[PFS/DMK/YSK] 6-15 The overflow archives (Inactive)

Game Master Kludde

Sorry, I'm a bit confused - so our movement choices in this room are to a) swim at half speed with a successful swim check, b) use 4 squares of movement per square of "deep bog", or c) a DC 10 climb check and...acrobatics to hop from one animal to the next throughout the room, or no other roll required?

a and b are right. c would just be like scaling a wall, so you'd be climbing the taxidermic pieces on the wall (and lose you dex bonus while doing so). Beats me why anyone would do that (unless you have a climb speed)

I'm assuming DC 10 for calm water
Swim (DC 10): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Iskim makes his way into the room, past Scarlet, drawing his blade once more. Once he finds his footing, he readies an attack against the strange creatures.

Move action: Move 10' (40' normal speed) into the room

Skarn swims forward to be able to glimpse at the fairies, then orders one of them. "They intend to betray you. Kill it before it kills you!"

Swim DC 10?: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10

Casting murderous command, Will DC 15 negates.

Finally, Skarn orders Fianna to attack.

Success is automatic on the Handle Animal check.

Fianna obeys her master and companion, swimming into the room. The she-wolf has a hard time adapting to this environment at first, but them is able to find a way forward.
Swim: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Swim: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
Double move, but the first one fails.

Will: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

Skarn tries to turn of the fairies onto the other, while Fianna has a hard time moving up. Iskim takes up a defensive position.

The spell description actually speaks of a "mental urge", and does not require the target to understand the caster's language. My description was purely for flavor.

Adrianna tries to swim in to get a better position...but she didn't like the waterlogged room at all!
Swim: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Swim: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22

perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

Moving into the room, Bones points to the cage, "There's a man in the birdcage! Can you not see toothless fellow partially submerged surrounded by the stuffed birds?"

The cleric fires a icicle at one of the Tooth fey.

icicle range touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21
cold damage if hits: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

My reaction was also just for flavour. The creature made the save

Whle Adrianna swims closer, Bones hits one of the faeries with an ice blast, almost completely freezing the creature

Swim: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Rasamoro as well started to swim closer to birdcage.

cannot update map since I am via phone till evening

Lady Gormandelle - clearly the creature from the riddle - fires her crossbow at Iskim as the latter struggles forward

Crossbow, Iskim: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 181d6 ⇒ 1

Delays

In that case, I'm going to resolve the tooth fairies turns (I made a mistake above)

The tooth fairies fly up to Fianna. One tries to take one of the snarling teeth with the pliers, but a defensive swat of the beast quickly ends that plan. The other just tries to pinch the wolf, but is too careful.

Pliers, Steal, Fianna: 1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (11) + 9 - 5 = 15
Pliers, Fianna: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

Fianna growls and counterattacks, attempting to give the tooth fairy a taste of the wolf's teeth.
Bite, PA: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 51d6 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Swim: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12
Swim: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18

Skarn wades forward in the water, trying to reach the main room.
Double move.

Swim: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
Swim: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11
Adrianna continues to move into the room, looking for a good place to fight...

OK so lots of climb and acro needed it seems?
Tailor this as needed, the idea is to try get past and then flank and attack, of this round its just moving thats fine
Seeing her friends now engaged and the nasty creatures in range...

Scarlet scampers onto the nearest stuffed animal
Climb 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

Flips acrobatically across the room on the mounted trophies...
Acrobatics 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26

Uses her momentum to pass the evil leprechaun as she flips past it...
Acrobatics to avoid AOO 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16 vs CMD

Then claws from a flank.
Attack 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 4 + 2 = 16
Damage 1d4 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + (6) = 9

Fianna snaps back, but apparently the terror of losing teeth is too much for the wolf. Skarn and Adrianna swim on in the water.

I didn't get an exact count, but my gut feeling says there's at least two move actions in that climb-acro-acro combo

Scarlet nimbly moves through the room using the taxidermic pieces, then moves past the tooth fairy with grace.

Cool - wasn't sure as it was climbing, then acro to move, and across ofdd diagonals - so I threw it to the GM to work out how that ended :p

Swim (DC 10): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

Iskim swims toward the nearest fairy and swings his blade at the thing.

Move action: Move 5', as indicated on map
Standard action: Attack fairy
Attack (Greatsword (2H), Power Attack): 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (15) + 4 - 1 = 18
Damage (Greatsword (2H), Power Attack): 2d6 + 4 + 3 ⇒ (5, 5) + 4 + 3 = 17

Iskim simply cleaves a faerie in two pieces. The pliers hit the water with a splash.

Bones moves 5ft further into the room and cast a bless spell.

Bless +1 to hit & save vs fear for all allies

Can I get an action for rasamoro?

Rasamoro swam to a strange fey and used his katana to attack.

Swim: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24
Katana: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11 DMG: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

It was hard to find solid point to stand, so he missed.

Sorry for delaying everyone

Rasamoro moves forward - slowly - and strike out with his katana. He also strikes wide.

The tooth faerie tries to wrench a tooth from Scarlet with its pliers.
Steal, Scarlet : 1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (13) + 9 - 5 = 17

Scarlet, Rasamoro and Skarn get an AoO on the faerie

The water-pixie weaves an enchantment, and tries to bring Rasamoro to her side

Conc, defensive: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27

Charm person on Rasamoro, DC 17 will save with a +5 bonus to negate

Scarlet hisses and lashes with her fingernails once more...

/Flanking.
Attack 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 4 + 2 = 19
Damage 1d4 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + (5) = 9

Scarlet scratches as the tooth fairy approaches, and bats it out of the sky before it makes contact.

Would've been fun, though :)

This scenario is a raft of crazy :p

Swim: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17
Skarn wades forward and strikes the strange fey with his cold iron morningstar.
Cold Iron Morningstar: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 231d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Swim: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Skarn's she-wolf follows her master, biting at the same creature.
Bite, PA: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 121d6 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9 if successful: Trip: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

Adrianna swims in a little further, backing up her comrades.
swim: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16
swim: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14
I don't want to get in the way, so she will move up and stand by!

Remember everyone is blessed +1 to hit!!!

Bones wades forward and sends another Icicle at the fairy.

icicle range touch w/-4 melee +1 bless: 1d20 + 3 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 - 4 + 1 = 5
cold damage if hits.: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Skarn wades in and hits Gormandelle, but Fianna is too taken aback by the pixie's row of mismatched teeth that he misses. Adrianna moves up, and Bones decides to attack the first world creature from afar, but misses.

Swim (DC 10): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

Iskim swims along the wall and swings at the remaining fae.

Move action: Move 20', as indicated on map
Standard action: Attack fae
Attack (Greatsword (2H), Power Attack): 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 4 - 1 = 9
Damage (Greatsword (2H), Power Attack): 2d6 + 4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 4) + 4 + 3 = 12

Rasamoro striked Gormandelle as well with his katana:

Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 5 + 1 = 16 DMG (cold iron): 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Iskim and Rasamoro swing at the nixie, but the creature dives out of the way, having the adventurers hit only air.

The nixie swims backward a bit, then fires her crossbow at Iskim, landing a bolt in the arm of the rage.

Crossbow, Iskim: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 181d6 ⇒ 6

Seeing a chance open, Adrianna draws a javelin from her back and heaves it at the nixie.
Ranged: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
damage?: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Iskim follows the fae and swings once more.

Move action: As indicated on map
Swim (DC 10): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Standard action: Attack fae
Attack (Greatsword (2H), Power Attack): 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (16) + 4 - 1 = 19
Damage (Greatsword (2H), Power Attack): 2d6 + 4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 5) + 4 + 3 = 13

Adrianna's arrow flies wide, but Iskim strikes true, and cleaves the small skull of the nixie with great force.

Combat over!

The man in the cage is familiar: it is none other than Virml!

That's strange though, didn't you see him go upstairs from the entry hall to the scriptorium?

Scarlet moves to the cage "If you are here, locked in a cage, then who was that walking around wearing your face?" she enquires as she gets to work on the lock.

Disable Device - take 10 for '20', or take 20... I reckon we aren't in a huge rush.

"The fox...?"

Scarlet manages to disable the lock on the cage, and free the - now mostly toothless - Virml. He looks miserable and says It's all my fault. I took a dare from my peers, and pilfered this scroll from the understacks. It contained a long riddle, which I read aloud. The scroll split in pieces, all over the place and a fox-man appeared. He was so... convincing. He convinced me to search the understacks, saying he was looking for something, not completely clear to me what. Books on the first world? Does that make sense?

When he found what he was looking for, he locked me in this cage, and left me to these faeries that he summoned using a fragment of the scroll. They took all my teeth!

Then the water level started to rise...

"We have to find the other you! Before it wreaks havoc on the entire city!!" Adrianna says as she starts to move towards the door.

As the group makes its way back up, she asks Virml, "What did the fox find? Do you remember?"

I'm not sure, some arcane-looking tome. He kept muttering something about getting revenge on a fey that trapped him

"A cunning fox indeed. Do you know what his plans are? And do you know what caused the water level to rise?"

The big fish upstairs was squirting the water that floods all the rooms

May be if we read the riddle loud again, the fox will return? We have several parts of scroll. Do you remember how many was there?, asked Rasamoro.

Bones takes a moment to reattach what teeth he can for the man as the group decides what to do.

-Posted with Wayfinder

The fox was holding three parts of it when he left. He used one to summon those awful faeries, they stole all of my teeth!
