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

Game Master Hawthwile

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26

Banon would be relying on darkvision, so no light sources on him.

"We're being followed." Banon warns, keeping his eyes on the path forward.

Perception: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (20) + 17 = 37

Yes, I see it too. Anyone know what it is? We should keep an eye on it.

I assume we are not travelling at night and will set up some sort of camp?

Jethro is alarmed to hear that they are being followed and uses another charge of his wand of mage armor to bolster his defenses.

If we wish to travel at night, Jethro will cast light (he has normal human vision). However, he is in favor of camping for the night and, given that they are being followed, having three people on each watch.

perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25

"It is getting dark, but something big is following us. Let's keep the lights out and see if it leaves."

Just in case, Alaric uses a charge of his wand of longstrider on himself. He will also cast [i[]greater magic fang[/i] on himself and Shredder. If Jethro is willing, he'll have the wizard use Alaric's wand of mage armor on Shredder.

Jethro happily uses Alaric's wand on Shredder. And will happily offer his own wand to anyone to whom it would be useful.

@Jethro; Thran would find that useful if you're offering

Same as Banon, dark vision here so I wouldn't be using a light source myself

Hearing the warning about something big nearby given by his party members Thran tries to stay very, very quite.

Tere keeps his wayfinder out, but wrapped loosely in a cloth so that it sheds only a dim light. "I can't see in the dark yet. Let's follow Alaric's suggestion."

@Jethro; Thran would find that useful if you're offering

Same as Banon, dark vision here so I wouldn't be using a light source myself

Hearing the warning about something big nearby given by his party members Thran tries to stay very, very quite.

Jethro taps Thran with the wand of Mage Armor.

The Pathfinders press onwards for the time being, using as little light as possible to navigate through the jungle. Banon keeps an eye out for whatever is following them, and every minute or so catches a glimpse of scaly hide or leathery wings that quickly disappear through the trees.

Continue hiking or make camp? Three votes moves the party.

What do you do?

We should make camp, no point tiring us all out by marching through the night. I can take a watch all night, Desna's blessings will restore me tomorrow.

Telka will keep watch all night and prepare a lesser restoration tomorrow to remove the fatigue.

"Camping would probably be the best plan." agrees Alaric. "Also, it is what we agreed on."

He starts looking for a good spot for a campsite.
survival: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19

"Yeah, I don't fight so good tired." Banon agrees. "I want to be ready if that thing attacks."

"..but won't we not be ready if that thing attacks if we are sleeping?"

'But I'll put my faith in Telka if that means I can sit down and not walk for a while...do we want to set up additional guard rotations to help Telka cover more ground?"

Jethro agrees that having at least one other person on the watch is a good idea, and he offers to take the first watch with Telka.

Then it is decided.

The Pathfinders stop for the evening, find a relatively open patch of jungle to set up bedrolls and tents. As Alaric, Tere, Thran, and Banon (and Shredder) settle in for some sleep, the jungle looms ominously around Telka and Jethro.

Please include in your next post (if applicable) if you would prefer to sleep in medium armor and be fatigued in the morning, or if you would prefer to remove your armor for the night.

After several hours, the hairs on the back of Jethro's neck tingle, as if some spider sixth sense is warning him of danger!

Sleeping characters will need to be woken (or make Perception checks to notice sounds of combat) before contributing in combat.

Surprise Round! Bold may act! (Standard or Move action, but not both)
Jethro
Tere
??
Telka
Banon
Thran
Alaric
Shredder

Environmental Effects:
- Everywhere is difficult terrain due to thick undergrowth (Alaric may ignore)
- Those without Darkvision can only see as far as Jethro's light spell allows (20 ft from Jethro normal light, 20 ft further dim light)
- Sideways tokens are asleep and prone (except Tere, who is "restfully meditating" and seated)

What do you do?

Can I awaken the others simply by shouting (free action), or do I need to individually wake each of them (standard action)? And, other than spidey-sense warning me, do I see/hear anything at all?

Jethro has no armor on but his mage armor would have lapsed by now.

"Alert! Something is coming for us! Awaken! Telka, beware!"

If I have to wake the others by shaking them, I'll do so to the one nearest me - Alaric. If this doesn't use Jethro's standard action then he will ready to cast color spray (DC 17) at anything hostile (unless it appears mindless) that comes into view, being careful to avoid hitting his comrades.

Thran's wearing light armor, so I think I'm fine with sleeping while keeping it on

"...*snore* ...*wheeze* ...*snore* ...*wheeze*..."

Jethro, it would be a free action to yell to try to wake your companions up. They'll have to make a Perception check to hear you, but at a much lower DC than for the check to participate in the surprise round.

As Jethro yells, a dark shadow charges down from the trees and swoops next to the sleeping Thran on dark wings. It screeches in surprise at the sudden burst of colors from Jethro's hands...

Will vs DC 17: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

...but doesn't seem entranced or even mildly interested as it swipes at the bard with a stinger-tipped tail...

Sting, High Ground, Charging vs FF AC 8: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 9 + 1 + 2 = 25
Piercing damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

...and punches a deep hole in the half-orc's shoulder. Thran jerks awake, feeling the pain of something besides just the wound...

Thran Fortitude vs Poison: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

...but he is able to shake off the worst of the poison.

Looks like everyone except Shredder is awake at this point. Remember that you are effectively prone (excluding Jethro and Telka).

Round 1! Bold may act!
Jethro
Tere (Prone)
?? (Charged, 5 ft high)
Telka
Banon (Prone)
Thran (-6, Prone)
Alaric (Prone)
Shredder (Asleep, Prone)

Environmental Effects:
- Everywhere is difficult terrain due to thick undergrowth (Alaric may ignore)
- Those without Darkvision can only see as far as Jethro's light spell allows (20 ft from Jethro normal light, 20 ft further dim light)
- Sideways tokens are prone

What do you do?

Jethro feels shock at seeing this horror swoop down upon Thran! "Beware, my friends! That is a wyvern, thankfully a young one. It's not a dragon, but they have some similarities, such as having multiple natural attacks and being immune to sleep and paralysis. Besides the poison in its stinger, it can also grab its foes in its jaws and rake them with its legs. A formidable foe!"

Jethro draws his wand and hits the creature with a bolt of force.

Magic Missile: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

"Oh hells." Banon groans at the sight, reaching too slowly for his blade.

Knew I forgot something. Banon will have to pick up chain mail jammies after this mission. Currently unarmored.

Tere wears his chain shirt while resting.

The elf rolls to his feet and closes with the wyvern, drawing his sword and cutting at the creature.

Curve blade attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25
Curve blade damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Tere, since it takes a move action to stand and everywhere is difficult terrain, it unfortunately will take both your move and standard action just to get close to the wyvern. You can hold onto those rolls though.

Tere leaps to his feet and moves through the thick underbrush towards the wyvern, who screeches and lashes out at the elf with tooth, wing, and tail...

Bite, Higher ground vs AC 20: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 9 + 1 = 26
Bite damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Grapple, Higher Ground vs CMD 20: 1d20 + 13 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 13 + 1 = 28

Wing, Higher ground vs AC 20: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 4 + 1 = 20
Bludgeoning damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Wing, Higher ground vs AC 20: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 1 = 9
Bludgeoning damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Sting, Higher ground vs AC 20: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 9 + 1 = 21
Bludgeoning damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Tere Fortitude vs Poison: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14

...and with the poisoned elf held firmly in its jaws, it lashes out with its hind talons...

Talon, Higher ground vs AC 20: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 9 + 1 = 20
Slashing damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Talon, Higher ground vs AC 20: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 1 = 24
Slashing damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

...cutting a pair of gashes in Tere's legs and torso as it flaps up into the sky...

Fly to Hover vs DC 15: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

...and hangs high in the sky with its prize.

Shredder Perception, Sleeping vs DC 0: 1d20 + 5 - 10 ⇒ (16) + 5 - 10 = 11

Time since Greater Magic Fang cast: 1d3 + 1d2 ⇒ (3) + (1) = 4

Looks like Shredder is awake and still has the spell active. Woo!

Round 1! Bold may act!
Jethro
Tere (-20, Grappled, Poisoned, 5 ft high) - please include a Fortitude save in your next post
Wyvern (-5, Grappling, 10 ft high)
Telka
Banon (Prone)
Thran (-6, Prone)
Alaric (Prone)
Shredder (Prone)

Environmental Effects:
- Everywhere is difficult terrain due to thick undergrowth (Alaric may ignore)
- Those without Darkvision can only see as far as Jethro's light spell allows (20 ft from Jethro normal light, 20 ft further dim light)
- Sideways tokens are prone

What do you do?

Seeing the beast rising up, Banon rolls to his feet and snatches up his new longbow. "Time for the stress test." he mutters, pawing for the quiver.

Two move actions, next turn will be securing the quiver and firing.

Alaric yells out, "Shredder! Attack!!" as he quickly stands up and wild-shapes into deinonychus form himself.

Note: I had cast GMF on Alaric himself as well.

Shredder stands up and rushes in to help his buddy Tere.

Telka casts a spell and a spinning blue starknife appears next to the flying creature. He clicks his heels together and jogs around the creture to give it another target.

Casting spiritual weapon, activate agile feet and move around. It is grappling so shouldnt provoke

Weapon: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Jethro pulls out a sack and hurls it up into the air at the fearsome creature.

ranged touch attack, 2nd range increment?: 1d20 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 1 - 2 = 14

Tanglefoot Bag, range increment is 10' so I think this is the second increment but it may depend on how you calculate given that it is 10' up. If it hits, the wyvern takes -2 on attack rolls and -4 on Dex and must make a DC 15 Reflex (with penalties both from the bag and from being in a grapple) or be unable to fly and fall.

Oops, I forgot Rake doesn't happen until after the creature start its turn grappling the opponent. So those two attacks never happened. Thanks for catching that!

From his (uncomfortable) vantage point, Tere watches as Shredder prowls underneath him and Banon pulls out a bow. Telka's starknife materializes right next to Tere and has to dodge out of the way to avoid hitting him in the face, while Jethro's pouch sails through the air to land somewhere in the jungle on the other side of the rather angry wyvern.

Grappling penalties unfortunately don't outweigh the penalty for "shooting" into melee" enough to make that a hit. Sorry.

Round 1, 2! Bold may act!
Jethro
Tere (-12, Grappled, Poisoned, 5 ft high) - please include a Fortitude save in your next post
Wyvern (-5, Grappling, 10 ft high)
Telka
Banon
Thran (-6, Prone)
Alaric
Shredder

Environmental Effects:
- Everywhere is difficult terrain due to thick undergrowth (Alaric may ignore)
- Those without Darkvision can only see as far as Jethro's light spell allows (20 ft from Jethro normal light, 20 ft further dim light)
- Sideways tokens are prone

What do you do?

Seeing Telka move around the strange creature holding onto Tere and flying up above him Thran decides that it's most likely save enough to try stand up. Even though getting hit while sleeping by a tail spike stung...

Thran stands up.
'Take down that flying critter and save Tere!"

Thran looks up at Tere
"..and you uhm..hang in there!"

Move to stand up, standard to start inspire courage

DC 18 Fort save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

The poison burns through Tere's veins, inspiring him to try to twist free of the wyvern's jaws. "Some help, here?"

Escape Artist check to break free: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23

Thanks for the feedback regarding grappling and flying. Thankfully, nobody (except Thran) could have made an attack this round - so no recton needed! Yay!

Constitution damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

As Tere wriggles his way out of the wyvern's jaws, he feels weakened by the poison in his veins. Screeching angrily at the loss of its prey, the creature flaps its leathery wings and flies into the darkness of the night.

Given the path of its Withdrawl, only Telka can take an AoO (please include in your next post). Wyvern is now on the left side of map, out of range of darkvision and light. Tere, Alaric, and Shredder can still see it with their low-light vision.

Round 2, 3! Bold may act!
Jethro
Tere (-12, Poisoned 2/??, -2 Con) - please include a Fortitude save in your next post
Wyvern (-5, 10 ft high)
Telka
Banon
Thran (-6)
Alaric
Shredder

Environmental Effects:
- Everywhere is difficult terrain due to thick undergrowth (Alaric may ignore)
- Those without Darkvision can only see as far as Jethro's light spell allows (20 ft from Jethro normal light, 20 ft further dim light - double that for low-light vision)
- Inspire Courage +1

What do you do?

DC 18 Fort save, including damage penalty: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 5 - 1 = 10

Hands shaking, Tere fumbles a vial out of his pack, unstoppers it, and drinks down the contents.

Antitoxin, so +4 on poison saves.

Drawing a bead on the fleeing beast, Banon growls as it escapes his sight. Snatching up his quiver, he pulls the bow back again, waiting for the wyvern to return to his sight.

Jethro scowls as his tanglefoot bag flies a bit too high and draws his wand of magic missile and readies to fire at the wyvern if it comes back into view.

Fyi, antitoxin gives a +5, not +4

'I think I am basically going to just have to let it grab me, then I can deal with it.'

Alaric shrugs, which looks a little odd on a dinosaur, and then he starts running forward. He leaps up at the wyvern, talons and claws at the ready!

jump DC20: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (20) + 13 = 33 Now I roll well!

This provokes, as Alaric does not have Improved Grapple
charging grab vs CMD (+ damage dealt): 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 8 + 2 = 17

If it, indeed, bites him, Alaric will allow the grab to succeed.

Constitution damage: 1d3 ⇒ 3

Tere feels unsteady on his feet as the poison continues wrecking havoc on his system, and he hopes the antitoxin will help him resist the rest of the poison's damage. As Banon and Jethro prepare counterattacks should the wyvern show its face again, Alaric decides to take the fight to the dragon. He races across the jungle, the plants parting before him like waves on the shore as he launches himself into the air, claws and teeth bare to the wind!

If wyverns had the facial musculature to appear surprised, this one would be. But it gladly takes advantage of Alaric's distraction and snaps at him...

Bite vs Charging AC 12: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26
Bite damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
Grapple vs Charging CMD 18: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31

...and its teeth cut deep into the dinosaur-shaped druid, drawing squirts of blood and holding him fast.

Round 2, 3! Bold may act!

Tere (-12, Poisoned 3/??, -5 Con, Antitoxin)
Wyvern (-5, Grappling, 10 ft high)

- Those without Darkvision can only see as far as Jethro's light spell allows (20 ft from Jethro normal light, 20 ft further dim light - double that for low-light vision)
- Inspire Courage +1

What do you do?

Telka's spiritual weapon continues its assault on the creature.

Spiritual weapon: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

While Telka jogs up to Tere and tries to provide him with some emergency first aid.

Telka has a healers kit. If he hits the poison DC then you get a +4 bonus to your next save.

Heal: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (12) + 12 = 24

Shredder moves up, following Alaric, but does not jump. He looks up, talon clicking, waiting for the change to shred...

Thran continues to inspire his companions "Stand fast men we will...." at which point he notices Alaric charge forward and jump up at the Wyvern

"Dude...was that a jumping dinosaur?!"

I just realized there's a chance I can't actually see it...but still, sounds impressive

Then looking down at Tere at his feet Thran casts resistance on the poisoned elf before moving to the other side to get a better look at what's going with the Wyvern fight

Free continue inspire, standard to cast resistance on Tere, move to move a bit

Unfortunately, I don't think that stacks with Tere's cloak of resistance +1.

It doesn't. If it's alright with the GM I'll change my action to drawing a wand of cure light wounds while moving and use that on Tere instead of casting resistance

clw Tere: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

As Telka's starknife slices the wyvern, the cleric tends to Tere's wounds in an effort to halt the creature's poison. Thran helps how he can, tapping the elf with his healing wand.

In the darkness, the wyvern screams as it drops Alaric and floats down after him, pummeling the druid mercilessly with tooth, tail, and wing...

Fly vs DC 15 to hover: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

Bite, High Ground vs Charging AC 12: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 9 + 1 = 30
Bite damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Crit Confirmation: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 9 + 1 = 29
Crit damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
Grapple, High Ground vs Charging CMD 18: 1d20 + 13 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 13 + 1 = 32

Sting, High Ground vs Charging AC 12: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 1 = 12
Piercing damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Alaric Fortitude vs Poison: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Wing, High Ground vs Charging AC 12: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 1 = 9
Bludgeoning damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Wing, High Ground vs Charging AC 12: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 4 + 1 = 18
Bludgeoning damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

...poking and slamming the druid as it crushes down on his ribcage with giant jaws. Alaric isn't sure what stings more - the bite or the poison from the wyvern's tail.

Round 3, 4! Bold may act!
Jethro
Tere (-8, Poisoned 3/??, -5 Con, Antitoxin, Heal) (Looks like a 5 - 2 + 5 + 4 = 12 modifier to your Fortitude save this round)

- Those without Darkvision can only see as far as Jethro's light spell allows (20 ft from Jethro normal light, 20 ft further dim light - double that for low-light vision)
- Inspire Courage +1

What do you do?

'OW! I have had better ideas...'
fort save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Alaric rips into the wyvern that is grabbing him.
talon, PA, GMF, Grappled, IC: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 8 - 1 + 1 - 2 + 1 = 8 talon, PA, IC: 1d8 + 5 + 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 12

Shredder tries to rip his master free!

Snatching up his falchion, Banon picks his way through the foliage. "There you are..." he growls, before noticing the blood on dino Alaric. "This thing is tearing him apart!" he calls back, dropping the blade to ready an arrow.

Two move actions.

DC 18 Fort save, incl. CON damage penalty, alchemical bonus, and treatment bonus: 1d20 + 5 - 2 + 5 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 5 - 2 + 5 + 4 = 30

Between the alchemical concoction and Telka's treatment, Tere takes no damage from the wyvern's lethal venom. He unlimbers his bow and looks around for a target.

Jethro hears the cries of battle from within the jungle, but cannot see the wyvern to target it. He hurries in that direction.

Double move, only 30' total due to difficult terrain.

Tere, the wyvern is within your line of sight and you still have a standard action should you wish to attack.

As Alaric flails helplessly against his attacker, Shredder cuts and bites two gashes in its underbelly.

Round 3, 4! Bold may act!

What do you do?

First Telka spiritual weapon continues its assault.

Spiritual weapon, rnd 3: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Telka clicks his heels together and jogs forward. Rasing his hand he reveals the butterfly symbol of Desna and swirling grey mist once again erupts around him, filling the darkness with twinkling stars for a brief moment.

Free action for agile feeet, move into range and channel. The wyvern is out of range, everyone else except Tere is in range, just.

Channel: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 5) = 14

I will be there soon Alaric, try and hold it together

Alaric rips into the wyvern that is grabbing him.

You dont really need to put the grappled penalty into your attack rolls when hitting the thing grappling you as it is also taking -4 dex so they wash out. Unless of course I GM is applying the dex penalty to its AC separately. That could well mean the 17 bite hits if it hasnt been applied.
