast detect magic and examine the rod.

[dice=Spellcraft]1d20 + 4

Yes, no problem taking 10

Alahazra tends to the guards and within a few minutes they are awake and sat up on the ground.

"What happened, who are you?" say the first one, the other just sits with his head in his hands.

After a few moments, a few of the towns folks appear around the side of the house. They seem a little confused, and when they see what happened, a few rush to the guards to check on them.
