The Conquest of Ambervale

Game Master Nicos

...?

So what should Vendrick do, since Scavion has abandoned us for Destiny or something again?

Vendrick failed his will save and is running in fear. Is your guys turn.

Hey, wait! Now that the demon is in regular darkness, shouldn't we be seeing him perfectly with our goblin darkvision?

You need to start saying when it's our turn again because otherwise I don't know.

Anywho, summoning a single lantern archon here is pretty pointless. It gets 1 attack at +3 vs Touch...which on an Incorporeal creature is the same as its normal AC, and deals a flat 1d6 damage.

Gore: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20
Damage: 1d6 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12

Bite: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
Damage: 1d4 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15

Claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
Damage: 1d6 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16

Claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20
Damage: 1d6 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

Hoof: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Damage: 1d4 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Hoof: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
Damage: 1d4 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

The creature is now invisible since it vanished used the dim lights, so that would need miss chance rolls. And, the guy have DR also (I think is a rule you know when a creature attacked have DR, the same scenario happened in Blackest scale I don't remember the answer). Anyways, you are right, I should point out when is your guys turn.

Studied Katana: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16
Damage: 1d8 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 15 = 20

:C

Desmond feels his skin being pierced and the wound to freeze.

HAHAHA! - You both hear in your mind.

The attack make the shadow creature to become visible, but it agian disappear in front of you, melting with the darkness of the place.

Touch: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 252d6 ⇒ (5, 5) = 10

-so, you guys turn.

Miss chance last turn: 6d100 ⇒ (25, 72, 95, 23, 84, 1) = 300

"Die already."

Miss Chance this Turn: 6d100 ⇒ (21, 9, 3, 64, 30, 35) = 162

...

Claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
Damage: 1d6 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Demons! The goblins consort with demons! Aldwall must be warned! Vendrick thinks to himself as he whisks down halls.

I think this is our second to last round of Haste.

Miss chance: 2d100 ⇒ (47, 66) = 113
So the first attack misses, the Haste attack doesn't...at least not because of that.

1d20 + 16 ⇒ (6) + 16 = 22
1d8 + 17 ⇒ (8) + 17 = 25

"Whoa whoa, bad touch!"

Desmond prepares to parry the demon if it tries to touch him again.
Parry: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (3) + 16 = 19
Riposte: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (14) + 16 = 30
1d8 + 17 ⇒ (3) + 17 = 20

The dice have forsaken us ;__;

...Have we had Haste this whole time?

Add a +1 to all my hits then. And spare Gores.

Concealments: 2d100 ⇒ (31, 16) = 47

Yeah, I just haven't been making good use of it between moving around and non-Quick Studying. Also keep forgetting about the +1, but that doesn't seem to be making a difference.

I have a doubt, does DR apply before half-damage from incorporeal or after?...anyways

The combined and desperate attacks of you both hurt the creature but it doesn't kill it

touch attack vs sven: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 92d6 ⇒ (6, 6) = 12

THe creature attacks sven but fails and then decides to escape flying at great speed (yes it provokes). So, either you kill it with the AOOs or it escapes (it is way too fast for you so don't even try to chase it).

After two minutes or so, Vraljyiya and vendrick return

Healing hex Sven: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (7, 4) + 5 = 16

AoO: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30

1d100 ⇒ 25

I'm moving at 70 feet right now, are you sure it's too fast?

miss: 1d100 ⇒ 71
AoO: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (4) + 16 = 20
dmg: 1d8 + 16 ⇒ (1) + 16 = 17

F~!% YOU TOO DICE!

"Bah...I hope you wander into another patch of deep darkness and smack your head on something!"

While waiting for Vraljyiya and Vendrick to come back, Desmond speaks up again.

"Uh, Sven...I just thought of something...would simply lighting a torch have helped against that thing?"

I'm moving at 70 feet right now, are you sure it's too fast?

...I forgot about the haste thing, you can chase it

"Uh, Sven...I just thought of something...would simply lighting a torch have helped against that thing?"

Not really...but

"The hall is decorated with a shelf filled with swords, and as with the rest of the place the window and the curtain are closed."

........................................................

To be fair, it's been almost a month since this room was described to us.

I can't argue against that. And actually, there is no miss chance in that last attack, so sven can roll damage

Damage: 1d6 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15

I was about to post the creature actions but those were your AoO, it is your turn.

Sven charges at the thing.

"We can't just let a demon run loose."

Gore: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31
Damage: 1d6 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Whoops, I could've sworn I made a post earlier.

"You're right, that wouldn't be any fun!"

Desmond follows Sven's example, charging at the monster as fast as his human legs can carry him.

Katana: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (6) + 18 = 24
Damage: 1d8 + 15 ⇒ (2) + 15 = 17

With desmond last strike the thing dies and dissolve into nothingness.

So, you reunite again. What do you do?

"Hah! You're going back to the shadow plane in a...shadow...casket!"

"Onward! To the, uh, treasure room or whatever to find the crown."

By the way, vral cast a healing hex on sven.

I saw 16 healed, how much did I take?

not sure ¬¬

He took 10 from this fight.

"I'm a bit concerned that if these goblins are summoning demons we might have stumbled onto some darker plan in the works..."

"We can worry about that later. Once we denounce the king, we'll have a nice little 'chat' with him."

"For now, let's see what's in the king's chamber."

Demons mot likely means lamashtu involvement, Kayiqard have to be involved with a clan favorited by the mother of monsters

"Do you know which clan that might be?"

Clans come and go all the time, hard to keep track of them, but it not hard to find which are the ones favored by lamashtu at the moment, they tend to brag about it.

"Too bad. I was wondering if we could track them to the source. They may need to be wiped out before they stir u more trouble."

THere are not much clans favorited by the mother of monsters at a given time, tracking the source can't be that difficult...a shaman could try to interrogate these corpses for example

You continue to the king's chamber and find no resistance the way. The door is a hallway away.

Desmond looks for traps.

Perc: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

He determines that there are no traps on the part of the floor that he's standing on right now. Maybe.

Sven helps.

Perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19

Sven agrees.

Secure in the safety of the door, and the hallway before it, he strides over and attempts to open it.

THe hallway is safe from traps. The door seems untrapped from the outside but it is locked.

Do we have anyone with Disable Device or should I "disable" the entire door?

Disable it into splinters all over the king's nice rug!

Sven goes all Tasmanian Devil on the door.

Attacks: 6d20 ⇒ (11, 4, 5, 1, 10, 2) = 33

Damage: 3d6 + 33 + 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (3, 4, 3) + 33 + (3, 1) + 10 = 57

Sven smashes the wooden door. There is no one in there (that you are aware of, at least). The king's chamber is a large room decorated with several statues of goblin knights in the walls.

There is a desk, a large bed, a large chest and a table with some papers and a map in there. All of them are of wood, and they were carved with great care, though their design seems rustic.

That was rather easy. Jiltilixti!...the statues will not attack now. - Vraljyiya enters the room and look at a weird tapestry that is mounted in the wall behind the chest -That's new .

The tapestry seems to depict a bottomless and dark chasm looked from above.

Sven checks the chest first.
