Dwarves of Gold Peak

Game Master Nathanael Love

An elephant! If anything was going to get past their defenses it was going to be that. Trying his best to ignore the arrows flying around him and launched a spear at it.

Hit Elephant: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (2, 2) + 8 = 12

Wolf AoO: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
Dmg.: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Vargas continued to focus on his bolstering of the front line bringing the wand of healing again to heal Thurgrom’s wounds. Meanwhile Bruggi stepped into a better position to swing the chain at the foes breasting the wall.

Wand of Cure Light: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Bruggi dorn-derger attack with power attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22 for damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Thugrom's attacks finishes the wounded wolf, and Tawny tears into the new one, hitting with its bite and the opportunity attack.

Ungebrochen attemps to daze the orc in between the fences:
Will: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

The orc sits in the saddle dazed, his wolf confused at the lack of commands.

Rubius arrows finish the orc rider who had failed to cross the fence, and his wolf paces for a minute unsure what to do.

Kragg easily hits the elephant, but you can tell that the beast is very hardy.

Several of the orcs rush and ride forward into the grease area:
Reflex: 1d20 ⇒ 4
Reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Another orc charges onto the final trap!
Attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (6, 1) + 3 = 10

The spider webs one orc, and two others carefully maneuver to attack it.

Strength: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

They make short work of the spider, chopping its 8 limbs clean off!

Elephant Strength check to break free:
Strength: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

The orcs atop its back fire!

One of the leader's arrows hits Thurgrom, but the others clatter aside uselessly!

Status at the end of the round:

That will bring up round 11!

”What are you doing?! Kill the orcs! The elephant is far too large to kill! And I don’t think it is going to rampage.”

”I said shut it. If we don’t stop it that thing will go right through our defenses!”

Hit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (2, 5) + 8 = 15
Elephant Damage: 9+12+15=36

Kragg put another stone spear into the elephant, over the protests of his familiar. Usually his familiar was right. Was he wasting his time? Getting his comrades killed? Perhaps. But he was as stubborn as any dwarf, and he had set his mind to this.

Tawny tears at the nearest orc viciously

Attack: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 7 - 1 + 1 = 26
Attack: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 7 - 1 + 1 = 11
Attack: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 7 - 1 + 1 = 13
Bite: 1d6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 2 = 10
Claw: 1d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 2 = 5
Claw: 1d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 2 = 8

Rubius now accepts the held out flaming arrows from Olaf. "Atta boy!" and fires them at the elephant, trying to hit anything flammable it might be wearing or simply the beast itself if there's no better target.

Attacks: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13
Attacks: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19
Dam: 1d8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 2 = 6+1 point of fire damage
Dam: 1d8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 + 2 = 12+1 point of fire damage

Vargas unleashed another curse under his breath as the arrow struck Thurgrom and he simply repeated the command word to invoke further healing.

Bruggi again employs the reach of his weapon to attack those seeking over the wall.

Wand of Cure Light: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Bruggi power attack dorn-derger: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15 for damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Ungebrochen attempted to keep the orc dazed-
Will: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15

Bruggi missed the orc, as it urged its wolf to climb the wall!
Climb: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

This provokes from Thurgrom and Bruggi/recruit 2

Filtering in across the wall, the orc chops at the young dwarf!

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

Kragg's arrow easily hit the elephant, but the beast seemed unpahsed and continued to try to pull free.
Strength: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29

Now free, the elephant begins moving forward again!

Unable to reach an orc, Tawny mauls the wolf in front of him again.

One of Rubius' arrows finds purchase sticking into the elephants neck and causing it to let out a bellow.

Orc in the grease:
Acrobatics: 1d20 ⇒ 8
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

Orc breaking free from the spider web:
Strength: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13

Orc breaking free from trap:
Strength: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

The elephant riders fire again!

Vargas takes one arrow from the leader!

The other orcs begin to swarm forward, looking at though they plan to begin climbing walls again!

Status at the end of the round:

Pending from last round: Durnim and Thurgrom can attack the chartreuse wolf, Thurgrom and Bruggi can AOO the wolf or the wolf rider with the blue border, then we have the party's actions for round 12 before the orcs go again.

Hit Elephant: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (1, 1) + 8 = 10

”Don’t say a word Ye blasted bird, ruining my aim!”

Another spear went into the elephant. It was free! They had to take it down.

Tawny continues to tear at the wolf in front of him.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 7 - 1 + 1 = 19
Attack: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 7 - 1 + 1 = 10
Attack: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 7 - 1 + 1 = 24

Dam: 1d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 2 = 8
Dam: 1d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 2 = 7

Rubius keeps firing the incendiary arrows held out by Olaf into the massive elephant, hoping to drive it off.

Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20
Dam: 1d8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 + 2 = 12
Dam: 1d8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 + 2 = 12

Round 11
Despite the chaos of battle around him, Thurgrom picks his targets with forethought. As an orc (blue border) makes it over the barricade, the mynrughdaer slices at him with his waraxe.
Dwarven Waraxe: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
Dmg.: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
Using the momentium of the previous swing, Thurgrom shifts his body to attack the wolf rider (chartreuse) attempting to storm the barricade.
Dwarven Waraxe: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Dmg.: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

Oh wow. I didn't realize it had been so many rounds of this tunnel fight. My shots for round eleven are at -2 attk and -2 damage from what I've written above.

"By the cracked anvil!" Vargas swore as an arrow found him amongst his companions and he turned the wand to heal himself this time.
Cure Light Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Bruggi gritted teeth and swung as opportunity allowed.
Bruggi AoO power attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8 for damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Then stepping back to allow his brethen if needed he swung again.
Bruggi power attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18 for damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Kragg and Rubius continue to put arrows into into the elephant, it's blood starting to flow into the cave floor.

Thurgrom chops into the orc besides him, then turns and strikes the wolf, as he turns back to face the orc, Tawny finishes the wolf in a flurry of claws and teeth.

Another strike, and the orc that had made it across the fence goes down.

The orcs on foot have all moved to cluster the far and and begin climbing the fences!
Climb: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
Climb: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16
Climb: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

The elephant charges and slams into the fence, trying to bring it down!
Strength: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21

Meanwhile the orcs on its back take aim at new targets, trying to bring down the back line recruits!

Shortbow: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Bruggi is hit by the leader's powerful bow!

Status at the end of the round:

I'm pulling the orange orc out of play- he actually can't possibly break the traps. That will bring up round 13!

Hit Elephant: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 5) + 8 = 16

This was what was called a target rich environment. Forming another spear, Kragg stubbornly continued throwing his projectiles at the elephant.

”Kill the leader! What are you doing? It actually knows how to use a bow!” Khazuk tweeted in fear. The bird had been much happier in the mines, giving engineering advice and pointing out proper etiquette in the hold. The din of battle was an unwelcome experience.

Unbeugsam tries his luck to daze the leader!

Ok if the guys on the elephant are high enough to shoot the recruits, I'll assume that the recruits can shoot them.

Olaf fires at the threatening orcs.

Recruit shoot leader: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 3 + 1 = 21
Dam: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Rubius keeps working on the elephant.

Rubius: 1d20 + 7 - 2 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 7 - 2 + 1 + 3 = 16
Rubius: 1d20 + 7 - 2 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 7 - 2 + 1 + 3 = 21
Dam: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
Dam: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Tawny attacks anything in reach!

Tawny attack: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 1 - 1 = 16
Tawny attack: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (11) + 7 + 1 - 1 = 18
Tawny attack: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 1 - 1 = 16
Dam: 1d6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 2 = 8
Dam: 1d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 2 = 6
Dam: 1d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 2 = 8

That last heal was supposed to be on Vargas, but that's ok. Also what is the lighting conditions in here (how is the mammoth seeing?)

As Bruggi moves back into line and readied his dorn-derger for when the next orc came into the long reach of his weapon Vargas noted the deep wound caused by the arrow and invoke upon his wands curing again.

Cure Light Wounds on Bruggi: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Recruit Shoot Elephant: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Makes Rubius 17/22 to Hit Elephant

The dwarves continue firing into the elephant, and finally- it goes down!

Tawny tears down an orc as it scrambles up the wall, and the other orcs begin to attempt to climb!

Most make it across, but trap themselves temporarily into the area between where they are sitting ducks of a type.

Will Save: 1d20 ⇒ 4

The leader stands dazed by Ungebrochen's spell!

The sergeants leap from the back of the elephant, using their height to advantage to try to clear the fences!

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

They then try to climb:
Climb: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21
Climb: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16
Climb: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

The last orc tries to get out of the grease:
Acrobatics: 1d20 ⇒ 1

Status at the end of the round:

That brings up attacks of opportunity and then round 14-- Vargas, Tawny, and Thurgrom all have pending attacks of opportunity, and Durnim if he has reach, then the party's actions-- every melee combatant can reach down into the trench to attack so there are valid melee targets for everyone this round.

”I knew you could do it! Never doubted you for a second. Now the orc leader!”

”If ye won’t stop talking at least try not to embarrass me...” Kragg muttered as he threw a stone hammer at the orcish leader.

Hit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (6, 6) + 8 = 20

"Hah, stone bests flesh!" Vargas cried as the elephant swayed and then fell after the rain of blows from Kragg. He did not allow the distraction to sway him from continued use of the wand although.

Cure Light Wand on Vargas: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Bruggi took the attack from his place of safety before moving and swinging again.

Dmg.: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

We're still pending actions from Rubius/Tawny, Durnim, and Thurgrom's ordinary attack, waiting before I resolve this round.

Tawny tears into the north orc in front of him with raging joy.
Attack: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 1 - 1 = 13
Attack: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 1 - 1 = 16

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Dam: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Dam: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Khazuk watched the battle from up above, looking at the orcs nervously. Then the small bird saw the raging Tawny and it’s savage joy. The little Thrush wasn’t sure which scared her more, orc or cat.

Thuirgrom steps over to the advancing orc (in orange) and attacks.
Dwarven Waraxe (w/Bless): 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 1 = 26
Dmg.: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

The dwarves unleash! Several strike one orc, and Thurgrom finishes him off with a chop! Tawny mauls another as it tries to climb!

kragg's attack wounds the dazed leader!

The leader attempting to shake off the daze:
Will: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14

The leader stands dazed again!

Hit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (5, 5) + 8 = 18

Kragg winged as his Familiar insulted his comrades. Hoping nobody caught it he kept throwing more stone weapons.

Unbeugsam keeps up his magic weaving strands of drowsiness around the orcleader.

Vargas spun to the next wounded dwarf to finish bolstering the dwarven line prior to the clash with the orcs as melee engaged.

Cure Light Wand on Durnim: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Dwarven Waraxe (w/Bless): 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 7 + 1 = 19
Dmg.: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Hearing the dwarven cry of pain Vargas moved back out of the line of defenders with the comment "Hold the spot open here, I'll be back." He then approached behind the wounded recruit with wand.

Bruggi swung again at the orcs, ready to extend the chain or shorten it as needed to reach the foes.

Cure Light Wand on Recruit 5: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Bruggi attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9 for damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Round 15

Thurgrom reacts quickly, slapping at the orc blue border and cutting into him.

The Dwarf turns, chopping into the orc leader then. The leader spits blood down his chin, but fights on!

Tawny mauls the orc by him, shredding it but leaving the orc dark green border still barely standing.

Another recruit joins the top of the wall near Kragg, and stabs at the Light green orc, cutting into it.

Kragg's spear lashes out across the battlefield, impaling the orc leader and putting him down finally!

Most of the orcs turn and flee, and as their comrades exit the battlefield the few with the stomach to fight to the death press on!
