Wrath of the Righteous- Beer and Pretzels (Inactive)

Game Master drbuzzard

Not untouched, he failed a save against burning hands for a fair amount of damage.

Though I guess you and Marcus haven't touched him.

"How's it goin' in there? Y'all uns need any help?"

"Yes!!" replies Tanrov loudly

Molitor will lift up his axe and enter the building.

Xan is up.

Xandarian runs behind Tanrov and casts cure serious wounds on him.
CSW: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (6, 7) + 3 = 16

Once more he tries to get a spell off.

1d20 ⇒ 4 fail

You guys should be thanking the dice.

PCs are up.

Marcus yells, curses and grabs the scimitar with both hands. He prays to Grub that this works or else he'll probably commit audoku next round.

Power Scimitar: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10
That damage, really... I can't even...

Were it not for the flank that you didn't bother to include, you would have missed, so stop whining.

Molitor moves into position and tries to chop the enemy weezard.

greataxe: 1d20 + 6 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 6 - 1 + 2 = 17 (power attack, flank)

damage: 1d12 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 3 = 16

miss

You mean Cure Moderate Wounds of course.. the dice were correct anyway or are you that awesome and rolled the wrong amount of dice?

Feeling the healing energy wash over him Tanrov says

"Thanks Xan, great timing."

Tanrov will then attack with renewed energy and attempt to plant the wizard

Earthbreaker+st+power attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Earthbreaker+st+power attack damage: 2d6 + 10 ⇒ (3, 5) + 10 = 18

Xandarian step forward and attacks the orc with his rapier.
Rapier: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Being too clustered together, the cleric misses his mark.

miss, miss
4 rounds have passed since the color spray was cast so everyone should be functional again.

concentration: 1d20 ⇒ 13 pass

He casts a spell.

PCs are up.

Molitor moliates

greataxe: 1d20 + 6 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 6 - 1 + 2 = 27 (power attack, flank)

confirm: 1d20 + 6 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 6 - 1 + 2 = 8

damage: 1d12 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 3 = 17

Molitor moliates the hell out of him, but he does not drop.

Marcus slashes again with the scimitar.

Power Scimitar: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 2 = 15
Damage: 1d6 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 3 = 12

No, Marcus misses again with the scimitar.

Kevin picks up his scimitar and moves to attack the wizard. "Surrender and face your punishment or you will die here assassin!"

Edit: removed Diplomacy roll

Diplomacy (as most people don't notice) takes a full minute to use. It cannot be used in combat.

"Fall dammit fall..."

Tanrov tries for a more graceful attack this time attempting to catch the wizard after Molitors great hit.

Earthbreaker+st: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17

Earthbreaker+st damage: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (1, 2) + 7 = 10

miss

Baddie tries concentration again
1d20 ⇒ 10 fizzle

PCs are up.

"Surrender or die, but stop making us waste our heroic time!"

Power Scimitar: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 2 = 10

He continues to laugh at you.

Kevin attacks the caster for the first time and misses.

+1 Cold Iron Scimitar: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14 Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Molitor contemplates moliation

greataxe: 1d20 + 6 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 6 - 1 + 2 = 14 (power attack, flank)

but probably shouldn't think so hard about it.

damage: 1d12 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 3 = 13

Obviously flagģing after repeatedly swinging the over sized hammer about Tanrov swings again

Earthbreaker: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

And doesn't even come close

Looking around, Xandarian just shakes his head, and leans on the door frame, waiting for the sh!t-show to be over.

Waiting on Uelarik.

Sorry, thought I was still stunned - missed the note about the 4 rounds being up.

Uelarik moves to fire a scorching ray at the half orc without hitting his companions

ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
damage: 4d6 + 1 ⇒ (3, 2, 6, 6) + 1 = 18

...and the baddie goes down without getting to drop his fireball on you all .

Technically you should have missed shooting into melee, but I would just as soon not TPK the lot of you.

Tanrov looks at Uelarik with a serious expression on his face and then breaks into a smile.

"Finally I get to congratulate you on helping me stay a step away from the Gray Ladies demense.. good jon Uelarik."

Sir Gimpsalot, the NPC, hobbles into the house conveniently after the danger is over and exclaims "Have you found my wife? Did he get her? "

"We did find a half orc in a dress...." Molitor says as he searches the dead weezard.

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

You notice that there is blood on the floor. The fact that there is a bleeding corpse there as well doesn't register (the dead half orc).

"I see no sign of your wife here sir. He didn't even wait to see who was coming into the house he just attacked us. Maybe we can find something from your wife if we search the place."

Perception: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (12) + 0 = 12

I'll say you take 20 (well not you, but someone who can find their butt with both hands).

Hidden in a secret niche in the bedroom (Perception DC 25) is a brief note from Irabeth, telling Avenn that when he returns, he can find Irabeth at Defender’s Heart. The note says that the password “Silverstrong” identifies them as friends. In addition, Irabeth left two potions of cure moderate wounds and three potions of invisibility in the niche to aid her hubby’s journey to Defender’s Heart.

Uelarik detects magic on the area to ensure nothing is missed.

"Let's find Defenders Heart."

Who wants the potions?

"Yes lets go." says Tanrov in agreement with Uelarik.

You head out for Defender's Heart. On the way, however, your Merchant lackey NPC Horgus begins to whine and moan about going to his manor, and how it's on the way, and how he will reward you, and ... (he just doesn't stop.)

Tanrov approaches Horgus ans tries to calm him

"Mr Horgus, one thing at a time, we have to goto defenders heart and see what the situation is first, this whole area seems to be pretty run down and infested with demons and all sorts of riff raff, what's the point of going back to your house if some demons just come along and burn it down."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17

"But we're about to pass it. It shouldn't take long, and I can assure you the rewards I offer will help you get to Defender's Heart. " says the really annoying NPC who was not successfully diplomacized.

"Since he's right here, I'll go with Horgus to check the manor", conceeds Xandarian, drawing his rapier.

"Whaddya all say? I'll go with Xan as he's to valuable to let go by himself.. who else.. better if all of us go considering the last encounter."

Uelarik joins the others. "Let's stick together and all drop Horgus off. There's safety in numbers."

"Point the way Horgus. We'll get you home if it's on the way." Kevin says the the merchant and prepares to lead the way.

You go to his house to find it in a reasonable state of repair. The doors are open and it is empty of occupants.

"Servants all abandoned the place." says Horgus upon seeing the state of his manor. "I suppose I can't expect loyalty to overcome a demonic invasion. "

Horgus activates a hidden latch and a secret panel opens to reveal stairs which go down. This takes you to a vault door which he opens with a key. Inside are copious supplies and lots of sacks of hold. He counts out substantial piles of gold for each of you and hands you each a potion of cure light wounds.

"Here. You've all been a great help to me. I'm staying here. I hope you are able to clear the city. I'm not a fighter so I'm no help anyway, and just someone you'd need to guard. Farewell. " the gold sacks have 250 GP each in them.

Taking his potion and bag of gold, Xandarian looks open-mouthed at the wealth around him, and sputters "Y-Y-You're welcome!"
