[PFS_CORE_Aerondor] 09-05 Call of the Copper Gate (Inactive)

Game Master Aerondor

Ironshanks drinks a potion as the group rushes through the opening he makes.

Argenta speeds everyone up. Hurrah!

Urias charges forward, but is left wondering how he will get up onto that stone structure. Grog follows Tatiana into the room. She mutters something over the fallen woman.

Gwen... where is Gwen? She seems to have vanished. Again. At least the owl is around

The mists surge forward, covering the eastern half of the room to a height of around five feet.

Those less than 6' tall will be breathing it if you are in the yellow area. If so, please roll a save. If you want to hold your breath, you may do so, that gives you a 50% chance of not inadvertently taking any in. Roll a 1d2, if you get a 1 you are lucky and no save required. Those on top of a box will be out of the mist.

Thinking of up high, a Javelin strikes out at Hera as she flies past.
attack: 1d20 ⇒ 1
But she has spent a lifetime guessing what the unpredictable Gwen will do next, and adroitly avoids it. The odd creature that threw it jumps.. or maybe flaps.. over to get a better view of the main group.

The odd man leaps into the air, hovering well out of reach of even someone on top of the stone work. As he does so, dozens of horrid black tentacles rise out of the foor, grasping at the party!

The area in the black circle is full of tentacles. This is difficult terrain - at the least. The following attack roll is a grapple check against each of you.
grapple: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14
Well, that was a good time for another one
At least for now, they seem ineffectual.

Status, bold may post. Party is hasted. Yellow area requires fort saves if you are less than 6'. Black area is difficult terrain.
Argenta
Grog 21 damage
Tatiana
Urias
Gwen 4 damage - invisible.
(hera) 2 damage
Ironshanks - protection from evil
TEN (round 2)
unconscious woman - stablised.

Grog moves out of the tentacles and taps himself with his wand.

clw: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Fort save 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23

Angered and feeling helpless as the man flies out of reach, Urias is stumped...

Seeing no other place to go, He begins to climb some crates....

Climb 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (15) - 1 = 14
Wow. cloudkill and Black tenctacles in the 1st round?

Ironshanks was right, this is a clusterf*ck of a room!

Peeking through his full plate visor Ironshanks shakes his head as he sees a cloud of unhealthy looking gas headed his way, and now a mass of slap happy tentacles popping up in front of him "What n the Christ did that woman sign us up for?"

He quickly hustles over to the stone... thing where the creature tossed a javelin. He drops his crowbar and starts climbing. The magical haste really speeds up the process.

Climb vs DC15: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
Climb vs DC15: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

20' of movement to get to the stone, 20' of hasted movement failed climb. Second move action climb check passes: 1/4 speed at speed of 40 = 10ft of height gained out of 15?

Argenta takes a deep gulp of air.

Do I need to save: 1d2 ⇒ 1

Grabbing Imrizade and drawing on her hasted speed she drags the woman towards the room exit.

Tatiana calls for her last channel of her Pharasma's power to heal everyone, hoping Imrizade will wake up.

May the Fate of Life be in Your Hands

Channel Positive Energy (heal): 1d6 ⇒ 2

Then, she moves away from the tentacles.

@Grog, you can have finished healing up prior to the combat if you want. You had time, so no need to take actions doing that in the combat. Just roll all the healing in a spoiler.

Urias resists whatever is within the cloud. But has a hard time climbing out of it. I've moved you up to a low box, which has your face out of the mist for this round. It will just be a DC 10 climb check to move up to the next higher box if you want.
You can make another climb attempt if you want

Ironshanks shows him how it is done, climbing up out of the approaching cloud toward the winged creature throwing javelins.

Argenta grabs Imrizade and drags her from the approaching mist.
@Argenta, not for the quick grab, I think you were (just) out of it.

Tatiana meanwhile heals the worst of the parties wounds, bringing Imrizade around.

Status, bold may post. Party is hasted. Yellow area requires fort saves if you are less than 6'. Black area is difficult terrain.
Grog 14 damage
Urias (saved vs cloud) - one action remains.

A nauseating yellow light emanates from a glass sphere levitating ten feet above a distant stairway, which leads up to a large copper door etched with geometric patterns and sigils.

Who's got the last ghost trap?

Beuller? I guess that means that Gwen has all the McGuffins then?

Gwen looks into the room.

spellcraft: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26

Typical.

Gwen calls in Raguinori's Debt to fly. What else she does really depends on who has the ghost trap/containment item.

I'm going to assume Gwen does at the moment. However this one appears active, like the first you met (but not the second). You'll need to deal with the creatures in the room before working out how to get it into the container.

Gwen take off!

Hera spirals evasively closer toward the ceiling.

Move and total defense.

Gwen reminds of those anime robot shows I watched...
Urias is 5"9 so a little shot there...
Climb 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (5) - 1 = 4

Urias tries but fails to climb up the crate, his arms feeling weak and heart beginning to speed up.

No No NO No. please don't act up now. he thinks as the herb infusion he had injected earlier seems to be losing its effect.

thanks GM

Grog climbs up on the crates towards the creature. red

He whistles. "Yo bub over here"

double move

climb: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

Are we on round 2? I am not sure why I ave dropped below the bad guys in initiative?

I do a rolling initative bar, so after people have acted they drop toward the bottom, that way generally the people to act are at the top.

@Urias, it is only a 5' step up from where you are, so I'm happy with DC10 on the climb for that, so you make it up.

Urias and Grog both climb the various obstacles, aided by the supernatural speed bestowed on them.

The mist continues to advance into the room. The weakened Imrizade, obviously out of her mind, fishes around in her belt for a fan, presumably overcome by the enormity of the situation and needing to cool off. However she turns the fan on the mist and as she waves it back and forth impressively strong winds blow the mist away... for the moment.

"There is little more I can do.. I have only small magics left." Almost to herself she mutters "I can make someone larger, or magic missile him. Or just chill him little."

Although someone spending a round using diplomacy on her might convince her to try the fan again or use a spell to help you. A good check might get several rounds of help

The Javelin thrower, Grog now notices, has more than the usual complement of arms. It uses them to slash at the mighty warrior even as it also tries for a bit of lunch. While it can't quite manage to chew on him, the daggers leave grog a mass of wounds.

The flying man glares are Urias, who feels a huge headache coming on. Wracked with mental pain he almost collapses.

@Gwyen. I put you wrong before. You can fit the orb in the bag. It would be a full round activity, but you suspect the bag would contain the mist that is spilling from it. Even with haste you couldn't have got to the orb last round though, but feel free to retcon your movement for last round if you want to.

Imrizade 2hp
TEN (round 3)

Lady Imrizade, please, help us! Your help will give some balance in this fight.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26

Tatiana tries to convince Imrizade to help them in the best of her abilities.

Then, she tries to hide herself behind the boxes.

Stealth: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

Argenta raises a hand and sends a ball of flames at the creature fighting Grog. She draws on the power of her rod to exclude any nearby allies from the area of effect.

Casting selective fireball at the creature murdering Grog. I will center it on top of the cabinet, it should avoid Grog and Hera with selective spell.

Fireball damage: 7d6 + 7 ⇒ (1, 2, 2, 5, 2, 4, 6) + 7 = 29
DC21 reflex save for half. That is a rubbish damage roll, I am going to use 4 uses of the unparalleled supplier facton boon to reroll the 1 and the three 2's. The spell deals an extra 4d6 - 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (5, 6, 4, 6) - 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 14 fire damage for 43 total.

She then steps behind the crate to try and get out of sight of the flying caster.

5' step

Ironshanks tries to climb the last 5' to the top, he remembers some distant training he had on the plane of earth. Three points of contact, ya ya, ya old battle axe!

Climb, Boon vs DC15: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 3 + 2 = 25

He moves to the top with blinding speed (for an old Dwarf at least). "Alrighty, so what do we got here..." He continues moving closer to the enemy, drawing out his war axe as he goes and strapping on his heavy wooden shield.

"Ready ta tango?" He asks in a muffled tone, his beard sticking out of his metal visor.

Ok, adamantine war axe 1H, shield in the off hand. Prot Evil potion not included in stats. Regular AC25.

@Tatiana, would you care to provide guidance as to what you would like her to do?

Tatiana encourages Imrizade to stay in the fight.

Boom! For a moment the many armed monstrosity vanishes in a ball of smoke and fire. Grog sees his life pass before his eyes. Then he opens them to realise it must have just been an illusion.

ref: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

Although the smoking body of the creature in front of him kind of makes him wonder...

Argenta smiles to herself. Those high power reagents really made a difference.

@Ironshanks, eveyrone you will face in this room is evil, so please, include the PfE in your stats!

Ironshanks makes it up to the top of the stonework to find nought but a smoking body, and grog.

Asks Tatiana seeing that the room is safe for now of the deadly fog.

Will Save vs DC 19 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

"Arrghhh" Urias clutches his head in pain at the man's glare....

Sweeping his arms about, he takes a defensive posture....

Total Defence...

Will: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

LOL not again

Percentile: 1d100 ⇒ 29

"Ah duh..duh"

Grog seems dazed.

Argenta raises a hand and sends a ball of flames at the creature fighting Grog. She draws on the power of her rod to exclude any nearby allies from the area of effect.

Casting selective fireball at the creature murdering Grog. I will center it on top of the cabinet, it should avoid Grog and Hera with selective spell.

[dice=Fireball damage]7d6+7
DC21 reflex save for half. That is a rubbish damage roll, I am going to use 4 uses of the unparalleled supplier facton boon to reroll the 1 and the three 2's. The spell deals an extra 4d6-1-2-2-2 fire damage for 43 total.

She then steps behind the crate to try and get out of sight of the flying caster.

5' step

Ironshanks flips his visor up and stares down at Argenta "Seriously! We had him!" He flips his visor back down and grumbles something in Dwarven that surely sounds surly.

Stat line updated. No worries on the fireball Argenta. Ironshanks is just voicing his personal displeasure.

Cast's shocking grasp then fly to grapple!

unimproved invisible grapple (CMB) v fuchsia (invisible, haste): 1d20 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 2 + 2 + 1 = 22 I'm not exactly sure on the interaction with shocking grasp's +3 bonus on attack rolls if the opponent is wearing metal armor (or is carrying a metal weapon or is made of metal), or if it even matters.

electricity damage?: 5d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 2, 1, 2) = 12

Hera moves in to aid on the next attack. As she is tiny she waits to make sure that Gwen has a hand on the guy first, then moves in when it doesn't look like she's under threat of an AoO, and readies to aid Gwen's atk roll the next round.

@Ironshanks, you can change where you ended up if you want, although with the tentacles and all, I figured getting up high might be in your interest anyway.

Gwen closes invisibly on the caster and reaches out to give him a nice hug to make him feel all better.

Well, that was a shocking experience for him. Nobody has hugged that hub-eyed, hunchbacked wierdo since he left his mothers arms.
concentration DC 12+spell level: 1d20 ⇒ 1 Sadly, I don't think concentration checks fail on a natural 1

He just glares at her, and Gwen feels almost overcome with revulsion.

While readied against a cast, so far as I can see, there is no obvious signs of the "Spell being cast", so Imz can't disrupt it. However she can still unload a regular magic missile, soo..
Will DC 19 from Gwen, if you are within 60' of the little runt, you are nauseated.

Seeing something is happening, Imrizade fires off a volley of magical missiles. They explode against an invisible shield around the man.

Distressingly, and adding to her disgust, Gwen sees his fried hair start to uncurl itself as his body heals itself.

Then the mist starts to flow back into the room.

TEN (round 3)
Wierdo - 7 damage; grappled.

All spells have manifwstatiosn, even ones which lack regular components so they can still be identified with spellcraft and trigger reactions based on noticing casting occuring.

Argenta conjures a ball of fire on the top of the cabinet and directs it to leap at the enemy caster.

Hitting him with a flaming sphere spell dealing 3d6 + 3 ⇒ (1, 3, 6) + 3 = 13 fire damage with a DC20 reflex save to negate

He seems immune to your magic missiles, maybe keep the mist away from us? says Argenta to Imrizade.

Gwen and the man are grappling in mid air, I'm happy to apply the spell, but the sphere will only burn him for the one round, unless you direct it each round. Just checking that is what you want, as normally flaming sphere can give you slightly better action economy.

Yes, I expect I will have to throw it at him every round with a move action. It can jump 30' I think.

Seeing that the toxic gas is going back in the room, Tatiana says to Imrizade
Trigger your magical fan to stop the gas to continue flooding the room!

Then she moves to Imrizade and heals her with her wand she draws.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Tatiana heals Imrizade some more, while Argenta summons a ball fire fire. While it bounces past him...

reflex: 1d20 ⇒ 8

Either he avoids it, or he has some magical protections, as there is no sign of fire damage on him.

Ok if I know the result of that fireball I'll be changing my turn to the following.

Ironshanks reaches the top of the stone block and swears, seeing his target in a smoldering heap. "Ya wanna see a Dwarf shoot a longbow do ya? I guess ya do!" He draws it out and lets and arrow loose at the floating caster across the gaseous floor.

Longbow: Cold Iron Arrow, Haste: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 7 + 1 = 201d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Also: Did we get a chance to roll knowledge vs whatever/whoever our assailant is?

This fight is not very friendly to a lvl 4 melee. I've got a longbow and I have a boon I can burn for a low chance at one dispel magic.

The bug-eyed man, tries to twist away from the arrow, but Gwen's position makes that difficult for him, and Ironshanks ironhead sinks in. The man looks unimpressed, and unhappy.

You could roll against the four armed thing, but it is toast. The man... well, I guess you could try an arcana check, but there is not a lot to learn.

With nothing much he's able to do, Urias attempts to take pot shots at the flying man.

Shoot 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 121d8 ⇒ 8 lol miss

Grog moves towards the party.

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30

"Where are you guys?

He doesn't seem affected by the cloud.

This fight is not very friendly to a lvl 4 melee. I've got a longbow and I have a boon I can burn for a low chance at one dispel magic.

Apparently, he is a 9th or 10th level caster guy you can't disrupt with grappling (I have really never read the rules regarding the whole mentalist-casting-thing). If he were a wizard he would need to beat a Concentration DC = to Gwen's CMB of +2 haste +1 (though she's not 'rolling' it just now so who knows) + the spell level that he's casting + 10. Psionics.... Why did it have to be psionics? If only I had rolled better on my % chance of having them during character creation (27 years ago). Here I was hoping for a scrawny, STR 7 (aberrant blooded) sorcerer with slinky arms.

Will save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

spellcraft: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Sigh.

Gwen flies for the door, while trying to mouth "Go get 'em gals!" but it doesn't come out that well....

Single hasted move.

He doesn't seem affected by the cloud.

I think there is a 50-50 chance of it making you make a Fort save.

Since she's there....

"WHOO!"

talon v fuchsia (haste): 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 1 = 24 damage: 1d4 - 2 ⇒ (4) - 2 = 2

other talon v fuchsia (haste): 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 7 + 1 = 28 damage: 1d4 - 2 ⇒ (3) - 2 = 1
THREAT!
confirm?: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 1 = 17 damage: 1d4 - 2 ⇒ (1) - 2 = -1 = 1 non lethal

fly (hover): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

If you are in the cloud and holding your breath, there is a 50/50 chance of it affecting you. Grog made his save anyway.

Gwen flees the horrid man she was grappling. Bemoaning that she willingly touched such a foul creature!

Hera provides cover for her as she flees, digging talons painfully into the man.

Urias fires at the man, but is distracted by his pain and misses.

Grog dashes through the room, as Imrizade takes out her fan to again blow back the mist.
break?: 1d100 ⇒ 33
tentacles vs Grog: 1d20 ⇒ 6
Somehow Grog manages to avoid the grasping tentacles again, whether that is skill or dump luck is unclear, but he once again surges forward.

The Garundi man glares at Grog, who feels wracked with pain.

Grog swings at his fellow half orc. But misses.

attack: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 15

Grog is in pain (-4 to checks) - not sure why he would be striking at Urias?

I'm sick but I don't wish to be dead!

Longbow: Cold Iron Arrow, Haste: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 1 = 131d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Longbow: Cold Iron Arrow, Haste: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 7 + 1 = 231d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Thanks to the haste Ironshanks launches another pair of cold iron arrows at the man. "Lay into 'em!" He hollers from across the room.

Lady Imrizade could you please get Ironshanks bigger?

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 19

Another of Ironshanks barbs sinks into the man, eliciting a grunt of pain.

Imrizade nods to Tatiana. She seems worried, but proud of her arcane powers.
If you want one of you could also use a know(arcana) instead of diplomacy to try and get her to do your bidding in this fight.

I failed the Will save. I thought if I did I was confused that's why I rolled percentile?? In the post on Friday you had -" Will DC 18 to make this just one round." Sorry if I misunderstood

"Someone give me the gift of flight!!" Urias beseeches...unable to join in the fight except maybe taking pot shots.

And here I thought Urias did something to Grog.
Shoot 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 251d8 ⇒ 1

I failed the Will save. I thought if I did I was confused that's why I rolled percentile?? In the post on Friday you had -" Will DC 18 to make this just one round." Sorry if I misunderstood

I think the confusion has to do with the undulating mist, which has a 50% chance of poisoning you each round you are inside of it. I haven't paid too much attention to it, but I'm pretty sure it is not a confusing poison, but a stinking cloud kinda poison. That, and it probably provides some concealment. Also as I understand it, I think it only effects you if you are less than 6' tall. So go get 'em, appropriately-leveled, (hopefully) tall person! I'm just going to float here and vomit. ;)

GM Aerondor How long do I vomit (or is that a number expressed in feet and determined by the distance from Gwen's mouth and nose to the floor below)? ;) And is it a move action to "bag the ball" with the ghost trap or a standard action? Gwen might still be useful! And I think scoreboard needs a conditions update.

@Grog. The will DC was against the pain effect. You made the one against confusion earlier.

Urias plugs away at the man with his bow. He is starting to look like a pin cushion, but his flesh keeps ejecting the arrows almost as fast as they arrive.

@Gwen, you are nauseated if within 60' of the man. Grabbing the orb in the bag will be a full round action once you are next to it. Unfortunately if you are nauseated, the only action you can take in a round is a single move.

"Ah"
