@Pokey; I miss typed a 1 instead of a 2 and if I indeed confirmed the crit against Kaneka another d8 will most likely drop her dead without any chance to prevent it ..so I'm choosing to not correct my mistake at this time since it's in Kaneka's favor, but your absolutely right..it doesn't do 1d8 on a crit
@Belka; Even though Vanya didn't say she moved I don't think she'll mind taking a 5ft step after attacking
Vanya slashes at the pile of stone with her saber Seems you can apply sneak attack damage against it and after hitting it takes a step back to allow other's access to the pyramid as well
Belka moves forward and swings her axe at the pyramid hitting it and sending pieces of stone flying everywhere.
Since it doesn't actually state that the pyramid has to continue in a straight line and I'd feel bad about killing someone in the first encounter...
The pyramid reverses course and slams into 1B2T: 1d2 ⇒ 1 Belka
To hit AC Belka: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28
Damage Belka: 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

Pokey lets loose another volley in an attempt to shatter the pyramid.

Vanya Kaleth

If the tiger can move back and exchange position with Vanya she will try to attack the pyramid again. If not, she will delay.
Attack roll: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Damage roll: 1d6 + 4 + 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 + (3) + 1 = 11
Either way seems like she will be ineffective
Zarunkumar

Sorry my daughter's first birthday was yesterday so I'm getting caught up with all of my games now.
Last round
Zarunkumar will switch that attack to poring a cure moderate wounds potion down Kaneka's throat.
Cure Moderate Wounds potion: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (4, 3) + 3 = 10
Current round
Zarunkumar will cast stabilize on Kaneka to stop her from getting any worse.
Sarephta Nigh

Sorry, I'm not in a position to heal Kaneka except for positive energy. Though I don't have selective channel, I know a lot have taken wounds. Do constructs heal with this, anyway?
Sarephta opens a conduit to the heavens.
"Iomedae is with us," she calls out, then steps away from the stone construct.
channel: 1d6 ⇒ 6
Looks like all but the bottom 2 should heal 6.

@Zarunkumar; congratulations on the birthday ;)
Pouring a potion into someone else is a full round action, which also means that you need to have the potion in hand already..in this case the best solution will be that you didn't shoot your crossbow last round but took out a potion and started to apply it as a standard action, then finished this round with another standard action. it would also provoke..but the pyramid already used it's AOO last round..and it seems a bit silly to have it use it's AOO when you are finishing this round
@Sarephtha, as far as I know constructs do not heal from channel, being not living
Sarephta draws upon the power of Iomeda to heal the wounded
Pokey shoots another volley into the pyramids side, sending a chip flying of it with his first bullet..but his second bullet doesn't seem to even dent the stone.
Vanya get's ready to move into position and attack once she get's the chance

Would this work?
Last round
As a free action Zarunkumar requests that Dr. Agon retrieves her one of her cure moderate wounds potions. For his turn he brings the potion to Zarunkumar's free hand and ends his turn. Now it's Zarunkumar's turn, she uses a full round action to pour the potion down Kaneka's throat.
Current round
Zarunkumar drops the empty bottle and casts stabilize on Kaneka to stop her from continuing to lose hit points.
Belka

Beginning to be seriously wounded, Belka welcomes the cleric's healing wave and continues to attack the stony thing.

Not entirely sure if familiars can do that, but sure..why not. But casting stabilize won't add anything btw. You are stable as soon as you get healed (until you take damage again)
Belka swings her greataxe into the pyramid..doing minimal damage to it
While Kaneka almost manages to stab herself with her weapon while lying on top of it
init
Gwinthyr+Tiger (+Zarunkumar can take another action since I think she would have know that stabilize wouldn't do what she think it did - note that you are inside the pyramids reach in case you start to cast a spell or something that will provoke.)

Gwithyr

Sorry for the delay, I was pulled away from my computer most of the weekend.
Gwithyr double moves past the pyramid 60ft. She then orders Babou to strike out at the pyramid. Swift Action: Sic 'Em, Hunter's Trick (His animal companion makes one melee attack against an adjacent creature. The animal companion must be able to see and hear the ranger to make this attack.)
Bite: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
She then orders the tiger to heel. Free Action: command Animal Companion.
Babou's turn: the tiger retreats back to his master's side.
Unfortunately, the tiger does not know "flee," so technically my only way to get him out of the way for you was to run away and then draw him back to my side. Commanding him will be so much easier next level when he has 3 Int and more tricks. :)

Both Zarunkumars and the tiger's attack fail to do anything to the pyramid
There's just one ..sort of big problem with that action. To get past the pyramid you need to pass through his squares..which means you need to make an acrobatics check vs his CMD+5 ..if you fail it get's an AOO vs you..and you don't move..which is what happened to Kaneka..so I'm going to need an pretty high acrobatics check from Gwithyr or things could go pretty badly again. Or you might want to chance your action and Vanya can just not reach the pyramid and do something else instead
Gwithyr
|
Oh, I think I misread your last post, and I thought it already used it AoO this round. In that case, I'll alter my actions.
Gwythir casts sanctuary on herself and orders Babou to attack.
So next turn, I will be able to run past the pyramid and get me and the tiger out of the way...
Babou swings with tooth and claw:
Flanking Power Attack Bite: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Flanking Power Attack Claw: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Flanking Power Attack Claw: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Gwinthyr cast sanctuary on herself while
The tiger goes wild and claws and bites it's way through some of the stone. (2 hits, one mis)
Since Vanya can't get close enough she can take a different action for this round but in order to keep some sort of pace I'll choose that she goes on full defense for now (she can change her action to something else as long as it doesn't effect any action that came after it) so we can move towards the next round.
Having revered course the pyramid start to roll back to where it came from trampling over Belka, the tiger, Seraptha and Vanya again.
Damage Belka, the tiger, Seraptha and Vanya: 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11 Reflex save DC 18 for half damage, or you can make an AOO against it with a -4 to hit as it moves over you

Sarephta dodges as much of the rolling stone as she can, but can't quite get out of the way. She does manage to strike it deeply with her spear.
AoO: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (20) + 5 - 4 = 21 for damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
crit?: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 5 - 4 = 11 for damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 Nope
reflex save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Belka
|
This time, Belka prefers trying to dodge the pyramid rather than to strike it but, sadly, she is not quick enough. She is now in a pretty bad way and only her berserker rage prevents her from falling unconscious. She is just able to drag herself far from the dangerous rolling thing.
Reflex save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
I move 8 squares away from the pyramid (I moved my token but, as the tunnel is shortened on the map, I don't know if it is placed correctly)

@Sareptha its either the AOO'(with -4) or the reflex save, it's a bit metagamey since you know your rolls already but I guess you'll pick the AOO this time. And since it's the first one you rolled that's the one I'll go with as well
As the pyramid rolls over her, Sareptha is able to able to jam her spear somewhere between it's rollers, scratching it a bit before stepping away from it and channeling once again to heal everyone.
Belka moves as far away from the Pyramid as possible, straining to keep herself upright
The tiger dodges over the pyramid again as it rolls past, evading it completly
Pokey fires his gun at the pyramid once more hitting it and making one of it's corner stones crumble..but then a loud band indicates that his musket has malfunctioned

She then orders Babou to heel clearing up the attack lanes for the rest of the party.

@Kaneka, the pyramid rolled about 30 ft away from you. So you can't attack it right now..and no risk when standing up..I'll assume that you stand up instead of trying to attack
Kaneka stands up
Vanya stabs her weapon at the pyramid, but the thing made out stone turns out to difficult to damage (doesn't hit AC)
Zarunkumar heals Kaneka some more
Gwinthyr shoots her bow at the pyramid and send another chunk of stone falling away from it while her tiger moves to sit at her heels.
@Belka, yes you were in the channel before you walked away..so you have a move left to pick up a potion
The pyramid stops rolling forward and stops, revering course and slamming into Vanya
To hit Vanya's Ac: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
hitting her in the side Damage Vanya: 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17 very hard and dropping her to the ground.

Sareptha heals everyone again
Pokey clear his gunpowder chamber and fires his gun again I'm assuming not vs touch AC since your to far away? but the bullet is deflect by the angular outside of the pyramid without causing damage (doesn't hit AC)
Belka tired as she is fires an magic missile at the pyramid As far as I can tell..magic missiles don't bypass hardness, and objects are not damaged at all - since magic missile states that it doesn't deal damage to objects. This thing has the object keyword....since there's still a lot of people to act I'm fine with Belka knowing that magic missile would most likely wouldn't do much damage against the pyramid and do something else if she changes her action before the pyramid is up again

Gwintyr's arrow shatters against the pyramid without causing any damage
@Vanya..., withdrawing means the first square you leave doesn't provoke...the thing has reach, and if I'm right you went unconscious and there for prone before Seraphta healed everyone. Standing up would provoke..now it might be debated that you can crawl during a withdraw..but that means you only move 5 ft
If, during the process of withdrawing, you move out of a threatened square (other than the one you started in), enemies get attacks of opportunity as normal.
You may not withdraw using a form of movement for which you don't have a listed speed.
(I'll assume you'll want to get away as far as you can from the thing)
As Vanya stands up the pyramid tries to slam her down again
AOO vs Vanya: 1d20 + 9 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 4 = 15
but fails to hit her..she then moves as quickly as she can away from the rolling dead dealer
Kaneka heals Belka with a wand (going to assume you moved as well since otherwise you can't reach Belka)
while Belka (instead of firing of a magic missile) drinks a potion further healing her wounds
@Belka; Energy Attacks - Energy attacks deal half damage to most objects. Divide the damage by 2 before applying the object's hardness. This to me implies that spells don't bypass hardness ,so I'm kind of wondering where you found that spells bypass hardness. Not saying it isn't true, but I'd like to know where your getting the idea from since it's new to me
@Sareptha; actually just waiting for me. That that gave Zarunkumar more time to respond was just a side effect
NPC-ing Zarunkumar in now to get thing rolling again (pun not originally intended..but keeping it in after I noticed it)
Zarunkumar moves back as far as he can as she sees the pyramid reverse course again and move towards her
K..since trample will get a bit weird with end locations it will just drive up to Gwinthyr (who's the front line now) and slam into her and then stop
The pyramid rolls up To hit Gwinthyr AC: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25 and smashes into Gwynthir Damage Gwinthyr: 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16 before stopping
