Birgit will target one of the hobgoblin archers with the slumber hex.

Wit moves toward one of the archers (the one that Birgit doesn't target) and lunges into a roll.

Acrobatics to avoid AoO: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
Trip: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29

Telurion switches weapons and issue his challenge.

Birgit tries her hex on the eastern archer.

Will save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17

The bowman is unfazed.

Witley moves in on the western archer and sends him slamming into the foor!

The hobgoblin swordsman next to Witley attacks.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

A human warrior, wearing half-plate armor and carrying a shield and faintly glowing bastard sword steps into the room and swings at Witley as well!

Attack: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (10) + 12 = 22
Damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Both blows strike home, leaving Witley feeling weakened. 15 total damage.

The unarmed hobgoblin move in on Hawkwren, In doing so, he provokes Telurion's final attack of opportunity!

AOO: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23
Damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

The warrior gashes her side, but she proceeds to swing her leg in a high kick aimed at Hawkwren's face!

Unarmed strike: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

The ranger takes the kick, and feels some blood drip from his nose.

Now Up:

Xath
Hawk
Adebisi

hobgoblin archers

Xathalial stays where he is and raises his bow at whatever the red wizard-looking guy is and fires off some arrows! He thinks audibly to himself, "Why does a human aid the hobgoblins? Perhaps a prisoner of war?"

Flurry of Blows, DA: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 101d8 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 4 = 151d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 111d8 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 4 = 8

He misses horribly, too distracted by his thoughts.

Adebisi will take a 5ft step to the SW and shoot off fireworks at the bastard sword wielder.

Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3 + Dazzled. Reflex DC 15 for half damage and negate dazzled.

Adebisi will then use his arcane to recall and cast grease on the bastardsword. Reflex DC 14 Negates.

Not seeing anywhere he can step without blocking sight lines, Hawk drops his bow and draws his sword.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
Damage: 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (1, 2) + 1 = 4

He swings at the for in front of him, but misses terribly.

Relfex Save on fireworks: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
Reflex Save on grease: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13

The human warrior can't shut his quickly enough, and his face is singed, whil ehe is dazzled. A moment later, his sword becomes very slick and he drops it to the ground!

Xath and Hawk are unable to land a blow on the enemies.

The hobgoblin archer in front of Witley tries to stand, and Wit quickly takes a punch at him.

AOO, Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Normal Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Electricity: 1d6 ⇒ 2

The warrior is wounded, but gets to his feet, drawing his shortsword and slashing at the halfling.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

The blow opens another wound.

The second archer drops his bow for his sword and closes in on Hawkwren, and Telurion can't respond yet.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Now Up:

Birgit
Witley
Telurion

hobgoblin warrior - uninjured
human - unarmed and dazzled, but full HP
hob monk - 7 dmg taken

Yay me!

Birgit will target the Hobgoblin warrior with Flurry of Snowballs catching as many as possible in the cone.

REFLEX for half DC 17
damage: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 2, 4) = 14

Telurion takes a step back, and swings at the one attacking Hawkwren - "I warned you"

Bardiche Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19Damage: 1d10 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

CRACK!

Birgit, I'm not sure how that flurry works. What size cone? Is Flurry a full-round action? And were you aiming for the group around Witley, or near Hawkwren and Telurion?

Actually, if she moves up to the door, only Whitley gets hit for FF (he right still have evasion) while hitting all bads. It's require a concentration DC 19 or provocation from the bow guy (if he threatens) since it's not a carryable touch spell, but an incredibly sound tactical move.

Thanks Xath! I don't have People of the North, and it's obviously not in the PRD, so that was a huge help!

I'm going to be very kind in a metagamey way. I may have previewed certain die rolls...

Birgit steps up behind Telurion and casts her spell.

Hob Monk Ref save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10
Hob Archer Ref save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

Telurion Ref Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

The hobgoblin monk takes 14 damage, while the archerand Telurion take 7 each (I think Telurion's vulnerable).

Telurion's blade slices open a deep wound in the monk's chest, leaving her teetering on the brink of collapse.

Witley unleashes a flurry of blows on the hobgoblin archer.

Flurry #1: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 7 + 1 = 18
Naormal damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
Electricity: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Flurry #2: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 1 = 14

As witley's fist strikes the archer, his body spasms violently as the electrical shock surges through him. He drops to the floor, eyes empty and lifeless.

Wit then takes a 5' step north.

Witley 12/31 HP

The human warrior tries to retrieve his sword.

Reflex: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14

He is just able to grip it, but Witley gets a chance to strike!

Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21
Normal Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Electricity: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Witley's blow leaves the human with a bloody nose and a black eye.

The human then attacks Witley.

Attack: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21
Damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

The cut leaves the halfling woozy and barely onhis feet. The hobgoblin monk tires to run, but faints, with blood pouring out of her wounds.

The final hobgoblin tries to finish off Witley.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17

But the nimble monk dodges the blow!

Round 4?

Now Up:

Xath
Hawk
Adebisi

hob archer

Forgive the short post, I'm on my way out for a con this weekend.

5ft stepping if necessary for line of sight. Teleknetic Fist Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4 + Snap Dragon Fireworks Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4 + Dazzled. Reflex DC 15 for half damage and negate dazzle.

Double 4s! My character's damage output feels a little silly sometimes.

on Birgits turn she will heal Witley with her wand. 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

I can't tell from the map who is left.

Hawkwren steps to the nearest foe and swings hard with his blade.

Attack Bless?: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 1 = 9
Damage: 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (4, 6) + 1 = 11

Nevermind...

I trust you guys on targeting.

Flurry of Blows, DA: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 171d8 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 4 = 81d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 121d8 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 4 = 11
Include Point-Blank and precise shot to modifiers, if applicable.

Xath's first arrow slams into the hobgoblin archer, leaving a deep wound, but the second arrow clatters off the column behind it.

Hawk swings his sword at the archer, but can't land the blow.

Adebisi works his magic.

Ref Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

Adebisi, telekinetic fist is a ranged touch attack, so I'll roll for you.

Tele Fist attack roll: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 3 + 1 = 23

Both of his blows strike and the archer falls dwon, bleeding out from his wounds.

Now Up:

Birgit
Telurion
Witley

[ooc]Birgit, do you want to move up next to Witley, or wait for him to withdraw towards you?

I'll move to him.

Telurion takes a step forward, and launches another swing at the one standing enemy.

Bardiche Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10Damage: 1d10 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

Overconfident, his blow is poorly aimed and unlikely to connect.

Birgit moves next to Witley and taps him gently with her wand. His wounds bind up a little.

Wit is at 11 HP

Telurions swings, and his blow fails to connect with an enemy.

Witley takes a full withdrawl and moves back behind the group.

The hobgoblin warrior strikes at Birgit, and the human steps up to attack Telurion.

Hob warrior: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Human: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16

Neither blow causes any harm to the heroes!

Updated map in morning. The whole party may act, then the enemies.

Adebisi will 5ft south and fire his telekinetic fist at the human. Following it up with his last round of fireworks. Switching Targets to the hobgoblin if the human goes down.

Fireworks Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1 + Dazzled Reflex DC 15 for half and negate dazzled.
Teleketic Fist Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1

Birgit will take a step back to get out of the hobgoblin's range and use the misfortune hex at the hobgoblin. DC 15.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Damage: 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (1, 2) + 1 = 4

Hawk swings at the closest enemy.

Telurion takes a step back and swings at the human who attacked him - "REALLY boy?!" - he roars.

Bardiche Attack: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 1 = 13Damage: 1d10 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

Again his swing is poor, and the warrior curses his luck.

Hobgoblin Will Save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

The hobgoblin feels himself becoming very unlucky.

Tele Fist: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

The human feels a slap of force across his face as Adebisi's invisible fist hits him.

Ref Save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

His face is also singed and he is dazzled!

Hawk's sword cuts into the human warrior, leaving a small gash on his arm.

Telurion's strike misses the human soldier.

Still Up:

Xathaliel
Witley

targeting whatever's closest first. Can shoot in melee without provoking if needed, but like to not be threatened.

Flurry of Blows, DA: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 221d8 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 4 = 91d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 241d8 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 4 = 10 Not including PBS if applicable

-Posted with Wayfinder

Xathaliel, both targets have soft cover from your current position. The human warrior is clearly wearing better armor, but he is closer to you. I can have you step in front of Telurion to avoid cover, but lose flurry. If you want to keep your current action, that's fine too.

Human warrior then. Start the "5ft every round to slowly get into position" dance.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Xath steps forward and gets the human warrior with a single arrow. The man staggers back for half a second, then braces himself again.

Wit rushes forward, then stops abruptly and spins with a sharp kick to the leg of the human warrior. Electricity crackles from the point of impact.

Move Action: Move to AG 22
Standard Action: Attack with unarmed strike
Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
Electric Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Wit's strike casuses the human fighter to spasm in pain as a jolt of electricty courses through his body.

He throws down his sword and shield, and orders the last warrior to do the same.

"Mercy! I'll come quietly if you spare me!"

Adebisi has no interest in slaughtering the prisoner and will lower his wand (of bless).

Hawkwren checks his swing and looks to the others.

Xathalial will hold fire on surrendered people.

Where's your boss? Tell is the truth if you want to live! Hawk says as he lowers his sword at the man.

The man gives a low chuckle.

"My boss, you say? Oh, fine. Hey! Boss! Yes? You called? I was in command here, you see. Now I'm willing to trade some information for my life and freedom. Do we have a deal?'

You can only aid yourself by being less cryptic. We've already established that your life is what your bargaining with. Tell us what you know.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Adebisi will begin casting stabilize on the fallen.

He is willing to give you your life in exchange for information Birgit says looking at Hawkren, I am not. She saunters over to him and kneels in front of him, she sinks her nails deep into his flesh drawing blood, however the touch is also painfully cold.. I am saying that if the information is good and worth while we might award you with a few more years for repentance.

intimidate: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27

All the color drains from the man's face. His eyes grow wide as he looks at Birgit in terror.

He begins to speak, stammering at first but his voice growing steadier as he remembers more details.

"It's very valuable information. Did you know, for instance, that this keep was built on the ruins of an ancient wizard's fortress? An elf wizard named Tessarael built her lair here, and conducted strnage experiments with a powerful arcane engine. Who know what secrets such a device may hold? What kind of power could it grant its owner?"

"Ten years ago I was stationed here when Molthune last held the keep. I heard rumors about Tessarael and that her hidden fortess may have survived the tesrt of time. Once I had my own command I waited for my chance, then falsified orders and led my men here. After digging for a few days, they found stairs leading down to a previosuly hidden basement. The arcane engine must be there! It must! Take it for yourselves. Just let me go."

Telurion shrugs his shoulders - "Hm, I'm not very comfortable with letting this one waltz out of here as if this was none of his business" - he states to the others.

Hawkwren shakes his head as if clearing his ears. Wait...are you sayin that you are Vos?

"Yes, that's my name. Formerly Lieutenant Pavo Vos of Molthune. But I am presently a man without a country. I suspect my commanders know I faked orders to move my men here. That alone would get me cashiered, if not worse."

Xathalial unceremoniously points out a fact that may well be better kept hidden. "Were we not informed of this Pavo Vos to be a trickster and a fox by those who showed us here?"

Sense Motive @ legitimacy of higher ups realizing the orders change: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8 And then Xathalial remembers he knows literally nothing of politics, other than breaking into embassies are sometimes necessary and really easy.

After stabilizing the fallen Adebisi will listen intently but no speak, trying to suss out the truth in the prisoner's words.

Sense Motive Take 10 = 22.

He's being honest, but may be holding things back.

Any thoughts on what you want to do with Vos?

Not an easy decision. But then again, Telurion is a practical man ;)

"I say we tie him up and drag him along - If he proves useful..." - he looks pointedly at the man - "Offering us decent assistance on what to expect ahead as we proceed, who knows? He may get lucky in the end"

He moves towards him, stripping his possessions and proceeding in tying him up - "But leave him free to just roam and come back to stab us in a few hours from now, or alerting whomever more is around here? No way" - he winks at Vos.

-----------------------

If things proceed as planned, Terion will then go through his possessions for anything of use, or particularly valuable.
