[PFS] Season 0 run, mixed with Dragon's Demand

Game Master Irish202

Urbar keeps ready, not trusting the kobold.
"Your friend will help us?"
He says very in a very skeptical tone.

"Anyone else think that's adorable?"

Locke slightly chuckles.
"You're a softie, aren't you? Even in the face of such a big lizard."

Gwen shakes her head with a bemused smile. 'Of course a kobold would have a giant lizard for a pet...'

Tereze cautiously addresses the Kobold.
Ummmm.... Are zere any other big Reptiles zat we should know about?

"Like Hak? No, but we have some turtles in a pool."

Nighttail hops onto Hak and leads you back to the room where you found her.

"We go there now," she says, and points at the southeastern tunnel. "I'll stay in the back."

A thick layer of straw covers the floor of the cave you end up in. The cave's northern end hooks around a corner to the east, and is out of sight from where you enter.

"Be careful when you round the corner! There's a poison dart trap there!" Nighttail announces from the back of the party. "I usually just jump over it with Hak, but you may want to disarm it."

"Turtles you say.....giant alligator turtles by chance?"

"Snapping turtles, about the size of a large shield."

Nighttail points at the corner where the trap's supposed to be. "You'll first have to pass that obstacle, though. Else you may not make it to the turtles."

"I lack the calloused hands to handle traps...or turtles. Alas, I am forever doomed to a long life of caresses, sponge baths and women."
Ery says in a sing-songy strut, wrapping himself into a hug.
"Woe is the life of me." He says with a chuckle. Appearing in his hand, a wooden spear appears from a wrapping of vines.

"Conveniently, We just trigger the trap and move on... assuming this isn't a bad idea. Angle and all that stuff."
Ery looks to the group, unwrapping himself...from himself...

Urbar looks curiously at Ery.
"What... What are you planning exactly? And do I want to be close when you do?"
He says unsure what to make of what he's doing.

Fiona rolls her eyes at Eryzule's words, although the hint of a smile appears on her face when Urbar speaks. "I'm not sure we should just trigger the trap, we'd have no idea where the poison dart'll come from and it might hit one of us. Better disarm it or find and avoid it."

"Allow me.."

Locke whistles a soft tune, taking out the assortment of thieves' tools.

Disable Trap?: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21

Nighttail points the trap out, and Locke manages to disable it.

"Nice, now we move on!" declares Nighttail.

You move around the corner and see a 5-foot-diameter hole in the ground. A thick, knotted rope hangs down into the hole, which you estimate to be 20 feet deep.

"Now we go down there!"

DC 5 Climb to climb down.

"Well...fine... I didn't want to do anything dangerous anyway." Ery sighs, approaching the rope and taking it in one hand. He tosses the spear casually down the hole as he begins sliding down the rope.
Climb: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (2) - 2 = 0
"It's a knotted rope, I'm sure this'll be ea- FraACK!"
Ery slips, and down he goes.
Fall Dmg exceeding 10 ft: 1d6 ⇒ 1
After a moment... "I'm fine... But I can't help but to feel my pride is terribly wounded... Gwen, only your soft, muscley embrace can heal this grievous wound!" He shouts up as he takes a deep breath, getting to his feet, dusting himself off.
"That happened...surely no one expected anything more fantastic."

Gwen gasps as she sees Ery suddenly slip and fall down the hole; she rushes forward to see him on his backside and quipping his normal ribaldry. She takes her time climb down the hole, shaking her head. Once down at the bottom, she assists Ery to his feet and then shoves his into the wall. "I was going to kill you if you got hurt again, but since it's just a bruised ego that will suffice."

Take 10 on Climb for 15.

Totally forgot about taking 10...

Looking to Gwen with a smirk. He nodded, rolling his eyes as he placed a hand on his shoulder, rolling out the bruise the best he can.
"Y'know, Something told me you would be a sadist... I just wanted to believe that you were not."
He laughed lightly. looking upward.
"I'm not dead...and Gwen hasn't killed me yet." he called to the others.

Locke peers down.
"Aren't you the Lucky one."

Take 10 for 9.
Once down, Locke extends a hand, to pull up Ery.

"Dropping to your demise is no wise action.
I'm sure you'd enjoy your church of lust and payback some more, don't you?"

Gwen simply grins and looks around the area.

Fiona looks at the dinosaur, then at the kobold, then at the hole again before asking Nighttail with a faint smile,"How is your friend going to get down? I hope you won't leave him here, I've just started to get used to a large reptile walking with us."

Fiona watches Eryzule's attempt to climb down as the elf literally goes crashing down. She shakes her head in disbelief at the foolish elf who seems to want to hurt himself again and again. She climbs down relatively easily and faces wounded Eryzule at the bottom of the hole, "Are you trying to kill yourself? You might want to let someone else lead the way next time..."

Take 10 on climbing roll.

Urbar slowly climbs down.
Take 10
He over at Ery whilst shaking his head.
"You in a hurry?"

Throwing his hands into the air, the elf sighs.
"Okay, okay I get it. I was not thinking this one..."
He paused a moment then looked to Fiona. "That rope had it out for me... It would have done its evil regardless of the order I climbed it."

LOL!

With only the two of them left, Tereze nods at Nighttail and her mount.
After you. She says motioning to the rope.

Bluff: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23
As she waits she manages to look relaxed and trusting while inside she is wound taunt as a spring and is ready to grab her Morningstar and block with her buckler at the first sign the creatures are turning on her.

Once everyone else is down Tereze will climb down last taking 10 she she has a climb of 6.

The space below is an ovoid cavern with two shallow, murky pools that sit in the north and south ends. A single kobold sits near the southern pool, lounging while he lazily watches out for intruders. Eryzule then crashes down onto the ground in front of him and the kobold jumps up, completely freaked out.

"მზად ვადამდელი!" the kobols yells as he disappears into the tunnel to the east.

"Next room has turtles," Nighttail says after she's let Hak jump down the hole and has joined you in the ovoid cavern.

"Oh joy, surely I didn't do anything... Off to more Kobold death. Urbar, Locke, Gwen... I give a favor to whom ever kills the most."
Ery offers with a shrug, already placing a hand on Locke's shoulder.
"My money's on the faceless...humanoid." He said, raising a brow at his own words but casting Guidance on Locke anyway.

Urbar raises an eyebrow at Ery.
"I'd rather not have any of your favors. Rather not you end up in my bed the next time we get to an inn..."
He walks a bit further past Ery to get into the tunnel.

Knowledge nature on snapping turtles: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

"Oh? You expected me to be anything else?"
....
"If you'd do me a favor, i'll take strawberries."

"Strawberries it is."

"Great, thanks."

A large pool of dark water sits in the middle of the large but low-ceilinged cavern on the other end of the tunnel. Part of the tunnel itself is strewn with rubble.

You may make perception checks as you approach the next cavern.

1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

No information on the snapping turtles?

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Urbar walks into the next cavern, swords ready for the small biting shields.
"It's really dark in here..."
He says while squinting his eyes.

"Huh..."
perc: 1d20 ⇒ 15

Urbar's an expert when it comes to snapping turtles. Nighttail's description of them being the size of a large shield, causes Urbar to suspect they're bigger than most.

As you move through the tunnel, Locke hears the soft sound of a foot being placed around the eastern corner of the cavern's entrance.

"Snapping turtles, as I recall they're not too hard to deal with. Just hit them when they're out. When they're hiding in their shields they are very hard to kill."
Urbar says in his agitated voice as he just remembers that one time he got bitten in his ankle by one. As he slowly moves through the darkness he adds.
"Although in numbers them might be a problem..."

....
"Shh, i'm positive i heard footsteps just now.
It came from over there."

Locke points at the eastern corner.

Perception: 1d20 ⇒ 10

Tereze stays quiet and tries to listen while following everyone else into the corridor.

To be on the safe side, Locke holds the bow ready.

Nothing happens while you quietly stand inside the tunnel.

Stealth: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

Urbar walks forward through the hallway as silently as possible, his swords ready to strike down what had just made the sound. At the corner he glances around the room, trying to see what is going on inside the room.

Readied Trip with Guisarme: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (4) - 1 = 3
Readied Trip with Guisarme: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (14) - 1 = 13

The The moment Urbar peeks around the corner, the heads of two guisarmes move for his legs. Urbar lifts each leg in turn, easily foiling the plan to trip him.

On the other end of the guisarmes are kobolds who hold the weapons. A third kobold stands in the northeast corner, holding a sling.

Round 1:
Tereze
Fiona
Eryzule
Gwendallyn
Locke
Green Kobold
Blue Kobold
Nighttail
Urbar
Red Kobold

Locke leaves the bow in the off-hand, and draws the morningstar, walking to near Urbar.

Fiona moves a few steps towards Urbar and the kobolds and almost automatically casts her trusted Slumber hex, attempting to take one of the kobolds out of combat immediately.
Slumber hex on blue kobold.

Gwen ejects her dan bong into her awaiting hand and moves forward to engage the kobolds! She slips around behind Locke and Urbar to get into an advantageous position and easily wraps up the small draconic creature!

Grapple vs. Blue: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (14) + 15 = 29

Swift Action - Spring Loaded Wrist Sheath her Dan bong. Move Action - Move into position on map. Standard Action - Initiate Grapple w/ Blue.

Tereze turns to Nighttail as she motions him forward,
So how many of you are zere in zese caves and where did you learn to speak ze common language?

Then she follows behind while urging the pair forward.

Urbar mutters as he easily steps aside from the weapons.
"Is this really necessary?"

"Even my patience has diminished. Just put the stabby end of your sword into the kobolds, Urbar!"

Ery Shifts and casts Guidance on Lock.
"Id weaken them...but I cant see them..."

Locke lets go of his bow with one hand, and draws his morningstar.

Fiona moves forward and wants to cast slumber on one of the kobold, but she can't see any from her position.

@Fiona: you may retcon, if you wish.

Because they already acted in the surprise round:
AoO Blue: Trip with Guisarme: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (18) - 1 = 17 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2
Reflex Gwen: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
AoO Red: Guisarme: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (18) - 1 = 17 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Gwendallyn moves forward while ejecting her dan bong from it wrist sheath. She moment she comes within their reach, one of the kobolds trips Gwendallyn, and she barely avoids tumbling face first into the water. While Gwendallyn hits the ground instead of the water, the other kobold wielding a guisarme stabs her.

@Gwen: You could still grapple while prone, but you may change your standard action.

"A lot, I haven't counted them," Nighttail answers Tereze. "I'm from another tribe, originally. I took interest in learning Common, because it allows me to negotiate with most other humanoids. The current situation proves that it's a good thing I did invest time in it."

Eryzule casts guidance on Locke.

Round 1:
Tereze
Fiona --> May retcon
Eryzule
Gwendallyn 25/29HP (Prone) --> May retcon standard action
Locke - Guidance
Green Kobold
Blue Kobold
Nighttail
Urbar
Red Kobold

I'll leave her actions as posted. I think that should be successful even with the penalty for prone. Think you're safe from me just because I'm on the ground??? Mwa-hahaha!

I moved Fiona a bit further into the room, she'll still cast the Slumber hex on blue.
