"RRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWRRRRRRR!!" the enraged Shoanti screams. He chases down the retreating villain, his anger and rage powering his legs as he follows. With a leap, almost as if he were in a computer simulation of life, where all badass scenes are in slow motion, he jumps and fliiiiiieeees through the air and brings his earthbreaker down on the skull of Vernisant!

"They always want to fight to the death. I don't get it. If I'm every that badly beaten and outnumbered..." Juniper muses to herself, then runs after her friends.

The immediate threats ended, you look around and see the place in tatters, but the civilians cleared out, and the Lions Blades now fully in control of the scene. One of the Blades casually passes a note to you, informing you that Lady Gloriana Morilla will meet you at Muesello's lodge to properly express her gratitude.

The moment the smouldering body of the lion hit the floor Petra turns and sprints across the courtyard and scoops up the fascinated Emberkin in her arms.
”Hey, hey. You okay Flufflebutt?”
Metting with Glorianna, she addresses you, "Thank you for your assistance in this matter. I know that there will be much going on in Taldor in the next few months considering the results of these events. With your help and the Lions Blades interference in this matter, I am sure that Princess Eutropia can claim the crown."This scenario is the "prequel" to War for the Crown AP and that storyline continues there.
She shuffle some papers before continuing, "It is unfortunate that commoner Kalbio who was to ascend was slain. Some Sovereign Court members have retrieved his body, but his parents went into considerable debt preparing for this event and there is no one to pay for the funeral. I fear Kalbio of Breezy Creek will only be the first of many casualties in these events, however."
Before the Pathfinder Society’s Master of Swords, Marcos Farabellus, a large map of northern Avistan lies spread across the table. A notched and battered longsword
weighs the map down on one side, preventing it from furling closed, while its sheathe does the same on the other side. Farabellus has placed all manner of objects upon the map, each indicating a different landmark or Pathfinder Society resource. Aram Zey, the Master of Spells, frowns as Farabellus places another piece down upon the map.Farabellus and Zey on Slide 3
“This is the lost Sky Citadel Jormurdun, in the very northwestern extreme of what is now the Worldwound,” Farabellus explains, pointing towards a dwarven-minted gold coin, “And this red stone is Nerosyan, Mendev’s capitol city. As you can see, any expedition launched from Nerosyan has to cross the entire demon-infested Worldwound to reach the Sky Citadel. With the recent failure of the wardstones and increased demonic attacks along the border, such a journey would be suicide. It makes more strategic sense to enter the Worldwound from the west—from the Tusk Mountains, home of the Mammoth Lords. It’s a shorter distance and there’d be a whole lot fewer demon armies along the way.”
“Though that may be true, we have no allies or holdings in the Realm of the Mammoth Lords,” Aram Zey interrupts, pushing over a miniature marble elephant, much to Farabellus’ clear annoyance. “However, though we do not intend to forsake our
allies in Mendev, the Master of Swords makes a valid point. The
Decemvirate has therefore authorized a small reconnaissance mission to the Realm of the Mammoth Lords. We are sending you to scout along the eastern border of the Worldwound, find and secure a suitable location that we could use as a staging ground for our expedition, and ensure the cooperation of the local barbarian tribes.”

While Emberkin stands on Farabellus' desk looking the map over with intense concentration Petra leans nonchalantly against a wall. "So why do we need to get to the sky city? Is it that there's something there or is it under attack?"
Providing this background with a check because it was the big plot piece of season five and general knowlege
Jormurdun is one of the ten Sky Citadels- its location was discovered by the Pathfinder Society recently at the end of season 4. Since then, all of the Society's resources have been bent towards preparing to mount an expedition to Jormurdun to explore the ruins because it lies within the Worldwound. This is the entire meta-plot of Season 5- most scenarios contribute to this goal in one way or another

Ajax listens to the briefing, but keeps silent as he searches the reactions of Marcos Farabellus and Aram Zey for any deception. Take 10 on Sense Motive = 27. Add +4 for humans and half-humans
Ajax then invokes his wayfinder as he tries to recall the geography of the region Take 10 on K. Geo = 25. Want to know what type of terrain we'll encounter and creatures native to the area..
The Realm of the Mammoth Lords is a savage and untamed wilderness, inhabited by great beasts such as mammoths, herds of bison and aurochs, and the tribes of nomadic Kellid barbarians that hunt them.
Despite its remoteness, the Realm of the Mammoth Lords sees many visitors. Raiding orcs from Belkzen to the south, servants of Irrisen’s Witch Queen seeking to expand their borders from the west, traders from Tian Xia brave enough to cross the Crown of the World from the north, and—most dangerous of all—invading demonic forces from the Worldwound to the east. As most of the land’s visitors are hostile, the indigenous Kellids
Tolguth is a surprisingly warm location, warmed by chains of hot springs and volcanic vents that run along deep glacier-carved valleys. Predatory creatures, including dinosaurs said to have crawled up from poorly understood underground caverns, overrun the jungles surrounding Tolguth. Few Kellids travel much farther to the east due to their mammoths’ aversion to the Worldwound. The resulting no-man’s land is called hrungara—the point beyond which the mammoths do not willingly go.
Edit: Oops, no, there is a result for 30 there was a page in between
Knowledge Geography or Local DC 30:
Deep beneath Tolguth and the Tusk Mountains lies a primordial world forgotten by time. Known as Deep Tolguth, the vast caverns feature their own subterranean sun and are home to massive dinosaurs and other strange and mighty beasts.
You detect no subterfuge from the Pathfinder society leaders/
Zey nods to Juniper adding, “I suggest that you visit Tolguth first. If you can befriend the barbarians there, they should be able to tell you of a few possible locations. I intend to send a number of gifts and trade goods with you to smooth negotiations. Of course, this does require that one of you can at least understand Hallit.”
Any more questions for Aram/Marcos go ahead, otherwise we will move forward.
Zey nods at you, “I’ll teleport us to a spot just outside of the barbarian
settlement of Tolguth. Not too close though—these are people easily
startled by magic. Once you find a suitable location, simply snap this
ceramic disc,” he instructs, placing a palm-sized, intricately carved
disk on the table. “It will form a temporary beacon that I can
use to create a waypoint for the Hao Jin Tapestry. With the
waypoint, we can easily move agents and supplies to the new base camp, but it takes time to set up; don’t think of this as an emergency evacuation device.”
"If you cannot speak Hallit, I have one potion of tongues I can offer, but you'll likely want to obtain more than that-- meet me back here tomorrow morning after you've gathered supplies and I'll send you off."
How are you taking 10 Ajax? Knowledge:1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32
If Ajax shares his knowledge with the group Emberkin will nod along with a slight expression of satisfaction before adding aloud
"Deep beneath Tolguth and the Tusk Mountains lies a primordial world forgotten by time. Known as Deep Tolguth, the vast caverns feature their own subterranean sun and are home to massive dinosaurs and other strange and mighty beasts."
On the topic of languages, "My telepathy can translate for us so your wand may not be necessary Miss Berrythwaite. However constant translating may hamper diplomatic efforts so additional access to the Tongues spell will definitely be helpful."

I will buy a scroll of tongues for myself, but I'll ask Petra to cast it for me. That will save you a spell slot for my casting. (I could cast it myself, but I have a 25% spell failure chance.)
"Excellent idea, Emberkin!"[b] She turns to Petra to add, [b]"Look how his nose twitches when he speaks out loud. He's so CUTE!" Then to the group at large, "Let's contact the Grand Lodge before we go, and requisition some scrolls of the spell."
Aram Zey leaves the you in a clearing three miles south of Tolguth with directions to the Kellid settlement. The lands surrounding Tolguth are warm and support vast stands of great tropical plants such as cycads, ferns, and rhododendrons, which form a dense jungle at the bottom of a deep glacier-carved valley. The clearing features a large, round boulder resting in the middle of bubbling hot spring—a relatively good landmark for Aram Zey’s teleport spells.
As you begin moving towards Tolguth. . .
Despite the incessant heat, humidity, and buzzing of insects, navigating the jungles surrounding Tolguth is relatively easy thanks to the trampled foliage, fallen trees, and footprint scarred game trails that cut through the dense plant growth. A gray, cloudless sky peers through the lush canopy as a stark reminder of the northern latitude.
You see three Vrocks and a dinosaur in the clearing in front of you fighting!
Perception DC 10:
You see some spears sticking out of the Dinosaur's hide.
Knowledge Local DC 15 + above Perception check:
You identify these as spears of the Tolguth warriors, a Kellid tribe in the area.
DC 15 after making the Knowledge check:
Looking more closely for the, you can make out a group of Tolguth warriors on the over side of the clearing!
DC 20 Sense Motive:
You can tell the Tolguth Kellids are watching both YOU and the battle between the dinosaur and the demons.
DC 19 Knowledge Nature:
the Dinosaur is a Tyrannosaurus, a fearsome predator with a powerful bite, grab, and swallow whole
Knowledge Planes DC 19:
The Demons are Vrocks, flying vulture like demons. One question at 19, two and 24, three at 29, ect
Indeed, but be careful Juniper. That is a Tyrannosaurus. A fierce creature. I may be able to tame it for a moment if we get closer. Grel isn't very well prepared but has enough spell power to get himself through this.

Question: Vrock Spells
Ajax nods at Grel, "Yes, we must kill those accursed outsider. And I believe the natives are watching us, so let's put on a good show."
Ajax uses the last charge in his old gravity bow wand.
Round 1
The Vrocks panic as they watch the T Rex eat their brethren- it appears that they had been more toying with the dinosaur than attacking it in earnest, but now they each activate their mirror image spell like ability.
Cannot fail the concentration check for casting defensively Mirror Images Blue Vrock:1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 Mirror Images Red Vrock:1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Free action at the start of my turn to assign my +1 from my shield to Grel.
Juniper re-sheathes her wand, takes up her defensive posture, and steps in front of Grel. "Stay behind me, Grel. We can hit them from range."
Move to stow wand. Standard for total defense.
All the usual AC buffs. Grel is +5 to AC as long as he remains adjacent. Anyone who becomes adjacent to Juniper gains +4 to AC.
Juniper's defenses are currently: AC 41, touch 23, flat-footed 30, CMD 28 (+2 vs bull rush, grapple, reposition, trip, AND another +10 vs grapple because of grease on armor).
Knowledge planes:1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15 Bother. I wanted to know which saves to target...

I think Blue should be down to 0 images. It started with 5, I took out 3, and then T-Rex took out the last one.
Ajax grins at Kelvor, "Still, you seem to have a knack for hitting them where it hurts."
Posting now, but waiting until after Kelvor. If Kelvor attacks the lone Blue and does not kill it, then Ajax will attack it. If Kelvor kills it or Ajax kills it, then he obviously switched to Red.
So as not to influence Kelvor:
Going to roll one set of dice. If attacking Blue...first attack uses Many Shot. If attacking Red, no. GM will have to roll miss chances as I'm not sure if/when I start shooting at Red. Ajax also has Clustered Shots, so apply DR only once.
Ajax takes a 5' step toward blue if that's his target, so add +1 to damage per arrow and +1 to hit
Main wGB + FE - RS:1d20 + 16 ⇒ (7) + 16 = 23Damage if vs Blue wMS +FE:4d6 + 14 ⇒ (3, 2, 5, 1) + 14 = 25

Iterative wGB + FE - RS:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17Damage if vs Blue wFE:2d6 + 7 ⇒ (2, 6) + 7 = 15
Ajax commands Ara to stick by his side and protect him.

If I’m reading the init right, the trex goes after Petra and before me. So... I’ll wait to see if the Trex kills any vrocks, before attacking.
