The green is grass, the brown is trail...the grey is a stone foundation.
1. Palthut, being right behind the wall, has no line of sight to me till after my actions.
2. With the distance modifiers and stealth, I calculate the perception DC to hear me at 37, which palthut cannot reach.
If any of my calculations or claims are in error though, please let me know and I can create a perception spoiler with the DC, or if you'd rather, you can.
Beansidhe moves into the foliage around her and begins to move silently through it.
Right now the way you guys have been moving neither of you has ever had line of sight on the other. Quietly circling, but not seeing anything yet.
Double move for 15' Still no line of sight.
and promptly falls on his bottom before getting up again.
I removed her icon from the map. It's placement in the white space has no bearing in the game...it is just a placeholder.
Edit to add:
Another two move actions, two diagonals equaling 15' total. Puts me left edge of the map, two rows up.
Oh! I forgot something that was supposed to happen. Not too late yet though...
Line of sight now exists (finally :P). Beansidhe, make a DC 10 perception check to notice Palthut moving out in the open...(this essentially checks to see if you are looking in the correct direction...the distance is what makes what should be an easy check so relatively high).
Palthut, because she is hiding your perception will likely be harder, and you will not get it until/if she creates visible stimulus. I will be back after her post to let you know.
Palthut probably sees her.
Based on her position, distance, and last stealth roll, you actually wouldn't with that roll. (The DC is in the low 30s right now).
Technically you don't have a move action left to make a deliberate perception check though, so you would not get that check until there is an observable stimulus which will allow you to perception for free. At that point her stealth might be lower. We will bank that excellent die roll and result for now and see if it helps you out after she takes her turn.
Beansidhe sees her opportunity. She pulls out her bow and an arrow. A quick flash runs to her bow as she nocks an arrow and pulls back. She lets the arrow fly at her target, then ducks back behind the trees.
As palthut gets struck by the arrow he dashes into the temple.
As Palthut moves into the temple, an Arcane Sigil on the ground begins to glow. Having faith in what he read on the side of the tower, he steps onto the sigil. A flash of light an a loud crack of air clapping together in a vacuum. There is a lightness, and a sickening jerk as if something punched him in the gut. The lights swirl around him, he comes too laying on his back looking up at the open sky.
Beansidhe moves quickly across the ground to the side of the palisade she'd started at.
Arcane Pool: 4/5
Beansidhe then moves forward to the wall if the Temple, pressing herself against it.
Beansidhe moves around the side of the temple and looks inside. Seeing it empty, she looks around, and pulls out a small lump of wax and concentrates. Palliar.
A sound, pops up out of nowhere, feet hitting packed dirt and heavy breathing, it moves across the road towards the Oread's starting palisade.
Since you are making an effort for this to be more than just "Hear the sound of a creature walking- DC 10" I am going to assign a base DC of 5 to it. Then with the distance from him to the palisade, the closest point in the line you are making, the adjusted DC will be 12 (50' distant and 30' high, I am eyeballing the hypotenuse of that triangle to be around 70-is feet). I will roll it for him reactively and his will save and then post appropriately in the open.
Palthut, as you make your preparations upon the tower, you can hear your opponent moving below you. It is hard to make a specific pinpoint on the sound, but from the general directionality it sounds like she is heading towards the palisade in the North that you began the combat at.
Palthet, Standing at the wall either crenellations beside you, you are able to survey nearly all of the battle field. From your vantage point you can see your adversary crouching against the wall of the temple, working to stay hidden from anyone on ground level.
Beansidhe looks around to see if he fallen for her bait. Not seeing the Oread, she readies herself, pulling out an arrow.
Palthut smiles as he sees Beansidhe not moving, in the range of his spell.
He mutters an incantation in an unknown language.
As Palthut opens an ornate bag, sands pours out, and dissipates in the wind. The ground under Beansidhe erupts into a shifting, scalding hot sand field about 45 feet wide at its center.
Beanside, with that perception check you do notice him at the top of the tower now.
