I imagine that the circle I just put up would be the appropriate spot as to where it's centered?


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Sure, that'll do.


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

Initiative: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27
Is Vanya going to be moving before Triel turns out the lights?


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

I think you did--you DID roll a higher initiative than me.


Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12

Cian turns and stares at the half-elf. Triel's decisive actions spur him on and he tries to lob flame at where he'd last seen the man before darkness enveloped all of them.

Selected Flame Jet(Fire): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Fire Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

Not much I can do bottle up in here...

Vanya moves to Ameiko's side, "What's going on out there?"


Male Elf Ranger 1

Arathorn starts back in surprise at the elf now standing before him.

initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23


GMPC:

Ithylia Initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

As the half elf appears and begins to attack from behind in the midst of all the confusion, Triel's quick thinking and actions help ensure that his first blows towards Arathorn are thrown off course. Cian's burst of flame takes an upward turn as he is thrown off from the darkness, as it luckily doesn't injure anyone else, but it also doesn't make it's mark. Ithylia makes a quick decision to leave the dark area and move to somewhere in which she hopes she can be more useful.

That's it for the surprise round, everyone post their actions for round one. Initiative order for you all (if it helps tactical planning) is Vanya>Arathorn>Triel>Cian>Ithylia. Triel's darkness now has 9 rounds left.


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

"Stay calm, Ameiko! Triel will get that baddie!" Vanya tries not to let her sense of panic in the dark overwhelm her, and is relieved as the sphere of darkness leaves her and Ameiko.

Can't do much in the dark, so Delay :/


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Round 1: Actions
Standard Action: Use Racial Spell: Faerie Fire on baddie

Triel doesn't understand anything Vanya is saying, but considering she just witnessed Cian miss by a country mile with his magic, she understands what to do next.

She focuses inward, drawing on another inborn spell of hers...

"Зажгите его." She intones, pointing at the enemy through the darkness.

Abyssal:
"Light him up."

Immediately, the newcomer is outlined in purple... that glows clearly enough that anyone in the darkness can tell where he is.


Let me see if I understand this... So for everyone with darkvision, he's outlined purple, but for those with low light vision, are they going to be able to see the purple outline or no?


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

If you're affected by faerie fire, anyone can target you in the dark. That's my understanding of the spell's effects.

PFSRD wrote:
A pale glow surrounds and outlines the subjects. Outlined subjects shed light as candles. Creatures outlined by faerie fire take a -20 penalty on all Stealth checks. Outlined creatures do not benefit from the concealment normally provided by darkness (though a 2nd-level or higher magical darkness effect functions normally), blur, displacement, invisibility, or similar effects. The light is too dim to have any special effect on undead or dark-dwelling creatures vulnerable to light.

Essentially, yes--people with low-light vision can see the purple outline.


Okay, that's what I was thinking. I just wanted to verify that was your train of thought so that way you didn't wind up wasting an ability for the day.


Male Elf Ranger 1

Arathorn pulls his shortbow against his chest, realizing the close proximity to his target.

attack shortbow composite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

damage shortbow composite: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Arathorn curses his luck for allowing another elf to sneak up on him while he was on guard. The bolt does little to no damage to his attacker.


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Cian aims a finger at the purple outline and utters his words again.

"SELECTI! IGNIS! JET!"

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
Damage?: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

"An auspicious start to directing Cian, yes?"


dumb dice roller...


GMPC:

Ithylia Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18
Ithylia Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 3

As Arathorn lets loose an arrow towards the half elf, something goes wrong as it misses it's target completely. However, after seeing where the arrow came from the darkness, the half elf narrows in his punch and makes hard contact with the elf. As Triel outlines the half elf with her spell, Cian just barely manages to light him up in flames. In the mean time, Ithylia runs up from behind and whips her scarf at the man. "Stay away from my friends!" she exclaims as the scarf makes contact with him.

Arathorn takes 7 damage, you all have dealt 9 damage. Triel's darkness will last 8 more rounds, her faerie fire will last 9 more rounds. Vanya is on an unexpected delay, so if you wish to act now, I'll put your actions at the beginning of next post. Just make sure you state you round 1 and 2 actions.


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

Seeing the man limned in light Vanya calls down a hail of meteors.

DC 14 REF to Negate Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4


Is that a delayed action?


Male Elf Ranger 1

Arathorn sees his chance to change weapons while the others attack the intruder. He drops his shortbow behind him and quickly reaches for his short sword and schimitar. He holds his short sword at the ready and swings his schimitar at his opponent.

attack schimitar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

damage schimitar: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Does Arathorn gain bonuses to hit from attacking from the darkness?


I wouldn't think so because the half elf is outside of the area. But I don't think that having concealment would add to the attack. I'll double check though.


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

Aye. Resetting init.


Okay, just be sure to make your round 2 action as well.


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

Vanya calls down the fires of heaven again!

REF 14 or : 1d4 ⇒ 3


And for Cian's actions? Also, did anyone want to take up Ithylia as well?


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Standard Action: Throw Flame Jet at baddie
No Action: Step aside so Triel can move forward

Cian keeps throwing his flame jet!

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

He then steps aside.


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

Ithylia begins a violent reel on her fiddle, hoping to get her friends synchronized!

Ithylia begins an Inspire Courage; +1 to hit, damage and saves v fear


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Round 2: Actions
No Action: 5' step forward
Standard Action: Heal Arathorn

Triel steps forward, bringing her cloud of darkness with her. This time, the half-elf is engulfed by it, but the purple outline around him still goes strong.

She touches Arathorn in the middle of his back. "Продолжать бороться!"

Abyssal:
"Keep fighting!"

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Unfortunately, it appears that Gorum isn't paying attention to this fight...


As Vanya begins to throw her own flames from above, the half elf dodges both fire and blade as Arathorn's attack misses as well. Continuing with his sense of accomplishment, the half elf continues to assault the darkness, with one of his two fists landing a solid blow to Arathorn as the elf falls to the floor unconscious. As Triel approaches to heal the fallen warrior, Cian's flames miss it's intended target as Vanya's call for flames of the sky manage to finally scorch the half elf.

Rough round. Arathorn takes another 6 damage, and with the aid from Triel, is currently at 0 and conscious, but prone. Triels' darkness has 7 rounds left with her faerie fire at 8 rounds left. Everyone post for Round 3 actions.


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Would Ithylia be providing flanking with her bladed scarf if I stepped in and took a swing at him?

Also, did you learn anything about whether or not we gain bonuses to hit from concealment?


Sorry for not stating that. No, you wouldn't, well not in melee anyways. Ranged could, but melee doesn't get bonuses for concealment. And Ithylia would still have to be opposite of someone to provide flanking.


Female Half Elf Sorcerer (Starsoul) 1 | HP 8 | AC 12 FF 10 T12 | Saves +2/+2/+3 | Init + 8 | Percep +3

Vanya stumbles her way through the dark towards the hallway, once next to Triel she turns her attention to the illuminated half-elf. With a bold incantation, she drives a vivid blinding wave of color into their attacker.

Move at half speed to preclude an Acrobatics check, get into the hallway with Triel and Arathorn. Unfortunately, Arathorn is going to take the Color Spry, too. DC15 Will for the half-elf attacker and Arathorn...


Manifest: 12/12|Female Drow Spiritualist (Fractured Mind) 9|HP: 45/63|AC: 22/14/17|Saves: +7 Fort, +6 Ref, +8 Will (+10 w/Spirit, +2 vs. enchantment, +4 vs. mind-affecting w/Spirit)|Init: +3|Perc: +14

Round 3 Actions: Cian
Full-Round Action: Double Move around the side to help Ithylia

Cian races around the side to help the bardess with her magic.

Round 3 Actions: Triel
Free Action: Drop greatsword
Move Action: Draw Dagger
Standard Action: Throw dagger at half-elf

Frustrated at Arathorn lying on his back, Triel drops her blade, yanks her knife from her boot and hurls it at the outlined half-elf.

Ranged Attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18
Damage?: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5


Male Elf Ranger 1

Arathorn, shaking his head regain focus, slowly rises to his feet to stand beside Triel. He picks up his schimitar on the way up.

Arathorn has to take a full action to stand up. That bugger better not hit me!


GMPC:

Ithylia Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19
Ithylia Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1
Arathorn Will: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

As Arathorn starts to pick himself up, the half-elf shifts back to face his female attacker, delivering a blow to her stomach. As his fists land against Ithylia, a dagger from Triels hand finds itself lodged into the half elf's shoulder as he screams in pain. While Cian moves around to get a better position, Ithylia takes advantage of the moment to make another attack against the man. As Vanya blasts out her stunning display of color, her good intentions fall short as the man is unaffected, but results in Arathorn once again falling to the floor unconscious.

So now we're at the point where if you want him alive, this where you'd want to make sure you don't fully kill him. Ithylia has taken 4 points of damage, and has 2 rounds of her bardic performance left, Triel has 6 rounds of her Darkness and 7 rounds of her Faerie Fire left, and Arathorn is now unconscious for 4 rounds, blinded for 7, and stunned for 8.
