Plunder and Peril Ship 1 (Inactive)

Game Master Matthais777

I'm a dufus... I should be able to take 10 on this right?

"Watch that spot there..." Dragos comments, holding his side. He approaches the narrow passage a little more carefully this time, relying on his natural dexterity to ease himself past.

Escape Artist Take 10: 10 + 5 = 15

Setare looks at the black sharp substance and tries to get through!

Escape Artist, reduce person +2 Dex: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 10 + 1 = 16

Socraties looks carefully at the small gap, contemplates his skills and decides to just take it nice and easy to get through.

Jack, Nyvorlas, I have something that might help you two get through if you want it.He pulls a pair of vials from his sack Some alchemical grease, it will make you nice and slick, just rub it all over yourself and viola, slicker than an ooze.

alchemical grease adds +5 to escape artist checks and against being grappled for 4 hours or until washed off.

See you on the other side.

escape artist take 10: 10 + 7 = 17

Thanking the ever helpful elf, Nyvorlas begins to slather the grease along his shoulders and arms. As he does he hears chuckles from behind him.

”My love, that is not nice to mock me.” he chides his wife as he sniffs the grease.

Fully lathered, the elf still turns sideways as he shimmies through the cracks to join his friends.

Eascpe Artist take 10: 10 + 5 = 15

Jack greases himself up, and also takes 10 on the check.

Escape Artist: 10 + 5 + 2 = 17

This large chamber has a sixty-foot-high ceiling supported by several thick stone columns. The worked stone of the southwest wall remains uncovered by coral, and is decorated with engravings of crude giant figures and roughly formed runes. The columns have markings chiseled into them as well, in what could be many different styles of handwriting.
Smashed stone tables and oversized benches are piled in the southeastern section of the room. Beyond the rubble, a tunnel slopes down to the east, and another descends from the southwest corner.

The team easily hears the sounds of creatures coming up the hallway! As they turn to meet the threat, they see zombies rush into the room... something is wrong though. The 4 zombies seem to have shellfish like creatures over their heads that pulse and beat like a strange cross between a brain and a heart. They also drip the same black ichor as before.

The creatures howl, and prepare to attack!

Init Setare: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
Init Nyvorlas : 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
Init Dragos: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

Init Black Ichor thing3: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Init Black Ichor thing4: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Two of things run up, howling at Setare! They move like zombies, but things on their heads lash out at her!

Tendril: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16
damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Tendril: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Setare is far to fast on her feat for these ugly things though! They don't even come close!

Setare is glad that they did not hit!

She attacks with her Scimitar.

Scimitar +1 attack roll : 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 15
Damage roll, precise strike: 1d6 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 4 = 12

In case Setare is attacked she uses 'Opportune Parry' and parries by expending an AoO to parry and spends a panache point (so if the attack roll of tshe opponent is lower than Setare's parry then the opponent does not hit and Setare could potentially Riposte)

Opportune Parry: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31

In case Setare successfully parries she uses 'Riposte' as an immediate action to attack the opponent that attacked her.

Scimitar +1 Riposte attack roll: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27
Damage Riposte roll : 1d6 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 4 = 17

Using Bodyguard feat to increase melee allies’ AC by +4 with aid another by using AoOs against the opponent’s next attack (succees on every roll that is not a natural 1):

Bodyguard 1 : 1d20 ⇒ 2; Bodyguard 2 : 1d20 ⇒ 19; Bodyguard 3 : 1d20 ⇒ 5 Bodyguard 4 : 1d20 ⇒ 3

GM - Just noticed something as I look at the map. Dragos has Combat Reflexes, which allows him a bunch of extra AoOs, and the ability to take them even when flat-footed. With his whip (which he threatens with thanks to Improved Whip Mastery) he has a 15' reach, so anything coming into melee with him will certainly provoke. It looks like both of the creatures that attacked Setare must have come through that. I'll roll for my attacks here and you can adjudicate as necessary.

As the strange, seemingly mind-controlling shellfish approach, Dragos whip cracks impossibly fast.

AoO #1: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26 for Weapon of Awe: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

AoO #2: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28 for Weapon of Awe: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14

Nifty.

Dragos cracks his whip with impossible speed, the whip slapping against zombie bodies with a loud TWAP!

Setare follows up with a slash that neatly severs the things head. The zombie's head groans from the ground as the THING that was on the ground seperates from the head, looking up at them with strange, horrible, inhuman eyes. As it withdraws needletipped tendrils from the zombies head, the head goes still...

Another zombie thing tries to rush forward and attack Setare... who gets the hang of it now and headshots the zombie again, sending the head tumbling. The shellfish like thing releases the head, also staring at the group... those tendrils look awfully sharp...

Dragos pulls the business end of his whip back and invokes the name of his goddess. She answers his call, sending the power of lightning into his sacred weapon. With a thunderous crack, Dragos attacks the shellfish, not keen to get any of the clearly mind-controlling goop on himself.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15 for Weapon of Awe plus shock damage: 1d8 + 8 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 8 + (6) = 16

For a little speed boost I am going to go ahead and roll the knowledge check I will make when my turn comes so that Starson can give us the info in his next post.

knowledge: 1d20 + 13 + 1d6 ⇒ (10) + 13 + (1) = 24

The little thing scuttles away from the cracking whip, the tiny thing annoyingly hard to hit.

Socraties quickly identifies these as Incutilis. They are not particularly dangerous from a combat standpoint, but if they succeed in rendering you helpless, they can drill their tendrils into your brain, killing you instantly and taking over your body.

The final thing makes a run at dragos this time (I assume provoking)

Tendrils!: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Socraties already has his flags as he has kept it out ever since walking in. He begins to sing (standard action), but otherwise holds his ground, not believing his resources need spent on this little scuttle.

Inspire Courage and Flagbearer in effect, +2 to hit and damage, +1 to saves against charm and fear.

Nyvorlas and Moselle breathe a sigh of relief as Setare and Dragos hack and whip the creatures.

"I shall try to keep them away from us" once again he thrusts out with his mind. He tries to form a picture in the Incutilis’ head of a world, similar but different that our own. In this world all the cursed Numerian machines have taken over. Each metallic head the Incutilis latches on to and bores into with it’s needle tendrils can only find wires.

Cast Cause Fear at the one in front of Moselle. DC 15 Will Save or become Frightened. Successful save - Shaken for 1 Round.
Frightened Rounds: 1d4 ⇒ 1

Stepping forward, Moselle slams the creature.

Ectoplasmic Slam #1: 1d20 + 6 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 6 + 4 = 27
Ecotplasmic Slam damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Ectoplasmic Slam #2: 1d20 + 6 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 4 = 20
Ecotplasmic Slam damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Miserable Strike DC 14 Will save -2 attack and damage for 1 round

Dazzling Display: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16
If you are successful, the target is shaken for one round. This duration increases by 1 round for every 5 by which you beat the DC.

AoO: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21 for weapon of awe plus shock and IC: 1d8 + 10 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 10 + (2) = 18

Drago's whip cracks again, the smell of ozone permeating the air with each thunderous retort. Pressing his advantage, the leather thong thunders through the air again.

Attack: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23 for weapon of awe plus shock and IC: 1d8 + 10 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 10 + (5) = 19

Ok, so having lots of AoOs seems fun, but only having 1 attack right now feels... slow. Eek! Oh well, he is still fun so far!

Jack maneuvers to the south, and swings at the south-eastern zombie thing.

Attack: 1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 12 + 2 + 2 = 36
Damage: 2d4 + 9 + 6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (4, 2) + 9 + 6 + 2 + 2 = 25

Attack Confirm: 1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 12 + 2 + 2 = 26
Extra Damage: 2d4 + 9 + 6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (3, 3) + 9 + 6 + 2 + 2 = 25

Moselle smashes one of the scuttly crab things, and Dragos smashes another as Jack steps up and cuts the head off a zombie before crushing the scuttling creature.

Setare attacks with her Scimitar to damage the first Ichor thing.

Scimitar +1 attack roll : 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14
Damage roll, non-lethal +1, precise strike: 1d6 + 7 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 1 + 4 = 17

In case Setare is attacked she uses 'Opportune Parry' and parries by expending an AoO to parry and spends a panache point (so if the attack roll of tshe opponent is lower than Setare's parry then the opponent does not hit and Setare could potentially Riposte)

Opportune Parry: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26

In case Setare successfully parries she uses 'Riposte' as an immediate action to attack the opponent that attacked her.

Scimitar +1 Riposte attack roll: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23
Damage Riposte roll, non-lethal : 1d6 + 7 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 1 + 4 = 15

Using Bodyguard feat to increase melee allies’ AC by +4 with aid another by using AoOs against the opponent’s next attack (succees on every roll that is not a natural 1):

Bodyguard 1 : 1d20 ⇒ 8; Bodyguard 2 : 1d20 ⇒ 10; Bodyguard 3 : 1d20 ⇒ 19

Setare's intital attack misses! But as the thing leaps at her, she slices it out of the air. This sudden strike is followed up by attacks from Dragos who finish it, and the weakened other scuttly thing.

PATHFINDERS WIN! VICTORY!

the cave goes silent for a moment.

”These we... were truly disgusting cre... creatures! Let u... us continue to fi... find the Captain!“ Setare says hesitantly.

Setare searches the area and is ready to proceed.

"We ain't far now..." Dragos predicts, taking a blade out to make sure the creatures are all dead, and stay that way.

He double checks his work in tracking the Captain's tracks and sets off to follow them.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Nyvorlas and Moselle follow closely behind.

Socraties drops his singing and follows behind Dragos keeping his flag out.

This dark cavern of slimy black coral is drowned in stagnant salt water. Dozens of corpses— sharks, fish, humans, and stranger things—float on the surface in various states of decomposition. Some are covered in black chitin while others are pale and broken. A stair of black coral winds downward from east to west along the northern wall. A sagging rope bridge in the western part of the cavern dips almost to the surface of the water. On the southwest side of the underground cove floats a massive old ship. The ship’s tattered rigging and waterlogged boards creak lightly in the silent cavern, and limp floating corpses surround its blackened hull, like mourners at a grotesque wake.

In the distance, standing in the middle of the ship, you can see the Captain. Captain Varossa Lanteri stands on the deck, her rapier and pistol drawn for battle. Glittering gold chains circle her neck and a thin silver tiara tilts unevenly on her forehead. Her arms and torso are covered in black chitin. Dangling from her belt is a large, curved horn comprising three interlocking pieces.

She does not seem to be moving at all, just standing in place in the middle of the ship as if locked in place.

Setare immediately takes a deep breath.

”Captain, Ca... Captain! We are he... here to help you! Ha... Have you been atta... attacked? Please le... let us talk!“ she says eager to make peace.

Odd behavior that, just standing there. Maybe she has a creature attached to her head. Either way, down thar be the way to the treasure. No reason to delay. Lets go give her what she has coming.

Jack will cast Expeditious Retreat and Protection from Evil on himself before heading down the stairs.

"This black taint is everywhere in this cavern, looks maybe like it might've gotten the captain too. Careful, she's a keen shot with that pistol. Even still, methinks whatever that black coral is be the bigger threat. All the gold in the world won't matter if ye lose yer mind afore you can spend it." Dragos warns as he moves toward the tattered rope bridge.

Socraties follows behind Dragos.

The team moves onto the gangplank, and the Captain stands there... she doesn't seem to move at all, standing stock still.

Sense Motive+Inspiration: 1d20 + 15 + 1d6 ⇒ (14) + 15 + (2) = 31

She isn't acting on her own, she is being controlled, but she is still in there. I know some of you want her dead either way, but lets at least give her a chance to talk, it is likely one of those Incutulis, maybe if we can find it and cut it off of her she will be okay.

"I'm thinking this be a bit like what we saw on Creed, just more advanced. There got ta be a brain around here somewhere..." Dragos flicks his whip as he scans the room, ceiling and walls.

"Might be in tha ship, and the captain be it's new guard dog. She can't rightly face justice when she ain't got control o her own mind. I expect she'll fight back when we get close enough. Let's see if I can do somethin about that pistol..."

Dragos calls upon his goddess, asking for the most divine of favors, then advances carefully towards the woman, expecting her to fire off a shot when he gets close enough. As soon as he closes in on the outer range of his whip, he coils his arm back, ready to flick the end at the firearm.

So casting divine favor then I would like to get to 15' away and attempt to disarm the captain of her pistol. Not sure at what point that sparks initiative, so let me know!

”Oh no!! Please! Let’s not hurt her!!!“ Setare says fluently without stuttering as if the danger sparked some willpower inside of her.

Much like Dragos, once we get right before crossing onto the ship, Jack will also cast Divine Favor.

Don't think this is gonna happen peacably Setare. Best prepare yourself for a fight.

The moment Dragos steps onto the ship, the captain whips her gun and rapier about!

Init Setare: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27
Init Nyvorlas : 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
Init Dragos: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
Init Socrates: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
Init Jack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Captain Varossa Lanteri: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23

Dragos prepares to attack, but the Captain moves with lightning quick reflexes, catching him flat footed as she pulls the trigger!

Pistol: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12
Damage: 1d8 + 4d6 ⇒ (4) + (2, 6, 4, 2) = 18

But the gun seems badly aimed, and it doesn't even graze him, though the railing behind him that's now missing a chunk speaks to the damage of the weapon.

Dragos will go first for "Initiating" combat and then we'll go into normal rounds from there.

”Oh no!!!“

Setare moves forward and attacks with her Scimitar and only does non-lethal damage.

Due to ‚Blade of Mercy‘ trait: Non-lethal damage has no -4 to hit and has +1 to damage.

Scimitar +1 attack roll : 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17
Scimitar damage roll : 1d6 + 7 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 1 + 4 = 14

In case Setare is attacked she uses 'Opportune Parry' and parries by expending an AoO to parry and spends a panache point (so if the attack roll of tshe opponent is lower than Setare's parry then the opponent does not hit and Setare could potentially Riposte)

Opportune Parry: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (20) + 13 = 33

In case Setare successfully parries she uses 'Riposte' as an immediate action to attack the opponent that attacked her.

Scimitar +1 Riposte attack roll: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25
Damage Riposte roll, non-lethal : 1d6 + 7 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 1 + 4 = 17

Using Bodyguard feat to increase melee allies’ AC by +4 with aid another by using 4 AoOs against the opponent’s next attack (succees on every roll that is not a natural 1):

Bodyguard 1 : 1d20 ⇒ 16; Bodyguard 2 : 1d20 ⇒ 1; Bodyguard 3 : 1d20 ⇒ 13, Bodyguard 4 : 1d20 ⇒ 11

Expecting the shot, but not expecting it to come so quick, the wily old pirate is taken off guard. He recovers quick enough though and snaps his whip forward, arcing the leather towards the barrel of the pistol. He folds his wrist, trying to time it perfectly to spin the end of the leather thong tightly around the weapon, and yank it out of the captain's hand.

Disarm Attempt w/ divine favor: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 11 + 2 = 33

Dragos is rewarded with a perfect snap and pull. The grin on his face is unquenchable.

The captain glares as the pistol is yanked from her hands. Apparently, even mind controlled she does not appreciate someone touching her precious pistol. When Setare moves up to her and swings, She dodges nimbly to the side before taking a step back and snapping her fingers, disappearing.

Immediately recognizing the spell for vanish, likely to get another attempt at a sneak attack, Socraties pulls a tanglefoot bag from his backpack in hopes of pinning her to her position.

Aiming at square she vanished in.

She's gonna stick me first... Dragos assumes, knowing he has overextended himself past his companions.

Expecting that an attack is coming, Dragos reaches into one of his bandoliers and pulls out a potion, popping the cork and drinking it down.

Hope that's enough! he grins and waits for the captain to appear with her blade in his side.

Draw and drink a potion of barkskin +2. AC is now 26 regular, 21 flat footed.

Jack will move to where she was and take a slash.

Miss chance, high hits: 1d100 ⇒ 56

Setare starts to detect evil in the area the Captain was last seen.

Nyvorlas and Moselle step forward scanning the area.

Nyvorlas Perception: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 12 + 2 = 31
Moselle Perception aid: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

Hopefully she tired to move

Socrates toss his tanglebag... and it unhelpfully "PLOPS" where she had been. Jack takes a swing himself, but finds nothing but air where he swings.

Setare attempts to scan for evil, but doesn't sense anything... Nor do Nyvorlas and Moselle....

Which is unfortunate as she appears out of thin air next to Jack...

Rapier: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29
Damage: 5d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 5, 1, 6) = 20
and sinks her rapier deep into his side. She reaches towards her hip as if to pull a dagger...

Bluff Fient: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13

but is she?

Seeing the captain appear and plunge her rapier deep into Jack, Nyvorlas grits his teeth and moves closer to the action. As he scurries closer, he conjures up images of the captain's dead husband to torment her psyche.

Cast Cause Fear DC 15 Will Save or become Frightened. Successful save - Shaken for 1 Round.

Jack wheels around, slashing at the Captain.

Ooof, not doing yerself any favors here captain...

I included a +4 from a flank with setare (+4 from outflank), and a +3 from Socraties. Please reduce my result appropriately if either of those actions don't happen.

Dragos cringes when it is Jack who get stuck and not himself. He quicksteps onto the deck of the ship, trying to get around to flank the mind-controlled captain.

"I can't get around, step to her side Jack!" Dragos shouts.

Jack, you can 5' step to flank with me if you need to.

"Aye Besmara, I'll pay ye in blood if ye help me now..." the pirate smiles. His weapon tingles with energy suddenly, causing pricks of pain to radiate through his palm, and Dragos knows that his goddess is with him.

With a thunderous crack, Dragos snaps his whip forward.

Add vicious enchant with the sacred weapon ability, still have weapon of awe and divine favor active, post assumes +2 from inspire courage, as well as a +2 for flanking with Jack.

Blood oozes from Dragos nose as the whip does it's damage. "Besmara be praised." he says through gritted teeth.

”That’s enough! I say no!!!“

Setare steps forward to flaand attacks with her Scimitar and only does non-lethal damage.

Due to ‚Blade of Mercy‘ trait: Non-lethal damage has no -4 to hit and has +1 to damage.

Scimitar +1 attack roll : 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19

In case Setare is attacked she uses 'Opportune Parry' and parries by expending an AoO to parry and spends a panache point (so if the attack roll of tshe opponent is lower than Setare's parry then the opponent does not hit and Setare could potentially Riposte)

Opportune Parry: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (16) + 13 = 29
