lol. Disable device.

"There is a lock on this door. Unless we can break it by some means I think we must hope our friend is elsewhere."

-Posted with Wayfinder

Wyconda graciously accepts the offer of healing, promising a return of favour as soon as fate allows.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Perfect. Two charges. Many thanks!

Looking at the door, Wyconda is as confused as the others. "Should we perhaps knock? We should leave no room unchecked until we find our bardic friend."

"If we cannot find him elsewhere we could perhaps come back?"

-Posted with Wayfinder

I'm afraid I have not the skill to open such a lock. Perhaps we should move on, maybe we will find the key.

Wyconda nods to Hask's suggestion. "If not, I would be loathe to return without him, or whatever else may reside within which may help us. I could try to simply break the door. If it comes to that, my friends."

Have at it. I'll help, if you want.

Aid Another Strength Check: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (5) + 0 = 5

Hask then proceeds to bounce off the door when he puts his shoulder into it.

The samurai cannot help but laugh. "I moreso meant if we do not find another means to open it. But if we are so keen on getting into that room this moment..."

Wyconda does a half-hearted lunge at the door.

Strength: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

Hask chuckles at himself as well.
A shining example of Half Orc physical prowess, I am not, I'm afraid. That, and this door is a worthy for indeed. Perhaps it is best to come back to it.

The door simply doesn't wish to be moved...

The party tries the stairs, once again taking care to open doors gently.

Crude bunks line the walls of this room, which is filled with the nauseating stench of troglodytes. Three of these reptile men appear to be idly sitting about.

Per earlier, you haven't compromised a position - but once someone does something obvious then it will trigger the engagement

"I would break it down, but I don't want to make you boys feel inferior..." Inira grins.

Fingalad pulls the door to. "Let's ambush them. All three of us shoot through the door and then Wyconda steps up to block the way."

Inira readies her bow to lend support.

Hask loads his crossbow, confident he isn't going to hit anything but the wall.
Attack (when everyone is ready to fire): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 3

Wyconda sighs. "Must we make enemies of these ones as well?"

Clearly he does not see them for himself to make that judgment call.

Confirming the plan is to crack the door and then unleash arrows?

Yup. Here are my attack rolls to save time.

Longbow, attack, point blank shot: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 5 + 1 = 22
Longbow, damage, point blank shot, arcane strike: 1d8 + 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 1 + 1 = 9

The arrow flies from the dark doorway...neatly striking the lizard man.
Red

R1
Fingalad
Inira
Wyconda
ENEMY
Hask

Wyconda shakes his head at the impulsiveness of his allies, but never the less enters the fray to try to finish off the red-scaled lizard man.

Power Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10 unlikely to hit flatfooted AC =(
1d8 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

Wyconda does not manage to strike the creature...

Inira takes aim and fires.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Inira, kill red or injure orange? ;p

MAP

Kill red - better to reduce their ability to attack us.

Noted and updated, now Red's dead

Fingalad up

Fingalad makes his way into the room along the far wall, then shoots at one of the troglodytes orange.

Longbow, atttack, PBS: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 5 + 1 = 25
Longbow, damage, PBS, arcane strike: 1d8 + 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 2 + 1 + 1 = 11

I take it my last roll was for the surprise round? If not, just make this my attack roll or action for next round and leave me in the tower until then

Yup, an arrow flying out of the darkness at the hapless lizard person was the notional surprise round :)

Fingalad cuts the life out of another foe.

The last remaining creature runs and opens a door...

R1
Hask

R2
Fingalad
Inira
Wyconda

Hask loads and fires his crossbow at the thing's back while it flees.
Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 4

The bolt hits the door!

Sweet! I was totally aiming for that!

It looks dramatic though! :)

Wyconda charges after the final man.

Power Attack: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 3 + 2 = 23
1d8 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

Confirm: 1d20 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 2 + 1 = 14
1d8 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

The slashing blade brings the fleeing creature down!

Wyconda spots another one though, bigger than those seen so far - it is in the room beyond...

/Fingalad and Inira up!

Inira enters the first room so she can get a clear shot in the next room, and fires at the big guy if she sees him.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

on a phone so cannot move icon on the map

The arrow barely misses!

/Fingalad up...

Fingalad follows Inira's example, moving into the room and firing at the other lizard-man, his face smooth and inscrutable; his eyes focused and determined.

Longbow, Attack, PBS: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 5 + 1 = 18
Longbow, damage, Arcane Strike, PBS: 1d8 + 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 1 + 1 = 8

-Posted with Wayfinder

The arrow sinks deep - a brilliant shot. but the creature remains combative!

It moves in and swings its club at Wyconda
Attack 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13
But to little effect...

R2
Hask

R3
Fingalad
Inira
Wyconda

Hask growls, and summons a ball of fire, which he hurls at the enemy!
Acid Splash Converted to Fire: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13
Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Hi all!

We are pretty quickly reaching the conclusion of this scenario. At your convenience, could you kindly provide your various PFS details so that I can report the session and get Chronicles out in a timely fashion?

Please note there is no day job for this Module

Hastk that is a touch attack yeah?

Yep, Ranged Touch. Thank the Gods. Otherwise I would only be landing attacks with Magic Missile.

Why is there no Day Job? I thought modules were allowed day jobs starting in Season 5 and I do not recall them being revoked. Not that it matters, Wyconda doesn't have one, haha.

Inira shoots another arrow.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

"Do you yield?"

Why is there no Day Job? I thought modules were allowed day jobs starting in Season 5 and I do not recall them being revoked. Not that it matters, Wyconda doesn't have one, haha.

I thought that too, but then couldn't find the reference that said a player could- thank you for reaffirming, I have double checked again and you ARE entitled to a day job, so huzzah! Thanks for pointing that out :)

Iniria nails the creature with an arrow, but even as the words tumble from her mouth she can see the decision is moot - the creature falls face down.

It is bleeding out if the intent is to capture it...

Fingalad has no interest in taking lizard prisoners. He surveys the room.

Perception: 10 + 5 = 15

A brazier of glowing coals sits in the center of this room, its acrid smoke mixing with the ever-present troglodyte stench. A few knives, pokers, and other metal implements lie atop a rusty iron box nearby.

The bleeding troglodyte also carries a key.

Investigating the chest reveals a suit of masterwork studded leather armor, a masterwork buckler, a masterwork rapier, a shortbow with 15 arrows, a scroll of cure moderate wounds, a scroll of invisibility, a wayfinder, and a climber’s kit.

You notice that beyond the room is a cell, and a quick peruse reveals a beaten man, hungry looking, and firmly manacled. The stranger winces as your light catches him, as though bracing himself against another kicking, but as it dawns on him that you aren’t a reptile he immediately opens up ”Hey! Hey! Help! Please get me out of here!”

We found him! Someone help heal him!

Hask summons a ball of acid, and dumps it on the chains holding him down until they break.

Wyconda looks through the scrolls for the one identified as a curative spell and hands it to the man once he is free. "It was in a chest of his belongings, it may be safe to assume he can use it. He is also a bard, if I recall correctly.

"We are glad to find you alive. I am Wyconda. We were sent to aid you in your escape. Are you well enough to move?"

"I'm well enough to move away from this place as fast as Desna's wings can carry me!" he exclaims with enthusiasm whilst devouring some rations. "I was captured by the leader of those Troglodytes, I think I was to be some sort of sacrifice or something dark... a good thing you came along when you did! How soon can we leave?" he questions whilst looking at the stack of lizard corpses.

He looks pretty keen on vacating the tower.

"There's a leader?" Fingalad looks at Inira. "If he's like the rest, we can take him."

-Posted with Wayfinder

Wyconda listens and ponders. "Indeed, we should be able to remove this threat as we did his underlings. We do not want more agents of the Society or, worse still, innocent bystanders to be harmed in this place with this fiend still here. It should not take long. Regather your equipment. We should be out of this place within the hour."
