Ruegann backs out to where he hopes to be out of splash zone

Sago backs away from the bats and the explosives, Woah, this is not my cup of tea. Locke, all you.
As he does so, he fumbles at his belt for a flask of greenish acid, finally freeing it from the worn leather.

Heveel steps outside the swarm and looks inside his bag for a vial of fire.

Jaquilin backs away from the swarm, being ill-equipped to fight this swarm.

Everyone backs up, then Locke throws a bomb and Io a flask of acid. There's a loud explosion when the bomb takes out most of the swarm. The acid kills what remains of it.

Combat's over!

When you enter the room the bat swarm was in:

Heveel & Locke need a DC 10 Heal check or the application of a cure spell or some other healing magic, or they'll slowly bleed out.

Ruegann enters room and looks around

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

And apparently notice nothing

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

Heal (DC 10) on Heveel: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
Heal (DC 10) on Locke: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

Heveel takes care of himself before heading over to Locke and taking good care of his wounds.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

When he steps inside the room the bats were in, he quickly spots something into the rubble. "Hey, hey look! A potion! I guess it heals wounds. Or maybe it makes you turn into a cloud. Or maybe you turn into a storm!"
Without further indications, he pockets the potion and wanders further into the room, talking to himself.

"Thanks, i'd hate to bleed out on this."

Io helps as his companions search for anything of value.

"Looks like th' path leads up from 'ere," he says as he moves back toward the center stairwell.

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

"Then we head up, we're bound to find some opposition and rewards."

Perception next door: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
Pick lock next door.: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Heveel and Locke, could you update the HP in your stat bars? You both lost 1 HP when the bat swarm attacked.

After finding the potion you head back to the stairs and move on to the next floor. Once you arrive at the fourth floor you encounter a locked door, which Locke has no trouble unlocking.

Crude bunks line the walls of this room, which is filled with the nauseating stench of troglodytes. Three of the reptilian creatures are resting here. They jump off their beds the moment the door unlocks and opens.

Round 1:
Io
Jaquilin
Locke
Ruegann
Yellow
Heveel
Blue
Sago
Red

Those in bold are up! :)

Ah, Ruegann can teleport. Got a gadget for me like that?
For my.....oddjobs, i could use them.
Btw, next time should i roll stealth, to open a picked lock quietly?

"More lizards."
Locke draws the longbow and shoots an arrow at red.
Shot vs red, PBS: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18Sting, PBS: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

After which, Locke 5ft steps north, to avoid los.

Ruegann rushes the one to the left throwing a flurry of kicks at it's chest

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Attack2: 1d20 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 3 - 1 = 11Damage: 1d6 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 - 1 = 3

Io smiles grimly as he rushes into the room, his feet carrying him a little further with each step than a dwarf's feet should.

"Ye've debts ta pay, boyos!" he yells at the lizards.

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 161d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11 vs. flat-footed
handle animal: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

fort save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21

Kradvid watches Io's lead, then follows the dwarf into the room, snarling and aggressive.

fort save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

bite attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 131d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Jaquilin loads her crossbow and them aims it at the middle creature (yellow) before firing at the creature and being just as surprised as anyone that she seemed to have actually hit it.

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20

Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7

Do we know if we're at the top of the tower? Seems like there are a lot of these lizardfolk around.

You're all within 30 feet of all 3 enemies. Could each of you provide 3 Fort rolls, versus DC 13? 1 for each opponent's stench ability: "Creatures that successfully save cannot be affected by the same creature’s stench for 24 hours."

You'll be sickened if you fail one of the saves.

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

@Ruegann: You can't do a flurry after you've moved. That's a full-round action. I'll take just the rolls for your 1st attack.

@Jaquilin: You counted 5 floors on the outside and are now on the 4th. The stair case does continue upward.

Fortsave1: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Fortsave2: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Fortsave3: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

My mistake on to flurry.

Fort save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Fort save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Fort save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

Heveel throws up.

Fort: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
Fort: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
Fort: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

"Buh....those things haven't bathed in...forever."

Fort: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12
Fort: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21
Fort: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

Jaquilin manages to keep herself from throwing up, buy she's very sicked by the mere smell.
"Years of Brimstone is nothing compared to this." she caughs, attempting to keep her composure.

I had rolled one fort save, but owe you a couple more.

fort save2: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
fort save3: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

fort save2: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13
fort save3: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

Half the party feels sickened the moment the door opens, but it's not going to save the reptilian creatures.

Locke puts an arrow in the north-most creature, inflicting a wound that nearly takes it out.

Ruegann rushes the creature in the south of the room and tries to kick it, but his attack misses.

Io heads over to the same enemy Locke attacked and knocks it out with his warhammer.

There's not really a reason for Kradvid to attack the same target as Io, so the wannabe dire bear heads over to Ruegann's target and bites it hard.

Jaquilin then puts a crossbow bolt in the middle creature, nearly taking it out.

Claw 1: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Claw 2: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Bite: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Confirm crit, Bite: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

The middle enemy 5-foot steps up to Kradvid and tries to hit him with both its claws. It fails to deal damage with its claws, but then bites Kradvid and leaves a nasty wound.

Round 1:
Io
Jaquilin (Sickened)
Locke (Sickened)
Ruegann
Yellow -7HP
Heveel (Sickened)
Blue -5HP
Sago (Sickened)

Heveel draws his crossbow and loads it, puking a little.

Io looks darkly at the remaining troglodytes.

"Ye'll pay fer that debt wit' interest, I swear by Dranngvit!" he yells as he runs at the creature's back.

attack: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 3 + 2 = 221d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8 flanking bonus added

Though wounded, Kradvid continues his assault on the others.

bite attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 31d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
claw attack1: 1d20 - 3 ⇒ (16) - 3 = 131d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
claw attack2: 1d20 - 3 ⇒ (3) - 3 = 01d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Heveel draws his crossbow and loads it.

Claw 1: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Claw 2: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Bite: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Confirm, Claw 2: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

One of the enemies claws at Ruegann, inflicting wounds on the monk's arms. Luckily, Ruegann's able to dodge the bite that follows.

Io swears the enemy creatures will pay for what they did and cuts the one that hurt Kradvid down.

Though wounded, Kradvid continues his assault. However, the wounds slow him down and cause all of his attacks to miss the remaining enemy.

Round 1:

Sago (Sickened)

Round 2:

Jaquilin (Sickened)
Locke (Sickened)
Ruegann
Heveel (Sickened)

Sago (Sickened)

Bold's up :)

Locke 5ft steps south to take another shot.

Shot, PBS, cover: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 - 4 = 2Sting: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
"Aww...not cool."

Ruegann aims two quick jabs at the one in front of him

Attack1: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19 Dammage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Attack2: 1d20 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (2) + 3 - 1 = 4 Dammage: 1d6 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 - 1 = 8

Heveel comes closer from the battle and seems to be looking anywhere but where he should as he fires a bolt.
"Wow is this weapon intelligent? I swear it fired on his own!"

Light Crossbow: 1d20 + 3 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (19) + 3 - 2 - 4 = 16 for Piercing: 1d8 ⇒ 1 Threat!
Light Crossbow: 1d20 + 3 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 3 - 2 - 4 = 5 for Piercing: 1d8 ⇒ 3 Nevermind

Locke shoots an arrow into the ceiling, after which Ruegann knocks the remaining enemy out.

Heveel's crossbow then goes off on its own, piercing the head of the creature Ruegann just took out.

Combat's over!

The enemies each have a club and three javelins. With a quick look around the room you determine there's nothing of interest to find here.

The ceiling? How am i to retrieve my arrows that way?

Locke throws a piece of wood at his arrow, to get it out of the ceiling.
1d100 ⇒ 42, it failed however.

"Now that those lizards are dealt with, let's have a look around."
Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Io tends to Kradvid's wounds as best he can, but his companion looks worse for the wear.

"Aye," he says reluctantly. "Let's move on," he response.

"Once we're done 'ere I'll patch ye up good," he tells the animal.

North door okay?

Sure. Sorry I didn't post, I didn't see that my name was in bold and I thought I got skipped somehow, so I was waiting to see if the fight would end before I had to do anything.

Perception on N door: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
Take 20 on lock picking.

Ruegann moves over by the North door

@Sago: Good to know you're still with us! ;)

The north door requires no unlocking and opens when pushed. Cracks in the walls and ceiling of this chamber have allowed rainwater to collect here, flooding the room and giving rise to a profusion of mold and fungus along the walls and ceiling. There's a door in the chamber's southeast wall.

Inside the room you see a creature looks like a normal frog, with moist, mottled, blackish-green skin. The only difference is that this frog has grown to a truly monstrous size.

I've been here the whole time, but like I said I didn't see my name in bold, so I thought that being sickened had somehow made me unable to act.
Sago sees the frog and groans, Lovely, just lovely.

Hey Smoke we have another hungry critter

"Wow! A wonderful specimen indeed!"

Knowledge (Nature): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

Steph knows this scene all to well. Poor frog.

"Well, feel free to examine it more closely."

Gives us all we need to know about it too.

Io looks at the massive frog. "Be this another 'ungry beastie ta feed an' bypass?" he asks the druid.

Heveel's able to identify the giant frog as a species of frog commonfolk call the "giant frog." He knows all about it and shares what he knows with everyone else.

The frog looks rather hungry and stares intently at Ruegann and everyone else who's in the same room.

Jaquilin makes her way into the room, but keeps her distance away from the room with the giant frog.
"Hidious thing...somebody kill it so we can move on." she groans as she remains attempting to clear herself from the sickness.

"Heveel, can you do your animal friendship thing, like with the lizard?"

"Close th' door an' le's move on...it looks 'ungry fer dwarf-flesh!" Io says.

handle animal aid: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Heveel hands some insects to the frog, pulling them off his hair somehow.

"Common' buddy. Look! They're just tasty, home made."

Handle Animal: 1d20 ⇒ 12

The moment Heveel steps into the room to hand the frog some bugs, the frog moves over to him. However, its intention doesn't seem to be to eat the bugs.

Round 1:
Ruegann
Io
Heveel
Jaquilin
Sago
Giant frog
