Year of Our Lord 1437 Pathfinder RAW PVP Combined Tables 1 & 2

Game Master Michael Johnson 66

Moving on to the double doors at area 28 when the party is ready...

From the guest rooms and antechamber, the adventurers move on through the fifth level of the Catacombs to a pair of double doors, each twelve feet high and six feet wide, and crafted of solid oak reinforced with bronze bands, engraved with sinister images of devils and demons tormenting the souls of the damned. The bronze bands are graven with arcane glyphs and sigils...

"Well. This lookss sssafe, doesssn't it?" Johann reaches out his head to push against the door before pulling back at the last second.

"Just kidding. No one is THAT sssstupid."

Ihrin will look for traps

Perception: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (10) + 26 = 36
Disarm: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (12) + 25 = 37

"Living dangerously I see" She says with a stern almost intense stare with a slight smile on her lips.

Ihrin will look for traps

[dice=Perception]1d20+26
[dice=Disarm]1d20+25

The doors were indeed warded with magical glyphs and deadly sigils...

But Lady Ihrin was no longer the young novice thief that Count Vlad Dracul had raised as his own daughter...

Trained in the ways of thievery by the most talented Romanian Gypsy Master Thieves, she was now their equal, thanks to her brief but intense adventuring career as one of The Mighty Ones...

Within a few minutes time, she skillfully negated each of the potent warding glyphs and spell sigils warding the double doors...

Well done, Lady Ihrin!

For your convenience, MAP OF LEVEL 5 OF THE CATACOMBS...

Beyond the double doors, a short hallway opens into a large chamber with flagstone floor and walls decorated with murals depicting the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse riding down masses of humanity stricken by plagues, pestilence, war and death...

A corridor opens in the south wall, leading a short distance to a crossroads or junction of corridors...

Against the far wall of this chamber, flanked by a pair of black-and-red-striated marble columns, hangs a large black tapestry bearing a red sigil of sinister aspect...

As the Mighty Ones peer into the gloom of the great chamber ahead, a fearsome entity suddenly materializes in front of the black tapestry with the sinister scarlet sigil!

A mantis-like fiend, towering twice the height of a grown man, with bone-white exoskeleton graven with azure-glowing glyphs and sigils of diabolical significance, a gleam of alien malice and genius in its bulbous, multifaceted eyes, clutches a giant barbed spear of icy blue steel, coated with frost! It hisses at the Mighty Ones with hatred, and projects a telepathic message into their minds:

Woe unto thee, Ye Mighty Ones... For how the mighty are fallen! Bow down before the Azure Duke, and thy deaths shalt be swift!

AGAINST THE AZURE DUKE! STARTING POSITIONS!

DEVIL-FIGHTING MUSIC PROVIDED BY EPIC-LEVEL BARDS WOLFMOTHER!

'Stop whimpering Kiku, this Azure Duke seems powerful but then again he is not the only demon in the room!"Mwikali says as her eyes flash with her power and smiles.

"Let us see if in the end who is begging for a merciful death"

'Stop whimpering Kiku, this Azure Duke seems powerful but then again he is not the only demon in the room!"Mwikali says as her eyes flash with her power and smiles.

"Let us see if in the end who is begging for a merciful death"

Kiku covers his eyes with his wings and hirps: Right then, Mistress 'Kali! Go get 'im!

The ice devil hisses and assumes a posture of summoning...

So, thou shalt defy me!? It seems thine familiar hath greater wit than the rest of thee! So mote it be then... Come and meet thy doom!!

LORD P!! THEN OGON FOX!! EEEK!!!

"I trust Kikus' judgement, You are powerful,I said as much, what you failed to realize is I said you weren't the only Demon in the room" She says shifting her weight from one hip to the other.

"Though I could see how a creature such as yourself could forget the power we mortals have here in our home realm?Why I believe you are the guest here or am I wrong?"

It looks like all the melee types (Lady Ihrin, Cobra Johann, Sir Alphonse and Ogon Fox) are within a single move of the ice devil...

*HIIISSSSS!!* Thou speakest with a brave tongue from behind yon ruffians of thine, Witch of Africa... Kneel before me, and I shall kill thee swiftly!

TOP DOWN VIEW OF STARTING POSITIONS, SHOWING MOST OF LEVEL 5...

Sir Alphonse is actually in the square behind Cobra Johann...

"I'm a lover, not a fighter My dear Azure, My skills and powers will come when needed until then I leave the heavy lifting to my faithful friends and companions" She says with a strong yet humble voice to the Gelugon, giving it a slight curtsy of respect.

"I'm a lover, not a fighter My dear Azure, My skills and powers will come when needed until then I leave the heavy lifting to my faithful friends and companions" She says with a strong yet humble voice to the Gelugon, giving it a slight curtsy of respect.

As wise as thou art beautiful, Witch of Africa... Well do we know the prowess of your "heavy lifters" in the Pits of Hell...

Pointing its giant, frosty, barbed spear at Sir Alphonse, its mandibles clack repeatedly! *CLICK!-CLICK!-CLICK!-CLICK!-CLICK!-CLICK!*...There stands the Oath Keeper, hated Paladin of the Christ, Sir Alphonse du Veritas, who wields the fearsome scythe FOEREAPER!! Many are the fiends this Holy Reaper shall cut down like the grass... It hath been foretold...

Then to Cobra Johann points the frosty spear: And there coils the Black Forester, Johann Coldborne, Werebeast of the Schwartzwald! Skinwalker who can take form of ancient Cave Bear, giant mo-bat, or great cobra, as he now rears his fanged head!

Then marking Lady Ihrin with frozen spearhead: And yonder stands Contessa Dracula, Lady Ihrin Ardlean, master thief and honorable samurai in one lethal feminine form... The blood of her clan shall infect Wallachia with vampirism before the century turns...

Finally, the icy spearpoint aims at Ogon Fox: And there, the clever Fox, ever slipping through the snares and nooses of his enemies... Ogon Fox, who once masqueraded as human organist and composer from the Isles of the Rising Sun... Ogon Fox, who slipped through the web of the woman-spider, and mastered the Five Animal Stances of Shao Lin Temple under the training of masters Centipede and Scorpion, originally his bounty hunters turned instructors...

He certainly seems to know of us... chirps Kiku, quaking on Mwikali's shoulder...

"He does seem to know a lot Kiku, clearly we are dealing with nothing like we have in the past. Truly his master must think highly of us to send leave such an important creature here for us. However, why would he leave Azure here? Clearly a being of his caliber would be better suited to use elsewhere? I would surely have placed our fearsome foe in a place far more suitable to his prowess, or one to allow him to better ambush us. Instead, they leave him here." She pauses and looks at Azure.

"Tell me Lord Azure did he bind you here? Force you to wait for someone to come by and forbid them from progressing? I mean guard duty does not suit you Lord Azure, you are a warrior first one I would believe needs to lead armies of your kin across the squishy ground, which soon will be wet and slick with the blood of your enemies, and yet he forced you against your will to be bound here as a mere guard. The Nerve!" She says shaking her head as she then looks up.'I think Good Lord you deserve a master who believes you can do better than guard!you are Lord Azure, of the Frozen Wastes!" She proclaims boldly, in the end, hoping to maybe either distract, anger or persuade the Devil into talking more.

At Mwikali offer lord P thinks a moment.

"A year and a day, that's the fey way, to finish your task, so I can grant what you ask, but if fail to make, on that last day, to the land of the fey, the egg I will take."

He says binding the deal in rhyme .

At the sight of the Duke of Hell.

Lord P, flies strait to the Duke and in mid air bows.

"You not be knowing me Duke for I am not of this realm just as thee. This war of heaven and hell be not my afar. Its a battle of Devils and Angles over souls. And not having one, and not caring for one. I bid all that is due to thee. I am just a chronicler for my kin. And will I swear report true facts of what happens here. Be you win or lose this fight. So I will stand by and watch this if you please, But be warned your lord and masters own son was banished by the mighty ones here. But I know this fight you must have, for your master his father would be angry if you did not. So have at it Duke, I bid thee no malice."

Bowing again he flies up above and watch what comes to pass.

The ice devil seems to consider Lord Perpireen's words for the blink of an eye, which seems somehow more like a moment, rapidly replying in telepathic message to all the Mighty Ones: Ah. So. Thou hast defeated the Antichrist, then? Well... why didn't thou sayest so to begin with? In that case, by the Infernal Law, I am bound to either slay thee, or offer allegiance to thee... As a noble Duke of Hell, I shall grant thee the choice! Friend, or foe?

Bluff 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (4) + 22 = 26 vs PCs' Sense Motive checks, please...

Sense motive Untrained: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Ihrin has not been listening this whole time. Once he stopped looking at her she will move into the shadows and seek a postion in which to strike form the shadows.

Stealth: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26

"You offer us friendship?" the Fox asks in surprise. "I never thought I'd see such a day. But no, I don't think friendship is possible between us, Duke. Your kind is so wholly opposed to the work of our LORD, that we can be nothing but enemies. Though if Sir Alphonse has a differing opinion, I will defer to his judgement in a matter such as this."

"Maybe he should give up his true name?" She says as she taps her chin considering its offer.

[dice=Sense Motive]d20+8

"You offer us friendship?" the Fox asks in surprise. "I never thought I'd see such a day. But no, I don't think friendship is possible between us, Duke. Your kind is so wholly opposed to the work of our LORD, that we can be nothing but enemies. Though if Sir Alphonse has a differing opinion, I will defer to his judgement in a matter such as this."

Hearing Fox's words, the gelugon continues gesturing in a sinister manner suggesting summoning, but Ogon Fox is quicker...

Go ahead and take your actions, if any, before the ice devil summons in some infernal allies, Ogon Fox...

My truename shall ever remain a mystery unto thee, witch...

"You offer us friendship?" the Fox asks in surprise. "I never thought I'd see such a day. But no, I don't think friendship is possible between us, Duke. Your kind is so wholly opposed to the work of our LORD, that we can be nothing but enemies. Though if Sir Alphonse has a differing opinion, I will defer to his judgement in a matter such as this."

Alphonse shakes his head.

"Mortal evils can ever be redeemed; even the blackest soul can once again be cleansed in the light of Christ. But the fiends of the Pit speak with the forked tongue of the Serpent himself, and have no souls to redeem besides. The greatest mercy we could impart upon such a wretched creature, truthful or not, is a swift destruction."

Kn. Planes (What's a Gelugon?: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18

Concentration check to summon defensively 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (1) + 18 = 19 fails! It fails to summon a pair of bone devils to back it up because it is distracted and threatened by the wily Ogon Fox!

But Ice Tusk gores the devil in the loins! HIIIIISSSSS!!!

IF HE CAN'T DO IT, MWIKALI CAN!
OOH OOH AH AH AHHH!!!

So AC is now 30 for everyone and For Ihrin its 26, until the end of her next turn

Mwikali will step up to be within 30 feet and calling upon her power flip the strands of hair from her eyes and let the supernatural glow begin. Its sight boring into the very soul of the devil.

Evil Eye Hex, Will DC27, the target will suffer a -4 penalty to AC. If he fails his save it lasts 14 rounds if he succeeds then it is only 1 round. this is after Johanns' attack.

"If you truly were repentant, I hope that God's light may grant you some peace in your final moments."

*SNAP!!* Cobra Johann's jaws fail to find purchase in the icy white exoskeleton!

An icy, palpable aura of fear washes over the Mighty Ones as they close to melee distance with the Azure Duke, but Sir Alphonse's nonplussed expression and righteous wrath toward the devil overcomes the dread...

It tries to catch as many of the Mighty Ones as possible in a cone of cold, blasting only Ogon Fox and Lady Ihrin, who quickly flanked the gelugon with Sir Alphonse and Cobra Johann...

Trying to be as fair as possible without screwing the party, assuming that if you could see the battle mat, you'd move into positions that minimize its ability to catch you all in an area of effect while still flanking and surrounding as experienced adventurers would...

Casting defensively to avoid provoking AoOs from Sir Alphonse, Lady Ihrin, Ogon Fox and Cobra Johann...1d20 + 19 ⇒ (11) + 19 = 30 succeeds...

Cone of cold vs Ogon Fox and Lady Ihrin, Reflex save DC 20 halves or evades if you have evasion...13d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 4, 3, 4, 6, 1, 2, 4, 1, 6, 3, 1) = 38 cold damage!
