GM Hawthwile's Scions of the Sky Key Series (Inactive)

Game Master Hawthwile

Perception check: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24

"Be careful through this part!" Tere trots along behind the dwarf, assisting any of the other party members through the trickier bits.

perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

Distracted by the enormous dino behind them, Alaric doesn't quite spend enough time looking forward. Caught up in the chase, he ROARS at the giant dinosaur behind them, with Shredder joining in the cacophony!

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15 His eyes still filled with water, Jethro splutters, "Which way, which way!?!"

Thran's rock knocks one of the climbers down her vine as Telka and Banon guide the Pathfinders off the path and into the jungle. The narrow trail runs along the side of the ravine before turning back towards the valley floor - and the thundering footsteps of their dinosaur pursuer! A dense thicket of shrubbery and trees ahead offers a chance of escape, if only for a moment.

You could try to remember which of the plants are the most supple and bendable with a Knowledge (nature) check, or squeeze through the trees with an Escape Artist check.

What do you do?

Knowledge Nature: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

"Uh, anyone remember which of these is poisonous?"

Knowledge Nature: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27
"At last, a task more suited to a scholar! Hmm, as I recall, these plants belong to the genus Flexibllia, which, as you probably recall, was first noted by the sages of ancient Jistka - though there is some debate about whether they were simply "borrowing" from the work of earlier Tian scholars - it all depends on whether one translates the Tian rune Xibl as "often" or one translates it as "frequent" - though it's worth noting that there are some who prefer to translate it as "mustard" - but that's a question for another day. In any case, the real significance of the genus was not recognized until the Azlanti janitor prodigy Octavian one day ---" Jethro continues on like this until his comrades pull him out of the path of the crashing dinosaur.

Escape artist: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Thran uses his bulky body to bend one of the trees out of the way allowing for more space to fit said bulky body through.

Escape Artist check: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26

Tere chooses one of the trees that the wizard is indicating and slides through the narrow gap between it and the next tree over, holding it in place behind him so that the raptors can get through.

Telka tries to wriggle through the shrubbery but without much hope.

Escape artist: 1d20 - 4 ⇒ (9) - 4 = 5

kn:nature: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20

Alaric snaps at Telka's hand as he is about to reach out to a very nasty thornbush, and guides him to a safer path.

With the help of Jethro's lecture and Tere's deftness, even Telka is able to make it through the dense copse. On the other side, the ravine wall - and perhaps safety - loom ahead. Telka's keen eyes spot a potential route of rocky handholds up the sheer cliff face - as well as a strange glowing fruit.

The Pathfinders are distracted, however, by a sudden burst of movement from the vegetation to the left. Thran recognizes the woman he struck with a rock on the vines leading a pack of similarly-garbed adventurers out of the trees and towards the same set of handholds!

A pair of loud cracks and the sound of falling trees announce a third party as the dinosaur pushes her way through the trees. She roars at the sight of so many people trapped between her and the ravine wall as she begins her advance!

You could try to beat up the rival agents with an Attack roll, or perhaps you can "persuade" the angry dinosaur that they are better prey with a Handle Animal check.

What do you do?

Knowledge Nature: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Banon does his best to fend off the rival gang!

Telka' pulls out his wand of bless again to help his comrades.

Hope this thing holds up, how many charges does it have left?

Knowledge (Nature) DC 18: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

Attack, Bless: 1d20 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (20) - 1 + 1 = 20
CRIT CONFIRM? Attack, Bless: 1d20 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (16) - 1 + 1 = 16

Jethro blindly slashes out with his dagger and is shocked to find that he's managed to hit something besides his own hand. "My word. Usually I just slice off pieces of my own fingers." Jethro holds up his stubby digits as evidence.

Bardic knowledge (Nature): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

"Hey look, glowing fruit...that can't be natural..can it?"

Attack roll: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 8 + 1 = 27
Thran expertly twirls his spear around beating rivals left and right with both ends.

Unfamiliar with animal handling, Tere draws his curve blade and attacks!

Curve blade attack, including bless: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 1 = 12

...and tries very hard to hit another party member.

Thran masterfully pokes and jabs at the other band of adventurers, catching one off-guard as she ducks Tere's blade and tripping another who clutches his thigh that bleeds from Jethro's dagger. The Pathfinders reach the base of the cliff, but can't afford to stop as the dinosaur rushes up behind them. Safety awaits at the top - if they can make it there!

You can try to Climb away fast enough to escape the angry dinosaur, or you could try breaking off a piece of the cliff as you climb to fall on her and stun her with a Strength or Dexterity check.

What do you do?

Climb: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Motivated by the approaching sharp pointy death, Banon scrambles up the cliff face as quickly as he can!

Looking over his shoulder Thran quickly decides that going after Banon is in his best interest

Climb: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28

Climb check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17

Seeing the wisdom of their approach, Tere follows the other two up the cliff.

Telka tries to dislodge some rubble as he scrambles up the slope.

Dex check: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16

Thran once again takes the lead, scrambling up the rocky cliff face and setting down ropes for the other Pathfinders. Seeing her prey out of her reach, the tyrannosaurus roars in frustration before turning her attention to the rival adventurers scattered across the ravine floor. As she chases them back into the jungle, her ground-shaking footsteps eventually fall silent.

That was a success on every single obstacle. Well done, Pathfinders!

The return trip to Krihirik village takes several hours (4, to be precise), but the jungle remains quiet and the journey (relatively) uneventful. (Jethro managed to almost drown again during a stream crossing, and Tere found a new type of wasp that apparently found the smell of his armor irresistible.) Easily overcoming these minor obstacles, the Pathfinders find themselves back at the grippli's village.

At the outskirts of the Krihirik village, grippli possessions lie scattered about as if they were dropped or tossed carelessly from the dwellings above. Where before gripplis hurried about the village, now none are to be found. Shouting from the direction of the elders’ hut carries through the empty jungle - “Find the others!” - followed by the loud crash of something falling to the jungle floor.

The Pathfinders easily spot a panther near one of the tree stumps, as well as two hooded figures - too tall to be grippli - on the hanging walkways carrying crossbows at the ready.

Another figure steps out of the elder's hut. "Hah!" he barks. "Safira, guard!" He raises a piece of meat and begins chanting.

The cat growls, but remains stationary.

What do you do?

Climb: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (6) + 0 = 6
Jethro harumphs indignantly. "Join the Pathfinder Society, they said... See the world, they said..."

Telka steps up to Banon and casts fly on him.

Jethro harumphs indignantly. "Join the Pathfinder Society, they said... See the world, they said..."

Jethro, I’m assuming this is part of the chase sequence and not your turn in combat. Please let me know if I am incorrect.

Alaric looks to Shredder, and the two tear off after the panther!

Alaric slashes with his talon.
talon, GMF, PA: 1d20 + 8 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 8 + 1 - 1 = 21 talon, GMF, PA: 1d8 + 5 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 1 + 2 = 15

Shredder does the same!
talon, GMF, PA: 1d20 + 8 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 8 + 1 - 1 = 21 talon, GMF, PA: 1d6 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 1 + 1 + 2 = 9

Seeing 2 people with crossbows aimed at his party standing closely together Thran summons for a boom of sound to rattle them after he moves close enough for his magic to reach them

Casting sound burst on red+green, avoiding party members.
Sonic damage: 1d8 ⇒ 6 and a DC 15 fort save or be stunned for 1 round

As the dinosaur-shaped druid approaches, the panther snaps out with her sharp teeth...

Bite vs AC 14: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Bite damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Trip vs CMD 20: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21

...and Alaric finds himself on the ground, his talon only slicing the air above the cat. Shredder cuts in and attacks the panther, opening a large gash in her side. From the walkway, the man in red laughs cruelly - though his mirth is cut short by a blast of sound from Thran...

Red Fortitude, Boon vs DC 15: 1d20 + 8 - 1 ⇒ (14) + 8 - 1 = 21
Red Concentration vs DC 19: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
Red Acrobatics, Boon vs DC 12: 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 4 - 1 = 16

Green Fortitude, Boon vs DC 15: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (10) + 5 - 1 = 14
Green Acrobatics, Boon vs DC 12: 1d20 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 - 1 = 9

...and while he is not stunned and retains his spellwork and footing on the swinging walkway, his companion is not so lucky. In stunned silence, the man falls to the ground below...

Falling damage: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 6) = 9

...and lands with a sickening crunch.

For my ease of tracking movement, please mark your trajectories on the map. I highly recommend the Select Line -> Scribble tool for such purposes.

- The ladder on the ground can be set back up with a move action

What do you do?

Rising off the ground, Banon grimaces. "Think happy thoughts, happy thoughts..." he mutters, willing the magic to send him up to the remaining archer. Soaring up, overshooting the walkway, he takes a swing the the man from above!

Falchion, Rage, Height Advantage: 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 7 + 2 + 1 = 29
Crit Confirmation: 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 7 + 2 + 1 = 25

Jethro, I’m assuming this is part of the chase sequence and not your turn in combat. Please let me know if I am incorrect.

Yes, correct. I think we posted at almost the same time so I didn't notice that the chase was over.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

Recognizing that the chanting figure is casting dominate animal, Jethro quickly acts to disrupt his spell, drawing his wand and shooting a bolt of force.

Magic Missile: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 I believe this should require a DC 16 concentration check or lose the spell.

Then Jethro moves forward.

If yellow is still up after Banon's attack:

Tere draws his bow and steps a little closer to the enemy that Banon attacked, loosing an arrow at the flatfooted foe!

Arrow on the string: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
Damage, in the unlikely event that hit, including sneak attack: 1d8 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (1) + 2 + (1, 6) = 10

Banon's blade sinks deep into his opponent's shoulder...

Yellow Acrobatics, Boon vs DC 12: 1d20 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 - 1 = 20

...but the woman effortlessly moves with the rippling bridge and keeps her footing. Jethro's missile slams into the man casting...

Red Concentration vs DC 16: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
Red Acrobatics, Boon vs DC 12: 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 4 - 1 = 9

...and though the missile does not distract his spellwork, the man accidentally steps back off the bridge...

Falling damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4
Red Concentration vs DC 17: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26

...but apparently the water cushioned his fall because somehow he's still casting his spell!

Tere's arrow only strikes the underside of the bridge as Banon's opponent withdraws back into the elder's hut. The man in red finishes chanting and throws the meat at Shredder...

Shredder Will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

...and the dinosaur suddenly stiffens. Laughing, the man stands in the shallow pond, flips a long knife into his hand, and tosses it at Thran...

Red Dagger, Deadly Aim, Boon, Distance vs AC 12: 1d20 + 11 - 2 - 1 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 11 - 2 - 1 - 2 = 17
Slashing, Piercing damage, DA, Boon: 1d4 + 4 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 4 - 1 = 9

...and the blade sinks deep into the bard's thigh. The panther bites and tears at the prone Alaric...

Blue Bite vs AC 10: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23
Bite damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Blue Claw vs AC 10: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13
Slashing, Piercing damage: 1d3 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Blue Claw vs AC 10: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
Slashing, Piercing damage: 1d3 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

...leaving long gashes in the druid's scales.

- The ladder on the ground can be set back up with a move action
- Anyone who takes damage while standing on a walkway must make a DC 12 Acrobatics check or fall to the ground and take 2d6 damage

What do you do?

Telka intones a quick spell and points at the dagger thrower.

HALT he shouts. He then clicks his heels together and jogs over closer to Alaric to try and help him out.

Sorry, I cannot reach you this turn Alaric. Casting Command on Red, DC17 will save or he does nothing on his next turn then activating agile feet to ignore any difficult terrain as I move to flank the panther. I provoke from Red as I move if he has another weapon out.

Tere draws his curve blade and advances on the fallen spellcaster, splashing through the shallow pond to reach him.

Curve blade attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22
Damage, if applicable: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

"Yer in for a world o' hurt!" Banon roars, following the archer in to land in front of him, swinging the falchion down. Unfortunately, it lands in the floor rather than his target.

Falchion, Rage: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 2 = 10

Grunting as the knife enters his leg Thran limbs forward until he's next to the man that dropped down stunned from above and is now prone and unarmed on the floor looming over the man with his falchion raised

"You'd better stay down if you know what's good for you!"

before raising his voice to motivate his party members

"TAKE THEM DOWN MY FRIENDS!"

Move to move, standard to start inspire courage

Alaric sees Shredder moving away, not under his control any more! So, he will just attack from prone, taking advantage of Telka's flank!

talon, PA, GMF, prone, IC, flank: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 - 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 8 - 1 + 1 - 4 + 1 + 2 = 22 talon, PA, IC: 1d8 + 5 + 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 12
talon, PA, GMF, prone, IC, flank: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 - 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 8 - 1 + 1 - 4 + 1 + 2 = 25 talon, PA, IC: 1d8 + 5 + 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 16
bite, PA, GMF, prone, IC, flank: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 - 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 8 - 1 + 1 - 4 + 1 + 2 = 26 bite, P, ICA: 1d6 + 5 + 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 11
s, PA, GMF, prone, IC, flank: 1d20 + 3 - 1 + 1 - 4 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 3 - 1 + 1 - 4 + 1 + 2 = 5 foreclaw, PA, IC: 1d4 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 8

Feline blood flies everywhere as Alaric takes his vengeance on the cat!

Jethro fires another bolt of force from his wand at Yellow.

Magic Missile: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Red Will, Boon vs DC 17: 1d20 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 3 - 1 = 14

The knife-thrower glares at Telka, but doesn't move from his spot in the pond. He slashes at the dwarf as he passes...

Dagger, Boon vs AC 24: 1d20 + 11 - 1 ⇒ (5) + 11 - 1 = 15
Piercing, Slashing damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

...but is surprised at Telka's graceful movements and catches only air before Tere attacks him, the elf's blade cutting a shallow gash across his arm to match the scars left from the claws of some great beast.

Jethro, since you can't see Yellow anymore I'm redirecting your missile to Red. Let me know if you want to pick a different target instead.

Shredder bites and claws at his fallen companion, feeling none of his usual joy of shredding...

Shredder Talon, PA, GMF vs AC 10: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 9 - 1 + 1 = 22
S/P PA, GMF: 1d6 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 2 + 1 = 7

Shredder Talon PA, GMF vs AC 10: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 9 - 1 + 1 = 20
S/P PA, GMF: 1d6 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 2 + 1 = 8

Shredder Bite PA, GMF vs AC 10: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 8 - 1 + 1 = 22
S/P/B PA, GMF: 1d4 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 2 + 1 = 6

...and Alaric's blood sprays the ground, mixing with the cat's as the druid slumps limply on the ground. Up above in the elder's hut, the woman in yellow smiles grimly as Banon strikes the floor. "Pathfinders can't hit someone unless they take 'em by surprise, eh?" Whipping out a pair of handaxes, she strikes back at the half-orc...

Yellow Handaxe, Boon vs AC 16: 1d20 + 6 - 1 ⇒ (2) + 6 - 1 = 7
Slashing, Boon: 1d6 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (2) + 3 - 1 = 4

Yellow Handaxe, Boon vs AC 16: 1d20 + 6 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 - 1 = 11
Slashing, Boon: 1d6 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 - 1 = 7

...with the same level of success. From his position on the ground, the man in green does the same against Thran...

Green Handaxe, Prone, Boon vs AC 12: 1d20 + 6 - 4 - 1 ⇒ (10) + 6 - 4 - 1 = 11
Slashing, Boon: 1d6 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 - 1 = 8

Green Handaxe, Prone, Boon vs AC 12: 1d20 + 6 - 4 - 1 ⇒ (17) + 6 - 4 - 1 = 18
Slashing, Boon: 1d6 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 - 1 = 7

...and one axe catches the bard in the leg, not quite deep enough to catch tendons and bone. Bleeding badly from Alaric's attacks, the panther withdraws and is soon nowhere to be found amidst the dense jungle foliage. "Get back here you worthless mongrel!" the man in red yells through gritted teeth as he stands motionless.

- Anyone who takes damage while standing on a walkway must make a DC 12 Acrobatics check or fall to the ground and take 2d6 damage

What do you do?

"Well..you did stay down. Maybe I should be more specific....stop fighting us!"

Thran swings his falchion down in an overhand chop hoping for some payback

To hit AC Yellow: 1d20 + 8 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 8 + 1 + 4 = 28
Magical slashing damage if hit: 2d4 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (3, 3) + 8 + 1 = 15

"AAARRRHHHHHH!!!!!"

Free to sustain inspire, standard to attack

Telka casts a spell and his hands begin to glow with a bright green light. He jogs forward past Shredder, intentionally leaving himself open to him before reaching down to touch Alaric.

Convert prayer into cure serious wounds, move past shredder, provoking, and touch Alaric healing him for 3d8 + 5 ⇒ (1, 2, 3) + 5 = 11 damage

Alaric is conscious on his action.
Debating what to do... unfortunately that was a sub-par healing.

Falchion, Rage: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 2 = 23
Damage: 2d4 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (2, 2) + 3 + 3 = 10

"SHUT YER FACE!" Banon returns, swinging the falchion harder at the provocation.

Alaric realizes that his little buddy will kill him in his current, dominated, state, so decides to give himself a better chance, and heals himself.
concentration DC17: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23
cure light wounds: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Jethro moves into the water and casts a spell, carefully targeted to catch Red and Green, but not any of his comrades.

Color Spray, DC 17 Will negates

As he moves up, he drops the now empty wand of magic missile and draws the fresh one that he purchased back in town.

Shredder leaps at Telka as the dwarf passes by...

Claw, PA, GMF vs AC 24: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 9 - 1 + 1 = 14
Slashing, Piercing damage, PA, GMF: 1d6 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 2 + 1 = 5

...but the little dinosaur's claw bounces off the heavy plate. With Alaric looking a bit better - and the two warriors looking equally worse for wear - Jethro gets dangerously close and tries to dazzle the two ground-bound opponents...

Green Will, Boon vs DC 17: 1d20 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (4) + 2 - 1 = 5
Red Will, Boon vs DC 17: 1d20 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (20) + 3 - 1 = 22

...and the prone man falls lays stunned while his companion just shakes his head and growls at the wizard.

What do you do?

Tere continues to harry the apparent leader, cutting him again.

Curve blade attack, including inspiration: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 9 + 1 = 22
Curve blade damage, including inspiration: 1d10 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 1 = 14

Blood drips from Tere's sword into the murky water of the pond, matched by blood from another gash in his opponent's arm. Up above, the woman in yellow raises an axe and defiantly swings at Banon...

Handaxe, Boon vs AC 16: 1d20 + 8 - 1 ⇒ (2) + 8 - 1 = 9
Slashing damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

...but she is too weak to lift the weapon and falls to the floor, her own blood spreading like a pool underneath her. At the man in red's whistle, Shredder mechanically moves away from his master, around Thran, and into a flanking position behind Tere. He claws at his favorite source of jerky...

Talon, PA, GMF, Flanking vs AC 20: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 9 - 1 + 1 = 10
Slashing/Piercing damage, PA, GMF: 1d6 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 2 + 1 = 5

...but something keeps him from using his full abilities on the elf. "Stupid worthless beast," the man mutters, not bothering to mask his disgust. He sloshes through the pond, turning back only briefly to throw yet another knife at Jethro...

Dagger, Boon vs AC 14: 1d20 + 11 - 1 ⇒ (4) + 11 - 1 = 14
Slashing/Piercing damage, Boon: 1d4 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 - 1 = 6

...which catches the wizard in the hand, adding yet another source of blood to the murky water.

Telka, Alaric, Thran, and Tere may take an attack of opportunity against Shredder if they choose. Alaric can take another attack of opportunity against Red from movement.
