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

Game Master Irish202

Gwen sighs in annoyance. "Why couldn't they place some guardians here for us to fight? I can't wrestle a trap..."

"I'm kinda forget what we are here for... Do we want to poke the resting?" Ery says, peering around.

"My theory is who ever is within that there box, obviously wants to help us and will give us vast re- yeah... I cant even pretend. If we keep going and their is a need for a key, my bet would be in there..."

"That would be ironic, yes.
Who's up to test that theory by walking past the statues?"

(Looks slightly sideways to Urbar and Gwen)

Urbar stares right back at Locke, daring him to say it aloud.
"Anyone with some of that detect magic? Not going head first into a trap we could have foreseen...."

Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 Meh...

Let me see...

Tereze casts Detect magic and looks down the stairs.

She looks down the stairs and quietly mumbles to herself:
Zis really is not what I am good at...

Tereze doesn't detect any magic down the spiral stairs.

When she looks inside the room with the statues and sarcophagus, Tereze does detect magic from both the sarcophagus and four of the statues. She's fairly sure there's valuable loot in the sarcophagus, and also fairly sure the four statues will animate as soon as anyone enters the room.

Ze stairs are clear of magic. Zat room however is not. Zere is powerful magic in ze coffin as well as enchantments on ze statues.

"The assumption about the statues is confirmed, then.
Is anyone equipped to bash hard enough to destroy them?"

Urbar thinks to himself for a moment before answering the question.
"No. My swords will not do much. I have some traps that may aid us though."
He gets out two bear traps from his pack and starts preparing them.
"Where shall I put them? They may slow up to two of them."

Gwen looks around the room and her companions. "Then let them come at us one at a time. We can use this doorway here as a choke-point. I can wrestle them to the ground one at a time and block the doorway with me body to keep the others out while you all chip away at the one I'm holding. Just keep me on my feet, Tereze."

I will keep you up.

Fiona swiftly casts her hex, squeezing Gwen's shoulder in support while bestowing upon her some magical protection.

Ward hex on Gwen, +2 to AC and saves until hit.

Waiting for someone to initiate something.

Fiona shifts uneasily, waiting for something to happen.

Whoops...

Urbar moves down the stairs and places a trap at the bottom on the floor. He steps over the trap, waiting for the statues to trigger. Once they start moving he quickly moves back again, waiting for the first to trigger the trap.

Red circle is meant to be the bear trap.

"So..."
Ery shift foreword enough to use his tangle vine to flip off the lid of the center stone coffin.
"I'm doing a thing."

Sorry, busy week at work and then sick kiddo at home...

Once Urbar has his traps in place Gwen will follow Ery into the room, prepared to quickly shove him back into the stairwell once the trap is sprung. She has her dan bong in hand and will place herself just inside the doorway, ready to grapple the first statue that makes it to her...

Locke reaches for the shoulder strapped bow.

"Here goes nothing, eh."

The moment Urbar steps over his trap the four statues closest to him start moving. Heat starts to ripple the air near them as they turn into squat, brass-skinned humanoids and their heads and shoulders start blazing with manes of fire.

Urbar quickly jump back, to stand behind his trap. There's no longer a need for Eryzule to move forward, which is why he stays in a safe position instead of moving forward.

Round 1:
Eryzule
Locke
Gwendallyn
Blue thingy
Tereze
Urbar
Green thingy
Yellow thingy
Red thingy
Fiona

Gwen hesitates a little when she notices the statues begin to burn. "This is really going to hurt...." She shifts into a very defensive stance and readies an action to grapple the very first statue to reach her!

Readied Grapple: 1d20 + 17 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 17 - 2 = 31

Swift Action - Snapping Turtle Style (+1 Shield bonus to AC). Move Action - Martial Flexibility to gain Dodge (+1 Dodge bonus to AC). Standard Action - Readied Grapple maneuver w/ Combat Expertise (+2 Dodge bonus to AC). Effective AC of 21.

As Locke can't yet see them...

"I take it some started moving? Anything special about them?"

"They're on fire."

Wait zey are on Fire! Gwen, you can not grab zen!

She looks around in panic.
Can anyone protect her from Fire?

"Yes, but i need a little time."

Locke glugs down an extract of injection touch.

@Gwen: remember that you have Fiona's Ward hex, which is another +2 to AC and to all saves (till you get hit or fail a saving throw, but I can renew that).

Fiona gasps, then blurts out "I can try to protect her with my magic, but it won't be enough!"

Could someone post for Eryzule? He'll be unable to post for a while.

Eryzule looks casually at Gwen.

"Oh? I thought i had sole privilege, to be on fire for you.
I guess i will have to rectify the situation."

Eryzule walks past Locke and Tereze, and lays his hand on her shoulder.
"Go get them."

Guidance on gwen.

solid

Back!

Gwendallyn shifts into a defensive stance and readies to grapple the first enemy to come within her range.

Locke mixes an extract of injection touch that will later help protect Gwendallyn from fire.

Eryzule casts guidance on Gwendallyn.

One of the fiery brass-skinned humanoids walks over to the bear trap, takes a look at it, and smacks it to the side with its warhammer.

Round 1:
Eryzule
Locke
Gwendallyn
Blue thingy
Tereze
Urbar
Green thingy
Yellow thingy
Red thingy
Fiona

Hmm, this may be a long fight. Maybe I can help this go quicker

Caden, patron of heroes,
Grant us a mug of courage as we face zese flaming statues of death!
Casts Bless on the party. (+1 to Hit and saves vs Fear. Yes this stacks with guidance.)

Urbar goes full defense, waiting for the fiery humanoids to come closer.
"Anyone know anything about these things? Now might be the time to tell us..."

What rolls would apply?

Knowledge (Planes).

While Tereze casts bless on the party, Urbar goes full defense.

Green; Light Hammer: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

One of the humanoids moves up next to the one that knocked the bear trap aside, and draws a light hammer with his empty hand. He throws the light hammer at Gwendallyn, but it flies past her.

Ouch! Fire!: 1d6 ⇒ 6
Yellow; Warhammer: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Another one of the brass humanoids moves up to Gwendallyn and Urbar. Gwendallyn immediately grapples him, burning herself in the process. the humanoid tries to hit Gwendallyn with its warhammer, but misses.

Red; Warhammer: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20 Damage +1d6 Fire: 1d8 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 1 + (4) = 8

The last of the brass humanoids then also moves up to Gwendallyn and Urbar. Seeing as Gwendallyn's the easiest target to hit, he smacks his warhammer through the ward protecting her and into her side.

Round 1 (Bless active):

Fiona

Round 2 (Bless active):
Eryzule
Locke
Gwendallyn (Grappled)
Blue thingy
Tereze
Urbar
Green thingy
Yellow thingy (Grappled)
Red thingy
Fiona

"Here, this will protect you from moderate harm from fire."
Locke touches Gwen's shoulder, granting her fire resistance 10.

Kn. Arcana for statues?: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19

Steph, I think that attack should miss Gwen. Before initiating her Grapple, Gwen had an AC of 21 with all the bonuses. Fiona hit her with the ward which would up Gwen's AC to 21. With the Grappled condition applied, Gwen takes a -4 penalty to Dex, which would drop her AC by 2 points down to an effective AC of 21 again.

Thanks, Locke! That'll save me quite a bit of pain.

Gwen immediately grits her teeth against the searing pain of grappling the statue, biting down on her lip to keep from crying out! With a sigh of relief from Locke's magic, Gwen immediately wrestles the creature to the ground and holds it place. "Urbar, doing your thing!"

Maintain Grapple (Pin): 1d20 + 17 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 17 + 5 - 2 = 37

Assuming Gwen's ward is still in place (it gets broken if she is hit):
Fiona lets herself a small smile as one of the statues strikes Gwen but is blocked by some of the magic defenses bestowed upon her. She then begins to whisper a few words, gesturing in the air in Gwen's general direction.
Cast Enlarge Person on Gwen, will take effect in Round 2.

No problem. ;)

@Gwen: My bad! You're correct, the ward protected you! :)

@Everyone: Could someone post for Eryzule?

[ooc]Sorry I'm lacking guys, I'm trying to find time for these.[ooc]
Ery Casts Bane on the enemies! (DC 14)

While Locke gives Gwendallyn protection from fire, Fiona starts casting a spell to enlarge Gwendallyn, and Gwendallyn herself pins the creature she's holding down.

CL check vs Blue: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
CL check vs Green: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15
CL check vs Red: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14
CL check vs Yellow: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

Will Green: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Will Red: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
Will Yellow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Eryzule casts bane on the enemies, but none of them is affected.

Blue; Light Hammer: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

One of the enemies draws a light hammer that he throws at Urbar, but the deft ranger uses one of his swords to knock the hammer out of the air.

Round 2 (Bless active):
Eryzule
Locke
Gwendallyn (Grappled)
Blue thingy
Tereze
Urbar
Green thingy
Yellow thingy (Pinned)
Red thingy
Fiona

"Huh. That's embarrassing. Must be performance anxiety." Ery sighed passively as he looked to Gwen with a shrug.

Urbar attacks the statue Gwen is grappling, hoping to make it a quick end to the first one.

Atk: 1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 9 - 2 = 8
Dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Atk: 1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 9 - 2 = 9
Dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

The ranger only sees spots as he tries to attack, the fire blinding his eyes.

I think Tereze/Fiona are the only ones that can identify these things. Would it be okay for one of us to make those rolls for them? Or perhaps GM could do it?

If they are planes yes, i rolled kn arcana earlier on.

Urbar you forgot bless I think, not that it would matter.

Tereze looks at the flaming creatures trying to tell what they are before they hurt her friend.
Religion: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Planes: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Zere are a lot of zem, may be it is time for another ally, yes?

With that Tereze sends her thoughts far out casting a call for some help from the distant Planes of existence.
Flaming statues... maybe something that can't burn...
Starts casting summon monster II

Oh my gosh, these rolls!

"They remind me of dwarves...just on fire..." He snickers.

I guess I'll roll for Fiona.

Knowledge (Planes): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17

Fiona's able to identify the creatures as azers; outsiders from the plane of fire. They're immune to fire and vulnerable to cold.

You may ask one question about the azers.

Tereze starts casting a summoning spell while Urbar flails his arms in the air.

Escape pin: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

While the green azer goes total defense, the yellow one tries and fails to escape Gwendallyn's pin.

Red; Warhammer: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20 Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

The red azer tries to hit Gwendallyn again, but fails once more.

Ery uses tangle vine in an attempt to disarm RED
Disarm attempt with Tangle vine: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Gwen should be enlarged now.
Realizing what the creatures are, Fiona quickly casts one of her hexes at them.
Slumber hex on red.
