The Threefold Deaths of the Venerable Theseus

Game Master Mervikoth

Thurl opens the door and moves into the entrance and says, "Who are you who corrupts this place of meditation?"

With a look of shock that the door was opened so easily by Thurl, Brag cautiously follows Thurl in, bow at the ready.

He continues his stream of holy invective to keep the inhabitants from hearing or noticing Arbaro and Lem. ". . . you will pay for the evil you have brought to these people and the lives you have destroyed . . ."

Once inside ...

Round One

Lem smashes the wooden door, the intricate carvings of Irori splintering into shrapnel from Lem's Quaker. The outside of the door and the 15' in front of it are sheathed in a thin coating of ice that is quickly melting.

Inside there is a balcony running around the outer edge of a central room. Ahead the balcony leads to a door in the western wall. A staircase to Lem and Arbaro's immediate right leads down to a landing that runs along the north side of the room before descending down a second staircase on the western wall.

More importantly, standing on either side of the upper ledge and the landing are two archer ghouls, bows drawn, eyeing the iced door (now smashed) with caution.

Down below, on the ground level in the central room, is a meditative zen garden full of sand, rocks, and very small shrubs. The sand has been pulled into pleasing and calming shapes, but is a tinged with a slight pink shade. The small rocks and shrubs are carefully arranged to look natural, but are in fact manicured to perfection.

Worst of all, in the center of the zen garden is a black-clad warrior mounted on a fiendish dire panda bear. His eyes burn with hollow red anger that matches the panda's soulless gaze. The warrior wields a black glaive wreathed in dark shadows that flicker in the light. His helmet drips red blood from the mouthguard, and you hear a rattling breathing, like a draft in a lifeless cave.

As your eyes adjust to the darkness, you see the armored warrior more clearly.

Round One
Brag is up.

Is it fair to say that Thurl is in front of Bragoleb? That was my intention, but I'm not sure if I was explicit enough. Also...I was intending to eat the fruit before leaving the cleansing chamber, but I think i forgot to mention it...can we retcon that? Because we all definitly expected a fight here.

Round # | HP 54/54 | AC 18 | Lay on Hands 6/6 | Smite Evil 3/3 | Arrows 25/40 | Spells: 1st - 2/2; 2nd - 1/1

We all at the fruit after healing up and as we started to climb! Also, Thurl opened the unlocked door, so he must be in front of Brag.

Brag ready for the ghouls this time releases three arrows at the three nearest ghouls inside the door.

Adamantine Longbow Point-Blank (+1), Rapid-Shot (-2) Deadly Aim (-2, +4 Damage) Attack

Damage | Arrow, Regular - 3: 1d8 + 6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 4 = 14

Three ghouls burst in a spray of shiny blood and flecks of flesh.

The two archer ghouls on the landing in front of Lem and Arbaro knock their arrows. One says, "First Hunger, your meals have come to you today!"

The black clad soldier creaks out a deep and hollow, "Huuuuunnnnngryyyyyyyyy... Soooo huuuuuuunnnnnnngryyyyyy..." He and his panda wander the zen garden aimlessly, unresponsive to the intrusion by Lem and Arbaro upstairs.

The other archer responds with the tone of a religious mantra, "Feed him."

"Feed him," the first responds, and sends a couple of arrows into Lem. The second archer does the same, but misses both shots.

Meanwhile, down below, the three remaining party ghouls shriek and gasp as their companions are slaughtered into necromantic dust. "Now I know why people hate surprise parties so much."

"You two, run and tell the First Hunger! I'll hold them off!" the one closest to Thurl says, the mixture of ghoul parts and party confetti hard to differentiate.

"Feed him," they say.

Round 2
Bragoleb again. We will clump Lem/Thurl/Brag together at this time.
2 Archers
6-3 Party Ghouls

Round One

Arbaro unleashes two arrows into the closest Ghoul archer.

+1 Longbow, composite(+2) Deadly Aim, Rapid Shot Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
+1 Longbow, composite(+2) Deadly Aim, Rapid Shot Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

1 hit, 12 damage.

Round One Continued

The two ghouls that ran from Thurl and Bragoleb wave and shout at the panda-riding soldier.

The warrior on the panda pulls up on the chain reigns, the sight of the ghouls apparently taking him out of his reverie. However, he lifts his head toward the landing, as if searching for something above him. Tilting his head back, you hear a deep intake of breath from the soldier's bleeding helmet.

"Foooooood..." the hollow voice says. "Huuuuuuunnnnnnngryyyyyy..."

He uncorks a vial of unholy water and sprinkles a few pinches of silver dust into the bottle before letting it spill in a circle around him and his fiendish dire panda. He casts desecrate. The gaze from his fiendish helmet is transfixed above him, in the direction of Lem, the halfling's wounds dripping blood through the floorboards.

Round 2
Lem, Thurl, and then for convenience's sake Bragoleb are up.

Arbaro Perfect Strike for the miss

Perfect strike: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26

That should be 13 more damage on the archer I think.

Round 1
HP 14/73

Lem enters a rage, the room, and attacks the nearest archer ghoul.

attack: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24
damage: 2d6 + 11 + 1d6 ⇒ (1, 1) + 11 + (3) = 16

Thurl focuses his Ki inward, enhancing his reflexes and moves past the Ghoul (Provoking attack of opportunity) toward the other door and sees the large panda in the next room. He stops and says in a loud voice, ”We have to move past them quickly, there are more ahead Bragoleb. Take these ones down!” Inspire courage activated-Allies within earshot of Thurl: +2 competence bonus to attack/damage, +2 Morale bonus on saves vs Charm or Fear effects

GM discretion on whether or not Arbaro and Lem get that bonus.

The goal is for the ghoul to make an AoO on Thurl so Bragoleb is safe move up a square and take out all 3 in one round or move in past the ghoul and shoot the BBEG if he wants. Some smite action would be nice I think.

Round 2 | HP 54/54 | AC 18 | Lay on Hands 6/6 | Smite Evil 3/3 | Arrows 22/40 | Spells: 1st - 2/2; 2nd - 1/1

Brag moves up following Thurl and rapidly unleashes three more arrows one at each of the three ghouls.

Adamantine Longbow Rapid-Shot (-2), Point-Blank (+1), Deadly Aim (-2, +4 Damage), Thurl-enhanced (+2, +2 Damage) Attack
Attack | Longbow - 1: 1d20 + 16 + 1 + 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 16 + 1 + 2 - 2 - 2 = 27

Damage | Arrow - 3: 1d8 + 6 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 4 + 2 = 19

1 = door ghoul; 2 = ghoul at second door; 3 = ghoul beyond second door

AoO+Desecrate: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 2 = 8

With an unholy swipe, the ghoul misses Thurl. Brag's arrows slice through the three remaining party ghouls, splitting their skulls like a log. The first room is now devoid of unlife.

Lem's target takes a 5' step back and unleashes another volley into the halfling. "If only there were human or elf blood here," he says. "That would really cool the First Hunger's... hunger."

Frost arrows 0/4; human-bane arrows 3/3
Bow+Frost arrow+Desecrate: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 10 + 1 + 2 = 31

Lem takes 31 damage.

The northern archer sees Thurl and his oratory wisdom and takes aim at the dwarf. "There's more of them down below!" he shouts.

Frost arrows 0/4; human-bane arrows 3/3
Bow+Frost arrow+Desecrate: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 10 + 1 + 2 = 29
Bow+Frost arrow+Desecrate: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 10 + 1 + 2 = 21

His arrows bounce of the force fields of mage armor and shield. "Blasted sun! What is this thing, a bard or a wizard?" he says in frustration.

Arbaro is up. then,
Ghoul rider + Panda
Lem, Thurl, Bragoleb
2 Archers

lem is either dead-dead, or -3 depending on how the rage temp hp works.

This should help. I believe you're at -3 HP.

Brag sees Lem's fallen body pierced with arrows, and cries out, "Nooooooooo!"

You should be hearing Eomer when he sees his sister, Eowyn, and thinks she is dead in RotK. That's pretty much how Brag feels about losing Lem.

Seeing his friend go down, Arbaro unleashes on the one Lem struck.
"NO! Another one of us has gone down! This is too much stress on my heart of stone!"

+1 Longbow, composite(+2) Deadly Aim, Rapid Shot Attack, PBS: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12
+1 Longbow, composite(+2) Deadly Aim, Rapid Shot Attack, PBS: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25

Damage: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

Oh, I forgot to ask, is there anything interesting happening to our shipwreck artifacts? Thurl has the astrolabe.

Arb's second arrow hits the ghoul and shaves off some of his temporary HP. You can hear Thurl. The door is open, you both know relatively where the other should be, and Thurl is being loud, so you get the bonus. I think that's +2 damage then?

Thurl: No. Not yet.

Round 2

The devil-armored ghoul kicks his heels into the panda's sides, and the fiendish beast lurches forward 5'. The ghoul raises his glaive etched in eldritch symbols toward the sky and opens his helmet, a hollow, red-tinged blackness where his mouth should be. He channels negative energy.

Will DC 21 vs. Channel Negative Energy
A: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27
B: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

T: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

Damage: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 5, 5) = 20
Arb and Lem take 10 damage, Brag and Thurl take 20. Unless ya'll have some anti-channel energy bonuses, which is entirely possible.

Lem, Thurl, and Bragoleb are up.

Just as the black clad warrior sends out the blast of energy, Thurl focuses his Ki and gestures toward Bragoleb Bragoleb can attempt to reroll his will save)

The pulse of energy hits Thurl and he staggers from the shock of the wave.

Thurl rights his short frame and glares at the misshapen form of Slymr and says, ”Your foul hungers will not leave this place, you will be freed from this in death!” Inspire courage ongoing, free action

Thurl focuses his Ki again, quickening his reflexes (Swift) and closes with the foul creature, punching toward the warrior with his enhanced fists.

Unarmed Strike +magic fang: 1d20 + 9 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 3 = 14

Brag notices the armor and devices of the panda rider and calls on Iomadae to smite this evil antipaladin. "Bring it, holy one! Our friends are in need."

Adamantine Longbow Rapid-Shot (-2), Deadly Aim (-2, +4), Point-Blank (+1), Smite-Evil (+3), Thurl-enhanced (+2), Flaming Burst (+1), +1 Arrow Attack

Thurl, whose AC is 34? Yours I hope and not panda-boy.

Me, I forgot to factor in my Ki dodge.

Gravity bow Damage should have been: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (5, 2) + 8 = 15
Gravity bow Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (6, 5) + 8 = 19

Just saw that I'm not up, but I'm going to be busy this afternoon, so here it goes for later.

Arbaro rushes to Lem's side and cast Stabilize on him.
Upon casting this spell, you target a living creature that has –1 or fewer hit points. That creature is automatically stabilized and does not lose any further hit points. If the creature later takes damage, it continues dying normally.

"I've got him, but he can't get up yet! By Erastil, I wish I had a potion to get him some health back!"

Arbaro's damage adjusted.

Thurl whiffs.

Lem's eyes flutter as he bleeds, but does not die.

Bragoleb's smites evil. All three arrows hit, sticking through the ghoul's armor. He yells in pain. 80 damage! Nicely done.

The archers hear the First Hunger's cries of pain. "Who shot him?' one asks.

"A paladin! By starvation, we are doomed..."

Unable to gain line of sight to Bragoleb (or Thurl either), the archers unload a volley at Arbaro. They've got human-bane arrows they would LOVE to use, but Bragoleb is hiding in the dining room... *frustrated GM noises*

Round 3

The ghoul rider roars in unison with his dire panda mount and lashes out at Thurl. "Huuuuuumaaaaannnnnn fleeessshshhhshshshsh..." he says, eyes fixed on Bragoleb.

Glaive+Power Attack: 1d20 + 15 - 3 ⇒ (19) + 15 - 3 = 31

Brag centers all is holy focus on the antipaladin and unleashes his next salvo. "No human flesh today, panda-boy. If we take this one out, the others may abandon their attack."

Adamantine Longbow Rapid-Shot (-2), Point-Blank (+1), Deadly Aim (-2, +4), Smite-Evil (+3, +7), Flaming Burst (+1), Thurl-enhanced (+2), +1 Arrow Attack

Total damage to the panda-riding, soon to die, faithless-evil, ghoul-spawning, foul-smelling, pin-cushion is 151.

wow - lem continues to take a short rest, labored breathing continues.

Pretty sure that flaming burst only gets applied once on a crit

After the successful? strike, Thurl gestures up at the north archer and says, "Bragoleb, take him down.

HP: 25/61

31 less damage, you don't multiply the flaming strike 2d10, it's just a flat bonus on the end of the rest of the crit's damage.

The ghoul antipaladin is struck through the stomach, ripping through his armor. Clattering the to the ground, the armor and body of the ghoul lands in a heap around the panda, a wisp of black and red smoke snaking away as the First Hunger dies.

Thurl hits the panda.

The archers wail at the death of their leader, "First Hunger! No!"

"We shall avenge you!"

They both move, one with a 5' step, the other with 20', and aim at the First Hunger's killer: Bragoleb.

Arbaro.

B/L/T sandwich LOLOLOL
Archers

Well, looks like it’s just Me and Arbaro...

No... Not the dreaded TPK.

My next move was to channel some positive energy to heal Lem (and anyone else within 30 feet). I'm still not sure how they could see Brag considering the angles. I assumed that Brag was far enough back to only see the antipaladin, panda, and Thurl.

Nevermind! I see that the dreaded archers moved to gain sight of the door way. I should have checked the map first. So I'm dead, dead. 1 HP damage more than my total HP plus Constitution. It's been fun... Sorry to lose Brag, his shortened name no longer fits. But he did take out the antipaladin.

Brag breaths his last, "I go to find Iomadae, in whose mighty company I shall not now feel ashamed."

Arbaro takes aim at the archer still on his level.

+1 Longbow, composite(+2) Deadly Aim, Rapid Shot Attack, PBS: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25
+1 Longbow, composite(+2) Deadly Aim, Rapid Shot Attack, PBS: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 3) + 8 = 14
Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (5, 1) + 8 = 14

One of Arbaro's arrows hits, and the upper archer is almost dead.

Round 4

The panda bites and swips at Thurl, the scent of sandalwood and bamboo on the monk feeding his hunger for warm blood.

Bite: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30
Claw: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28
Claw: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18

Thurl, Lem, and... just them are up.

Lem continues to breath, just faintly

Round ??? | HP 19/39 | Advice 8/17 | Awaken Divinity 0/6 | Ki Pool 1/10
AC: 30 T: 28 FF: 18 CMD: 22 Mage Armor, Shield, Barkskin, Greater magic Fang active

Thurl yells out, "I won't last much longer Arbaro, get Lem out of here! Bragoleb is Down!" and punches at the bear again.

Attack (Unarmed Strike): 1d20 + 9 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 3 + 2 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 2 = 6

Then Thurl backs out of the room a few steps (5 ft) to get some distance from the panda, but keeping the north archer in his line of sight.

Brag continues to . . . Be dead.

Arbaro perfectly strikes the archer, killing it. Only one archer and the bear remain. Thurl whiffs his attacks.

Arrows: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 10 + 2 = 13
Arrows: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 2 = 19

damage: 1d6 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 2 = 12

The archer sinks an arrow into Arbaro, but you see on his face that his options are running out. All his magic arrows are spent/worthlses, and sneak attack only works on flat-footed or flanked creatures, so he'll be doing much less damage now.

Arbaro is up.

Arbaro screams as another arrow pierces his stony flesh.
"Your boss is dead and you are out of time! By Deadeye, I will bring you down!"

Don't forget Thurl's extra atk and dmg
