[PFS] Your Ironbound Schism (Inactive)

Game Master Yours is mined

Zoot the unarmed blue-haired ogre takes off at a run to the south-west, ignoring the Pathfinders in his haste to flee the Inverted Guardians.

Pahg the angry half of Team Ettin is not impressed by his cowardice. “YOU FIGHT OR DIE, ZOOT!”

Pahg ONLY bastard sword AoO on Zoot: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (16) + 18 = 34
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (2, 5) + 9 = 16

No AoO from the bow-wielding Caradeum

Rowlf the black-haired giant takes a 5’ step to the south-east and attacks Caradeum.

Black Ogre Greatclub on Caradeum: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
damage: 2d8 + 7 ⇒ (7, 3) + 7 = 17

As Pahg’s head turns from the fleeing Zoot, the ettin’s four eyes focus on the lioness. “How many you killed, huh Kitty?”

Pahg bastard sword on Kirrah: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (3) + 18 = 21
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (5, 1) + 9 = 15

Pahg Iterative on Kirrah: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (6, 2) + 9 = 17

Pahg Hasted on Kirrah: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (14) + 18 = 32
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (8, 3) + 9 = 20

Vahr bastard sword on Kirrah: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (3) + 18 = 21
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (8, 8) + 9 = 25

Vahr Iterative on Kirrah: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (5, 4) + 9 = 18

Vahr Hasted on Kirrah: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (10) + 18 = 28
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (8, 4) + 9 = 21

Both Inverted Guardians move closer to the three-party battle. Varg’s flaming Smine’s Best ax creates enough of an obstacle to prevent the Huge Creature from charging Kirrah.

Once they’ve finished moving, Caradeum, Kirrah and Rowlf feel a shiver of fear run up their spines. Pahg-Vahr seems unaffected.

Black Ogre Will HUGE: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Black Ogre Will LARGE: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12

The black-haired ogre drops his club and looks ready to follow his blue-haired brother.

Man, Fear Aura (su) is not a very well-defined area of effect. I’m wondering if it’s line of sight like a dragon’s Frightful Presence (ex) or not. I’m going to rule it’s line of sight in the absence of anything to the contrary.

@Caradeum I need a Will save BEFORE you take your turn.

@Kirrah I need TWO Will saves before you take your turn. I'm not sure what Kirrah's AC is. Will assume AC 28, but could you please let me know if that is correct, Fendahl?

Initiative:

1. Ogres, Pahg-Vahr, Creepy Creatures
2. Aakif, Weiman, Caradeum, Fendahl + Kirrah, Varg, Brachus

Fendahl: -56 hp Defended by Kirrah ; remove fear in effect
Varg: -2 hp not wielding a weapon Fear effect suppressed for 10 minutes
Kirrah: 0 - 27 - 20 - 21 = -68 hp
Brachus: remove fear in effect

Party up!

Will: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 2 = 17 I'm thinking fear is a compulsion effect

"Here's a crazy idea. How about we stop those creatures from the cave, and you stop attacking us?!?”

Vahr looks on sadly at the damage she and her sister have inflicted on the proud lioness.

“Me ask couple of times what you clever-clogs think is wrong with Pahg. Only Kermit-killer elf answer and it not help.”

Pahg interrupts with a triumphant cry. "ME TOLD YOU SMALL FOODS NOT HELP US, VAHR!"

Sure, I'll reroll.
Folio Reroll: 1d20 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 7 + 4 = 31

Caradeum feels a cold chill run down his spine, then swallows hard seeking control of his emotions.

Seeing the fear in the eyes of the ogres, Caradeum risks darting past the fleeing monsters, then casts a spell, creating a gust of wind blowing at the ogre, ettin, and two introvert newcomers.

Concentration DC 19: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

river of wind DC 19

@GM, yes AC28 for Kirrah. Also, doesn't Fendahl also need fear saves, albeit at +4? Or is he out of range?

Kirrah will v fear: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Kirrah will v fear: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

Fendahl will v fear: 1d20 + 13 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 13 + 4 = 32
Fendahl will v fear: 1d20 + 13 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 13 + 4 = 26

After the beating she has taken, Kirrah is no match for the dual terrors joining the fray and she tries to bolt.

@GM - assuming she will flee south, if she makes it that far. Assuming he saves, Fendahl waits to see the result of the wind blast before deciding his action.

Thanks, Fendahl! I missed you hiding in the bushes. Both Will saves succeed.

It turns out, inside-out giants are not that scary to an elf who has lived his life among lions.

river of wind effect to be resolved now before Kirrah’s panicked action and Fendahl’s actions.

Caradeum rightly suspects he has little to fear from the panicked ogres, as the breath from his lungs turn into a mini-tornado as it passes the elf’s lips.

Fort Black Ogre vs DC 19: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Fort Ettin: 1d20 ⇒ 10
Fort Inverted Giant: 1d20 ⇒ 7
Fort Inverted Ogre: 1d20 ⇒ 7

Though they certainly feel the buffeting affects of the winds, all manage to stay on their feet.

NL damage: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 2, 2) = 9 halved for successful save

Both Vahr and the Inverted Huge Thing take swipes at the bolting Kirrah.

No change to AC because of panicked.

Vahr AoO bastard sword on Kirrah AC=28: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (1) + 18 = 19
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (1, 7) + 9 = 17

Huge Thing AoO bite on Kirrah: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (4) + 19 = 23
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (2, 3) + 9 = 14

Both attacks miss and Kirrah flees to the south.

Initiative:

1. Ogres, Pahg-Vahr, Creepy Creatures
2. Aakif, Weiman, Caradeum, Fendahl + Kirrah, Varg, Brachus

Fendahl: -56 hp remove fear in effect
Varg: -2 hp not wielding a weapon Fear effect suppressed for 10 minutes
Kirrah: -68 hp ; panicked
Brachus: remove fear in effect

Aakif, Weiman, Fendahl, Varg and Brachus to go.

Not planning on hanging around to get between the giants and the terror duo, Fendahl calls out to the Ettin...

Hrrmm, you ask what will cure your problem.
Kill these two headless giants and I suspect that will lead you on the road to recovery.
Call when you have finished and we can talk then.

Fendahl will withdraw into the woods, drawing his longbow as he strides.

If he encounters Varg and the barbarian needs a better weapon, he will hand him his +2 Keen Katana,
otherwise he keeps a weapon (bow/blade) in each hand and heads south after Kirrah.

Sorry guys, Fendahl cannot go toe-to-toe with the Ettin for long at 6 swings per round. @GM does the fear have a duration or just need to get out of range for Kirrah?

Sorry, I only had 1 remove fear..and with having to target Varg the options of other people to include were pretty limited at the time of casting. I can do one other thing...but then I'm not healing this round. But if Aakif can handle that part I can atleast get the lion back in the game

Brachus holds out his holy symbol and the air fills with the scent of warm hops and fermentation and people start to feel better

"Here Kitty, kitty, kitty". Everyone stay within 30ft of me if you can.

No problem Brachus. Even with the extra +4 the lion would still probably failed . When I first read your post I thought you could add 2 more targets beyond the 3. But I went back and re-read it

I cannot see the map at the office. Am I able to rush and retrieve my Great Axe and return to the others in the woods to see how this plays out? If so, that is my turn.

If you cut through the woods (some of it difficult terrain, but the main way is blocked with giants) it looks like about 120' movement just to get to the axe. You could not make it back to the woods in the same move.

Round 2

Varg exits his Rage and Triple moves to reach his abandoned Axe, in a stealthy manner.

Stealth: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

Please add bonus for invisibility, if applicable.

"Fendahl, I can heal you or your cat right now. Your choice."

Aakif casts an empowered cure critical wounds and moves to heal Fendahl. Only if Fendahl requests will Aakif heal the cat this round instead.

Empowered CCW: 4d8 + 8 ⇒ (3, 2, 6, 4) + 8 = 23

35 healing to Fendahl.

Aakif keeps +2 AC from BoF.

@Aakif, Kirrah has fled 80’ to the south. Allowing for difficult terrain that would put her in motion at least 55’ from your current position. As stated in you post, I’d say your healing is going to Fendahl.

Aakif moves east and heals the withdrawing Fendahl.

@Brachus, Kirrah goes before you in initiative order and is outside the range of the Freedom’s Call ability when you have your turn. Everyone else is immune from the panicked condition, provided they stay within 30’ of you.

Brachus calms the fears of every Pathfinder, except Kirrah.

@Varg, I’m going to put you in Delay for now. I realize how important your axe is to you. You can still take actions after Weiman but before the Bad Guys if you want to.

Can you please let me know if you’re dropping out of rage or not?

Varg delays as he ponders the options for getting his axe back.

Initiative:

1. Ogres, Pahg-Vahr, Creepy Creatures
2. Aakif, Weiman, Caradeum, Fendahl + Kirrah, Varg, Brachus

Fendahl: 0 - 56 + 35 = -21 hp Aakif heal
Varg: -2 hp not wielding a weapon Fear effect suppressed for 10 minutes
Kirrah: -68 hp ; panicked

Weiman!

Fendahl bows in gratitude for the healing.

You have my thanks.

Looking over his shoulder at the enemies.

It may be best to let them fight it out.
"We have a saying in my land from Master Tadashi Adachi...“If the lion and dragon fight, they will both die.”

Ah sorry, I just saw the lion next to me on the map and went with that

Aakif smiles at Fendahl's words. "My thoughts exactly!

Then in a loud voice, Aakif exclaims "Vahr! I know what's wrong with Pahg! Those creatures from the cave have some power that scrambles your mind! If you don't believe me, think about our barbarian leaving the fight. Let's just say that he doesn't DO that on his own. Heck, sometimes we have trouble dragging him from a fight! If those two creatures are destroyed, Pahg's mind will be free! We can't defeat them on our own, but with YOUR help, we just might be able to win. Turn your full fury at those monsters, and together we can Rule the Galaxy defeat them!"

Bluff-plomacy: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (14) + 18 = 32

I will drop out of rage, and I was only in it for one round. So, the fatigue will last only 2.I will just wait it out in the woods until the fatigue ends, then I will dash for the axe!

And I may have missed it, but is the Ettin carrying or wearing anything that looks like, you know, a glowing evil artifact?

Delaying Weiman. It doesn’t look like he’s posted since Wednesday.

The blue-haired ogre takes off like a hare to the south-west and is gone!

Fort Black Ogre vs DC 19: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Fort Ettin: 1d20 ⇒ 16
Fort Inverted Giant: 1d20 ⇒ 8
Fort Inverted Ogre: 1d20 ⇒ 17

NL damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2 ; NL damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

All the giant-kin stay upright and take a little non-lethal damage from Caradeum's big blow.

The black-haired ogre moves out of Cara’s river of wind looking to head south past Weiman.

No AoO for the bow-wielding Cara. However …

Pahg is not impressed that another of her ogres has apparently given up on the cause.

“ME WARNED YOU, ROWLF!”

Pahg AoO bastard sword on Rowlf: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (16) + 18 = 34
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (5, 8) + 9 = 22

The ettin’s sword cleaves vertically through the back of the ogre’s skull down to its neck, instantly ending its life.

The elfdritch power of Cara's spell causes another blinding *FLASH* to emanate from the Inverted Horrors to a distance of 10'.

Ettin Fort - Only in range of Inverted Giant: 1d20 ⇒ 11

The ettin blinks its eyes at just the right time and is unaffected.

Discouraged from attacking Master Genwyllian by his windy river, Pahg-Vahr shifts 5’ to the east and full attacks the (red) Inverted Giant.

“It right call, Pahg. CASTY ELF STINK!”

Pahg bastard sword on IG: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (16) + 18 = 34
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (7, 1) + 9 = 17

Pahg Iterative on IG: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (2, 1) + 9 = 12

Pahg Hasted on IG: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (12) + 18 = 30
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (8, 2) + 9 = 19

Vahr bastard sword on IG: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (20) + 18 = 38
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (8, 6) + 9 = 23

Vahr Iterative on IG: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (2, 3) + 9 = 14

Vahr Hasted on IG: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (4) + 18 = 22
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (6, 6) + 9 = 21

CONFIRM on IG: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (16) + 18 = 34
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (5, 2) + 9 = 16

The Inverted Giant takes a substantial amount of damage from the ettin, but remains in a state to retaliate.

Honestly, once everyone is Haste'd (or can't stack benefits with Haste), Weiman is pretty much done with combat. Particularly since Invis kinda backfired, giving Weiman no good faith in the mental fortitude of the Ulfen. Delay is pretty much a go until everyone needs a buff refresher or some minor pinch Healing.

The Inverted Ogre responds with a 5’ step to the south-east out of the river of wind and full attacks the ettin.

IO bite + grab: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (7) + 15 = 22
damage: 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

IO claw: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (2) + 15 = 17
damage: 1d6 + 7 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 9 = 21 + fire: 1d4 ⇒ 2

IO claw: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (7) + 15 = 22
damage: 1d6 + 7 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 9 = 17 + fire: 1d4 ⇒ 3

All of its attacks miss.

The Inverted Giant (red) decides to stay in the river of wind and Vital Strike Pahg-Vahr.

Fort vs River of Wind DC 19: 1d20 ⇒ 8
NL damage: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 4, 3) = 10 halved for success

The monster stays upright in the breeze and attacks!

Vital Strike Bite + grab: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (1) + 19 = 20

The mini-hurricane prevents its maw from latching onto the ettin. Can't believe it! The Inverted Giant then risks leaving the winds again and an AoO from Vahr.

Fort Inverted Giant: 1d20 ⇒ 12

NL damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1 ; NL damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Vahr AoO bastard sword on IG: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (4) + 18 = 22
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (4, 6) + 9 = 19

Vahr narrowly misses the tactically withdrawing Creepy Creature.

2. Weiman, Varg, Aakif, Caradeum, Fendahl + Kirrah, Brachus

Fendahl: -21 hp
Varg: -2 hp not wielding a weapon ; Fear effect suppressed for 10 minutes ; Fatigued 1/2 rounds
Kirrah: -68 hp ; panicked

Party up!

Good grief, this has become a comedy of errors....

Caradeum casts another spell, conjuring a snowball and hurling it at the big ugly.

RTA: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27
Damage: 5d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 3, 2, 6) = 22 DC 16 Fort or staggered for a round.

The BIG! big ugly.

Huge creature to the north

Fendahl is still in favor of letting the giants duke it out on their own for awhile.
He looks back to see Kirrah running over the fields and far away.

I trust she will be all right. I wish she was not so injured, but she can take care of herself.

" Pahg-Vahr, see what we mean? You appear to be halfway to recovery."

Not sure what to expect from the three remaining giants, Fendahl will drop his bow, and
draw his metamagic rod as he moves somewhat to the west and casts Extended(via-rod) Resin-Skin upon himself.

Next, he will start to consider how to provide a distraction for Varg if the giants do not eliminate each other.

Fort Inverted Giant vs DC 16: 1d20 ⇒ 18

Caradeum’s ❄snowball❄ hits the Inverted Giant, but doesn’t do as much damage to the creature as the Eldritch Knight would have thought. The ancient evil also manages to shrug off the staggered effect.

Fendahl drops his bow, draws a metamagic rod and casts a spell.

"Pahg-Vahr, see what we mean? You appear to be halfway to recovery."

Pahg's response sounds ominous. "ME THINKS KERMIT-KILLER JUST USING PAHG-VAHR. ME SOON FIX THAT!"

Initiative:

1. Ogres, Pahg-Vahr, Inverted Guardians
2. Weiman, Varg, Aakif, Caradeum, Fendahl + Kirrah, Brachus

Fendahl: -21 hp resinous skin
Varg: -2 hp not wielding a weapon ; Fear effect suppressed for 10 minutes ; Fatigue will end at the CONCLUSION of the current round
Kirrah: -68 hp ; panicked

Weiman, Varg, Aakif and Brachus!

"Let's keep attacking from range. Help the ettin drop that... whatever it is, then move on to the next one!

A little quieter "If the ettin wants to talk afterwards, great. If not, we should be able to outrun him with Fervor."

Aakif keeps the +2 AC from Bof. He then moves next to Fendahl and casts cure moderate wounds (empowered) on Fendahl.

CMW: 2d8 + 8 ⇒ (3, 6) + 8 = 17

25 healing with the empower.

Pahg nods in agreement with the shining cleric’s statement. “YEAH, PAHG YOUR ALLY. WE GOOD TEAM, HOO-MAN. ME NOT TRYING TO KILL YOU. HA HA!”

Vahr looks even more concerned. “Just what are you up to, Pahg?”

Aakif heals the half-elven druid back to full health.

Initiative:

1. Ogres, Pahg-Vahr, Inverted Guardians
2. Weiman, Varg, Aakif, Caradeum, Fendahl + Kirrah, Brachus

Fendahl: FULL HEALTH resinous skin
Varg: -2 hp not wielding a weapon ; Fear effect suppressed for 10 minutes ; Fatigue will end at the CONCLUSION of the current round
Kirrah: -68 hp ; panicked

Weiman, Varg and Brachus!

Fendahl bow again as his wounds close with the healing offered by Aakif.

He grips his katana, ready to enter the fray with their new "ally".

Am I still fatigued for this round, or has it been 2?

Cleaver, you are still fatigued this round. OK next round.

Still a bit sleep deprived, but I think we are sticking around to fight with the ettin helping us against the others? And pretty much everyone in range seems healed

Brachus casts guidance on Fendhal

Weiman contemplates jumping into the windstream and using his peddler's rug as a parachute, but decided against it (for now.)

Delay.

-Posted with Wayfinder

I am going to delay Varg again, as I assume he is waiting to rid himself of fatigue.

Pahg-Vahr approaches the river of wind to the west.

Fort ettin vs DC 19: 1d20 ⇒ 13

Vahr puts up a hand to cover her face from the wind, but otherwise gets through upright and unscathed. The ettin passes the bow-wielding Caradeum as she moves 60’ towards the rest of the party.

Ranged weapon – No AoO for Cara

Pahg looks delighted to actually see the Pathfinders, as she moves through ground threatened by Weiman. “HERE YOU ARE! LET’S GET THIS PARTY STARTED. HEY INSIDE-OUT OGRE, THEY’RE OVER HERE!”

Weiman may take an AoO against Pahg-Vahr if he has a weapon drawn.

The ettin then swings her bastard swords at Brachus.

Pahg bastard sword on Brachus: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (10) + 18 = 28
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (6, 1) + 9 = 16

Vahr bastard sword on Brachus: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (19) + 18 = 37
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (8, 5) + 9 = 22

Vahr CRIT THREAT on Brachus: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (6) + 18 = 24
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (7, 5) + 9 = 21

The red fire swirling about the ettin crackles and fizzes, but holds for the moment. You suspect she only has one more hasted round remaining.

"THANK-YOU FOR DANCE HUMAN. ME DANCE CARD STILL FREE FOR NEXT TIME IF YOU WANT TO GO AGAIN!"

The Inverted Ogre gives off another burst of blinding white light.

Fort Pahg-Vahr: 1d20 ⇒ 10

Again the ettin is not blinded.

The smaller horror then takes a swipe at Pahg-Vahr with a claw as she moves away.

IO Claw AoO on Pahg-Vahr: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (8) + 15 = 23
damage: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 + fire: 1d4 ⇒ 3

The blow hits, ripping Pahg's right ear and a chunk of her cheek off. The Inverted Ogre then follows the ettin through the river of wind ...

IO Fort vs DC 19: 1d20 ⇒ 11

NL damage: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 3, 4) = 12 halved for successful save

... past Caradeum, approaching but not attacking Weiman. double-move

Pahg decides to welcome the Unexpected Party's latest guest - the giant way!

AoO on IO by Pahg: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (17) + 18 = 35
damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (7, 6) + 9 = 22

The Inverted Ogre receives a friendly *SMACK* in the face in greeting!

The Inverted Giant also gives off a blinding flash of light – but nobody is in range.

It then moves 30’ towards Caradeum into the river of wind ...

IG Fort vs DC 19: 1d20 ⇒ 11

NL damage: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 4, 6) = 17 halved for successful save

It also remains upright, as it strikes at the elf with a ROAR that matches that of the gusty stream.

Vital Strike bite + grab: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (5) + 19 = 24
damage: 4d8 + 9 ⇒ (4, 6, 7, 3) + 9 = 29

Grab Grapple vs Cara’s CMD: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (19) + 27 = 46 Yes, the +27 is correct

The Inverted Giant shakes the elf in its fangs, tipping him up as if he’s about to swallow him.

Just to let you know..I'm letting my shield take the crit from that (38 damage sounds a lot better then 59)

@ Brachus No worries! Is your AC still the same?

Initiative:

1. Ogres, Pahg-Vahr, Inverted Guardians
2. Weiman, Varg, Aakif, Caradeum, Fendahl + Kirrah, Brachus

Varg: -2 hp not wielding a weapon ; Fear effect suppressed for 10 minutes ; NOT fatigued
Brachus: -38 hp
Caradeum: -29 hp ; grappled
Kirrah: -68 hp ; panicked ; far away

Party up!

Broken;If the item is a suit of armor or a shield, the bonus it grants to AC is halved, rounding down. Broken armor doubles its armor check penalty on skills.. So my AC drops by 1 (and I still have the +2 bonus from the Blessing of Fervor)

And just checking, I didn't specificaly mention it but I intend to sustain the freedom's call aura for as long as I can to prevent the fear aura from working which also prevents grab from working on allies within 30 ft..so I think Cara isn't grabbed. If you rule that I should mention sustaining it..going to use liberting command as an immediate action to grant Cara an escape artist check with a +18 and hope for the best, otherwise keeping the aura going for another round

Brachus is hit twice bleeding and his shield taking the hit from one of the swings which causes it to split in half.

Brachus then holds up his holy symbol and fills the air with the smell of hop and the delightfull aftertaste of something bitter, yet sweet before taking a step to the side to try to get away from the crazed ettin

healing for the party (excluding enemies): 5d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 2, 6, 6) = 21

Damage: 16+22-21 = 17

My bad. I forgot about the Freedom's Call ability being in effect.

Kirrah: -68 hp ; panicked ; far away

Weiman, Varg, Aakif, Caradeum & Fendahl are up!

Fendahl, glad to see his fellow was not eaten alive, decides he has had about enough of the ettin in general.

"Pahg-Vahr, this decision will result in a serious setback in your treatment and recovery.
I am afraid it may be now be terminal."

Fendahl will spontaneously summon a tiger 10' behind the ettin (but within the freedom aura).
He will the stride forward with his katana in hand and threaten the ettin.

Intent is to provoke Aoo(Resin skin/DR and Reflex DC17) and set up flank.

"Mittens, charge now!"

Causing a Tiger [64hp] to appear (AC16 F10/R7/W3 G17/D25) Cold Iron claws/teeth.
Assuming that the aura will affect the tiger, but not Blessings of Fervor (otherwise add +2 to all of these).

Aug Tiger rake, pounce, flank: 1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 12 + 2 + 2 = 21 for dmg: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
Aug Tiger bite, confirm: 1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 12 + 2 + 2 = 19 for dmg: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 4) + 8 = 15

As you said Fendahl, Aura works, BoF does NOT for the tiger.

Pahg *HAWKS* and *SPITS* at Fendahl in reply, after collecting three hits from the summoned tiger. crit did not confirm. “ME GOOD WITH THAT, KERMIT-KILLER.”

Vahr briefly interrupts her sister, “But Pahg, don’t you think we should …”

“ME SAID ME GOOD WITH THAT, VAHR!!”

Fendahl’s intent to provoke an AoO from the ettin appears to work. Only Vahr can AoO

Vahr bastard sword AoO on Fendahl: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (16) + 18 = 34
slashing damage: 2d8 + 9 ⇒ (6, 4) + 9 = 19 so DR/5 piercing applies. I make that a hit for 14 hp damage. Can you please confirm, Fendahl?

Reflex vs DC 17: 1d20 ⇒ 15

Vahr grunts as Fendahl's body slimes her. But she manages to pull her blade free.

1. Pahg-Vahr, Inverted Guardians

Weiman, Varg, Aakif & Caradeum to go!

yes, hit for 14. Fendahl AC 29 and tiger AC 16 (14 with charge)

Round 5, Rage (5/19 Rds), Bull's Strength (1/20 Rds)

Varg chgs a Potion of Bull's Strength, and as he feels his muscles bulge, flies into a rage. He draws his MW Lucern Hammer and steps towards the nearest giant.

Cannot attack this Round, but will move within range for a melee attack on my next turn. The Fort save against the wind follows, if needed.

Fort: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27

Aakif chooses +2 AC, attacks and saves from BoF, and takes a few steps to line up a shot at the ettin.

"Anytime you want to stop attacking us, we'll help you fight those other things. We may even have spells to fix you - but we're not going to just let you keep attacking us."

Aakif casts a searing light at the ettin.

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 8 - 4 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 8 - 4 + 2 = 15 for 4d8 ⇒ (8, 1, 8, 4) = 21 damage.

@Cleaver, Both the Inverted Giant and Ettin are roughly the same distance from you. I am not comfortable deciding which one you are approaching, so can you please let me know?

If you go for the ettin, you don’t go through the river of wind. If you go Inverted Giant, you do. Your Fort save succeeds but you will still take some non-lethal damage.

If you use BoF for movement you will probably be able to full attack either giant next round with your Lucerne hammer.

Cleaver upends a potion flask down his neck, chucks the empty container at a tree in rage and manoeuvres with a superfluous ‘o’ towards one of the giants.

RTA on tree AC 10: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 To Varg's disgust, the tree lives to fight another day!

Aakif brings forth a blazing stream of sunlight from an outstretched hand, which pierces the rapidly denigrating ball of plasma surrounding the ettin, hitting it squarely in the chest.

Vahr looks to be seriously considering the cleric’s offer. Unfortunately, Pahg does not.

Kirrah: -68 hp ; panicked ; far away

Weiman and Caradeum! Varg, please let me know ettin or Inverted Giant.

Weiman will take advantage of the AoO opening and make his way to directly behind Brachus (for cover.) He then heals him a bit.

cmw @ Brachus: 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (3, 2) + 10 = 15

-Posted with Wayfinder

As Weiman notes, the Inverted Ogre and ettin are both out of AoOs this round.

Weiman moves behind Brachus and heals some of the cleric’s wounds.

Caradeum! Varg, please let me know ettin or Inverted Giant.

Concentration DC19: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28

Caradeum takes a steps west, then casts a spell defensively. Pointing east, he hurls a flurry of snowballs at the inverted monsters.

Rime flurry of snowballs, 30' cone, should be able to catch both. Can't edit map, atm

Flurry of Snowballs DC 16: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 4, 4) = 15 And entangled for a round, no save.
