Dungeon Master S's "The Extinction Curse"

Game Master Chris Marsh

Goliath beelines for the gargoyle as he leaps over Tiny to get to it. Charlie notches a couple of arrows and try to take out the stone wings.

Goliath Jaws; Inspire: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 9 + 1 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 1 = 9
Hunter's Edge Precision Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 8

+1 Longbow; Inspire; Volley: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 11 + 1 - 2 = 20

Hunter's Edge Precision Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 1

+1 Longbow; Inspire; Volley: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 - 5 ⇒ (3) + 11 + 1 - 2 - 5 = 8
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 8

◆ Command Goliath
◆ Goliath Stride
◆ Goliath Strike
◆ Strike
◆ Strike

Tiny bounds across from Dendillion and claws into the gargoyle.

inspired claw: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 11 + 1 = 30
slashing: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 1 = 6

flurry claw: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 16
slashing: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 1 = 6

Fort DC 20 Stunning fist is at least one deals damage, also 1d4 persistent bleed on a crit

Tiny then whistles for Þóðᛞrekkr who comes in for a bite.

inspired jaws: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 9 + 1 = 20
piercing damage: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 1 = 8

Tiny's set up is perfectly timed. His claws break through the stony hide, and then some! Unfortunately the follow up doesn't do it. FORT: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20 It keeps its head in the game though.

Þóðᛞrekkr's angle isn't right and his teeth simply scrape.

Charlie gets a solid arrow in too, just before Chark's force weapon does the same.

Round 3:
Charlie: Hit
Dendillion: Go
Chark: Hit
Haldan: Go
Hostiles: TBD
Tiny: TBD

Haldan launches a card and then his staff, both telekinetically.

Telekinetic Projectile: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 10 + 1 = 242d6 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (1, 5) + 4 + 1 = 11
Hand of the Apprentice: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 10 + 1 = 311d10 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 1 = 10
Crit deals double damage plus Fort save (DC20) or Stunned 1.

Haldan's aim is perfect. His barrage strikes true! The gargoyle shatters into a thousand pieces!

For felling the twin gargoyle guardians of the Aeon Tower, each hero earns 120 XP and Haldan earns a Hero Point.

Charlie slides down to the ground to catch his breath. "How did these creatures make it past these?" He can't imagine what could lie in the rest of the tower that held such powerful protections.

Tiny shrugs at Charlie's question. "Could always be another way in somewhere else."

”Well, we made it past this, let’’s see what exciting challenge awaits us next!”

Unless anyone objects, let’s go in.

Charlie stands up and begins to make his way further into the tower. "No p..p..point in turning back now."

The party eyes the stairs, which lead down to the base of the tower. With mutual nods, they head in.

At about halfway down, the smell of a campfire reaches you. It's also enough to see that there's a fire in the room - as the light of the fire takes over from the natural light outside.

Near the bottom, the scrap of claw against stone makes everyone stop. A sibilant voice from inside calls out,

Charlie looks behind him to see if anyone understands what the creature is saying. "We are from the town. Do you speak common?"

The reply doesn't need translation as the party hears the sounds of heavy clubs being taken up! A few steps down the stairs and you can see a quartet of the same degenerate creatures. One of them is wrangling a brightly colored dinosaur. Each foot is armed with a large, sickle-shaped claw!

Charlie is Scouting
Hostiles: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Charlie: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 1 = 14 (Scout)
Chark: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 10 + 1 = 12 (Search)
Dendillion: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 1 = 19 (Detect Magic)
Haldan: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 7 + 1 = 27 (Seek, Keen Eyes)
Tiny: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 1 = 15 (Search)

Round 1:
Haldan: Go
Dendillion: Go
Hostiles: TBD
Tiny: TBD
Charlie: TBD
Chark: TBD

Haldan replies back in undercommon: "Candygram."

And then takes some energy from Hermann and casts Sudden Bolt on the one directly in front (white).

Sudden Bolt DC20 Reflex: 4d12 ⇒ (6, 5, 4, 11) = 26

Bolts crackling from his eyes, the spell looks potent if it lands well.

Haldan, due to the nature of the stairs, you'll have to move closer to cast the spell, and these things smell really bad. To be close enough to cast, you'd have to be in Tiny's space or closer.

Haldan steps forward to cast the spell.

Best I could do on my iPad. If someone wants to straighten that out o Slides. Otherwise I can do it when I get home.

Action 1: Inspire Courage
Action 2: Inspire Defense
Action 3: Recall Knowledge

Dendillion wastes no time laying out some magical, musical beats that inspire both courage and caution. He applies a musical flourish as the notes ring out.
Lingering Composition vs DC 19: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 21
Inspire Courage will last 3 rounds

He then takes a moment to study the dino, relating what he knows.
Recall Knowledge using Bardic Lore. +7

Haldan steps forward, and into the miasama of stink surrounding the xulgath! FORT: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21. He keeps his lunch down, and replies with a potent spell. REF: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27, but the warrior completely dodges the crack!

Dendillion starts up a song as he studies the Deinonychus. A quick dinosaur with a penchant for moving swiftly and clawing its foes, often faster than people realize...

The xulgaths bark back and forth, this time in a different language. They immediately form a coordinated defense to prevent you from entering the tower. Two on the wings stride closer and hurl javelins at the front line in time with the dinosaur tamer:
Blue v. Haldan: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20 for DMG: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
White v. Haldan: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20 for DMG: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Black v. Goliath: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16 MISS

He then releases the dinosaur to close with the final warrior:
Deinonychus v. Goliath: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11 MISS
Deinonychus v. Goliath: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 MISS

Red club v. Haldan: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14 MISS

ALL characters within 30' must attempt a DC 16 Fortitude save. On a failure, the creature is sickened 1, and on a critical failure, the creature also takes a –5-foot status penalty to its Speeds for 1 round. While within the aura, the creature takes a –2 circumstance penalty to saves to recover from the sickened condition. A creature that succeeds at its save is temporarily immune to all xulgaths’ stenches for 1 minute.

Round 1:
Haldan: Spell
Dendillion: Bard
Hostiles: ATK
Tiny: Go
Charlie: Go
Chark: Go

Fort save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Yeah, no thanks. Hero point
Fort save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Dendillion closes his mouth and does his best to take shallow breaths while downwind of the creature's overpowering stench.

Step back, Haldan! Chark says. You'll get eaten alive up front! This is said with full understanding that the 30 ft range of nearly all spells is a limiting factor.

Then, as the xulgath's approach, the stench hits her full force. DC 16 Fort: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
Chark tries to resist, but bile gets caught in her throat. She retches to try and correct that.

DC 16 Fort: 1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 9 - 2 = 9 Haha, or not.
Most of breakfast comes up as she does. She misses Charlie and Tiny's wolf, but Haldan's pooka is less fortunate. In misery, she wipes her mouth and whispers Sorry... to Hermann.

Weakly, she conjures up a ball of white-yellow flame and hurls it desperately at Red.

produce flame: 1d20 + 9 - 1 ⇒ (19) + 9 - 1 = 27
fire: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (1, 2) + 4 = 7

1 action to retch (unsuccessful), verbal and somatic components for produce flame.

Not a crit by virtue of cover sadly. Chark makes a quick attempt to overcome the stench, but when she can't, she opts to simply immolate the xulgath!

Round 1:
Haldan: Spell
Dendillion: Bard
Hostiles: ATK
Tiny: Go
Charlie: Go
Chark: Hit

fort save: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
doggy save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Tiny barely keeps his lunch while Þóðᛞrekkr is not so lucky as disgusting saliva drips from the canine's mouth.

Tiny slips between foes as he drops into his stance and attacks the red creature from behind.

claw vs red FF: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 11 + 1 = 30
slashing: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 2 + 1 = 10

flurry vs red FF: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 19
slashing: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 1 = 8

Fort 20 stunning fist, + if a crit 1d4 persistent bleed

Tiny can feel the food inching its way back up his throat, but he keeps it down long enough to slash the xuglath across the throat. blood begins to pour forth as the xulgath drops dead from the wound. Sadly Þóðᛞrekk can only wretch.

Round 1:
Haldan: Spell
Dendillion: Bard
Hostiles: ATK
Tiny: Crit kill
Charlie: Go
Chark: Hit

Charlie Fort Save DC 16: 1d209 ⇒ 8
Goliath Fort Save DC 16: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

Finally seeing that it wasn't anyone asking for help Charlie raises his bow as he pushes Goliath into the dinosaur, marking it with his arrow.

Jaws; Inspire: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 9 + 1 = 21
Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 1 = 9
Hunter's Edge Precision Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 5

+1 Longbow: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 - 5 ⇒ (3) + 11 + 1 - 2 - 5 = 8

Speaking now in perfect draconic with a BIG smile on his face.

"Who is Cavnakash and why do you need to keep us out?"

I've got reach spell. I'll step back when I can.

The creatures are shocked at the halfling's words, and immediately stop talking!

Looks like Goliath failed his save, and Charlie rolled a d209. FORT for Charlie: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25

Charlie keeps it together, but Goliath is sickened by the stench. The pair still connect once each to severely wound the dinosaur.

Round 2:
Haldan: Go
Dendillion: Go
Hostiles: TBD
Tiny: TBD
Charlie: TBD
Chark: TBD

Action 1: Inspire Defense
Action 2-3: Telekinetic Projectile

Dendillion keeps the music flowing, the magical sounds manifesting in a renewed defense for the group.

Woven into it is a familiar set of notes that cause a nearby stone to fly at the dino!
Telekinetic Projectile vs Dino: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 10 + 1 = 16
Damage (B): 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (3, 3) + 4 = 10

Dendillion bolsters the party's defenses with a switch to a major scale and a heavier 4/4 rhythm. Unfortunately, the flying bit of stone smash on the wall and not the dinosaur.

Round 2:
Haldan: Go
Dendillion: Miss
Hostiles: TBD
Tiny: TBD
Charlie: TBD
Chark: TBD

Haldan reach out with electricity and then moves back (Shocking Grasp and then move).

Shocking Grasp: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 10 + 1 = 192d12 + 1 ⇒ (5, 7) + 1 = 13

Haldan's grasp is rather shocking, and leaves the xulgath severely injured!

Even though the battle immediately opens with heavy losses, the xulgath warriors neither surrender, nor run for back up. The dinosaur continues to fight Goliath:

Bite v. Goliath: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24 for DMG: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (6, 4) + 3 = 13
Left Claw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21 for DMG: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 and 1d4 Bleed on your turn
Right Claw: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (9) + 0 = 9 MISS

The wounded xulgath presses into Haldan:
Club 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22 for DMG: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Club 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 MISS

The other two close on Tiny, two drawing clubs on the way:
Black Club 1, Flank: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20 for DMG: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Black Club 2, Flank: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19 MISS

Blue Club 1, Flank: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12 MISS
Blue Club 2, Flank: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16 MISS

White Club 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23 for DMG: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
White Club 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 MISS

Round 2:
Haldan: Shock the monkey
Dendillion: Miss
Hostiles: ATK
Tiny: Go
Charlie: Go
Chark: Go

Tiny mostly dodges the many clubs coming his direction before stepping around to a safer place and continuing his assault.

claw: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 11 + 1 = 14
slashing: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 1 = 9

flurry claw: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 19
slashing: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 1 = 7

fort 20 stunning fist.

Tiny then yellows to the wolf ""Spit it out boy!"

Þóðᛞrekkr: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 8 - 2 = 21

Þóðᛞrekkr then growls at the red Xulgath.
intimidate, no language: 1d20 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (20) + 6 - 4 = 22
crit is frightened 2

10ft step, flurry, command(save, demoralize)

Tiny nimbly moves to position. His opening blow misses, but the follow up is solid. FORT: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18 and it sends the xulgath reeling a bit. Þóðᛞrekkr gives a menacing growl just as the xulgath looks at him!

Round 2:
Haldan: Shock the monkey
Dendillion: Miss
Hostiles: ATK
Tiny: Hit
Charlie: Go
Chark: Go

Chark retches again.
DC 16 Fort: 1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 9 - 2 = 16
...I'll take it.

She will then attempt to hurl another yellow-orange ball of flame at Red.
produce flame: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 haha, nat Jeff
fire: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (3, 1) + 4 = 8

1 action to retch (successful), verbal & somatic components for Golarion's worst produce flame.

Goliath barely remains standing but Charlie is unable to do much about his friends immediate condition. "Hang in th.there." He continues to ficus fire on the dinosaur.

Jaws; Inspire: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 9 + 1 = 25
Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 1 = 6
Hunter's Edge Precision Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 5

Claws; Inspire: 1d20 + 9 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 9 - 4 = 10

Goliath Bleed Round 1: 1d4 ⇒ 1
Persistent Flat Check DC 15: 1d20 ⇒ 14

◆ Goliath Strike
◆ Goliath Strike
◆ Strike
◆ Strike

Chark purges herself, but the remnants are still enough to throw off her spell.

Charlie and Goliath, backs to the wall, unleash everything they've got. Goliath's bit snaps the dinosaur's neck. The follow up claws, caked in blood, miss the xulgath next to him.

Charlie's arrows take the xulgath out, ending the direct pressure on Haldan.

Round 3:
Haldan: Go
Dendillion: Go
Hostiles: TBD
Tiny: Hit
Charlie: TBD
Chark: TBD

Action 1: Stride
Action 2: Recall Knowledge
Action 3: Inspire Courage

Dendillion moves up closer to get a better view of the creatures. He tries to remember what stories there might be about these things.
Recall Knowledge (Bardic Lore): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

He then shares what he knows, weaving it into an impromptu song. The music, as always inspires the group.
Cast Inspire Courage. +1 to hit and damage rolls

Dendillion moves into position as he thinks on the xulgath's. Other than their intensely pungeunt odor, there isn't much remarkable about them. They're not known for intelligence, and they are largely dim - making them easy to manipulate through means both mundane and magical.

Round 3:
Haldan: Go
Dendillion: Bard!
Hostiles: TBD
Tiny: Hit
Charlie: TBD
Chark: TBD

Haldan concentrates to create a reach version of Shocking Grasp on Blue.

SG: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 10 + 1 = 292d12 + 1 ⇒ (10, 6) + 1 = 17

I moved Haldan to melee

Haldan steps up with his old joy-buzzer schtick and grabs hold of the xulgath's throat! the electricity immediately overpowers him and the creature drops dead, smoking slightly and doing nothing for the odor.

the two remaining foes try to close in on Tiny and end at least one intruder:
Black Club 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13 MISS
Club 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 MISS
Club 3: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (19) - 1 = 18 MISS
White Club 1: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 MISS
Club 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24 fo rDouble of: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Round 3:
Haldan: Crit kill
Dendillion: Bard!
Hostiles: ATK
Tiny: Go
Charlie: Go
Chark: Go

Chatk moves up the steep steps, and then closes in to give Tiny some distraction aid.

Stride x3.

Chark closes, prepping for the next exchange!

Round 3:
Haldan: Crit kill
Dendillion: Bard!
Hostiles: ATK
Tiny: Go
Charlie: Go
Chark: Move

Tiny appreciates the company as he lashes out against white with a pair of claws.

claw vs W FF: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 11 + 1 = 15
slashing d: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 1 = 5

claw vs W FF: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 23
slashing d: 1d8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 1 = 5
fort 20 stunning fist

Tiny then draws the cook's shield from before and raises it.

AC 24

Charlie holds a hand out as he slips into the room. "Stay there Goliath!" He sweeps the corners of the room looking for anything else.

Goliath Bleed Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1
Persistent Flat Check: 1d20 ⇒ 4

◆ Stride
◆ Stride
◆ Hunt Prey (White)

With the distraction provided by flanking, Tiny strikes the xulgath twice! FORT: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25 and FORT: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16. The wounds are solid, though its concentration isn't hindered by the first blow, but the second rings his bell.

Round 3:
Haldan: Go
Dendillion: Go
Hostiles: TBD
Tiny: TBD
Charlie: TBD
Chark: TBD

Action 1: Inspire Courage
Action 2-3: Telekinetic Projectile

Dendillion continues his inspirational tune, weaving in notes that bear enough magic to fling a nearby stone at the nearest xulgath!
Telekinetic Projectile vs Black: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 10 + 1 = 21
Damage (B): 2d4 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (3, 1) + 4 + 1 = 9

Dendillion's inspiration includes a staccato note when the ancient stone slams into the xulgath's face, bloodying him a bit more

Round 3:
Haldan: Go
Dendillion: Bard!
Hostiles: TBD
Tiny: TBD
Charlie: TBD
Chark: TBD

Haldan steals some energy from Hermann and moves forward to strike (black) with one more go at the joy buzzer.

Shocking Grasp: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 10 + 1 = 152d12 + 1 ⇒ (1, 6) + 1 = 8

"These things seem incredibly hard to kill. I have only a couple of spells left and Hermann seems exhausted."

"Don't speak for me, you ponce. But yeah, he's not wrong. This time."

Haldan's reach is slightly off target this time. While dimwitted, the xulgath's understand pack hunting. One slides to flank Tiny, then both open up:

White Club 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13 MISS
White Club 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16 MISS
Black Club 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19 MISS
Black Club 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22 for DMG: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Round 3:
Haldan: Miss
Dendillion: Bard!
Hostiles: ATK
Tiny: Go
Charlie: Go
Chark: Go

Charlie fires off a bunch of arrows into the white xulgath, trying to drop it quickly. "Smells like a sewer."

+1 Longbow; Inspire: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 11 + 1 = 26
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Hunter's Edge Precision Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 5

+1 Longbow; Inspire: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 10 ⇒ (5) + 11 + 1 - 10 = 7
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Goliath Bleed Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2
Persistent Flat Check: 1d20 ⇒ 4

Goliath slumps down as his wounds was worse than Charlie thought. Underneath that mass of fur he continued to bleed out. Dying 2 Charlie looks back. "Goliath ne..needs help."

◆ Strike

Charlie tries to focus his attention on ending the threat so he can get to his poor, dying, circus bear. His first 2 arrows drop the xulgath, though his third misses the final target.
