[PFS] Teamwork Experiment Table Æroden

Game Master Nathan Hartshorn

Sorry. I forgot my trash damage.

Reflex DC 20: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 11 + 2 = 15 12 Damage

Reflex DC 20: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 2 = 25 5 Damage

Will!: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Cries of pain and suffering start rumbling out from the crowd of people. "My eyes! My leg!" Seems some of them are getting jostled and trampled in the confusion. They are packed so densely on the pier that some of them are even being pushed off as your crew gathers in the boat and starts sailing downriver. Combat over!

Questioning the men you've captured yields less information than you've hoped for. It appears they were set up as bait in a trap by the cult to lure you in and take you out with otherworldly help. They were set up with food, drink, and shiver for a week and told to kill whomever showed up.

Kontha will sniff at one of the drug addicts.

"Sigh. We really need to find some kinda of mastermind behind all this. But I'm stuck."

Dropping the shiver addicts off with some members of the Guard and describing what happened to Cora brings a smile to her face. "We've got them now," she crows. "Come with me to Magistrate Drune, we'll get something sorted."

When you get to the magistrate's office he explains that this act of attempted murder has finally given him the ability to write a warrant. "Now we can get to Greeley who will be able to give us more information about the cult itself."

I'll have to get some things set up for the next part.

He nods.

Magistrate Drune calls in a mind mage to sift through the shiver addicts' minds to see if there isn't something hidden by all of the drugs. She relays some of the big things coming through the haze. The Night Market. The Red Oliphant. Two windows peering down from on high.

Back to the Night Market?

"We'd better check out the Red Oliphant then!" Cyrene suggests, apparently none the worse for her dunking.

"With a broadly written warrant I hope!"

As you approach the Night Market you see an olive robed man quickly leaving the fountain sitting in the center.

"Hrm, what are the chances he's just going about his business vs we should tackle him?"

Kontha, fetch the half orc says to the dinosaur and pointing to the fleeing man.

Kontha runs after the man.

"Uh, 100% we should tackle him. No one runs from justice unless they have something to hide."

As Kontha begins heading toward the man he pulls a strange sickle from his robes and prepares to fight.

I have to pull up a different map for this one tonight.

Order 1st Round
Deacon
Dulomak and Kontha
Band [R: 0, B: 0, G: 0, Y: 0]
Marina, Cyrene, Dissa

Is Deacon the bad guy?

Yep. That's a position rather than a name. I'll get pictures and stuff uploaded when I get to a computer that lets me use google drive.

A chess set :)

The robed man recognizes you (or at least recognizes Kontha as there are likely to be few if any T-rex in the city) and prepares for battle. He casts a spell DC 17 Spellcraft reveals it is protection from good and shudders before a second copy of him appears. Copycat ability

it is a good neither Kintha nor he are good ;)

The half orc will concentrate and pull out some spell components and summon a burning sphere which he rolls at the bishop and them move up.
3d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 5) = 16 damage. DC 14 REFLEX to avoid.

The half orc will then point to the red baddy and tell Kontha to attack.

The T-Rex will move up and bite at red
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Spellcraft 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
The cleric is warding himself against attacks from those of us who are good.

"Oh." Cyrene replies. "That probably isn't good..." She claps her hands and speeds her friends.

Haste.

Reflex!: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

The olive robed man tumbles away from the sphere as it comes racing towards him. Meanwhile Kontha's rush catches one of the dealers by surprise, allowing her to rip into him with her large teeth.

The man's response is swift, a dagger appearing almost by magic from his hand to slash at the rex.

Slash!: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Luckily her skin is too tough for the small weapon. The rest of the dealers hiding in the shadows step out and open fire with hand crossbows, trying to hit anyone they can.

Thrum (Dulomak)!: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Thrum (Dissa)!: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Thrum (Marina)!: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

The bolts are all poorly aimed, going every which way but at their targets.

"You have made your last mistake. Cyrene has bolstered us all, and your death has been hastened!" Dissa calls out as he charges the Deacon.

Charge Power Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 11 + 2 + 1 = 30
Charge Damage: 1d10 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24

"Why do you have to be like this?" Marina says, as she tries to trip green.

trip: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22

Copycat <51: 1d100 ⇒ 74

Dissa's strike cuts into the real cultist rather than his image, leaving a horrid gash in his robes. The man Marina throws to the ground grunts and snarls, "You ever try living on the street lady?! It's just a living!"

The cultist growls, raising a strange spider-leg looking sickle into the air crying out, "Mog-Lothar! Grant me the swiftness to escape my enemies!" He then slips forward, too quickly for anyone to react and moves around Kontha, taking the opportunity to swipe at her with his strange sickle. Casts grace, which doesn't provoke AoOs, then moving to location on map.

Slash!: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 2 = 14

Even with the strange surety of foot the cultist doesn't manage to hit Kontha at all.

Marina, Cyrene, Dissa

Did he cast cat's grace? I do not see anything in the description of the spell that says it does not in incur an AoO for moving or casting the spell.

The half orc takes a 5' step and tries to smash the man he is flanking with his flail and a power attack
1d20 + 8 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 4 - 1 = 13
1d10 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 2 = 8 if it hit

The dinosaur attempts to bite the man she is flanking
1d20 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 7 + 4 = 23
1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Did he cast cat's grace? I do not see anything in the description of the spell that says it does not in incur an AoO for moving or casting the spell.

He cast the spell Grace, not Cat's Grace, so no provocation.

What an interesting spell

Dulomak's flail swishes through the image of the deacon, missing the target, but popping the fake along the way. With the way cleared Kontha's teeth sink into the true enemy easily.

The thugs all around start dropping their crossbows to pull out daggers, slick with some purple substance, or stand drawing as they go.
Blue moves, fires bolt at Kontha, red attacks Kontha, green stands attacks Marina, yellow flanks with green attacks Marina.

Thrum!: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Stab (K)!: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 5 + 2 = 26
Slash (M)!: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 2 = 12
Jab (M)!: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 5 + 2 = 19
Confirm: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 5 + 2 = 21

Oh, they just have a hard time hitting Marina, interesting. It doesn't change anything since they missed, but Marina's favorite Aoo is disarm (which still provokes since she doesn't have improved disarm yet) so that can be that attack.

Marina tries to relieve green of his weapon.
"You could join the guard, or learn a trade. I was a fisherwoman.

Aoo's render flat footed until end of next turn, DC 15 reflex negates
disarm: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19

Then on her turn, she uses a flurry to attempt to trip both of them and disarm yellow with haste.
I'll roll some Aoo's in advance too if they try to stand or retrieve their weapons. These can be straight non-lethal attacks.

trip: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24green
trip: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18yellow
disarm yellow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 +4 if yellow prone

Aoo's render flat footed, DC 15 reflex negates
aoo: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11+4 if prone
damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
aoo: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25+4 if prone
damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
aoo: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24+4 if prone
damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Dissa sees the perfect layout for his team, thankful they have been together for so many years, even if some of them are new.

"You were warned. Now it is time for you to join the River of Souls."

Dissa uses his Gang Up feat to attack the flanked Deacon with his first attack.

Flanked Power Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 11 + 4 + 1 = 23
Flanked Damage: 1d10 + 14 ⇒ (9) + 14 = 23

He then shifts his gaze to the two thugs flanking Marina. He takes his iterative attack on the prone Yellow.

Prone Power Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 4 + 1 = 15
Iterative Damage: 1d10 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18

Dissa then takes a 5' step forward and takes his haste attack on green while prone.

Prone Power Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 11 + 4 + 1 = 33
Haste Damage: 1d10 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24

Being in the center of the group should give Dissa an AoO against Deacon, Red, Yellow, or Green if anyone else gets an AoO. Dissa will also get an AoO on Deacon if either Kontha or Dulomak get a critical hit, thanks to Gang Up and Outflank.

AoO 1 Power Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 11 + 4 + 1 = 33
AoO 1 Damage: 1d10 + 14 ⇒ (2) + 14 = 16

AoO 2 Power Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 11 + 4 + 1 = 17
AoO 2 Damage: 1d10 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19

AoO 3 Power Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 11 + 4 + 1 = 23
AoO 3 Damage: 1d10 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 22

The cultist is quickly taken care of, as well as one of the men surrounding Marina. The other is disarmed, on his back, and bleeding heavily from a nasty slash from Dissa.

8s it a know nature tondiaxern posion?

Cyrene, seeing no need to get involved just yet, snaps her fingers and pummels the flattened fighter with bolts of magic.

Magic Missile: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 4, 4) + 3 = 15

Just trying to take him out of the fight for good.

lol, that is what I get for typing on my phone. Would you need a Know Nature to identify poisons?

In this particular case Kn. (Nature) or Craft (Alchemy) can be used. DC is 12.

The first of Cyrene's bolts finishes off the fallen man. You can redirect the other 2 elsewhere, just name your preference.

Cyrene and Dulomak, move action to reposition the flaming sphere and target the recipient of two magic missiles? #Teamwork?

Lets say Red then :) closest to the flaming sphere I think?

Know nature 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

I am glad that the big guy is gone :)

The half orc will move up and try to smash red
No one tries to posion Kontha

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Kontha turns around and tries to bite
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
