I'm kind of impressed that Cannibal took 13 damage and is still standing. Seline doesn't kid around!

Well, to be fair, she got max damage. :-D

Scare lets out a sinister laugh, "Punch!"

Ok, corrected that. Can someone post an action for Sam?

Sam fires a magic missile at the trancing cannibal.
magic missile: 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (3, 3) + 2 = 8

Sorry.
Btw, aim that missele at the guy who is already hurted please.

After Seline's forceful smack, the magic missile swiftly knocks out the injured cannibal.

The medium unleashes a savage, inhuman shriek, eyes weeping rivulets of fresh blood.It seems to surge through the other cannibals, who now very single-mindedly advance on the party.

The savage right in front of Selina brings down his club in a wide swing, then tries to bite her in the opening he created. It doesn't work, but the two cannibals that rush in after only miss by a hair's width. The final cannibal rushes out for a softer target, and finds Cacumattus, and sinks his teeth into the gnome's arm.

Club, Selina: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Bite, Selina: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (8) - 1 = 7

Bite, Selina: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Bite, Selina: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 161d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Bite, Cacumattus: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 211d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Scare disappears into the dense jungle foliage using it for cover.

Stealth: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

His scythe suddenly cuts through the brush at the cultist north of Seline.

melee: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
damage: 2d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 4) + 3 = 10

"RAWR!"

Not that it matters but the cannibal gets an opposed perception and if it fails it's caught flat footed.

Disgust in his eyes, Orophin again aims his crossbow at the canibal witch doctor.

attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
This shot is no better than the first. He pulls on his shield and draws his morning star, ready for a more direct confrontation.

The attack on Selina was a miss, of course, even though damage is listed.

The Scare Crow vanishes into the bush, only to emerge a few moments later and surprise a cannibal, a flash of metal from the scythe nearly chopping the cannibal's leg off.

Orophin fires a bolt at the sedentary medium, but the shot was aimed too high.

No such luck for Cacumattus, though, who's now at 4HP.

"Ow! I said no snacking!" Cacumattus mouths a magic word and electricity surrounds the hand of his bitten arm, with which he swipes at the cannibal.

Shocking Grasp (vs touch): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15 (+3 if he's wearing or wielding metal but I assume not) for: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 5) = 10

Do you want to add a concentration check for defensive casting, or risk getting snacked?

-Posted with Wayfinder

Kerastes drops his longspear and draws his morningstar, swinging that at the snacking canibal. He misses horribly.

Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Sam grabs his wand of mage armor and uses it on himself.
AC 17

Seline takes a five-foot step to place herself next to the cannibal medium, and full-attacks her.

unarmed strike 1, TWF, PA: 1d20 + 4 - 2 - 1 ⇒ (17) + 4 - 2 - 1 = 18
damage 1: 1d6 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 2 = 10
unarmed strike 2, TWF, PA, Beater: 1d20 + 4 - 2 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 4 - 2 - 1 + 1 = 9
damage 2: 1d6 + 5 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 2 + 2 = 14

Assuming the first strike hits, Seline gets a +1 to attack and a +2 to damage on the second strike from her Beater ability. Unfortunately, the second strike is very likely to miss.

Quarterstaff, two handed: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17 Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
"Fish is much more nutritious and whole lot less dangerous!" Cirri grabs her quarterstaff with both hands and clobbers the cannibal biting Cacumattus in the clavicle.

Current AC: 18

Oops, yeah forgot the concentration roll.
Concentration vs DC 17: 1d20 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 2 + 3 = 19

Cacumattus manages to zap the cannibal without getting bitten any more. Selling gives the medium a good punch, and brings her weight in for a second one, which knocks the medium out.

Cirri clubs a cannibal with her quarterstaff, proving to be more successful at hitting her opponent than Kerastes. Sam casts a defensive spell.

The cannibals wail as the medium is knocked out, their occult connection broken. They stagger forward, almost mindless, and try to sink their teeth into the adventurers in front of them. Two of them bite at the unfortunate Cirri, who collapses under the onslaught. Sellne manages to avoid getting bitten, but now faces three cannibals that will try to eat her companion...

Attack, Cirri: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 221d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Attack, Cirri: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 141d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Attack, Seline: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

I have Mage Armor up, so my AC is 18. The second Cannibal should miss.

Seline will punch the cannibal farthest to the right twice, or if the first smack takes him out, she'll reallocate the second attack to the one directly in front of her.

unarmed strike 1, TWF, PA: 1d20 + 4 - 2 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 4 - 2 - 1 = 14
damage: 1d6 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 2 = 9

unarmed strike 2,TWF, PA: 1d20 + 4 - 2 - 1 ⇒ (14) + 4 - 2 - 1 = 15
damage: 1d6 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 5 + 2 = 11

I need to move my token when I get home.

Scare takes advatage of his flank with Seline and swings his scythe at the closest cannibal.

Melee: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 + 2 = 16

Damage: 2d4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 3) + 3 = 7

-Posted with Wayfinder

Lucky you, you're still standing then. The cannibals will have dinner later.

Selling give the rightmost cannibal the double deuce: >boof< >boof<. The two strikes knock out the hungry savage.

Scare Crow, from behind, manages to hack at one of the cannibals as well.

Orophin moves behind the combat to take a position at the end of the line.

There he swings his morning star at the northern most cannibal.
attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Really though, it doesn't look like he especially enjoys combat, as his blow doesn't get any closer to the man than his crossbow bolts.

Two of the Cannibals lunge after Cirri. One of them catches her free arm and sinks his sharp teeth deep into her flesh. Cirri screams like a little girl.

The second one tries to join in and nibble more of her arm, but he instead bites on her shiny magical blue armor. Mage Armor pays off already

Sense Motive: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (9) - 1 = 8 Cirri is in life-or-death mode right now. The idea of someone serving her for breakfast is so infuriating she has no time to think of anything besides survival.

Spell Combat with Ray of Frost
Defensive Casting level 0: DC 15: 1d20 + 1 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 1 + 3 + 4 = 15 Combat Casting to the rescue!
Ray of Frost, Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 3

"OW!...Chew on this!"Cirri casts a ray of frost at the first Cannibal, but the pain from the bite and coordination from casting throws her off balance. The icicle flies through the air and lands in a tree.

Quarterstaff: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 4 - 2 = 16 Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Cirri takes a swing at the cannibal who bit her, hoping to knock the taste of her out of his mouth. She then takes a 5ft step back.

Current HP: 3
Current AC: 18
Spells 2 | 1

sense motive: 1d20 ⇒ 20

"Stop fighting! I think they may talk with us now.."

Talk fast or die scum!
Who are you, what do you want?

Intim: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21

Scare points his scythe at one of the cannibals and shouts, "Talk!" to assist Sam.

Aid Itimidate: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21

Aid Intimidate: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 "Y-Yeah! ow" Cirri chirps while glaring at her wounds. She tried.

Also, I just realized my Mage Armor AC is 15, not 18 because my Studded Leather Armor and Mage Armor provide the same kind of bonus. Still saved me from that Cannibal bite, so no biggie.

Try the shield spell next time. It will stack with your armor bonus.

Cirri and Orophin miss their attack, as the group answers the cannibal's wavering morale with intimidating aggression. With renewed vigour, the cannibals resume their attacks.

Sorry guys, intimidate doesn't really help is diffusing the situation...

Cacumattus winces as he uses his bitten arm to reload his crossbow, then fires at the injured cannibal.

Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 5 - 4 = 11 for: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

"Listen to Orophim! Answering violence with aggression is not always the solution!"

Kerastes slowly lowers his morningstar, and holds out his left hand in a stop sign. He then points to the cannibals and signals that they should also lower their weapons.

Yeah, I thought Shield was Wizard/Sorc only, but the srd says Magi can use it too. Oh well, not used to those with armor casting Mage Armor anyway, lol.

Staaahp. one of the remaining cannibals says as a crossbow bolt flies past him. Give food. Hungryyy

The two cannibals stand down, but keep a wary eye on Kerastes and the rest of the adventurers. No fight!

"Hey. You guys bit us first." Cirri shouts. "Well, I guess Seline technically threw the first punch...I'm thinking too much again." Cirri shuts up and digs out some of her rations to offer. "Let's try this again."

Knowledge(Nature): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
Survival: 1d20 ⇒ 6
Why didn't they just fish, Cirri wonders. Certainly there's enough food for 6 people up here to live on.

Orophin digs into his bag for some food to share.

"The trees here, they contain fruit. Does something else eat them? How long have you been here?"

He mutters to himself in celestial for a moment while rummaging.
Casts enhanced diplomacy

"Are you sailors?"
diplomacy: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26

"Cannibals." Scare adds helpfully.

After being attacked by the cannibals, Seline has no real interest in parlaying with them, but she'll defer to her allies, staying quiet.

Sam let his companions talk with the savages. He is not feeling very charitable with his food at the moment, specially because in the back of his mind there is a growing fear that they may end up like these poor bastards.

Sailor. Explore. For queen. Stuck here, no food. the unwounded cannibal explains in very broken common, then points in a northwesternly direction and says Danger

"We explore danger. You wait here. We give more food when return. You go with us on ship?"

Kerastes answers, keeping his words very simple so the cannibal understands.

Orophin digs out a water skin and a little more food, making sure the men don't eat it too fast.

"Who was your queen? And can you tell us more about the dangers of this place?"

Hole in ground. Danger. the cannibal points again Walking dead. Eat flesh.

"The man who led you.. are there others with the powers he possessed? Also, would you like to leave this place, or is it home now?"

Bad island. Leave. Boat broken. Shaman dead. No more.

"Can you tell us about a tunnel into the pillar? Or is that the hole in the ground you mentioned?"

He smiles

"When we are finished, a boat will pick us up. If you like we can ask them to also take you.."

Cacumattus takes advantage of the break in hostilities to extract a wand from a pocket. Pointing it at the bite on his arm,

Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

after a few attempts it sparks slightly and the wound's bleeding stops,

Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

and a further shake of the wand closes it up as if it had never been.

Did anyone else need a heal?

There, the cannibals consistently points northwest, We make sign. Warning. Danger. Hole in ground. Into ground. Danger.

Come. Boat. Food. We go elsewhere.

Because it's always a good idea to take a bunch of cannibals on a sailing trip.
