Wibeke Skarinsdottr |
Wibeke advances forward and uses the superior reach of her fauchard to strike over Ethendril. "Tapping the Nail." She executes a short, tight chopping attack.

Twitnit Flamefinger |
Twitnit shakes his hands to his side, raises them above his head, brings them together as if holding a gun with 1 index finger pointing like a barrel. He lowers the "hand" gun down until the slime seems to line up with his aim, then casts fire ray again. hoping the added theatrics might help him hit this time.
Raising an eyebrow, and speaking in a gruff voice, "Go ahead Slime... Make my day!"
ranged touch: 1d20 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 2 + 1 = 19
damage: 1d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 1 = 4 fire damage
Orophin Telemnarn |
"Yes indeed. Most interesting the creatures we see here... Most interesting indeed."
Orophin seems a little distracted.
" Janira needs our help. Let us press onwards!"
GM Baerlie |
You notice a faint light at the end of the tunnel. The sound of Janira’s oration is close and clear. The light of the surface world above provides a welcome reprieve from the blue and green fungus of the caverns below, and light illuminates a stream whose water is hastened by runoff from a recent storm further up the mountains. A ledge to the west rises up to the nearby forest canopy.
Janira and the Minotaur are not aware of you yet, if you position yourself behind the blue line, you'll have a surprise round
Orophin Telemnarn |
As everyone gets ready to launch an attack, Orophin breaks into song.
"We must save Janira, she's no bore.
Time to drill that Minotaur!"
Inspire courage +1 to hit and +1 to damage.

GM Baerlie |
Elsabeth, Wibeke, Twitnit and Ethendril get closer to the minotaur and prepare to attack as soon as the they have a chance. Orophin and Eroil shoot arrows at the minotaur, but his skin is too strong ant the arrows deflect.

Not sure what my fate is...
Twitnit Flamefinger |
Twitnit moves to give a clear line of sight to the beast. Twitnit waves his hands theatrically, before ending with a pointing finger at the Minotaur.
"অনিশ্চিত, সুন্দর জিনিস, আমি আদেশ!"
Twitnit then opens his mouth as if to scream, but nothing is heard by his allies.

Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Target one creature
Duration instantaneous; see text
Saving Throw Fortitude partial (see text); Spell Resistance yes
You unleash a powerful scream, inaudible to all but a single target. The target is dazed for 1 round and takes 1d6 points of sonic damage per two caster levels (maximum 5d6). A successful save negates the daze effect and halves the damage.

DC 15 Fort = 1/2 damage, no daze
Wibeke Skarinsdottr |
"The Wave Breaks on Rocks." Wibeke executes a sweeping diagonal attack which begins low and finishes high, generating power by pulling up and back with the rear hand, using the lead hand for leverage.
5-foot step south, basic attack.
fauchard 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 161d10 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
GM Baerlie |
Elsabeth tries to hit the minotaur, almost hit her foot. Wibeke attacks the minotaur with her fauchard, making a deep cut in it's belly. Eroil flurrys again and is able to land one hit. Twitnit dazes the minotaur.
DC15 Fort Minotaur: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Janira takes a step back and throws a tanglefoot bag at the minotaur.

Taking a moment of Clarity Eroil shoot two arrows.

I don't think he has hit anything the whole adventure.

Ethendril h'Caramore |
Baerlie, I think I failed an acrobatics check back on the log...I'm not sure what happened to me, but I'm guessing I didn't cross.
Ethendril continues his attempts to clear the log, his heavy equipment impeding his efforts.
acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12
assuming that does it, I double move into melee.
GM Baerlie |
Elsabeth swings at the beast once more, but she still is not able to connect. Eroil shoots two arrows in a very perfect way. The fist one hits the minotaur in it's throat. Orophin is still distracted while singing and his shot goes wide into the field.

Ethendril, sorry I forgot to mention this in the post before. You landed prone on the trunk, because you succeeded the reflex save. And 12 is enough to cross it.
Twitnit Flamefinger |
Twitnit moves again to provide a clear line of sight. Repeating his hand movements and once again ending with a finger pointing at the Minotaur casting ear-piercing scream
"অনিশ্চিত, সুন্দর জিনিস, আমি আদেশ!"
damage: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 + 1 = 8 fire damage
DC 15 fort save = 1/2 damage, no daze
"These are the consequences of bullying people smaller than you!"
Twitnit snickers and clarifies his pun, "I said bull-ying. It's funny cause it looks like a bull. See the horns?"
GM Baerlie |
Wibeke's attack kills the minotaur. She makes a deep wound in it's head, the minotaur falls over and you can feel the ground shaking. A puddle of blood grows around it's head.
Combat over, the minotaur met the true death
"You did it! Great job!" Janira shouts still breathing heavily. You can see she has some wounds, but nothing serious. "Tell me, what did you find in the caves?" she asks.
Twitnit Flamefinger |
Twitnit passes over the notes accounting for the pit, wall pictures, kobolds, gelatinus goo, and now minotaur. Most important though was the information from the gillman explaining the reason for him being at the cave and it's significance. Twitnit also hands Janira a coffee bean.
Orophin Telemnarn |
Orophin approaches the minotaur.
"Sad that such a creature should be cruel. If only the world would make them nobel, not savage."
Still, he smiles at Janira.
"We have found so many interesting things. A gillman pilgrim. And some ancient writings of Aroden detailing some very interesting rituals."
Eroil the Arrow |
"A model of Absolom. Let us show you the model."
We show Janira the cave, the model and tell her about the conversation with the gillmen. I think that should be it to finish our assignement."
GM Baerlie |
Janira does not come with you into the cave. There is one part left out which is optional according to the script. I will 'read' the exploration of the rest of the caves.
Janira refuses to come with you into the cave, her duty was to take you here and back to absalom. It's your confirmation and she does not want to interfere. Back in the cave in the big chamber with the lake and the model of Absalom you can see that the gillman already left the cave. By the time you were fighting the minotaur the new day started. It's daylight again. You take the tunnel to the other side which leads you to another chamber filled with the body of a dead dhampir and three gillmen zombies. The zombies attacked you, but you were able to defeat them. At the dead dhampir you find a written note that details plans to start an army of undead made from the "fish-people" who have been frequenting the cave. You also find an amulet and a ring in the room.
Janira waits for your return at the other entrance and you make your journey back to Absalom without any incidents. Back at the Lodge you deliver your notes and tell Master Shaine what you found. He congratulates all of you for successfully passing the Confirmation and hands a brand new wayfinder to all of you. Master Shaine is proud of you and you are now full Pathfinders.
