[PFS] The Long Campaign (Season 4 Scenarios) Reborn

Game Master Gary Pepper

The Lionfish - Round 2 - continued

Marianna steps up protecting Juis' flank and attacking Green, but her sword blade misses.

Blue Pirate steps back towards the mainmast and attacks the screaming eagle. But his slashing attack is mostly defensive and does not hit the celestial bird.

Nylthe and her eagle are up now, along with Wilen and Okuru.

Blue Pirate cutlass: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Nylthe slips as she tries to clamber up the rope, but is barely strong enough to keep from slipping into the drink!

Climb: 1d20 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 - 2 = 1

The eagle, unaware of her struggles, continues its shrieking assault on the pirate!

Talons (Smite): 1d20 + 3 + 0 ⇒ (10) + 3 + 0 = 13
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Talons (Smite): 1d20 + 3 + 0 ⇒ (11) + 3 + 0 = 14
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Bite (Smite): 1d20 + 3 + 0 ⇒ (20) + 3 + 0 = 23
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Confirm: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12
Extra Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Wilen sighs, seeing two pirates directly in his face they might get free slashes at him as he tries to throw a bomb. He decides to try anyway.

Throw bomb at red: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
Using precise bombs, exclude the NW square where wilen would be on a direct hit
Fire damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
If it misses it lands...: 1d8 ⇒ 3 => in the water, off of the boat. So I would presume nobody gets splash damage. Not sure of the mechanic there actually.. would it blow up before dropping all of the way...

Unable to get enough traction, Nylthe tries to clamber up the rope, but ends up slipping back down into the smaller craft once again. On the deck her summoned eagle continues the fight against Blue Pirate, ripping at the villian's flesh with its beak, while the talons cannot harm the target.

As Wilen readies his explosive concoction, he leaves himself open to attacks from a pair of the pirates but both attacks miss. For his trouble, Red Pirate takes the bomb right in the face. The fire hurts the target, but does not kill him.

Okuru is up next. Will run him on my next check if no post.

Red AoO Cutlass: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Green AoO Cutlass: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

whose turn is it?

whose turn is it?

Okuru is up next. Will run him on my next check if no post.

Okuru, it really is your turn. Need a post soon, or I will DM-PC him. Giving an extension since at least he checked in...

He will cast daze on one of the pirates that is being attacked,

DC 16 wILL

The Lionfish - Round 2 - concluded

Casting a mind-affecting spell on the nearby Green Pirate, Okuru lets out a frustrated bark as the scurvy seaman shakes off the daze.

One more pirate, Yellow, appears answering the call to action. He can only advance to the eagle's position before the round ends.

End of Round 2

The grippli officer advances on the far side of the ship, and when just past the mainmast, he tosses an explosive device of his own targeting Juis and splashing flaming liquids on Okuru and Marianna. Juis bears the brunt of the explosion, taking serious damage.

Red Pirate rushes at Wilen with the idea of pushing the little fellow over the railing and back into the sea. Since Wilen has no melee weapon, he cannot attack as the pirate lowers his shoulder into him, smashing him up against the railing of the gunwale and over the other side. The halfling falls 20' but lands in the boat atop Nylthe with a thump.

Juis is up. Bomb does 8hp dmg to Juis, and 3 splash damage to Marianna and Okuru unless they make a DC 13 Reflex to halve (that'd be 1). Wilen can have an Acrobatics DC 15 check to avoid damage from first 10' of falling, but must take at least 1d6 of falling damage. See my note in Discussion for more on this.

Mumbuckle bomb touch: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
Bomb dmg to Juis: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Red Pirate bullrush vs CMD 12, railing circumstance bonus: 1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (16) + 3 - 4 = 15

Wilen is anything but surprised, sighing as one of the two pirates bum-rushes him over the railing.

Groooooooan. And they have an alchemist tooooooo....

acrobatics, avoid first 10' of damage, DC15: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Thud

Fall damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

He nimbly maneuvers himself in mid-air with his toes on the side of the boat and when he final hits, he's left with only a dull pain in his ankles.

Well, that could have been worse. Sorry, Nylthe.

Wincing from the blast tossed at him, Juis quickly heals himself slightly before stepping closer to the enemy the eagle is facing.

Cure Light Wounds on self: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Ugh... been rolling a lot of 1s lately.

Standard: Spell
Move: 10'

The Lionfish - Round 3 -continued

Juis calls on his divine healing to close up some of the wounds inflicted by the bomb-throwing grippli, but the magic isn't fully enough to get him back to full health.

Green Pirate makes a sweeping cut at Marianna. The blade clangs off the cavalier's armor. The Green Pirate takes a step back moving shoulder to shoulder with his Red ally.

Marianna up next.

Green Pirate cutlass: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12

Okay, first things first
Reflex,DC 13: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
3 damage then

Noting how effective the crew is against her armor, Marianna decides to take a chance. Ignoring the other pirates, she dives straight at the frog in charge, hoping to neutralize that threat as quickly as possible. However, her swing is horribly wide as she whiffs entirely.

Move - Blue gets an AoO against me[ooc]
[Ooc]Standard action - attack Vs. Mumbuckle

attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8For: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Bah...

reflex 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

The Lionfish - Round 3 - continued

Marianna takes all of the splash damage while Okuru is able to avoid most of it. The cavalier prefers frontal assault and despte the hazard of Blue Pirate's cutlass, she rushes for the crew's leader, the bomb-tossign frog-man.

Surprised by her bold move, Blue Pirate makes a feeble attempt to slash at Marianna's side which she easily avoids. Her own attack on the grippli officer fails to connect as he dodges the blade with grace and agility.

Seeing the celestial eagle engaged with his fellow, Blue forgets about Marianna and moves to flank the summoned bird, which seems an easier target than the heavily armored paladin. The back stab into the eagle works, and the damage is enough that the celestial raptor blinks out of existence. The pirate whoops with victory, ready to drive more of the attackers away.

Nylthe and Wilen (still both in the boat now) and Okuru are up next.

Blue AoO cutlass: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Blue cutlass, flank: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 3 + 2 = 14
Blue dmg, sneak: 1d6 + 3 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 3 + (4) = 11

Again to the top... Wilen mutters to himself.

Climb, DC5: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21 What a thing to blow a nat20 on :P

Nylthe winces as her minion's connection to this plane is severed, but with a resigned shrug she focuses and brings forth another eagle, resplendent in white and gold.

Can't edit the map till tomorrow, but the eagle appears west of Okuru, and northeast of Blue, attacking Blue.
Bite (Smite): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Talons (Smite): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

He will attempt to daze another, and different pirate.
DC 16 WILL

The Lionfish - Round 3 - concluded

Nylthe brings back another celestial eagle after the first one was brought to an inglorious end. This one rakes Blue Pirate with its talons and takes all the fight out of the buccaneer who lands face first on the deck.

Moving lightly, Wilen scrambles back up to the deck to start all over again.

Okuru tries his dazing magic, this time selecting Green Pirate who threatens Wilen once again. This time the kitsune grins as the eyes of his target glaze over.

Yellow Pirate steps over and engages with Juis, taking a murderous cut a the oracle with his cutlass. The blow would've finished most Pathfinders, but Juis is well-armored and survives the stroke.

End of Round 3

Green Pirate DC 16 Will: 1d20 ⇒ 10

Stepping away from Marianna for a moment the frog-man tosses another incendiary device at her barely hitting her as the bomb explodes.

Red Pirate, fresh off tackling Wilen, now tries to sever his limbs with a sweep of his cutlass but the alchemist is able to dodge the serious blow.

Marianna takes 3hp dmg from the direct bomb hit. Juis is up next.

Mumbuckle bomb, touch: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Bomb dmg: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Red Pirate Cutlass: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

Glad one of the pirates is down, Juis confronts the pirate that just attacked him by swinging his mace at the misguided soul.

Light Mace vs Yellow: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

The Lionfish - Round 4 - continued

Juis smashes his mace at the pirate in front of him, but the seaman moves just enough for the blow to be absorbed by his armor rather than crushing his shuolder and is unharmed.

Rather than attacking or moving, Green Pirate loses time while dazed by the hypnotic magic from Okuru.

All the rest of the Pathfinders are up now.

Marianna surges forward, intent on keeping pressure squarely on the bomb-tossing grippi. As she steps in, she drops her blade into a low position before swinging up along the front of her target, accenting her strike with a cry of, "YIELD!"

5-foot
Attack vs. Mumbuckle

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23 For: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

or be shaken

Nylthe finally climbs the rope on board the ship as her eagle plunges into the fray once more!

Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4

The Lionfish - Round 4 - continued

Striking the grippli alchemist, Marianna hurts him quite badly. A blubbering wail escapes the officer's lips but he doesn't go down or yield despite the demand from the cavalier.

Nylthe finally arrives on the deck and points at the Red Pirate. Her eagle minion complies screeching and shredding with its talon and ripping the target with its beak, felling the buccaneer.

Okuru reaches out to touch the Yellow Pirate, sending a shiver of fear and loathing through the man.

Will give Wilen till tomorrow then run him as well.

With only one pirate left in front of him, after the climb back up to the ship, Wilen is appreciating the additional space to maneuver in. He carefully steps back from the nearby pirate 5' step and lobs a bomb at him.

Throw bomb at green: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
Using precise bombs, exclude the NW and W squares
Fire damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
If it misses it lands...: 1d8 ⇒ 6 SE of green, he would take splash damage
Splash damage: 1 + 3 = 4

It's looking like we're turning the tide here on the ship!

The Lionfish - Round 4 - concluded

Wilen gets his feet under him on the deck, slides back, and pitchs a grenade at Green Pirate who has been dazed. The explosive hits dead center and does serious damage to the pirate, but he still remains upright.

Not having been hurt yet, Yellow Pirate is still pretty spirited and he slashes at the fox-like Okuru trying to turn the tide of the battle singled-handedly. The blade gashes Okuru, wounding him badly, and making his consciousness a question. The pirate then steps back from the onslaught.

Okuru is hit for 9hp more.

End of Round 4

Yellow cutlass: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

8 Yellow Pirate

Still keeping away from the blade of Marianna as much as possible, the grippli tosses another explosive at the cavalier.

Green Pirate throws his hands up, and drops to his knees. "Yield! This tub ain't worthy dyin' for!" he calls, surrendering.

All the Pathfinders are up now.

Mumbuckle bomb, touch: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18
Bomb dmg: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Marianna responds to the attack with continuing her own assualt, swinging laterally at the grippi as she advances.

5-foot
Attack vs. Mumbuckle

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17For: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Wilen looks past his teammates at the pirate standing in the center of the boat.

Hmm, that one looks too clean. Let's catch him up with the others!

Throw bomb at yellow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
Using precise bombs, exclude the NW, N, and NE squares
Fire damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
If it misses it lands...: 1d8 ⇒ 3 SE of yellow, he would take no damage

The Lionfish - Round 5 - continued

Marianna pursues the bomb-lobbing amphibian across the deck and just when she thinks she has a killing stroke, the grippli's magically enhanced agility lets him dance out of the way of her stroke.

Wilen also continues chucking explosives around the deck. This one lands on Yellow, who was previously uninjured, but after the explosion rocks him, the Yellow Pirate is 100% disabled, barely able to stand or act. All the fight appears to be out of him, though he somehow remains upright.

Juis, Okuru, and Nylthe are still up.

Seeing that Okuru is badly injured, Juis draws out his wand and touches Okuru to help heal him.

Wand of CLW on Okuru: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

The kitsune will thank the oracle for his healing.

He will take a 5' step away from the action, so he wont get hit and will fire acid at the froggy
1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 - 4 = 5 rta

I will run Nylthe here to keep the round moving.

The Lionfish - Round 5 - concluded

Juis heals the wounded fox, who in his turn steps away from the fight and flings acid across the deck, but the goo hits the mast instead.

Nylthe directs her eagle to finish off the Yellow pirate, and the bird swoops on the target with beak and talons, scratching the pirate and taking him out of the fight.

The summoner herself moves over and kicks away the weapon from the surrendering pirate, starting to bind him up.

End of Round 5

Eagle Beak: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
Eagle Talon 1: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12

18 Green Pirate (7hp dmg, surrendered)
16 Marianna (6hp dmg)
10 Nylthe/Eagle
9 Wilen (1hp dmg)
9 Okuru (10hp dmg)

With his last deckhand surrendered, and blood pouring from the wound caused by Marianna, the grippli captain decides discretion is the better part of valor and drops his crossbow, holding his hand in the universal gesture of surrender. "The ship is yours," he calls, blubbering. "I will trade it for my life."

End of Combat

Juis goes around healing his companions and himself since the threat is over for now.

Wand of CLW on Marianna: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Wand of CLW on self: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Okuru should be at 3hp damage with Juis last healing.

Shit - Sorry guys! Glad the eagle did me proud

"But it's not your ship, is it? Where is your mistress?"

You can't give what isn't yours, Kermmy the kitsune says with a snarl at the frog-man.

Marianna tenses for just a second as if she's going to swing again, then takes the edge of her cape to clean her blade. Sheathing her sword, she glares at the grippi, before starting angrily, "From the way you and your shipmate acted, you're in charge right now. Where's Alejia?"

Aiding anyone who's willing to intimidate
Intimidate(Aid): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13 Good, that's a +3 bonus

Nice roll. He isnt an intimidator. He is a lover :)

Indeed, let's get some answers fast now. We were able to take your upper hand from you a bit too easily...

Not wanting to make any specific threats which as such may be alignment opposed :D, Wilen chooses to be vague, glare down the grippli and let it draw what conclusions it may.

Intimidate, aid Marianna, DC10: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18

So, we have two aids to the Intimidate, but no primary roll. Looks Nylthe has hte best bonus, so let's assume she takes the lead.

The pale half-elf prods her whip under the chin of the surrendered frog-man. "The cavalier asked you a question, don't make her have to ask twice, or you'll feel what the other end of this is like." She cracks the whip, and Mumbuckle's eyes widen with fear.

He stammers, "But she'll k-k-kill me if t-t-talk. Will you protect me? Will the Society give me sh-sh=shelter from her revenge?"

Nylthe Intimidate, 2 aids: 1d20 + 9 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 9 + 5 = 23

"Shelter can be arranged. As long as your information proves useful."

Darn, apologies, not sure how I missed that Marianna's roll was aid. Thankfully Nylthe's roll was great too.

Lol, Talk froggy, talk

Aiding anyone who's willing to intimidate
[dice=Intimidate(Aid)]1d20+1 Good, that's a +3 bonus

is that a cavalier ability, to get the +3 to aid rolls?
