Shackled City (Pathfinder) - GM_Chris

Game Master Chris Shannon 719

Painting today, so just a quick post with now new map.

The party moves to the fisherman, just three of them left as the others were already lost overboard before the party's arrival. Another wave does not arrive and the party can begin to remove people or attempt to save the entire boat.

What sort of painting? A Pickmanesque landscape of other dimensions?

Toffitt picks up two of the fishermen and hauls them to shore. He examines them for any critical injuries before turning his attention back to the chaos around him.

Round 2, Init 24

Dyrant activates another charge of the wand of Fly on himself and moves 30' up in the air to scout, joining Aralynn.

1d20 + 25 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 25 + 2 = 40 Perception

Minute 15 - Round 2 in progress
Finneas = 25
Dyrant = 24 - Flies up.
Glimmil = 16
Toffitt = 15+ - Picks up two fishermen
Fishermen = 15
Atol = 10

On the north side of the lake, around the bend in the road, Dyrant sees a stampede of horses, mules, etc, headed their way and likely arriving in the next six seconds.

Round 2, Initiative 10, Location AF12

Atol hears the stampede coming and grabs a scroll. As soon as he sees them, he casts Calm Emotions on the leaders of the rampage. He hopes that the calming effect on the front 20’ radius spread will calm the stampede in it’s entirety (if they don't all fit in that radius).

Remember, anyone who had breakfast with Atol has 8 temporary hit points, +1 (morale) attack rolls/Will saves, and +4 (morale) on poison/fear saves from the heroes' feast for 12 hours.

Round 3, Init 24

Dyrant grunts as the thundering herd of horses, donkeys, mules, and atols comes down the way.

Reacting quickly, Dyrant flies 60' closer (still 30' in the air) toward the stampede.

Dyrant will cast Wall of Ice.(14 10'x10' squares worth), trying to put it well ahead of the stampede (giving them time to slow) and protect civilians.

Round 2 Init 25

Granted the "gift" of flight by Dyrant, Finneas grabs the last fisherman and flies above the stampede.

Round 2, Init 16

Glimmil stands aboard the small boat, ready to pursue his plan to grab the anchor rope and tug it to shore. When he looks up, he notices that all the fisherman have disappeared.

"Wait... were those gho--?"

Glancing upwards, he sees the heels of Finneas, Toffitt and the three fisherman and shrugs at the rope he's holding.

"Hello? Anyone else aboard?"

Moving over, he peeks into the cabin for any other fisherfolk in need of saving before leaping off the vessel and into the air again, ascending hire than any other future dangerous waves.

The party removes some thankful sailors, but thinks better of trying to save the boat. The escaped animals from the lakeside livery are first calmed by Atol and then diverted by Dyrant. Unfortunately for the animals the reason for their stampeded quickly becomes evident as a large pack of vrocks rips through the now stationary animals. It’s hard to tell, but there appear to only be three of them, but mirror images add to the confusion. The screams and wailing of the animals can be heard even above the fires and crashing buildings of the city.

Alongside the vrocks the water bubbles even more than the rest of the lake. Suddenly, a massive pale gray shape surges out of the boiling water with a thunderous roar. The creature’s face is that of a deep-sea fish with protruding red eyes and a gaping fanged maw. Horns protrude from its brow and chin, and a spiny sail-like fin runs along its back. Its lower body resembles that of an octopus in that it has eight tentacles, but the creature also sports long, lobster-like legs. The front pair of these legs end in massive talons, one of which holds a wand. A pair of huge wings or flippers unfurls from the creature’s sides, lifting it out of the water and into the air. The creature’s flesh is blistered in places, obviously scaled by the boiling water, and it roars again as it turns from the animals towards the party. The Morkoth has risen from the lake.

Minute 15 - Round 3
Finneas = 25
Dyrant = 24 - Flies up.
Demons = 18
- Morkoth
- Vrock 1 (5 images)
- Vrock 2 (8 images)
- Vrock 3 (8 images)
Glimmil = 16
Toffitt = 15+
Atol = 10

There are mirror images and spell resistance in effect. Please remember caster level checks. I’ve removed the stampede as it was dealt with and too much at this point. I had to reset the map, so I placed people in reasonable positions. I’ve assumed that Toffitt and Finneas dropped off their fishermen who have now run off. All buildings are 20' high for simplicity.

Round 3 (1st half) Map

Ah, a little time-bending if Toffitt picked up the fishermen on Round 3 Init 15... Glimmil wouldn't have arrived at an empty ship on Round 2 Init 16. Glimmil would've picked them up on his initiative, and thus Toffitt would not have any fishermen to grab in Round 3...?

Glimmil floats over the water and observes with a blank stare as the Morkoth rises from the lake.

Wait... those are real??

From the corner of his eye, Glimmil catches a glimpse of the tiny saddle affixed to Cog and has a terrible thought of riding a Morkoth mount, but quickly shakes his head and dismisses the impracticality of all the tentacles and lobster-like legs in a cramped underground tunnel.

I almost reset the rounds to the beginning, but didn't because I know people are on the last minute of some buffs. Just to be clear. Finneas and Dyrant are up and then the demons. I removed the copy/paste error showing Toffitt's action in round 3.

Round 3, Init 15+, Part One

Is the Morkoth 'large' or 'huge'?

Know (Planes) v. Vrock: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 2 = 16
Know (???) v. Morkoth: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15 Arcane +10, Dungeoneering +5, Local +12, Nature +21, Planes +6

Round 4, Init 24

Dyrant stares at the Vrocks rampaging and *facepalms*...a look at the morkoth brings a second *facepalm*.

This is like a gnome sleepover...each hour it gets worse and worse.

Dryant and Aralynn fly to L23 to 10' up and gaze upon the horrors.

Vrocks:
1d20 + 27 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 27 + 2 = 44 Knowledge (Planes)

Morkoth:
1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 12 + 2 = 22 Dungeoneering
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16 +22 more for Knowledge (Arcana, Local, History, Nature, Planes, Religion)

Dyrant sends a fireball from his AngelRelic at the 3 Vrocks, not seeing a lot of good options.

10d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 6, 2, 5, 5, 1, 3, 6, 4) = 42 Fire Damage vs. DC 13 Reflex

1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24 SR Check - Vrock #1
1d20 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18 SR Check - Vrock #1
1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34 SR Check - Vrock #1

V1 REF: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (10) + 12 = 22 - DR = 11 damage
V2 saved by SR
V3 REF: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30 - DR = 11 damage

Round 3

Finneas stares at the creature, surprised to learn the stories of a lake monster the orphans told each other has come alive.

"Kord guide my hand!"

Cast Divine Favor then forward 20'.

Dyrant’s fireball puts many of the animals out of their misery while leaving an almost pleasant smell of gristle in the air. Two of the vrocks take a little bit of damage from the spell, but one completely ignores its effects. Finneas calls on Kord for more assistance and moves up to face the demons.

The vrocks decided to thank Dyrant personally for his fireball and surround him, popping up next to him via teleportation. The first vrock in releases a cloud of spores that cling to Dryant and Aralynn and burrow into their bodies. damage: 1d8 ⇒ 1

A malevolent darkness like an oily skin covers the morkoth as it flies closer to the party.

Minute 15 - Round 3
Glimmil = 16

Round 3-4 Map

Round 4

His ruse to lure the Vrocks closer complete, Finneas moves in and attacks.

I am still Enlarged, so will move to G26<->H27. Dyrant is claiming that stick as a weapon so I've added flanking. Weapon is magic cold iron holy.

Greatsword @V2: 1d20 + 20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 20 + 2 = 37
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (4, 4, 4) + 19 = 31
Evil: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 5) = 9

Round 3, Init 16

Glimmil's Fly speed is 40ft without Cog, so he unfortunately comes up short from any monsters if he does a flying charge.

As Glimmil observes the three bird-monsters swarming around Dyrant, he calls upon the holy power of Garl (Cast Divine Favor) before kicking his heels and soaring towards the Cuthbertite, summoning Claw-Whomper to his hand with a *pop* and keeping his right arm outstretched as he flies ahead.

Fly 40ft to Y,26

Round 3, Initiative 10, Location AF12->K30

Atol rounds the corner and sees Dyrant surrounded by Vrock. He hesitates considering his options, then continues running (double move) to be close in case he should fall.

”Dyrant, get out of there - you’re no fighter! Why did you charge in among them like that?”

Remember, anyone who had breakfast with Atol has 8 temporary hit points, +1 (morale) attack rolls/Will saves, and +4 (morale) on poison/fear saves from the heroes' feast for 12 hours.

Round 3, Init 15+

Toffitt takes a moment to assess the opposition and imbibes an extract (Shield). He flies over the vrocks' heads to just above Dyrant, hoping to draw their fire (and AoOs).

Round 4, Init 24

Dyrant smiles at the converging Vrocks.

Dyrant takes Aralynn and defensively casts DimDoor, taking Aralynn and himself to C33 at 5' up.

1d20 + 22 ⇒ (16) + 22 = 38 Concentration vs. DC23 = Autocheck

Glimmil approaches the morkoth while the rest of the party deals with the vrocks. The putrid steam from the boiling lake fills his lungs. DC 17 FORT save vs STR and CON damage.

Toffitt drinks a potion and flies above Dyrant to draw the AoO's, which he does with much success as numerous claws slice only the air.

Atol moves up to see Dyrant bravely taking on three vrocks. Finneas moves up. Kord guides his hand and he manages to pick out the one real vrock from all the images. He cuts a deep gash into its side. mirror image: 1d9 ⇒ 1

Dyrant says his goodbyes and pops out of sight. He takes a bit of damage as vines sprout from the spores and begin to attach to his body. 1d4 ⇒ 1

The vrock nearest to Atol rears back its head and screeches. DC 21 FORT save for Toffitt, Finneas, and Atol vs being stunned.

One of the other vrocks moves 5' closer to Finneas before releasing spores that catch Finneas and Toffitt. damage: 1d8 ⇒ 2 One vrock tries attack Toffitt while the other attacks Finneas as they attempt to identify the easier prey to take down first. Each vrock only hits once so the question remains unanswered for them.

Over the water, the morkoth takes notice of Glimmil. Is Cog on the shore? I'm so used to him flying at this point that I missed it this time.

The morkoth points its wand at Glimmil and sends a lightning bolt his way. It then moves forward and upward trying to catch a glimpse of how the vrocks are doing. damage: 10d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 2, 4, 4, 5, 6, 1, 3, 1) = 32 DC 17 REF save for half

Minute 15 - Round 4
Glimmil = 16
Toffitt = 15+

There are mirror images and spell resistance in effect. Please remember caster level checks.

Round 4-5 Map

Yep, Glimmil used his winged boots and left Cog at the shore after telling him to get a safe distance from the waves since he thought he was just going to tug a boat safely to shore.

Fort DC17: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (20) + 24 = 44
Reflex DC17: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (1) + 16 = 17 -32 damage

Feast and famine... feast and famine...

Glimmil, choking on the hot steam, wipes some sweat from his eyes and glances about the aerial battlefield.

Good, Dyrant seems to be safe. Is there sea salt in my eyes or are there like twenty vrocks?

Glimmil considers counting all the images to ascertain if his estimation skills are properly honed, but then realizes he has little time to count to twenty -- that might take a minute or two with all the vrocks swirling around each other.

"Guys?! There's this big fishy-squid monster over here and..."

Glimmil's teeth chatter as he's electrocuted for the tenth time in his career.

"aa-aa-aaannnd, it's a wii-wii-wiizard???"

Glimmil glances about and pines for Cog and his lance - but with determination, he keeps his teeth gritted against the involuntary chattering.

"Okay, Mister Morkoth. Challenge accepted!"

Smite Evil vs the Morkoth and fly up to V,20 to melee it.

Claw Whomper, Power Attack: 1d20 + 20 + 3 + 1 - 0 ⇒ (17) + 20 + 3 + 1 - 0 = 41 for 1d6 + 7 + 8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 8 + 3 = 19
Holy: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 4) = 8
Add +5 to hit and 13 damage if it's a regular evil do-badder. Instead, add 26 damage if it's a particularly evil do-badder.

I believe the spores are a disease attack, no? If so, no damage to Toffitt. I'll assume I'm right unless you say otherwise.

Ford v. 21: 1d20 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 13 + 2 = 16

Well poo.

Toffitt gibbers in mid-air, healing a bit as he does so.

Yes. Immunity to disease protects you. However, I believe your fancy pointy stick is now on the ground below you. Also looks like two more hits due to your reduced AC.

All right! Who else has a natural 1 in their dicebot? /evil grin

Indeed. Those hits are calculated into status, evil one.

Round 4, Init 24

Dyrant double flies to D12 at 15' up, looking to see how the Cauldron Vrock Welcome Committee is going...and *facepalms* as Toffittt flies gibbering and swordless and in the middle of the blast zone.

Round 4, Initiative 10, Location K30->J29

Fort vs Screech: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (10) + 15 = 25 vs DC 21

Atol, hoping to stun two of the demons and stop them from attacking Toffitt, casts Sound Burst, Fort DC 17. He targets V2 and V3 doing 1d8 ⇒ 5 damage and they're stunned for the round if they fail their saves.

SR V2: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18
SR V3: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32

Atol then 5' steps a little closer to the fight.

Remember, anyone who had breakfast with Atol has 8 temporary hit points, +1 (morale) attack rolls/Will saves, and +4 (morale) on poison/fear saves from the heroes' feast for 12 hours.

V2 saved by SR
V3 FORT save: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (18) + 15 = 33

Sigh. I want to know where your 1's are mr GM sir.

Round 5

Fort DC 21: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31

Finneas ignores the screech and attacks the same vrock as before.

Greatsword: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (7) + 20 = 27
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (5, 3, 5) + 19 = 32
Evil: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 4) = 5

Greatsword: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (20) + 15 = 35
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (1, 4, 4) + 19 = 28
Evil: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 5) = 6

Greatsword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (2, 6, 4) + 19 = 31
Evil: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 1) = 5

#2 Crit: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 19
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (6, 6, 5) + 19 = 36

Not sure on images since miss by 5 pops them.

Glimmil rushers forward alone versus the morkoth. He easily swats away a tentacle that tries to swat him and then delivers a mighty blow.

Toffitt spends the round contemplating how best to retrieve his sword from the ground 15' below him. The vrocks are evil, but am I that evil?

Atol tries to answer the vrock's stunning screech with his own sound burst, but it only does a bit of damage.

Finneas continues to swing at the same vrock, but Kord fails to guide his hand this time and he only manages to eliminate a few images.
1d9 ⇒ 8
1d8 ⇒ 4
1d7 ⇒ 7

Dyrant flies somewhere...D-12 is past 3 building and next to the ice wall???

One vrock drops by 5', picks up Toffitt's sword, and teleports away out of sight. I guess I am that evil.

Minute 15 - Round 5

There are mirror images and spell resistance in effect. Please remember caster level checks.

Round 5-6 Map

Wow. That was super dickish, and makes me wonder how the Vrock knows the sword is that special. I'm sure it's pretty, but really?

Round 5, Initiative 10, Location J29->J30

Atol watches the Vrock disappear and very nearly cries out in anger. I thinks through his spells and rifles through his scrolls, but having nothing that will help that situation now, he instead steps back (5’ to J30) and begins a full round cast (Summon Monster V).

Thanks Dyrant for the holy-inspired idea!

Remember, anyone who had breakfast with Atol has 8 temporary hit points, +1 (morale) attack rolls/Will saves, and +4 (morale) on poison/fear saves from the heroes' feast for 12 hours.

Round 5, Init 15+

Toffitt curses. Maybe if I'd called it Shadow's Death or something grandiose nonsnse like that, it wouldn't have flown as easily from my hand.

He shrugs, clicks his heels together (haste), draws his holy longbow, and fires a volley at the more injured vrock. He blithely ignores their attempts to rebut his arrows.

Holy Compositve Longbow (counts as silver + cold iron): 1d20 + 10 + 8 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 10 + 8 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 4 = 27
10 BAB +8 Dex +2 Heroism +1 Magic +1 Crowd Control +1 Haste -4 into combat
1d8 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 3 + (6, 5) = 19

Iterative: 1d20 + 5 + 8 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 5 + 8 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 4 = 15
1d8 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + 3 + (6, 3) = 16

Haste: 1d20 + 10 + 8 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 8 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 4 = 26
1d8 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 3 + (1, 3) = 12

Round 5, Init 16

Visions of riding the morkoth continue to dance in Glimmil's imagination like a circle of spriggans circling Dyrant in some sort of bizarre Cuthbert-Ehlonna infused crossover ritual of fertility.

Shaking them off, Glimmil tries to aim his boots at the morkoth in order to land directly upon it and deliver a mighty bashing from Claw-Whomper.

(Not sure if you want to employ any special rules for Glimmil to land on the morkoth - mostly looking for cinematic flair and not anything special like mechanical advantages or a grapple)

"Bad squid-monster! Bad! I hate being zapped!"

After several poundings, Glimmil's hook-hammer disappears and reappears a moment later as Glimmil quickly scratches several of the burn marks and then beams as once again Garl sees fit to mend his wounds in the heat of battle (Lay Hands).

Round 5, Init 24

Dyrant double flies to D13 at 15' up, watching the interesting Morkoth.

Who the heck knew that there actually was a morkoth in the lake! I wonder if it is drunk.

Mental note: ask Dr. Toffitt for toxicology screen.

Dyrant probes the Morkoth for weaknesses, trying to reflect its damage against itself.

Retribution: (8 Rounds vs. DC25 Will) = 1/2 melee damage back at bad guy.

Round 6

Ignored again, the Kordite attempts to end one of the vrocks.

Greatsword: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (19) + 20 = 39
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (5, 2, 3) + 19 = 29
Evil: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 3) = 8

Greatsword: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 15 = 20
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (4, 4, 3) + 19 = 30
Evil: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 1) = 5

Greatsword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (4, 4, 5) + 19 = 32
Evil: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 6) = 9

#1 Confirm: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (10) + 20 = 30
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (6, 5, 1) + 19 = 31

Glimmil pounds away at the morkoth, but each hit is deflected by the inky darkness that coats it.
I forgot an effect, but won't go back to previous rounds. Please make a FORT save each time you attack the morkoth.

Toffitt blithely quick draws his bow and fires away at the vrocks as they claw at him. He doesn't manage to hit either, but does take out three images.
mirror images: 1d6 ⇒ 5
mirror images: 1d5 ⇒ 4
mirror images: 1d4 ⇒ 3

Atol takes a step back, pulls out a scroll and begins casting.

His pride hurt a bit, Finneas attempts to do more damage than Toffitt. He pops one image and then another, finally leaving only the vrock standing there. Finneas then cuts an even larger gash in this one then the first one he already made.
mirror images: 1d3 ⇒ 3
miss, but image pop

Dyrant peeks over the roof of the building at the morkoth and tries to stare him down, but it's unclear if the morkoth even noticed him.
will save: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (7) + 20 = 27

The missing vrock returns to provide a flank, but does not have Toffitt's sword. Finneas gets his wish though as the vrocks ignore the flank and turn their attention to him. The first few attacks miss, but then the vrock's nail down Finneas and begin to tear apart his flesh and armor.

The spores continue to sprout vines over Dyrant, Aralynn, Finneas, and Toffitt. damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3

The morkoth takes an air step back from Glimmil and goes back to his magics. This time it waves a claw at Glimmil and a smoky darkness spews from its spines. It quickly envelops Glimmil and attempts to destroy him utterly before dissipating.
Destruction spell. 210 damage or DC 21 FORT save for only 37 damage.
damage: 10d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 6, 3, 1, 6, 1, 5, 1, 6) = 37

Round 6-7 Map

Round 6, Initiative 10, Location J30->G26

Atol summons 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 Lantern Archons to try and dissipate some of the mirror images. He places them in a semi-circle above the Vrock (20’ up and within 10’ of their targets). They immediately attack the Vrock (light ray, 30’ range), starting with Vrock #1 and moving to Vrock #3 if all images are dispelled there. (I just have to hit within 5 of their touch to dispel an image. Crosses fingers.)

LA1 Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8 damage (bypasses all DR): 1d6 ⇒ 4
LA1 Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23 damage (bypasses all DR): 1d6 ⇒ 3
LA1 Ranged Touch crit threat: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 damage (bypasses all DR): 1d6 ⇒ 2

LA2 Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17 damage (bypasses all DR): 1d6 ⇒ 1
LA2 Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23 damage (bypasses all DR): 1d6 ⇒ 3
LA2 Ranged Touch crit threat: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11 damage (bypasses all DR): 1d6 ⇒ 4

LA3 Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16 damage (bypasses all DR): 1d6 ⇒ 4
LA3 Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 damage (bypasses all DR): 1d6 ⇒ 4

While the light show continues, Atol moves (to G26) in a slight circle to behind Finneas (to avoid AoOs by the Vock) and converts a dimensional anchor spell to a Cure Critical Wounds for 4d8 + 13 ⇒ (4, 7, 2, 1) + 13 = 27 to take the edge off his last round of damages.

Remember, anyone who had breakfast with Atol has 8 temporary hit points, +1 (morale) attack rolls/Will saves, and +4 (morale) on poison/fear saves from the heroes' feast for 12 hours.

Round 6, Init 10

Fondo glares at the returned vrock. "You think the sword's my only trick?" He drinks an extract (greater invisibility) and disappears. He then flies up ten feet.

The spores aren't affecting Toffitt.

Fort DC21 vs 210 damage death or 37 damage: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (18) + 24 = 42

On attacking the Morkoth, is it a Fortitude save per attack? Or per round of attacks? Is there any indication of what this is for? Glimmil did hit AC34 if it's evil - that wasn't enough right?

Round 6, Init 16

Glimmil frowns at his lack of success in whomping the floating morkoth. He gives the rest of the battlefield a long look, wondering if the others are still dancing around in the sky with the giant purple birds.

Cog stands at the edge of the battle, barking frantically at Glimmil.

"I'll be right there, boy... I didn't mean to fly off without you!"

Lay Hands: 7d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 1, 3, 3, 4, 4) = 24

Still aglow with Garl's power, Glimmil grips his hook-hammer tigher and tries to whomp the big flying fish a few more times.

Round 5, Init 24

Dyrant flies to T13 at 15' up and tries to vex the Morkoth and aid fair Glimmil.

Evil Eye: DC 25 Will save vs. 10 rounds of penaties. On save 1 round of penalties. Choosing -4 on attacks.

Yes, the morkoth is evil. I missed the 'add +5' taglines. So that's three more hits. Each time Glimmil hits, the inky substance around the morkoth tries to drain Glimmil's strength. Morkoth has taken 157 damage (37,40,46,34=157)

This time Glimmil doesn't hit at all though with the natural 1 and lower numbers. Morkoth is still up.
Morkoth will save: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (18) + 20 = 38

The morkoth still seems oblivious to Dyrant's presence.

Round 7

Bleeding from multiple cuts, Finneas tries again to kill at least one of his foes.

Greatsword: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (13) + 20 = 33
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (2, 4, 4) + 19 = 29
Evil: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 2) = 8

Greatsword: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (3) + 15 = 18
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (3, 5, 6) + 19 = 33
Evil: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 6) = 9

Greatsword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
Damage: 3d6 + 19 ⇒ (2, 6, 5) + 19 = 32
Evil: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 5) = 11

Glimmil survives the destruction spell, but it shakes him just enough he is unable to score a hit this round.

Toffitt drinks a potion while the vrocks claw at him. Unscathed, he goes invisible and flies upwards.

Atol tries to eliminate some targets, but his freshly called archon's find the situation awfully chaotic and have trouble focusing. They still manage to finish off all of the images for one of the vrocks. -4 for combat.

While no images remain, Finneas still has a hard time hitting the broad side of a vrock more than once. Fortunately, it is enough to bring it crashing to the ground.

The first vrock moves up next to Atol and screeches. DC 21 FORT save or stunned for Finneas and Atol. Toffitt is out of range this time.

The other vrock tries to finish off Finneas just as Finneas did his partner.

The morlock flies back 5' and actually peers back at Dyrant before casting blasphemy, which catches Glimmil and Dryant.

Minute 15 - Round 7
Glimmil = 16
Toffitt = 15+
Atol = 10
Minute 15 - Round 8
Finneas = 25
Dyrant = 24
Demons = 18
- Morkoth (37,40,46,34=-157)
spells used: unholy aura, destruction
- Vrock 1 (no images, spore) (-11) (teleported away with Toffitt's sword)
- Vrock 2 (no images)(40,41,37=-118, down)
- Vrock 3 (8 images, screech) (11,5=-16)

There are mirror images and spell resistance in effect. Please remember caster level checks. If you attack the morkoth with a melee attack, then I need a FORT save.
