GM Ietsuna's Debt to the Quah (Inactive)

Game Master Ietsuna

"Right behind you." Kalten answers with muted satisfaction. "The quicker the better."

Ijo is satisfied With the work we've done.

yes I believe we can report our progress with some confidence.

You make your way back through the sepulcher to the exit. As you reach the final chamber (first chamber of the sepulcher) you see a figure standing in the exit. A picture of the figure is on slide 6 Flanking the figure are two wolf like being that look to be made of energy.

Yellow moves toward Omar and snaps at him with its spectral jaws.

Force jaws: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26 Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Blue moves up behind it, but cannot get at the group just yet.

Moving forward, Kalten ducks left as the ghostly wolf snaps at him. He focuses on the bigger threat, detecting its karma with the sight of Irori.

Move action to enter, provoking from blue. Move action to detect evil on red and if it registers, swift to smite.

Assuming we are at full health which I believe.

Mr. Teeny will risk the AoO from yellow to move next to red and attack while it is flat footed.

Blue snaps its jaws at Kalten as he moves past.

Force jaws: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28 Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Red does not detect as evil.

My Teeny slips by Yellow as Yellow snaps at him.

Force jaws: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27 Damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Teeny stabs at Red, but senses that not all of the damage was effective.

The Professor hobbles ahead, squinting as he gazes upon the group's latest foes.

"A bone golem, eh? Not immune to fire, I'd suppose..."

Gesturing about, the tiny elder beseeches Brigh for a hot gift as a tiny red bead shoots into the room beyond and then explodes.

Use selective rod to exclude Mr. Teeny as needed.

Fireball DC18 Reflex: 8d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 2, 1, 3, 2, 2, 1) = 21

"We restored the dungeon and then its guardians came back. Perhaps they are sacred and we should just leave?"

Zzorn draws one of his adamantine blanched spear but waits for the scholars to let him know what the plan is.

move action: draw; standard action: total defense AC 29

The two guardians shake off the fire damage They are immune

The Warden tries to avoid the flames.

Reflex, DC18: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

It avoids some of the fire.

Ijo's hammer smacks into the Warden making a ringing CRASH. It bounces off ineffectually.

I have moved you to next to Red Teeny

Red makes a bite at Teeny.

bite: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 14 = 15 Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

The jaws snap but get only air.

Blue growls menacingly and flows through your ranks. Not provoking as it slinks through like water. It stops beside the Professor.

Yellow makes an attack at Omar. Its teeth bared it lunges at him.

I made a small mistake and the damage to the warden is shared with the guardians to an extent. Adjusted damage. Apologies

Mr. Teeny will tumble to a new position to get in flank on red.
acrobatics to avoid AoO: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17

If Kalten has reach and is flanking with Mr. Teeny, I will attack. Otherwise I will until he moves into a flank.

+1 Rapier with flank: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 131d6 + 6 + 3d6 ⇒ (2) + 6 + (2, 6, 1) = 17

I will like to use my reroll on that attack roll
+1 rapier with flank and GM Stars: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (4) + 17 = 21

Omar grunts again as another chunk of flesh is ripped from him.

FYI - He has fast healing/2 while raging, not that it is keeping up. I think he should be 35/53 hp with rage hp

Continuing his raging song, he steps forward and tries to slam the bone golem-thing.

Somebody get that dang dog!

If Mr Teeny has flank and therefore sneak attack, I will give red the Bewildered condition (-2 to AC,-4 to AC vs Mr Teeny)

Ijo catches the morningstar as it sails back to his hands, one of the wolves having bound up to he and the Professor. Stand back, old man. Let Najam and I handle this one.

Ijo accepts Omar's inspiration and smashes down his morningstar.

morningstar, raging song. AC 20: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22

Najam, the big cat will move to The Professor's position when he moves back and will lay into the wolf.

Accepting the rage, using own rage

Zzorn moves towards the Warden, avoiding its attention due to Omar's cover and strikes the lumbering guardian from up on high on the ledge!

Adamantine Blanched Spear, Power Attack, Attacking from High Ground: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 8 + 1 = 22
adamantine piercing dmg: 1d8 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16

"Why yes, of course, of course! Najam, please..."

The Professor nearly trips over his own feet as he peddles backwards from the otherworldly canine.

"Perhaps we should finish this a little quicker?"

The Professor casts blessing of fervor affecting Omar, Zzorn, Teeny, Najam, Ijo, Kalten and himself.

Seeing Ijo's weapon was unable to scratch the golem, Kalten lets his longaxe drop to the floor, quickly unwinding the chain around his waist. The dorn-dergar's adamantine head sails towards the golem but clips the wall, going wide of the mark.

Adamantine Dorn-dergar on Red, Fervor: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 10 + 2 = 15
Damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Taking the +2 to attack and AC from Fervor, currently AC24.

The Warden swipes at Teeny as he moves through in a roll.

AoO: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (18) + 14 = 32 Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

For his part Teeny retaliates, doing some damage, but less than expected.

Omar swings and likewise strikes, but less effectively than he should.

Ijo and Najam lay into Blue and do nice damage to it.

Zzorn takes adamantine and rams it into the warden doing damage but not as effectively as thought.

The Professor moves back and casts a spell to benefit the party.

Kalten swings and does full damage with his Dorn-dergar

This is going to provoke from everyone within melee range of Red, but it is too cool for me not to use this ability

Red convulses slightly and reaches into its chest. A split second later it draws out a handful of bone, flesh and sinew and throws it at Kalten.

Carrior Cage, RTA: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

Kalten is now in a cage of sinew, bone and flesh. effectively you are grappled

The two guardians continue their assault.

Kalten swings his Dorn-dergar at the Warden as the warden throws the cage at him. Kalten's swing misses and the cage lands around him. It takes Kalten only seconds though to slip out of the cage.

Mr Teeny also swings as the Warden throws the cage, but misses. Hi hits with his second attack, and some of the damage goes through, and is shared with the guardians.

The Professor considers submerging the warden in a wall of fire, but sighs realizing that such an effort would be more than it deserved.

Instead, he once again beseeches Brigh for her aid, this time suggesting she liberate Kalten from his cage.

Liberating Command, +14 on an Escape Artist Check for Kalten. Technically that was an immediate action.

Next, the Professor hobbles ahead to Omar.

"Alright Omar, just hold still a moment."

Cure Moderate (Omar): 2d8 + 7 ⇒ (5, 1) + 7 = 13

Omar shouts for joy in his battle song at the healing from the Professor.

With his fast healing he should be down -4 now

Kalten escaped with the professor's aid. The attack goes through

The warden looks around and makes a lunge at Zzorn gnashing its teeth.

Will use Selective Rod as needed to exclude Teeny, Omar, Zzorn.

Empowered intensified burning hands (DC16 Reflex): 9d4 ⇒ (1, 1, 4, 4, 2, 4, 4, 2, 1) = 23 +11 from empowered = 34

An intense sheet of heat shoots forth towards the golem as the Professor titters with glee.

Warden Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

The warden fails to dodge the Professor's burning hands.

Both the warden and the guardian fall to the floor as the flames lick across the bone golem.

Combat over. Well done all.

The guardians and the warden having been taken out you are free to leave. You emerge into the sunshine as the sun is dipping below the Iron Peaks.. Outside a team of Shoanti boneslayers have arrived and are preparring to reseal the sepulcher. They greet you and say that they will handle it from here, a not so subtle urge for you to be on your way quickly.

The journey back to the meeting area is uneventful; the river is calm, with the sunlight fading and eventually transitioning to a crisp, clear night. When you reach the Storval Stairs, you find that the councilmembers other than Memory Tender have cleared out, likely returning to their homes. Jia is there waiting for and casts greater teleport to transport you back to the Grand Lodge.

Ambrus greets you anxiously, requesting a report on how both the meeting with the councilmembers and the restoration of the sepulcher went. He is clearly relieved that both went well and thanks you for your efforts.

A few days after you returned to Absalom, Ambrus calls upon you once again to meet at the Grand Lodge. He informs you that he has received a delivery from Cousin to All as a thanks for the righting of the Lumketul’s wrongs. The contents of the delivery are the combined efforts of the councilmembers who were satisfied with the outcome of
this ordeal.

He gives you the scavenger's stone to keep along with the bag of holding and several doses of flameleaf extract. He also gives you a treeform cloak, a pair of kinsight goggles and a +1 returning bolas.

Thanks for running this Ietsuna! this one was a blast!

@GM Awesome final combat. Great work team!

”Strong work everyone. We need to ensure future missions do not cause this type of mess again! There is no glory in cleaning up our own mistakes. “

So please get your PFS details over in the discussion thread and I'll get this reported and all that jazz. Thanks everyone. When I first read this scenario I thought it looked like a lot of fun, turned out it was.

Thanks for the run!

Definitely a memorable run - thanks!

Good times. Thanks a bunch!!!!

Thanks for running. I enjoyed it.
