Jevar Shadowmantle |
Hmm... so it’s not being used to watch us.
Jevar steps back and finally looks at the eye like the “person” that Boodilly is addressing. Frowning and scratching the back of his head, he asks it.
So..... what’s wrong there little guy? Can we help you move to a different location? Maybe Winter’s office?
Shakur Hektat |
"Weren't we told to..." Shakur says hushed before looking at the creature. "Blink twice if you understand." What in the nine Hells IS that?
GM Xavier Kahlvet |
The eye blinks once. The faint, raspy sound of a person sobbing emanating from it. The pungent stench of ammonia overwhelms the amnesiacs’ nostrils.
Shakur Hektat |
"I don't think it can understand us, nobody ever does. Anybody want to make a plan before stabbing the thing? Well, better question, does anybody think we should stab the thing?"
Urzok |
Well this is... different. Urzok keeps his sword trained on the eye from the moment he sees it. He wrinkles his nose at the stench emanating from it. "Zealots haven't. Let's move on," he suggests flatly. All the danger is on this side and the zealots haven't touched it. If they haven't we might want to know more first.
Shakur Hektat |
"I agreed to help take care of this....thing. I don't intend to go back on my word. Though maybe we should have researched before I said yes."
Jevar Shadowmantle |
Jevar tries to recall any relevant knowledge about such a phenomena.
Yeah, maybe we should figure it out a bit more before we go bashing it... He stares at it intently, with his hand on his chin.
Recalling knowledge...
Arcana: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
Occultism: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

GM Xavier Kahlvet |
Haha! Nice try, Jevar; those are supposed to be secret rolls.
Occultism: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
Religion: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Jevar Shadowmantle |
Doh! My bad. I recall you saying that some time ago, but my muscle memory took over (from other games).
Hmm, despite it's disturbing appearance I think it's harmless. That doesn't help us deal with it, as we also don't know how to move it. Also, I don't think fire would do much against it. Do we try to move it or just put it out of its pitiful existence? To be honest, I'm not sure we're going to find out much more about it.
Boodiddly |
"Do you think there's someone inside it?" Boodiddly asks curiously, studying the creature as well. "It's making sounds somehow, so there's likely a mouth somewhere. Or maybe we could just detach it from the wall?"
Recall Knowledge
GM Xavier Kahlvet |
Since I know Boodiddly’s player generally won’t post for another few hours, I’ll just post what they learned here: Boodiddly says that, as long as the group is careful, they could detach the whatever-it-is from the wall without harming it significantly.
Urzok |
"Give it a go then..." Urzok mumbles to himself as he tries to carefully cut the eye from the surrounding walls. Sick s$!* this is. Gonna need a drink after we bust out of here. Maybe even three. Holy hell. That is A LOT of runny fungus.
________
What sort of roll would it be for this? No problems with a GM roll to keep this moving.
GM Xavier Kahlvet |
Urzok moves up to the eyeball-fungus—the strange entity staring at the half-orc as he moves up. Using his sword, Urzok carefully cuts into the yellow fungus surrounding the eye, and when he does the faint sobbing from the eye stops suddenly as it its single eye widens and starts quivering, and, within half a second, it changes.
Half of the eye’s pupil juts out as the inner circle of pupil depresses into the eye. The the jutting-our portion shifts from a circular cylinder of blackness into a pair of lips and the inner circle of pupil becomes the cavity of a mouth. An unnatural squishing sound accompanies the eye-mouth growing teeth accompanied with vampiric fangs! So it actually looks like what the image looks like.
The newly grown fangs lash out against the half-orc!
Eye vs Urzok: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16
Damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
But the half-orc dodges out of the way just in the nick of time! Not counting you as flat-footed because literally anyone would be wary of this thing!
Jevar: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
Shakur: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 7 - 2 = 6
Urzok: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Eye: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21
What few strands of fungus Urzok managed to cut stitch themselves back together, as if the half-orc never cut them in the first place.
The eye-mouth wails, the sound echoing from it appearing to be that of three overlapping voices that sound as if the source were underwater.
”̡W̵̤̖̙̮̝h̜͔̱̲̻̗̥o̲͍͟ ̣̗̣̬̥͡h̶͙̖̯̖̬ḁ̘͎̖͚v͓̺̻̜e̸̪͔ ̻̱̳I̗̖̣͢ ̵b͙̣̰̙̺͍e̖̹̰̰̪̜c̼͔̭̘o̥m̤̼̪̖͇̀e̤̩̥?̢̣͓̥̗̰̘!̗̫͚̗͉͠ͅ?̦͍̯̼̞̦͙!̘͞“̳̳͍
A single, massive tear wells up in the eye, falling to the ground and further intensifying the pungent stench of ammonia in the hallway.
The muffled voices of awaking survivors comes from the chapel.
The eye is literally on the wall on the far end of the hallway, so Urzok is currently adjacent to it (think of its “space” as being where the white rectangle signifying a door is).

Shakur steps forward and casts Magic Weapon on Urzok's sword.
"Good luck buddy." Shakur says as he places a hand on Urzok's shoulder.
No actions left to raise shield. GULP
GM Xavier Kahlvet |
Urzok slashes his sword at the eyeball, getting it partially stuck in the wall behind it, but the eyeball wails in pain as it cuts deep into the surrounding fungus, but it immediately begins regrowing around the half-orc’s blade, seemingly unharmed as it lashes out against its attacker! [[R]], so Urzok can’t Shield Block since this attack occurred before he Raised his Shield.
Eye vs Urzok: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17

Urzok slashes once again at the eyeball, but finds his blade bouncing off of the wall behind it. He then Raises his Shield as Shakur moves up and magically modifies the half-orc’s sword
The eye-mouth once again wails, but this time as loud as a scream, as it cries out a large tear of ammonia!

The Half-Orc keeps his shield up as he shuffles backwards. Hoping against hope that he can stay out of it's reach, he takes a huge lunge to stab straight at the center of the eye. "Door is taking a beating, don't even know if I'm hurting the beast!"

Urzok, your sword was hit with magic weapon, so you got an extra die of damage. Also, apologies that I didn’t actually put down the damage Urzok took in the initiative card; transcription error on my part.
Extra die of damage: 1d8 ⇒ 4
Urzok slashes out against the eye, putting a nasty gash into the door behind it and practically breaking it open, causing the fungus to barely be able to hang onto the wall. The eye-mouth lashes out once again, but narrowly misses hitting Urzok as it just can’t quite reach!

Jevar Shadowmantle |
Just now down to 2/3 sanity. The slow burn...
No, don't despair now Urzok. Surely it's feeling threatened by your mighty blade. He almost says it as a taunt, joining in with the eye, as his mind begins to slip after the howling shriek of it.

Jevar blasts into the eye, blowing away a portion of the top of it and blasting a visible hole in the door behind it.
The fungus around the eye stitches around the nicks and holes in the door behind it, desperately trying to bring the pieces together as it wails once more.

One day I'll make a post without mistakes! FYI for everyone, the GM has cleared up a misunderstanding I had about Power Attack, so there will be more of that going around when Urzok isn't taking an attack for attacking. Raise shield, strike, strike.

[[AA]] Cast (somatic, verbal) produce flame
Spell attack, Fire damage: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 111d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
GM Xavier Kahlvet |
Urzok lunges forward, chopping at the fungus with his sword, and manages to slice right into the eye and into the door behind it—only this time his sword doesn’t get stuck in the door behind. The half-orc chops and shatters the wooden door behind the eye! The eye and the surrounding fungus falls to the ground, rapidly withering away and decomposing until it dissipates into nothing more than the faint whiff of ammonia hanging in the air.
The amnesiacs glance through the now-broken doorway. White tile, spiderwebbed with cracks, lines the walls of this cathedral-like hall. A prominent, oval desk faces staunch double doors, while hard benches and portraits of somber doctors line the walls. Regal stairs ascend toward a second floor, but rubble has crushed the upper flights, blocking passage. A sign above the double doors to the north says “Library.” Another sign that was once freestanding sits partially broken near the double doors to the south; the sign says “Welcome to Briarstone.” Lofty windows, gridded by bars, reveal yellow mist seething just beyond. Map Updated
Muffled voices continue to echo from the chapel.
What do you do?
Boodiddly |
"Whew!" Boodiddly wipes his forehead before patting Urzok on the leg. "Well done - and what a trick to lunge like that so it couldn't bite you back!" As he hears the voices from the chapel, his face falls. "Oh dear - it's alright, everyone, it's alright, it's gone..." His voice fades away as his short feet patter along the ground, carrying him back to the other survivors.
Urzok |
Urzok scrapes any residual fungus off of his sword before sheathing it. "Found an exit, but with all that mist outside, probably not what Winter had in mind," he points out. "Thanks Gnome, not sure where I picked that trick up, but saves my life!"
"I'll wait here while you comfort the, uh, mentally ill," he says, clearly not eager to go back into the chapel. "I'll stand guard, make sure nothing gets through here without us knowing. Don't take too long, I'm sure all sorts of 'fun' has been waiting to be found out there."
GM Xavier Kahlvet |
As Boodiddly calms down the survivors and Urzok stands guard over the newly-created doorway, the survivors begin filing out to resume their normal daily activities. Winter, however, approaches the doorway and scans the room beyond, being sure not to enter it herself. Her eyes fall on the windows covered with mist. The woman sighs.
“That’s disappointing, but not a complete surprise. There must be some way to get out of here, though. Maybe Doctor Losandro’s still alive out there and knows what’s caused all of this. Her office is at the very heart of the asylum. That’s a good place to start. She might even able to tell you who you are. If the worst has befallen her, though, perhaps there are other survivors out there. If you find any, bring them back here and we’ll shelter them as best we can. Goddess watch over you.”
Jevar Shadowmantle |
Jevar eyes the sign. Hmm, "welcome" indeed. I'm guessing the exit is this way. We should at least check it out. The library is probably further into the complex.
He pauses to enhance his protections.
Cast mage armor (should have done this earlier, it lasts until next spell preps!

Cast mage armor (should have done this earlier, it lasts until next spell preps!
At this point, I'm just assuming that if you prep mage armor then you cast it during your daily preparations.
Shakur Hektat |
"Creepy eye. Shifters. Mentally-ill. Man, I've never wanted to leave a place so much. Honestly, at this point, I don't care if it's death that takes me. Still would rather go on living, but let's just get moving alright. Deeper, center of the asylum. I assume the Library would go deeper, actually. That's my vote."
Shakur seems especially drained from that last one. But, if anybody needs some healing, Shakur is willing to do some medicine checks and then supplement what's left with his font heals.
Boodiddly |
"Ooo, I like libraries!" Boodiddly adds. At least I think I do...
Urzok |
"Sure," Urzok grumbles to Winter. Do this, do that, yeesh.
"Let's get going, no point dawdling here," he notes as he steps into the large room with the desk. "Anyone care where we go first?"
________
Shall we just go clockwise from the top of the room?
Oreb |
The raven perched on Jevar's shoulder cocks it's head to the side in curiosity at Shakur.
Eh, whats that? You never want to leave here? Well, I guess it takes all types!
Jevar Shadowmantle |
Jevar places his hand on his chin at the suggestion.
Hmm, you believe the way out is inward? I don't have any reason to refuse this, but my gut tells me otherwise. Still, it shouldn't take long to try the path for a bit. Onward.
GM Xavier Kahlvet |
I’m assuming that Jevar takes ten minutes to Refocus.
The amnesiacs gather themselves together as they make their way into the entry hall. A new destination in their mind, they make their way to the library.
*
To the Library to the North
*
Sagging shelves, held together by dust and an extensive system of rolling ladders, ring this library of husky, dull-looking tomes. At the room’s center broods a heavily worn table surrounded by uncomfortable chairs. A chandelier of iron vines dangles above. The scents of leather and old paper pervade the high-ceilinged space, but so does a distinct bestial musk. Several books lay strewn about the floor—pages ripped out and crumpled up in corners. Four ladders stand against each of the four bookcases—mounted on railings that run the perimeters of said bookcases. White Rectangles are the ladders. Map Updated
A high-pitched squeal echoes from the ceiling of the library, followed by another, and two more. On top of each of the bookcases is a tiny, rat-like creature with opposable thumbs and the horrid face of a human. The rats screech as they skitter about on top of the cases, speaking to one another in a strange language that hurts to listen to!
Jevar: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
Shakur: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 7 - 2 = 19
Urzok: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
Rats: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Critical Success: You move the ladder up to (notice the emphasis) 30’ along its railing.
Success: The ladder moves 30’ along its railing (notice the lack of “up to”).
Failure: The ladder moves 15’ along its railing (notice the lack of “up to”).
Critical Failure: The ladder doesn’t move.
A ladder is only able to move along its railing, and can move around the corners of the bookcases (like that makes sense), and, obviously, for the bookcases on the east and west of the library, the ladders can’t go all the way around the bookcase (it stops when it hits the wall).

GM Xavier Kahlvet |
Bookcase, Urzok. The rat is on a bookcase, not a table, meaning that it is just outside of your normal reach—I’ll allow the attack, though, because you could just as easily have Lunged at it rather than Striking it, putting it just within reach, but I’m going to call it cover (which, by the way, you use center of square to center of square to determine cover) because there’s a corner of the bookcase in the way. But I will be nice and say that Urzok made the attack from 5’ back, in which case (because threatening the second diagonal is still a thing), so he would barely avoid the cover.
TL; DR: if you have a 10’ reach, if you’re adjacent to a bookcase then a rat right on top of it has cover, but five feet back avoids that cover.
The weird rat dodges both Jevar’s fire and Shakur’s book and laughs at the two, distracting it long enough for Urzok to briefly leap up on one of the bookcase’s shelves and slash at the grotesque rodent!
The rat on top of the bookcase in front of Urzok yelps in fright as the half-orc scratches across its stomach! The vermin screeches angrily at Urzok, an aura of magical energy manifesting around it!
1st level occult fear Not gonna bother rolling for the critical success bonus, since the spell wasn’t targeting you.
Urzok Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
The creature’s screeching shakes Urzok ever so slightly Urzok is frightened 1. The rat then Steps to the other side of the bookcase.
The Red rat skitters over to the edge of the bookcase and picks up a book resting on top of it and chucks it down at Urzok!
Red vs Urzok; 2nd range increment: 1d20 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 5 - 2 = 7
Damage: 1d4 - 2 ⇒ (2) - 2 = 0
And like I said before, that errata that’s coming later in the week also states that attacks do a minimum of 1 damage before resistances/weaknesses/immunities are applied, so that’s how I’ll run it (already had that lack of a rule screw the enemies during a scenario I ran with a poisoned dart that rolled low).
The remaining two rats, however, wave their arms around wildly and screeching as they become surrounded in misty images of rats that crawl down the bookcases and coalesce on the ground, dissipating to reveal two mischiefs of rats yes, that is what a group of rats is called. The rats on the bookcases screech as they point toward the amnesiacs and the swarms skitter toward them angrily!
By the way, your characters would know all of this (it’s general enough that I’ll just give it to you for free).
The Blue swarm scurries up and stops at the half-humans’ feet. The Green swarm, however, moves down to be all around Jevar and begin violently biting him and his familiar!
Jevar: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21 Success
Oreb: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 Fail
Oreb Fort: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25 Critical Success
Oreb takes 1 damage By the way, Oreb’s Fort modifier is incorrect; it should be equal to Jevar’s (which is +5).
