GM Losonti's Wrath of the Righteous (Inactive)

Game Master Losonti

Strider continues to watch the entrance area.

Tristan: That roll doesn't tell you anything, but you've fought and identified dretches before.

Massielo: I'm assuming Strider is accepting the raging song, but correct me if that's wrong.

Total with bonus good damage: 3 + 1d6 ⇒ 3 + (3) = 6

Selann: Yes, grease is dismissible, though it takes a standard action to do so.

As Massielo casts his protective magic on Caliban, Greta's hammer crushes the skull of the dretch in front of the elf. Caliban and Junior, working in tandem, cut down the other dretch at the front of the line, the creature too paralyzed by its fear of Tristan to offer up even a token defense. Since cyan was dead, I redirected both attacks to Red.

Longsword, PA, Rage Song: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 9 + 1 = 19
Slashing, Good: 1d8 + 9 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 9 + (6) = 16

Irabeth steps into the opening created by Greta, swinging her longsword at another of the creatures left reeling by an arrow from the party's mongrel allies. The strike hits home, cutting the dretch's head from its body.

Because Pink and Purple were a bit too similar, I changed Pink to Blue.

Half the dretches down already! Benedic is up!

Benedic steps forward and swings at the closest dretch, accepting the raging song.

Attack (Radiance), bless, bull's strength, inspired rage: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 21
Damage (cold iron/good/magic/slashing), bull's strength, inspired rage: 1d8 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 2 + 1 = 7
Damage (lesser celestial blood): 1d6 ⇒ 1

Benedic's mongrel companion guards their rear.

Tristan taps Junior on his shoulder and yell,
Think this will work?

The Inquisitor winks, as points to Orange.

Intimidate (Cha): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20

He then Overruns him.
AoO AC 19
CMB, inspired, bless: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 5 + 1 + 1 = 17

EDIT: I forgotten both are Standard Actions. It seems that my Rules set has officially switched to PF2e...lol.

From what I can tell, accepting the raging song doesn't affect her attack or damage. It would increase her will, but decrease her AC. I guess she accepts it.

Yeah celesisl blood only adds damage to melee weapons. If they need a boost to Fort or Will they will go up by 1.

Seeing the group moving in and half of the demons down, Selann ends his spell to get rid of the grease.

Whoops, you're right. That'll teach me. He's still dead, though. Tristan, since you'd already acted this turn, I'm going to interpret your post as your action for round 2.

The two dretch at the front lurch forward and throw themselves at the defensive line of Benedic and Irabeth, but not a single blow finds a gap in their defenses. Iomedae's shields hold their ground. Behind them, the third dretch summons a bank of stinking fog that envelops the entire room in nauseating vapors. It's centered on the intersection of Benedic and Caliban's squares, so pretty much everybody will need to make a DC13 Fortitude save or become nauseated. If you are nauseated and leave the cloud, roll 1d4+1 to determine how long you say nauseated outside of it.

As a reminder, anything within 5 feet of you within the cloud is concealed (20% miss chance) and everything further than that has full concealment (50%) and can't be located using sight.

Concealment: 1d100 ⇒ 97

Tristan bowls over his target, knocking it flat on its back and evading its attempted counterattack. Likewise, its two allies flail ineffectually at the inquisitor as he sails past them.

The whole party is up!

Fort save DC 13: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Tears streaming from his eyes, Benedic coughs and retches, pushing past the people behind him in desperate search of breathable air. (Move action.)

This AP really likes this spell!

Fortitutde: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
Sinesia fortitutde: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Although Massielo can hold his lunch, Sinesia is failing to keep her cool. He sees Benedic also in trouble and remembers how such a cloud was problematic for them underground. He also retreats, taking the mongrel with him.

Remember if you accepted rage song last turn you have a +2 con and thus a +1 to your fort. Not that it will help a roll of a 1.

I changed the AoE to no fill and the color to green, I couldn’t remember where the door was, lol.

Fort vs stinky demons: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 5 + 1 = 17

Junior exclaims as some of his companions retreat, ”Ha! This is nothing compared to being hot-boxed by my mom.” Junior takes this opportunity to switch to sword and board, minus the sword and plus a warhammer.

Fort: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

Lotney rolls his eyes at Junior and gets out of the cloud.

Fortitude: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25

The elf's immune system finally kicks in against the overhwelming smells he has encountered since falling into the chasm below Kenabres. Shaking off Junior's enraging presence, Caliban focuses, spinning his black blade in a quick snap, while incanting with his other hand, and delivering an arcane mark upon his target with the return of his blade to guard. Trusting on the shadows to cover his spellcasting and allow him to complete the incantation.

Swift Action: Arcane pool, Spell combat, Spellstrike: Arcane Mark
cast defensively DC 15: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12 AC 18 for any Aoo
Spellcombat blackblade: 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 6 - 2 = 12
damage, cold iron +1: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Spellstrike, Arcane Mark: 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 6 - 2 = 20
damage, cold iron +1: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

miss % 1 high is good: 1d100 ⇒ 62
miss % 2, high is good: 1d100 ⇒ 72

As his blade lands on the return strike, a glowing image of a wasp appears on the demon's skin, surrounded by four elvish letters.

Fort Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15

My getting rid of the grease was my round 2, correct? I'll add backing out of the stink since my fort saves usually aren't very good....

Fort Dc 13: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 6 + 1 = 19

Tristan sneezes.
This seems a bit unhealthy.

The Inquisitor steps forward 5' to provide Flank. He then taps Orange on the shoulder.
Excuse me, but you are about to return to the Abyss!

Intimidate (Cha): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21

Fort: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

Greta hardly notices the stink that’s turning other people’s stomachs as she makes her way forward through the fog (moving up to the doorway). Unable to see anything beyond Benedic, she blindly swings her hammer into the space in front of him.

longhammer (rage/bless): 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 11 + 1 = 21
miss chance: 1d100 ⇒ 68
for (good): 2d6 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (4, 6) + 10 + 1 = 21
plus (holy): 1d6 ⇒ 3

Irabeth Fort: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
Irabeth longsword vs Orange: 1d20 + 9 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 4 + 1 = 16
Slashing: 1d8 + 4 + 4 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 4 + 1 + (1) = 16

Irabeth manages to power through the stinking fumes, not letting them distract her from her mission. She brings her longsword down onto the prone dretch's head, cleaving it in two.

Benedic and Greta: I moved your tokens in line with your posted actions.

As Benedic retreats, the closest demon tries to rake his back with its claws, but finds no purchase. It barely has time to express its frustration before a feint from Caliban throws the creature off balance and positions it perfectly for Greta's hammer, which flies out of the swirling fog and crushes its ribcage like an overripe tomato.

The sole remaining dretch, oblivious to the fates of its comrades, falls upon the only creature it can still see: Tristan. He need not concern himself, however, as the demon's clumsy strikes scarcely do more than muss his hair.

Everybody's up! Anyone that made their save, please make another one. If you failed, you don't need to make another one.

Just need a confirmation. Massielo ran out of the fog. Do I need to reroll?

Fort Dc 13: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 1 = 13

Is this the Intimidated one?
Tristan coughs, The Inquisitor smiles at the last remaining dretch.
Melee +1 heavy Mace : 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 131d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

He then retreats out of the poisonous fog.
AoO

Fort: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20

Greta smirks as the unseen demon in the cloud collapses under her hammer with a satisfying crunch. She ducks past Caliban in search of any survivors and when she finds herself next to one hauls off and slugs it with her gauntlet.

spiked gauntlet (rage/bless): 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 1 = 18
for (cold-iron/good): 1d4 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 1 = 10
plus (holy): 1d6 ⇒ 2

Fortitude save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Caliban starts forward, and then the terrible smell overwhelms his delicate elven senses and he begins retching again.

Still choking, Benedic continues to move out of the stinking cloud.

Massielo, you do not if you made it out.

Two wet thuds are all that anyone outside the cloud can hear, followed shortly thereafter by another impact on the floor. As the noxious fumes clear, Greta and Tristan stand over the sole remaining dretch, its face a battered ruin.

Combat over! Phew.

Not even looking at the lump of demon, Tristan turns his gaze and steps toward the stairs.
Stealth (Dex): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13

Just taking a quick looksee...

EDIT: Clearly, that will go as well as possible!

Massielo says "Wow, good job! I thought this cloud would be our end!" Once everyone is recomposed, Massielo is about to suggest they move on. However, Tristan takes the initiative and moves forward.

Junior searches the room for loose change.

Perception: 1d20 ⇒ 18

Benedic catches his breath for a few moments, embarrassed at his brief incapacitation. He hefts his shield and prepares to continue forward as soon as the party is ready.

Selann waits for the stink to clear, unless the team is moving forward?

Greta uses the piece of cloth she tore from one of the tiefling's tunics to wipe demon guts from her gauntlet and hammer while she looks down at the nearby corpse with a smirk. "See anything?" she quietly asks Tristan.

Tristan's normally precise senses are still dulled somewhat by the lingering effects of the fog, but he still distinctly hears the sound of a pair of feet rushing about at the top of the stairs for a moment before falling still.

Tristan gives the signal for feet on stairs. He then shrugs and follows....

Massielo follows Tristan closely, and he has to bring Sinesia by the arm through the fog. He holds his breath going through so it's easier. He does not wish to let his friend go by himself.

Greta nods at the pantomime, readies her hammer, and joins the procession on the way to spring the next round of demons’ trap.

Apologies if my description wasn't clear: the fog only lasted 2 rounds before evaporating.

Waiting for you atop the stairs are a half dozen tieflings armed with curved daggers. While they had clearly been hoping to catch you by surprise, Tristan's warning ensures you're on guard as you climb the steps.

Tristan, Greta, Benedic, Junior, and Selann are all up before the enemies! Please arrange yourselves on the stairs in your preferred marching order before taking your actions.

Benedic, having recovered from the choking smoke, moves up the stairs and tries to draw the tiefling's fire so the others in their party can ascend. He swings the legendary sword at the furthest tiefling (purple).

Attack (Radiance), bless, bull's strength: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 20
Damage (cold iron, magic, slashing), bull's strength: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 2 = 6

Not having room to maneuver Selann lets the heavy hitters go ahead of him.

Tristan waves at the group of curved dagger wielding cultists.
You boys waiting for someone?

He then winks at them, blows each a kiss, and attempts to Overrun Purple!
Cmb vs Cmd: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Unfortunately, the Inquisitor had forgotten to prepare for all this Overrunning shit; and; his being not built for it has actually gotten what we all have been waiting for: stopped in his smartass tracks!
This should be fun!

15 vs flat-footed Cmd?

Junior sees Tristan wobble as he flies up the stairs, he breaks out his poms and cheers him on. "Gooooooah team!"

Gallant Inspiration: 2d4 ⇒ (3, 2) = 5 Have a +5 competence to your maneuver.

I believe I can take an immediate action since I'm not flat-footed from being an uncanny dodger.

Warhammer vs blue: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
Bludgeoning: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Junior follows Tristan and Benny up the stairs and swings his warhammer.

If Tristan still doesn't succeed his over run attempt I will attack green instead.

I can’t move my icon from my phone, but…

Greta hurries up the stairs too. Once again frustrated by the close quarters, she stops behind Junior and tries to attack the tiefling beyond him (green) with her hammer.

longhammer (cover/bless): 1d20 + 9 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 9 - 4 + 1 = 26
for: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (6, 5) + 7 = 18

confirm?: 1d20 + 9 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 9 - 4 + 1 = 24
for another: 4d6 + 14 ⇒ (1, 6, 2, 6) + 14 = 29
lol

sweet christmas

Benedic and Tristan are first up the stairs and into the melee, followed by Greta and Junior. Benedic's strike, while not deadly, wounds the tiefling enough that he can't stop Tristan from bouldering past him. Junior follows close in with encouraging words and a mighty swing of his warhammer that sends another of the tieflings reeling.

Putting them all to shame, though, is Greta's fearsome longhammer, which pierces through the melee and simply obliterates one of their would-be ambushers. The force is so powerful, in fact, that the tiefling's corpse is partially embedded into the wall, seemingly standing there even after she pulls the weapon free. for the record, you did more than 4 times his maximum hp

The tieflings, initially shocked by the violence of the party's ascent, find their courage and leap into action with a chorus of battle cries. Their enthusiasm, however, is not matched by their skill, and the heroes dodge or parry every blade swung or thrust at them.

The whole party is up!

Benedic swings at the tiefling he flanks with Tristan and tries to finish him before his partner can harm the inquisitor.

Attack purple (Radiance), bless, bull's strength, flanking: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 6 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 27
Damage (cold iron, magic, slashing), bull's strength: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 2 = 7

Guys, if you don't take damage, I can't heal you! :P

Massielo walks down and overlooks the situation and tries hitting the nearby (purple) enemy from above.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

At the bottom of the stairs Selann can't really even see the battle. He does hear it though and is concerned by the sounds of so many combatants. Had the evil forces from the whole garrison set up an ambush?

Warhammer vs blue: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
Bludgeoning: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

The teifling's untimely demise around him, especially the one now lodged in the wall makes Junior shriek with terror and also delight as he indulges his darker side for a moment. His throat feels dry but he keeps his cool and swings.

Tristan swings at Purple!
Melee +1 heavy Mace, bless, flank : 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 101d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

And watches his magical mace go flying across the room, bouncing off the railing of the staircase, spinning through the air to clang off the wall above Junior's head to land at the 1/2 orc's feet.
You wanted to use that?

Just flavor...lol.

Caliban raises his sword in hand, and rushes to the closest teifling chopping down with his sword. Coming up Tristan!

attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
damage: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

I've been playing the WotR crpg this weekend and now I am even more excited for the stuff y'all have coming your way.

Caliban, since Benedic killed purple (and a 10 misses in any case), I moved you to flank Red with Tristan. Unfortunately, a 12 also misses. Massielo, feel free to move your token to a different square.

Benedic and Junior finish off their wounded opponents with swift and efficient blows, while the tiefling caught between Tristan and Caliban fights to survive just a few more seconds.

Irabeth finishes her ascent of the stairs, and moves to stand with Junior against his other foe, as cries of alarm begin to sound from the room to the east.

Greta and Selann (since you didn't specify any actions) are up!

Sorry, busy weekend. Also, I’m on my phone and can’t move my icon (so double sorry).

Greta moves up the stairs between Benedic and Irabeth, then steps past the priest to bring the unengaged tiefling (gray, or black?) into reach. Then she brings her bloodied hammer whistling through the air towards it…

hammer (bless): 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 1 = 24
for: 2d6 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (5, 4) + 7 + 1 = 17

Started playing the crpg too. It's already a lot different from our game and I'm only level 3.

Massielo, now downstairs, looks to the east thinking here comes trouble.

Greta, with the way everyone's positioned, I don't think you'd be able to find a square where Black would be within your longhammer's reach. Hope you don't mind if I redirect your attack to Yellow.

Greta's second hammerswing slams into the wall again, nearly knocking another of the tieflings' heads off with the sheer force of it.

The two remaining tieflings work together to effect a fighting retreat, though the swings of their shortswords cut nothing but air. From the eastern doorway, the shouts of alarm are replaced by the sounds of several people casting spells.

Everybody's up!
