Seamus, you notice chill wind stirring and a flicker of move movement the blocks of ice.

Seamus and Paletress, take cold damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 1) = 3 DC 12 Fort save for half.

Fort save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26

initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

Roll init please.

init enemy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Paletress moves forward, drawing her sword as she moves and looking about for the source of the ill wind.

PERCEPTION: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

Init: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11

Beollimandus, now off of his horse, finally becomes aware there is an issue with this block of ice his party is talking to. He attempts to focus on what all of the ruckus is about while drawing his greatsword.

INITIATIVE: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
PERCEPTION: 1d20 ⇒ 3

was that a doll in the ice? turning and looking at the block where the cold seems to be emanating from, "What is that?" as he carefully looks around.

fort: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8
init: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24
perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14

init Sparhawk: 1d20 ⇒ 13
init Brocken: 1d20 ⇒ 11

can we see the attacker? or is it the figure in the building?

edit: can we fire over the ice maze?

With your perception rolls, you are unable to see anything in the hut.

so we do not know where the attack was coming from? can we still see the little girl?

Seamus takes another look around trying to tell where the attack came from, "Did anyone see the attacker? Did it come from the little girl or somewhere else?"

perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

lets assume the talking/perception is a move action, he will either move again or fire the crossbow based on what he finds out/ sees

what about the detecting magic I was doing?

Sorry, thought I had replied. You are only able to identify an aura with that result, not what is causing it.

Seamus will delay until, someone else identifies the attacker, or until the attacker identifies itself with an attack. If he can see the attacker he will fire the crossbow, if he does not have line of sight he will move toward the attacker.

in case he sees the attacker: he will fire the crossbow
crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9 for damage: 1d8 ⇒ 2

Is there only the aura coming from the girl? Or elsewhere? What school of magic?

That will take another round to determine. School is determined in round two, strength in three rounds.

The window on the hut facing you starts to turn a dark, muddy grey.

Beoll, Sparhawk, Autumn and Brocken are up.

[ooc] GM, I don't like the nickname (I feel it cheapens my character concept). Please refer to my character by Beollimandus.[/occ]

Beollimandus will use his standard and movement action to double move to the front of the party. Preparing for anything to attack, he switches out his greatsword for his shield and club.

What is out there, friends? Do you know what may be attacking us?

Sorry Beollimandus, did not mean to offend. Just that is a lot to type multiples times especially with my arthritis.

Arthritis?! Then you are a brave man for attempting to run a game on a message board.

To say nothing of the number of campaigns he runs online.

If it were only arthritis! I have a Lupus like form of Sjogrens and all my joints are shot. I only run five games and try to keep typing to a minimum. Lots of cutting and pasting.

And doing a damn fine job of it. The running!!!
Taking his weapon Brocken moves closer, ready to support his comrades!

Sparhawk moves towards the hut, studying the magic aura and letting belliomandus lead, his estoc drawn.

Greg, then just nickname my character Bill (or Billy) but I only request this of the GM. As a Cavalier, his name is very important as he wishes his good deeds will one day be the talk of bards and legends - I hope everyone else understands this.

Hey, I understand completely. Now Seamus, he's not so bright, if we get bored it could be quite the fun plot point having Beollimandus explain it in game. ;) No offense but especially as thin as his background is. By the way, how is his quote "Oh let us love our occupations, bless the squire and his relatives, live upon our daily rations, and always know our proper stations." as a Chaotic good character "and always know our proper stations," really?

Does it really matter? That wasn't in character so its not going to affect any songs of glory... Lol

I have no problem RPing this point. I agree, it could be fun - especially if it is relevant to the character's personality.

Beollimandus, I put your name in a text file for copy paste but will use Bill for short hand when I cannot find it, thanks:) What is everyone doing? You should realize that there is something threatening around, but not sure where.

so are we just waiting on Autumn or someone else also?

I think Autumn, I will let her know tomorrow.

Moving up to the area near where the doll was seen, detecting magic, rolling knowledge religion, planes, or arcana.

Knowledge: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19

I think its a magical trap or possession of an object by a spirit, either way, our rogue can find it. If see a target, I have my crossbow ready.

so are we going after the ghost girl or the hut?

since we appear to be at the end of round one and no opponent has shown his or her face, Sseamus will move forward and take another perception roll for the end of his round. He is now going at the end of the round.

'I don't think that the little girl is the problem here, I need to see into that hut!' Seamus, not being able to see into the hut moves forward and takes another look at the hut.

perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22

You see a small figure in the entrance to the hut.

After repositioning himself Seamus, again looks toward the hut. 'what is that in the doorway, why is it so small Bringing his crossbow to bear at the little figure, Seamus waits to see if makes an attack. warning the rest of the team: "There is a small figure in the entrance to the hut."

Paletress double moves, eyes on the hill, trying to find an access route.

Uh... there appears to be a crazy cleric in Paletress' path now... is this important?

I am using the cleric as the image of the doll you keep seeing in the maze.

The doll fires off a ray of frost at Seamus:

ranged touch: 1d20 ⇒ 11 damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

Note: I am no longer going to post the bonuses to hit for enemies, just their attack rolls. Seamus is hit for 2. Bill, Sparhawk, Autumn and Brocken are up

PERCEPTION: 1d20 ⇒ 20
Beollimandus moves around the 'top side' of the maze to get into flanking position of this doll as a double move preparing for any attack that may come from it while he tries to get a better view of what is happening to the front lines of the group.

With that the image of the doll disappears again only to reappear further west.

Do we have a cleric, I am seeing spirit's

Ready my shortsword

brv, do you have Seamus @ 14 HP or 16? I originally though the touch attack hit but now I'm second guessing. Also, Seamus delayed and is now moving at the end of the round so he will act since the doll has.

'Did I see that right? Did that doll just teleport across the hut? Is this another fey trick? Mildly confused Seamus continues moving through the ice maze making his way toward the hut. Keeping his crossbow ready to fire, just in case he calls out. "Did anyone else see that? The doll just teleported! Aurora did you say they're spirits? Could it be the fey again?"

second round: double move, rough terrain, covered 30 ft.

has it been long enough to detect if this is illusory school of magic?

Sparhawk will try to reach the doll and strike it, if able.

It is a haunt, not illusion. Sparhawk, you are just entering the area and the hut is about three moves away from you.

will run up to the others then
