Game Master GM Aarvid

Perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19

The sounds of boots grow closer.
Sidius and his cohorts strike the guards with zeal.

red will: 1d20 ⇒ 3

Is the air blast a ranged touch attack? I could not find it. It hits if a touch, but misses if a regular attack.

Red steps north and swings at Kenji halberd: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 for slash: 1d10 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11

Pink steps south and swings at Arcos halberd: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 5 + 2 = 24 for slash: 1d10 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 miss: 1d100 ⇒ 44

Blue reloads.

Green shoots at blurry Arcos
crossbow: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14 for crossbow: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Commands barked from outside and above.

They are on the ground floor. Rally and DESTROY them! NOW!!!

All shots and swings go wide. Coming up on perhaps end of some round/level buffs (haste?)

AC 16 with haste.

Kenji attacks the opponent in red armor with lethal force and then 5 ft steps to the pink guard after the first opponent has dropped.

”Thry are so many!!“ Kenji shouts.

Kenji will use misfortune revelation as an immediate action on the first attack against him that is rolling 10 or higher on the dice roll.
MISFORTUNE (Ex): At 1st level, as an immediate action, you can force a creature within 30 feet to reroll any one d20 roll that it has just made before the results of the roll are revealed. The creature must take the result of the reroll, even if it’s worse than the original roll. Once a creature has suffered from your misfortune, it cannot be the target of this revelation again for 1 day.

Sidius cals out, "Arcos, look out. There's a puddle of something behind you."

Do I know what it is?

Knowledge (Nature): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14
Knowledge (Planes): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12
Knowledge (Arcana): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12

The elemental attacks the nearest guard, crackling with energy as it does.

Slam: 1d20 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 5 + 3 = 21 for 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 Plus Electric: 1d3 ⇒ 2

Sidius steps forward to get past the wall and hurls an evil eye at the guard fighting Lubella (pink), then cackles to prolong the magic. (-4 to AC for 8 [9] rounds - Will DC 19 reduces to 2 -- the cackle prolongs the hex on red, also)

Aeria fires another blast of air at the guard to the north.

Air Blast: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 1 = 24 for 2d6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2, 4) + 3 + 1 = 10

"Brakisi, you should move away from the stairs," warns Talvek as he listens to the approaching sounds of boots and the shouted commands. "Looks like another tour group is coming."

The tiefling then focuses on the guard in his immediate vicinity, trying to finish them off.

Attack red: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (6) + 17 = 23 Damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11
Attack red: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (13) + 17 = 30 Damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

Lubella waded into the midst of the enemeies, prioritizing dodging the enemy attacks over offense as she lashed out with the flat of her blade.

If/when pink drops, she'll switch to green.

AC 24 with fighting defensively.

Had late business dinner tonight . Will update tomorrow.

Kenji hacks down red with two powerful swings, killing the man on the spot. With a step, he then finishes off the pink guard near Lubella.

Sidius tries to recognize what he saw, but it escapes any knowledge he has acquired.

Sparky glides over Lubella and slams Orange for a bit of a jolt.

UHHHHG! Get away!

The evil eye is switched to Lubella's orange foe as well.

will: 1d20 ⇒ 10

Aeria hits blue with an air blast...

Redirecting Lubella on Orange from Pink...

Lubella spins and twirls and slaps down with two shots and the last slash on green.

Arcos still can go...and Talvek, I will keep your rolls, but need to pick a new target...blue or green or other. Voices up the stairs and to the north.

Ganging up on green.

Talvek strides south to help with a quick stab on green.

using the first roll which hits
. Arcos?

Arcos contemplates his next action and steps away from the unseen threat Sidius mentioned.

Blue shoots his reloaded crossbow at Sidius to avoid shooting into the massed melee.
crossbow: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 for crossbow: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8 miss

Green steps west to avoid too many foes and swings his halber at Arcos.

Purple shoots at Arcos.
crossbow: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18 for crossbow: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9 miss

Yellow drops crossbow and moves up to swing at Lubella with his own Halberd.
halberd: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13 for slash: 1d10 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10 miss

A blob of a puddle moves up to Kenji and reaches out to the holy warrior with a pair of appendages.

One misses and one hits and grabs him

Kenji hit for 16, save vs poison, and is grabbed.
New Perception checks from everyone.

From upstairs, commanding voice. There are bootsteps outside the double doors to the east.

RALLY!!! Down the stairs. Take the main floor!!!

Trying to drop the guards attacking Kenjii: I'm having a hard time keeping track.

Is Lubella noticing any unseen enemies?

fort vs. poison: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14

Kenji moans when he feels the poison enter his system. He punches the creature with his spiked gauntlet.

Primary Cold Iron Spiked Gauntlet, trait +1, divine favor +2, haste +1, power attack-2/+4, grappled -2: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 1 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 1 + 1 + 2 - 2 = 171d4 + 5 + 2 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 2 + 4 + 1 = 15

Kenji will use misfortune revelation as an immediate action on the fort save vs. poison of an ally should they roll 9 or lower on their fort save.

Kenji then touches himself to heal.

lay on hands 1/7, fey foundling +4, planar infusion +8: 2d6 + 4 + 8 ⇒ (3, 3) + 4 + 8 = 18

Noticing the blob currently attacking Kenji, Talvek tries to figure out what it is.

Knowledge dungeoneering (?), free inspiration: 1d20 + 12 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 12 + (4) = 20

"I don't think it's healthy to step in that, Scarab."

the tiefling sidles sideways with his back to the wall, using his preternaturally elongated arms to reach Lubella's current target.

"You lot should really appreciate my colleague's kindness here, she really goes to great lengths to not kill you. The least you could do in return is surrender."

Attack green: 1d20 + 17 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 17 - 4 = 30 Damage, NL: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
Attack green: 1d20 + 17 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 17 - 4 = 15 Damage, NL: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

Lubella’s small blade flashes thrice and drops yellow unconscious then continues to drop green.

Kenji feels his muscles tighten as the slime touching his skin begins to numb him. He cannot move at all.

cannot remember if you still have a reroll…so will hold while you check. Might be good time for it.

Talvek tries to get a good look at the transparent creature grabbing Kenji

perception : 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34

He recognizes it a slithering tracker and worse yet, another just entered the room from the doorway.

holding updates if Kenji or Talvek need to adjust actions…

Thanks! Yes, still have my reroll - fort: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26

As Lubella seemed to be needing no help with the guards, Talvek shifts his attention to the ooze instead, poking it with his rapier from a relatively safe distance.

"Get away from it, Scarab! It's slow, but it can be deadly!"

Changing my target to the slithering tracker and keeping my rolls above.

Kenji fights off the paralysis with divine intervention

will apply your previously stated actions tonight.

Kenji punches at the transparent blob holding him. His efforts manage to break the thing down into a puddle of water onto the ground.

Sparky rushes the guard in the corner, while Sidius casts a web up at the top of the stairs - the thick, sticky strands filling the hall and onto the floor.

It's a spread, so it'll take its shape even around corners, so I imagine that'll slow any pursuers from above.

Charge (Metal Mastery): 1d20 + 5 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 5 + 3 + 2 = 25 for 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 Plus shock: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Sparky dashes forward and chips aware at another guard.

Sidius, can you show where you wanted to have the web spread?

If the door upstairs is closed, I won't be able to do it, because the spread would come around the wall and goop up the party -- the original thought was to cast it up on the roof (before Sidius moved) -- so the radius would start up there -- leaving enough to come down the stairs, but not come around the wall to get us.

will assume the door is open. Mist was still upstairs so could not target too far outside.

Ok, that works then. Excellent.

Arcos considers his next action in the chaos of the moment (delays).

Blue runs to the north to another doorway and yells.

THEY HAVE CLOGGED THE STAIRS WITH SOME WEBBY STUFF, SIR. SEND REINFORCEMENTS!

He stands ready.

Purple falls back and shoots at lubella before dropping his xbow and hefting his halberd.

crossbow: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 for crossbow: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6 miss (misses image too I believe?)

A slithering puddle approaches Sidius and tries to slam him with an appendage.

slam: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23 for slam: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 plus grab and poison DC18 vs paralysis

grab: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20 vs CMD

The double doors fly open as two more guards stand ready with a large winged drake or lizard with a barbed tail, mounted by a commanding armored knight brandishing a flaming greatsword.

He bellows.

WHAT IS ALL THIS!?? THIS IS ALL? YOU GUARDS ARE WORTHLESS! WHY MUST I ALWAYS HAVE TO SAVE YOUR MISERABLE HIDES? WHY? YOU ARE LUCKY I DO NOT FEED YOU TO MY FAITHFUL STEED!

He turns to your group, calling through the webs.

SURRENDER NOW YOU REBEL FOOLS OR FACE A FATE WORSE THAN DEATH!!!
Elulae!!! I have playthings for you!!!

You smell Sulphur and ash and have foreboding as a female cackle is heard to the north and above.

Playthings? For me? I am coming. Do any of them have tatoos? I hope so. It has been too long, Commander. Too long. Muahahahh!

Save needed by Sidius...I believe haste and some other buffs come down this round...

Lubella cast Haste using her metamgic rod of extend, so the duration should be 16 rounds.

Which is the puddle on the map grappling Sidius? Lubella is going to attack it.

Monster Knowledge (puddle grappling Sidius), Good Hope: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 2 = 25

Ok, on the extend - that helps :)
The puddle North of Sidius is grappling him. But is transparent and difficult to see (she has not seen it yet) but can tell something grabbed Sidius

What square does Lubella need to move into to attack the puddle? Does she need to make a Perception check first?

Lubella cried out, "Something is has grabbed Sidius! Arcos, can you step out of the way so I can strike it?"

Delaying

[b]"They are trying their best, sir, please do not be so angry,"[b] Talvek shouts at the commander, then winks at the closest guard that is still standing. Although he is trying his best to maintain high spirits, the drake mount and the mysterious Elulae are making the tiefling a little apprehensive.

Noticing the gelatinous thing grabbing at Sidius and feeling the surge of quickening magic, Talvek stabs at the creature twice in quick succession.

Attack: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (14) + 17 = 31 Damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
Attack: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (20) + 17 = 37 Damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14 Alas, it's an ooze

Arcos steps around the puddle, striking at it as best he can.

Attack v Touch: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 10 - 2 = 22
Damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Talvek and Arcos both land strikes on the blob holding Sidius…hurting it but not yet releasing.

Lubella dannced forward and tried to destroy the puddle attacking Sidius.

Not fighting defensively, so AC 21.

With her first stroke, Lubella cuts down the pesky blob and it drips down into a puddle at Sidius’s feet.

Sidius feels himself stiffening, but he shakes it off, despite the thick puddle holding him.... And then smiles as his companions cut him free. "Thanks for that," he says before casting a spell at the newcomers.

Confusion, DC 19, should get everyone beyond the double doors

Sparky rushes the blue guard, and Aeria fires a blast at the knight's mount

Slam (v blue): 1d20 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 5 + 3 = 20

keep in mind that 20’ of webs is total cover vs ranged attacks. Line of effect should be ok for spell area target.

Sidius, having broken free casts a spell through the thick webs into the courtyard…

kenji?

Sorry, didn't count that - redirect the air blast to blue, should have clear line there.

Sparky and Aeria take shots at blue to full effect.

will advance tonight …

Kenji readies to attack any foe moving within his reach...

The blue soldier opens the door and moves back...

Two more crossbowmen emerge and take pot-shots at the closest targets.

On Arcos crossbow: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 for crossbow: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
On Kenji crossbow: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17 for crossbow: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Close behind, the smell of burning and ash is evident as a winged female.

Elulae herself looks almost like an albino angel—
slim and androgynous, with pale skin, snow-white
wings, pink eyes, and a serene expression on her face
even in battle.

Oh my badness, they really have been so busy, Lucian darling.
Although, I cannot play properly with all of them at once. Much too distracting.
Let us thin them down a bit first. she motions and a blast of unholy energy smites the party. Then flies up to the ceiling to better train her flaming bow.

Blast unholy: 5d8 ⇒ (6, 5, 6, 1, 3) = 21 DC19 WILL for half or quarter if neutral...sickened otherwise.

Purple reloads

The commanding knight shakes his head at the spell then spurs his mount and both take to the air. He calls out to the female.

I DO NOT CARE HOW YOU *^&#!$# PLAY!
JUST DO YOUR JOB AND DEAL WITH THEM!!!

The two unfortunate guards before the doubledoors are not as lucky and have confused looks on their faces.

Both smack themselves hard on their own foreheads with their crossbows.

Everyone (including elemental and familar) make DC19 WILL save vs unholy damage.
I do not know if Kenji being partial outsider would take more...will assume not.

AC 23 with fighting defensively.

Where exactly is the guy with the flaming sword, and where is his mount?

Kenji takes the full sickening force of the unholy spell. But lays hands upon his burns and injuries to recover most of it. He still will suffer the after effects even as he grows to large size.

Lubella dodges the brunt of the blast, and avoids the sickness.

She is able to tell this flying creature is a Erinyes, and a strong one at that Kn:Planes DC19 - so she gets one question/resistances/special etc

From their new position to the north, the pair can see the knight and mount appear to have lifted off and flew to the south.

"Oof, that smarts," Talvek complains as the winged woman blasts them with sickening magic.

Knowledge planes, free inspiration: 1d20 + 12 + 1d6 ⇒ (16) + 12 + (2) = 30 Special attacks or abilities please

His pace quickened by magic, Talvek advances past Kenji, projecting an elongated arm - and only slightly wobbly - upwards in an attempt to strike the erinyie.

Attack: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34 Damage, mithral: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

immune to fire poison, resists acid, cold, spells
Special attacks/abilities: spells, entangle rope, flame bow. Constant true seeing

Talvek dashes up to reach the devil and score a hit, but his blade finds some partial resistance.

”Oh a feisty one. You may be my new favorite toy. “

Lubella told her comrades, "The flying ceature is an Erinyes: imune to fire and poison; resistance to acid, cold and spells."

Hopefully Arcos is acting, and not just skipping his turn.

Will (Sidius) - Good Hope: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 9 + 2 = 28 10 for me
Will (Aeria) - Good Hope: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 5 + 2 = 24 5 for Aeria
Will (Sparky): 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (5) + 0 = 5 Bye, Sparky
