The dragon unleashes his full fury upon Broccan and Edrukk on that distant shore!

Biting @ Broccan
1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21 Damage 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

Clawing twice @ Edrukk
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 Damage 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9 Damage 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Dragon reflex save 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

Minniwick is up!

Seeing his bolt miss it's target, Canvy impatiently shouts to Minniewick, "Go on then, another of them bombs, 'll do the trick. Unless you've got something that'll help me walk through the water to join Edrukk and Broccan. They look short of a bit of muscle."

I assume the reflex save was to extinguish the fire. Just want to point out that extinguishing the flames is a full-round action that requires a Reflex save. Just ignore the damage if it has something up his sleeve that lets him make the save without the FRA. Fire damage 1d6 ⇒ 6

I am going as fast as these old bones will let me. Incoming! ranged touch 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 Damage 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 2) + 4 = 11 Main target on fire (1d6) until extinguished (FRA+Ref save). Splash 10' radius 6 pts Ref DC 15 for 1/2

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Minniwick sets more of the dragon on fire.

Broccan gets in another hit!

anyone

Initiative order

MW keep rolling damage......

Erine is up!

Erine takes no action. Minniwick, are you including the penalty for the far range? Even with Far Shot, you must have exceeded at least two range increments.

I'm counting 93 points of damage to the dragon so far, but someone may want to double-check.

It looks like 84 to me, but I don't know what attacks hit and what attacks didn't, so KK is probably the best person to confirm it.

Have we positioned ourselves for that flank yet? Edrukk will continue taking 5' steps until he's opposite Broccan.

Attack 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Damage 3d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 1, 3) + 4 = 9

Note: Edrukk's AC is 18 thanks to Erine's ward.

I don't think that hits. I counted it up, too, but I don't know if the bit of damage we did on the shore was healed or if that should count, too. Counting everything, and only confirmed hits, I get 87. I'm not sure what his touch AC is, but I have a fair idea what his normal AC is.

So given the damage, does the dragon look hurt? or is it just scratched?

Erine takes no action. Minniwick, are you including the penalty for the far range? Even with Far Shot, you must have exceeded at least two range increments.

Nope. Never saw a range listed so I figured KK would subtract as needed. I have Bombers Eye up so that increase the RI to 30' and with Far Shot I only take a -1 if it is between 31 and 60 feet.

Aren't we 100 feet away?

OK first the dragon is in terrible shape, with deep gashes and bleeding heavily.

second the island was 100 feet away, but you circled around and found a spot where the island is about 60 feet away....(for ease of play say that the dragon is 60 feet away).....

Shouting from the shore, Canvy encourages his friends in their endeavors. "A few more blows men and you'll have this dragons scales for armor." he recalls the words from his previous existence, dedged from his memories from ... he's not quite sure.

Biting @ Broccan
1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26Damage 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Clawing twice @ Edrukk
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25 Damage 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9 Damage 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Minniwick/Broccan are up!

fire damage 1d6 ⇒ 1
Take that you nasty beast, Incoming! ranged touch 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22 Damage 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 1) + 4 = 11 Main target on fire (1d6) until extinguished (FRA+Ref save). Splash 10' radius 6 pts Ref DC 15 for 1/2

Minniwick kills the dragon!

And now Broccan and Edrukk are on the island with the dragons treasure alone!

Broccan cleans the blood off his sword and sheathes it. Using his helmet as a bucket, he douses the remaining flames before they spread.

"Lea's see if th's Ladyship's scroll is 'round 'ere somewhere. "

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25

Broccan spots what looks like a nest at the top of the hill with a few items sticking out here and there......

Canvy calls out "There you go guys, you're safe as houses now!!...Well done Minniewick, you're very accurate with those exploding vials. Must teach me sometime." He peers across, "So what can you see over there?"

Broccan heads up to the nest, and begins looking around for the scroll.

Canvy strips down and begins to swim across...

Erine blushes...

Canvy takes on a bit of water, and stops mid-way to sputter it out.

On the island.......
Scattered in tidy pile and stacks are 6,200 silver, 1,430 gold, two garnets, a black pearl, a wand, a dwarven waraxe, a large steel shield, and 1 potion of great extravagance sealed in a adamatium bottle, one scrollcase.

Erine actually seems oddly unaffected by Canvy's sudden nudity. She pulls out of her pockets a vial full of a clear substance and a bedroll, and sets them carefully down on the shore. She then procures a heavy bag of coins and nestles it in the cloth--after making sure Canvy's attention is elsewhere.
The gnome disrobes and wraps her arms around Goat's neck, and Goat wades into the water.
Goat's Swim check 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (18) + 0 = 18
Erine aiding: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (8) - 1 = 7
Aid check fails. Hopefully an 18 is good enough to see them to the island.
Let's get us some moneys! :D

Many thanks Canvy. If you have 10-15 years to spare I can teach you. He turns his back as Erine begins to disrobe. Looking at the wall as he speaks. I will just keep watch.

Edrukk will coup d'grace the dragon (just in case) before joining Broccan in the search.

Damage 6d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 3, 4, 4, 1, 6) + 8 = 29

"We need t' be movin' quickly, lad. M' size won' last much longer. 'course, ye c'n swim back, Ah s'pose."

Actually, I should have a couple of minutes more...

He casts Detect Magic and gathers those items that register an aura for further study.

"'at gurglin' sound 's th' 'alf-orc. If'n ye want t' claim somethin' ye best do 't 'fore 'e gets 'ere." This last is said with a low chuckle.

"Mebbe 'at be yer scroll, lad. Mind if'n Ah take a look 't 't 'fore we take 't t' yer Lady?"

"I can h-help with the items," Erine calls, adjusting her grip on her familiar. "Just g-give us a minute to come over th-there. Water's cold..."
I'm thinking we might want to camp on the island, and Erine will say as much when she arrives. It'll give us a chance to 'taxiderminate' the dragon (or choose not to) and remove any risk of wandering monsters.
Except for landsharks. >_>

If we are moving to the island, I will hustle over to shore and bring back Minniwick and the gear. Wandering monsters would love to take our stuff without risking our swords and spells. ;-)

Minniwick will go across with Edrukk, but he is not getting in the water. Can not stand the stuff after what, almost happened to Bubbles.

a black pearl, a wand, a dwarven waraxe, a large steel shield, and 1 potion of great extravagance sealed in a adamatium bottle, one scrollcase.

all these radiate magic... ;)

Erine and goat pass Canvy and get to the island first.

"'ere, lass. C'n ye tell what 'ese items be? Ah'll go get the bomber 'n yer gear."

Edrukk will leave the magic items with her and head across the water again. If Canvy is in distress, Edrukk will pull him to the island first, then return to the far shore to get the gnome and all of the abandoned gear. Might take a few trips.

Erine's eyes glow. "Zeit sorsilik."
She picks up the potion first.
Casting Detect Magic. Spellcraft check to identify the potion: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
The pearl: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
The wand: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25
The axe: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19
And the shield: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
I imagine Edrukk and Minniwick arrive sometime around then.
Erine gets dressed when her robes are brought to her. "I haven't e-examined the scroll...yet."

"Yer quick, lass. Lemme look 'n see 'at Ah see."

Aid another on the Spellcraft

Potion 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
Pearl 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
Wand 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Axe 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Shield 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Hey, clean sweep! +2 on all of them!

If you need an extra pair of eyes. What a wonderful potion bottle! Aid Another as well, if needed. Minniwick has +9 Spellcraft so it is a auto +2 on all

Okay, so that adds +4 to all the rolls.
Erine finally picks up the scroll case.
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13 (counting Minniwick's automatic +2)
Hahahahahahadangit.

The adamantium bottle is not magic, yet the liquid inside radiates strong magic, beyond anything you have previously experienced.

Two symbols are obvious in the markings of the potion one being a circle or infinity the other being a symbol of life.

Eventually Erines witch heritage comes into play and she recalls a hex called forced reincarnation and this seems to be a potion form or reincarnate.

Pearl of power 2nd level spell

Wand of CMW 30 charges 3d8+5 (charge)

+2 axe
+2 shield

Perception DC 15

Canvy get to bagging up all the gold and silver
6,200 silver, 1,430 gold

and then toting one bag looks back at the water.......

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Erine glares at the scroll case. "I've no idea what this thing does, and I'm not giving it up until it's identified. Minniwick?"
She holds up the wand. "This has some potent healing magic. Anybody injured?"
She sends down the wand and pockets the Pearl and the potion. Finally, she picks up the axe and shield. "These have some powerful magic on them. Better than anything else we have, I think. Does anybody know how to use it?"

Spellcraft aid 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8 Double dang it!

"C'n ye jus' read 't, lass? Ah don' unnerstand wizard-speak..."

Looking at the wand, Edrukk asks, "'o can use th' wand? Canvy, would ye be able t' use 't fer 'ealin'? 'r mebbe Ah should carry 't?"

Perception 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15 Just enough...

"Uh-oh, lads. 'n Erine. We 'ave company. Don' make plans fer 'at scroll, missy, if'n 'at's what we be needin' t' get outta 'is alive." The dwarf points upward at the spiders - and their mistress - descending from the ceiling.

Perception 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28

Erine, I am no good on my own. I have no way to see an items aura. Potions, I seem to have a knack with though. That one there is unique. Looking up I hope she is just here to talk.

Erine looks up and her eyes widen. She reaches into her robes and pulls out the Pearl and the quickening rod. "I d-don't have the spell prepared to r-read it. But it's cle-clearly potent. I'll try tomorrow, and I'm not giving it up until then if I can help it."
The gnome witch readies herself. Then a thought appears to occur to her. She places a hand on Edrukk's shoulder, renewing the ward.
Sadly, Erine only prepared Scare today, so if the Mysterious Definitely Non-Drider Lady has more than six hit dice, Erine's use will be pretty much nil (and the Pearl's use will be nil--at least for her). In that case, she'll be on CMW duty.

Canvy satisfied by the gold and silver, belatedly sees the interest shown in the magical items. Damn, if only I could have swum across faster... He looks at the items being held by Erine. "Perhaps I can look after those for you Erine, keep them safe til we get back to town. Probably worth a pretty penny?"

Seeing the wand in Edrukk's hand, his eyes open wide, "Hmm, healing you say, well that would be nice. It takes a lot of effort for me to use healing, unless it's pre-prepared." He holds his hand out expectantly.

The wand might be carried by Canvy, so the healing can come from 2 sources, rather than just Edrukk. Gives us more flexibility in battle, but I'll not argue if Edrukk carries it. Canvy will though.., but I expect you'd only let him have it if he gave an oath not to sell it and use it for everyone's good.

Erine glances at Canvy, looking annoyed. "I'll hold these, thanks. And I should carry the wand--you have a sword to manage. Not to mention that negative energy explosion you keep using."

The drider female uses the webs being spun by the other spiders to move herself towards Broccan....

"You have found the scroll and may now free me from this curse."

The webbing and manuevering is incredibly graceful to watch...

"You do know the floods are coming with the winter storms and Cauldron is not safe, the whole thing might flood if you do not return soon to stop it."

Erine

The lady eyes the fancy scroll case and holds out a hand.

Erine looks up at the woman. "Why aren't you wearing clothes?"
She pauses, then quickly elaborates. "Elves usually wear clothes. Even in your current state...why don't you wear clothes? And why have you stayed in the caves so long?"
Erine's left hand is in her components pouch.

Edrukk will pick up the waraxe and shield. Unless Broccan is interested in them, I don't think anyone else will utilize them. Right now, he's interested in the AC bump more than the axe.

Wait. Is Edrukk still enlarged?

Broccan could use the shield, but won't object to Edrukk having it. The rest of the items can go to whoever wants it. Broccan is in bad enough shape (from acid burns and dragon bites) that it doesn't take a heal check to know he's hurt. He doesn't bring it up, as his mind is otherwise occupied.

"Oi, M'Lady! We've kil'd th' dragon n' found yer scroll!"

Broccan reaches out to take the scroll from Erine.

"Come 'long, lass. Les' rid her Ladyship o' th' curse."

Erine frowns at Broccan. "Ugh..."
The gnome leaves the metamagic rod in her pouch and picks the wand up off the ground. She jabs Broccan with it.
Heals 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (7, 4) + 5 = 16 damage. Readied action is canceled.

If Broccan is interested in the shield, it's his. I would be taking a penalty to use the waraxe one-handed, anyway.

"Le's be 'ealin' ye , lad. Ah'm sure yer lady 'as been waitin' fer a bit, she won' mind if'n we get ye back t' fightin' shape. Nobody's goin' anywhere jus' yet."

Heal check 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

So, Brocco, how bad a shape are you in? I looked at your sheet, but I don't know if those hp are before or after Erine's healing poke.

She uses the scroll and casts the spell to break the enchantment true to her word she becomes once again a fully formed and totally naked dark skinned elf madien.

”See was not so difficult for you brave knight.”
Moves closer and puts a hug around your broad shoulders…..

Looks into Broccans eyes deeply while warm against him
”I wish you could tarry here with me my love, maybe after your adventures are done you can return to my arms for your full reward…..Gather your things I can send you to Cauldron, beware the triad.”

She laughs a bit .....”Clothing for me and yet one of your own stands here without!”
She steps clumsily away from Broccan trying to get used to two legs again and casts a powerful spell opening what at first looks like a large magical mirror on the island, but then through the shimmering surface you indeed see the Streets of Cauldron…..

”Step through and be returned home.”

Erine examines the mirror.
Spellcraft (with detect magic activated): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
