TOZ's Echoes of the Everwar Low Tier (Inactive)

Game Master TriOmegaZero

Vailis was not able to get his spell off on Ingrge.

Arghhh! Sorry, I missed that, GM, old eyes. I will change my action...

Ingrge will try to move thru the web to some area clear of it...

Escape Artist: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (16) + 18 = 34

Double move…

No worries, it's a bit of a mess to keep up with.

17 Vailis

14 Kyra (Grappled)
10 Ingrge

I will use 1 round of the confusingly-named Liberation ability from my Liberation domain, granting me freedom of movement..

Calling upon the blessings of Milani, Adeah calmly walks out of the webbing, which seems to part before her as though afraid to hold her back. She loads a cartridge, raises her musket and fires.

Musket + Inspire Courage + good hope, touch: 1d20 + 14 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 14 + 2 + 2 = 30
Damage: 1d12 + 14 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 14 + 2 + 2 = 24

Rocked by the gunshot, Vanyth speaks another spell, fading from sight completely.

10 Ingrge

Party is up!

Unable to see through the strings what is happening Vailis just summons 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6 augmented small fire elementals "This is going to hurt but it will free you Kyra"

Then in Ingean he commands the elementals "To burn the web strings and free the cleric, then you fight the evil vampire in the throne"

As they appear Coco disappears, and they start to slam around, burning as much 5' squares as they can with their burn ability.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

"The vampire went invisible on us! I guess he decided we were too much for him!"

Jorgen casts a mirror image spelling himself and moves to where the vampire was last.

1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

And maintaining inspire courage

I can deal with that...waiting to hear if the webs are burned before doing my action...can cast invisibility purge to find him

Vailis' elementals set to work burning a path for Kyra, the flames they set slightly singing the cleric as well.

Fire Damage: 2d4 ⇒ (2, 4) = 6

30 Adeah

27 Jorgen
21 Vanyth (Damage: 28)
17 Vailis
14 Kyra (Damage: 6)
10 Ingrge

Red squares are burning web.

Just in case Kyra isn't able to reveal him for whatever reason...

"That won't save you." Adeah squeezes her eyes shut, then opens them again. Vanyth appears as a translucent shape, easily targetable. "My mother was from the Astral Plane. I'm told I have her eyes." She raises her musket again.

Using my 1/day racial spell-like ability, see invisibility, which I have literally never used before. This fight is fun!

Slam AoO: 1d20 ⇒ 3

Adeah opens her eyes to find Vanyth directly in front of her! The vampire's fist strikes out but only impacts on her breastplate.

Token updated.

Assuming Adeah points out the vampire’s location...

Ingrge moves 30’ and fires a silver arrow at the vampire’s location...

To Hit: Dex+Base, Magic, Weapon Focus, PBS, Precise Shot, Deadeye Bowman, Point Blank Master, Deadly Aim, Favored Enemy
Damage: Strength, Magic, PBS, Deadly Aim, Favored Enemy

Longbow: 1d20 + 14 + 2 + 1 + 1 - 2 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 14 + 2 + 1 + 1 - 2 + 4 = 33
Miss <= 50: 1d100 ⇒ 60
Magic/Silver Damage: 1d8 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 3 + 1 + 4 + 4 = 17

Moving forward, Kyra casts her spell, clearly revealing the vampire for Ingrge's shot!

Seeing the archer with clear shots, Vanyth moves up the ramp, ducking around the corner and disappearing from sight as the wall blocks Kyra's emanation.

10 Ingrge

Vailis pulls out his faerie fire wand and readies to use the wand if he spots the vampire shooting or he is somehow revealed "Tell me, where is it Adeah"
UMD DC 20: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (19) + 20 = 39

Meanwhile the fire elementals continue burning the webs to nothingness.

"He's on the other side of the wall!" To point him out, Adeah squeezes the trigger.

Musket 1 + Inspire Courage (I assume), touch: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 12 + 2 = 24
Damage: 1d12 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 14 + 2 = 18

Musket 2 + Inspire Courage, touch: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 12 + 2 = 23
Damage: 1d12 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 14 + 2 = 21

Musket 3 + Inspire Courage, touch : 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 2 = 11

CLINK! Her weapon misfires on the third shot.

No special materials on the bullets, just Clustered Shots to partly overcome DR.

He has total cover from Adeah at the moment. I left the token at the last spot everyone was aware of. Also, black squares are now burnt out web.

Krya sends out a wave of holy energy to burn the vampire.

channel DC 15: 6d6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 1, 4, 5, 5, 4) + 6 = 28

Kyra unleashes the light of Sarenrae, but does not spot the vampire in the burst.

[retcon]
Adeah rushes out of the room in pursuit, aiming her musket down at the fleeing figure. "Oh no you don't!"
[/retcon]

I'll use the first attack and damage rolls from above as my single attack this round.

Jorgen taps Ingrge's shoulder and says, "I'm going to move you a little closer to the action. Don't worry, I'm pretty sure I won't accidently teleport you inside a wall or something."

Jorgen casts Jester's Jaunt to move Ingrge 30 ft. closer to where Adeah says the vampire has landed, hoping that he'll be able to spend more time shooting and less time running around. Continuing to inspire his allies, Jorgen rushes after the monk.

From looking at the map, I'm hoping that Ingrge will be able to take a five foot step and get a clear shot at the vampire. And remember, +2 to attack and damage from inspire courage and another +2 for inspire courage!

Adeah punches another bullet into the prone form of Vanyth where his leap left him in an ignoble position. Jorgen moves Ingrge closer to the last location of the vampire, as Vailis casts his wands spell in the area of Adeah's gunshot.

30 Adeah

27 Jorgen
27 Ingrge
21 Vanyth (Damage: 50)
17 Vailis
14 Kyra (Damage: 6)

Jorgen might want to move Ingrge beyond the wall between the rooms.

As Vailis finishes his wand movements a pale violet glow surrounds and outlines Vanyth, shedding light as a candle "Thanks Adeah! There you have him Ingrge!"
Creatures outlined by faerie fire take a –20 penalty on all Stealth checks. Outlined creatures do not benefit from the concealment normally provided by darkness, blur, displacement, invisibility, or similar effects.

After the push from Jurgen, Ingrge moves 5’ west and unloads a rain of silver arrows at the vampire...

(Will burn a use of Perfect Strike)

Magic/Silver Damage: 1d8 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 4 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 3 + 1 + 4 + 4 + 2 = 19

Perfect Strike: 3/5

There is also a +2 morale bonus to attacks, damage (and saves and skills) from Good Hope. And everybody also gets one Moment of Greatness, where they can double the bonus from Good Hope. (some people used it against the web saving throw). Add in your bonuses! If you keep forgetting them, then I might as well have saved the spell slot!

I wasn't sure if good hope was still active, but yea that would add +2 damage to my attack.

Seeing the vampire laid out, Ingrge focuses his training to strike true, but narrowly misses the would be lord. His last arrow strikes true however, before Vanyth discorporates into mist, floating towards the entrance to the tomb.

14 Kyra (Damage: 6)

The dice do decree he continues, amazingly enough.

And damage! And yeah, I cast it right before we entered the room so it should still be good.

Jorgen drops his falchion and unslings his bow as he dashes forward. Getting a clear line of fire, he fires an arrow at the incorporeal cloud. As he releases a string, he whispers a little arcane magic into the arrow.

"Not so fast, buddy."

Short bow: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25
Piercing, Cold iron, arcane strike: 1d6 + 4 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 2 + 4 = 14

Unable to make much harm to the creature from afar on it's gaseous state, Vailis remains attentive and confident on the powerful ranged might of the party.

The half-elf let's the elementals completely burn the web.

Meanwhile, he readies an action to cast wall of ice to seal the tomb's entrance if it seems the vampire is going to escape from the bows aim.

Kyra moves to see if she can catch the vampire with a wave of energy.

channel dc 17: 6d6 + 7 ⇒ (2, 4, 6, 4, 5, 5) + 7 = 33

Will Save: 1d20 ⇒ 3

Even in his misty form, the vampire seems to resist the holy power.

Do Jorgen and Ingrge's arrows appear to do anything, or do they just pass right through? I don't want to use up cartridges if there's no noticeable effect.

Jorgens is doing very little. Ingrge appears to be able to overcome the DR.

As Ingrge continues to harry the translucent vampire with arrows, Vailis attempts to cut off the escape with walls of ice. Vanyth responds with scorching rays of fire to burn gaps in the walls, stymied by the summoners ability to restore the ice barrier each time. However, the arrival of a horde of rats quickly turns the tide against the summoner as the rats scratch through multiple times, opening just enough of a gap to allow the misty form to flee to the surface.

Dealing with the swarming vermin, the party gives chase across the multitude of islands, finally vanquishing the undead menace in his hidden lair. Returning to the town, the community of Whistledown hails you as heroes (though the fact that you are carting around a 400-year-old corpse of an Osirian concubine is a tad unsettling for most of them). Regardless, Adagre insists on throwing a festival in the Pathfinders honor, during which he proclaims you all Protectors of Whistledown.

Scenario complete! Chronicles should be up tonight or tomorrow.

Oh! Were we trying to meet some sort of deadline?

Sothis, throne of the pharaohs, and capital of Osirion, is a city rooted in ancient tradition. Of these, perhaps none is more sacred than funeral rites. As such, it came as no surprise when Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir invited you once again to Osirion’s capital for the funerals of three important figures who once played a significant role in their nation’s history—a powerful sorceress named Akila, a warrior-woman called Kamilah, and a lady smuggler known as Meskhenet the Wise. As you were involved with retrieving their remains, Balentiir celebrated your success and asked that you remain after the ceremony, while he continued to study these women in an effort to better understand their—and Osirion’s—past. Weeks passed, allowing you to rest from your recent exploits and enjoy the wondrous city of Sothis, but your vacation ended when Balentiir sent word, asking for your immediate counsel at the Pathfinder Lodge.

If there are any remaining purchases to be made, you have had time to do so.

Vailis leaves the attention of this farmstead to attend the relevant Osiriani funerals. The half-elf dresses white and purple silken tunic but otherwise is ready with all his equipment, just in case. Seeing the rituals, the half-elf nods "A final and deserved end to these tormented souls. It is strange to think they died so long ago"

Coco observes the rare rituals with a researcher's curiosity, placing many questions to the Osiriani taking the lead on the rites.

The pathfinder is quick to attend Balentiir's call "What's it Venture Captain? Have you discovered anything new about the rings and other relics we recovered with the mummified remains?"

Kyra stays behind to help with the funeral ceremonies. She then receives her summons and heads to the lodge.

I'm ready to head out at a moment's notice...anything you guys think I should have prepared special for spells or keep the standard loadout?

Jorgen spends time in Sothis hanging out at the he local tea shops and hookah bars, practicing his Osiriani as he relaxes and enjoys time off in this big city.

I'm going to purchase a glove of storing so that, one way or another, my musket will always be in hand. Will also replenish my cartridge pouch.

When Adeah is recalled and rejoins the others, her signature weapon has vanished. However, a magical glove now adorns her right hand.

The main entrance to the Pathfinder Lodge passes through the double doors of an immense archway towering over the 12-foot-high exterior walls surrounding the grounds. The doors stand slightly ajar and unbarred, despite the late hour. Beyond the archway, torchlight illuminates the approach toward a natural garden of shade trees and undergrowth occupying much of the inner courtyard and blocking view of the lodge itself on the far side.

Having spent time catching up with old friends and running a bit behind, Ingrge walks swiftly to the lodge to join his companions on the summons to the lodge.

"Greetings, my friends...I guess we'll soon be off again, it seems..."

Seeing Adeah has stepped up in fashion, Ingrge makes a sweeping bow in her direction. "Ah, m'Lady, stunning glove...does it have a function or are you making a fashion statement?"

"Ah, I see you decided to sell that overly noisy device of yours and bout a fashionable piece of cloth" Vailis nods to Adeah and Ingrge as they arrive.

The half-elf self-sufficiently walks through the courtyard "I wonder we have been summoned at such a late hour"

Coco walks by his side "Most probably someone wrongly filled one of the chronicles, Master. Again" the eidolon casts a tired look at Vailis.

Well, I'm sure there is a valid reason...or excuse, perhaps... Kyra says as she sips on a mug of hot chocolate and dips a cookie of some sort in it. So...any speculation where we're off to now?

"Ah, m'Lady, stunning glove...does it have a function or are you making a fashion statement?"

"It does!" Adeah responds proudly, ignoring Vailis' maligning of her favorite weapon. She snaps her fingers; her musket materializes in her right hand, and she catches the barrel with her left. "I thought this was a much more convenient way to travel." She gestures with two fingers, and the musket vanishes into the glove with a soft swish. "Looks good on me, too, right?" she adds, allowing herself a bit of girlish pleasure as she admires the new accessory. It better. Cost more than half my savings.

"Anyway, what would you like to bet they want us to retrieve another ring?"

Hmm...beautiful and practical...nice touch... Kyra says admiring Adeah's new gloves.

Jorgen arrives late and yawns loudly as he stretches his arms to the sky. "Have you all been enjoying Sothis? I have been having a great time here. You can have a lot of fun here if you know where to look."

Barely pausing, he says "If not a ring, I bet he's got us fetching something else. What else would he want us for?"

As Vailis and Coco push open the doors fully, a glowly symbol flares to life at the top of the arch. A ringing burst of sound cracks through the night, shocking everyone but the just arriving Jorgen!

Sonic Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 8

Fort save vs stunning for everyone but Jorgen! Map is updated.
