The Slumbering Tyrant (Inactive)

Game Master DireMerc

This seems like a good point to remind the GM that I have See Invisibility up

perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (10) + 21 = 31

Not invisible wearing a glamer

Spell craft: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (5) + 20 = 25

Outside of an enchantment to disguise weapons or armor I am unsure what a glamer is in Pathfinder.

Glamer is a general term for all illusion spells that somethings appearance. Once you suspect that a glamer is in place usually by directly interacting with it you can make a will save to disbelieve

Will Save: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19 thought you wanted a spellcraft roll for some reason.

Check, 1, 2, 3. This thing on?

I don't have Spellcraft trained, so been waiting...

I thought there were more of you with ranks in spellcraft but no matter. I'm not 100% sure were we are on init I'm assuming it's back to enemies

The drow woman looks to the fallen orc leader.

"This is a disaster and to make matters worst my lab is under attack. I have to go deal with this. Tiboquoboc try to finish them off I will return once my lab is secure."

She steps back from Ahmose and reaching under her cloak she grabs a strange obsidian amulet which opens a black gateway that she steps trough and she is gone.

The gateway however remains open behind her but it looks like it will close soon.

"Wrecked vile woman speaks your leaving me to fight this battle alone? Well it's not like I can die..." speaks a disembodies voice and a ghostly form rises from the dead orc chief. The ghost that rises up doesn't look anything like the orc you killed leading you to believe he was actually possessing him.

The ghostly orc flies up a bit and cast a spells filling the area with spiked growth

"That should slow you down until reinforcements arrive" he says seeming happy with himself.

updated map

Your go.

Round 8

Zoren utters his command word and levitates above the spikes, he knows the Drow is out of his reach while the Ghost is not...

Zoren attacks the Ghost with his Black Blade Utilize an Arcane Pool Point for Arcane Accuracy Int Bonus to attack for 1 Round. Switch to Fire vs. Ice for the Sword.

Attack #1 1d20 + 12 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 12 + 6 = 30 - Miss % 50 High Hit - Low Miss 1d100 ⇒ 98 - Damage 1d6 + 5 + 1d6 ⇒ (5) + 5 + (6) = 16

Attack #2 1d20 + 7 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 6 = 31 - Miss % 50 High Hit - Low Miss 1d100 ⇒ 97 - Damage 1d6 + 5 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 5 + (1) = 10

Attack #3 1d20 + 12 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 12 + 6 = 33 - Miss % 50 High Hit - Low Miss 1d100 ⇒ 4 - Damage 1d6 + 5 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 5 + (4) = 13

Current AC vs. Evil 21 - Protection from Evil.

Shouldn't Ahmose still be where the drow lady stepped through her d-door?

had to redo the map from an earlier version so I may have been off a little bit it's about right. In any case Ahmose is only a square aay from the portal.

Ok, thanks. Just wanted to make certain. I will post turn after work tomorrow.

Spell craft to know what the gate like effect is: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (5) + 20 = 25

Knowledge Planes or Religion to know what the possessing entity is: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21

@the portal seems strange it looks like it serves like a dimension door but a normal door would have closed already also there is a dark energy coming from that doorway

@The entity is the ghost of a long dead orc shaman it seems

Apologies, but how high up is the ghost?

Ilithial hesitates to see what the others might do. Through the message spell he asks <<Follow, fight, or pull out?>>

@ahomse 10 feet up

Only Zoren acted so far.

Wait... I posted. My character was updated. Damn Post-eater

Z'dim answers <<I'm following>>. With that he focuses for a moment and rises into the air. Flying over the spikes and around the ghost, he skips into the portal.

The decision made, at least for him, Ilithial double moves into the portal as well. As he moves he sends to the group << The Portal. Now.>>

Oki. A lot happened while I was away, so quite lost as to where she is and who is alive or not.

She strikes at her foe hoping to bring it down.

Add flanking bonus +2 if necessary

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (6) + 21 = 27 If needed.

Dagger 1: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (20) + 16 = 36
Dagger 2: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (7) + 16 = 23

Damage 1: 1d3 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12
Damage 2: 1d3 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

If flanking to allow sneak attack. Apply what is allowed
Sneak attack damage: 5d8 ⇒ (7, 6, 3, 1, 3) = 20
Bleeding: 5 HP per round, Heal Check of 15 to stop
Condition applied: Bewildered -2 on AC, -6 against rogue.
Slow Reaction: no AoO allowed
Pressure point: 1 Dex point damage. 15 Heal check to remove.

She has this ability: Twist the Knife. You gain a +1 bonus on attack and damage rolls against grazed, wounded, or critical enemies.

But, a stinking ghost! I could have punched him in his stupid ghost mouth!

The angry 1/2 orc states before following the others.

It may follow us... Why would it not?

Zoren is a bit shocked that his allies would enter such a portal but knows that he must follow suit lest he be left here alone and without a quick escape at the moment...

That will be next round...

If your on the grown spiked growth deals you 1d4 damage per 5 feet you move and you move at half speed

With a +38 jump, can Ahmose just jump up and into the portal? 10' is DC 40. He can spend a Ki for another +20.

When jumping up, you normally get your height and reach to grab a ledge. I'm not sure what getting mostly through the portal will do.

If the portal is 15' up or less, he can just jump right into it.

Cursing the dispelling of his magical flight, Ilithial will jump what he can and take damage from the rest.

Acrobatics with running start: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

@Ahmose You would have no problem jumping into the portal it is only 5 feet away from him and is on the ground.

@Z'dim you moves into it by flying with no problem I will let you know what happens soon.

@Shady you would be able to reach the portal this turn as well.

@Ilithial (haste gives you +4 on your jump check) The distance to the portal is around 10 space (100 feet) from the portal. The jump would cover 20 feet he would take 6d4 damage walking on spikes and reach the portal. Assuming you proceed let me know and you can roll the 6d4 damage.

@everyone this is a very ballsy move but it could pay off bit time assuming it doesn't kill you all.

The orc ghost watches as several of you run into the portal.
"You cannot be serious...Are they mad?" he says laughing. He casts a spell defensivly and then reaches for Zoren (casting poison)
touch: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (12) + 12 = 24 fort save dc 23 negates. If you fail you take 1d3 con damage per round for 6 rounds getting a new save each round to negate further damage.

Next round. Assuming everyone but Zoren entered the portal Zoren is up.

Round 9

Zoren is struck by the spell - Fortitude save 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 12 + 2 = 16 - Con damage - 1d3 ⇒ 1.

Zoren grimaces in pain as the poison courses through his body, using the ceiling of the tent he works his way across to the portal above the spikes on the floor and drops in...

Con = 15/16.

Sharp Pointy things: 6d4 ⇒ (3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 3) = 14

Oki. Will do the move action into portal with daggers ready to strike, instead of the attack done.

Alright so the portal in questions is a very special portal because it crosses into the void on your way to your destination exposing you to powerful waves of negative energy damaging the living and healing the undead.

Any living being takes
damage: 10d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 2, 6, 1, 1, 4, 2, 2, 6) = 33
negative energy damage with a will save dc 20 for half.
(unless your immune to negative energy damage)

You come out the other side (hopefully alive) and find yourself in a lab.

The drow woman is nowhere to be seen but there is a skeleton wearing the same clothing as her in the room. You come to realise that she is a lich.

The room itself looks like a place of Arcane study. The south-east corner of the room is sealed off by a prismatic wall. and to the west there is a set of closed double doors.

"You...What?" says the bewildered lich as you pop into the room.

Go ahead and post your actions since you caught her off guard.

will: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12

Will Save: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

Deathless Armor, high is good for me: 1d20 ⇒ 18

The wizard's armor flairs and the negative energy flows around Ilithial not harming him. Note that the armor would have protected him from 10 points of the 16 anyway but the protective ability kicks in 25% of the time, preventing all negative energy damage.

Going to delay a little to see what others that come through do. Plus I need to go back and review to see if any energy type has not been resisted by the lich or at least not tried.

Edit -I went back and reviewed the combat. But I am not sure you posted enough information on the energy attacks. Lich was hih with fire snake but you did not mention if she took damage. Also hit with Acid, but unsure if she seemed resistant to it. I do know she resisted electricity. Can you provide any additional information?

Name: Shady

Upon entering the portal feeling the energy enrgy of the portal she immediately triggers realignment of her body to gain the benefit of negative energy to heal. Heal 33 HP

Light and Dark

Once per day as an immediate action, a wayang can treat positive and negative energy effects as if she were an undead creature, taking damage from positive energy and healing damage from negative energy. This ability lasts for 1 minute once activated.

Seeing the skeleton form of the lich, she lets out a curse in her native language, Damned skeleton. No vital organs to strike.

Thinking to herself, All I be able to do is to provide flanking for others, as daggers are poor against bones.

will save: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26 half damage
deathless armor, high good: 1d20 ⇒ 11 Net 6 points

Z'dim telekinetically hurls a sling bullet at the undead and then moves in.

attack, tk blast: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34
damage, Bludgeoning, magic, empowered: 5d6 + 17 ⇒ (6, 6, 2, 2, 6) + 17 = 39 58 damage!

as a note undead are not immune to sneak attack in pathfinder they are however immune to ability drain and ability damage

Wincing a bit, Ahmose moves to the undead, aiming a kick to its knee.

unarmed strike kick: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (16) + 16 = 32
damage magic cold iron lawful: 1d10 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

free trip: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (9) + 16 = 25

If I have amove action...

The Monk then centers his battered and (more than) bruised body, appearing ethereal.

Ki metabolism

Forgot to make the save for Shimmer, Ilithial's familiar as they went through the portal. She is inside his deathless armor at the moment. Do you need a separate save?

Ilithial will move so as to catch the lich in a piercing meta magic acidic burning hands.

Acid burning hands: 10d4 + 24 ⇒ (2, 3, 2, 3, 1, 1, 1, 4, 2, 1) + 24 = 44 DC 19 for half

SR if needed: 1d20 + 14 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 14 + 5 = 22

Zoren - Fortitude Save 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 12 + 2 = 32

Zoren's body spasms as he crosses the barrier but he is alive, for now...

Fortitude Save vs. Poison 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 12 + 2 = 33

Surprise Round

Switch weapon damage to Sonic. Flank. Zoren opts to end his Vampiric Touch spell not knowing what effect it would have on a Lich.

Attack #1 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 12 + 2 = 26 Damage 1d6 + 5 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 5 + (4) = 10

Attack #2 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 2 = 18 Damage 1d6 + 5 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 5 + (6) = 14

Attack #3 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 12 + 2 = 25 Damage 1d6 + 5 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 5 + (4) = 10

Name: Shady

Oki, she move into a flanking position and strike.

She moves behind the lich and strikes with her daggers, hoping to disrupt the energy force keeping the bones together.

Add flanking bonus +2 if necessary

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (7) + 21 = 28 If needed.

Dagger 1: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (5) + 16 = 21
Dagger 2: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (10) + 16 = 26

Damage 1: 1d3 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12
Damage 2: 1d3 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

If flanking to allow sneak attack. Apply what is allowed
Sneak attack damage: 5d8 ⇒ (7, 1, 5, 7, 8) = 28
Condition applied: Bewildered -2 on AC, -6 against rogue.
Slow Reaction: no AoO allowed
Pressure point: 1 Dex point damage. 15 Heal check to remove.

She has this ability: Twist the Knife. You gain a +1 bonus on attack and damage rolls against grazed, wounded, or critical enemies.

The lich is not tripped and her damage reduction negates a lot of the incoming damage.

The lich defensibly cast and conjures up a shield of blue flames that surrounds her body and unleashes a quickened ray of enfeeblement at Zoren.

touch/str drain: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 281d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11 Fort dc 17 for half.

Chill fire shield anyone attacking her in melee takes 1d6+11 fire damage for each attack.

Your go again.

Did the acid damage seem to go through?

Yep it did, I did forget the reflex thought and just counted 44 damage. Lemme fix that.
reflex save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

Hmm same result.

Did it seem to take the magic and bludgeoning damage that Ahmose and I did? If not, can we figure out what else it needs?

Z'dim refocuses and hurls another empowered blast at it.

attack: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (13) + 17 = 30
damage, magic, bludgeoning, empowered: 5d6 + 17 ⇒ (3, 2, 1, 6, 4) + 17 = 33 49 damage.

Seeing that acid hurts the creature he uses his Admixture school power to once again turn a buring hands into Acid. After the spell he invisibly and stealthfully moves to not be an easy target.

Acid burning hands: 10d4 + 24 ⇒ (4, 2, 4, 2, 3, 4, 3, 3, 2, 3) + 24 = 54 DC 19 for half

Stealth: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (9) + 23 = 32

NOTE: Everyone should still have Resist Fire 20 on them unless it was dispelled by that greater dispel earlier.

I take Duskade attack was ineffective.

Round 1

Zoren is battered and bruised and weakened.

Fortitude save vs. Ray 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 12 + 2 = 17

Zoren backs away from the shield as far as he can get and readies himself to cast a spell from afar when he has reset himself.

Free action spend Arcane Pool point to increase AC by +6. Current AC vs. Lich = 27.

Full withdraw action.
