Seeker, one of your fists gets stuck the creature

Kahina, Okaris and Kidhir, your actions.

Kidhir fires his longbow at the creature.

Kahina swings her scimitar at the creature

damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Okaris swings his scimitar at the adherer

The adherer attempts to slam Seeker

Seeing that his team mates are having issues hitting the creature, and he is not able to damage it even when he does hit it, Cymric starts a comedy routine about glue and horses, inspiring courage in his companions.

last round

Ogochukwu steps to his left and accesses the memories of the Pathfinder that used to wield his weapon. It begins to glow softly. activating legacy weapon

this round

Then he slashes at it with his bardiche, hoping the magic energy will damage the creature.

bardiche, attack, inspired, legacy weapon: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 1 + 1 = 11
cold iron, magic, slashing: 1d10 + 6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 1 + 1 = 14

Sorry it took me to check back in after my conference! I am back now and still really enjoying this game

What can I do while...adhered? Is it like being grappled?

Ogochukwu's blow misses.

@Seeker, yeah you are treated as grappled

Anyone else?

I have improved grapple, so I’ll try to counter grapple I guess.

Seeker attempts to reverse the grapple on the sticky creature, unsure if it will have many effect.
Grapple: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

Seeker, you are unable to break out of the grapple.

Azwynn, what are you doing?

Azwynn, your action.

Azwynn attack with hammer: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11

damage: 1d12 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Kidhir Longbow attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24

damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Kahina scimitar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Okaris scimitar: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Azwynn and Kahina both miss.

At this point Kahina, Kidhir and Okaris decide they have had enough and head back to town.

Where next?

Cyrmic; Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23

With the adherer finished, Cymric takes a quick look around for loot, and finding none he heads to the northern exit of the room and looks up the corridor, "well, lets get going. Don't want to miss the fun tonight at the Inn."

You leave by the northern exit and find yourselves on a staircase which heads deeper into the tomb.

Cyrmic; Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Stairs up or stairs down?

Cymric moves slowly up/down the stairs till he sees either a door or the next room, and describes what he sees.

The stairs go down

About halfway along the staircase Cymric you spot a trap mechanism which will release spears if triggered.

Cymric; Disable Device / Open Lock: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13

Seeing a trap on the stairs, Cymric tells the group, "hold for a moment, there is a trap here. I will try to disable it." He pulls his tools out of his backpack and goes to work on it.

As Cymric tries to disable the trap it goes off.

spear attack on Cymric: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (12) + 15 = 27

damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

The trap has reset

Cymric; Disable Device / Open Lock: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20
Spells: 0th/at will; 1st/3. Performance: 9/9 rounds remain; HP: 5/12 AC:16 T:14 F:12

"That did not go so well, but let me try again." says Cymric as he pulls the spear out of his side and goes to work on the trap again.

On the second attempt Cymric you manage to disable the trap successfully.

Moving on to B28

The air in this chamber is cool. The walls and ceilings are tiled with stone, but the floor is hard-packed earth, giving the area an unfinished quality. A long stone table rests against the western wall,flanked by two large brass urns. Two passages lead north and east out of the room.

Spells: 0th/at will; 1st/3. Performance: 9/9 rounds remain; HP: 5/12 AC:16 T:14 F:12

"Well, that is better. However, I am sorely wounded. Does anyone have any healing available, now that our cleric has left?"

Seeker stops to meditate for a moment. He's not in the best shape either, after the adhesive creature.

Ogochukwu shakes his head.

"I have no means of healing. But we have potions, yes?"

Cure Light Wounds potion d8+1: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Spells: 0th/at will; 1st/3. Performance: 9/9 rounds remain; HP: 10/12 AC:16 T:14 F:12
Ouch, forgot about the loot from the 1st dungeon....
@DM - We either need to recruit a healer type of some sort, or you need to load us up on potions / wands of curing and other status removing stuff. Also, I will be taking the cure wounds spells when I get another 1st and/or 2nd level spells.

"Right! I forgot we had some curing potions from that first tomb. Taking one of the potions out of his backpack, he gulps it down and much of the wound from the spear heals up. He then hands two of the remaining three potions to Seeker.

"Yea, you look badly hurt. Take these two, and we will hold the remaining one in reserve just in case."

What do you want to do next?

Cyrmic; Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

"Lets check out this table and urn" says Cymric and he moves up and inspects them.

Ogochukwu double checks Cymric's search for traps.

perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

You do not find any traps. The brass urns were used as part of the mummification process. You can hear what sounds like cats mewing coming from the east.

"What do you think that noise is, Cymric?" Ogochukwu asks as he moves to investigate

An earthy scent fills this large chamber. The ceiling and walls are tiled with stone, but the ground is bare earth. Stone benches are set against the east and west walls, and torch holders are mounted in the corners and on either side of a wide doorway to the west. The beginnings of several shallow, rough passage have been started along the eastern wall and in the southwest corner but the excavations are incomplete, ending in earth and rubble after only a few feet. At the south end of the room,a short, wide flight of steps descends to a set of stone double doors.

In the corner you can see a few cats.

Knowledge religion checks please

Seeker breaths a silent sigh of relief. The stone surroundings of this room brought comfort.

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

Seeker, you recognise the creatures as part of an Ubashki Swarm, a swarm of undead cats. They carry a disease that does strength and wisdom damage.

Columbus Day weekend was camper closing weekend. Wife and I are exhausted (and sad) from all the chores to shut down and close it up till next May.
Cymric; Knowledge (untrained): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13 Religion

"Seeker, what are those things and how do we fight them?" He draws his bow and waits while keeping an eye on the cats.

knowledge, religion: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

Ogochukwu eyes the cats uneasily. "These seem like a nasty lot, eh?"

Ogochukwu you recognise that they are a swarm creature and they do distraction damage and carry disease.

As you watch more cats appear and start to join the group.

’They carry disease.” Seeker signs. ”We should endeavor to deal with them from range.”

At this point the swarm appears to have noticed you.

Ubashki Swarm initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

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

Ogochukwu initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18

Cymric initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15

Azwynn initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

So initiative order is:

Block 1: You guys

Block 2: Swarm

So over to you

Cymric; shortbow +5 (1d6/x3), within 30 ft. +6 (1d6+1) : 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 71d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Cymric pulls out his bow and snaps off a shot at the cats, but fumbles it badly with his arrow going wild.

can we tell how best to do damage to them?

Cymric, your arrow misses.

You know the best way to defeat a swarm is to use spells/abilities/items that do area effect damage

hmm. Okay

Ogochukwu pulls out an alchemist's fire and throw it at the cats.

alchemist's fire: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
fire: 1d6 ⇒ 6

The alchemist's fire starts to disperse the creatures

Seeker, what are you doing?

Seeker draws two shuriken and throws them at the cats, hoping it might scare them away.

Shuriken Flurry 1: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
Slashing Damage 1: 1d2 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Shuriken Flurry 2: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Slashing Damage 2: 1d2 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

My internet doesn't wanna load the maps right now so I can't see where everything is at the moment.

Seeker's shuriken hits the swarm but not all of the damage gets through.

Azwynn fires her shortbow at the swarm.

Shortbow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15

damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

The swarm moves forward and moves over Seeker

swarm: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

damage: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Will save and Fort save if they hit

And back to you guys
