SwampTing's Untitled Campaign (Inactive)

Game Master SwampTing

Actually, I take 3 points of damage. This looks like an alignment-based effect, and because I cast corruption resistance on myself, I take 10 less damage from effects that deal damage based on my alignment. Because I like to play overpowered races. ;)

Exiel scowls as he realises that the centaur is a little too far to charge at. He takes a double move to get closer, and declares to the centaur "By Torag you shall be smited!"

Alden double-moves forward, as his short legs unfortunately keep him from going very far.

Sue also double-moves forward, though she can move significantly farther than Alden.

As Exiel moves closer, the light from Constantin's ring illuminates more of the cavern, and they see something of a horror lurking further in the cavern - a centaur-like creature with a frost giant's torso atop the body of a tremendous eight-legged stallion.

A hulking creature with the lower body of a massive eight-legged stallion. Rising from its equine body is the trunk of a muscled humanoid with icy blue skin and a prodigious white beard rimed with ice. Piercing blue eyes glare beneath beetled brows and a spiralling pair of horns which curl upward. It grips in his hands a massive lance which looks like it has a tree's entire trunk for a shaft.

However, it does not act yet.

Instead, it is the centaur who acts. It sees Exiel advancing and casts a spell...that Exiel resists effortlessly with no ill effect. He then moves further into cavern. Alden and Sue also move in towards the centaur...though it is only after they move in that they too see the huge monstrosity deeper in the cavern.

Alden, I still need the saves from you and Sue.
42, you have not seen the huge creature inside yet, and without low-light vision will not see him unless you stand close to Exiel. What do you do?

Sorry, missed the part about the Will save for half.

Will Alden: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

Will Sue: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18

Both Alden and Sue fail their save and take the full 14 damage. They also have -2 to all their d20 rolls for 3 rounds.

If 42 does not post soon I will put him into delay and move on.

sorry. didn't notice i was holding everyone up. Been busy putting together a kickstarter, working on art. sorry.

After the damage of 7 was delt DC: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12, he would have had who ever is carrying his wand heal him, if there was time.

42 will double move up ahead of Alden.

"What is that?"

No problem, 42. And no there was no time. The centaur had a readied action for when Exiel opened the door, and you all got caught in the area of effect. Combat started immediately after.

The massive 8-legged (10-limbed) juggernaut levels his lance and kicks off into a gallop, bearing down on the nearest target...the little gnomish monk in his way!

charge: 1d20 + 22 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (7) + 22 + 2 - 4 = 27
damage: 3d6 + 13 + 8 + 3d6 + 13 + 8 ⇒ (4, 3, 2) + 13 + 8 + (4, 5, 3) + 13 + 8 = 63

Ouch. Better Sue than you, Alden.

The sound of pounding hoof-beats echo throughout the cavern, drowning out the sound of Sue's agonised scream as the huge creature impales her on his lance and leaves her gasping for breath. Her body goes limp as the creature pulls his lance from her body and she slumps to the ground, unconscious and bleeding.

42, to answer your question, that is a world of hurt waiting to happen... Good luck, guys!

Exiel, you're up. Alden and 42 may also want to think about what they want to do. Alden, Sue will need a stabilisation roll.

Holy shi+! If that thing isn't evil, we're pretty much screwed?

Exiel's eyes go wide as the overgrown-mutant-centaur takes down Sue in a single stroke.

"Alden, 42, you guys try try to take down the spellcaster fast! I'll hold this thing off! By Torag, you shall be SMITED!"

Using my second smite evil. Thank you silversmite bracelet. Unless this thing is neutral...in which case I don't know how we're going to do this... =(

Exiel takes a deep breath to calm himself, then strides towards the mutant-centaur and takes a smite-stab.

attack roll: 1d20 + 10 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 10 + 3 + 2 = 35(+9 if evil)
damage: 1d8 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 2 = 16 (+6 if evil)

Oh thank Torag!

confirmation roll: 1d20 + 10 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 10 + 3 + 2 = 30(+9 if evil)
crit damage: 3d8 + 18 + 6 ⇒ (4, 8, 8) + 18 + 6 = 44 (+18 if evil)

Really hoping this thing is evil...

Sue Stabilize Fort: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 22

Let's see... she had 14 damage already, and now 63, so Sue is at -5 HP, so she stabilizes. Yikes!

@Alden: Stabilisation is not a Fort save, it is Constitution check...

Exiel: I'll give you this much. Yes it is evil. No one has knowledge nature?

Exiel glows with radiant energy as he calls on Torag to aid him against the monolithic foe. The huge centaur-like creature stabs at the 7 Exiels as they dart towards him.

attack of opportunity: 1d20 + 22 - 4 ⇒ (4) + 22 - 4 = 22

Exiel glows so furiously that the creature recoils instinctively and fails to deliver a proper blow. He soon pays for the error as Exiel pluges his hooked lance deep into the creature's horse-chest and twists his lance before pulling it out again. The hook of his lance catches and rakes across flesh and icy blood vessels on the way out, causing severe damage as it pulls out profuse amounts of blood and gore. But he enormous beast has lots of blood to lose, and he still stands, his eyes fixed intently and furiously on the aasimar.

The smaller centaur snarls something in a foreign tongue as he gestures wildly at Exiel, then begins chanting as he backs away into the darkness.

Dispel check: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

Exiel gets the impression that the centaur was trying to get rid of the annoying images around him, but luck is really not on their side this day. So far at least. You also get the impression that if you understood what the centaur was saying, you'd be hearing a lot of cursing. A lot of extensive and colourful cursing.

@Alden: Stabilisation is not a Fort save, it is Constitution check...

Unfortunately, this is right. You needed to roll a DC10 CON check at a -5 penalty, so Sue would have failed to stabilise. On her turn, Sue will continue to bleed and go to -6 hp.

Alden and 42 are up. Exiel has managed to paint a big bright target on himself. Sue is near death right in the middle of a furiously raging battle, but blissfully unconscious and unaware.

42 sees Sue taken down easily. "Well... that thing is ugly." 42 takes a 5 foot step forward while pulling out a potion and pours it down Sue's mouth. Cure Mod: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (5, 6) + 3 = 14

42 will also extend an Arcane Point to add 4 to his armor.

Exiel: I'll give you this much. Yes it is evil. No one has knowledge nature?

Woot! Die big evil thing!

knowledge nature: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Big evil thing that I have no clue about! XD

Alden moves up in between his allies and uses the total defense action. As usual, he'll be able to give adjacent allies +11 AC up to three times in the next round.

Alden moves up to defend his allies and 42 feeds Sue a potion. Her wounds close a little, just enough to bring her back to consciousness (but she now goes after 42).

The huge centaur-creature glowers at Exiel, then suddenly brings its horned forehead down towards him, then as it pulls itself upright, raises its forelegs and kicks out at him, then shuffles back just a little to deliver 3 quick jabs with its lance!

gore: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (19) + 21 = 40
hoof: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (6) + 16 = 22
hoof: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (9) + 16 = 25

lance iterative: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (16) + 17 = 33
lance iterative 2: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27

Alden pulls Exiel out of the way of the unexpected gore attack, and Exiel is able to dodge the hoofs on his own. However, both of them are suprised by the speed at which the behemoth presses his attack, and two of Exiel's images fall to its lance.

Exiel is up, then the smaller centaur, then Sue, Alden and 42.

Exiel smiles confidently as he calls upon the rider of the black mantle once more to boost his prowess (+2 CHA), then steps towards the huge mutant-centaur and keeps stabbing.

attack roll: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (10) + 25 = 35
damage: 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 22

"Alden, stay by Sue and 42 and protect them. I've got this guy."

Exiel drives his lance into the huge centaur's flank, drawing more blood and causing it to stumble a little, but it is still standing.

The smaller centaur moves a little closer and calls out something to the larger "centaur", then chants a spell as he points at the 4 of you. The air around you expldoes in a chaotic riot of colours. This time, it is Exiel, 42 and Sue that are affected, whilst Alden is strangely unharmed.

damage to 42 and Sue: 4d8 ⇒ (8, 5, 2, 6) = 21
damage to Exiel: 8d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 6, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1) = 20
slow duration: 1d6 ⇒ 1

A DC19 Will save halves the damage and negates the slow. Don't forget you can use Exiel's battle cry to reroll failed saves, especially for Sue if she fails.

Alden, 42 and Sue are up.

Sue Will save: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (20) + 13 = 33 (+2 vs. enchantment or illusion)

Sue resists the spell well, but the damage caused is still enough to put her into the negatives once again.

Sue was at +8 HP, so she now falls unconscious once more and is at -2 HP.

"My friends, move close to me to position yourselves, I will protect you from harm!"

Alden will then use his Tactician ability as a Standard action, granting them all the Escape Route teamwork feat, which means that as long as we are adjacent to one of our (conscious) allies, our movement does not provoke AOOs.

Also, I just realized that Alden can only help his allies TWICE per round, not three times, because of his Dex penalty from now being old. GRRRRR LOL

Int: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10 Alden does not know the little centaur's tactics.

Sue falls unconscious once more. Alden gives you all some tactical advice on the fly and prepares to protect 42 and/or Sue if she somehow regains consciousness (Exiel is out of range to be aided).

42 is up. Need a will save from 42 and Exiel and a stabilisation roll for Sue. Exiel you still need to roll your save since a 1 will still result in failure.

Sue stabilize Con check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

DC 10 at a -2 penalty, so she makes it, right? :)

int: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17

42 moves 30 feet towards the little centaur and casts Scorching Ray and hold the spell until the little centaur starts to cast another spell. Then he shoot both rays at the little centaur.

Touch attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 154d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 1, 2) = 11
Touch attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 214d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 4, 1) = 14

The dice are not with me this fight... :(

42, you were also slowed by the spell for one round, so you can only take a 5ft step. Also, keep in mind that you are at 2hp now. Be careful.
42 gets an idea of what the smaller centaur is thinking and prepares a countermeasure. Sue manages to keep more of her blood from spilling out.

The larger centaur bellows at Exiel and repeats its previous attack routine.

gore: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (1) + 21 = 22
hoof: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (16) + 16 = 32
hoof: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (7) + 16 = 23

lance iterative: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34
lance iterative 2: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17

Even without Alden's help, Exiel manages to avoid most of the attacks. Only the first lance strike pops an image. The large centaur snorts in frustration and raises its lance. It appears to be getting ready to try something different next turn.

Exiel easily shrugs off the worst of the smaller centaur's spell, and his corruption resistance handles the rest.

Int check: 1d20 ⇒ 17

"Have a care, guys! The smaller centaur appears to be calling the shots, and he seems to have worked out that I'm really hard to hit, especially if Alden is supporting me. He appears to be changing his tactics accordingly!"

Realising that he's still the only person in the party who could go toe-to-toe with the mutant-centaur, Exiel steps towards him yet again and continues stabbing.

stabbity: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (8) + 25 = 33
jabbity: 1d8 + 16 ⇒ (5) + 16 = 21

How much hp does this guy have? He must be close to dropping by now, I hope?

Exiel smites the large centaur yet again, putting it in a lot of pain, but it is still standing.

The smaller centaur looks with on-going alarm and calls out to the larger centaur, then slams his oversized warhammer against the ground, releasing a crackling bolt of ice that shoots across the ground toward a single target up to 100 feet away. Alden.

touch attack: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27

Oh dear. I was running out of excuses not to use that.

On a successful hit, the ice immediately freezes around Alden, trapping it within a 9-inch-thick solid block of pale blue ice. The ice blocks line of effect to the entrapped Alden, who is helpless (but can still breathe).

Alden, you take 9 points of cold damage on your turn, and you get the impression that you will continue to take that damage per round until freed. Exiel and 42 can attempt to free Alden by either dealing enough damage to the ice or attempting to break it all at once with a strength check.

42, you're up. The small centaur's action was close enough to casting a spell that you can choose to take your readied action (in which case you will move to just before the smaller centaur in the initiative order), or you can choose not to take your readied action and instead take a new action now.

That absolutely hits Alden, and he is frozen solid. POOP!!!

42 will do his readied action, but he will send the first ray at the ice and the second at the little guy. He will also spend an Arcane Point to bring his shield armor up by 4. making his ac a 29. was gonna do this earlier, but forgot.

42 also moves towards the little guy after he shoots his rays out of his hands. Most likely to get channeled to death...

The "little guy" who is one size category bigger than you. :p Since you're taking your readied action, you won't get to move, but you will get to act before the centaur gets to act again.

42 fires two blazing rays from his fingers. The first strikes the ice encasing Alden, melting a good portion of it but not yet enough to free his ally. The second hits the centaur in the flank, causing the smell of singed horse-hair to fill the air.

The larger centaur rears up on its four hind legs, then tramples over Exiel and keeps on moving to trample over 42. It seems particularly adept at this manoeuver, and leaves no opening for attacks of opportunity as it does so, nor are either of you able to even try to avoid it. (Improved overrun.)

Exiel, you're up. Alden is still encased in ice, and you're the last one standing...

Whoa crap. Um...just checking, but did the large centaur also have a way of not provoking attacks of opportunity from moving out of a threatened area? I am still using my hooked lance, so would I have been able to stab at it before it trampled over me and 42? If I have a shot at killing it with the final stab, it might not have gotten the chance to go on to trample 42...

Improved overrun only negates the AoO for the overrun/trample itself, I think.

If I get an attack of opportunity:
attack roll: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (5) + 25 = 30
damage: 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17

"Alden, stay by Sue and 42 and protect them. I've got this guy."

Once per day, the legalistic curse allows me to add a +4 morale bonus (so +5 for me) to any roll made in the course of 'fulfilling a promise to another individual'. Will you allow that previous instance of me saying 'I've got this guy' to count as a promise, and allow me to add that +4 to my damage to my AoO if I get one?

I thought the move was part of my readied action..... and it sucks that i can't avoid that centaur.. but it looks like 42 is done for now.

I thought the move was part of my readied action..... and it sucks that i can't avoid that centaur.. but it looks like 42 is done for now.

Hold your centaurs. I think Exiel's right. He does get an attack of opportunity, and yes, I will allow Exiel to use that sentence as a promise.

The large centaur attempts to evade the tip of Exiel's lance as it commences its charge of doom...
acrobatics: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15

But Exiel is ready for it, and plunges his lance deep into its chest. The humanoid chest. His recollection of his earlier words to Alden give him a surge of strength, and he plunges the lance in deep. The huge creature rears up in pain and gives a terrifying bellow. It stays in that position for a few long moments, and for a while it looks like it will regain its footing. Its four front hoofs touch the ground...then buckle, and the whole mass of muscle and bone collapse to the ground, groaning piteously, then falling silent, its chests just barely heaving as it bleeds on the ground.

42 gets the impression that he just had a very close brush with death. The smaller centaur screams with rage and fury at Exiel.

Exiel gives an exclamation of joy and relief as his last ditch effort to stop the mutant-centaur succeeds.

He turns to the normal-sized/legged centaur and grins broadly.

"One down. You're next."

I've still got the smite on this guy that I declared in round 1.

Exiel trots up to the smaller centaur and stabs.

smite evil!: 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17

You can just call him a centaur now.

Exiel lashes out at the centaur and rakes the hook of his lance along the centaur's flank, drawing a ragged gash. The centaur's eyes are bulging with fury and hatred as he closes a fist around a tiny, icy, rune-carved hammer hanging from a chain around his neck. Waves of negative energy burst from him and wash over all of you...except Alden, who oddly enough is protected by the very ice that is freezing him to death.

42, you're up, then Exiel.

42 moves into combat range of the little centaur, drawing upon his arcane powers to imbue his sword with keen and give it a plus 2. He casts Vampiric Touch and swings his scimitar.

Oh, can't forget.
Will Save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

Will save: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (18) + 19 = 37

Exiel shrugs off the worst of the negative energy, then moves around the centaur to give 42 a flanking position and joins the attack.

attack roll: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (10) + 25 = 35
damage: 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17

Exiel and 42 pin the centaur between them, and 42 in particular delivers a powerful blow that flares with dark vampiric energy. The centaur roars in fury, and his muscles swell before your eyes. He is severely bloodied, but he fights back with an almost crazed look in his eyes.

He goes for 42 first, perceiving that he had underestimated the human before, rearing back to kick at him with its hooves as it swings its oversized warhammer at his head.

hammer: 1d20 + 14 + 2 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 14 + 2 + 4 + 1 = 39

>>hoof damage: 1d6 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 12

Though it had stayed back before, the centaur demonstrates that it is no slouch in melee either! 42 falls to a series of hammer and hoof blows. As the centaur's hoofs touch the ground once more, just as Exiel thinks the centaur is done attacking, it wheels around and swings its hammer one more time.

hammer again!: 1d20 + 14 + 2 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 14 + 2 + 4 + 1 = 35

The hammer goes right through another image. Meanwhile, Alden continues to suffer from being encased in ice.

Sue Will save: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27

Sue saves, and takes none of the negative energy damage thanks to her nexus crystal. PHEW!

For my own edification, what is the spell-like ability that the centaur used to encase me in ice? I thought at first it was a witch's Ice Tomb hex, but that doesn't involve a touch attack. :)

The hammer was special. You'll see it on your chronicle sheet. :)

Waiting on Exiel, and on 42's stabilisation.

Exiel keeps stabbing, hoping to take the centaur down before Alden succumbs to the ice.

damage: 1d8 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 22

[dice=stable]1d20-2 That might have killed me... dead..

I have you at -1hp and stable.

Exiel drives his hooked lance through the centaur's chest. The equestrian spits a curse as he pulls himself along the haft of the lance towards Exiel and raises his hammer...then slumps lifeless to the ground, the hammer dropping to the ground with a loud thud.

Meanwhile Alden continues to freeze, but Exiel is now able to attend to the rest of you as he chooses.

(Is it pvp if Exiel chooses not to free Alden and lets him freeze to death?)

Deep within the cavern stands a ring of menhirs that encircle a yawning pit more than 50 feet wide. A long flight of stone-carved stairs coils along its inner perimeter, descending 120 feet down into the darkness. The bottom of the pit is covered with the countless bones, mostly humanoid.

A large, ironbound chest sits on the floor near the standing stones. It is locked, but a quick search of the centaur yields the key to the chest, which contains coins, rough-cut gems, art objects, and jewelry worth 12,000 gp in total.

Exiel will break Alden free as soon and as quickly as he can.

Those had better be enough lol.

As soon as Alden is free, he will lay on hands on Sue and 42 once each. Sorry guys that's all I've got.

Sue: 1d6 ⇒ 4
42: 1d6 ⇒ 5
That should be enough to wake them both?

Then he turns his attention to the pit, scanning it with detect magic as he looks into it.

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31

"Hmm...There is nothing of apparent value among the dusty, aged bones apart a single blue dragon scale lying on the stone floor in an area cleared of bones. But the pit itself seems to radiate a strong aura of necromancy..."

"Well, it's a good thing I'm naturally resilient to necromancy," he declares as he takes a deep breath, casts protection from evil on himself, then trots down into the pit to retrieve the scale.

42 is laying on the ground. owwwwwwwwwwwww
