...and for your sins... (Inactive)

Game Master Tin Foil Yamakah

Simon: Just a reminder the hall you are in and the one south of you are free of traps and secret doors. You searched them before you left for your business trip.

Skiron ducks into the adjacent corridor, and his servitor lets go of the boulder, leaping upward to cling to the ceiling, when the way is clear.

The boulder continues it's journey southward eventually smashing into the door in the southern corridor.

Simon check door in East and North Doors for traps and/or locks.

East
Perception: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (11) + 23 = 34

North
percep 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (11) + 23 = 34

Moving to the south door is the boulder completely blocking the passage?

Edit: I promise I did not copy and paste those rolls. I typed them individually.

Simon: You find no traps on the east and north door and neither is locked.

However you do discover a trap(not trapped) door on the floor just on the other side of the northern door.

I have marked it on the map.

The boulder is completly blocking access to the southern door.

The last thing I am worried about is you cheating.

"Whew, no more traps for awhile. Since the norther door is trapped, it may be holding something important. Let's knock out the east door first to make sure nothing gets the drop on us, and then once its cleared, head back to the Northern door." Ta'ruk opens the eastern door and peers inside.

perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Ta'ruk: Ahead of you lies a 50' corridor

Simon cautiously proceeds down the hallway looking for traps until he can peer around the corner.

Perception as needed

1d20 + 23 ⇒ (4) + 23 = 27
1d20 + 23 ⇒ (17) + 23 = 40
1d20 + 23 ⇒ (11) + 23 = 34
1d20 + 23 ⇒ (20) + 23 = 43

Simon: There are no traps in the corridor, at the end is what appears to be an opening to a natural cavern. Beyond a roughly circular opening of uncarved stone is a thick veil of silvery mist with occasional threads of gold. The mist is opaque beyond a few feet but you can hear the sound of water splashing quietly against rock.

I have revealed the entire cavern, keep in mind you can only see 10' ahead

"Would anyone care to walk into the ominous foggy room?"

Skiron's Lurker Above slides across the ceiling past the party and into the fog.

So what happens to it? Any skill checks that might apply to this spectacle? Would Simon or Ta'ruk care to detect magic?

Simon attempts to Detect magic the room and concentrate to distinguish different auras if possible.

Skiron: The lurker goes in and is quickly engulfed by the mists...A few seconds later you all hear a bloodcurdlin scream

Fort DC 24: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

Skiron laughs hysterically for a few seconds.

"Of course, of course! What happened?!? Can anyone see?"

sorry about that the phone just decided to eat a nice long post of mine.

Simon: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
Skiron: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Ta'ruk: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
baddie: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (13) + 15 = 28

Ok then you may go after a beautiful ghostly elven woman appears out of the fog and attacks poor Simon

Bad Touch: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (11) + 26 = 37
ouch: 14d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 5, 4, 5, 3, 6, 6, 4, 4, 6, 1, 1, 5) = 52

Fort DC 23: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28..Simon will not cower in fear.

Edit: That save was supposed to be will, either way you made it.

Everyone else is up

Ta'ruk jumps back for a moment startled by the scream. He regains his focus as Simon is attacked and casts haste on the party.

Ta'ruk: From where you are on the map, you can get Skiron included in your spell as Simon is 50' away from you

Simon takes a 5' step back and casts Mirror image

1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 images step out from Simon's square and begin to walk through each other and the original.

Skiron you are up please have a post up by tuesday morning

Yeah, yeah...I'm just surprised and concerned that Jeneva's evidently disappeared. I didn't think it seemed like her.

Knowledge (Religion): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16

I move up a little and summon how many?: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 fiendish lunar nagas with the Magic Attacks, Sting, and Improved Dexterity Evolutions, who surround and blast the (I'm guessing) banshee with a volley of scorching rays.

scorching ray ranged touch #1: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25
fire damage: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 1, 5) = 17

Lights!: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
fire damage: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 3, 4) = 15

Camera!: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17
fire damage: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 6, 3) = 15

Action!: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28
fire damage: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 3, 2) = 9

Yeah, yeah...I'm just surprised and concerned that Jeneva's evidently disappeared. I didn't think it seemed like her.

I know sometimes life gets in the way, but I do not want to be a babysitter

[dice=Knowledge (Religion)]1d20+11

It is a Banshee

I move up a little and summon [dice=how many?]1d3+1 fiendish lunar nagas with the Magic Attacks, Sting, and Improved Dexterity Evolutions, who surround and blast the (I'm guessing) banshee with a volley of scorching rays.

[dice=scorching ray ranged touch #1]1d20+10
[dice=fire damage]4d6

[dice=Lights!]1d20+10
[dice=fire damage]4d6

[dice=Camera!]1d20+10
[dice=fire damage]4d6

[dice=Action!]1d20+10
[dice=fire damage]4d6

2 rays strike the banshee.

Round 2 Init 28

The Banshee attacks one of the Nagas who would dare to burn her.

1d20 + 26 ⇒ (1) + 26 = 27...Holy carp she missed it must be your lucky day

Simon, Skiron and Ta'ruk are up

Ta'ruk moves to 45 feet from the Banshee. He lets loose a scorching ray from each hand.

#1 ranged touch: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15, damage: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 1, 5) = 11
#2 ranged touch: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22, damage: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 3, 1) = 13

I am sorry Ta'ruk but those both miss, she has a pretty high touch AC, luckily though she has an intelligence of 5.(That kind of took me by surprise.) so don't expect the greatest tactics from her.

Simon takes a deep breath and raises his head. When he exhales he lowers his head and intense light radiates from his eyes, mouth, and face. It streaks out in a beam of bright sunlight towards the creature.

Sunbeam SLA. I'd like to target the 60' line to cross the banshee's path, but preferably not my companions if possible. I don't think banshees are specifically harmed by bright light, but if they are let me know. Other stuff happens. Might actually be blinded too if such a thing is possible with undead.

Dmg: 5d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 3, 5, 3) = 18
Ref DC 20 for half

10+SL7+3 (min cast stat)

Skiron pulls a small, glossy, coal-like black lump out of his satchel and smushes it into his forehead, where it slowly bubbles into his skin.

I consume a protection from Evil infusion.

Meanwhile, my Nagas fire magic missiles at the banshee....

magic missile #1: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (2, 1, 3) + 3 = 9
magic missile #2: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 3, 2) + 3 = 11
magic missile #3: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 2, 2) + 3 = 10
magic missile #4: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 3, 3) + 3 = 12

Reflex: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (4) + 19 = 23

Simon: You will notice she has a distinct dislike of your light spell

Your spell says it does double damage against undead and she has sunlight powerlessness. so not a good thing for her

Skiron: In her weakened state she screams(not wails) in pain from the assault of force missiles hitting her.

Round 3 Init 28

The Banshee will back into the fog.

AOO: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
AOO: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27 Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (6, 2) + 3 = 11
AOO: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
AOO: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

1 naga hits her before she dissapears into the mists

The rest of you are up

Skiron's creatures advance into the mist, Skiron himself a few paces behind them.

"Pretty laaady, come ouuut..."

The nagas ready actions to blast the banshee with magic missiles as soon as she shows back up, and Skiron takes a full defensive stance.

Skiron: I have placed 4 nagas on the map, please move them and yourself where you would like them.

Simon moves up slightly, Casts Daylight on a small pebble, and throws it as hard as he can to the other side of the room.

The daylight spell won't hurt her, but my hope is she might not initially realize that and run away from it toward us. Regardless, it may make it easier to see in the room.

Mirror images: 7

Ta'ruk moves within 45 feet of the mist and readies two more scorching rays if the banshee steps out again.

Simon: You hear your pebble hit stone and then you hear the "kerplunk" as it hits water. The silver and gold threads in the fog stand out a little more against the background of gray.

Skiron: The fog is thick and you and the nagas are up to your knees in water. (Vision is reduced to 5')

Ta'ruk: You do know that from 45' away it is impossible to see the cavern yes? In order to see the mists you must be within 10' Do you wish to be 10' away?

This ends Rd 3.

Round 4 The party is up

Skiron and his minions continue their cautious advance.

We move a bit, and keep the same actions as last round. Recall that I've got protection from Evil for the next several minutes.

Skiron: No contact yet.

Ta'ruk and Simon are up

Simon casts a protective spell on himself.

Shield

Ta'ruk will move up beside Simon ready to fire scorching rays.

Round 5

Skiron:The naga that I have the letter "a" above is attacked. Also as you are going through the water, you find youself an outcropping that rises above the waterline

Bad touch: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (6) + 26 = 32

Ouch: 14d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 4, 5, 1, 3, 6, 2, 5, 4, 3, 4, 3, 6) = 56

The group is up

Skiron looks on with glee as the cold light of distant stars fills the air to greet the banshee's return!

Skiron keeps his full defense.

The nagas unleash their readied actions!

magic missile #1: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 2, 4) + 3 = 12

magic missile #2: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 1, 1) + 3 = 9

magic missile #3: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 3, 4) + 3 = 13

magic missile #4: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 2, 3) + 3 = 12

And this round, more of the same!

defensive casting check for naga being attacked: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15 Darn.

magic missile #2: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 2, 2) + 3 = 8

magic missile #3: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 4, 2) + 3 = 12

magic missile #4: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 4, 1) + 3 = 11

Skiron: Unfortunately all of you are in that fog which prevents you from seeing more than a few feet in front of you. The only one who can see it is #4.

#4 will let you know that she attacked him from above.

If you wish to change your actions you may

"Come in, damn you, Skiron yells to the others, We've found her! And the water, as they say, fine!"

The closest naga telepathically relays her location to them - now THIS is a psychic hotline network!

Simon? Ta'Ruk? Either of you know gust of wind or something like that?

The others converge on #4's location, THEN blast her.

defensive casting check #1: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26
magic missile #1: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 2, 1) + 3 = 10

defensive casting check #2: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16 Unlucky!

defensive casting check #3: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21
magic missile #3: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 3, 1) + 3 = 10

#4 at least was able to launch it's readied action, correct?

Finally, I see you recorded them as having 68 hit points each - they should actually have 84 due to my Augment Summoning feat (which you could almost call a "feat tax" for Antiquarians).

Skiron: I fixed the nagas, sorry bout that, #4 was surprised and failed his check. Let me check and see if Ta'ruk has any options, I hate DMPC'ing but what are you gonna do

Ta'ruk will move in beside Skiron, ready to attack

Simon you are up

If I knew GOW I would have used it. :-)

Simon moves up with the group and draws his weapon.

Round 6

The banshee withdraws higher into the mist i.e. out of sight

Party is up

Simon moves in carefully, weapon in hand, looking for the enemy.

Moved myself on the map

Perception as needed 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (13) + 23 = 36

Simon: You do not detect anything

Ta'ruk will follow close behind you

Skiron is up

I move toward the others, maintain my defensive stance and start examining this outcropping I'm on (am I still on it?).

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

My nagas keep actions readied to cast magic missile next time they see the banshee.

Skiron: It is a small outcrop that upon examination has 2 sacks on it.

If you were to examine the sacks, tell me which one you grab first. this is not a trap just a weird mechanic]

Round 7 The party is up
