The Tomb of Horrors Part 1 (4e) - Group 1

Game Master Rev Rosey

Darwyn - I took the liberty of moving you to O16 rather than R21 which would have left you in the middle of a tapestry, but do tell me if you really want to be there.

Darwyn staggers out of the shadowy zone sucking his life away and blocking his sight, but can find no words powerful enough to affect the Shrine.

Darion stands and draws on his inner strength to help him regain focus.

MAP

Shadowfell Taint. Zone. Effect: squares within the zone are totally obscured and block line of sight for creatures that do not have darkvision. Creatures starting their turns in the zone take 10 damage.

To end encounter, whenever Darwyn hits a target, that target grants CA to him and all allies to end his next turn.

You can attack the tapestries. AC29, all defenses 27, 10hp per section.

Shrine has an aura 3. Undead and shadow allies within the aura gain a +2 to all defenses.

Samson - 10 ongoing slowed to start next turn (First tapestry save - immobilised. Second fail - pulled into tapestry)
Tapestries
Norrin - used second wind; used AP; 10 damage at start of turn, no LoS and in totally obscured zone unless you have darkvision (Shadowfell zone)
Nighthaunt Shrine - BLOODIED; marked by Lyan; -2 to attack rolls to end Levana's next turn; -2AC (se); Norrin's Quarry; -4 ranged and area to end Lyan's next turn
Lyan (darkvision) - used AP

Move:to Q13
Standard:Direct the Strike, Ranged 5
Target: Norrin
Effect: The target makes a basic attack as a free action against an enemy of your choice that you can see and is within 10 squares of you.
[b]Minor:[b]Inspiring Word on Darwyn (1,1,3) plus healing surge

Save vs Tapestries: 13

Samson - Norrin doesn't have LoS on the Shrine as he's in the Shadowfell zone. Also, moving to Q13 still leaves you vulnerable to tapestry attack. Would you like to rethink?

I meant Q14. My eyes arn't working today. Thank you for letting me change it... and we can switch that to Lyan. I've been trying to give the attack to whomever is after me, just for flow purposes. I forgot to check where Norrin was...

1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 311d10 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15 Smack!

Samson gets himself clear of the disabling fabric and enables Lyan to dissipate a little more of the Shrine.

Clearly unaware that they are losing, the tapestries still seek new victims, sending a treacherous threads around Darion's feet.

Tapestries v Ref. On hit target takes 10 ongoing damage and is slowed (se). First failed save - immobilised. Second failed save - drawn into tapestry.
1d20+18=34. Hits.
Darion immediate reaction Athletics: 1d20+8=12. Oops. Sorry, Darion.

Samson
Tapestries

Shivering, Norrin stumbles out of the cold, taking 10 damage then moving to L15.

With perfect aim he fires two arrows at the Shrine.

Twin Strike + Perfect Aim 1d20 + 17 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 17 + 2 = 34 vs AC; 1d10 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 2 = 9 damage.
Twin Strike part 2 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (5) + 17 = 22 vs AC; 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8 damage.

As Norrin's first arrow pulls apart further shreds of Shrine, the creature points a long finger at Darwyn. Shadow explodes outward from the bard, dragging at the life-force of him and his companions and pulling some part of it back into the Shrine.

Life Leak (Fort). Burst 5 within 10, centred on bloodied enemy. Enemies only. Half damage on miss. Shrine (and allies if they were still alive) gains 20 temp hp.

7 damage to Darion and Lyan (resist factored in)
8 damage to Samson
17 damage to Norrin and Darwyn.

Moving the hideous veil to fall over Darwyn and Norrin again, it turns its baleful gaze on Lyan. The hobgoblin splays back into the nearest tapestry.

Terrifying Visage (Will). On hit target is pushed one and knocked prone.
1d20+14=26. Hits.
2d6+5=15 psychic
15 damage to Lyan.

Damage totals this turn:
7 Darion
8 Samson
17 Norrin
17 Darwyn
22 Lyan

Samson and Lyan both get OAs on Shrine.

Lyan's necrotic resist is 15, so I make it 17 total, at 63/102.

OA: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 311d10 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Stand, throw flail at Shrine. 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 151d10 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Lyan, cursing fluently in his own tongue -- and in elven, for good measure -- stands and hurls his flail at the shrine. The weapon returns to his hand having done nothing, but the hobgoblin is finally adjacent to a drapery.

The Shrine turns a mild, admonitory glance at Lyan as the hobgoblin increases its knowledge of elven swearwords.

Levana finds her form in style as the Shrine shrinks back from the thousands of biting insects that suddenly surround it.

Delaying Darwyn and Darion. Go ahead Samson.

Target: Shrine
Attack: 8+18=26 vs. AC
Hit: 2d10(6,6) + 11 =23 damage. Until the end of your next turn, all of your allies gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls against the target.
Minor:Adaptive Stratagem, Close burst 10
Target: Darion
Effect: Until the end of your next turn, the ally gains his or her choice of a power bonus to damage rolls equal to your Intelligence modifier or a power bonus to saving throws equal to your Charisma modifier.(both = +3)

Darwyn moves around the firepit to T17. Taking two move actions.

Move: 14Q
Standard: Holy Strike
Attack: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (15) + 19 = 34
Damage: 1d10 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18

Samson's attack misses, but he does his best to help Darion out of his predicament with the fabric.

You have a +3 bonus from Samson to either your damage roll or your save until the end of Samson's turn. Where would you like it applied?

Tapestries

Plagued by the cold, Norrin escapes the darkness by moving to O20. 10 damage at start of turn.

The ranger continues to launch volley after volley at the Shrine.

Twin Strike @Shrine 1d20+17=27 vs AC; 1d10+5=11 damage.
1d20+17=29 vs AC; 1d10+5+2d6=12 damage.

Apologies for late update. Been taking classes all day and then watching son be called young Lenny Bruce by Elliot Randall at local talent show :) So chuffed :)

Norrin's second arrow pinks the Shrine which responds by shifting itself further into the firepit and dropping the baleful zone over Darion and Samson. It turns it's mournful face towards Darwyn once more as it draws life-force from the companions to restore itself.

Life Leak recharge: 1d6=6. Yes.

Moves zone. Shift. AP to use Life Leak again.

38/81 HP, bloodied

On being hit by the tapestry, Hobgoblin Resilience for an immediate save. Also, necrotic resist is 15, so 0 damage from Life Leak. 1d20 ⇒ 16

Lyan shakes off the tapestry's embrace, hardly noticing, and promptly pursues the shrine, leaping into the draining taint.

Move to R15. Psionic Anchor vs Shrine AC 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (15) + 16 = 312d10 + 8 ⇒ (8, 5) + 8 = 21 As a free action at the end of the target’s turn, you can teleport the target to a square adjacent to you (save ends).

41/90 HP, bloodied

Forgot to make Shrine's save v -1AC: 1d20=17. Saved.

Lyan steps into the fire pit and suffers for it, despite his amazing resilience.

Firepit delivers 2d10 fire and necro damage if you enter or start your turn in it. 2d10=15 fire (and non-effective necro) to Lyan.

His blow slams into the Shrine, imposing a mental bond that will force the creature to remain close to him.

Bumping for Levana.

Grappling Spirits, 1d20+21=31 vs Shrine's AC, 1d10+20=27 damage and slowed and can't shift until end of its next turn.

Bloodied though she is, Levana remains a force to be reckoned with as she calls on the surrounding spirits of the place and commands them to attack the Shrine. More shreds float away from its substance.

Darwyn uses hideous laughter 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29 vs. Will; 3d8 + 8 ⇒ (4, 4, 3) + 8 = 19 psychic damage, and the target can’t take opportunity actions and takes a –2 penalty to attack rolls (save ends both).

If it misses it does half damage, and the target can’t take opportunity actions until the end of your next turn.

HP: 22/84; Surges 9/10; Dailies used hideous laughter; Encounter Used 1/2 majestic word

Darwyn's laughter in the midst of his pain seems to depress the already gloomy Shrine even more. Further wisps melt away, leaving the barest traces of its form as the bard mocks it from a distance, puncturing all its pretensions.

Darion shakes himself free of the encroaching fabrics.

The hanging carpets leave him and turn their attentions to Samson, hoping to catch the warlord off guard. They have some success, although he avoids the worst of the damage inflicted by them.

Samson - thanks for letting me know. Have a great holiday weekend.

Battered and unappreciated, the Shrine dissipates under Norrin's onslaught. With the Shrine's demise, the horrible zone also vanishes.

Stay in init order until you're out of the room and saved against anything you need to save against.

Suiting actions to words, the hobgoblin steps nimbly out of the firepit toward the far wall, pausing to watch the others while he takes a brief respite.

Move to R10, Second Wind. 63/102

Lyan gets clear and finds a safe spot to give himself a breather.

To end encounter, whenever Darwyn hits a target, that target grants CA to him and all allies to end his next turn.

You can attack the tapestries. AC29, all defenses 27, 10hp per section.

Levana - BLOODIED
Samson - +2 all defenses to start next turn (used second wind); slowed to start next turn and 10 ongoing damage (se) (tapestry, see effects above for failed saves)
Darwyn - BLOODIED
Darion - used second wind;
Tapestries
Norrin - used second wind; used AP
Lyan (darkvision) - used AP; +2 all defenses to start next turn (used second wind)

Perception Check, 1d20+19=22

Levana will search the room for anything of value while avoiding the dangerous Tapestries.

Levana thinks that the food here looks outstandingly appetising. Samson moves to join her, but cannot break completely away from the tapestries.

Samson - save v tapestry effect. 1d20=4 ... umm. Sorry Samson, you're now immobilised and if you fail the next save will be pulled into the nearest tapestry.

Happy Thanksgiving to those that celebrate it.

Darwyn catches his breath, then follows after the others with a move action.

I'm making the not-very-rash assumption that you're all avoiding the tapestries. If anyone has help they can give Samson, now would be a good time to do it. He's failed one save and is immobilised. If he fails again, he'll get sucked in.

Perhaps if we inflict enough damage on the section of tapestry afflicting Samson, we could free him before his makes his second save?

Rev, does Norrin have line-of-effect to the section that's responsible for our warlord's predicament?

Norrin, I've used it already to help Darwyn.

I'll move over in the direction of Samson avoiding the tapestries. Anywhere is fine.

Keeping an anxious eye on Samson, Darion moves closer to his dragonborn friend.

Destroying it seems a reasonable enough way to help. I've highlighted the relevant section in yellow. It has partial cover from the firepit at the moment for Norrin. (-2 to attack rolls against it).

EDIT: Since Lyan and I are equidistant to the tapestry, I can apply Prime Shot for +1 to ranged attacks.

Norrin moves around the firepit to Q14 and lines up a shot with meticulous care.

Sure Shot 1d20+17+1=26 vs AC; Effect: You can reroll the attack roll but must use the second result.

Despite standing almost in front of the tapestry, the arrow flies into the ceiling.

Reroll: Sure Shot 1d20+17+1=29! vs AC; 3d10+10=15 damage.

GG, Mr Smurfbeard.

Norrin moves and shoots down the tapestry holding Samson in thrall. The warlord shakes his head and finds his feet free as the fabric section crumples beneath Norrin's arrow.

You still need to make your way out, but unless you do something irretriveably stupid, that shouldn't be a problem.

Delay until either after Norrin's next turn or something unexpected happens.
