As Vanya opens the door one of the guards stands.
"Close the damn door. You've got another half hour on your shift."
He stomps towards the door before she can slip in. It doesn't appear she has been seen though.
Or if you want, with that stealth, you can have slipped inside. Your call.
Vanya Kaleth |
Well, that's what I wanted. To move behind one of the guards
Vanya observes the guard move towards the door, sighs, moves behind the guard who spoke and stabs him!
"Again, nothing personal, but we need answers and I'm tired of waiting" she whispers

Intimidate: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Diplomacy: You fluster your enemy. For the next minute, the target takes a –2 penalty on all attacks rolls made against creatures other than you and has a 10% spell failure chance on all spells that do not target you or that have you within their area of effect.[/b]
Intimidate: The creature flies into a rage. On its next turn, the target must attempt to make a melee attack against you, make a ranged attack against you, target you with a spell, or include you in the area of a spell. The effect ends if the creature is prevented from attacking you or attempting to do so would harm it (for example, if you are on the other side of a chasm or a wall of fire). If it cannot attack you on its turn, you may make the check again as an immediate action to extend the effect for 1 round (but cannot extend it thereafter). The effect ends as soon as the creature attacks you. Once you have targeted a creature with this ability, you cannot target it again for 1 day.

"Well, I'd say I'm sorry if you weren't trying to do the same to me..." answers Vanya back before slashing at the thug with both of her kukris

Druga |
Druga enters the warehouse, moving carefully around the guard, staying just out of his reach. Druga maneuvers into an advantageous position behind the guard.
double move, speed 20', to avoid AOOs and get into flank position
GM Aerondor |
will: 1d20 ⇒ 19
will: 1d20 ⇒ 8
Zaamir tries to stun the warrior, but with little effect. His offsider however taunts the man into quite the rage. I'll give you this one, but in the future I will count someone surrounded by people who will give AOOs if you move out, as someone who will take harm by attacking you
Vanya plys her daggers, but this opponent is wary and knows what she can do - he deftly avoids her blades.
Druga manoeuvers around the melee and comes up behind the barbarian.
I'll push the melee on tomorrow even if Ryllwynne and/or Stonegrin don't post. I didn't mention it above, but Ryllwynne's readied action would have gone off and missed.

Stonegrin drops the guard like a ton of bricks.
Just when you think calm thoughts, a ghostly greatsword appears behind Druga, slashing at him.

However it deflects off his armor.
At the top of the stairs a man holds an icy lantern, pointing it at you!
"Flee! Flee before my power!"
I'm going to count going up the stairs as difficult terrain, so double movement cost and no charging.

Kida Rashish |
Kida disapproving looks at Zaamir. She obviously wants to create a scandal to drawing attention to herself, but she's hanging in there. Maybe she did not like the look of the sword in the hands of a stranger.

"Imma gonna getchu!"
Gromsk runs up the stairs to get in the guards face.
Double move up the stairs.
Kida Rashish |
Kida swam into the room with an unpleasant smile on her face.
"Hey boy, someone put you in a bad story? Why are you such a gawk! Give me your hand, I'll take you to Mama, she'll take care of you, even change your wet pants!"
The intonation of her words literally infuriates even those to whom it was addressed. They seem to ooze poison and absolute arrogance.
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
She scoffs haughtily, seeing that her words stung the warrior's upstairs... And stung hurt!
Antagonize: Whether with biting remarks or hurtful words, you are adept at making creatures angry with you. You can make Diplomacy and Intimidate checks to make creatures respond to you with hostility. No matter which skill you use, antagonizing a creature takes a standard action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity, and has a DC equal to 10+ the target’s Hit Dice + the target’s Wisdom modifier. You cannot make this check against a creature that does not understand you or has an Intelligence score of 3 or lower. Before you make these checks, you may make a Sense Motive check (DC 20) as a swift action to gain an insight bonus on these Diplomacy or Intimitade checks equal to your Charisma bonus until the end of your next turn. The benefits you gain for this check depend on the skill you use. This is a mind-affecting effect.
Diplomacy: You fluster your enemy. For the next minute, the target takes a –2 penalty on all attacks rolls made against creatures other than you and has a 10% spell failure chance on all spells that do not target you or that have you within their area of effect.

Zamir enters behind Kida.
"So, I'll try again... KARIMZADEGAN!"
Daze DC 13
GM Aerondor |
Vanya and Gromsk, did you take into account the stairs are difficult terrain. You cannot run on difficult terrain, and movement costs are doubled.
Ryll drills the man with an arrow, while Kida tries to antagonize him. Zaamir tries to stun him, but without effect.

Zaamir extends a hand and concentrates... on some kind of metal fishing hook that hangs on the wall behind the man. First, the hook begins to shake... and then shoots up and rushes straight at the enemy!

"There is no justice. The loser here is you, but dead somehow I am!" - she hisses at Zaamir.
Then she turned again to the man upstairs. "You're too pathetic. Why are you hiding there, weakling? Are you such a coward that I could not come down and fight like a man. And you're an idiot - if anything, you have nowhere to run. Weak cowardly fool, that's all. ON YOUR KNEES!"
Intimidate: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
If it works - he can attack her in different ways: shoot, cast spells, etc. Without risk and AoO.
Druga |
Druga climbs the stairs and moves into an attack position.
Whew! double move to get to the top of the stairs and get next to the lantern guy. I'll be able to attack next round, hopefully!
GM Aerondor |
Ryll snaps off a quick shot, but it is deflected by the mans armor. Zaamir's wall hook likewise rebounds from his half plate.
Druga continues up the stairs, being harassed by the phantom greatsword. Stonegrin follows close after him.

BTW is Kida incorporeal or Ectoplasmic at the moment? Is she doing a normal intimidate or using a special power?

(summon spirit in incorporeal form)
This is the answer to the first question. About the second - my mistake, sorry, I didn't write that use Antagonize again. That's why there was my comment about the fact that he can attack not falling under AoO.... If he can )) So he is not shaken but... A bit angry ;)
Vanya Kaleth |
You're right about movement, I forgot about x2 for difficult terrain. That puts Vanya right on top of the stairs. It doesn't change much besides the fact she won't be able to flank
Vanya strides towards the man with the lantern kukris flashing in her hands:"Come on! This is the thief who stole from our Ulfen friend! Let's bring the loot back to his rightful owner!"
Attack roll: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 -> Damage roll: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

GM Aerondor |
Ouch.
For a moment Gromsk feels the icy chill of winter in his own heart. But He Is Barbarian. No silly magical item can hurt him, surely.
His sword on the other hand quickly deals to Bengeirr (the man holding the lantern). It would seem he is allergic to either arrows, knives or greatswords.
Combat over
The lantern hangs from a chain on the roof and is easy enough to remove. Up in the loft is the accumulated loot stolen from Skelg's vault. He probably wants most of it back. On Bengeirr there is a couple of potion bottles that probably once belonged to him.
Zaamir Zatar |
Zaamir looks at Kida serious eyes. "No, no! Come on, you can't right now, I forbid it!! I..." - she wants to say something else, but instead dissolves right before your eyes. "Good enough for me. Of course, I'll listen, darling - but at least others will rest. From you..."
He looks back on his comrades. "Take the lamp, bottles and leaving. And I would say - quickly"
Heading for the exit, he stops, and speaks again without turning his head - "Gromsk. Nice blow". Not waiting for an answer, he goes further.
Druga |
Druga looks at Zaamir and says, Pardon me, yer lordship, will you be carrying anything today?
Zaamir Zatar |
Already almost out, Zaamir stops and looks at Druga. His words sound very sarcastic:
"Funny, that's exactly what you said, cleric. I thought, now is your happy case to do something useful... But if you insist - of course I'll help you. Just ask."
Zaamir smug smiles, but gradually, the smile slides from his face. He quickly considers his words and behavior, and the expression of sorrow appears on his face.
"Excuse me... sometimes she wins this fight differently. Like poisons my thoughts. And so every day, every minute... I have to fight not to lose myself... Druga, thank you."
He heads back. "Give me the lamp, I will carry it. Or anything else. No difference."
Druga |
By the Gods, Zaamir. I tell you what, I am already up here. Forget I said anything. I'll grab the lantern.
Druga will grab the lantern and before he goes he will check the Northman's body, as well.
Ryllkwynne Purebow |
"Is everyone well? Are their more hostiles?" Ryll asks the others as she still has an arrow knocked looking around the area...
