Pathfinder Oriental Adventures: Spring and Autumn

Game Master Elton

"Rape the women! take the virginity of the 12 year olds! Take their stuff!" says the leader. The hobgoblins are advancing, one of them trying to summon an oni.

Not sure if we are to react to this or not. Don't know if we are close or what the layout it like. Things would move along better and faster if you would include this type of information when you post GM

You are supposed to react.

---------------------------

The summoning complete, an ogre then takes the field. His aura glowing red and visible to not everyone but An Kai Hong. The ogre, a blue skinned Ogre Mage, is wielding a club with studded spikes all around it.

Oh, right.

Roll initiative, please. :)

Not sure how we're supposed to react. Do we roll initiative. Did they get a surprise round?

You roll initiative. :)

I'm sorry about this. I'm writing up a piece on Mathemagicians for Pathways. :)

DM should roll init for the party in order to speed up combat ;)

Since we had some pre buff time here is the list: Bob (Alter Self: +2 Str / Shield of Faith / Divine Favor. For An Kai: Enlarge Person

Init: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Init: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

That's why we need some idea of distance if not using maps. Summoning is a full round action that I would have reacted to by throwing a star. So can we retcon and take range attacks or no?

Init: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Well doesn't matter with that poor of a roll

Appraise: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15

An ogre mage. This is a dangerous foe. COME AT ME BEAST. i AM YOUR OPPONENT. i HAVE SLAIN YOUR KIN. YOU ARE THE NEXT TO FALL TO AN KAI HONG.

An lowers his blade readying to receive the charg from the creature.

Well, he does charge at you. Sorry. :)

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14 Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

who's turn is it now dm ?

Qian looks at the aggressor and shakes his head at the leader's comments.

"I guess we took too long to get into position? And definitely, this evil needs to be put to rest after comments like that by the leader."

Any chance for a battle map?

Init: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Wow, we all rolled lousy Inits!

So did the ogre mage get hit for 46 damage? What are the inits of the rest of the enemies? Do we go now?

The inits for the Hobgoblins are 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20

I can't believe they rolled that.

I can't believe they rolled that.

I can, the dice conspire against the players ... ;-)

Please start the attack so we can attack or gurgle blood ... :-)

Here we go!

The hobgoblins advance. One attacks Qianbei 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

Short sword -- 1d6 ⇒ 5

Critical check 1d20 ⇒ 19

Still not sure if the ogre mage got hit for massive damage or not

Yeah, they did.

not sure are we up should we go again?

No idea. I guess I'll do something

Stricia attacks a hobgoblin. Probably the one that attacked Qianbei with a flurry

flurry: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 161d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 71d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 201d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

The first attack is a Stunning fist attempt Fort DC 13.

Round 1

Chen will attack the biggest bandit while fighting defensively

Bastard Sword: 1d20 + 5 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 5 + 2 - 4 = 211d10 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 5 + 2 = 11

Current AC 25

(Sorry guys, I've been having a brush with the REAL truth).

Okay, next please. (consider this a bump)

For that matter, Qian-bei, it's your turn! :)

Here we go!

The hobgoblins advance. One attacks Qianbei 1d20+1 (rolled 21)

Short sword -- 1d6 (rolled a 5)

Critical check 1d20 (rolled a 19) - my AC is 16

Am I still conscious, you did not roll double damage after confirming the critical hit?

1d6 ⇒ 3 - damage.

1d6 - damage.

You are still conscious.

Qianbei moves back off the short swords grimacing in pain, then attacks with fury with his fist and sibat, kiai'ing on his second stirke...

ATK1: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18
DAM: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
ATK2: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
DAM: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Kiai! ...

And keeps pounding and stabbing the hobgoblin with kiais unless it goes down, then he takes a step back to assess the battle field, and shouting another kiai to help mitigate the short sword's nasty wound.

Round 1

Chen will attack the biggest bandit while fighting defensively

Current AC 25

I think you killed him. Hmm, Qianbei, I wish you tripped him. Stunning attack save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

stricia, you stunned the hobgoblin. :)

An Kai Hong, it's your move! :)

Hmm, Qianbei, I wish you tripped him. Stunning attack save: 1d20+2

Hmm, an AoO, no thank you unless you want to give me a free feat :)

Next level, if I live? ... lol

Is the large Oni still up?

Good that i killed my target but there are still many bandit currently locked in combat with us :)

Yes, the ogre mage took quite a beating. :)

So thats yes its still up? I'm so confused.

I have no idea whats going on so here is an attack roll and damage.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Damage: 3d8 + 9 ⇒ (6, 6, 2) + 9 = 23

Yes. it's still up. Sorry for confusing you, I'm finalizing an assignment this month for Rite Publishing. :) So, this fight is going to take a little slower, I apologize for that.

---------------------------------

You miss and bust a rock apart. The ogre mage finally sits down, in a daze. It's unable to attack in the next round.

so who's turn is it? and how many enemy left?

Lets reroll initiative. :)

Hobgoblins. -- 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

An-Kai Hong - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

Qianbei -- 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19

Stricia -- 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Bob -- 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

1st -- Qianbei
2nd -- An-Kai Hong
3rd -- Bob
4th -- Stricia
5th -- Hobgoblins.

Bob, you're up! :)

There are 16 hobgoblins left, and one Ogre Mage!

Round 3 (i think)

Chen will again draw in his inner reserves while fighting defensively

Destructive, Ferocious strike at the nearest opponent.

Bastard Sword: 1d20 + 4 - 4 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 4 - 4 + 2 + 1 = 201d10 + 4 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 12

Courage my friends don't let them surround you or we all die he shouts pretending to be afraid for his life in order to keep up the Charade

Current AC25

Round 2. :)

you managed to stab through one with a fatal blow.

Stricia.

Stricia keeps attacking the hobgoblin she stunned.

flurry: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 131d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 71d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 211d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

not quite a critical hit. Did you get critical focus?

No Critical Focus. Not really worth going crit fishing with an unarmed monk

Right, well, you gave him quite a pounding.

The hobgoblins moved in to attack An-Hai Kong! 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

So out turn again i believe DM ?
