Seeker swings twice at the remaining skull.

Damage 1: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Monks Spade Flurry 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Damage 2: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Ogochukwu swings at the last skull as it approaches.

attack of opportunity, bardiche, attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
cold iron, slashing: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Then he steps around it and swings hard with his cestus.

silvered, bludgeoning or piercing: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Between Seeker and Ogochukwu's blow the remaining skull is destroyed.

The six goblets are worth 45gp each. There are also six silver plates worth 30gp each

Where next?

Shukara starts to raise Cymric's mace again, then lowers it as the last skull is shattered. "Well, I'm glad you people at least are capable of hitting things!"

Once the room is cleared of valuables, she glances southward into the corridor. "That links up to where we've been before, so I think we've cleared this side. Let's head back through the kitchen and see what's to the east."

Suggesting going into the room directly east of B19.

This small room is empty save for dust, debris and empty shelves built into the walls.

Ogochukwu searches the debris for anything useful. Then says "Double doors next, eh?"

perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Shukara joins him in looking around the room. ”Double doors? Sure, sounds good.”

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

The double doors open to the outside. A spacious yard fills the compound east of the house. To the east, several small outbuildings have been built right into the compound's outer wall. A well stands between two of these outbuildings, opposite a stone table and benches that sit in the shadow of the house. You do not see anything else in the yard.

”Pretty big yard.” It’s an inane comment, and Shukara knows it, but the silence of the necropolis is starting to get to her. ”Shall we check out the buildings in order from north to south? That will put us pretty close to the stairs once we’re done, so we can head to the second floor.”

Seeker nods at Shukara’s suggestion. A logical approach. He moves to check the northernmost structure, keeping a wary eye on the foreboding well in the center of the yard.

Cyrmic; Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

Cymric looks around the courtyard, and then says to Shukara "good suggestion. Lets' go" and he heads north.

A small granary with a domed roof and a small door in the front sits against the north wall of the compound.

It makes sense that such a large estate would have dedicated grain storage the family and no doubt large pool of staff, but it doesn’t hold what they’re looking for. Seeker moves on to the next structure to the east.

This building appears to have once been servant's quarters. Lying on the floor are the skeletons of 3 of the former servants.

Shukara follows behind Seeker, peeking inside the granary then heading to the servant's quarters. Seeing the skeletons, she once more fires an arrow at them to make sure they won't rise. "Best to make sure before we search more thoroughly."

Light Crossbow: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12
P. Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7

Shukara's arrow just misses the skeletons but it is enough to wake them and they start to move.

You can all have one surprise round action each.

Seeker almost smiles when the skeletons animate. The oracles extreme caution is well founded. He draws and throws one the shuriken from his bracers, not expecting it to do much damage.

Shuriken: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Slashing Damage: 1d2 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Seeker's shuriken misses.

Anyone else?

Shukara braces herself, lightly touching Seeker on the shoulder and bestowing a trace of divine guidance. "It seems nothing in this place is truly dead. Not skeletons, or empty rooms, or even disembodied heads!"

Casting Guidance on Seeker for +1 to his next attack roll, saving throw, or skill check.

"I am not so sure the granary is empty. Let's check it out, eh?" Ogochukwu says.

let's open + search the granary after this fight

Ogochukwu grips his polearm tightly, ready for a fight.

readied attack

how is Seeker so far from the door he just opened?

how is Seeker so far from the door he just opened?

I usually post from mobile and moving tokens doesn't seem to work so I can't update his token on the map that often.

have you installed the Google slides app?

Is anyone else taking a surprise round action?

Sorry, out of town visiting relatives.
Cymric; shortbow +5 (1d6/x3), within 30 ft. +6 (1d6+1) : 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 5 + 1 = 241d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Cymric fires a blunt arrow at the nearest skeleton.

Cymric's arrow quickly drops one of the skeletons.

Cymric initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Ogochukwu initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Seeker initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11

Shukara initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

skeleton initiative: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

So initiative order is

Block 1: Skeletons

Block 2: You guys

One of the skeletons moves across to attack Seeker.

claw: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20

damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Ogochukwu moves closer and strikes at the skeleton.

bardiche, attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
cold iron, slashing: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Shukara steps forward and swings her borrowed mace at the nearest skeleton.

L. Mace: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
B. Damage: 1d6 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0

Accomplishing nothing, yet again. She glares at her own hands as if they've betrayed her. "I guess this is what I get for only ever practicing with a bow. Not that I'm very good at that either..."

Cymric; shortbow +5 (1d6/x3), within 30 ft. +6 (1d6+1) : 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 5 + 1 = 251d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Continuing to pull blunt arrows out of his quiver, Cymric shoots at another skeleton.

Between Ogochukwu's blow and Cymric's arrows the remaining skeletons fall dead.

Where next?

Seeker gazes down at the bloody claw marks one of the skeletons left on his forearm and slowly shakes his head. The undead that hold this place seem bent on destruction. He moves on to the final building in the yard, again steering clear of the well.

Open B6, I think./

Ogochukwu goes to search the granary before joining Seeker

In the granary you find three fleshless human skeleton bodies in the granary and an adamantine heavy flail.

This small, one room structure is devoid of features save the ruined remains of furniture that have all but disintegrated with the passage of time. Seeker as you look in suddenly a shape bounds out and a large dog like creature attacks.

bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Knowledge arcana

Ogochukwu initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Seeker initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13

Cymric initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Shukara initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

dog initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Initiative order:

Block 1: Seeker

Block 2: Dog

Block 3: Everyone else

So Seeker, your action.

Seeker swipes at the dog creature.

Monks Spade Flurry 1: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
Damage 1: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Monks Spade Flurry 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Damage 2: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

[i]Seeker deals the dog a mighty blow

In retaliation the dog tries to bite Seeker twice.

Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15

damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Seeker for each one that hits you can you make a Fort 12 save please.

Block 3 your actions.

Cymric; shortbow +5 (1d6/x3), within 30 ft. +6 (1d6+1) : 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 5 + 1 = 141d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6 Not sure that hits

Cymric moves up so he has a straight shot at the god, and pulling a regular arrow from his quiver shots at it.

Shukara also quickly loads and fires her crossbow at the dog-like thing.

L. Crossbow, Melee Penalty: 1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 3 - 4 = 0
P. Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7

The bolt not only doesn't hit the dog, it barely leaves the crossbow before falling to the ground.

Cymric's arrow strikes the dog and it howls in pain.

Ogochukwu, your action

sorry for the delay. I've been sick since Wednesday. Still sick.

Ogochukwu takes the heavy flail, admiring it. He gives it a few practice swings and then stows it, returning to his bardiche. adamantine weapons are also masterwork!

just looked at the map. Placing Ogochukwu by Seeker to fit the actions I posted above. If he had been standing beside Seeker at the door he would have had an AoO, but I envision him standing over Seeker's shoulder, so no AoO

Ogochukwu drops his bardiche, draws the new flail and steps up to strike the creature with it.

mwk heavy flail, attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
adamantine, bludgeoning, piercing: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

No worries, feel better soon

With a mighty blow Ogochukw bludgeons the death dog to death.

Loot: 7gp
3 sp
12cp
turquoise earring worth 15gp

Where next?

With the creature felled, Shukara moves up closer to Seeker. "Are you all right? It looked like it was really trying to take a bite out of you. I've got some more healing if you need it."

Assuming he says yes...

CLW: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

"I think that's this whole floor cleared. Shall we move on to the next floor?"

Voting to head up the stairs.

Ogochukwu checks the bodies of the skeletons in the granaries, then agrees to move on

There is nothing of interest on the bodies in the granary.

Moving upstairs. This balcony wraps around a twenty foot square opening in the floor, overlooking the inner courtyard below and connecting the rooms of the second floor. Above, a square skylight in the ceiling provides natural light to the ground floor and ventilation for the entire building. Six different sets of doors lead off of this balcony.

"Closest doors are to the north. Start there and work our way around?"

"Lead the way Shukara" responds Cymric to her and he goes near the front so he can search for traps while going up the stairs.

This spacious room has entrances in the southern and eastern walls. The aged remains of dressers,a large bed and a divan lie in ruins. The husk of a large hornet's nest, gray, papery and devoid of life, occupies one corner of the ceiling. The spaces in the northeast and northwest corners appear to be closets. Their wooden doors have all but fallen off their hinges, and heaps of disintegrated fabric mingle on the floor. Between the closets stands a single lacquered dresser covered in dust.

Ogochukwu pokes at the fabric dust with his bardiche, having stowed the flail. "Any traps on the dresser, Cymric?"

Shukara, already halfway to the dresser to start opening drawers, pauses and steps back. "Traps. Right. Good idea to look for those first."

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
