Anyone else?

Seeker's blow hits the centipede, Cymric misses.

Anyone else?

Azwynn fires a second shot at the remaining centipede.

Azwynn attack, composite shortbow: 1d20 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 1 = 9 with point-blank shot within 30 feet; otherwise subtract 1 from both attack and damage rolls if creatures are 30-70 feet

damage, if any: 1d6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 1 = 9

Azwynn misses

Okaris, Kidhir and Ogochukwu what are you doing?

sorry for the delay, I was out of town and the trip took a lot of my time and attention.

Ogochukwu steps forward and strikes at the centipede with his bardiche.

bardiche, attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
cold iron, slashing: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

No worries

Ogochukwu deals the centipede a mighty blow, it is still there but only just

Cymric; shortbow +5 (1d6/x3), within 30 ft. +6 (1d6+1) : 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 91d6 ⇒ 5

Cymric takes a step up to move closer to the centipede and fires another arrow, but alas, to no one's surprise, he misses.d

I don't think your roll went through, Daniel.

Seeker attempts to dodge the insects jaws, then unleashes his own flurry of attacks.

Where to next?

Where do you want to go?

Keep moving westward. We can look around, then head northward toward B3.

Cyrmic; Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

Now that the centipedes are dead, Cymric comes up to the front and looks around to the north and suggests, "since we have no idea what the layout of this place is, lets check out this room before moving to another location."

Moving west you get to B4

A rectangular stone building sits in the northwest corner of the estate. At each corner stand columns carved to resemble men and women with their arms crossed over their chests. A set of stone doors stands in the southern face of the building, carved with bas-relief faces of two men. Hieroglyphs are carved into the doors just beneath the faces.

The heiroglyphs identify the building as the "crypt of the House of Pentheru and warn 'May defilers be cursed by the gods until their day of judgement.'

Cyrmic; Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11 Assumes he finds nothing.

Cymric checks the stone doors for traps, and to see if it is locked. "All safe. Azwynn, you and seeker can open it now" he says and moves to the middle of the pack.

Azwynn studies the stone doors as well, coming close enough for her stonecunning to kick in. She also studies the door for traps.

Azwynn perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

She waits to see what she notices before attempting to open the door.

Azwynn, you do not find anything of note. It appears that the doors are centuries old and open inwards.

Azwynn puts her shoulder to the door and begins pushing.

Azwynn STR: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

With a mighty heave Azwynn manages to push the door open. The door opens onto a set of stairs leading down. The stairs end in what appears to be an undershrine area.

A stone altar sits upon a raised stone platform in the centre of this square room. Caryatid columns carved in the likenesses of male and female figures with their arms crossed over their chests and khopeshes or ankhs in their hands stand at each corner of the platform. Empty torch holders are built in all four of the room's corners. A further stairway descends from this chamber to the north. On the altar appears to be a mummified body.

Ogochukwu observes the recurring statues and wonders if they are symbolic of anything unusual.

religion: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

He also has a look around inside for any traps or treasure.

"This is probably the fake double, eh Cymric?"

He will enter the room with the others when they are ready. He wants to investigate further.

Cymric; Knowledge (untrained): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 Religion
Cyrmic; Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21

Cymric concentrates for a moment about what he remembers concerning burial rites for this area and replies, "Probably correct Ogochukwu, though religion was not my best area of study." He then goes to inspect the altar and the mummy.

You can tell that the altar is dedicated to Pharasma.

stealth: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27

You do not notice anything untoward.

The insect locks its jaws around Seeker. The blow is mighty, but it allows Seeker to easily smash the creatures head with a stony fist. He grunts as the creature falls, but his life as a stoic monk takes over; he simply steps away from the body and continues the exploration with the others.

Fort Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

Stupid bug got the last laugh. I could use some healing, got 3 HP left.

Knowledge (Religion): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
Knowledge (History): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
Knowledge (Nobility): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19

Seeker approaches the mummy alongside Cymric. It seems strange to him that the mummy would be left out like this an be undisturbed by grave robbers after so long.

Seeker, you recognise the spiral on the altar as that of Pharasma. You also think it is very unusual for a mummy to not be placed in a coffin or a casket. There is something off about the mummy too, its wrappings are not bandages but wisps of skin.

Knowledge nature check

What do you want to do?

Azwynn studies the wisps of skin, trying to recognize them.

Azwynn Knowledge Nature: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

Ogochukwu is very puzzled by this mummy as well, but he doesn't know anything about it. He feels uneasy leaving it behind them to explore the rest of the building, but also doesn't know what to do with it.

we can just move on if no one can identify it

Cymric; Knowledge (untrained): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 Nature

Cymric tries to help Azwynn figure out what the wisps of skin are, but fails miserably.

Azwynn, you recognise that the body is not a mummy but a creature called an adherer, as you look at it closely you can see that it is moving.

Sorry, you don't get any more on that roll I'm afraid.

Before we go further in Kahina calls the party to gather closely around her.

Channel: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Realizing that Seeker needs more she turns a spell into a cure spell.

CLW dropping Endure elements: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Channel: 1d6 ⇒ 4

F*%% you dice roller!

9 points healing for Seeker, 5 for everyone else.

Azwynn says, "Skin's a critter called an adherer but I donnae ken more t'an t'at. Best ta keep yer distance, 'cuz it do be movin'."

She removes her Lucerne Hammer from her hip as a precaution, then glances at her companions to see if they have any interest in engaging the creature. She herself will not attack the thing unless it attacks first.

The adherer moves and attempts to hit Azwynn.

slam: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

If it hits grapple: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (9) + 19 = 28

Azwynn, Pellius, Ogochukwu and Kahina you can have attacks of opportunity.

Ogochukwu recoils for a moment at the sight but then slashes at it with his bardiche.

bardiche, attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
cold iron, slashing: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Seeker nods a silent thanks to Kahina for her healing, though the healing provided seems to be less than the effort she put forth would imply. Perhaps the deathly nature of the tomb oppresses healing magic? This is something he will have to look in to later.

Who's Pellius?

Okochukwu's weapon smashes into the creature but not all of the damage gets through.

Sorry Cymric and Azwynn and Kahina also gets attacks of opportunity.

Cymric has his bow out. I thought that a PC had to have a melee weapon in hand to take an AOO? However if he can take one with a ranged attack, here are the rolls.
Cymric; shortbow +5 (1d6/x3), within 30 ft. +6 (1d6+1) : 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 181d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Cymric, your arrow hits the creature but it seems to ignore the damage.

Azwynn and Kahina you can have an action

Wincing slightly at the creature's attack, Azwynn takes a swing at it with her Lucerne Hammer, unsure if its bashing damage will get through.

Azwynn attack with hammer: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
damage, if any: 1d12 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

Azwynn misses.

Kahina, over to you

Kahina attacks the creature with her scimitar.

scimitar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Kahina misses

Azwynn initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Cymric initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

Seeker initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15

Ogochukwu initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Kahina initiative: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (17) + 0 = 17

Kidhir initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

Okaris initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21

Adherer initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

Initiative order:

Block 1: Adherer

Block 2: You guys

The adherer attempts to attack Azwynn again.

slam: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

slam: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Over to block 2

Cymric; shortbow +5 (1d6/x3), within 30 ft. +6 (1d6+1) : 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 241d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Not sure why his arrow did not do any damage to the creature last time, Cymric fires another arrow at it, and sees that it hits.

Seeker moves to strike the undead creature.

I don't think I see a token for the monster. I'll flurry of blows if it's within a five foot step, if not I'll move to it and make one attack.
Unarmed Flurry 1: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Bludgeoning Damage 1: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Unarmed Flurry 2: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Bludgeoning Damage 2: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Cymric's arrow strikes the creature but it takes no damage.

Seeker hits the creature.

Oster can you make 2 reflex 14 saves - as you hit the creature you realise it is covered in a gooey sticky substance.

Anyone else
