..::I can probably get up on that rooftop and get that alchemist...::
Eaton thinks to himself as he frowns up at the man across the way. Eredin can have a face-full of frost, though! "*Aryt* ak' ornoposs!" He shouts, before wading into the crowd to get across adjacent to the building the alchemist hides upon...
Ranged Touch Attack vs Eredin Touch AC 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11 if hits [1d3] cold damage ; move action into the crowd Acrobatics 1d20 ⇒ 19
Round 1 / Initiative 22 Fort +0 / Ref +7 / Will +1 AC 18 / HP 17
Perception-1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Sin growls, before dashing towards the Dwarf, intent on driving his blade through his gullet.
Acrobatics-1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28
Twisting and sliding through the crowd, Sin arrives beside the Dwarf, as if from nowhere, before lashing out with his blade, sending the point darting towards the mans chest.
Edgar's blade slices into Eredin's side, drawing a thick line or red across his bare chest even as the other smile smiles darkly at Edgar, "Heh, I was hoping you'd show up." his taunt his cut short as a ball of frost slams into his face.
Sin lunges for the Dwarf, but he shifts his weight with a surprising speed, avoiding the attack, "Ye'll have to do better 'an that laddy." the Dwarf laughs, giving his whip a crack across the air.
After slamming Eredin with the spell, Eaton hauls himself up onto the roof, pulling himself over the ledge just in time to see a small globe of glass wrapped in chord and filled with a sloshing orange liquid that flies towards him.
the jar crashes at his feet and explodes in a gulf of flame that burns at Eaton's clothes and skin.
Once she shook off the shock of watching the guard kill himself and Eredin getting free, Phaedra would choose to follow after Eaton. After all, Sin and Edgar could most likely handle Eredin themselves, but Eaton would probably just get himself killed by rushing off alone.
If she manages to get within 30ft of the half-orc, Phaedra lets out an ear piercing scream of anger directed him for hurting Eaton.
Dazed and taking 2d6 ⇒ (5, 1) = 6 damage unless he makes a DC 16 Fort save, then no daze and half damage.
Saving Throw Fortitude partial (see text); Spell Resistance yes
You unleash a powerful scream, inaudible to all but a single target. The target is dazed for 1 round and takes 1d6 points of sonic damage per two caster levels (maximum 5d6). A successful save negates the daze effect and halves the damage.
Tellar moves after Sin, heading for the dwarf amongst the crush of people. His bum leg was already slowing him down and the panicking crowd didn't help.
Double moving towards the dwarf but with the failed Acrobatics check, I only move 20ft for the full round move.
Acrobatics check: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
The Dwarven fighter's axe swings out for Sin's chest, followed closely by the crack of a razor sharp whip that the young ninja narrowly avoids.
Phaedra feels her lungs fill with air and the compression of muscle as she bellows at the orcish alchemist. He reels back and a trickle of dark red blood dribbles from his ear. But he shakes his head as if coming up from under water, grins at Phaedra and howls to the air!
His sword in hand, Eredin holds the blade defensively in front of him, and reaches behind, "Managed to get into my sister's skirts yet? Has she even bothered learning your name yet?"
As he taunts his former companion Eredin reaches behind his back and into the waist of his pants, pulling out a small grasshopper's leg. He crushes it between his fingers, free hand moving in an arcane motion, his lips uttering a spell!
Seconds later he grins at Edgar, "Another time perhaps?" He springs up, jumping with an inhuman agility, onto the gallows frame and then up to the roof above!
Oh no! He's getting away! Round 2 begins with Edgar at the top of the board.
Eredin cast a spell, and then left Edgar's threat range, both provoking AoOs, unless he did something to prevent them (I assume the defensive swordplay is casting on the defensive, or some sort of magus class ability). I'm going to add an AoO in a spoiler in case Edgar gets one. If he hits him while he is casting, then he has to make a concentration check.
Edgar AoO:
Seeing the opening, Edgar takes a swing at the traitorous bastard, hoping to screw up his spell or prevent him from running.
Edgar turns on his heels to face Eredin's direction. [b]"What's the matter. Afraid to get bested by me, again? Edgae taunts in a hope to bait Eredin, if only for a moment. Edgar has no magic, but Eredin isn't going to get away that easily! Edgar takes of after him, jumping or climbing after him in whichever way he can.
Acrobatics 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28 (chasing after Eredin, -1 if a climb chack instead)
[ooc]Edgar's right that I missed the AoO's, and wrote nothing of five foot steps, so yeah Erefin'd going to get slammed. Update should be later today, moving provinces for a job I didn't plan on, things are (as always) hectic but I'm hoping to get an update in on the layover.
Eredin's Concentration1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9 - Fail Edgar's 2nd AoO (for leaving threatened square) 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17-hit- 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 This keeps him in melee range. Edgar's last attack is a miss.
[ooc]I debated not allowing the second AoO, as he did use an acrobatics to try and climb the gallows, but I figure that's not the same as avoiding being hit, as I didn't declare it. I'll be more clear with my mechanics in the future.
Edgar's blade cuts deep into Eredin's arm, drawing a deep line of red as the magus howls in pain, his spell lost.
"Damn bastard," he curses and leaps for the scaffolding of the gallows, but Edgar's sword lances out once more, slicing him and keeping him firmly on the ground. The elder Valdemar lands in a crouched stance, growling in frustration
Round 2 / Initiative 22 Fort +0 / Ref +7 / Will +1 AC 18 / HP 17
Perception-1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Grinning behind his mask, Sin relaxes back in to his stance, raising one hand towards the Dwarf and gesturing rudely, before dashing forward. Slipping forward lithely, Sin lashes out, sending his blade darting towards the fighters throat.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I thought there were two instances where Eredin could have provoked AoOs, Edgar however can only take one of these. He does not have the Combat Reflexes feat yet. Sorry about that. '-_-
My mistake, scene is edited below, and the dmg to Eredin actually remains the same.
EDIT:"Damn bastard," he curses and leaps for the scaffolding of the gallows, hauling himself up and then leaping for the nearby rooftop.
Edgar's dagger lances out through the air, slicing into Eredin by the shoulder and sending him clattering against the shingles. The magus lets out a howl of pain but continues to run for his escape.
Sinder's blade lances out and slides deftly across the dwarf's throat, drawing a thick line of blood that causes his oponent to drop his whip and clasp at the wound trying to staunch the blood... But somehow he doesn't fall, and in fact looks even angrier than before!
Where did Sin's second D6 of dmg come from? I don't thinkyou should have sneak atk dmg in a straight up melee fight?
The Half-Orc grins at Phaedra and Eaton, gnashing his teeth and cackling, he pulls out a vial of a dark green substance, pops the cork and downs the tube in one gulp!
DM rolls:
Fighter Atk1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10miss
The Dwarf, eyes burning with rage at Sinders, gives his axe a wild swing that the ninja easily dodges.
After slamming Eredin with the spell, Eaton hauls himself up onto the roof, pulling himself over the ledge just in time to see a small globe of glass wrapped in cord and filled with a sloshing orange liquid that flies towards him. The jar crashes at his feet and explodes in a gulf of flame that burns at Eaton's clothes and skin.
Ow ow ow ow!
::Ow ow ow ow!:: "Ow ow ow ow!" Eaton chirps, dancing away from the licking flames that leave his elegant funerary garb smoking and singed.

"Potions to fortify yourself? You're going to need it, half-breed. And two can play at that game!" The gutteral syllables of an arcane abjuration well up in Eaton's throat, and his left hand moves in a quick, jerking rhythm, fingers craned into awkward positions to bend the magical energy into shape. The scent of ozone wafts up on the rooftop and the hair stands on the back of his neck, eyes flashing with lightning as the magic takes form around him in a faint, bruise-purple halo, just barely visible in the sunlit air. Still hazed with smoke from that dastardly alchemical fireball, Starse draws his scimitar and closes quickly, getting up close to harry the mad bomber even as that halloween charge of black and orange warps the air around his blade and infuses it with lethal energy.

Here is Edgar. I noticed a problem with the account saying that my name was already choosen as well, but it made the account, it just won't let me change the profile pic.
Any recommendations on a light martial weapon Proficiency I should take? Having trouble deciding.
Hiiiiii... I'm Purplefixer, your local Lawful Evil Rules Vampire. Ask me some questions, and I may or may not tell you lies, at my discression, for anywhere up to 200$ an hour, pro-rated.

I'm a pretty big comic nerd, you'd need to be a lot more vague to slip one past me, :p
On a much less cool note, I planned on starting today because it's my day off, lots of time to brainstorm the opener... I just got called in. So, I MAY be able to get our opening up tonight, but more likely it'll be tomorrow.
There we are! All included. Fear the mighty spell-power of my Acid Splash!
I'll be waiting with baited breath.
And without tiny shards of metal threatening to kill me by burrowing into my heart in any way. >.>
Yes I want a living suit of armor. No it doesn't need to be painted red and gold. Yes I want to fly and shoot beams out of my hands. The similarities end there! >.> Mostly.
It's an homage! I read the class and went... "Hngh. I could totally do Iron Man if I could find a way to make the armor fl... Oh look, Hexcrafter! Witches can fly as a spell-like ability!"
How could I not? This isn't nearly as bad as my invulnerable Aasimar Monk who shot lazers from his eyes...
Now On Deck: Shield Specialist Fighter with throwing and returning on his shield. Who will in no way be a captain in the Andoran military. Probably.
And I'm not the one who came up with an Alchemist archetype that turns your character giant, purple, and angry! GNOME SMASH!
Because gamers are nerds, and we love to sneak our other hobbies into our gaming. LN Half-Elf Monk. ... Spock much? If at any point the half-elf says 'fascinating' send him to the corner.
Even without the Iron Man reference, the concept sounds like a -blast- to play. Wearable Constructs? Immunity to magic? Shooting Scorching Rays? With secondary BAB? Flying at will (or near enough by 7th level)?! Sign me up!
I have plenty of time, but on that back burner needs to go thoughts for what I'm going to call the construct, if/when I am able to make it. Certainly can't go with Jarvis. ;p
I'm really eager to start the RP and see where it goes, since my combat-inept character with acid splash can basically kill rats if I make the spell-failure chance (assuming manacles) and that's all at the moment. I'm seriously considering dropping my Int by 1 and raising my dex and str by one each... O.o I'd like to live to see 4th level. But I conceptually need SO many skill points. I didn't get to take half the knowledges I wanted, and no spellcraft. I'll be playing catch-up if I can get him to survive to three. But that's part of the fun of first level characters. So much to look forward to, so much to gain, so far to go.
Just cross your fingers no one is knocked overboard trying to tackle a flat-footed half-blind pirate! That happens at first level. Also, people kill things with doors.
/me vibrates impatiently in the hopes of being beaten and hurled into the hold like a sack of very valuable grain...
Pirate Leader: "Why should we believe you when you say you're a nobleman?"
Eaton: "Because... unlike SOME player characters, *I* spent a first level feat on it."
All: "OOOOOOOOH!"

What is this 'senility' of which you speak? Everyone knows that in Pathfinder, old men have sharper vision and hearing, crisper memory, get confused less often, and speak more clearly, and with greater force, than young men! It's how you can tell you're getting closer to dying of old age!

While I haven't worked out every detail of how things happened (Example: Fort Rannick was reclaimed but then pretty much forgotten - you know, like the adventure does itself,) assume that all three of the original "varisian" trilogy have happened. The "Heroes" of the first two APs will be the iconics featured in the books (So for RotRL it'd be Mereisiel, Valeros, Harsk, Seoni and Ezren.) Not sure about the third because I'm running out of Iconics, :p
Sinders the resident Ninja checking in. I'm so damn good I lost MYSELF for a day! Oh yeah.... -Slicks back hair, before tripping on a tiny stone- lol Ello all!
In our campaign, with the death of Ileosa, we animated three of the former lords of Korvosa as Juju Zombies and set them up with disguise/gentle repose amulets to rule the country after Ileosa's death. I'm aware MOST groups would not have had a highly charismatic necromancer on staff and wouldn't have allowed such an incredibly heinous trick. :D
Out of curiosity, who's in charge of Korvosa now? In case Eaton has to spout off about some noble trivia or current event.
Heh! I keep getting a weird feeling from Sinders. When I do any sort of dialogue for him, inner or outer, he reads like a tired old cop who is always "one day from retirement!". Heh! It is entertaining as hell, well for me anyway! :)
Sorry man... what terrible luck. Hope that doesn't continue to pass around the circle. I was hoping to provoke him into climbing down here with us! He looks pretty stewpid.
Well you know what they say, go big or go home! Heh! It is okay. I am doing something atleast, that is all Sin is about, participating! :) And by doing something, I mean opening myself up to an Octo Gobo spear in the ribs! D'oh! :(
It's like he's trying to be just a little pompous and uncaring, as if he was raised in his own little world where he gets to make all the rules and everyone wants to be near him. ;p

Alrighty, you can post out of order, but I will be writing the results to the order given, so if two people attack the same enemy, the higher initiative takes priority.
ACs and HP for them are posted so you can determine the outcomes of your rolls without needing to wait for me.

I find myself often posting lots of "if" and "if not" statements in pbp. having a back up actions always seems to be a good idea, especially it you are a magic user.

Hey guys,
Today's going to be delayed, for two reasons.
First of all, as I've mentioned before I have a big move coming up, and need to sort and pack.
Secondly, I'm trying to find some new (to me) ways of making my games here run more smoothly, and I'm finally sitting down and figuring out how to use MapTools, so I can have some quick and easy maps for you guys for encounters.
On that note, could everyone put up an email for me, so I can make a google docs (something else I've never used) account for us to upload these maps. thanks!
