GM Litejedi's Curse of the Crimson Throne - Anniversary Edition

Game Master Litejedi

Magda tries to track where Girrigz went, as they move through the warren.

survival: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26

Marcus raises his shield and moves forward, eyes scanning the rooms.

Full defense, move.

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15
Stealth for whatever it's worth: 1d20 + 2 - 4 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 2 - 4 - 1 = 9

The pair of shriekers begin again as the party passes, a cacophony, but the group tries to hustle through the muck to get to the next room.

As a reminder, the shallow flow of sewage in this room makes the floor somewhat slippery in the spaces it covers. Moving at half speed through the muck offers no problem, but a PC who moves faster or makes an attack in one of these slimy spaces must succeed at a DC 12 Acrobatics check or fall prone. Since I posted it earlier, I assume everyone's avoiding the slip and fall, and will therefore move all at half speed.

As an aside, everyone notices that there are cracks in the wall to the north, but that these are much too small for almost anyone to get through, other than a small creature. The party advances, and then, advances again two rounds as nothing happens, and there doesn't seem to be anywhere else to go. It's obvious that the light-footed Girrigz didn't bother to hide his trail, and he went east through the crack in the wall, towards which the party is headed.

C3

Several pieces of broken furniture, dried hay, and fragments of lumber burn in a small fire at the center of this open, ruggedly carved cavern. Short alcoves filled with filthy, oversized rats’ nests dot the walls, and the disgusting drip of polluted black condensation echoes through the chamber. A thick flow of sewage spreads across the western edge of the chamber, seeping from a crack in the western wall to another in the south.

The tracks head further east.

Several fat black rats are squeaking and poking an alley cat that is captured in a small cage sitting on the floor in the northern part of the room.

There sounds like there is movement coming from the southern crack.

"The walls south don't look too safe," mentions Vera. While the group pauses for a moment, she searches the area for magic and reports what she finds. Detect magic.

"I think they're trying to get us to go that way for a trap. East is where they went, but only smallish folk can fit. Meaning only..." she looks at Erasmo "... you."

"Mhmm." We should have considered their home turf advantage here. Perhaps lured them out into the open. Although Marcus wished to share his thoughts on strategy, they were in enemy territory, and who knew who was listening?

Marcus carefully examines the wall from a respectable difference.

By saying 'falling apart' does it seem more secret tunnel or more cave in?

It’s not secret because it’s obvious, and any person can walk through. It’s not a cave in. It’s more that the stone and mortar is crumbling due to the moisture and the dirty water flowing past.

Erasmo nods. "Let me take a look..." He says as he pokes his head inside the narrow passage.

"Careful..."

Yaziyah moves up behind Erasmo, her hammer held at the ready to strike at anyone who might attack her friend.

Still trying (and failing) to avoid the muck, Vera sends some dancing lights with Erasmo to ensure that he can see.

Erasmo creeps up to the hole, and looks in without looking around the corner. He can see what he can see on the map.

Erasmo can also see a wererat behind him, waiting in the northern passage.

Erasmo gestures to the others, indicating the wererats in the northern passage before he steps further into the passage, looking to the north.

Basically moving 5ft. ahead to see around the corner, to the north.

Erasmo steps into sight of the hulking Girrigz, who sighs with a raspy voice, "too bad. But - we will try to avoid killing you." He snaps his fingers, and with a tremendous squeaking, rats begin to pour from the northern walls.

Four dire rats come from the west, biting at Vera. Two come to bite at Marcus. It's a knowledge nature 11 to know they're dire rats and 16 to know their statblock. Also, a swarm of rats pours and enters Marcus and Magda's space. It's a knowledge nature 12 to know it's a swarm with the swarm traits (tiny creatures and that it can inflict disease) with a 17 to know the statblock (though these are a little tougher than normal).

Yaziyah AOO (rat swarm): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
Yazi Rat swarm damage: 1d12 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15

With a vicious swing, Yazi nearly disperses the rat swarm!

15 damage to the swarm!

Yaziyah AOO (green rat): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
Yazi dire rat: 1d12 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17

With a second desperate swing, she obliterates one of the rats which is trying to attack Marcus.

The swarm gets through Marcus' damage reduction and harms Magda and the fighter, both, though neither seem to be too distracted by the swarming things.

Looks like Vera might get bitten, but I don't know if she mage-armored herself - Tazo might have forgotten. If she did, no hits from the little rats.

The small rats seem to bite ineffectually at the party.

Despite All My Rage...- Round 1 Other/Vera/Magda/Girrigz/Erasmo/Marcus/Vera/Yazi/

Vera and Magda are up!

nature: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15 dire rats
nature: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20 rat swarm

Magda knows her rats! "Rats, big ones Dire even, and the small ones are all twisted up together like a swarm, swinging, smashing, poking don't work as well, but fire does." Magda says that just as Yazi starts smashing rats into oblivion.

Mags doesn't have fire but she does have acid. Fishing in her magical pack, she finds them with ease. 2 vials. One of which she tosses into the swarm, knowing some of it will hit her and Marcus as well but decides it's worth it.

marked the square she tossed the acid at
acid throw, ranged touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Marcus frowns down at the biting rats. "Magda, Vera, move." He jerks his head towards the area to his right. South on the map, open up path to the left and I'll plug it with my big meaty health bar.

"Yay, okay" the half orc says, as she tries to push through the sea of rats.

five foot step to the south east

Vera is more than happy to oblige Marcus's orders--she quickly withdraws south!

Otyugh Initiative: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (3) + 0 = 3

One of the Otyughs that Magda has employed to clean the sewers has been trapped, apparently, by the wererats. Vera has not met it before.

It weakly says, ”I am very ‘ungry, please give me food.” It looks like it will likely attack if not fed, or convinced otherwise.

The party hears the voice of the Otyugh, and Magda recognizes it as one of her friends.

Magda, when you can: please name and ID all the otyughs (including this one) in the city! There’s one per district, and I believe two have already been set.

The blurry, indistinct form of Girrigz steps forward, rapier in hand, and with a practiced control, steps to skewer Erasmo. Blurry form means that he has some sort of magical effect.

mithril rapier: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (11) + 15 = 26
mithril rapier damage, precision: 1d6 + 4 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 8 = 13

With a sneer, and a quip, he says, "how can you hope to win a duel against a master - all alone?"

Initimidate: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26

Erasmo is demoralized for 2 rounds.

Erasmo is a little shaken by the wererat's confidence. Girrigz then watches Erasmo closely, to see what the halfling will do next.

A few more plump dire rats seem to scurry around the warrens, approaching the party to cut off their escape. In the western shrieker room, coming from the gaps in the wall that were passed.

One of the wererats with a shortsword approaches Marcus and tries to skewer him.

short sword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

Another wererat in the same area as Erasmo tries to get him, this time with a bite attack.

bite: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
bite damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Fort Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Fort Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24

Erasmo seems to have been hurt by the bite, but suffers few ill effects.

Note that Vera can't see very well, because her dancing lights are with Erasmo!

Despite All My Rage...- Round 1 Other/Vera/Magda/Girrigz/Erasmo/Marcus/Yazi/Otyugh

Erasmo, Marcus, and Magda are up!

Erasmo spits at Gizzrick, trying to hit his eye then tumbles back, trying to get closer to the others.

Dirty Trick, defensively, shaken: 1d20 + 13 - 4 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 13 - 4 - 2 = 13
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (16) + 14 = 30

AC 25, touch 18, CMD 20 (22 vs. deft maneuvers, 24 vs. dirty trick)

"Flowers!" Magda recognizes her friend, and catches a look from Yazi about the name. "no, he doesn't smell like them or nuthing. He just likes them, that is, and has collected everything that looks like them. He even got this painting..." she trails off realizing they are fighting for their lives.

Moving out toward where Vera is standing she waves to him, "Flowers, I ain't got anything right now, but there are plenty of rats in here that look nice and plump. Want come grab a half dozen or so?"

diplomacy: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

Yaziyah takes a swing at the dire rat next to Marcus, and who was in the path of Erasmo's retreat. "We don't want to hurt you, but if you keep hurting my friends I won't be held responsible for what happens," the Shoanti growls.

Attack green rat: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19 Damage: 1d12 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17

Using the lucerne hammer for now to threaten the additional dire rats.

Overrun: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (20) + 17 = 37
Damage: 1d8 + 7 + 2 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 2 + 4 + 1 = 16

Overrun: 1d20 + 17 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 17 - 2 = 20
Damage: 1d8 + 7 + 2 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 2 + 4 + 1 = 22

Marcus plows over the swarm of rats, ruthlessly crushing them under his armored boots as he moves to plug the western hole.

Overrunning the green rat, and then the swarm, ending on the space I moved to on the map.

"Retreat to the south, now!" Marcus roars, briefly sweeping an arm towards the opening Yazi is in front of.

If we can all get down there we can chokepoint them.

"Yes, yes, lots of rats for you, Flowers!" says Vera into the darkness, trying to muster excitement. She hopes Magda has become good friends with this otyugh!
Diplomacy (aid): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18

Calling on some magic, she blasts the nearest wererat! Orange.
Magic Missile: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (3, 3, 1) + 3 = 10

Marcus destroys the rat swarm and one of the rats, and the remainder of the dire rats scurry away. That was the other block - they're all useless/dead, so they run away. Except for three of them, which shift forms in a way that looks uncomfortable, returning back to their cloaked hybrid forms. Two step up, menacing Marcus one on each side, while the others draw crossbows. The one in the hall that remained in hybrid form, moves up and takes advantage of Marcus' flanked position. Orange get flanking, even though blue didn't attack, because blue threatens. Red and green just return to hybrid form.

orange short sword, flanking, Marcus: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 2 = 13

Erasmo seems to be able to get out from away from Girrigz, due to the cover, but snarling, the wererat switches to rat form, and scurries past the halfling, positioning himself in the other room.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (18) + 14 = 32

The one other wererats joins him, moving past Erasmo to surround him. The last wererat moves to block the small passage as a dire rat.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22

*****

Flowers waggles his tentacles, and seems to nod at Magda, "yes, rats are good. but I am stuck here by the ratmasters." He waves his tentacles and slaps the wall a bit. "could eat a shoe maybe, better than a smelly rat." The otyugh seems to salivate for a moment.

Vera's magic missile hurts one of the wererats. Orange

Despite All My Rage...- Round 2/3 Vera/Magda/Girrigz/Erasmo/Marcus/Yazi/Otyugh

Everyone is up!

Marcus ignores the rats, trusting his armor to protect him. He shouts at Erasmo. "Can you get clear?!" He digs his heels in, his barked question demanding a fast response.

If Erasmo can get south of us we can chokepoint the enemies, but if not then Marcus will come to his rescue. Also Yazi I will need you at least 1 square further south in order to take all the aggro.

Magda lifts her foot, starts to wiggle off her boot, while she starts talking loudly so Girrigz and the rats can hear her "The city gave us each other. Rats, orc kids, otyughs, all of us, and you're here just trying to be better than the others, like those in the big buildings looking down at us. Then you got people like the Wall, yay he's a wall, and things, but he's solid and he cares in his own way, so..." she pulls the boot off and nearly losses her balance, but does lose her train of thought.

Fortune on Marcus, roll twice and keep best, plus she retrieved her boot for Flowers.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34

Erasmo moves away from the flanking rats and then bolts towards his friends. "Perhaps..."

First move action at half speed due to acrobatics. Second move action will provoke from Orange.

Marcus does not risk failing any shoving that may prevent him from plugging up the choke point that he has created. Instead he backs up, planting his feet, and draws his silver morningstar to keep hammering away at his opponents!

Swift action to activate temp HP. 5 foot step south (I'm currently covering Yazi on the map), move action to draw silver morningstar, attacking orange rat with fortune.

Silver Morningstar Attack (PA): 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 10 - 2 = 21
Silver Morningstar Attack (PA): 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 10 - 2 = 10
Silver Morningstar Damage (PA, Silver): 1d8 + 5 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 4 - 1 = 13

Marcus grimly raises his shield, towering over the rats.

Vera tosses another magic missile at Girrigz’s rat form.

magic missile: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (4, 1, 3) + 3 = 11

Yazdi tries to knock out the injured wererat.

Attack green rat, nonlethal, PA: 1d20 + 9 - 4 - 1 ⇒ (2) + 9 - 4 - 1 = 6
Damage: 1d12 + 8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 8 + 3 = 19

But misses.

Enemy turn coming ASAP

Girrigz returns to hybrid form, and snaps his fingers, directing the others to pen the party into the enclosed part of the sewer. With a raspy call, he says "keep them in there and whittle them down - use the weapons we collected!" The ones near the front keep menacing the party with their short swords, but those that are further away draw alchemical weapons and crossbows, and look to take shots at the party.

Girrigz switches back to hybrid form.
Wererat 5 & 6 do the same.
Wererat 1 draws a flask of odd material, and throws it at Yazi.

ranged touch, yazi has cover: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
Yazi Fort Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
Yazi is sickened for 3 rounds, Erasmo and Marcus are sickened for 1 round.

The wererats with swords in front, and look like they're trying to distract Marcus before they attack.

orange feint (DC 16): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
damage, SA: 1d6 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (1) + 3 + (2, 5) = 11

Miss anyway.

feint (DC 16): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
damage, SA: 1d6 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (1) + 3 + (2, 3) = 9
attack confirm: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
damage, SA: 1d6 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 3 + (4, 6) = 18

aid AC (green aids blue): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Fail!

Looks like Marcus takes 8-2=6 damage.

Despite All My Rage...- Round 3/4 Vera/Magda/Girrigz/Erasmo/Marcus/Yazi/Otyugh

Everyone is up!

While chanting on fortune for the wall, Magda also tries to put from rat people to sleep.

chant to maintain Marcus's fortune, and casting deep slumber in the green box, dc 17

As Erasmo pulls away from the cluster of wererats, Vera sees an opening to call forth purifying light! Casting Burst of Radiance with arcane point to hit a whole bunch of wererats including Girrigz.

Burst of Radiance damage vs evil: 5d4 ⇒ (4, 2, 2, 3, 4) = 15 Reflex DC17 or blind 1d4 ⇒ 2 rounds, otherwise dazzled.

will save green: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
reflex save orange: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
reflex save red: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
reflex save pink: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
reflex save purple: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
reflex save girrigz: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21

Green falls asleep. Orange falls unconscious. Pink looks blinded. Purple and red don’t appear to have taken any damage.

As the girls weave their spells, Erasmo steps forward and gives combat to the ratfolk. He fakes an attack before going for the real stab.

Feint: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18 @Blue
Attack (short sword), PA: 1d20 + 11 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 11 - 2 = 23 @Blue
Damage, PA: 1d4 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 4 = 11
Sneak Attack?: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 3) = 10

reflex save blue: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Blue looks blinded but doesn’t take damage.

Per discord, I made a mistake about the turn - I missed the correct area of burst of radiance, and I missed that deep slumber is an actual spell, not a hex. However, deep slumber has a 1 round casting time. Because of that, it finishes casting after Magda spends another standard action (having chanted also).

Erasmo successfully stabs blue, even though he is sickened, doing damage.

Silver Morningstar Attack (PA, sickened): 1d20 + 10 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 10 - 2 - 2 = 13
Silver Morningstar Attack (PA, sickened): 1d20 + 10 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 10 - 2 - 2 = 9
Silver Morningstar Damage (PA, Silver, sickened): 1d8 + 5 + 4 - 1 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 4 - 1 - 2 = 8

Marcus tries to take advantage of Magda's influence but it is not enough.

Yaziyah angles her long-handled hammer over Marcus's right shoulder, thrusting at the wererat menacing both the mercenary and Erasmo, then stumbles back a step as the foul concoction hits her. "Pfah!"

Attack orange, sickened, NL: 1d20 + 9 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (9) + 9 - 2 - 4 = 12 Damage: 1d12 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

The blind wererat attacked by Erasmo steps away, drawing another one of the foul flasks, and this time throwing it at Erasmo.

Wererat 2 (blue) 5' steps back and draws another flask, throwing it again at Yazi.

ranged touch, dazzled, opponent has cover: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (15) + 5 - 1 = 19
total concealment, high always good for Players: 1d100 ⇒ 41
miss, 1d8, clockwise starting from up: 1d8 ⇒ 1
Lands in Marcus' square

Yazi is sickened for 2 more rounds, and Marcus and Erasmo for 1 round more each. Green wererat is also sickened for one round.

The other wererats step forward and swing, trying to feint again.

Unluckily, every single wererat and Girrigz couldn't find their footing, and all attacks miss. lulz

Despite All My Rage...- Round 4/5 Vera/Magda/Girrigz/Erasmo/Marcus/Yazi/Otyugh

Everyone is up! As a reminder @Magda, you have to position the deep slumber *now* after taking another standard action. Gonna re-roll the saves since I don't know who the new targets are.

Magda's chanting gives way to the sprinkles of the dust of late nights and warm drink falling around the clustered wererats. And a bit at the end about Wonderous Walls of Walling.

finsihed, and redrew. Plus maintaining Marcus's fortune

Erasmo are you able to get behind the chokepoint? If not then I'll come out and start wrecking some havoc with you.

Marcus sees the flash of magic coming. The time for offense has come, and he carves a destructive path through the enemy!

Overrun all of them except Girrigz. Targeting in this order: green, blue, red, purple, pink. Using my last 5 feet of movement to end in a flanking position with Erasmo on Girrigz. Drew my path on the map with a red arrow.

Overrun (sickened): 1d20 + 17 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 17 - 2 = 32
Overrun (sickened): 1d20 + 17 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 17 - 2 = 23

Damage (sickened): 1d8 + 14 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 14 - 2 = 18

With Marcus flanking the rat boss, Erasmo tries to feint and then stab with his shortsword.

Feint: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

Attack (shortsword), flanking, sickened: 1d20 + 11 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 11 + 2 - 2 = 15
Damage, sneak attack: 1d4 + 4 + 3d6 ⇒ (4) + 4 + (6, 3, 3) = 20

Resolving Deep Slumber

Which first?: 1d5 ⇒ 3 Red
which next?: 1d4 ⇒ 1 Blue
which last?: 1d3 ⇒ 3 Pink

Will Save Red: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Will Save Blue: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Will Save Pink: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

Three of the wererats fall unconscious.

Resolving Overruns

Green and Purple are overrun, and damaged (though it looks to be less than Marcus would hope.

Two of the wererat rogues are knocked to the ground by Marcus, who maneuvers to avoid the sleeping ones. They are damaged slightly by his feet.

After DR 6 damage each to Green and Purple.

Yaziyah pokes at one of the wererats that Marcus had swept off their feet. "Stay down, if you know what's good for you. You can still surrender and we can talk about all this."

Attack green, sickened, non-lethal: 1d20 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (4) + 7 - 4 = 7 Damage, non-lethal: 1d12 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Vera unleashes a magic missile spell at Girrigz.

CL 5 MM.

magic missile: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 1, 3) + 3 = 8

As Marcus moves, he opens himself to an attack from Girrigz, even though the overrun surprisingly fails. The wererat is strong, and tough seeming, and his stance is light and extremely well balanced. He moves to stab at Marcus after the big man moves to get into flanking position.

Part of the movement provoked because Marcus wanted to set up the flank.

Girrigz, dazzled: 1d20 + 15 - 1 ⇒ (2) + 15 - 1 = 16
Girrigz Rapier Damage: 1d6 + 4 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 8 = 14

The two conscious wererats kip themselves up surprisingly quickly. So quickly that they don't open themselves to an attack.

Doesn't provoke.

They don't look too happy about the situation, but one steps adjacent to Erasmo to try and take the halfling down. The other attacks Marcus at Girrigz's direction.

purple feint Marcus (DC 16): 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 4 - 2 = 9
purple attack Marcus: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
purple damage on Marcus, sickened, SA: 1d6 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) + 3 + (3, 1) = 9

green attack Erasmo, flanking, dazzled: 1d20 + 5 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (8) + 5 + 2 - 1 = 14
green damage on Erasmo, SA: 1d6 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + 3 + (5, 3) = 15
green bite Erasmo, flank, dazzled: 1d20 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (16) + 2 - 1 = 17
green bite damage Erasmo: 1d4 ⇒ 3

Neither attack hits, but Girrgiz sees that he's flanked, and tries to viciously cut down Erasmo.

Girrigz, flank, dazzled: 1d20 + 15 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (4) + 15 + 2 - 1 = 20
Girrigz Rapier Damage: 1d6 + 4 + 8 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 8 + 8 = 21

Girrigz Bite, flank, dazzled: 1d20 + 9 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (7) + 9 + 2 - 1 = 17
girrigz bite: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Each blow glances off of Eramso's armor, as the magical enhancements keep the halfling from getting badly skewered. Girrigz seems composed, and calm, however, readying himself for whatever attack may come next.

lol more bad rolls.

Despite All My Rage...- Round 5/6 Vera/Magda/Girrigz/Erasmo/Marcus/Yazi/Otyugh

Everyone is up!

With luck on his side for now, Erasmo thanks the Lady before trying to skewer the rat boss.

Attack (shortsword), flanking: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 11 + 2 = 33
Damage, SA: 1d4 + 4 + 3d6 ⇒ (3) + 4 + (6, 3, 4) = 20

Confirm?: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 11 + 2 = 23
Crit Damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

On a hit, Erasmo will give Girrigz -2 on his attacks (-4 against Erasmo) for 1 round, due to debilitating injury.

blur, high always good for players: 1d100 ⇒ 86

opportune parry and riposte: 1d20 + 15 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (20) + 15 + 2 - 1 = 36

Girrigz deflects Erasmo’s masterful stroke with his blade, and stabs out with his own attack in retaliation.

Immediate action attack: 1d20 + 15 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (8) + 15 + 2 - 1 = 24
Girrigz Rapier Damage: 1d6 + 4 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 8 = 16

Bastard lmao. Gonna wait to see if I have fortune still before deciding on course of action.

Yaziyah shifts slightly left to cover more of the fracas with the long reach of her polearm before making another attempt to smack the wererat to her left. "I told you. To stay. DOWN."

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23 Damage: 1d12 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
