Nightflier's Midnight Game Thread

Game Master nightflier

Set in the grim world of Aryth, Nightflier's Midnight is a game that speaks of almost futile hope that shines against the darkness.

Solvistania thinks to Felina, GO!. Felina responds like a flash, heading back down the passageway to where Pebbles was left earlier.

Pebble is at the entrance of the cavern, on the other side of the lake.

This won't change Felina's action. If she cannot telepathy Pebble, then at least she can see what is happening there, hopefully.

Hmmm... Felina will need several minutes to reach the edge of the lake, and the range of her telepathy is 60', so she can not speak with him. By the time she returns to Solvi, the fight with the demon will be over one way or another.

So, Ilona and Ragnar are up.


I am going to post Chops' actions early, since I am going to a RL game till late and won't be able to post until tomorrow. And with the pace of this game...

Chops slowly draws his other Urutuk as he stands. When he is fully erect he grabs his other hatchet that is floating next to him courtesy of Evyndr. "Demon-swine! You gotta do a lot better than that to keep me down. And your starting to piss me off, you ugly son of a b$&%@! Now lets go!" He spits out a glob of blood. His face and chest are covered in it and one has to wonder how he is even still alive. He steps five feet towards the demon and swings with both axes.

Attack #1(applying Offensive tactics) 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (16) + 5 + 2 + 1 - 1 = 23
Damage 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Attack off-hand 1d20 + 5 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 5 + 2 - 1 = 15
Damage 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

If for whatever reason Chops is more than a five foot step away, he instead charges and uses his flying kick feat for and addition 1d12 ⇒ 7 points of damage on that first attack.

Whirling as the creature sails over his head, Ragnar swings once more.

1d20 + 7 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (20) + 7 + 2 - 1 = 28

damage 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Confirm 1d20 + 7 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 2 - 1 = 22

crit damage 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

total 14

The floating hatchet deposits itself neatly in the screaming Dworg's hands.

(anyone else having trouble with paizo lately? First post was eaten. Then it took me 4 tries to get in to edit for the crit.)

As the Demon jumps into the air and lands on the other side of him Sorok turns and swings at the Demon.

"Sounds like ye've got some friends do ye? Well once we're finished with you we'll move right on to them."

Her countenance is both beautiful and terrifying, an angel of vengance.

Demon's mindscream is strong enough to still your thoughts for a moment. "B%*@%! You will not slay this beautiful body! I will be back! From every shadow I will watch you! All of you! I will eat your souls!" Shadows hurl themselves at the demon, engulfing him, and in a moment - he disappears.

Knowledge (Spirits) DC 25:
Some spirits have the ability to blend with shadows. Some of them need to exercise greater effort, but some of them can do so with an act of will, almost instantly. They become cloaked in shadows and practically invisible.

You can see the shadow-like aura of evil miasma flying near the cavern ceiling more swiftly than any bird you have ever seen and going in a general direction of the cavern complex entrance.

The moster had another action before I did? I dident think a readyed action droped you one the initiative order. Oh well.

Its making its way towards the entrance! Get me close enough and Ill show you exactly were it is.

Lanik full out sprints towards the entrance.

As The demon vanishes and Solvistania deciphers it's motives, Ragnar slips back to back with Ilona and stands ready with his customary inhuman stillness. As Lanik begins to run and reveals he can find the monster, the big Dorn explodes into motion, seeming to skip the usual build to action possessed by most. He reverses his grip on Sorrow and simply scoops Lanik up under one arm.

The spirit torches blur and flare in a winding line out before him, leading the way and illuminating potential hazards.

Movement 40

The demon has the ability to improve its flight speed to 240 for 1 minute per day, and its flying speed is 40 otherwise, so you will not catch it. But don't worry - he will be back. And just for the record, I'm using modified version of Shadow Demon. Essentially, it lost DR and some other stuff, but gained hps and some other stuff.


I guess Chops didn't get the chance to attack again, but he still said the words. Here is the edited version of my last post.

Chops slowly draws his other Urutuk as he stands. When he is fully erect he grabs his other hatchet that is floating next to him courtesy of Evyndr. "Demon-swine! You gotta do a lot better than that to keep me down. And your starting to piss me off, you ugly son of a b@#%*! Now lets go!" He spits out a glob of blood. His face and chest are covered in it and one has to wonder how he is even still alive. He steps towards the demon with both axes raised to swing.

Chops starts as the demon disappears, and tries to follow it by sound when Lanik shouts that it is flying away. His shoulders sag and leans against Gillina. "I guess he was too afraid to taste my hatchets, heh heh." He sheathes the urutuks and sits. "Thanks Gillian. I should be a goner."

While she closes Chops' wound, she adresses the others.

"I think this Demon has called some allies like the worms we already met. Let's go on with our tracking before they join"

How many hp is that?

"Thanks again. Is everyone safe?" He rubs his hands on his face. "We need to stop that menace. I don't even think it is sane."


Solvistania nods at Chops, "I would agree with you there, the demon knows only death and destruction, sanity is in short supply with such beings." She looks around the chamber where the carnage of the demon's rampage remains. "We should head back to the surface, unless there be survivors here."

Ilona growls to herself low in her throat as her fists clench on Requiem's hilt. Once again they had the creature on the run, and again it simply escaped.

She looked out at her group, taking in their condition. Chops was only just healing thanks to Gillian, who seemed drained, despite her attempt to hide it.

How much longer could they go on without rest. Even Ragnar, her rock, seemed tired.

Solvi:
"Mistress", Felina shouts in your mind and you see her running to you. "Mistress, two-legs are coming. They are descending down the corridor. That shadow-thing is telling them where to find you."

So its about 2,400 ft (based on the information so far.) to the waters edge which is were I assume the demon is going. So at full run it will take us 15 rounds to reach it and the demon will take 10 rounds. So with no stops the demon will have 5 rounds to prepair. Any time we have to stop for combat it will add to that but that really shouldent add more then a few rounds.

Does the demon have this weird fligt ability to make up for the fact it can't teleport?

Lanik keeps a look out ahead to warn Ragnar of any of the minions comming


Solvistania's eyes flash an angry shade of red, and she draws another arrow, nocking it ready to be loosed. "We are going to have company, courtesy of the demon. Resting will have to wait!"

Assuming it's not just leaving. If it flies out over the water, we can't really follow it.

Lanik sizes up the situation.

It will probably just get away and recover its strength before we can do anything.

The gnome rubs his chin for a bit. Then an idea strikes him.

Ragnar, perhaps we should set a trap for the demon. Confront these ones up ahead and pretend like we are loosing. If the demon thinks he can take advantage of the situation then he will join the fight. He seems to have some sort of connection to his minions, all we need to do is play the part.

Ragnar's brows knit in thought. He looks up from the gnome and to his left, pausing for a moment, then nods.

"That assumes it would try to finish me in it's weakened state." Another pause. "You would know better than I. Subterfuge is not my strength." And another. "Agreed."

Ragnar looks back down at the gnome. "I will use myself as bait. Pretend to go back with Muni, hide, and lie in wait for it. Muni will bring the others. If it sees me alone, it may be enough to lure it out again."

Ragnar casts Protection From Evil and Deathwatch on himself


"Heh heh heh," Chops strolls up to Ragnar and Lanik. "You? Hide?"

Wow, I think I must have totally missread what was going on here. I thought lanik and I were about 15 rounds full run back toward the water, and that the rest of the group was back where the fight happened. My thought was for Lanik to hide while Ragnar tried to lure the demon out, thinking the fewer of us were around, the more likely it was to show up, and then the rest of the group would come running up to save Ragnar's stupid butt before the Demon killed him. I guess somehow we're all back together? I totally missed that part.

Chops followed, but at a more leisurely pace. He assumed the creature bolted. Also, I didn't think you were that far out.

I was estimating, I think we only managed to go one rounds worth of move before the perceptions kicked in, so thats the impression I have. BTW, Lanik is useing detect evil to point out enemy locations

"We are discovered!" an icy female voice echoes down the cave. "Kill that little b&%$& first - she is their healer!" A figure stands up and nocks an arrow on her long bow. Eerie green light floods her face and you recognize Zafina, while she calmly takes her aim.

Out of desperation, Gilian hands flew up in a quick motion as she casts mage armor. Reaching deep into herself, she feels her body rend and blood flow down her eyes as the shimmering armor covers her.
