Outpost 1 Refugees of the Weary Sky (Inactive)

Game Master ScorchedOne

@GM: Where on the initiative are we now? Who has to act? ;-)

Still waiting on Rognak and Blaine I believe.

Can we bot them? It has been a while! Or send them a PM?

I was hoping to not have to act.
Blaine continues his assault moving onto the next target.
nodachi: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (5) + 23 = 281d10 + 29 ⇒ (8) + 29 = 37

nodachi, haste: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (4) + 23 = 271d10 + 29 ⇒ (6) + 29 = 35

nodachi: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (18) + 18 = 361d10 + 29 ⇒ (1) + 29 = 30
crit?: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (19) + 18 = 371d10 + 29 ⇒ (3) + 29 = 32

nodachi: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 211d10 + 29 ⇒ (2) + 29 = 31

With each swing more and more of the golem is chipped off. A grunt exerted with each contact on the golem’s hard body.

Rognak stayed out of the way of the fighters, a wand ready in case any of them fell.

Get wand of cure light wounds ready in case anyone falls.

The golem takes a large step forward and begins attacking Blaine. Blaine and Hamarabi, fort saves please.

Attack: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (15) + 23 = 38
Damage: 2d10 + 10 ⇒ (7, 7) + 10 = 24
Attack: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (17) + 23 = 40
Damage: 2d10 + 10 ⇒ (6, 2) + 10 = 18

Reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

The golem knocks into Blaine, then falls into the pit created by Enora. It finds itself quite contained within the pit, arms nearly pinned to its side in the confining space. You have what seems like 5-6 rounds to work while that golem is contained.

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15

Do you wish to keep that roll, do you have any specific fort bonuses which might apply beyond death effects?

I am going to keep the roll. I may have greater need of my reroll later in the session.

Need a fort save from Blaine also, though he likely succeeds on a non-1.

On failed save take Con: 1d3 ⇒ 2 and Wis: 1d3 ⇒ 1 con and wis damage, respectively.

You may take actions, we're "technically" still in rounds, but as the only opponent is stuck in a deep pit for several more rounds.

"Let us move along everybody!"

"I agree, let get moving before it gets out of the pit." Rognak said as he hovered a foot off the ground.

fort save vs poison: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (4) + 23 = 27
His body pushing aside any ill effects, Blaine let’s his anger drop.
Yes let’s move on before we have to destroy it.

Svetlana steps across and opens the door "Let's see if we have an exit before we know if we need to destroy it"

Hamarabi follows along silently reveling in the inflicted suffering he is taking. "Praise unto you O' Lord of Suffering!" A grin crosses Hamarabi's face as the group makes their way deeper into the citadel.

Inlaid in the dark granite wall on the west side of this room is a large square indentation. Beneath it lie four rectangular pieces engraved with runes, each radiating a soft light: brown stone, blue metal, red crystal, and white ivory.

You may make a Knowledge (arcana) or Knowledge (engineering) check.

Enora casts detect magic and looks around.
kn(arcana): 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (16) + 15 = 31

As everyone gathers Hamarabi translates the Jistka writing on the western wall.

"“At the dawn of time, the fires burned until rain quenched their fury down into solid stone, which has always gazed upon the sky above in envy. Demonstrate obedience to the ancient elemental ordering.”

"So the order would be the red crystal, the blue metal, the brown stone, and finally the white ivory. I am assuming that we would use fire, water, earth, and wind to activate them in the correct order."

Enora identifies the indentation as a power source for the complex that is activated by the colored rectangles. Let me know when you insert the stones.

K: Arcana: 1d20 + 23 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 23 + (2) = 29

"That sounds about right." Rognak said as he moved the runes into their proper recepticals.

Use mage hand to move them if they are not magical, by hand if they are.

They are magical. What is the order you are adding them in?

Additionally, Hamarabi another fort save please.

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27

"That looks right."

Favian takes a moment to heal his wounds while the others look at the stones.

4 charges of wand of infernal healing

Favian, we are still in rounds. One round has passed. You can't use 4 charges of infernal healing currently.

Place them in the order that Hamarabi Ali said

Anyone have any faster healing? I'd rather not be at half hp fiddling with something that might be a trap.

Enora steps toward Favian and begins to heal him and suggest that Flavian uses his wand of infernal healing at least once. GM say how many rounds that works out.

UMD: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17

UMD: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 15

UMD: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30, Wand CLW (9/10 left): 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

UMD: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23, Wand CLW (8/10 left): 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

UMD: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17

UMD: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21, Wand CLW (7/10 left): 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

UMD: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26, Wand CLW (6/10 left): 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

UMD: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18

UMD: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20, Wand CLW (5/10 left): 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

UMD: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27, Wand CLW (4/10 left): 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

I have a wand of cure moderate wounds that I missed the first look through my items. I'll start with the infernal healing and then switch next round.

Enora is an iconic - let us her charges first.

"I am uninjured... how long will that pit last?"

Stop posting any actions which will take longer than 1 round to complete. Please. Otherwise Mr. Golem will get out of his pit and we'll resume combat.

Placing the stones in the order indicated, you do not find any changes.

"Hmmm... I have an idea." Hamarabi pulls out a torch and ignites it. He holds the torch up to the red crystal. "When I move this towards the blue metal I need one of you to douse the flame with water. Someone needs to be sure water flows into earth and that the earth can gaze upon the sky. If we follow the given directions it should, I think, activate something."

Svetlana can see where this is heading, and positions herself waiting for the Golem to resume fighting.

Enora thinks about the text and says "Rognak! Maybe it is the order in terms of altitude?!? Sky, rain, fire, stone? So wind, Water, Fire, Earth?
Try it before the golem comes back!"

Probably will not work either - noooo golem please! :-(

Could always pit him again

Enora goes forth to the elemental formation and puts it in the order she suggested sky, rain, fire, stone

"Noral, I am thinking that it might be corrct. Let's give it a try" Rognak said as he changed the order of the runes. Taking the ivory one, he placed it first, then the blue, red, and brown pieces.

When placed in this order, there seems to be a thrum of energy that emanates from within, but no obvious result beyond that... until Hamarabi brings the flame near, at which point a number of flame effects spring to life throughout the room and adjacent room. As continual flame

Rings a bell

Svetlana keeps an eye on the golem...

"Well that worked. So lets try pouring water onto the blue metal." Hamarabi drops the torch, takes up his waterskin, and with a bit of pressure sprays water at the blue metal.

In the distance, those passing a Perception DC 20 can hear the sounds of running water.

Once all four stones are activated, you feel energy permeating the very air of the structure.

Perception 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

"Water running somewhere, I can hear it now"

"I can as well. Do you hear the grinding within the earth as well? Now where shall we head?"

"The platform lit up, I assume that is where we need to be, but there is a golem in it"

"So long as it stays in the pit that was so generously created for it I don't have an issue with it." Hamarabi makes his way to the now lit platform.

The group, having a sense of urgency as Enora can inform them that pit won't be there but a few breaths longer. You recall previously noticing at the platform’s center is an inlaid gold rune five feet in diameter. The walls are covered in small, tight-fitting ceramic tiles creating an intricate mosaic. The wall around the platform is an exception, bearing three large, clear, triangular quartz tiles.

Enora tries to deduce the language with her linguistic knowledge: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23

I need an aid another! ;-)

Linguistics: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (6) + 23 = 29

"It appears that the three triangles move the device to the left, middle and right." Rognak said as he pointed to them. "Lets go the the left" he said as he touched the button.

1-L, 2-M, 3-R: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Rognak can make an Intelligence or UMD check to try to activate the rune (as can anyone else). You distinctly feel that one success will allow all on the platform to go elsewhere. Be sure to move yourselves onto this platform if you are there.

INT: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26
Once everyone boarded the platform, Rognak placed his hand on the rune and it woke up from its deep slumber.
