Idris and Ama make short work of the slug like creatures. It explodes in a disgusting wave of pus, covering both of them.

Fish and Axe make short work of the other slug and it also explodes in a disgusting wave of pus.

Fort save DC 12 for Axe, Fish, Idris and Ama.

Nagbur distributes temporary hit points to Axe and himself. He then tries to heal Axe but nothing happens. The spell seems to work fine and the health seems to be drawn from the earth but it doesn't have any effect on Axe.

Combat round 3:
- Almalik [PfE]
- Axe 40/58hp [DR 3 | +25 THP]
- Idris [+4 Str | +20 THP]
- Nagbur [+4 Str | +25 THP]
- Fish [+4 Str | +20 THP]
- Ama [+4 Str | +20 THP]
- Bookie + summons
- Knights
- Flying ugly goat

In bold may act.

So just to clarify, the THP took but the normal healing was blocked? Does Stinky get any sensation as to what might have gone wrong? If it matters, do note Collective Healing is a Supernatural ability, not a spell.

Also, I need to know how many hit die the slug had, please. Through Exquisite Agony, Stinky picks up some temporary power based on that value.

Almalik rushes forwards, casting one of his few remaining spells as a large flaming sphere comes into play. He looks at the bone golem for a moment before grimacing and deciding to go after the slugs instead, trusting the spell may work better on them.

Damage, Reflex DC 17 for half: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 1) = 10

Attacking red slug.

@GM: Axe was aiming at the bone golem, not the slug thing. Albeit Fish may have finished off the slug on his own, but I was hoping to get a bit out of the big bony guy! :)

Fort save: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12

Whew!

Fort: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

Yay!

fort: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

Whew!

@Nagbur The THP took normally, yes. The natural ability worked and you took health from the earth but Axe didn't heal. You have no clue as to what it might be. But if you look at the battlefield and my description you could decipher it. The slugs have 27hp.
@Axe Sorry! Misread that! The slug still lives.

Attack:
Almalik's fire seems to do the job and slowly cooks the slug.

Bookie & knights:
Bookie makes another portal appears on the battlefield and another slug moves out onto the stage. Both the knights remain motionless beside bookie.

Summons:
The yellow slug opens its mouth and a 15 foot cone of putrid gas towards Fish. The red slug does the same and engulfs Idris and Ama after taking a step back. DC 12 reflex save for half damage.

The golem being hurt by Axe tries to hit him again. Both of the attacks miss him as Axe dances aside easily.

Goatlike creature:
The flying ugly goat flies closer to the group and flies a little higher than before.

Combat round 4:
- Almalik [PfE]
- Axe 40/58hp [DR 3 | +25 THP]
- Idris [+4 Str | +20 THP] (14dmg)
- Nagbur [+4 Str | +25 THP]
- Fish [+4 Str | +20 THP] (8dmg)
- Ama [+4 Str | +20 THP] (14dmg)
- Bookie + summons
- Knights
- Flying ugly goat

In bold may act.

Suddenly remembering his wand, Almalik snaps a wand into his hand from his quiver, running over to Axe. He then taps Axe with the wand.

Protection from evil on Axe. +2 AC vs evil, and cannot be touched by a summoned creature.

Fish growls before swinging his great club again.

Melee: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 2 = 28
Damage: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12
Confirm: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 2 = 10

... if you look at the battlefield and my description you could decipher it.

Haha... you give me way too much credit! :o)

The slugs have 27hp.

Yipe! I didn't mean for you to reveal the actual HP, I know you don't like to share that. I only need to know the number of hit dice. Like for example a Giant Slug is listed as 12d8+48 so you would just say twelve. I know that's not the right number for these, of course. At 27HP I'd guess maybe three?

Careful! Nagbur urgently thinks at the rest of the crew. Heals no be working right!

Turning his attention to one of the new arrivals, Nagbur tries to pull it into his Collective.

He still has a slot open so Unwilling Participant again, on the red slug this time. DC 18 Will save or it gets sucked into the Collective.

Also, he's going to try drawing a hit point of healing from the earth and sending it to Axe again.

Reflex: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20
I take no damage, because I have evasion.

Ama dodges the gas completely and steps up to the red slug, which she attacks twice.

Cold Wood Nodachi, PA, Bolt Time: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 8 - 1 + 1 = 25 Damage, PA: 1d10 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 5 + 3 = 12
Cold Wood Nodachi, PA, Bolt Time: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 8 - 1 + 1 = 26 Damage, PA: 1d10 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 3 = 15
Confirm Crit: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 8 - 1 + 1 = 13 Damage, PA: 1d10 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 5 + 3 = 12

Axe tries to finish off bony so he'll leave us aloney.Using Rune again

PA Axe @ Boney: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30

Damage on hit: 3d6 + 10 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 4, 3) + 10 + 6 + 3 = 30

-Posted with Wayfinder

@Nagbur lol. The hit dice of the creature: 5. Read your text wrong :S But you already knew the health of the creature was below 30, the first attack that killed one ;)

Almalik casts protection from evil on Axe who swings and hits the golem, breaking some of the bones. Nagbur forces the red slug in the collective and tries to heal Axe again, which fails. The only thing the slug thinks is.
Attack... Attack... Attack...

Fish continues to batter at the slug, hitting it again. Ama makes two quick slices at the slug and cuts it open revealing gooey green slime inside. The slug bulges and explodes in a cloud of pus. Reflex save DC 12

Combat round 4:
- Almalik [PfE]
- Axe 40/58hp [DR 3 | +25 THP | PfE]
- Idris [+4 Str | +20 THP] (14dmg)
- Nagbur [+4 Str | +25 THP]
- Fish [+4 Str | +16 THP]
- Ama [+4 Str | +20 THP]
- Bookie + summons
- Knights
- Flying ugly goat

reflex: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25
reflex: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19

Idris stepped to the side and lashed out at the remaining slug by him and Ama, driving his fists deep into its plump body.

flurry: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
flurry: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Idris finishes off the last slug between him and Ama and prevents the goo from ending up on him by jumping aside in time.

Bookie"
Bookie raises his hands in the air and a large portal opens in front of him, another bone golem steps out. The bone golem slowly trudges forward and ends up next to Ama.

Slugs:
The slug north of Ama moves south and engulfs Ama and Idris in a cloud of putrid gas. The slug between Fish and Axe swings out with sharp claws at Fish, the creature being very slow it misses both attacks.
Ref save DC 12 for Ama and Idris

Bone Golem(s):
The bone golem standing next to Axe raises up a large boney fist and slams down. Axe easily evades both attacks.
PfE doesn't work against the golem. It is a summoned creature but not evil.

Ugly flying goat:
The creature in the air remains where he is, hovering whilst looking out over the battlefield.

Environment:
The fire keeps spreading rapidly and has now set the web on fire. The land is turning to ashes at a quick pace.

Around you:
A loud crash takes your eyes away from your own fight. Two rocks the size of small mountains just appeared out of nowhere on the other end of the clearing. The clearing itself has seen better times. A lot of fires have spread and parts of the forest surrounding you also have caught fire. A burning treant tries to swat away small indistinguishable creatures as large flaming rocks fly over the clearing towards the king, who in turn calls down bolts of lightning from the sky.

Combat round 5:
- Almalik [PfE]
- Axe 40/58hp [DR 3 | +25 THP | PfE]
- Idris [+4 Str | +13 THP] (-8dmg)

ref: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15
acrobatics: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (20) + 13 = 33

Idris dodged the cloud and rolled past the slug, coming up behind it. He launched a blow, hoping that he and Ama could finish it off quickly and turn to the bone golem.

attack, flank: 1d20 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 13 + 2 = 29
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Gah! Forgot my flaming sphere. Well, my problem.

Sphericide, Reflex 17 for half: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 3) = 10

Almalik sends his sphere up into the black slug while he rushes to empower the next group member. He then rushes over to Fish, enchanting the little kobold.

Fish and Axe now have protection from evil.

So I'm thinking we may just want to pulverize Bookie ASAP... or goat thing. I can reach one or the other. What say you all?

If anyone were close enough to Nagbur they would hear him laughing sadistically. But the wicked, sharp-toothed grin on his face -- as well as his stretching, as if suddenly infused with energy -- can be seen from a distance. He makes a fist and then points at Almalik.

It's not reflected on the map but, based on the text, both the red and yellow slugs are down. Which means Stinky just picked up 10TPP for 4 Rounds. Turning some of them around immediately and mainfesting Vigor +3PP Augment and +2PP to share with Almalik and Idris, both of whom now have 20THP for 6 minutes (Idris is only updated to 20, it doesn't stack).

Axe, I'm fine with you offing either. Or both. One of them might be interfering with our healing.

Reflex: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
No damage, because I have evasion.

Ama fully dodges the pus cloud from the exploding slug.

Reflex: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
Was this another save for half damage, or was it versus a special effect?

After avoiding at least some of the next gas cloud's effect, Ama attacks the slug between her and Idris.

Cold Wood Nodachi, PA, Bolt Time, Flanking: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 8 - 1 + 1 + 2 = 19 Damage, PA: 1d10 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 3 = 11
Cold Wood Nodachi, PA, Bolt Time, Flanking: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 8 - 1 + 1 + 2 = 23 Damage, PA: 1d10 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 3 = 15

That should do!

"Idris, wait for me to get into a flanking position before you attack the big one!"

Death explosion is an effect, the breath attack is damage.

Idris dodges the smoke and rolls behind the slug attacking him, he punches it quick and hard. Almalik slowly starts to roast the slug as Ama slices it down. Reflex saves for Idris and Ama again, DC 12.

Nagbur tops the health of Idris and Almalik with the energy from the now dead slugs.

Combat round 5:

reflex: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21

Once more Idris ducked beneath the spray of gore and other things, looking to the side to see how Axe is making out.

Reflex: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21

Ama fully dodges the explosion of pus.

"Nasty slug no die." Fish growls as he brings his club down on the slug a third time.

Melee: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 8 + 2 = 29
damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Idris and Ama both dodge the pus and gore spraying about. Fish slams down his club on the yellow slug and kills it, spraying more pus and gore everywhere.

Reflex save DC 12 for Axe, Almalik and Fish.

Combat round 5:

Reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18

Almalik yelps, leaping to the side as the slug explodes.

Nagbur peers around the bush, watching and trying to decide what the best next move would be.

Just checking in. :o)

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28

Axe tries to finish off the bone golem with another pair of swings!

Razing rune again

AXE!: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12
Damage on hit: 3d6 + 9 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (1, 2, 5) + 9 + 1 + 3 = 21
AXE!: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Damage on hit: 3d6 + 9 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (4, 1, 4) + 9 + 1 + 3 = 22

Nope.

Everyone dodges the the pus and gore flying around in the air. Axe manages a single hit on the bone golem, nearly setting the bones crashing to the ground.

Bookie keeps up his work and opens more portals again, setting more slug like creatures on the plain.

The first slug tries to hit Fish but fails, an invisible forcefield holding it at bay. The second one attacks Idris, both claws missing him. The first bone golem slams down on Axe again, the first slam hits hard and sets his ears ringing. The second attack misses. The second bone golem targets Idris but misses both his attacks.

The fire keeps spreading and setting fire to more of the web.

Combat round 6:

Fish hisses as he sees another slug appear. "This getting old," he says as he takes a step to the side of the slug. "Fish smash this one like the last one, the kobold says as he swings his club.

Melee: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23
Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

"We need to stop that summoner or we'll be here all day!" Idris called as he ducked under the blows of the bone golem. He struck out at the slug between himself and Ama, then pivoted to get out from between the two creatures.

flurry, flank: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 11 + 2 = 30
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
flurry, flank: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 11 + 2 = 30

attack2, flank: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 6 + 2 = 25
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Ama lets out a frustrated cry when more slugs appear. "forget about those for now! The big ones first!"

Acrobatics, to avoid AoAs: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 28

Ama circles the bone golem, trying to avoid attacks from it and the slug she moves away from. She ends up flanking the golem with Idris and swings her nodachi at it.

Cold Wood Nodachi, PA, Bolt Time, Flanking: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 8 - 1 + 1 + 2 = 21 Damage, PA: 1d10 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 3 = 14

Yes please, if bone golem goes down, I'll go after bookie :)

@Fish: Just to ask, are you only level 5? We should be level 6, so you should have 2 attacks.

5 levels Blood rager, 1 level Dragon disciple.

Nagbur rubs his hands together and laughs manically as he sees more of the slugs appear. "Feels muchly good when they die..." Deciding to try for more free power while it's available, he focuses on the one being approached by his friend Fish.

Manifesting Unwilling Participant on the yellow slug. DC 18 Will save or it gets sucked into the Collective. Also, going to try once again to draw a point of healing from the earth and send it to Axe. He figures whatever's blocking the healing might move or change...

Axe stands around idly, staring at the bone golem.
I'm asking for a faster pace in game and you only post OOC without anyone going for the bone golem... Next time your turn will be skipped.

Fish whacks the slug in the face, the creature giving off a grunt. Idris finishes off the slug with a few precise punches.
DC12 relfex save pls

Ama starts hitting away at the bone golem, doing some damage to the creature. Nagbur tries to pull the slug into the collective but fails this time.

Combat round 6:

Sorry for the reaction but I was fairly annoyed this morning. The pace is picking up, compliments, and that ooc comment annoyed me because it slows things down again. I hope to keep the pace up! I don't want to drive anyone away with stupid placed comments...

Sorry, was hoping either Ama or Almalik's hit could be the edge to finish off the wounded golem as bookie has been left alone too long! As hard as that thing hits, you can understand why I don't want to risk an AoO from it!

Axe's gives it his all to finish off the bone golem, then hopefully head towards the strange foe!

Using 4th round of Rune of Razing

PA Axe @ boney left: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30
Damage on hit: 3d6 + 9 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (3, 2, 4) + 9 + 1 + 3 = 22

"Guys, ignore the slugs!" Ama yells. "They're annoying, 'cause just pop back up again! Kill the big ones first, they're priorithingies!"

Shrugging at Ama's words, ALmalik sends his flaming sphere into the golem!

Flaming Sphere DC 17 for half: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 4) = 12

He then rushes to the other side of the fight, wand at the ready.

We are now going into phase 2!

Attack:
Axe brings down his axe on the bone golem next to him and finishes it. In a rush of bones and dust the giant creature collapses. He rushes forward towards the edge of the thick web Almalik cast earlier.

Almalik steers his fiery globe to the other bone golem, starting to slowly burn it.

Bookie:
Bookie casts a spell and the web spell vanishes out of thin air, he moves away from the fire to the other side of the field so as to not catch fire.

Knights:
The knights suddenly jump into motion. The red one flies through the air towards Axe and slams down a greatsword on him. His extra health from Nagbur vanishes and he feels the metal bite his skin. The second one also shoots forward with its greatsword, aimed at Axe. Axe sees the sword come and manages to dodge the attack just in time.

Summons:
The slug next to Fish tries another set of attacks but all of them have the same effect as before. The attack bounce off of the ward Almalik put up earlier. The other two remaining slugs attack Ama and Idris, their shard claws clawing for flesh. Both the slugs manage to hit a single time.

The bone golem keeps his focus on Ama and makes two more slams. Both attacks miss her, the last one she only manages to just dodge.

Goat:
The flying goat hovers lazilly towards Axe and stop in between Axe and Fish. The creatures starts beating his wings more strongly and a fetid cloud the color of rot is released into the air.

Environment:
The fire keeps spreading faster and faster. The wind stirs the ashes and sends up clouds of it.

Combat round 6:

In bold may act!

Idris tuned his attacks to the bone golem next to him. He had no idea what this thing's defenses might be, so he decided to just start with his fists. Unfortunately, dodging its blows and the slugs, he wasn't able to connect very well.

flurry: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
flurry: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
attack2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Flaming Sphere DC 17: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 1) = 6

Almalik quickly taps Idris with his wand, granting him protection from evil.

"AHHH THE GOAT MAN FARTED!" Fish shouts as he tries to keep from wrenching.

Fort: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19

"You insult Fish with fart?!?! Fish tear you apart! The stench causes Fish to fly into a rage. While he cannot reach the Goatman yet he races over to attack the knights with Axe.

Double move and now raging.

Ow., Axe thinks before the gas comes.

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24

On the map, the things aren't adjacent to me and nothing showed that they had reach, so I'm assuming I can move to bookie without provoking AoO's. If that is wrong though, I'll do something different, so spoiler options!

Huh... huh... huh... he said "fart"...

Nagbur frowns as he feels his mental "grab" for the slug slide off, and then groans as he sees some of his friends moving further away. With a growled curse in some guttural language, he runs forward to keep them in range, abandoning the cover of the bush.

A wash of reflected pain from Axe hits, and he reaches out mentally to support him.

Invoking Vigor with 4PP augment plus 1PP for Spirit of Many to share with Axe. Axe and Stinky now have 25 Temporary HP for 6 minutes.

The map is correct, they have reach. The sheet I a bit messy and wrote down only what the special ability did...

Idris punches at the bone golem, hitting it twice and dislodging some bones with his attacks. Moments later he receives protection from evil from Almalik. He himself keeps slowly burning the bones, turning them very brittle.

Fish rushes forward towards the knights in a fit of rage.
Placed you one back so you don't provoke. With a 5 foot step you can step in next turn without a loss!
Axe swings his axe and goes right through the armor the creature is wearing. To his shock he discovers that once through the armor there seems to be nothing behind it.

Lastly Nagbur fills himself and Axe with temporary health.

Combat round 6:
- Almalik [+20 THP | PfE]

No worries, GM, I'd figure I'd have to do some replacement of the avatar.

And thanks Stinks! Either this will be Axe's last hurrah or his glorious battle, but in either case, you're keeping him going!

@Stink/Ama: Do either of you have an ability to take PP from people? I have a few I am not using since Axe isn't smart enough to know what to do with them.

Hey, leave off that "last hurrah" stuff, you're not dead yet!

That said, you lot hurry up and finish off these baddies. With healing not working right (for some reason which eludes me) and Stinky running ever-lower on juice, we may be in hot water soon if he can't suck some more slugs dry.

Axe, there are a couple of Vitalist powers that drain PP from other people, but they start at 4th (magic) Level and aren't anything Stinky could use on Axe even if he could access them. Maybe Ama?

Oh... and you're welcome for the healing. I just wish I was better at it; "healer" isn't a common role for me and I'm still learning.
