Shoris follows Elenial into the room and raises his arm, ready to cover her back.

Shoris cast mage armor and protection from evil before continuing, and now he readies an action to acid dart if either of the enemies approaches within 30'.

Round 2 yet?

Parsnip considers a chaw of tobacco.

Parsnip takes out his snuff box, and puts a dip in his mouth happily. This finally seems to get a repsonse from the enemies.

The skeletal champion moves forward and attacks Elenial...

Longsword: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

... his blade slices into her shoulder!

The ubashiki follows its master...

Bite: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
Claw1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Claw2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24
Damage: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

... and one set of claws rakes across her chest!

Combat Round 2
The good guys
The bad guys

The party is up!

Rowanna advances on the undead creatures and tries to place a Misfortune Hex on the cat.

Misfortune Hex on Cat, DC 16 Will save.

Did we have several held actions go off?

Parsnip will give Elenial a bit of luck.

I don't believe either creature got close enough to trigger the readied actions.

Elenial got attacked!

Elenial, remember to roll all of your d20s twice this round and pick the best one!

Elenial swings her flail at the cat.
Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
LOL
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Hehe

Actually that is my mistake. The cat did get close enough. Since it failed, we will just say that all of its attacks missed. Shoris does get to do his readied action as well, so go ahead and do that. Rowanna, go ahead and retcon. Just need a post from Shoris. Also, I likely will not be posting tomorrow as we are moving to a new place. However, I will be back on Sunday evening after work.

Will Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Elenial swings at the cat, but unfortunately her attack misses.

Readied action from Round 1:

As the cat moves closer, Shoris realizes that it is in range and a dart of acid erupts towards the cat.

touch attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18 acid damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Round 2:

Shoris steps towards the wall and begins chanting.

Casting summon monster I

Shoris, did you take your +1/+1 from bardsong?

Round 2

Rowanna moves forward and cackles to continue the Misfortune hex on the cat.

Moving forward puts her in her current position. With the Cackle, that's two move actions.

Nope, I forgot, but I think we determined earlier that it doesn't apply to spell damage

No, we determined it does per this FAQ Entry

Alrighty. That's 19 to hit for 6 acid damage, then.

Shoris' acid strikes the cat! He mvoes to begin casting another spell.

Rowanna laughs maniacally at the cat, extending the hex on it.

Will: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Will: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Will: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

Bite: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Bite Misfortune: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
Good thing the hex forces him not to take the crit...
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Grab: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

Claw1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Damage: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Claw2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Claw Misfortune: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

The rotting feline begins its onslaught against Elenial! Its bite strikes true, but fortunately the cat isunable to maintain its grip on her. Only one if its claws finds anyflesh amongst her armor.

The huntsman prepares to strike at Elenial with its rusty longsword.

Longsword: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

The blade catches Elenial in the gut! Total damage = 19

[ooc]The party is up!

Rowanna continues to laugh maniacally to maintain her Misfortune hex, but also casts Ear-Piercing Scream on the undead cat.

Sonic Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 2) = 8

DC 15 Fort save for half damage. As an undead, I believe it's immune to the Daze effect.

Cackled to maintain Misfortune.

Elenial is at 0 HP

Badly wounded Elenial withdraws.

Parsnip will move up 20' (adjustment made on map) to get between Elenial and the bad guys.

He casts Grease, although not right where that square is! I meant for it be 5' further South, but couldn't figure out how to move or delete and recreate the square.

I need a DC 14 Reflex save out of each of our antagonists.

"Elenial is in trouble, can someone heal her? There's a wand on my belt if you need it!"

"I also have a wand, don't worry! Kill the beasts!"

Is it able to use a wand with 0 HP? I think it is, but I'm not sure. Retrieving a stored item is a move action which should not cause a further loss of HP. I would need two rounds to heal myself.

Yes, you can take actions while staggered.

Elenial cannot withdraw, as per the rules for being staggered. Staggered: A staggered creature may take a single move action or standard action each round (but not both, nor can he take full-round actions). A staggered creature can still take free, swift and immediate actions. A creature with nonlethal damage exactly equal to its current hit points gains the staggered condition.

At 0 hit points you are not only staggered, but disabled, which means you can take move actions without further injuring yourself, but if you perform any standard action (or any other strenuous action) you take 1 point of damage after completing the act. Unless your activity increased your hit points, you are now at –1 hit points and dying. That being said, you will need to change your action.

Foritude: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11 Failure, so not going to bother with the second roll.

A puddle of grease appears in the squares intended by Parsnip.

Cat Reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
Cat Reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19
Huntsman Reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16

But neither one of the antagonists falls prone.

Will wait for Elenial to redo and Shoris to act before bad guys act.

I wont redo my action, still withdrawing but eating the -1 HP (restricted withdraw). I'm afraid GM is going to kill my PC otherwise.

A shiny eagle appears directly in front of the skeleton. It unleashes its full repertoire on the skeleton. As Shoris moves towards the rest of the party, another glob of acid erupts from his finger towards the rotting cat.

Summoning a celestial eagle and having it use smite evil.

attack (L. talon): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16 damage (L. talon): 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
attack (R. talon): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 damage (R. talon): 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
bite: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20 damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

acid dart (ranged touch): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12 damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Add +1/+1 to all of those.

Parsnip wonders at Halsey's location.

The eagles attacks miss, but the acid dart does not.

The huntsman moves forward and strikes at Rowanna.

Longsword: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

But misses.

The cat moves forward and attacks Parsnip.

Bite: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
Bite: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

the hex keeps it from hitting.

party is up! I know PBP 3 is coming, I will post as much as I can.

Elenial continues bleeding, her body tries to stabilize.
Stabilize: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10

Elenial stabilizes!

Both of the creatures needed to succeed at DC10 acrobatics checks to move this round as they were in the greased area.

If the monsters moved away from Shoris' eagle, I believe the eagle should have gotten an AoO.

Rowanna takes a few steps back while laughing malevolently at the undead dog. Now out the immediate range of the skeleton, she casts Burning Hands in a cone to scorch both enemies.

Burning Hands Damage: 4d4 ⇒ (1, 4, 2, 2) = 9

Took 5' step and used Cackle to continue Misfortune hex.
DC 15 Reflex save for half damage from Burning Hands

Waiting to declare my action depending on the results of the eagle's AOO and the acrobatics checks.

I rolled a 17 for one of the eagle's attacks, and it missed, but here goes nothing...

bite attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 bite damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

You're the tiefling! Now for those acrobatics checks, I'm hoping they never even got over here and they fell flat!

Damnit! I hate when this site eats my post! My original post they succeeded the saves, we will see what happens this time...

Reflex Huntsman: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Reflex Cat: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Reflex Cat: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

The huntsman fell over! And then tried to stand up...

Reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16... And is standing.

Ignore the huntsman's attacks.

The cat attempts to dodge the flames...

Reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
Reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

... and does, the flames still do extra damage.

Next round...

The Huntsman attempts to move through the grease.

Reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

And falls prone again!

It attempts to stand.

Reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11 It stands.

The cat lets out a piercing howl!

Make a DC 13 Will Save or become frightened for 1d4 ⇒ 4 rounds.

Party is up!

[ooc]This post went much better for you guys than the original.

In the first round when they move up, Parsnip will take a 5 foot step back and cast CLW on Elenial from the wand.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

I believe that is good enough to wake Elenial, so hopefully she stands.

In the second round when the cat screams:

Will: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18 Success

I will then CLW on Elenial again (stepping forward if needed due to any movement Elenial might have done..

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Unprepared for the cat's terrifying howling, Rowanna picks up her feet and flees.

Will save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24 Inspire Courage and protection from evil

As a seasoned tomb raider, Shoris shakes off the cat's howl and sends a dart of acid at it while his summoned eagle pecks and rips at the skeleton.

acid dart (ranged touch): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17 damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

eagle bite attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 eagle bite damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
L. talon attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15 L. talon damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
R. talon attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 R. talon damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Will Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

-Posted with Wayfinder

Elenial and ROwanna begin to run away while Parsnip and Shoris stand and fight!

The acid dart hits, but the eagles attacks all miss.

The cat attacks the eagle.

Bite: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Bite: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Claw1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Claw1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
Claw2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
Claw2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

One of the claw attacks hit, the rest miss.

Damage: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

The huntsman attempts to move...

Reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10 it is successful.

It attacks Parsnip.

Longsword: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

it misses.

Go party!

Haha, no we probably don't.

Parsnip looks at Shoris, shrugs and says, "let's go."

Parsnip will withdraw using a double move and keep up with Elenial.

The eagle, badly battered but still alive, lashes out at the cat again.

bite attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 bite damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
L. talon: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 L. talon damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
R. talon: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21 R. talon damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Shoris replies to Parsnip: "Right behind you...I'm going to try to slow them down." He waits for Parsnip to pass behind him into the hallway, and then he casts a spell as he follows Parsnip.

casting grease (DC 17)

Ain't nothin' gonna to break my stride
Nobody's gonna slow me down, oh-no
I got to keep on movin'
Ain't nothin' gonna break my stride
I'm running and I won't touch ground
Oh-no, I got to keep on movin'

The cat falls, destroyed. The huntsman sighs as it finds itself once again in a pool of grease.

"Why does this always happen to me..."

Reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
It falls. And tries to stand.

Reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16

Party!

Rowanna continues to flee.
