Qstor's 3.5e Kingdoms of Kalmar PbP Re-Recruitment

Game Master Qstor

Singol attacks again. He'll try to move into a position to flank with Haldyr if possible.

short sword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Haldyr will drop his bow, moving into flanking position with Singol while drawing his sword, and striking two-handed...

Magic Sword: 1d20 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 4 + 1 + 2 = 19
Cold Iron Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 1 = 10

Haldyr grabs the magic sword and it strikes true. Singol's and Duraz's blow have little or no effective on the magical
creature made of chalk.

botting Mirianna

Mwk rapier: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

She misses.

It attacks Singol and the eleven dancer again.

slam: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

slam: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

damage Singol 11, Mirianna 5, golem 12

party is up.

Haldyr has another go at the creature...

Magic Sword: 1d20 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 4 + 1 + 2 = 26
Cold Iron Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 = 7

Duraz uses his spell energy to cure Singol.

CLW: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

The chalk statue strikes a mighty blow against Singol. His world goes dark as the halfling crumples to the ground, his sword clattering against the stone.

Singol awakes with a start, his entire body tingling with a divine spark. He coughs as he breathes in chalk dust.

He reaches for his short sword.

rapier: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Duraz heals the halfling and the rangers magic sword cuts easily into it's side. While the dancer's blade doesn't do any damage. It swings at the elven dancer. But both it's arms flail about.

slam: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

slam: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

party is up again

damage Mirianna 5, golem 19

Mirianna swings again, ignoring her wounds:

MWK Rapier: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Singol attacks the golem while remaining on the ground.

short sword: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20
damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

At least Singol and Mirianna are getting great attack rolls :)

Duraz attempts to finish the golem off.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

@Singol: Well, somebody has to....

I pinged the Haldyr's player to see if he's still around

Haldyr is awol

He swings with the magic sword and connects with the creature.

attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

It swings at Singol.

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

damage golem 24

party is up again

MWK Rapier: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Haldyr swings again with his magic sword...

Magic Sword: 1d20 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 1 + 2 = 16
Cold Iron Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 = 7

Am I to understand that Singol is badly hurt?

I think Singol is at 3/14 and I am at 5/10

Unfortunately I'm out of spells.

Duraz swings his light mace hoping to finally fell the golem, flanking with Singol.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 5 + 2 = 21
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Am I to understand that Singol is badly hurt?

You could say that. Both attacks landed, since Singol was prone. He is down and out again.

you guys figured out it has DR 5/magic. It's taken 31 points of damge

did you want to withdraw?

As the halfling drops, the golem swings at Halydr

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

But the clumsy construct misses.

Party is up again!

Seeing they were falling and were unsuccessful in bringing down the golem, Duraz says "I don't think this is working. Maybe pull back?"

"Nothing I do seems to affect this pile of stone!"

Full withdraw

Did my previous attack hit it (16 to hit, 7 damage)?

"Be hard to pull back with Singol down...get him out of harm's way, I'll try to hold it off..."

Haldyr swings again at the construct...

Magic Sword: 1d20 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 4 + 1 + 2 = 19
Cold Iron Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 1 = 9

Duraz reaches Singol and carries him out.

Provoking AoO

@Haldyr yeah sorry. It's taken 40 points of damage so far. It's "bloodied"

Duraz reaches Singol and carries him out.

Provoking AoO

The construct swings at Duraz. But it's swing was slow and the blow goes wide.

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Do we succeed in disengaging?

Since it's 'bloodied', might be best if Haldyr sees what he can do with the sword, at least till he gets hit a time or two...y'all can see if you can revive Singol in the meantime...

I'm out of healing spells... And it has 2 attacks per round. Well, I'll rejoin the fray if you think we can make it...

Singol is up

botting, I see what he meant now

He tries to stabilize.

*GM Fiat - house rule dead at negative Con like in Pathfinder*

1d10 ⇒ 6

@Duraz no one used the potion from here to my knowledge, cause Singol is very close to death

@Halydr yeah it's having a hard time hitting you and I think you're at full health

The slow lumbering construct swings at the elf.

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

But misses again.

Haldyr has yet another go at the construct, wondering what's holding the creature up...

Magic Sword: 1d20 + 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 4 + 1 + 2 = 17
Magic Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 1 = 10

Haldyr has yet another go at the construct, wondering what's holding the creature up...

[Dice=Magic Sword]1d20+4+1+2
[Dice=Magic Damage]1d6+3+1

The magical blade slashes deep at the chalk creature. It hangs by a thread!

The rest of the party is up!

Forgot to look for loot. I was sure we had no pots! Thanks!

Duraz uncorks the healing potion and drains it down Singol's throat.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Duraz uncorks the healing potion and drains it down Singol's throat.

[dice=CLW]1d8+1

Duraz can hold off on the potion. I went back through the past few dozen posts. I must have got confused and counted some damage twice. Singol is actually barely up. Still ineffective in this battle as well. Maybe he passed out from massive damage, a concussion maybe. That sounds good.

I'm going to call it. The golem has 2 hit points left. Heading back to town to rest?

Call what? Did we kill it?

Call what? Did we kill it?

the fight with the golem sorry. It had 2 hit points.

So, I'm finding the Dancer class to be incredibly underpowered and not contributing much to the party. . . I don't know for sure how the rest of the adventure goes, but I'm afraid that I need to either bow out or rebuild because I'm getting the feeling that Basiran Dancer is just too hyper focused on social encounters to have much value.

Rebuild is fine. I'm flexible!

Thanks- I'll look at options. Will stay Marianna and look to rebuild either as a martial build that can do more damage or a caster with better spell list.

After defeating the golem, Duraz searches the room for anything he might find interesting.

Spot: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15

let's move the rebuild to the discussion thread :)

Duraz looks around but doesn't see anything apart from the remains of the golem.

It's eerily quiet as well.

Haldyr breathes a sigh of relief. ”I’m ready to go back to my bow...shall we head back to town for a breather?”

Not to mention, pick up the new guy! :)

Duraz agrees with Haldyr. He is tired and doesn't wish to rest in this crypt.

Mirianna nods, "I need rest to be certain."

Singol pulls himself together. "What did that thing have against halflings? I'll be glad when my body stops hurting."

He picks up his gear and kicks at the remains of the golem.

"Why does Mirianna seem different?"

"I sense that I went into that place a different person, and I have returned stronger and more aware- a brush with death will have that effect occasionally, no?"

As they come to town, Duraz is silent and in deep thought. Everything he experienced since he arrived was odd and apparently disconnected. He asks [i]Stormlord, what is the meaning of this all?[/] in thought.

Returning to the Fireside Inn, you find a warm spicy fish stew and fresh bread and cheese being served in the common room. Thurgald the innkeeper shouts at the serving maids. Pipe smoke hovers in the back corners.
Talk spreads about the upcoming tournament and of a merchant ship docked in the harbor. A man in fine clothes says in a loud voice as you pass "The merchants of the Golden Alliance have a strong presence in southern Eldor from Inolen to Dralven. In fact, they are looking for hired hands in Dralven."

The young woman Talla is anxious to have her champion defend her tomorrow, lest they forget. And news that an adventuring party has traveled to a ruin outside of town.

The group sees a man with very short reddish blonde hair enter. A merchant off to the side looks at him as he enters. The merchant buries his head in a mug of dark ale.
