Rise of the Runelords

Game Master Upaynao

Andrezi takes aim at the goblin screaching in the back of the room and fires a bolt. Following the shot, he reloads the weapon.

Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 1

Reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Volkar tosses his bomb through the air, maintaining his invisibility as the cask shatters on the flagstones and splashes through the area. The Warchanter tries to dodge out of the way, but is caught in the corner!

Daelric fires his crossbow across the room at her while she is distracted, just barely managing to score a line across her upper arm.

Seeing that she has become the target, the warchanter ends her song abruptly and focuses on the party. She pulls a wand from her belt and suddenly a curtain drops from the ceiling, obscuring the throne from the rest of the room.

Forgot Kiera is out of town! If you did not want to use this spell, I understand and will allow a retcon.

Kiera mutters a few words while pulling a dart from a pouch. She tosses the dart at Ripnugget, and it speeds unerringly into the goblins flesh. He lets out a scream as the acid begins to burn into him.

Ripnugget keeps his seat and his head despite the burning in his arm and the wounds this dastardly dwarf keeps trying to inflict. With a battle cry, he turns around and charges up the wall, striking out at Daelric as he passes once more. They are now 10' high, clinging to the wall
Ride By: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
Luckily, the dwarf seems to be almost untouchable!

Realising that the cheiftain is now out of my reach, I move up to the Warchanter and swing my axe at her.

War-Axe Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Daelric: she is behind an illusionary curtain. Since moving through it counts as interacting with it, can you give me a will save please? Also, the goblin you are standing next to is up the pole. The warchanter is behind the throne.

-Posted with Wayfinder

I can't use the maps when on my phone, so was going to move it when I got home. I did forget about the Will Save though.

Will Save: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15

Will save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

No objections!

Kiera looks marginally annoyed as she says, "Oh, climbing the walls with your lizard? I'm sure that will be so effective," as she unleashes a pair of magic missiles into the goblin chief.

Magic missile damage: 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (4, 4) + 2 = 10

Daelric: I'm sorry.. thank you for that clarification.
Kiera: Much better than what I was able to do! We'll take that instead!

Daelric is not fooled by the warchanters curtain and rushes right through it, looking for something he can kill. unfortunately, the only thing he hits is the innocent throne..

The goblins on high continue to be more hindrance than help with their cacophony about loosing their sight.. but the one still has his head (and his eyes) and continues to try and hit something other than the floor. Unfortunately for Keira, this one got lucky and an arrow hits her in the arm.

With the "curtain" blocking his line of sight to the warchanter, Andrezi takes aim at the goblin chieftain.

Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 5

Volkar remained invisible to the others in the room. He rushed towards the throne and realized that there was a newly unfurled curtain that had fallen about the flaming dais.

As he approached, the curtain shimmered and was not really there. He swung his ax at the wand holding goblin in the corner.

Actually, Volkar, I messed up on that. Per the PRD, invisibility was lost when you tossed the bomb. "For purposes of this spell, an attack includes any spell targeting a foe or whose area or effect includes a foe."

Andrezi fires a crossbow bolt at the Chief, but it nails the wall beside the goblin, quivering in impotent fury.

Volkar also easily sees through the curtain and rushes forward to swing at the goblin bard. Mimicking Daelric, though.. he only hits the throne.

Cornered, the warchanter doesn't dare cast any more spells. Instead, she draws her dogslicer and with a growl, lashes out! However she also seems to have a vendetta against the throne, and smacks right into it.

Kiera continues to focus on the chief and hurls her enchanted dagger at him, spinning it end-over-end - then in reverse as it returns to her hand.

Thrown dagger: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Dagger damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3

Evidently, my post from last night got eaten.. I am sorry! At least the map saved..

Kiera sends out her dagger, but it returns sans any blood.. Ripnugget just grins at her before darting down the wall and across the floor right for Kiera, and taking a swipe at Daelric along the way.
Daelric takes a nasty blow from the chiefs dogslicer, and as the chief pulls up at the end of the charge, his mount deftly reaches out to see if the young wizardess is edible!

I grimace as pain shoots through my shoulder from the chiefs attack and step towards him to try and assist Kiera. I leave a small blood trail behind me and some of the blood lands on my axe blade and seeps into the metal turning it into what looks like ruby.

Stone-Strike War-Axe Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 1 = 18
Stone-Strike War-Axe Damage: 1d10 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 2 + 1 = 13

Took a 5 foot step to get there, which luckily due to my Alternate Racial Trait means I can 5 foot step over stone steps too. Also just clarifying, I am attack Chief Ripnugget.

Daelric: did you add in your +2 for flanking? I don't see it..

The Red cloaked goblin continues feathering the ground with his arrows!

No I hadn't, for some reason I didn't even realise that I was flanking. So an Attack roll of 20, with the -2 AC for charging, I really hope that hits.

Seeing that both Kiera and Daelric are injured, Andrezi decides to stop wasting his time trying to fire a crossbow and call for Desna's healing grace.

Channel energy, excluding Ripnugget, the lizard, and the red goblin.

Channel Positive Energy: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 2) = 7

Volkar swung his ax at the war chanter.

That's why I was asking!!

Daelric manages to sink his ax right into the goblin leader who squeals in pain and rage!

Andrezi puts aside his crossbow in an effort to heal his friends, while Volkar ends the auricular assault that is the warchanter!

Ripnugget spins his mount around, reeling from the solid hit from the dwarf. He turns his gecko towards the western wall, withdrawing from the dangers of close combat!

Kiera, I gave you a 5 ft step back to prevent an AOO, since you are before Ripnugget in initiative. :-)

Kiera challenges the goblin before he can flee, then sends an arrow speeding right into the goblins chest!

Seeing the Chief retreat yet again I walk over to Kiera and raise my shield, keeping my eyes on the chieftain.

Move next to Kiera and ready an action to hit the Chief if he comes within attacking range.

Moved you to Kiera, Daelric
Daelric moves to protect Kiera from further harm while keeping an eye on the goblin chief. Meanwhile, hoots and hollars of glee ring out from above as the two goblins have their eyesight returned to them! "We get you now, longshanks!! We turn yous into shish ke babs!!! mmmmm now me hungry..." the voice trails off right before another volley of arrows come flying down. Once again, Kiera catches the wrong end of a feathered shaft.

Volkar pivoted towards the base of one of the pillars holding the nearest goblin archer. He swung his axe at the pillar post hoping that he might cause some damage to the post itself.

"Why do these goblins have to talk so damned much?" Andrezi asks, taking aim and launching a bolt in the direction of the goblin chief before reloading.

Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 6

Thank you.

Acid arrow continuous damage: 2d4 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4

Kiera hurls her dagger at one of the goblin archers even as her acidic spell continues to burn the chief.

Thrown returning dagger +1: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3

Andrezzi, in the midst of complaining about the goblins, takes careful aim, and almost nonchalantly shoots the goblin chief out of his saddle. He lands on the floor with a sickening crunch and splat! The acid sizzling away in the creatures back ensures that it will not rise again.

Volkar manages to take a chunk out of the pillar, but the entire room reverberates with the shock of one of the main support beams being under direct attack.

Kiera then turns her silver dagger to the goblin above her and creates a repeat performance, giving the impression that the room is now raining little green snots.

The gecko, now riderless, runs down the wall and towards Volkar, snapping unsuccessfully at the dwarf.

Gecko-

I see the chief fall from the ceiling and hit the floor, then notice another Goblin falling from the sky. I look up to make sure none will fall on my head before getting back to the battle at hand. I take a step towards the giant gecko and swing my blade at the large creature.

War-Axe Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

5 foot step, then attack.

Daelrics ax bounces off of the lizards tough skin before the last two remaining goblins-on-a-stick try to drop more arrows into the mix.

Volkar grimmaced as an arrow point cut a line across his shoulder. He moved forward and swung his ax at the brightly colored lizard.

Andrezi briefly considers channeling energy again, but opts for a shot at the red clad goblin instead. Again he reloads after taking his shot.

Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 2

Kiera blasts another goblin with one of her usual sizzling bolts of acid.

Acid splash ranged touch attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Or not.

Volkars ax follows daelrics in bouncing off of the rubbery lizard hide, while Andrezi nails the red goblin with a bolt. Kiera sends a shot of acid skyward, but it sizzles in the rafters.

The gecko aims for Volkar again with another bite, but the gecko must be blind!

Seeing that I am not the only one struggling to strike the large gecko, I let out a soft sigh of relief, take a step so that the creature is between Volkar and myself and swing again hoping to catch the creature off guard.

Taking a 5 foot step to give flanking. I shall move myself on the map once home :-).

Already moved you!

Daelric finally manages to draw first blood on the creature, dealing a solid wound to the lizard.

The goblin archers continue to plink away at the team mates below them.

Andrezi takes a short break from firing crossbow bolts to heal his companions.

Channel Positive Energy: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 3) = 8

"ARGH! Can someone take care of the vipers?" Volkar yelled aloud as he took aim on the giant lizard. He swung his ax as he dodged the snapping tooth filled mouth of the vibrantly colored lizard.

As he swung he felt a wave of energy course through his body reknitting sliced flesh and removing aches. He laughed at the renewed vigor.

Kiera keeps conjuring acid, trying to counterattack the goblin archers above.

Acid splash: Ranged touch attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15
Acid splash: Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Andrezi channels more energy, healing his companions.

Volkar takes another chunk out of the overgrown lizard, while Kiera sends another blob of acid at the goblins. This time, one cries out with pain as the sizzling blog strikes true!

The gecko, badly wounded, pulls back from the fight and runs for the wall! It scampers up to the ceiling and hides among the rafters.
AOO's if you wish for Daelric and Volkar

Is the gecko visible, or totally covered behind the rafters? Partial cover? Concealment?

Noticing the gecko trying to flee I quickly swing my axe at it's legs, hoping to stop it in it's tracks.

War-Axe Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 5 + 2 = 22
War-Axe Damage: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

I then raise my shield and take a defensive stance behind it.

Total Defense.

The lizard pulled back as the blow landed in a glancing slash. Volkar spun the ax back around at the fleeing creature.

Kiera: Well, it was going to be visible with no concealment.. lol

Daelric slides in behind the fleeing gecko, cutting it down before it makes the wall! Afterwards, he turns his shield to the goblins above hoping for the best.

The remaining goblins, with nowhere to run, keep pegging arrows at the party.
