Kesten Garress |
Kesten has one more piece of news as you prepare to leave.
"There are more and more reports of trolls pouring in. One particularly piece of disturbing news is that there seems to be a large concentration around that strange mage's house, you know, Bartholomew. No one has been able to reach him for a couple of days now. He may be in dnager, or more worrisome, he may be behind this problem in some way. I suggest haste in investigating the situation."
Faerin Cordova |
Surprised and concerned by the amassing of trolls, Faerin frowns. "Either they've identified him as a threat and are moving to act against him, or he's luring them. Either way, a concentration of them is definitely a threat."
Octavia Reborne |
"We should definitely look into this. It could be a matter of deep importance." Octavia points out.
Faerin Cordova |
"Alright, we'll definitely check in on him on the way to the ruins.. If there is anything dire that requires preparation, I'll find a way to send word." Faerin tells Kesten, before leading the group out onto the road

You leave early the next morning and head for Bartholomew's place. When you arrive, you encounter several groups of trolls. About half of them bear the brands that make them immune to fire, but you cut your way through to Bartholomews house. You also see that Bartholomew's new traps
summon giant spiders as several times you encounter trolls fighting them. The spiders ignore you and concentrate on the rolls (making your job somewhat easier).The door to his house is open and the inside is slightly ransacked, but there is no sign of the mage.
His barn that houses his lab also has the door open.
I'm not going to have you slog throught the all the trolls, as that would take forever in this format. Consider that Harrim has used about half of his healing so far. Ocatvia, I'm not sure what spells you have memorized, but mark off half (rounded down) of your offensive spells for now.
Faerin Cordova |
Staff in hand, Faerin follows, raising her other hand in the air and activating her signet ring, sending a pulse of energy washing over her companions, filling them with a sense of courage and conviction.
Bless. +1 morale bonus on attack rolls and on saving throws against fear effects. 7 mins (min CL for Forge Ring)
Perception(low light vision): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 28
Octavia Reborne |
Drawing her bow, Octavia quickly chants the words of a spell, running her hands along the weapon as it thrums with power. Eyes sharp for sign of a target, she moves to just ahead of the Baroness, maintaining enough distance from the front line to give her a clear shot.
Regongar Stormborn |
Reg shifts into his minor form as soon as he hears the noises.
He whispers to Fury to also be ready to attack ...
Forgot about SpellStrike!
Reg can deliver Acid Splash as part of his scimitar attacks!
Faerin Cordova |
"They've made it in! Hit them hard, and keep an eye out for Bartholomew!" Faerin calls out as she reaches out to touch Dog, speaking a few words of druidic as the magic flows into Ekun's companion.
Moving in, she keeps an eye out for the enemy and any sign of the wizard.
Cast Acid Maw on Dog. (2 additional rounds after attack)

Note that none of the trolls are FF as they are already in combat. I will have the map up shortly. The order of battle will be everyone except Ekun and Harrim, then the trolss, then Ekun and Harrim.
Faerin Cordova |
Seeing the trio of trolls converging on Bartholomew, Faerin gestures at a point in the air between them, calling upon The Green to conjure a burst of barbed, acid-filled nettles between them.
Stinging nettles (DC 18 Reflex): 3d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 3) = 7
Sucessful save halves damage and avoids 1d6 ⇒ 1 acid damage next round
Anton Dragi |
Anton activates his boots to move 30', tumbling the kast bit to avoid attacks of opportuniyu from the two trollsnearest him. He then attacks Troll 1.
Immedaite/swift - use staggerproof boots to move 30'
Full round - full attack, fighting defensively.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (14) + 16 = 30

I feel like there was a Fury token at one point.
Reg appears to hesitate ... but knows the trolls aren't going to respond to reason. "You could have escaped. You could have been free. My friends were right, you need to be stopped!"
Octavia Reborne |
Aiming for the formerly captive troll, Octavia releases a targeted shot hoping to bring it down.
+1 composite shortbow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16
Magic/Piercing/Gravity Bow: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8
Sneak Attack: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 3) = 8
Faerin Cordova |
Its "10-ft.-radius burst" so covers a 20ft diameter circle. I can center it to hit only the trolls and fall just short of him.
Regongar Stormborn |
Not entirely sure why we care about Bart ... we could always spare him the acid and help him out afterwards, but unless I took Geometry wrong, if the radial position of the blast edge roughly coinciding with like 45' were positioned just below 195' of Bart's current position, Bart would be fine, and the 3 trolls and Anton would be blasted. I'm willing to be wrong tho.

Troll 1: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
Troll 2: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Dimwit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Anton's first attack cuts deep, but his second glances off of the Troll's armor. Octavia successfully hits Dimwit (he's not FF...).
Bartholomew casts a spell defensively (Shield).
The troll that Anton hit, as well, as his partner, turn to attack him.
bite: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25
claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30
confirm crit: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25
bite: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15
claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
claw + rend: 1d8 + 1d6 + 18 ⇒ (1) + (5) + 18 = 24
Anton's defense is too much for them, but one lucky claw gets through.
Yes, I know you must hit with both claws to get rend normally, but these two trolls have the Cooperative Rend feat, so if either hits with one claw, they get to rend as well if they both threaten the same opponent.
Dimwit ignores everything and only goes after Bartholomew.
Harrim moves up to attack, braving the Troll's AoO.
AoO: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
damage: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
Harrim takes a solid hit and tries to return the favor.
1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26
damage: 1d8 + 1d6 + 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (3) + (5) + (2) + 6 = 16
OK, Ekun is up, then everyone else (except Harrim). Don't forget you have Bless from Faerin up.

Trollreaper +10/+5 (1d12+4/x3): 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 10 + 1 = 211d12 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 4 + (2) = 8
Dog Bite +9 (1d8+4 plus trip): 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 1 = 241d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Dog Trip +9: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 1 = 14
Ekun only gets one attack because he had to mover more than 5 feet. edit: added bless
Ekun and Dog move up and attack the nearest troll.
Anton Dragi |
Reeling from the claw that slashed him so deeply, Anton continues his assault on Troll 1.
attack 1: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (17) + 16 = 33
damage: 1d8 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 14
attack 2: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (10) + 11 = 21

Moving into better position, Octavia focuses on Dimwit, seeking to protect Bartholomew
Acid Arrow (ranged touch): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14
Acid: 2d4 ⇒ (3, 1) = 4
Additional Acid damage for 2 rounds
Galahad0430 |
Ekun, Dog's bite should be +11 2d6+10, and his CMB for trip should be +12. He is large now. I have his stats as follows:

CMB +12

Galahad0430 |
As Ekun and dog move up, it becomes apparent that he has Combat Reflexes as he does an AoO against both of you.
AoO vs Ekun: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (16) + 13 = 29
damage: 1d6 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15
AoO vs Dog: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24
Ekun is hit, but Dog squeaks by (Dodge feat gives an additional +3 bonus vs AoOs).
Ekun's attack is turned aside by the troll's armor, but Dog sinks his teeth into the troll. However, Dog fails to trip him.
Octavia also hits Dimwit with the acid arrow (did you move there? That would provoke from Troll 2).
Anton again lands one hit on his target.
Anton, I completely messed up the attacks on you, they should have been +15, so you got bit once too. Also, the damage bonus was a little highr
additional damage: 1d8 + 16 ⇒ (4) + 16 = 20
Dog's damage: 2d6 + 10 ⇒ (6, 5) + 10 = 21
Faerin Cordova |
Picking up a trio of pebbles in her hand, Faerin whispers to the stones, reminding them of a time before the erosion and passage of time, when they carried much greater mass and size.
Cast Magic Stone
Regongar Stormborn |
Reg, are you doing anything? You didn't do an action (except move) on round 1?
Correct - only the move for Reg & Fury that round.
This round will do the scimitar attack (charged with acid splash) against the troll Reg is near (Fury will work to distract Dimwit)Just need to figure out the numbers
Regongar Stormborn |
SLAM ATK: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17 Fury attacks Dimwit to pride cover for Bart
Reg will be attcking Troll2
SPELLSTRIKE(acid splash): 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 9 + 1 = 181d6 + 4 + 1d3 ⇒ (3) + 4 + (2) = 9 Scimitar delivers Acid Splash
Galahad0430 |
Fury is able to help Bartholomew, but Reg's attack bounces harmlessly off of the troll's armor.
The two armored trolls continue to attack Anton, abandoning power attack to try and hit.
bite: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (3) + 15 = 18
claw: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16
claw: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (8) + 15 = 23
bite: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (2) + 15 = 17
claw: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (12) + 15 = 27
claw: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (19) + 15 = 34
damage: 2d6 + 16 ⇒ (1, 5) + 16 = 22
Once again, a single claw sneaks through Anton's defense, and the accompanying rend staggers him.
Harrim, seeing the damage dealt to all, especially Anton, channels twice (using 3 channels to do one as a swift action). He also envelops Dimwit in flames both times.
5d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 3, 2, 3) = 11
1d6 ⇒ 5
5d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 4, 4, 4) = 14
2d6 ⇒ (1, 3) = 4
Harrim can reroll 1's once when he channels to heal, so the first channel is 15, and the second channel is 16.
Will Sv: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Will Sv: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Dimwit takes 23 fire damage.
OK, everyone except Harrim is up again. And everyone except Anton should be fully healed now.

Ekundayo bathes in the warm glow of Harrim channel "Thanks Harrim" as his wounds close. He and dog then attack the troll (Troll2) directly in front of them.
Anton Dragi |
Anton switches to the other troll so they can drop it faster. He also sacrifices some offense for more defense.

Letting out a cry of pain as the troll manages to get her with it's extended reach, Octavia focuses her spellcasting carefully, leaving no opening to be attacked even as she breathes a sigh of relief as Harrim's healing washes over her.
She extends a hand, sending an arrow of coalesced acid punching into Dimwit's back.
