OGGM's Sins of the Saviors (Inactive)

Game Master Old Guy GM

Seeing a multitude of images of the demon pop up all around it, Thordak rolls his eyes in frustration. "Blast! There's too many of 'em! Which one's the real one?!" He then steps up and swings multiple times with a bit more accuracy with the hope of striking the right one.

Man this is terrible. Such terrible, terrible rolls as usual. You'd think at some point over the years they'd get better. At least a tiny bit. :P

Just waiting 'till after the hounds....

mirror images: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Rexil crushes the last visible hound. Praxim's near misses shatter two of the demon's images, while Thordak gets two more.

Hounds are out of the picture for now. Lym and Aurora.

Lym fires a volley of magic missiles at the demon, if only to pinpoint its exact location - (Spell penetration 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32 for 5d4 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (1, 4, 2, 2, 1) + 5 + 3 = 18 force damage) - or maybe to keep the demon's attention on her.... rather than the horror materializing behind it.

An arachnid easily the size of an elephant, its carapace carrying the putrid reek of the Abyss, the bebilith blinks its eyes against the light of the mortal world. Then they align on the dancing images of the glabrezu before it, and it starts to salivate.

Lym speaks cold, harsh-sounding words:

Bebilith have Scent, so Perception to identify the real slim shady glabrezu: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (4) + 16 = 20. Followed by full attack: bite 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (13) + 19 = 32 for 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (6, 1) + 9 = 16 plus rot, claw 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (14) + 19 = 33 for 2d4 + 9 ⇒ (2, 3) + 9 = 14 & claw 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (7) + 19 = 26 for 2d4 + 9 ⇒ (3, 4) + 9 = 16.

Rot: Fort. DC 23 or 2 Con. damage.
Penetrating strike: bebilith natural weapons count as magical, chaotic, cold iron and good vs. demons.
Dismantle armour: If a bebilith hits a foe with both claw attacks, it can attempt to peel away the target’s armor and shield as a free action by making a CMB check. If the bebilith is successful, the target’s armor and shield are torn from his body and dismantled, falling to the ground. Armor subjected to this attack loses half its hit points and gains the broken condition if the target fails a DC 25 Reflex save. The save DC is Strength-based. Is this applicable to natural armour?

Head tilted as she regards the battlefield, Aurora sweeps her hands widely and gestures at her companions, and after a second's pause, at Lym's current pet as well.

Making little running motions with her fingers, she releases her spell.

Haste for everyone!

-1 3rd level spell slot

Bebilith have Scent, so Perception to identify the real slim shady glabrezu: 1d20+16. Followed by full attack: bite 1d20+19 for 2d6+9 plus rot, claw 1d20+19 for 2d4+9 & claw 1d20+19 for 2d4+9.

"The creature detects another creature's presence but not its specific location. Noting the direction of the scent is a move action. If the creature moves within 5 feet (1 square) of the scent's source, the creature can pinpoint the area that the source occupies, even if it cannot be seen." Pathfinder RPG PRD for Scent. While a good idea, it won't get you through the mirror images.

The magic missiles slam into the demon, but the bebilith chitters in frustration as its attacks miss.

The glabrezu lays into the dwarf in front, snarling in anger.

A dark, shimmering portal opens up in front of Praxim. Three emaciated figures looking like horned human skeletons smothered within a bone-tight hide of slimy leather step out. they are followed by three Hounds that leap into the air to engage Aurora. One of them is on top of Praxim.

summon monster VI: 1d3 ⇒ 3

The skinny demons attack Praxim with their long spears, missing!

att: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 22 dmg: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (3, 6) + 5 = 14 -37 hp, Aurora

This figure appears next to the glabrezu, menacing with his scimitars.

ROUND THREE: Tomaru, Praxim/Rexil, Thordak.

Rexil, the slow effect dispelled, moves up and swings his club at the rightmost skinny thing.

Great club power attack: 1d20 + 17 - 3 ⇒ (6) + 17 - 3 = 20
Damage: 1d10 + 12 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 12 + 9 = 31 (just in case)

Praxim takes a step forward right into the faces of the skinny demons and takes aim at the glabrezu again, over the new arrivals' heads.

Arrow: 1d20 + 24 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 4 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (16) + 24 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 4 - 2 - 4 = 41

The first of those arrows that hits does an additional 13 points of damage from smite evil. If the first one or two take it down, he turns his remaining arrows at the skinny guy that Rexil swung at.

He casts Summon Monster VI. His summons is answered by Prima.
"Friend, again we fight the foes of goodness. Your sing us a song of battle and glory."
Prima smiles down at Tomaru and nods her head in understanding. Prima begins to sing a song, not of glorious battle, but of normal folk rising to do what is necessary to save themselves and their loved ones. They fight because they have no choice but to fight because they will not submit to evil and wrongdoing.

Moving backwards in the air and out of reach of the scything claws, Aurora throws a crackling ball of lighting forward, and dazzling powerful strands burst forth, impossibly reaching around her companions and only targeting the demon and other enemies...

chain lightning: 13d6 + 13 ⇒ (2, 6, 3, 4, 5, 6, 3, 5, 3, 6, 6, 1, 3) + 13 = 66 DC 24 reflex save for half damage for the demon, DC 22 for the other foes

There's 2 images so that calls for a d3. assuming Praxim popped one, this is for the second hit.
image?: 1d2 ⇒ 2 Pop!

Praxim's barrage pops the last of the images protecting the glabrezu. Then an arrow finds its way into the beast's eye, crackling with holy energy. The glabrezu screams in agony, clashing its claws together with a thunderous crack!

Prima begins her song of hope against all odds, and the shrine to the Mother of Monsters seems not so oppressive. Then Thordak wades in, axe hacking and slashing. Demonic ichor and hide sprays about the shrine, then the demon falls dead.

Lym and Aurora

Huh. I figured that glabbie would have more oomph....

Startled by the appearance of the demons, Lym tries to remember what she knows about these new enemies....

Knowledge (planes) 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21.

Regardless the outcome of her trip down memory lane, the Wizard rises up into the air behind Tomaru, and draws a bead on the snarling, biting hounds. Chanting a familiar spell, Lym releases three rays of searing, sizzling energy, targeting a hound with each blast!

Scorching ray. Ranged touch attack #1 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17 for 4d6 + 3 ⇒ (5, 3, 2, 4) + 3 = 17 fire damage. Ranged touch attack #2 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 for 4d6 + 3 ⇒ (1, 3, 2, 3) + 3 = 12 fire damage. Ranged touch attack #3 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26 for 4d6 + 3 ⇒ (2, 5, 4, 2) + 3 = 16 fire damage.

The bebilith screeches its frustration at being robbed of a meal .... and then its eyes focus on the skinny demons. Clearly deciding that a diet meal is better than no meal, the Abyssal abomination rushes forward, neatly bypassing Thordak, and attacks!

The bebilith attacks the skinny guys, one attack per demon: Bite 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (16) + 19 = 35 for 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (3, 3) + 9 = 15 plus rot Fort. DC 23 or take 2 Con. damage; Claw #1 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (11) + 19 = 30 for 2d4 + 9 ⇒ (1, 3) + 9 = 13; Claw #2 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (5) + 19 = 24 for 2d4 + 9 ⇒ (1, 3) + 9 = 13. Bebilith's natural attacks bypass demon DR.

OGGM: posted just above you maybe 15 mins earlier! In case you were waiting on me :p

Busy today, will try to get something up if I can.

Sorry, 'today' turned into 'this weekend'.

Lym: Glabrezus are not the big combat machines of demonkind, they rely more on subtlety and their ability to grant a wish.

Aurora, you jumped out of order, so I will adjust for you. There is no way to avoid AoOs from those Hounds as they are flying as well. You can't take a 5' step away because of Tomaru's wall.

The hounds rip and tear at Aurora as she tries to fly back away from them. her wings flutter frantically as their powerful jaws lock onto her ankles, pulling her down.

-37 hp, Aurora.

The effect of three hounds worrying at her is more than the gnome can handle, as her spell is lost in the fray.

Scribbler's actions in next post.

With an shout, the Scribbler launches himself at Thordak, swinging his jagged-edged falchion at the dwarf.

att: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (18) + 18 = 36 crit?: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (20) + 18 = 38

In a blink, he casts a spell, and a glowing falchion flies out toward Lym and attacks!

sw att: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (12) + 21 = 33 dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Whew! Finally! ROUND FOUR: Tomaru, Thordak, TEAM Praxim. Map is updated. Please stay in order, this is hard enough :) NOTE: if you hit a babau (skinny demon) with a melee weapon, make a DC 14 Ref save or it takes 1d6 acid damage.

High level Pathfinder can be a slog. It's a major reason why Society stops at level 12. Case in point.

It had been a while since the trio of archons had been summoned. They had started a series of plays called Riverdale. They were in practice when the call for help came.

Archie appears behind Rexil and cuts down at a demon.

Jughead forms behind Scribbler, opposite Thordak and joins the fray.

Because of the placement of the hound archons, each of the bad guys need to make 2 Will saves v Aura of Menace or take -2 pen on attacks, ac, and saves. This is not a fear effect.

Does Archie need to make a save for his weapon against the demon's acid reflux? The damage won't get past the hardness of the weapon.
Reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

OGGM, what happened to my attacks? ^^;

As Thordak takes a nasty cut from the one called Scribbler, he grits his teeth in pain and glares at him. "EAT STEEL!" he yells, taking a step back and unleashing multiple attacks upon him.

Praxim takes aim at the most damaged of the flying dogs attacking Aurora.

These arrows are subject to damage reduction (though they come from a +4 bow if that helps).
Also, if necessary, Praxim and Rexil can do 5-foot step dances to help Rexil get a good position against the skinny guys.

OGGM, what happened to my attacks? ^^;

I accidentally deleted that line in my post. I actually have the damage taken off of the hounds in the 'GM Screen'. Sorry 'bout that. Keep me straight!

ROUND FOUR:

The efforts of Rexil and Prima slay the hound next to Tomaru. Prima can't reach another enemy this round. Archie hacks at a demon, wounding it. Don't bother rolling if the acid won't get past the hardness.

Reggie misses the Scribbler. Jughead hits the mad druid...hard. But not as hard as he might have. The archon's greatsword rings like metal on stone as it hits.

I'm not sure how to write this, so here goes.

The archon's typical aura seems lessened somehow in this catacomb sacred to Lamashtu. Mayhap the Scribbler has some power or it's the shrine itself, either way the minions of the Scribbler do not seem affected by the celestial menace.

Thordak returns the favor, his longaxe ringing off of the Scribbler's stoneskin, but wounding him. Scribbler AC 27

A barrage of arrows from the paladin kills the remaining two hounds. They fall from the air and land with a sickening thud!.

ROUND FOUR CONTINUES: Lym and Aurora (prone)

Seeing its Original prey appear again, the bebilith focuses its attention once more on the glabrezu. Chittering eagerly, the elephant-sized arachnid lashes out at the liar-demon with full strength. Its telepathic voice crashes into the prey's mind, repeating two harsh words: "Eat it eat it eat it eatiteatiteatiteatiteatitEAT!"

Bebilith is still under Haste and moves to attack glabrezu; full attack: bite 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (5) + 20 = 25 for 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (4, 2) + 9 = 15 plus rot: Fort. DC 23 or 2 Con. damage; claw #1 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 20 = 23 for 2d4 + 9 ⇒ (3, 1) + 9 = 13; claw #2 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 21 for 2d4 + 9 ⇒ (1, 2) + 9 = 12; claw #3 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (19) + 20 = 39 for 2d4 + 9 ⇒ (3, 2) + 9 = 14 damage.

Lym curses at the magic sword bedeviling her, but flies away from the hateful thing and sights at the glabrezu. Hands moving in arcane gestures, the Wizard shapes power -- and launches three rays of searing, sizzling energy over the babau and down the glabrezu's pestilent back!

Lym flies -- already adjusted on map -- and casts Scorching ray; Ranged touch attack #1 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 for 4d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 4, 5, 1) + 3 = 16 fire damage; ranged touch attack #2 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9 for 4d6 + 3 ⇒ (2, 4, 5, 6) + 3 = 20 fire damage; ranged touch attack #3 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 for 4d6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 1, 2, 2) + 3 = 12 fire damage.

There is no glabrezu. There are the babau demons (summoned, I think) and the Scribbler, who looks human?

In that case, for glabrezu, read Scribbler. ^^;

OGGM: Just for future retcon botting, Aurora will choose to cast defensively and risk wasting a spell rather than risk suffering multiple AoOs!

Gasping at her wounds and barely able to focus, Aurora summons multiple pyramids of force and throws them at the Scribbler.

force damage: 5d4 + 5 + 5 ⇒ (3, 2, 3, 3, 1) + 5 + 5 = 22

hp 2/80, spells: 6th 4/5 3rd 7/8 2nd 7/8 1st 6/8, AC 21 (25 v giants)

I am so sorry Aurora. I didn't notice how hurt you were.

Zero drama Tomaru! It's an occupational hazard of being a glass cannon ;)

ROUND FOUR cont'd:

The bebilith chitters in frustration as most of its attacks are foiled by the shifty druid. The final claw hits, barely getting through his defense!

vs. SR: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19

Lym's spell washes over the Scribbler harmlessly and he laughs mockingly.

vs. SR: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27

The Scribbler's eyes gleam with madness as Aurora's spell also fails to affect him! "I am the master here! You cannot harm me in the Mother's holy place!" He hacks with his fanged falchion at Thordak:

att1: 1d20 + 21 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 21 + 2 = 24
att2: 1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 16 + 2 = 33 crit: 1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 16 + 2 = 33 dmg: 4d4 + 22 ⇒ (4, 1, 2, 4) + 22 = 33
att3: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 11 + 2 = 17

-33 hp Thordak

Two of the babaus attack the dwarf from behind with their longspears:

att1: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 12 + 2 = 25
att2: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 2 = 15
att1: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 12 + 2 = 16 dmg: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
att2: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 7 + 2 = 22

-15 hp Thordak; that new, higher AC making a BIG difference!

The last of the demons attacks Rexil, but misses!

att1: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 12 + 2 = 19

ROUND FIVE: All of you guys go first (hounds are out); Scribbler and demons.

Scribbler AC 27, SR 28, Stoneskin and other spells not obvious.

"Wanna bet?"Praxim asks grimly.

Smite evil!!!

Attack: 1d20 + 24 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 24 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 - 2 - 4 = 37
Damage: 1d8 + 5 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 8 + 13 + 2d6 ⇒ (8) + 5 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 8 + 13 + (4, 1) = 44

Attack: 1d20 + 24 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 24 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 - 2 - 4 = 37
Damage: 1d8 + 5 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 8 + 13 + 2d6 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 8 + 13 + (5, 6) = 49

Attack: 1d20 + 19 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (7) + 19 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 - 2 - 4 = 28
Damage: 1d8 + 5 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 8 + 13 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 8 + 13 + (5, 3) = 41

Attack: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 - 2 - 4 = 18

Attack: 1d20 + 24 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 24 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 2 - 2 - 4 = 36
Damage: 1d8 + 5 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 8 + 13 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + 5 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 8 + 13 + (3, 4) = 42

Not sure if the holy weapon property is subject to spell resistance. If not, that's 176, all bypassing DR.

"Wanna bet?"Praxim asks grimly.

Aren't paladins supposed to say stuff like: 'thou shalt be vanquished, scion of evil', or 'evildoers! knock off all that evil!' Seems more Thordak-like than paladin-like to me.

Praxim's hands are a blur as he plies his trade - smiting evil. The arrows sink deep into the Scribbler's body, bloody points protruding from his back. He sinks to his knees, looking down at the half-buried shafts.

"B-but...I am...immortal..." Then he falls over on his face, dead.

176 damage vs. 136 remaining health. 3 babau demons left. Go get 'em.

The bebilith turns on the babau, great strands of reeking drool spilling from its maw as it attacks.

One attack per babau. Bite 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (15) + 20 = 35 for 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (5, 2) + 9 = 16 plus rot. Claw 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (14) + 20 = 34 for 2d4 + 9 ⇒ (2, 3) + 9 = 14. Claw 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (10) + 20 = 30 for 2d4 + 9 ⇒ (1, 3) + 9 = 13

Lym, meanwhile, flies down to Aurora and whips out a metal flask, putting it in the Sorceress' hand.

Potion of CLW for Aurora.

Archie slides over a bit and swings his mighty greatsword at the demon the bebilith attacked, or, if that one's down, the next one in line.
Greatsword: bardsong, flank
To Hit: 1d20 + 13 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 13 + 2 + 2 = 27 To Hurt: 3d6 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (5, 6, 1) + 9 + 2 = 23

Jughead's instincts are to attack the Bebilith. Instead he hacks into the prone form of the Scribbler to make sure he stays down and to vent frustration.

Reggie urges Thordak to move as he tries to get to the baubau demons. "Please remove yourself from betwixt me and my hated foe, dwarf."

Confirm Crit Bite: bardsong, flank
To Hit: 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 16 To Hurt: 2d6 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (6, 6) + 4 + 2 = 18

Didn't forget, just had only time for one combat post.

Rexil raises his club again and again, attacking the babaus.

Attack: 1d20 + 17 + 2 + 2 - 3 ⇒ (18) + 17 + 2 + 2 - 3 = 36
Damage: 1d10 + 9 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 12 + 2 = 27

Attack: 1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 - 3 ⇒ (20) + 12 + 2 + 2 - 3 = 33

Damage: 2d10 + 18 + 24 + 4 ⇒ (8, 2) + 18 + 24 + 4 = 56

First smash loosens a head, second sends it clean off (hopefully).

That new, higher AC making a BIG difference!

Man you ain't kiddin'! Most assuredly.

Attacking the one 2 squares to the direct right of Thordak

Taking a quick and curious glance back at the hound archon, he actually ponders that a moment. "Ya know, he did say 'please'. That was mighty nice of 'im," he mumbles to himself as he hacks away at the demon.

The bebelith snatches up a babau, rotten saliva flying as it consumes the small demon. It skewers another with a claw. The archon finishes that one with its greatsword. Menawhile, Rexil and Thordak make quick work of the final enemy.

Combat over. Go team Good Guys!

The bebilith hisses at the archon, and whips the second babau up to its mouth. It quickly spears the third for consumption, then turns its attention to the yeth hounds ..... and freezes. Its whole body trembling, the arachnid utters a low growl, but its outline grows fuzzy, and then it starts to fade from the mortal plane.

Lym stands transfixed, hands held out towards the bebilith in a warding gesture. When the beast has vanished, her shoulders sag with exhaustion.
"I won't be calling her again in a hurry," she says. "Good gods."

Archie admonishes Lym, "You risk much dealing with such dark powers. No matter how GOOD your intentions, those beings will use them and you for evil."

Jughead stares at Lym in much the same way that Praxim is known to stare at people and things he suspects to be evil.

Reginald bows to Thordak. "I ask your pardon, dwarf. In my rush to destroy them, I did not notice that you are an ally against the onrush of evil."

"Trust me," Lym says, "that is not likely to happen again. I'm not full sure why it happened now...."

The Wizard's voice trails off into a note of confusion.

"I was thinking that thing was awfully ugly for a denizen of Heaven," Praxim says Asher casually plucks arrows from the Scribbler's corpse.

As the last demon drops, Thordak calms and takes a moment to catch his breath.

Reginald bows to Thordak. "I ask your pardon, dwarf. In my rush to destroy them, I did not notice that you are an ally against the onrush of evil."

Unprepared for such an verbal assault, the dwarf cuts his eyes left to right in a panic. "Ummmm, yeah, sure, that's no problem. Hard ta notice such things in the thick of battle and all that... I guess. You're welcome?" he throws out there, obviously struggling with what to say. He looks over at Tomaru, mouthing the words, 'Why is he talkin' ta me?! What else am I suppose ta say, lad?! I don't know!' he says, shrugging in irritation. Looking back to the Hound Archon, an immediate, and very uncomfortable grin forms, almost as if he's in some sort of pain. After a couple more moments of silence in what feels like an eternity for the panicky dwarf, "Um... you're welcome?" he repeats, a nervous chuckle escaping.

Hefting his big club, Rexil is grinning from ear to ear. "That fun!" he says. "Good fight! I do okay?"

Tomaru will allow the time for his summons' to run out. They stand watch over the group for the next minute. Prima casts Cure Light Wounds as he inspects the mad druid. and the temple. They stand watch over the group for the next minute.

"You think this one is our mysterious host?"

"This is the second temple of Lamashtu that I get to consecrate. Joining you guys was the best decision I ever made."

Hefting his big club, Rexil is grinning from ear to ear. "That fun!" he says. "Good fight! I do okay?"

Glad to be able to turn his attention elsewhere, "Good job, lad! Ya did good." He gives him a thumbs up. "Keep up the good work."
