damage w/ sneak attack: 1d6 + 2 + 3d6 ⇒ (2) + 2 + (3, 1, 5) = 13
GM Zoomba |
As Jager's gun starts smoking in his hand, your tengu vanishes from sight, only to emerge seconds later scoring a cutting stab that slips through the first cultist's armor.
That cultist responds by calling out briefly to Rovagug for vengeance, though nothing appears to happen. He then steps to his left and hammers at Ka Kaw twice with his axe, though only the first hits home.
Attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19 for Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Iterative Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16 for Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Meanwhile the cultist next to him stares at Jory getting up from the crash. He too invokes Rovagug, and this time his eyes seem to flash red as her looks at the dwarf before he advances and swings his own axe, which misses.

Kiti |
Kiti looks at the enemies, a slight hint of concern passing on her face. Quickly it turns into determination and she concentrates on the battle.
"You meanies, attacking the monks and hurting the horsies. We'll get you!"
She runs forward, holding her shield high and slicing the nearest cultist with her scimitar.
"Mimi, come, this one! Just bite hard, we'll get around later!"
Mimi follows Kiti and leaps at the cultist.
Fight defensively, Kiti AC now 27
Kiti attack red (fight defensively): 1d20 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (13) + 7 - 4 = 161d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Wyrgan moves to strike at the Black cultist
Falcata+PA: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 10 - 2 = 24...DMG: 1d8 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 4 = 9
GM Zoomba |
Kiti's cautious strike glances off the enemy's armor, but Mimi's bite hits home. Further south, Wyrgan's falcata also takes a bite out of his foe.

Kristen casts an ear-piercing scream at the red cultist.

Kristen also could have made the Ref save for half damage from the trap. Ref: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17...but sadly did take the full 15
Fort save: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
The red cultist's ears bleed and he drops his axe at the aasimar's scream. Meanwhile the cultist to the rear advances and hefts a spidery holy symbol. He mutters "The end is now." and a wave of blackish energy spreads out, passing over his colleagues while filling you with deathly emptiness.
Everyone takes Negative energy damage: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 5, 1) = 8, with a DC 16 Will save for half

Jory takes special care to hit the black cultist attacking him with a thistle arrow with a perfect shot aimed for force not accuracy. If he falls, Jory puts extra arrows in the channeling cultist.

Wyrgan retreats from combat and runs over to Kristen saying a quick prayer to Iomedae and then touches Kristen with healing hands...

Kristen Mensbane |
Kristen stabilize: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 DC is 16 => Fail, currently -7 HP, dead in three rounds...
EDIT: Thanks, missed that!
In that case, Kristen awakens to see chaotic battle around her. She stands up and screams at the black cultist once more!
ear-piercing scream: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 3) = 5, DC 15 Fort save for half damage, and on a failed save the target is dazed for 1 round.
GM Zoomba |
Fort save: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
Kiti and Mimi move in and each get a good hit on the last cultist standing, though the tiger’s claws scratch harmlessly off of his armor. Hefting his own waraxe, the man makes two cuts of his own at Mimi.
Attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21 for Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Put as he tries to fire his gun jams again!Spend grit quick clear. Thank goodness i earned that last grit back. Ive never had my gun jame twice in 1 combat before....
Kiti |
"Mimi! Try to hold on! And you, just give it up, we already won the others, you can't win, we'll stab you until you do. Like this!"
Kiti slashes once again, and steps away to give Mimi better position.
Attack from flank, 5ft step away, Trick Flank for Mimi who 5ft steps & full attacks
Kiti attack: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 2 = 131d4 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 1 = 8
"Mimi, go, bite from there, behind!"
The tiger cunningly steps to surround the enemy, and continues maiming.

Jory fires 3 arrows, not really exerting himself.

GM Zoomba |
With a swat from Mimi and two arrows from Jory, the last cultist goes down.
COMBAT OVER
As you catch your breath, looking around the cavern reveals a wide chamber with a large pit clopping treacherously down to the north. To the west lies a tunnel heading further into the mines.
Searching the fallen bodies, you find vials of liquid in each of their bags in addition to their armaments.
In total, you find 4 potions of Cure Moderate Wounds, 4 Endure Elements potions, 4 antitoxins, 4 +1 Breastplates, 4 +1 Dwarven Waraxes, 4 masterwokr throwing axes, and 4 heavy steel shields
With the adrenaline of the crash and combat wearing off, you also notice that this part of the mine, further underground, feels incredibly humid and you begin sweating.
In the main mine area you are being exposed to Severe Heat. (every 10 minutes exposed you will need to make a Fort save or else take some nonlethal damage and suffer from heat exhaustion)
Kiti |
"You silly people, should always talk, not fight. Well, I'll try to save what's left of you. But it was your fault."
Kiti pats the last cultist gently on the head, and casts a spell stopping their bleeding to all of the cultists.
"I'm not sure if I was in time. But anyway, I'll take one of your drinks and we can maybe later take you to the monks, to be judged or whatever. Mimi, you look horrible! Wait, I'll just drink this and then I'll stick you with wonderstick."
Kiti drinks one of the healing potions, then pulls out her wand, healing herself and Mimi until all their wounds close.
Heals on Kiti
2d8 + 3 ⇒ (5, 1) + 3 = 9
1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Kristen Mensbane |
CMW potion: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (2, 8) + 3 = 13
Kristen bows to Jager as she accepts the potion. "Thank you, my friend."
GM Zoomba |
You just entered the hotter area, so you won't need checks quite yet. Depending on how long you take investigating areas I'll be making the Fort saves at the needed intervals. Ka Kaw can just use that as his save (the tengu is fine :)
Mimi, the last cultist looks quite dead, but you can stailize the other two Rovagug antipaladins if you wish.
Kiti |
Kiti reaches to heal the cultists, but stops just as the spell was going off.
"I think it would be nicer to give them a chance to get goody again, but there's the one missing guy and if he comes back and heals while we are there deeper we might have to fight again and it's dangerous. Nobody will ask, but you don't just kill people, but they are evil?"
Kristen Mensbane |
Kristen winces at Jory's bloodthirsty nature, but nods afterwards. "Some are not able to be saved. I suspect those two were such people."
She then follows Jager.
Wyrgan Goodheart |
Wyrgan comes back from checking the rear of the tunnel from where they came and just missed Rorys actions. He sees the fallen, checks their vitals, says a prayer, then stands up to continue the mission.
GM Zoomba |
Moving down the tunnel, you see a messy campsite. A locked case lies in the center of the clutter. The southern walls are covered in shaggy brown filaments. This room feels unexpectedly cool, and unlike the rest of the mines, no torches line the walls.
Two more tunnels lead to the north.
Jory Redcap |
Jory fires an adamantine arrow, shattering the lock from a safe distance. After a short delay, he investigates. Jory loves the dark.
arrow: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 161d8 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15
Wyrgan Goodheart |
Wyrgan says a short prayer then begins scanning the area in search of any taint of evil...before he allows his companions to enter the campsite
Detect Evil
GM Zoomba |
Wyrgan notices a lingering sense of evil, but it does not appear to emanate from any item in particular.
Meanwhile, Jory's arrow pierces the lock. Moving closer to open the chest, he sees 6 vials of endure elements inside, as well as some gold.
The monk also notices a false bottom in the chest. Lifting it, three scrolls and a potion are also within.
Two scrolls of delay poison, one of freedom of movement, and an elixer of swimming
Wyrgan Goodheart |
"Steel your nerves friends. There is a taint of evil in this area. I can't quite place its location. None the less be wary of anything you touch."
Jory Redcap |
Jory notes the potions are now plentiful to protect themselves from the environment, and urges his companions to drink them.
Jory gulps his potion down.
"I sense one of us may be swimming." After Jory tastes a drop of the elixir, and feels the urge to swim.
Jory hands the scrolls to Wyrgan and Kristen as well as the gold.
Jory retrieves his valuable arrow of endurance made of skymetal, and continues to scout ahead. Although quite alert, he is actually not as quiet as he normally is. His noise is that of a novice thief or monk.

Kiti |
"It's pretty hot here so maybe should all really take these. Mimi, come drink with me."
Kiti takes two of the endure elements potions, drinking one and pouring one down the tiger's throat.
Knowledge (Nature): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 23
"That's the funny brown mold, on the walls. It's nothing bad, well, unless you go playing with it, or use fire, or, well, just don't go near? Right?"
Wyrgan Goodheart |
Wyrgan was going to inspect the mold closer but after hearing Kiti's warning, he decides against it.
are all the endure element potions consumed? if not Wyrgan will drink one. If so then Wyrgan will think of something.
