PFS PbP The Ironbound Schism (Inactive)

Game Master James Martin

Harsk will take the shot.

Faeranduil shrugs "Allright, we'll do it your way then. I will watch that Ettin for any weirdness"

Faeranduil will not cast any spells yet, preferring to watch the Ettin for anything other than normal Ettin behaviour.

Guys I'll update in the morning (USA Central Time zone). I'm fighting a head cold at the moment. On a related note, Nyquil is my master now.

Harsk starts things off, firing his bolt at the nearest Ogre! It grunts as the bolt sinks home in its side, then cries a warning as it spots Harsk trying to hide! Pahg-Vahr spins around, its enruned head shouting loudly "KILL THEM ALL!"

init, Kazzok: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
init, Faeranduil: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
init, Lucija: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
init, Naghamadi: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
init, Harsk: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
init, Terrill: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
init, Xiaobo: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
init, Giants: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Round 1:
20 Naghamadi and Terrill
17 Kazzok and Harsk
11 Faeranduil
7 Xiaobo and the Giants
4 Lucija

The heroes are up. We'll add Lucija in with the others, for simplicity's sake!

Faeranduil readies a magic missile to fire at the ettin if it shows signs of spellcasting or using a spell-like ability

Magic Missile: 5d4 + 4 ⇒ (4, 4, 4, 2, 4) + 4 = 22
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (5) + 19 = 24

"I think not," Terrill says calmly before darting across the ground at startling speed and striking at the ettin!

Swift action to activate Bane on ettin (round 2/15 today), free action to activate boots of speed (round 1/10 today), move action to get to ettin, then attack!

+1 Keen Curve Blade, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane, Haste: 1d20 + 14 - 2 + 4 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 14 - 2 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 26
Curve blade damage, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + (6, 1) = 34

With Judgment and Haste, AC is currently 32, 35 vs crit confirmation.

Kazzok pushes his way through the brush so to better survey the battlefield, and then throws an explosive bomb at one of the ogres shown on map.

Ranged touch attack, 2 range increments: 1d20 + 13 - 4 ⇒ (7) + 13 - 4 = 16
Fire damage: 4d6 + 6 ⇒ (2, 3, 5, 5) + 6 = 21 anf the ogre catches fire
10 fire damage on the ogre that gets splashed, Ref DC 20 for half

Faeranduil, you missed a point of damage.

While Lucija has been transfixed by her discovery of some bizarre mutant tree-frog, Naghamadi has had his mouth set for giant for some time now, and ever the attentive vizier, alerts her to the battle. He picks her up and zooms toward the foe like a monstrous crossbow bolt, while Lucija works a potent curse from atop his back.

Naghamadi double moves, and Lucija casts slow (DC 18 Will save) on them all.

Heavy Crossbow: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (1) + 16 = 17
Damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (4, 1) + 6 = 11

Harsk curses as his shot goes wide, as Biter rushes toward the melee.

I missed 5 ;-) I included the bonus damage from Evoker specialist (half level), but forgot that a magic missile is 1d4+1

Naghamadi zooms, while Lucija casts!
Ogre Will: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12
Ogre Will: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
Ogre Will: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
Ettin Will: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

All of the giants, ettin and ogres all, seem to slow as the spell hits them! Terrill takes advantage of this and cuts deeply into the ettin, as the enruned head howls in slowed anger and the other head looks regretful.

Kazzok's bomb hits one ogre hard, covering it in flames, while the other 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (2) - 1 = 1 is similarly burned! Harsk curses, thinking his shot gone wide, but the slowing effect seems to pause the ogre, giving him just the right moment as the middle ogre falls to the ground, bleeding profusely.

Xiaobo pauses, seemingly unable to decide what to do!

The northernmost ogre moves as if in molasses, toward Biter. The southernmost ogre lumbers stupidly toward Xiaobo.

The ettin seems to blur for a moment 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 22 as the runes on its body glow momentarily and it attacks Terrill! Faeranduil, supernatural ability (haste; counters slow), so no readied action goes off.

ATTACK!: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (6) + 21 = 27 for 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (5, 8) + 10 = 23 damage!
ATTACK!: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (4) + 21 = 25 for 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (8, 3) + 10 = 21 damage!

ATTACK!: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (16) + 16 = 32 for 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (4, 7) + 10 = 21 damage!
ATTACK!: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (18) + 16 = 34 for 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (1, 4) + 10 = 15 damage!

ATTACK!: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24 for 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (5, 6) + 10 = 21 damage!
ATTACK!: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29 for 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (3, 1) + 10 = 14 damage!

There is a swish and crash of blades as the ettin's two heads put their respective weapons to use, but the sound is nothing compared to the BOOM! that echoes through the clearing as two things burst from the hillside! Instead of a head, most possess little more than a gaping maw the size of their neck, jagged bones and bits of skull serving as teeth for a monstrous mouth. They have no true eyes—what oracular systems they once had are now embedded somewhere near their sternums—but instead possess an innate sense of direction, and through the dark arcana that surges through their beings they can sense the location of their prey perfectly. Their moist, splotched bodies are marked with runes, and their muscles and bones are often visible through their translucent flesh. The scream that they make as they burst forth is soul-chilling, and even the ogres seem to shrink back from it!

Round 2! Heroes are up!

Terrill reels under the ettin's onslaught of attacks, then smiles grimly and retorts, "That's all you've got? Your heads aren't screwed on right, it seems." He stamps a foot on the ground, activating the magic in his boots, then unleashes a devastating attack, his blade moving so fast it appears to be a silver wind blowing before him!

Maintain Bane (round 3/15), use Boots of Speed (round 2/10), swift action to shift Judgment from saves to Fast Healing 4, full attack!

+1 Keen Curve Blade, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Haste, Bane: 1d20 + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 36 Crit threat
Curve blade damage, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + (1, 1) = 27

+1 Keen Curve Blade, iterative, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Haste, Bane: 1d20 + 9 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 9 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 19
Curve blade damage, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + (5, 1) = 30

+1 Keen Curve Blade, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Haste, Bane: 1d20 + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 39 Haste attack, crit threat
Curve blade damage, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + (6, 5) = 38

Crit confirm: 1d20 + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 27
Crit damage: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 = 26

Crit confirm: 1d20 + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 34
Crit damage: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 = 28

If a 27 confirms, that's 119 points of damage, if it doesn't, it's 93!

Status: 45/77 hp (took 36, healed 4)

Naghamadi abruptly sidewinds through the air toward the ogre advancing on the flummoxed Xiaobo; stopping just shy of the ogre's long arm, Naghamadi lashes out with his fearsome phosphorescent bite!

bite: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
physical damage, plus fire: 1d6 + 2 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 2 + (2) = 7

Lucija has her attentions turned elsewhere. Her eyes gleam as she looks at these new horrors. "Marvelous! What do you think?" She need not even specify to whom she is speaking.

Naghamadi's Knowledge (Religion) check: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20

She barely waits for his response before looking inward to her dreams of flame, which she then casts outward into the waking world, conjuring a huge ring of violet fire about the center of the battlefield!

fire damage vs Kazzok: 1d4 ⇒ 4
fire damage vs Xiaobo: 2d4 ⇒ (4, 2) = 6
Sorry.
fire damage vs ettin: 2d4 ⇒ (3, 4) = 7
fire damage vs 'our' ogre: 2d6 + 9 + 2d4 ⇒ (5, 3) + 9 + (4, 1) = 22
fire damage vs ogre near Biter: 2d6 + 9 + 2d4 ⇒ (2, 1) + 9 + (2, 3) = 17

Bite, Higher Ground: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Clambering up the rocks in such a way to shield itself from the giant's club, Biter uses it's climb speed to get within striking distance of the ogre, but his blow goes wide.

Heavy Crossbow: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (19) + 16 = 35 Confirm: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (4) + 16 = 20
Damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (7, 1) + 6 = 14 Critical: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (1, 3) + 6 = 10

"WE'LL SHORTEN THESE GIANTS LIKE THE REST!" Harsk bellows, delivering a telling blow with his crossbow to the nearest ogre.

Round 2:
20 Naghamadi and Terrill
17 Kazzok and Harsk
11 Faeranduil
7 Xiaobo and the Giants
4 Lucija

Naghamadi slinks and bites the slowed ogre! It grimaces in slow motion as the bite draws blood. Lucija reaches into her fiery dreams and BAM, a ring of flames appears! The nearest ogre falls in slow motion, dying in flames while its reactions can't quite catch up. The flames burn the ettin and remaining ogre as well.

Biter snaps and snarls, while Harsk puts the last ogre down with finality! Terrill's blade dances faster than the ettin can defend, but even his great blade cannot quite end the ettin...

Kazzok, Faeranduil and Xiaobo are up!

"What in the name of ethically questionable science are those!" shouts Kazzok as the two monstrosities enter the battlefield.

Knowledge check? Nature/Local/Arcana: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (19) + 17 = 36

Seeing a chance to hit more than one foe, Kazzok hurls another explosive bomb at the larger of the two monsters.

Ranged Touch Attack, 3 range increments: 1d20 + 13 - 6 ⇒ (11) + 13 - 6 = 18
Fire Damage: 4d6 + 6 ⇒ (2, 5, 4, 6) + 6 = 23 and the thingy catches fire
10 fire damage on the little one from the splash, Ref DC 20 for half

As the blazing wall appears before him, Terrill curses, "I can't see the damned ettin! And I can't see to get out of here! Lucija, would you get rid of this thing?!"

He then calls on Desna to protect him and steps through the fiery wall, unleashing another rapid series of attacks on the two-headed monstrosity as the flames lick at them both!

Boots of speed again (3/10), Bane again (4/15), swift action to switch Judgment from healing to fire resistance 8, 5-foot step through wall and full attack.

Fire damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (5, 4) + 8 = 17 = 9 points after fire resistance

+1 Keen Curve Blade, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Haste, Bane: 1d20 + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 20
Curve blade damage, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + (6, 3) = 35

+1 Keen Curve Blade, iterative, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Haste, Bane: 1d20 + 9 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 9 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 18
Curve blade damage, Power Attack: 1d10 + 9 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 6 = 21

+1 Keen Curve Blade, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Haste, Bane: 1d20 + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 39 Haste attack, crit threat
Curve blade damage, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + (6, 5) = 36

Crit confirm: 1d20 + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 14 - 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 20
Crit damage: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 = 23

Not confirming with that (and assuming an 18 misses), so it looks like 36 points of damage total.

Status: 36/77 hp

sorry work swamp and classes all day. I will post as soon as i off

-Posted with Wayfinder

I'm afraid you'll take one more point than that, Terrill - my fire spells all gain +1 CL.

Maybe instead, you want to try stepping back and using a ranged weapon through the wall? Tertiarily, if this helps you find an alternative way to maneuver, the wall is no more than 20 feet tall. If you stay inside it, however, it will be a powerful aggressive defense for all of us, especially since it deals double damage to undead.

DM, does Naghamadi's Knowledge (Religion) roll bear any fruit?

The wall is opaque. I could have attacked through it with my sword, but with a 50% miss chance, same as if I used a ranged weapon. And only if I knew the right square to aim at. I'm much more prone to offense than defense, so I want to be on the outside of it, and I can only teleport to a spot I can see, so the opaque wall blocked what would normally be my alternative means of movement.

Xiaobo will move to current location taking aoo adding wis to trip

trip: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (17) + 25 = 42

AoO1 disarm: 1d20 + 29 ⇒ (7) + 29 = 36

AoO2 Grapple: 1d20 + 29 ⇒ (11) + 29 = 40

grapple fire Dmg: 1d6 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13

+20 base, +2 haiste, +2 flank, +4 prone

his weapon lands 15 ft away

Knowledge Religion (?): 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (20) + 13 = 33
Elemental resistances / vulnerabilities first then spell resistance and other defenses

Faeranduil throws a fireball so that it hurts the ettin and the two newcomers, but avoids his companions Changing element to one they are vulnerable / not resistant to

Empowered Intensified Fireball: 12d6 + 4 ⇒ (3, 4, 1, 5, 5, 1, 1, 1, 3, 4, 5, 1) + 4 = 38 Total 65 damage, Reflex DC 22 for half

If they have spell resistance above 20 Faeranduil will have cast a piercing empowered intensified fireball
Spell penetration, Left: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 12 + 2 = 25
Spell penetration, Right: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 12 + 2 = 24

@GM i messed up one of my feats. My grapple CANNOT be a grapple it MUST be an attack. Taking the dice roll for the attack

DMG DC 17: 2d6 + 10 + 1d6 ⇒ (4, 1) + 10 + (4) = 19

I dont care to take what i did up top but rules for vicious stomp says it must be an unarmed strike.

Kazzok hurls another bomb at the strange disgusting giants. It hits and splashes over the larger mess of a giant, but seems not to affect the creature as much as Kazzok's experiments would suggest. The smaller one takes some damage, but again, not as much as Kazzok would guess.1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

Knowledge Religion tells you nothing about these. Knowledge Local on the other hand: These are inverted giants, living giants twisted by magic to serve as guardians, cursed to live in pain. 2 pieces of information, Kazzok.

Faeranduil's empowered spell goes off, killing the ettin instantly. Reflex IG: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25 and Reflex IO: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20 The smaller giant turns the brunt of the damage, while the larger seems to take less than half. However, when the spell hits them, both the smaller and larger giants' runes flare! Luckily no one is close enough to be blinded by the intense light.

Xiaobo moves to trip the Ettin, but it's already dead! Instead he moves to the larger giant and manages to drop it to the ground, doing some damage to it.

The larger giant doesn't bother to get up. Instead it lashes out at the monk!
Bite: 1d20 + 19 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 19 - 4 = 30 for 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (3, 8) + 9 = 20 plus a Grab attempt: 1d20 + 27 - 4 ⇒ (3) + 27 - 4 = 26!
Claw: 1d20 + 19 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 19 - 4 = 30 for 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16 plus
1d6 ⇒ 1 acid damage!
Claw: 1d20 + 19 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 19 - 4 = 16 for 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11 plus
1d6 ⇒ 5 acid damage!

The smaller one moves around the larger one and bites at the monk!Bite: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (18) + 15 = 33 for 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 damage plus a grab attempt: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (10) + 21 = 31!

Round 3!
20 Naghamadi and Terrill
17 Kazzok and Harsk
11 Faeranduil
7 Xiaobo and the Giants
4 Lucija

Terrill, now that the battlefield has changed, would you like to revise your actions? The heroes are up for round 3.

Annoyed and disappointed, Lucija snuffs the ring of fire and rides Naghamadi toward these twisted new foes.

Lucija dismisses, Naghamadi double-moves, that's all she wrote.

Lucija - rereading it, my tone in responding to you about the wall of fire was a lot snippier than I intended. Sorry about that.

DM - sure, thanks for the chance to revise. I hadn't realized that I posted out of turn before, I thought we were all up. For simplicity's sake, I'll just say that Terrill wasn't sure if the fireball finished off the ettin, so he swung his sword through the wall of fire and found no target, but used up his action. Now this round's post:

Terrill darts toward the large, prone monstrosity and attempts to carve off a chunk of its strange, twisted flesh!

Move action to get next to giant (likely provoking AoO), attack using Bane (5/15).

+1 Keen Curve Blade, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane: 1d20 + 14 - 2 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 14 - 2 + 4 + 2 = 25 vs prone AC
Curve blade damage, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + (1, 5) = 31

Status: 49/77 (based on revised action, would have kept up fast healing judgment, and not taken any fire damage)

Kazzok will like to know the inverted giants energy resistance and weakest save.

Harrumphing at the fact that his bomb had a reduced effect, Kazzok opts to throw another bomb, this one imbued with pure force.

Targeting the smaller one.
Ranged Touch Attack, 1 range increment: 1d20 + 13 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 13 - 2 = 20
Force Damage: 4d4 + 6 ⇒ (3, 1, 2, 2) + 6 = 14
10 force damge to the big, prone one, Ref DC 20 for half.

Lucija dismisses the wall of fire as Naghamadi slithers closer! Terrill moves closer and the blind prone thing bites at him as he gets close! Bite: 1d20 + 19 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 19 - 4 = 20 for 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (1, 4) + 9 = 14 damage and a grab attempt if it hits: 1d20 + 27 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 27 - 4 = 31! It misses and Terrill strikes! His blade cuts deep and the thing howls in pain!

Kazzok, resistant to cold, electricity and fire. The smaller is less resistant, but still to the same things. Weakest save is tied: Reflex and Will.

Kazzok grabs another flask and mixes it quickly. It strikes the smaller giant, causing all the damage to get through! 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 The larger one rolls slightly, taking only half damage!

Harsk, Faeranduil and Xiaobo are up for this round!

Crossbow: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (9) + 16 = 25
Damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (2, 3) + 6 = 11 factoring in Harsks' favored enemy, -4 if they're undead.

Harsk lets another bolt fly as Biter, spooked by the fiery inferno, hides behind a boulder.

Move and Stealth: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

xiaobo is up but not looking good. Is the bigger guy stunned i didnt see a fort roll

Xiaobo will move 5ft and take down next enemy swift to add wis on trip and stunning on first punch dc 17

trip: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (15) + 23 = 38

atk1: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (2) + 14 = 16

dmg1: 2d6 + 10 + 1d6 ⇒ (5, 6) + 10 + (2) = 23

atk2: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (16) + 14 = 30

dmg2: 2d6 + 10 + 1d6 ⇒ (3, 6) + 10 + (5) = 24

gm reroll atk1: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (5) + 16 = 21

Xiaobo, you're grabbed. Until you can break that grapple, you're not moving anywhere. And I missed your stunning fist. For the sake of flow, let's just say he made it so we don't have to retroactively muss up the narrative. However, since I messed up, I'll wipe out the grapple and let you have slipped from his grip.

Harsk fires at the smaller giant, his bolt hitting home. Xiaobo tries to trip the smaller inverted giant, knocking it to the ground. He follows up with a series of flashy strikes, and when he pulls back the ogrish sized thing is dead, its breath leaving its body in a long sigh.

The remaining giant, prone but not gone, makes a wet sound of anger and tries to bite and claw Terrill!

BITE: 1d20 + 19 - 4 ⇒ (4) + 19 - 4 = 19 for 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (7, 6) + 9 = 22 damage and a possible grab attempt: 1d20 + 27 - 4 ⇒ (19) + 27 - 4 = 42!
Claw!: 1d20 + 19 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 19 - 4 = 27 for 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13 plus 1d6 ⇒ 4 electrical damage!
Claw!: 1d20 + 19 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 19 - 4 = 27 for 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16 plus 1d6 ⇒ 3 electrical damage!

Faeranduil looks on in horror as the organs and viscera of the thing pulse on the outside of its body, clearly a creature that was never meant to be!

Round 4! The heroes are up!
20 Naghamadi and Terrill
17 Kazzok and Harsk
11 Faeranduil
7 Xiaobo and the Giants
4 Lucija

Terrill is unaffected by the flailing fury of the inverted giant, easily sidestepping the creature's blows. He responds a good deal more effectively, calling on Desna to put her divine force behind Terrill's bloody curving blade!

Continue Bane (6/15), swift action to shift judgment from fast healing to +4 damage, 5-foot step to get into flank with Xiaobo, full attack.

+1 Keen Curve Blade, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane, Outflank: 1d20 + 14 - 2 + 4 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 14 - 2 + 4 + 2 + 4 = 30 vs prone AC
Curve blade damage, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane, Judgment, Precise Strike: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 2d6 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + (4, 3) + 4 + (4) = 39

+1 Keen Curve Blade, iterative, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane, Outflank: 1d20 + 9 - 2 + 4 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 9 - 2 + 4 + 2 + 4 = 30 vs prone AC
Curve blade damage, Power Attack, Divine Favor, Bane, Judgment, Precise Strike: 1d10 + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 2d6 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 6 + 4 + 2 + (4, 5) + 4 + (5) = 43

And with two swift strikes, Terrill ends the flailing giant and sends the whole area suddenly silent!

Combat over!

As the scene goes quiet, Terrill scans the battlefield for any further threats, then says, "Let's take a look at whatever had them so interested over here."

He moves to the pile of rubble blocking the entrance to the cave and studies it, commenting to Harsk, "Your people know earth and stone, how should we get this cleared?"

Typecasting! Stereotyping! Deplorable!

Perception on rubble and cave: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (14) + 18 = 32

The rubble looks as if it's going to take some back-breaking work, but inspection reveals that the strange giants created a new hole when they burst out of the hillside! This proves a much easier access.

Scattered around the room inside are corpses of ogres, all seeming recent victims of Pahg-Vahr's mad quest to dig out the Thassilonian ruins inside. The chamber is large, with the entrance blocked by rubble, but an exit deeper into the ruins also blocked: by some sort of glowing spherical barrier. You can see only part of it, but it looks as if it extends in every direction, blocking the way farther. However, it looks as if there's a staff, sitting just beside the sphere, as if it almost was included in the protection, but was just outside it.

The smaller giant rolled a 31. Because your rules are different from vanilla, you really really need to make them plain before battle begins. Never assume a GM understands all the nuances of your character: educate them.

Lucija rides over to the staff and barrier.

Knowledge (Arcana): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12
detect magic/Spellcraft vs staff: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17
Spellcraft vs barrier: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17
:P

Terrill stands back, watching Lucija study the staff and the magical barrier. When she seems a bit puzzled by the situation, he turns to Faeranduil and raises an eyebrow. Studying the items himself a bit, Terrill then offers what limited insight he can to the wizard's assessment.

Knowledge (arcana), aid Faeranduil: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Spellcraft, aid Faeranduil: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Lucija rides over. The barrier is STRONG abjuration and seems to extend into the stone all around, effectively blocking off the ruins further. But the staff?

The staff is pretty.

It is a staff of Edasseril's denial (23,650 gp; CL 11th; this magic staff can cast the following spells: spellcrash [2 charges; Pathfinder RPG Advanced Class Guide 193], covetous aura [2 charges], and stunning barrier [1 charge; Advanced Class Guide 194])

As much as you wish to explore further, it becomes apparent that the sphere is beyond your ken. However, you have secured a ruin ahead of any opposition and before it can be looted by others; this will be an accomplishment celebrated by the Society.

However, as each of leaves the chamber, I need Will Saves from everyone. Lucija, you will take a -5 to this save for reasons unexplained...

Will: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (10) + 12 = 22

Seems a fine time for a folio re-roll:

Will: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

severely compromised Will save, note and add situational bonuses if any apply: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (11) - 1 = 10 +2 for Shield Ally bonus = 12

Naghamadi's Will save, add an additional +4 if this is against Enchantment: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

Will Save, +2 if against magic: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Will Save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22 +2 vs enchantments

I have a Mind Sentinel Amulet in case that is important

Faeranduil has followed his companions, nodding slightly when the magical barrier stopped them. He reaches out to his unseen servant and flips through his books

Knowledge Arcana, Pathfinder Chronicle: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 19 + 2 = 40
Spellcraft, Arcane Family Notebook: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 19 + 2 = 41

Nope, no mind sentinel amulet use today, sorry!

As soon as Harsk and Xiaobo roll, we'll be all done and I'll wrap us up tomorrow!

Hmm, is that a hint to use my reroll?

Will Save +2 vs spells/SLAs: 1d20 + 8 - 5 ⇒ (16) + 8 - 5 = 19

"I ain't a miner, I'm a tracker. An' looks like we'll be needin' the societies help if we're to be pressin' any further. Let's get out of this wretched hole before I..." Harsk begins, falling silent with a shudder.
