Wrath of the Righteous for Paladins (Inactive)

Game Master trawets71

I'm assuming that since the thing charged it's on the other side of the doorway.

Not sure of what to do, Ian calls on his power of Faith again, illuminating the whole area. Asking "What is that thing? " as he takes a step back, making room for Donnen to move back if he desires.

5 ft. step PoF @ + 1: 1st 0f 10 rds. Power of Faith: This causes a nimbus of light to emanate from the warrior of the holy light in a 30-foot radius. All allies in this area (including the warrior of the holy light) receive a +1 morale bonus to AC and on attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws against fear as long as they remain in the area of light. This power lasts for 1 minute.

Dwarven"I can't get a clear shot at it. Everyone, back up and make it comes to us through the doorway! We can then surround it and cut it down." Dadna called out in dwarven. She knew that at least two of the group would understand her and they were the ones who operated the front line. That, and she did not want to speak in a language that the creature might understand.

Ardriel didn't know what Dadna had called out, but he knew he couldn't shoot it from where he was. "I can't get a shot at him - can we clear some space?"

Delay, for now.

Donnen attempts to bull rush the creature back inside the room. He will attempt to move with the creature, if he succeeds.

Torag! - he yells.

CMB: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 1 = 26 PoF

GM: does the damage before goes through my DR (adamantine)?

The attempt above provokes an AoO; Donnen's AC at the moment is 24 + 1 (PoF) = 25. I put an arrow on the map, and I hope to keep moving with the creature as far as my roll possibly allow us to (one square if I beat his CMD-2 due to his charge, two squares if I beat his CMD+3), as to open space for my allies to come in the room.

Seeing the beast in the doorway, Donnen pushes it back to where it started dodging it's antlers in the process.

AoO: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20 Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Damage does not overcome Dr/Adamantine so take 2 off.

Hit: 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 2 + 1 = 19
Cold Iron Damage: 1d10 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 10 + 2 = 15

"Well done!" Dadna exclaimed as she followed up his charge with an attack of her own. It was an instant relief to have enough space to actually swing her weapon, so she did so with the utmost haste, before the opportunity could be lost.

Dadna moves in and swings at the creature and hits it but doesn't do the amount of damage she thought she should.

"Well done, Donnen!"
Leothar moves up beside his fellow dwarf and strikes at the monstrosity with Radiance.

Attack, PA, PoF: 1d20 + 9 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 9 - 2 + 1 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 4 + 1 = 11

I am assuming that the Power of Faith aura is a spread and can affect Leothar where he is; -1 to hit and damage if not.

With Donnen’s charge forward, forcing the demon back, Ardriel moves to where he could see the creature. Deciding that it’s appearance warranted some holy power, he called out, ”Yuelral grant me the power to destroy this monster!” He then fired an arrow.

Move 15’ to get LOS. On mobile, so I need someone to move me. Swift action to smite evil on the demon. Attack.

Attack, PBS, Smite, PoF, in melee: 1d20 + 8 + 1 + 2 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 1 + 2 + 1 - 4 = 11
Damage, PBS, Smite, PoF: 1d8 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 + 1 + 4 + 1 = 15

Leothar move up to the creature and smashes it in the side. Ardriel calls down divine power and shoots at the creature missing it.

Round 1
Fley Up

Sorry - was having problems with internet the last few days...

"Egad! What is that think!". Fley looks at the creature to see if he recognizes it.

Knowledge (planes): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31 +2 vs evil outsider

If not Knowledge (planes), let me know! Can roll any other Knowledge skill.

Using his short, stubby legs, Fley rushes in to the left of Donnen. "Let me help you my friend."

cold iron kukri, attack, PoF: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 1 = 11
damage: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

But he can't seem to hit it, no matter what he does.

Fley rushes into the room but fails to connect with the creature when he attacks. Dislikeing being pushed back the create attacks Donnen but fails to get through his defenses.

Gore: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23 Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Hoof 1: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Hoof 2: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Round 2
Party Up

Fley there is a spoiler for the creature a few posts up. It's Arcana. you made enough to see and depending on what your bonuses are to arcana maybe a few questions too.

Unsure if the others would be able to see him trying to inspire them, Ian moves into the room behind his friends. Pointing his longsword at the creature, trying to demoralize it. "Iomedae has decreed your demise!"

20 ft move, Standard action: Demoralize Opponent
intimidate: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25+2 if evil
PoF @ + 1: 2nd 0f 10 rds. Power of Faith: This causes a nimbus of light to emanate from the warrior of the holy light in a 30-foot radius. All allies in this area (including the warrior of the holy light) receive a +1 morale bonus to AC and on attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws against fear as long as they remain in the area of light. This power lasts for 1 minute.

Definitely missed that! +6 to Arcana. If I keep the roll: 19+6=25. Would like to know any resistances or immunities or defenses.

Fley recalls it's a beast known as a peryton. "Watch out! I know a bit about this creature. It's a mismash of various animals. Probably a wizard's experiment gone wrong."

Realizing his dagger may not do much, Fley tries to distract the beast.

Aid another, Donnen: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 7 + 1 = 27

Donnen gains a +2 bonus on his next attack.

Leothar strikes again with Radiance, though it is not a very accurate swing.

I am not sure if Leothar can 5' step north or if there is clutter there preventing it. If he can, then next round he'll look to get a flank on the monster.

Attack, PA, Power of Faith: 1d20 + 9 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 9 - 2 + 1 = 14
Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 4 + 1 = 10

Fley recalls they are resistant to any weapon that is not magic. Leothar steps forward and misses the creature.

Round 2
Donnen, Ardriel and Dadna Up

Ardriel again fires an arrow at the beast, Yuelral's divine might flowing through him.

Attack, PBS, PoF, Smite, firing into melee: 1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (20) + 8 + 1 + 1 + 2 - 4 = 28
Damage, PBS, PoF, Smite: 1d8 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 1 + 1 + 4 = 11

EDIT

Confirm?: 1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 1 + 1 + 2 - 4 = 18
Critical Damage: 2d8 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 8 ⇒ (1, 1) + 2 + 2 + 2 + 8 = 16

Donnen swings his waraxe against the creature, with the help of Fley, but unfortunately his attack comes out wide. A loud grunt can be heard underneath the helmet.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 8 - 2 + 1 + 2 = 11 PA, PoF, Fley
Damage: 1d10 + 3 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 4 + 1 = 14

Good shot, Ardriel! - he speaks, finding comfort on the skill of the elf bowyer.

Hit: 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 7 + 2 + 1 = 23
Cold Iron Damage: 1d10 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 10 + 2 = 17

Dadna maneuvered herself into position so that there wouldn't be anyone in the way, and then swung her weapon overhead. The chain went behind her, up and over, and then down onto the creature's shoulder. She doubted that it would bring it down, but at the very least each bit of damage added up.

Ardriel lines the creature up as Donnen attacks it and puts an arrow through it's head and it falls to the ground as Dadna thumps it. The party sees nothing but the dead bodies in the room.

Fley checks the door for traps and opens it. Bookshelves line the walls of this small library. Many of the tomes have been torn to shreds, and smoldering piles of ashes fill the room with an acrid stench. One small stack of books on a circular table seem to have escaped destruction.

In the room is a goat-headed humanoid, covered in a mangy gray hide that only partly covers its gaunt but muscled frame.

Perception Fley: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 2 = 14

Init Ardriel: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Init Donnen: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18

Init Enemy: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Round 1
Party Up

How many rounds did we use moving from the last room to this one? I'll remove one round, let me know if it's more.

Moving quickly from the dead creature and the body strewn room, Ian waits as Fley opens the next door. Seeing the creature standing in the room, Ian, unable to resist the desire to destroy it, hustles in hugging the wall. Ian, still aglow with the Power of Faith, attacks the beast with his cold iron longsword.

AC 23, 20 ft move, attack: MW cold iron longsword PA, PoF, CC, WF
attack: 1d20 + 11 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 11 - 2 = 20 for damage: 1d8 + 3 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 4 + 1 = 13
PoF @ + 1: 4rth 0f 10 rds. Power of Faith: This causes a nimbus of light to emanate from the warrior of the holy light in a 30-foot radius. All allies in this area (including the warrior of the holy light) receive a +1 morale bonus to AC and on attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws against fear as long as they remain in the area of light. This power lasts for 1 minute.

Hit: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 7 + 1 = 28
Cold Iron Damage: 1d10 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 10 + 1 = 15

Confirm?: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Dadna didn't waste any time. She saw a demon? She charged. Especially before the room got so crowded that attacking it would become a danger to her comrades.

Ian and Dadna enter the room wounding the demon gravely.

Knowledge (Planes): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25 Would like to know any resistances/immunities/defenses.

"A demon - schir demon I believe it's called.". Fley calls out to it in Abyssal. "My fair lad, what are you doing here? You know, you don't belong here. We're going to destroy you and everything you stand for."

Fley hobbles in to the room and pulls out his kukri. He's hoping to distract it so that Ian can get in there again.

Aid another, kukri, PoF: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 7 + 1 = 15

Ian gains +2 to attack it next round.

Fley recalls some about this type of demon: DR 5/cold iron or good; Immune disease, electricity, poison; Resist acid 10, cold 10, fire 10; SR 15

I've got to study my demons more. I don't know anything about them, really. Glad we have Fley and Ardriel.
Leothar moves into the room and swings Radiance at the Schir demon.
Radiance is magic and cold iron.

Attack, PA, PoF: 1d20 + 9 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 9 - 2 + 1 = 25
Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 4 + 1 = 11

Donnen moves to one of the corners, and on the very last part of his movement he tries to avoid provoking an attack of opportunity.

Acrobatics: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (4) - 2 = 2 Trying to tumble... Lol...

When he finally gets there, he swings at the outsider.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 8 - 2 + 1 = 19 PA, PoF
Damage: 1d10 + 3 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 4 + 1 = 14

Ardriel knows nothing about demons.

Faced with another demon, Ardriel fired an arrow at the new goat-headed demon.

Attack, PBS, PoF, firing into melee: 1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 1 + 1 - 4 = 7

Leothar moves in and hammers the demon and it falls to the ground. Donnen then makes sure it never gets up again.

There are seven books that seem to be saved stacked up here. They are history, geography, and tactics texts. One seems to be about fighting techniques.

As you move to the aerie Fley finds no traps on the door and opens it.

Several stacked horizontal shelves hold a number of small, straw-lined bird cages. A stack of parchment, three quills, a pot of ink, and a pile of tiny cylindrical objects cover a nearby table, while a small wooden door is in one corner of the room.

In the room are four giant demonic flys, like the one you fought before.

Perception Fley: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 2 = 27

Init Ardriel: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Init Donnen: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
Init Fley: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Init Ian: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (6) + 0 = 6

Init Dadna: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
Init Enemy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

Round 1
Leothar and Dadna up

Oh no, insects! The bane of the paladin party!

Leothar will move through the door and into the corner of the room so as to not block his allies.

If the flies are flat-footed they shouldn't get AOOs on him for this movement, but they might have Combat Reflexes.

Then he will strike at one of the demonic flies.
"Begone, vermin!"
Attack, PA: 1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 9 - 2 = 13
Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 4 = 14

LOL Donnen!

As a reminder if we took one round to search the previous room, then came here, Ian's Power of Faith is still active.

PoF @ + 1: 6rth 0f 10 rds. Power of Faith: This causes a nimbus of light to emanate from the warrior of the holy light in a 30-foot radius. All allies in this area (including the warrior of the holy light) receive a +1 morale bonus to AC and on attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws against fear as long as they remain in the area of light. This power lasts for 1 minute.

Hit through cover v FF: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 1 = 22
Cold Iron Damage: 1d10 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 10 + 1 = 19

For a moment Dadna was ready to run to the front lines, but she stopped herself. In a room this small, all it would mean was that her companions would be stuck behind her, and as they did not have the reach that they did, it would be to their detriment. Instead she waited until Leothar attacked and then swung over his head, using her people's short height to their advantage.

Leothar moves in and hammers the fly very hard, though it still stands.

Dadna needs to move into the room to attack.

Botting Dadna's move into the room
Dadna moves into the room finishing off the fly Leothar had wounded. Two of the flies spit acid at Leothar and Dadna while the center one attempts to concentrate on something prompting an attack from Dadna, leaving the fly (red) barely standing.

Acid Damage Leothar: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 2) = 3 1d4: 1d4 ⇒ 3
Acid Damage Dadna: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 4) = 6 1d4: 1d4 ⇒ 1
Dadna AoO: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 1 = 26 Damage: 1d10 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 1 = 18

Round 1
Party Up

Leothar moves up and strikes at the wounded bug in the center, trying to finish it.

Attack, PoF, PA: 1d20 + 9 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 9 + 1 - 2 = 24
Damage, PoF, PA: 1d8 + 4 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 1 + 4 = 16

Following Leothar and Danda in the room Ian quickly steps out of the way, making sure Donnen has plenty of room to swing his dangerous axe.

20 ft move, can't get an attack in, so will stay out of the way.
PoF @ + 1: 7rth 0f 10 rds. Power of Faith: This causes a nimbus of light to emanate from the warrior of the holy light in a 30-foot radius. All allies in this area (including the warrior of the holy light) receive a +1 morale bonus to AC and on attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws against fear as long as they remain in the area of light. This power lasts for 1 minute.

With how crowded everything is in there, Ardriel decides to cover the hallway just in case something comes out to surprise them.

Delay for now - With soft cover and my penalties for firing into melee, I don't think I can contribute to this fight.

Leothar drops another fly leaving two left in the room.

"More evil flies? Disgusting beasts!"

Fley stumbles in to the room and slashes out at the green one.

kukri, PoF: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 1 = 17 +2 vs evil outsiders
damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1 +2 vs evil outsiders

Donnen moves in to an open space and attacks one of the flies.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 8 - 2 + 1 = 12 PA, PoF
Damage: 1d10 + 3 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 4 + 1 = 13

His attack goes wide, though.

Finally back! It seems I had extra issues this week. Glad I was able to see the tips to clear the cookies, and insisted doing it more than once and refreshing. My apologies for the delay, team.

Fley stabs the fly causing a small amount of ichor to ooze out. Donnen moves in but misses his fly. Donnen's swing gets in Dadna's way and she isn't effective in her attack. The fley in front of Donnen spits acid again getting it on Donnen and Dadna. The other fly bites Leothar.

Dadna Bot PA: 1d20 + 9 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 1 - 2 = 12 damage: 1d10 + 4 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 6 = 19

Acid Damage DC 15 Reflex for half: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 6) = 7 1d4 ⇒ 4

Fly Leothar: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23 Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Round 2
Party Up

Smiling as Donnen move into the room, Ian's countenance drops a little as the dwarves brutal blade misses it's mark and Leothar appears to be injured. Lifting his sword he tries to inspire the team. "Hang in there chief, come on Dwarves we've killed bugs before!"

Full round action: Iomedae's Inspiring Sword: While wielding a longsword, you can perform an impressive display of prowess as a full-round action. All allies within 30 feet who can see your display gain a +2 sacred bonus on attack rolls, saving throws, and skill checks for 1 round

This power lasts for 1 minute.

Fley laughs as his hit pierces the fly. "Let's try that again! Die vermin"

cold iron kukri, IIS, PoF: 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 2 + 1 = 14 +2 vs evil outsider
damage: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 +2 vs evil outsider

Leothar strikes at the northernmost fly, and then calls on the power of Torag to heal his wounds.
Attack, PA, PoF, IS, Buckler: 1d20 + 9 - 2 + 1 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (16) + 9 - 2 + 1 + 2 - 1 = 25
Damage: 1d8 + 5 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 6 + 1 = 15

LoH 2 of 3: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 1) = 6

AC 21 (Power of Faith canceling loss of buckler), and HP 34/40.

Fley misses the fly this time. Leothar smashes the fly in the face but it still is in the fight.

Round 2
Donnen, Dadna and Ardriel up

Dadna not a Bot PA: 1d20 + 9 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 9 + 1 - 2 = 19
Cold iron damage: 1d10 + 4 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 6 = 15

”This filth should not exist.” Dadna said to herself as she adjusted her grip and swung her weapon again, this time with much more accuracy.

Donnen insists and attacks again.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 8 - 2 + 1 = 9 PA, PoF
Damage: 1d10 + 3 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 4 + 1 = 10

But his attack goes wide, again.

Ugh! It had to be insects! - he yells.

Ardriel continues to guard the groups back while the flies attack. WHile on fly barely misses Donnen the other takes a big bit out of Leothar.

Black: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24 Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Green: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23 Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Black Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23 Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Round 3
Party Up

Aghast that the evil fly has bitten Leothar again, but unable to move forward to strike without placing himself between the flies; Ian keeps his sword elevated, the Power of Faith illuminating the room. "Dadna is right! This Filth should not exist!"

Full round action: Iomedae's Inspiring Sword: All allies within 30 feet who can see your display gain a +2 sacred bonus on attack rolls, saving throws, and skill checks
