Round 1, Power Attack, Smite Evil (AC: 24)

Malcolm steps forward to BZ-46 and lays into the troll.

BS Att1: 1d20 + 13 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 13 + 2 - 2 = 19
BS Dam1: 1d10 + 5 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 5 + 7 + 4 = 26

BS Att1: 1d20 + 8 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 2 - 2 = 9
BS Dam1: 1d10 + 5 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 5 + 7 + 4 = 26

Roll your sex check to see if you dropped your weapon, malcolm.

The first attack hit

Really? My SEX check...lol!

Dex: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Well, that certainly is not going to get it done!

Grung charges the north one

Croaker: 1d20 + 13 - 3 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 13 - 3 + 2 = 21 for 1d10 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 4 = 12 +1 vs Monstrous Humanoid of Magical crest

Pretty sure it is one ofthose

Don't worry, Malcolm, it happens to every man sometimes ...

LOL...yeah...right.

Maybe.. you should work on your.. technique.

Malcolm's sex fell off...

Grung moves forward hitting his target but not without taking an AOO from the Trolls reach,

claw: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 19;damage: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

Grung although the blow missed you do realize these are no ordinary trolls, or river trolls, these beasts are intelligent, strong, and cunning.

Feli - haste, grease

Kalim is up.

I'm going to give Kalim a little more time to post an action before I DMPC him. This is a potentially deadly encounter - more so than most - so I'll DMPC him before moving onto the next round especially since the Trolls are at the top of the round.

Sorry, my parents' home town has no reception. Kalim will fireball!.fireball: 7d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 2, 4, 3, 4, 3) = 21

Kalim sees the troll that Grung is engaged in, then he steps back 5 ft out of it's reach, and tosses a fireball at it's side engulfing the area but not his ally.

Map with fireball spread

reflex save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

With a great roar the troll cries out in blistering pain. Charred flesh singes the air.

RD 2 after Zoolbing begins swimming

Grung you see some of the wounds that you caused the troll to suffer have begun to stitch up on their own.

Stupid thing s healing!!

Grung decides he doesn't care why it is healing, instead he tightens his grip and tries to chop the thing down like it is a tree.

Croaker: 1d20 + 13 - 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 13 - 2 + 1 + 1 = 31 for 1d10 + 7 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 4 + 1 = 16

Des hits with 2 of his three attacks. How did you make the last attack at the same att bonus of 11 shouldn't it be 6?

NEVERMIND I forgot you were hasted.

Malcolm sends a wash of healing power from Abadar over his body as he bends and picks up his weapon.

Lay on Hands: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 2) = 8

Kalim is up.

One thing that is obvious all these trolls are tactical and not just brutes. They strike, get hit, then move.

As Desmond tries to tumble behind the river troll a large paw scratches a the rogue,

claw: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (10) + 15 = 25;damage: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

Slicing flesh from desmond's body.

RD 2: Garang

The very fast troll then withdrawals (BT/BU 49/50 and swims underwater.

The land based threats are now gone and all three river trolls are submerged.

"Fighting separately won't work. We need to focus on one of these guys, lock him down, and tear him up!"

Karnog moves to the center of the group and channels energy to heal the party. Everyone writhing 30' gets 4d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 6, 5) = 13 healing

The trolls have submerged in the dark water their inky blood blending into the river water. The cavern has a a few drips, splashes, and creaks within but there is no sign of the trolls.

How far onto the island did you pull the boat? What are you doing?

i pulled it completely on, so the stern would be about 3 feet from the water

Well now what?

the island is quite large and it has two large 70 foot round columns along with many underground plants and kalim has identified some edible and hallucinogenic fungi that he is quietly stuffing in his handy haversack.

Thanks, Karnog. Let's investigate the columns once again, and then we can move on.

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

The column nearest is 70 feet around and as high as you can see. the ground is trampled and there are two divergent paths that have been trampled by large trolls. Once extends toward the other column whil the other goes to a small hillock.

Karnog draws a wand and touches Grungsdi.

2d8 + 3 ⇒ (2, 3) + 3 = 8 CMW

Which what are you heading?

Thanks...I guess out friends aren't coming back to play...

He follows.

"I am glad."

Thanks...I guess out friends aren't coming back to play...

He follows.

Oh, they are coming back to hound you throughout the dungeon. At least that is how they are suppose to act.

So which path?

I'm waiting on you all to give me a path that you are heading down.

The hilloc

Come, let's check out the hillock, first.

Malcolm heads down the appropriate path with his cap of light illuminating the way, he scans the area on advance.

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

the party trudges off towards the hillock.

Near the Hillock is a large pile of gold ore...it's a massive pile of gold ore. appraise roll. dwarves add +2

Aurora sees there are a few links to what looks like a buried chain that extends towards the water. The rest of the party does not notice it until it is pointed out to you.

"Look, look, this chain! Maybe it binds someone to the island. This is ... interesting.
