"You previously said we had the option of promising to break it before we leave. Is that still an option? If so how would that work? Without being able to examine the magic itself it is difficult to know if we have a chance of removing the curse or not. I am not fond of the binding and torture of creatures."

I would rather try it on the way out.. Given rest i can get several dispels and increase my chances of beating it.. Can u tell us what lies beyond?

You may pass but you may not leave without breaking the curse...perhaps, make your offer and I will let you know.

The perhaps depends on your diplo roll that you make now.

Whilst awaiting Vars' Fast Healing to complete, Duhwoo will use 7 charges from his wand o' Cure Serious Wounds on himself:

21d8+35

He'll continue to serve as rear-guard when the party is moving.

given the time it took for Infernal Healing and other healing to work, it makes sense that Duhwoo used 21 charges from his wand o' Cure LIGHT Wounds, rather than 7 from his CSW wand -- which he's been reminded repeatedly the CSW is best saved for combat...

Duhwoo's Diplomacy check to aid Avoreal: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Duhwoo is no help with the Diplo effort

thats fine Woo

Hindering us will not help to free you. We intend to find and destroy the Torc of Kostchtchie and wound Baba Yaga. Letting us pass now will better aid our chances of freeing you later.

diplo: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (15) + 20 = 35

On the button!

on your return I'll have your word that you will free me. Once given you may pass

"Works for me. Got any hints about what is ahead? Or you can just go back to sleep if you like. " and he expecting no answer will proceed (though without a map, I'm not sure where).

I will have you all give me your word.

apparently you actually have to promise, though your alignment will determine if you keep it or not.

"I cannot promise to release a creature that won't identify itself unless it swears to me that my god Torag would agree to it's release. I will promise to do what I can to release you contingent on being released from that promise should Torag not agree it is the correct thing to do.

So be it. Then you die.

From above our heroes an Ancient White Dragon appears and, for those of yu ith massive arcana scores, you are shocked that it blasts you not with cold but with burning hot steam.

20d4 ⇒ (2, 1, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 3, 1, 1, 1, 1, 3, 4, 3, 2, 1, 4, 2, 4) = 46 of damage Ref 27 for half, evasion applies as usual

fixing the map

Init

6d20 ⇒ (3, 20, 8, 16, 15, 16) = 78

Heroes go first.

the cone sprays down the hall, it will miss woo

it is 30 feet in the air, clinging to the ceiling

i have never seen an ancient dragon slaughtered in one round...im excited. please make sure you move to see it, as of now only Vars and Darvic can see it, Avoreal has cover towards it.

reflex save: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24 If I still had my cloak...

Vars will fly up and engage it.

power attack
to hit: 1d20 + 28 ⇒ (2) + 28 = 30 miss I think I have been infected with Fritz rolls

status (118/164HP)

As a free action, Duhwoo will check to make sure nothing is coming up from behind us:

Duhwoo's Perception check: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 20 = 23

for his standard action, Duhwoo will activate his Rng o' Blinkin'...

if there's nothing coming up from behind, he'll fly 40' -- staying more than 15' away from the dragon as he moves -- getting well into the room.

Well...I'm not quite sure what just happened, doing too many things at the same time. Let's see if this one posts.

reflex save: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12
Well at least it remembered the rolled 1. I guess that's good.
1. Hammer
2. Shield
3. Jingasa
4. Cloak
Item Affected: 1d4 ⇒ 3

Move to make sure Vars and DuhWoo are in the area of effect and cast blessing of fervor.

1d20 ⇒ 14

The power attack AOO scrapes off Vars armor...he won't make that mistake again, Var's attack misses.

darvik editing and your roll will be fine

Darvik, what happened is that when you said that you would not promise to break his curse he attacked

No, I mean I was most of the way through a post and it disappeared, I thought I would have to do it over and say that whatever it rolled, I'd actually rolled a one, but it stored that (which is cool, but depressing).

And I did not say I wouldn't break his curse, I said Torag would have to decide. He jumped to a conclusion, which happens to be correct.

yea...eventually you would have seen a white dragon and fought him. Prob better to door early

1d20 + 22 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 22 + 2 = 27 I think I have cover

Lithuan casts haste on the party and retreats a bit.

You sure do now.

Reflex: 1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 16 + 2 = 21 i guess we all just roll horribly..

Is it an actual white dragon or a ghost of one?

Oh and i cant modify the map either

If its a normal white dragon she'll cast Persistant Slow(DC 28) on it.. It must make the save twice to negate..

SR: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (17) + 23 = 40

yes it is a real white dragon...you think. I will check the map so you can edit.

you should be able to edit it, make sure you have the latest google drive

so the middle has it using ventriloquism to be disembodied and that it auto works

2d20 ⇒ (19, 12) = 31 saved

maybe you won't kill it on round one! yay!!

Yes, I shall enjoy eating the marrow from your bones.

It roars in a horrifying manner

DC 23 will or be shaken if you are within 300 feet

Bite and two claws on Vars, no power attack cause he learned

3d20 ⇒ (15, 9, 12) = 36 the jaws clamp down on Vars daring a surprised cry of pain

2d8 + 16 ⇒ (7, 4) + 16 = 27

two wings and tail on Woo with PA cause he hasn't learned not to

3d20 ⇒ (5, 10, 2) = 17 all hit

1d8 + 17 + 2d6 + 28 ⇒ (6) + 17 + (1, 3) + 28 = 55

Go heroes

woos blinking 3d100 ⇒ (13, 47, 28) = 88

one wing misses i will edit the damage above

Ok, that's starting to hurt.

Auto on the fly check to hover.

I'll not power attack right back at him.

blessing of fervor for +2 to hit, reflex and AC. +1 to hit from haste. Will activate combat expertise so AC is now 53. Try that on for size.

to hit: 1d20 + 31 ⇒ (8) + 31 = 39 damage: 1d8 + 19 ⇒ (2) + 19 = 21
to hit: 1d20 + 31 ⇒ (20) + 31 = 51 damage: 1d8 + 19 ⇒ (1) + 19 = 20
to hit: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (18) + 26 = 44 damage: 1d8 + 19 ⇒ (7) + 19 = 26
to hit: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (7) + 21 = 28 miss
to hit: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (13) + 16 = 29 miss

Confirm
to hit: 1d20 + 35 ⇒ (3) + 35 = 38 damage: 2d8 + 38 ⇒ (2, 7) + 38 = 47
to hit: 1d20 + 30 ⇒ (9) + 30 = 39 damage: 2d8 + 38 ⇒ (7, 1) + 38 = 46

Assuming it is not undead, it is now exhausted and it has taken 160 HP of damage.

(91/164 HP)

Will save : 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (12) + 18 = 30

Will Save: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 20 = 23

Holy Smite: 5d8 ⇒ (1, 3, 1, 6, 1) = 12 and blinded DC 19 will save for 1/2 and no blindness.

Wow...should have just chucked a rock at it.

Pretty sure its all or nothing on power attack.. I dont think you can choose which attacks you want power attacking and which you dont..

Will: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (14) + 17 = 31

Avoreal will cast Admonishing Ray and then move to make way for Lithuan to attack..

Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 15 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 15 - 4 = 13
Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 15 - 4 ⇒ (4) + 15 - 4 = 15
Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 15 - 4 ⇒ (7) + 15 - 4 = 18

Damage: 4d6 + 1 ⇒ (2, 4, 3, 2) + 1 = 12
Damage: 4d6 + 1 ⇒ (4, 3, 4, 4) + 1 = 16
Damage: 4d6 + 1 ⇒ (4, 1, 1, 6) + 1 = 13

Yes, power attack is either on or off in a given round and through all AOOs

Darvik is shaken

1d20 ⇒ 14 save made

The three green rays hit the monster and it looks tired of you all

see what I did there?

I have a feeling it is not living through Woo and Lithuan

I rolled a 23, wasn't the DC of the roar 23, thus I saved?

sorry Darvic, typo, should have said you are not shaken. I noted it because you were close

Duhwoo's Will save: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31 not shaken

Duhwoo will use the +2 to hit from Blessing of Fervor, then rage and charge -- doing a flying tumble to avoid the AoO he'll provoke -- using Power Attack, Reckless Abandon, Dazing Assault, and "Come and Get Me":

Duhwoo's Acrobatics check to avoid AoO as he charges: 1d20 + 28 ⇒ (3) + 28 = 31 probably gets hit by the AoO

Charge Attack, using Dazing Assault: 1d20 + 37 - 5 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 37 - 5 + 2 = 49
crit confirm check: 1d20 + 37 - 5 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 37 - 5 + 2 = 39
20% miss chance due to blinking: 1d100 ⇒ 63
Charge Attack damage, with 2d6 from Britches o' Chargin': 2d4 + 2d6 + 35 ⇒ (2, 4) + (6, 2) + 35 = 49 points -- and a DC 26 Fort save...

if AC 39 confirms crit, then another
2d4 + 2d6 + 35 ⇒ (3, 2) + (3, 5) + 35 = 48 points of damage from crit hit

wait -- Duhwoo is flying upward at a greater than 45-degree angle to make this charge attack:

Duhwoo's Fly check, with +4 for 'Good' maneuverability (Fly spell gives Good maneuverability): 1d20 + 6 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 4 = 20

it's all good!

AOO1d20 ⇒ 7 hits 2d8 + 28 ⇒ (8, 6) + 28 = 42

The dragon tumbles to the floor, not moving.

"Technically I guess it's free now. "

assuming combat is over Vars, will head down to behead the critter just to make sure (since nuking from orbit isn't an option).

there's still a miss chance from Blinking...

note that Mr McKeener is getting right up next to the beast (not using Lunge) -- so he can use his Step Up feat, if the opportunity arises...

if the dragon tries to attack Duhwoo on it's turn, Duhwoo will get up to 4 "Come and Get Me" AoOs -- here they are, just in case:

AoO #1, with +2 from BoF: 1d20 + 30 - 5 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 30 - 5 + 2 = 42
20% miss chance due to blinking: 1d100 ⇒ 16
** miss due to Blinking... **

AoO #1: 1d20 + 30 - 5 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 30 - 5 + 2 = 36
20% miss chance due to blinking: 1d100 ⇒ 72
if AC 36 hits, then 2d4 + 35 ⇒ (1, 2) + 35 = 38 points of damage -- and a DC 26 Fort save...

AoO #1: 1d20 + 30 - 5 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 30 - 5 + 2 = 32
20% miss chance due to blinking: 1d100 ⇒ 44
if AC 32 hits, then 2d4 + 35 ⇒ (4, 2) + 35 = 41 points of damage -- and a DC 26 Fort save...

AoO #1: 1d20 + 30 - 5 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 30 - 5 + 2 = 39
20% miss chance due to blinking: 1d100 ⇒ 62
if AC 39 hits, then 2d4 + 35 ⇒ (1, 3) + 35 = 39 points of damage -- and a DC 26 Fort save...

its deader!

Vars sees in the gullet of the dragon a small glowing fiery rock.

The heroes find a ring of sustenance and a wand of Ventriloquism, and underneath the ice, after taking 10 minutes to cut out, or dealing 20 points of fire, the find a ton of coin and gems.

"Anyone know what that rock is? I'm a bit scared to touch it given how things seem to work around here. Also, could someone help me out here. I'm rather injured. " and he will pull out the infernal healing wand.

oh...

(still curious to see if Blinking saved Duhwoo from having to heal the extra 42 points from the AoO or not...)

"Ah reckon yer right, Lord Vars -- an' Ah didn't want ta free the evil thing from that curse any other way nohow!"

the Bardbarian is very interested in carrying that wand of Ventriliquism!

Duhwoo will use 9 charges from his wand o' CLW:

9d8 + 9 ⇒ (6, 6, 8, 8, 4, 3, 1, 1, 6) + 9 = 52

"I release you from your torment into the care of Torag."

"Get on the healing train! Who needs what?"

Darvik uses wands and scrolls to heal everybody up,whether theirs or mine.
