Rappan Athuk Old School

Game Master brvheart

Wdrozgrúk will cast Detect Magic on the sarcophagus while Elathras is trying to open it.

The two candelabras detect as magic. The walls all detect as magic.

"Hang on, everyone! Better figure out what kind of magic we have here first. We've already had enough surprises today."

Wdrozgrúk will concentrate on the candelabras and then the walls to try and figure out what kind of magic we're dealing with:

spellcraft (on candelabras): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17

spellcraft (on the walls): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

It is magic, you can't even determine the school on those rolls, sorry.

"Hmm, maybe we should seek another way."

You noticed the well up to the north!

Elathras shrugs his shoulders and jams the crowbar under the lid of the coffin and gives a grunt. and another,and another and finally he pops the lid off of the sarcophagus and looks inside.

str: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 2 = 12
str: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 4 + 2 = 18
str: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 2 = 13
str: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 4 + 2 = 23

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28

short sword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23 damage: 1d6 + 1d3 ⇒ (1) + (2) = 3 1d3 is STR

initiative: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

Out of the coffin pops a black skeleton. Roll initiative!

Everyone roll a Will Save DC 15 vs Frightful Presence as the door slams shut.

"OW! Elathras drops his crowbar and stumbles back from the coffin.

init: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14

Will: 1d20 + 7 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 7 + 5 = 19
DO NOT GO DOWN THE WELL! My runour!

Order I was told was init then will save
INIT/WILL Save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 121d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21

Init. 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Will save 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 +2 on saves versus spells, poison and SLA | +2 on saves against charm, compulsion, and emotion effects

Kaz moves to Beltin and casts Bull's Strength on the warrior. "I think you are going to need to be even stronger, Beltin!"

I get almost no advantage front bull's strength. Cats grace is a different story.

I get almost no advantage front bull's strength. Cats grace is a different story.

I was going to give it to Ela, but since he is running in the other direction, I got caught unawares. Would the spell help Gruk?

initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Will: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Just waiting on Irenicus as I need his Will Save in addition to initiative. The good news is so far only Elathras has failed this time. Kaz, you can roll a knowledge religion.

Know. Religion 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

init Irenicus: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

init Mitleid: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Initiative Order Round One
Kaztor
Black Skeleton
Belton
Irenicus I still need a Will Save
Gruk
Mitleid
Elathras cowering in the corner

The skeleton hops down out of the sarcophagus and attacks Mitleid
short sword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1 and damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1 STR

"This is an intelligent undead. Use a bludgeoning weapon against it. It needs to be good aligned to do full damage.". Kaz thinks about things and casts Align Weapon (Good) on his hammer.

Wdrozgrúk moves 'south' 5 ft to get a clear shot at the skeleton with Disrupt Undead

disrupt undead: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 161d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
(no save, point blank shot)

I know it's not much, but it's about all I can do against this one for now.

more than Elathras is doing!

Elathras, hides in the corner, wetting himself, screaming, KEEP IT AWAY! GRUK!

Moving a step back and drawing blunt arrows Mitleid starts shooting.
FLDA: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 171d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
FLDA: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 201d8 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
FLDAKIP: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 181d8 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Mitleid hits one for a point. Waiting on Beltin and Irenicus.

will: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Irenicus backs up and begins trying to open the door to leave.

Joining Elathras in the corner....

Beltin grabs his last tangle foot bag and lets fly at skeleton.
touch: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22
On phone or I'd link tanglefoot bag

reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24 duration: 2d4 ⇒ (1, 3) = 4 rounds

It saves, but is entangled.

Initiative Order Round Two
Kaztor
Black Skeleton
Belton
Irenicus cowers in the corner
Gruk
Mitleid
Elathras cowering in the corner

Kaz moves up to the undead and starts swinging his good aligned hammer.

Attack 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Damage 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

If I can't get to the Skelton in 20', I'll just double move.

You were 10' away.

Elathras cowering in the corner

Ekathras, hiding in the corner, pants oddly wet, chicken-legs shaking, screaming for his mommy "Save me Gruk!" Errr, screaming for Gruk...

The black skeleton attacks Mitleid with both short swords
short sword: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 10 - 2 = 13 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1 plus damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2 STR
short sword: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 10 - 2 = 21 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5 plus damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2 STR

Wdrozgrúk will fire Disrupt Undead again at the black skeleton.

disrupt undead: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 91d6 + 0 ⇒ (5) + 0 = 5
(no save)

And groans inwardly at both his poor aim and Elalthras' screaming fit.

Beltin and Mitleid are up again. These rounds are going a lot faster with just four of you involved.

Beltin draws and throws a holy water vial when Mitleid dodges away.
touch/holy damage: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 102d4 ⇒ (3, 1) = 4
Missing the skeleton, he gets him a little splashed.
2 splash damage

A direct hit by a flask of holy water deals 2d4 points of damage to an undead creature or an evil outsider. Each such creature within 5 feet of the point where the flask hits takes 1 point of damage from the splash.

Ok, readjusting the attack on Mitleid. Since it is entangled it cannot take a 5' step and can only take one attack so he is not hit. Also, Kaz gets and AOO.

Tumbling away Mitleid takes a new position
Acro: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
"Good aligned, what a mess!"
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 151d8 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Kaz AOO 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14

Damage 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

You can take your regular turn now Kaz

Attack 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

Damage 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Possible crit 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21

Damage 2d8 + 4 ⇒ (8, 8) + 4 = 20

And that's good and bludgeoning!

Good aligned, and good timing!

It felt that, so much you got his attention! He attacks Kaz twice.

shortsword: 1d20 + 10 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 10 - 2 - 2 = 9 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5 damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2 STR
shortsword: 1d20 + 10 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 10 - 2 - 2 = 20 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5 damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1 STR

Beltin draws his last holy water vial and heaves it at the skeleton. His aim is off again. At least he hit with the important tanglefoot bag.

touch: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 132d4 ⇒ (1, 3) = 4
1 splash

Wdrozgrúk tries Disrupt Undead on the black skeleton again
