On Hiatus

Laara's arrow sticks in the spiders leg, but is shaken out as it crawls forward in response. Clinging to the side of the stone bridge, it flexes its back and launches thick barbs back in return. The pain of its injuries cause them to fly wide of the mark however.

Ranged Touch on Laara: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

As the spider falls, Laara spends a moment to adjust her eyes before wandering forwards while calling back to Deno'thar.

No, but Zey was probably just panicking. Drow aren't real anyway: they're just a fairy tell told to kids to get them to eat their veggies.

If the spider dropped before she did anything, Laara will instead Swift action to learn Blind Fight for 1 mintue, then confidently walk across the bridge. If she's attacked/stopped by an invisible thing during her first action's worth of movement, she'd then just punch whatever emerged.

In that case:

As Deno'Thar points out some signs of strange movement, Laara moves near the space while focusing on her sense. Still using a Swift action to learn Blind-Fight

What, here? But there's nothing HERE!

The brawler lashes out unexpectedly with a roundhouse kick into the 'open air'.

Making this attack a Knockout blow. If it hits, that thing needs a DC 20 Fort save or be dropped unconscious for 1d6 ⇒ 2 rounds.

Aericus calmly steps forward next to Laara with a flourish of his rapier saying, "If you return to the astral plane from whence you came, you can live, otherwise we'll squash you like your spider friend."

Ready an action to hit an enemy within his 5 ft. reach that he can pinpoint a square for, visible or not.

Laara hears a muttered curse directly in front of her get cut off as her fist strikes true. The sound of a heavily armored body hitting the ground follows. Almost an instant later, two drow in fullplate appear, blades scraping along Aericus' magical protections and missing Laara as she dodges aside instinctively.

The dark elf is disappointed at the minor cut he manages to deal to Aericus, before taking a wound of his own. Aericus notices that some protection resists his blade, reducing the wound slightly.

Laara kicks a one of the dead purple-skinned creatures as the rest of the party nonchalantly passes her and continues on over the bridge. She calls out Uh, hey. These look like drow. Like from the children's stories.

As you make your way through Round Mountain, you see that the remaining astral invaders are being matched by your fellow Pathfinders. While you could pile on and crush them further, reports from the inner ruins of the tapestry suggest the undead are more numerous than the teams engaging them.

Ammen gives a little shrug. The drow are rare and little known but hardly a myth. As with many such claims there is often a grain of truth at the heart of them.

Ajax sighs as he can't help but feel the gods conspired against him and his preparedness. "Well done, Ara."" Ajax rubs Ara's chin as she approaches. The ranger can't help but chuckle at Laara, half-wondering if it's all a gag.

If his hour buffs have not expired by the time we reach the next destination, he replenishes them.

On Hiatus

I believe you have spent roughly half an hour in the tapestry, plus a minute or two from the combats. It will take ten minutes more for you to reach the site of the undead incursion. Maps and encounter will be up by tonight.


On Hiatus

As you walk the tapestry bridge you realize the ruins are near the Muckmouth tribe territory. Aram Zey's voice reverberates along the threads composing the dimensional bridge. “The undead are strongest in the tapestry’s ancient ruins. Cut this problem off at its source.” Exiting into the battlefield, you see a multitude of undead tearing themselves out of the ground and structures of the tapestry as if they were ripping off burial cloth. Pathfinder teams cut down lesser undead left and right, allowing you to make your way further into the ruins, where stronger undead lurk.

Ahead, a giant corpse floats down from the ziggurat it just tore free from, a ghostly form merged with its chest. Ammen and Flyn catch sight of a smaller corpse with hideously elongated legs and a bow of bone crouched on the side of the ruin, attempting to avoid notice as it draws back the disgusting weapon to launch an arrow of bone. Both undead have the strange strands of cloth trailing from their skin.

Deno'thar casts a quick spell to hasten his allies and begins to sing.

I'll probably use Haste and Inspire Courage, but could change depending on results of knowledge check. I'll use a swift to activate the Worthy Foe (Undead) boon for a +2 bonus on saving throws against them if my knowledge check reveals they have special abilities that force saves.

On Hiatus

Deno'Thar recognizes the smaller undead to be a baykok, an undead archer with the ability to devour the souls of the dying to gain power and prevent the return of the dead via raise dead. The larger undead is a devourer, another soul devourer that uses consumed souls to power spell-like abilities.

As Aericus moves in, the archer launches a flurry of arrows at Flyn! Caught off guard, each arrow strikes true. Flyn feels a numbness around the wounds as negative energy corrupts his flesh. One Fort save from Flyn. The devourer turns toward Aericus, but not fast enough to strike.

Flyn, let me know if you have any protection from negative energy damage, as that would change the damage signifigantly.

Flyn grimaces in pain as he’s hit, saying, ”Nice pounding this...let’s see who pounds longest!” as he fights defensively, firing a barrage of blunt arrows back at the bony undead archer, using Perfect Strike...if it falls before I’m through shooting, he’ll target the target the larger, flat-footed undead...

On Hiatus

Flyn blasts the archer back, smashing it to bony bits that quickly unravel into thread. The last shot punches a hole in the devourers shoulder that doesn't seem to distract it from Aericus.

It did not. Flyn's last shot seemed to encounter no resistance.

Another flurry of bone arrows arcs out at Flyn, although only the first catches him off guard enough to strike true. A second undead archer crouches on the opposite side of the ziggurat. One more Fort save!

Ammen recalls the energy drain of the devourers slams, dealing negative levels on successful hits. He also recalls the spell deflection defense that shunts certain spells to the captive soul within instead of the devourer. (Nothing that I expect to come into play here.)

So try not to let the big one touch you. Got it! Laara yells as she closes with the blinded creature and pulls out her own bow. She sizes up the behemoth, then fires at the large floating creature.

Swift action to learn Dedicated Adversary: Devourer
Attack: 1d20 + 18 + 1 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 18 + 1 + 3 + 2 = 26 for Damage: 1d8 + 1 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 3 + 2 = 9 plus Sneak Attack: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 4) = 9

Because it is blind, if Laara hits and deals Sneak attack she will Disroient it for a round (-2 to attacks, -4 vs her)


On Hiatus

Melee Touch on Aericus: 1d20 ⇒ 2
Parry: 1d20 ⇒ 18

The devourer twists in air, assaulted from all sides, but still reaches for Aericus blindly. The massive hand is easily swatted away, leaving the undead unable to strike.

He then moves up, maintains his performance and prepares to switch his performance to a discordant strike if the creature begins to cast a spell.
