[PFS][RD] The Guantlet -- SCROLLS Table (Inactive)

Game Master Andrew Harasty

Gilgrim releases his stance to make his way around the remaining creature, feeling worn out from the effort, but dedicated to striking down the evil thing.

Free Action: End Defensive Stance. Fatigued for 2 rounds.

Move Action: Move around the remaining Chaos Beast, staying outside 5' reach.

Standard Action:
Warhammer Attack w/ Power Attack/Haste/Fatigued/Flanking: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (17) + 14 = 31

fire damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1
SR: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19
Reflex DC 18 to avoid being dazed for 1 round.

Benevolence then pauses for a moment to see if his companions can finish it off before pelting it with magic.

Relex: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
The beast blinks five of its eyes and although singed not slowed by the blast.

Only one of Lissanya's arrows hits, and Gilgim smashes it soundly, but it still quivers.

Benevolence will wait till right before it goes to shoot the MM

Bold can still act

Narayan flings himself at the final beast an expression of grim resolve replacing his normal smile.

Sitiss distracts the beast enough that allows Narayan to finish it off.

End of Combat

I suppose we're not done yet. Which door then? Show me the trap and I can deal with it." Lissanya pulls her wand and removes the bruises from the last room.

Hideousss unnatural creaturesss! Let ssself sssee if illusionsss hid other of interessst?

perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16 sigh...

Gilgrim looks down at the creatures that mimicked the Pathfinder masters, spits on the one at his feet before looking around the room again. "So if this wasn't the end, where in Torag's bushy beard are we?"

Perception w/ Stonecunning: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14

"Whichever door they ssugessted is likely a trap."

Disable Device: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (6) + 17 = 23

Lissanya tries to get past the trap mentioned earlier, but flubs a bit working around the glyphs.

Whelp, might get to see what it does!

Sarvin looks around the new area.

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (10) + 12 = 22

The Red door is trapped and unfortunately Lisannya seems a bit distracted that she accidentally triggers the glyph filling the room with rays of negative energy.

Hand of Fate GM using your reroll

Disable Device: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (11) + 17 = 28

However at the last moment a brief sight of inspiration prevents the energy draining trap from working at all.

After dealing the that, you notice that the doors are false and don't go anywhere. Only the green ones on the other side. Once seeing that they are safe you open them.

Room 15

The green metal doors open to reveal an irregular chamber dominated by a massive statue of a leering demon. The figure sits cross-legged upon a small dais along the north wall, its clawed hands holding a wide silver plate covered with burning coals. The statue looms nearly twenty feet tall from its seat to the crown of its head, giving the impression of a giant stooping over to fit in a confined space. Four five-foot-wide columns of glowing energy run from the floor to the ceiling, two to either side of the demonic colossus. From right to left, the columns are bright red and orange, brown, white, and blue. Along the wall, twenty-five feet from the double doors you entered, another pair of closed green metal double doors seem to present a potential exit from the room.

Licking flames and subdued heat coming from the red and orange column, chunks of small, sharp rocks flying around within the brown column, and swirling vapor and the smell of ozone coming from the white column. The blue column appears to be composed of fast flowing water, and gives off an acrid smell.

"Nice work Lissanya"

Sarvin looks at the statue for signs of traps.

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17

Just realized that I almost forget to get some healing done in the last room. Gilgrim would have handed his wand off to someone to use on him.

Gilgrim walks into the room and takes in the view with a sigh. "More of these danged puzzles. It's enough to give a dwarf a giant-sized headache." He continues to mumble under his breath as he takes in the room. He especially look at the demon statue, spitting on the ground in disgust.

Perception w/ Stonecunning: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12

"Nice work Lissanya"

"...thanks." Lissanya nods, trying to shake the feeling of a nearly averted catastrophe. Seeing the column, Lissanya floats into the room, feeling drawn to the white column.

Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28

Lissanya heads to the white pillar and sees that it is made of swirling vapor and smell of ozone. This is electrified air. Looking at it closely she determine that anyone who step in to the column would then recieve a good deal of damage. The other columns are similarly tied to other elements.

Gilgrim and Sarvin go up to investigate the statue and at first not seeing anything. But as the get close the mouth opens and a symbol of pain is revealed.

Fort, Sarvin: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Fort, Gilgrim: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14 +2 vs. Poison, Spells, & Spell-like abilities; +4 for Endurance
Fort, Lissanya: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25 +4 vs [Air]/[Electricity]

Both Sarvin and Gilgrim are effected.

Pain: -4 on attack, skill, and ability checks for one hour

The Symbol is still active and will effect anyone else that enters.

can I use my re roll?

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21

Lissanya quickly closes her eyes to avoid the sigil's effects. "You two okay? I can summon mist again to hide the symbol, but I don't know if the door ahead is safe yet."

Benevolence responds to Lissanya, while not yet entering the room "Can you disable it?"

Gilgrim grimaces at the sudden pain inflicted by the magical glyph. "I'll be fine lass, but don't slow down on my account."

"Maybe." Lissanya calls back. "Damned hard to do it blind. Can you dispel it? Without looking at it?"

Benevolence responds "Good thinking. Last time I encountered a symbol it only had a limited range, I should be able to try from outside of that."

Benevolence lifts his staff and pulls for a dispel magic.
Using arcane bond to pull a spell out of the spellbook.

dispel magic: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25

That will get CL 14 or less.

Hss... Elemental columnsss that do nothing but harm you if you touch them. There isss sssomething more here.

Benvolence dispels the symbol. Its power is done, but Gilgrim still feels its effects. Sarvin summoned his person will to throw off the effect.

Taking a few moments you see that the other green door is bound and sealed with magic. But the magic seems tied to the columns and the statue.

Maybe put sssomething of elementsss on ssstone plate?

From what you can tell, the theme of this room is Pain. Right now it looks like you will need one person to step in to each column in order to unlock the door.

Oh, freakin' duh. XD

"Here goes nothing." Lissanya mutters, stepping into the ozone column.

I assume it does more than 5 damage and will kick in her fast healing, so she'll take 7 off of the electrical damage.

Narayan steps up to the column with the heat shimmer. "Another trial by fire. Thiss can be endured."

Sarvin steps up to the earth column.

Who is going into the Water

Licking flames and subdued heat coming from the red and orange column, chunks of small, sharp rocks flying around within the brown column, and swirling vapor and the smell of ozone coming from the white column. The blue column appears to be composed of fast flowing water, and gives off an acrid smell.

Gilgrim grumbles past the pain from the magical symbol. "Sure. Why not. Nothin' better than a wet dwarf."

He holds his breath and enters into the blue water column.

You coordinate entering the pillars

Lissanya: Electricity: 6d6 ⇒ (2, 5, 4, 2, 6, 5) = 24
Narayan: Fire: 6d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 1, 3, 6, 4) = 26
Sarvin: Bludgeoning: 6d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 4, 4, 6, 5) = 29
Gilgrim: Acid: 6d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 1, 2, 4, 2) = 21

As you each step in and suffer the pain of each elememnet a key begins to form over statue. After a few seconds the key finally forms and Benevolence quickly grabs it. The seal on the other green door drops.

Benevolence channels to heal.

healing channel: 1d6 ⇒ 1

can usue wands to heal after that.

"That," Gilgrim says with a gasp of pain as he steps out of the acid,"Was not the brightest thing I've ever done. Not the dumbest either, by all accounts."

He hands over his wand for Benevolence to use.

"Let's try not to do that again, thank you very much."

"Not nearly as pleasant as it usually is." Lissanya complains.

CLWs: 7d8 + 7 ⇒ (3, 4, 4, 1, 1, 3, 3) + 7 = 26 Good lord what dreck

"Through tesstss of resolve, we ssee what truly matters."

Sorry, wasn't around. Work has been a mess this week. I do have communal resist energy I could have cast. But I think I have to pick the same elemental type for all recipients.

Finishing healing up you open the green door.

Room 16

The green metal doors open to reveal a long platform running north to south along the western edge of a large, rectangular room stretching off to the east. Fifteen feet from the west wall, the floor falls away into a dark pit nearly thirty feet across that ends in an equal-sized ledge along the chamber’s east wall. At the center of that wall is a sturdy golden door with silver hinges— perhaps leading to the entrance chamber and your final escape from the Gauntlet dungeon! A thin stone bridge, wide enough to cross in single-file, leads from the east ledge to the west.

Gilgrim assess the room, looking down into the pit. "Looks easy enough, but that's probably a lie. Maybe I should go first. If the thing goes out from under me, I've still got the airwalking magic to keep me afloat."

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

"Anyone have spells they want to cast before Gilgrim and I move in?" Lissanya inquires, watching the room.

Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20

The Bridge is sturdy over a drop of 30 feet to a stone floor.

While waiting for any further spellcasting, Gilgrim examines the construction of the bridge to see if it was rigged or poorly constructed in any way.

Knowledge (engineering): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

I always forget that he has this.

Benevolence will cast fly on Narayan.

Benevolence then casts Mount and sends it across the bridge once his companions are ready.

Selter goes to work buffing himself and Sithiss. Then they step into the room.

Cast: Air Step on Sithiss, Mirror Image duration split between Sithiss and Selter

images: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

You may want to let my lady go firssst. Her weight will no longer be an isssue, but her presssence my provoke any attacksss that could occur.

The Mount safely crosses the bridge and waits on the other side.

"No offense, Sithiss, but I be better off in front. Yer lizard can back me up like a phalanx, iffn ya want."

The dwarf makes his way across the bridge, being careful not to trip anything along the way.

Perception w/ Stonecunning: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20

Thanks Benevolence

UMD: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (4) + 16 = 20 Putting Shield back up
UMD: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (1) + 16 = 17 Putting Heightened Awareness back up I guess not

Narayan suspects trouble and follows quickly on Gilgrim's heels.

As Gilgrim starts to cross, two copper dragons erupt from the floor. Seeing this you realize the floor below is an illusion and goes 60 feet down.

While the fly up the bridge flips over attempting to toss Gilgrim down.

Ref, Gilgrim: 1d20 + 6 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 6 + 4 = 23
However he is able to retain his balance on air as the bridge attempts to trip him up.
