Have it prepared. It's my first action once we confirm the hydra's location. Only lasts 90 min divided amongst all recipients. Also have protection from energy prepared, 1 target, 118 hp of fire immunity, lasts 90 min.

Des oepns the door (move action) and then holds off to let Grung move through the doorway. This cave contains the bloodied remains of the unfortunate goblins who came to investigate the strange sounds heard. The hydra devoured its victims once it slew them, but there are a few fingers, toes, eyeballs, teeth, and bits of armor scattered about. The double doors at the far end of the cavern are ajar.

Make a Perception 15

You can see scorched marks on the walls.

For now Desmond moves forward, gently touching the cavern wall feeling his way towards the door.

Felic Only:

You also know something about needing to sunder heads by severing them to kill the creature. It regrows more heads and heals fast.

Sundering and severing head:

To sever a head, an opponent must make a sunder attempt with a slashing weapon targeting a head. A head is considered a separate weapon with hardness 0 and hit points equal to the hydra's HD. To sever a head, an opponent must inflict enough damage to reduce the head's hit points to 0 or less.

Cutting hydra heads off, yeah I'll freaking pass on that one. I've seen Hercules. Do we know if there's any way to keep it from regenerating extra heads?

Edit: Pyrohydra, s**!. That means you can't fireball it Kalim.

Yeah, let's specifically aim not to cut off heads than. We'll likely already be outnumbered, let's not make it worse.

As you kick in the door you realize why Desmond could not see the hydra is by the door and as side alcove. the Huge beast has 12 heads and with it's reach it has excellent coverage of the door. Then all hell breaks out..

Evil GM

RD 2: Pyro Hydra

The creature steps forward five feet and uses its reach and breath weapons.

Six heads release bouts of flame that catch Grung and Desmond

H1: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 1) = 4
H2: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 2) = 10
H3: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 2) = 10
H4: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 6) = 12
H5: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 3) = 9
H6: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 5) = 12

Reflex 21 half damage.

Does anyone know off hand if the damage resist energy is against each individual head or does all the damage get added then the resist energy apply? difference is zero damage vs potential 37 HP of damage.

GM:
Rds recharge: 1d4 ⇒ 4

The remaining six heads bite at Grung.

H7, bite: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16;damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
H8, bite: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (7) + 15 = 22;damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Since each one is an individual blast of fire, resist energy should apply to each one seperately. There is a thread about it here.

Desmond jumps as the flame surrounds him, but Karnog's protective magic makes it so not a single burn is left on him. Might have to give a prayer to Torag after this. He takes a deep breath, touching his shirt. Now or never, come on Desmond, you can do this! Desmond sprints in at an alarmingly fast rate, slipping invisible through the hydra's legs, then releases a complete barrage of cuts at it.

That's awesome Feli! Where is the video from?

Crunch:
Currently effected by resist energy and inspire courage. Also using combat expertise to fight defensively, giving a -2 to hit and a +2 to AC. Current AC is 27

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (16) + 22 = 38 To move through the hydra square to get to R62. I'm not sure if I need this roll since I'm invisible, but if I don't we can always just ignore it.

This causes a nimbus of light to emanate from the warrior of the holy light in a 30-foot radius.

Your call on the resistance, GM. I've always run hydras as separate blasts so as to allow more flexibility. I've heard arguments for both sides, though.

"Stand firm, strike true! Kill the beast quickly!"
Evil GM

Remember only one of the two double doors is open and Grung is standing there and he just took a 5 ft step, then Malcolm came up to look in the door also. this along with where the hydra is located is making it hard to view without a perception check DC 17.

Malcolm I don't think the ring of fire resistance and Karnog's spell stacks.

Grung steps up five feet to get in attacking rang and hits it hard.

Malcolm moves up and casts his spell.

Kalim moves to try to get an angle to see the creature. (make a perception check.)

Meath'd moves forward.

Updated RD 2 Map

Kalim make your perception check, karnog and felic still have actions.
