The Avalon Chronicles

Game Master lynora

This is a high level rules light game set in a school for magical kids, kinda a mash-up of Soul Eater, Harry Potter, and X-Men. :)

Fei can hear screams coming from the student lounge nearest to Gustav's room as he approaches.
Fei tops the stairs at speed, and hears the screaming from the nearby lounge. Fervently wishing he was not too late, he enters the room prepared for conflict.
A large humanoid crocodile grabs a student and tosses them into a wall with a sickening thud while a humanoid jackal laughs hysterically and smashes a desk across a (hopefully) unconscious student. The lounge is total chaos as students run screaming trying to get away.

Autohypnosis (concentration) check: 1d20 + 32 ⇒ (4) + 32 = 36

Fei slams his open palm into the wall just next to the threshold, sending just enough kinetic energy to make the room shake with a resounding *BOOM*. He raises his voice to further draw the lycanthropes' attention from the other students.

"STOP!!!"

Intimidate Check: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (4) + 25 = 29

Cannot get a single high die roll to save my life today. Ridiculous.... >.<

She smirked.

"Not at all, I was just trying to think of what I would do if I were trying to destroy the world, embrace my not so inner bad guy so to speak."

"And if you were actually bored, we'd all know it, wouldn't we?"


Image

Jiminy looked back and forth between Ephebe and the armored figure, trying to figure out what the heck was happening. He wasn't even sure if Ephebe knew. She was good at faking like she knew everything.


"That's supposed to mean something, I guess?" He asks as he begins to walk toward Ephebe. "Are you sure you aren't confusing me with someone?"

The troublemaker's stop, flinching and beginning to cower from the room shaking and the loud command, but then they stand straight again and grin. Their eyes looks strange, pupils overly dilated. The jackal rushes Fei while the crocodile heads for Enre, completely disregarding their own safety.

Jackal vs. Fei

"Aww, too bad, you noticed I was fishing," she said with a disconcerting giggle.

She moves too quickly to see, appearing again behind the armored person.
Touch:1d20 + 20 ⇒ (10) + 20 = 30
If that works, DC 24 Fort save or be removed from time for 8 rds.


Unable to move away fast enough, the person disappears.

Enre growls after the Crocodile bites him. He places his sword to his face , while doing this the blade seems to go sharper, he than unleashes an attack on the Crocodile.

Fei is able to avoid the jackal's clawed hands, but he underestimates the speed of his opponent by a fraction, and pays for it as the jaws connect.

Flinching slightly as the kinetic force of the jackal's attack is transferred into him, the young monk responds in the only way these creatures seem to understand.

Flurry of Blows (nonlethal), utilizing Dragon Strikes the Waves (bludgeoning damage for all hits this round)

Touch Attack Rolls:
1d20 + 20 ⇒ (19) + 20 = 39; Damage: 1d10 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21

1d20 + 15 ⇒ (20) + 15 = 35; Damage: 1d10 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 19

Ask for and ye shall receive...sheesh. Rolling confirmations:

1d20 + 20 ⇒ (17) + 20 = 37; Extra Damage: 1d10 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17
1d20 + 20 ⇒ (8) + 20 = 28; Extra Damage: 1d10 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21
1d20 + 15 ⇒ (20) + 15 = 35; Extra Damage: 1d10 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16

(I find it disheartening that the dice roller wants me to be violent rather than perceptive....[sigh])
;P


Even with his damage reduction against a non-silver weapon, the crocodile is seriously wounded. The jackal on the other hand is only slowed down a little by Fei's blows. But neither of them appears to feel any pain at all.

"Okay, we don't have much time until he comes back. Let's see how much we can figure out."

Perception:1d20 + 23 ⇒ (12) + 23 = 35

"So, for starters, I don't think it's a good sign that my statue started glowing when I sent that guy outside time."

Jiminy examines the rows of statues and the rest of the room looking for some clue as to what is going on.

perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (13) + 21 = 34


Fieri walks along the row of statues.

"So...why the statues? I get that they're representations, but I don't understand what they're supposed to accomplish."

Hm.

Realizing that he needs time if he is going to be able to deal with any more deranged lycanthropes, Fei switches tactics and goes for the one thing the jackal needs more than anything to keep fighting - his air supply.

Roll to initiate a grapple (utilizing greater grapple in Stone Oni Stance)

1d20 + 29 ⇒ (20) + 29 = 49

Grapple successful. Next is roll to pin by putting a sleeper lock on the jackal.

1d20 + 29 ⇒ (19) + 29 = 48
Confirmation Roll: 1d20 + 29 ⇒ (11) + 29 = 40

The jackal squirmed and clawed, trying and failing to get free of Fei's grasp.

Fei flows around the Jackal's mad attacks like water, then solidifies his hold and grapples his opponent by the neck. He immediately brings the full pressure his strength allows to bear, shutting off his windpipe and trying to cause him to black out.

Pin damage (nonlethal): 1d10 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Fort DC28 for the Jackal to remain conscious.

Feeling that the pulse was unusal even for this place, Khassar retrieves his armor and khopesh out of his portable hole and gears up. He asks the walls to show him where he is needed most.
Appearing intially confused it points him in two differnt directions.
Noticing that both trails are different colors, Khassar flips a coin and ends up heading toward the door.

"Oh, they gave it shinies and everything. Yep, its a trap. Here we go walking into it." Khassar says as he knocks on the door.


As Jiminy looks over the statues, he notices several more have started to glow brighter too. One looks like a sun, the next a mask, and the others are various animals.


Warforged Engineer Alchemist 16/Armiger 16 Champion of Creation

Jim looks around, checking around the statues.

Hmm.... I'm not quite sure.

Perception1d20 + 21 ⇒ (11) + 21 = 32


Jim finds the same thing Jiminy does, and the statue of a wrench he is pretty sure is supposed to represent him.

"Phebes...I think the statues are lighting up when people use their abilities....and something out there is going very wrong."

"Don't feel you need to stand on ceremony. Shall we?" Keme asks, stepping out of the shadows and opening the door, walking in without a second glance at Khassar.

"Love the new look, Time. Really, it's long past time you decided to embrace your inner villain."

Enre seeing that the Crocodile he was fighting was not paying attention to pain turns his blade so that he strikes with the flat of the blade, instead of the edge.

Doing non-lethal

Dice Roller likes my second attack it seems.

"Shut up, Keme. I don't have the patience for you right now. Help us figure out how to stop the destruction of Agartha or go bother someone else."


Warforged Engineer Alchemist 16/Armiger 16 Champion of Creation

How large are the statues, and how large are the mini-walls of force surrounding them?

Jim will inspect any devices that are being used to maintain the walls of force.

Whatever happens, if we get past these walls, we may be able to take the statues, and possibly stop whatever's going on.


Looking around for anything that is maintaining the walls reveals that there isn't anything maintaining. Nothing obvious anyway.

That statues range from 4 to 6 inches tall, with varying width depending on what they are.

** spoiler omitted **

The crocodile is staggered but still standing. He tries to bite at Enre, but his balance seems to be off and he snaps at the air instead.


Imagefemale weredragon (amethyst) gestalt Soulknife17/oracle10/divine gunslinger7

Ephebe steps into the wall, looking to see if there was an adjoining rooom, or at least some way to get at the statues.


Male Unknown 16 Invulnerable Rager/ 16 Hex Crafter Magus

Seeing that the Crocodile is almost down Enre strikes with the flat of his blade once again.

Attack and Damage Roll:

Non Lethal again.

First Attack:1d20 + 34 ⇒ (11) + 34 = 453d6 + 31 ⇒ (6, 1, 1) + 31 = 39

Vai is busy eating a large plate of food. She's seated near the corner, away from the crowds. She doesn't notice as Krays enters, and looks exhausted.

Gustav noticed the blonde from the previous day and sat down next to her. "I have mixed reactions." he began without preamble. "The history and sciences here are adequate, but I have serious doubts about the philosophies and less concrete topics." Gustav looked at Vai to judge her reaction.

Jim opens his chest, and a small trunk pos out, with arms waving about. as it turns around, it snaps to attention, and once it has received mental commands from Jim, it runs off. Commanding it to stay with Ephebe

Jim's hand starts whirring loudly as he begins smashing at the wall of force containing his own statue. Activated Battlefist: +8 STR

Crap. I forgot to post that I was going to try and pick up Cure potions and such for my packmate, so I could be a real ambulance.

Khassar facepalms, opens the door, and walks into the room.


Um, you realize that this room is lined with walls of force, yes? I'm not making this easy for you.
EDIT: This post is for Ephebe, who is trying to talk through them, not Jim.


Warforged Engineer Alchemist 16/Armiger 16 Champion of Creation

If you're talking to me, then yes, I realize that, hence my activation of my battle fist.
Edit: Ah, I see.


Put an edit on my post to clarify before I saw yours.

"You...you're not under attack?" he says, suprised.

Well, she figured it out pretty quick when she walked right into one...was giving you credit for having hidden them a little bit inside the walls for just that effect. :P

"Owww."

"Well, that was...thorough of them."

Vai flinches away from Gustav when he first sits down, almost standing in her surprise. Then she recognizes Gustav and sits back down, relaxing slightly. "I don't really have any philosophy classes, so I'm not sure what you mean. Gustav right?" Vai is clearly uncomfortable with how close Gustav is to her, but she's willfully not making a move away.

Bwahahaha, nothing can stop my walls from being walls!


Hairline fractures appear in the wall of force Jim punches and the wrench glows a little brighter from his efforts.

So 8 rounds = 48 seconds. Looking around and talking and snapping(at Keme) seems like it would take that time up pretty quick. Also, I didn't hide them, you could see the walls when Jiminy opened the door.

"We knew who we would have to work with." The mystery man says as he pops back into time. "I bet you thought we didn't have a Champion on our side too, did you?"


M Advanced tengu 1/2 Black Dragon 16 Gestalt Alchemist/Witch

Khassar mixes a spider climb extract, flies up to a corner of the room, drinks the extract, and sticks to a wall. Looking down on the floor he tries to descern any patterns in the statues.

Perception:1d20 + 29 ⇒ (9) + 29 = 38


Imagefemale weredragon (amethyst) gestalt Soulknife17/oracle10/divine gunslinger7

Ephebe sighed.

"Let me guess. Alton? He of the creepy vibe and the cryptic sayings of doom? Anyways, you did refer to him as a know-it-all, so, you know....kind of limits the options."


Image

"Wait, what? Since when is that guy a Champion? Of what?"


Imagefemale weredragon (amethyst) gestalt Soulknife17/oracle10/divine gunslinger7

"Are you really that slow?" she asked Keme impatiently. "And this is what I have to work with," she said, shaking her head.


Warforged Engineer Alchemist 16/Armiger 16 Champion of Creation

Who, what? Champions? you can hear Jim say as he continues attacking the wall of force.

Attacks+Damage:

Attacks
Battle Fist 1 1d20 + 31 ⇒ (16) + 31 = 47
Battle Fist 2 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (1) + 22 = 23
Battle Fist 3 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (11) + 17 = 28

Battlefist 1 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (11) + 27 = 38
Battlefist 2 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (16) + 22 = 38

Damage
Battle Fist 1 2d8 + 28 ⇒ (4, 8) + 28 = 40
Battle Fist 2 2d8 + 28 ⇒ (8, 8) + 28 = 44
Battle Fist 3 2d8 + 28 ⇒ (5, 7) + 28 = 40

Battlefist 1 1d8 + 28 ⇒ (4) + 28 = 32
Battlefist 2 1d8 + 28 ⇒ (7) + 28 = 35


There does not appear to be any pattern in the way the statues are set up. The cracks from Jim's punches are getting a little bigger though.

A floating screen appears in the room, flickering a bit before Alton appears on it.

"Knowledge, Keme. That includes the knowledge of how to hide a Champion aura." He says with a warm smile. "It's been really useful, knowing all that I do."
Wall of Force: 67 points of damage so far.


Imagefemale weredragon (amethyst) gestalt Soulknife17/oracle10/divine gunslinger7

"And I thought I told you before....there's a big gap between knowledge and understanding. So enlighten us, why don't you?"


"About what, exactly? The statues? My mystery associate there? Why I'm doing all of this?"

"I'm not that forgettable, am I?" Gustav joked with Vai. Hearing Krays, he said "You were the warning? But everything's fine here." Gustav pointed out all the students in the cafeteria. The boy then dug into his steak, pouring steak sauce on it first.
