Dungeon Master Sssssssss's "The Slithering" (Inactive)

Game Master Chris Marsh

Basic Fort, DC 19: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27 Takes 7 damage

Pazúr nearly jumps out of his striped fur suit as the boggard's deafening croak washes over him, but the nimble catfolk manages to resist much of the effect!

Status: 33/68 hp

”Oh! ” cries out Heyou!. ”You look hurt, Pazzie! Me come fix you up good!”

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27

"Let's take down Toughie, before he causes any more trouble!"

The party weathers the croak!

Round 2:
Sir Holton: Hit
Chivivit: Hits
Pazúr: Miss
Giant Lizard: ATK!
Ferrun: Hit
Heyou!: Hit
Smart frog-men: ATK
Kicsit: Go

Turning to Pazur, Ferrun comments, "He is calling you 'Pazzie' now. You seem to have a little friend."

"You my friend, too, Ferrie!" giggles the goblin. "Or is that Furry? Or maybe Purry?"

Holton raises and swings his now enlarged warhammer.

Attack 1: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 312d8 + 6 ⇒ (3, 3) + 6 = 12
With a prayer, Holton attempts to ensure he Strikes True (casts True Strike)
Attack 2: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 112d8 + 6 ⇒ (1, 8) + 6 = 15
Attack 2: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 82d8 + 6 ⇒ (7, 6) + 6 = 19

Two bad rolls on a True Strike...

Ferrun cannot help but smile at the goblins antics. "Yes, I suppose furry is a quality that I'm very proud of." he says as he strokes his fur. "I also do also like to purr, but I usually not when I am in the middle of battle with angry frog men. Maybe when I get back to camp I can find some time to purr."

kicsit causes debris to fly towards the giant lizard

attack TP: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25
damage?: 5d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 3, 1, 3, 6) + 4 = 23

Kicsit's rock hurls forth and nearly fells the lizard! While the swing is powerful enough to end it, Sir Holton misses the lizard (despite the magic.)

Round 3:
Sir Holton: Miss
Chivivit: Go
Pazúr: Go
Giant Lizard: TBD
Ferrun: TBD
Heyou!: TBD
Smart frog-men: TBD
Kicsit: TBD

Determined to finish the lizard, and not be finished off himself, Pazúr slashes fiercely at the huge creature, then again, before raising his shield!

Strike, Strike at Lizard! Raise shield.

Claw attack: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 14 = 15
Damage: 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (3, 2) + 1 = 6

Claw attack: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 22
Damage: 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (5, 6) + 1 = 12

AC 24

Pazur's quick claw misses on the fore swing, but catches the lizard in the throat on the way back. With a hiss the giant lizard falls dead to the floor!

Round 3:
Sir Holton: Miss
Chivivit: Go
Pazúr: Kill
Giant Lizard: TBD
Ferrun: TBD
Heyou!: TBD
Smart frog-men: TBD
Kicsit: TBD

Chivivit hurls a magic rock at one of the remaining frog men. Red

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17
Dmage: 3d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 6, 2) + 4 = 18

Chivivit's rock is off by just a hair, but the party starts to close in on the two wounded boggards!

Round 3:
Sir Holton: Miss
Chivivit: Miss
Pazúr: Kill
Ferrun: Go
Heyou!: Go
Smart frog-men: TBD
Kicsit: TBD

I have discovered that I somehow missed getting battle medic on this version of Heyou! Was totally surprised by this, as the "regular" version I based him on definitely has it.

Heyou! pulls out a moderate elixir of life, and dumps down in Pazúr's throat.

elixir: 3d6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 1, 5) + 6 = 15 +1 fort vs poison and disease for 10 min

Ferrun attacks the red boggard with sharp claws that slash and rip apart frog guts!

Claw: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (16) + 14 = 30
Slashing Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 4) + 4 = 13

Claw: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
Slashing Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 1) + 4 = 10

Claw: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
Slashing Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 5) + 4 = 15

Should the red one fall, he will use his remaining actions to move over to black and continue the assault.

Pazúr nearly leaps out of his skin as Heyou! sneaks up on him with a healing elixir, then settles down and gratefully chugs it down. Licking his chops a moment, he says, "Thanks, Heyou! That's good stuff!"

Status: 48/68 hp

"Pickle juice and pear cider is the base! Yum!" grin the goblin.

Heyou! keeps the swashbuckler in the fight as Ferrun uses his claws with lethal force. His first swipe takes the boggard's head. He quickly steps over and then drops the remaining one!

Despite the opening fright of the lizard, the party stands in total victory!

Out of combat

"Well.... now I can patch you all up good. Got a fresh poultice from this morning... wait, why you looking at me like that?"

"I think I liked slaying frog beastie better than oozes. It is a lot less mess and a more satisfying. "

Ferrun takes a moment to lay hands upon himself and then he spends ten minutes refocussing.

10 minutes healing 2 people... or is everyone at full?

Ferrun:
Assurance
healing: 2d8 ⇒ (6, 7) = 13

Other:
healing: 2d8 ⇒ (1, 7) = 8

Pazúr is at 48/68 hp, and will happily take the 8 from Heyou!'s second roll, if no one else needs healing.

After getting his focus back and receives healing from Heyou, Ferrun begins to look around for anything of interest on the boggards or spoils around the room.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

The party looks around and Ferrun finds what the boggards were so into when you arrived. Their nest contains five onyx insect figurines worth 50 gp each, a pouch containing 99 gp, and gaudy looking button covered in oil which radiates magic. Looking deeper into the rubble to the south, he also finds another cache. The only thing of note here is a ribbon that also seems greasy like the button. It too radiates magic.

”Should I be surprised that frog men like insect figurines? We are lucky that they didn’t eat them. Can you guys make anything of this treasure?”

"Hmm.... lemme see." replies Heyou!. "What kind of thing were you thinking?

"Maybe if I take some of their stuff, with the little buggie figurings, I could make a little diorama. Not very practical. On the other hand, I think I could take some of their clothing... round off the little buggies and they could make a passable sling?"

If anyone else needs healing, here it is.

Medicine DC20: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25
2d8 + 10 ⇒ (7, 8) + 10 = 25
Medicine DC20: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32
2d8 + 10 ⇒ (1, 8) + 10 = 19

Holton attempts to identify the ribbon, with some Guidance.

Religion: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 1 = 23

Holton does a great job pathcing people up, and figures the ribbon's properties out over the span of about 10 minutes. It's a Slippery Ribbon

Man that is a very specific item.

Sounds like something I'd want on my rogue!

Heyou! puts on the ribbon (assuming no one stops him... because goblin :P )

Moved everyone's tokens

Heyou! checks out the double doors, listening to see if there is anyone on the other side as well as looking for traps.

If it looks safe he will try to open the door.

Ferrun double checks the doors to make sure that there are no traps.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

"Do you hear anything, Heyou!? I wonder if we have any more frog folk on the other side."

Ferrun answers his own question when he hears quite a few boggard voices. There are at least 3, likely more....

"Alright, my friends. Are we ready to take on some more frogs?! Grip your weapons and let's do this!"

Ferrun opens the door quietly to see if he can get in the room and take the element of surprise.

Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23

"I have rea..." And stops speaking as he noticed Ferrun opening the doors.

Holton casts Protection on himself right before starting to speak.

Heyou! steps back and puts his fingers into his ears.

Pazúr shifts his cape off his shoulder and wraps it tightly around his left arm, flexing the claws on his right paw as he readies for the fight to come!

He then joins Ferrun in trying to sneak into the room, managing to step on his own toes and those of all of his companions within reach.

Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11

"Hey, Pazzie, I can see you" says Heyou!, only trying to be "helpful".

Looking right at Pazur.

[b]"Do not listen to Heyou. This is a noble effort to hide."[b]

Looking right at Pazur.

"Do not listen to Heyou. This is a noble effort to hide."

The party tries to sneak into the room, but it doesn't go well.... at least not quietly.

Five slabs protrude from the walls of this room about 3 feet above the floor. Carvings of scrolls in the walls above hint that they may once have been used as desks or worktables, but they’re now all covered with a mat of muddy reeds to serve as sleeping ledges. A quintet of boggards, 4 warriors led by one of the more erudite looking ones spend a moment shocked before they move to engage.

Round 1:
Ferrun: Go
Chivivit: Go
Heyou!: Go
Sir Holton: Go
Warriors: TBD
Kicsit: TBD
Seer: TBD
Pazúr: TBD

Sir Holton strides forward and prays to Sarenrae.

"Saranrae, shine your light in the eyes of my enemy."

Blindness, Fort DC21, on White in the back who. looks like the leader.

FORT: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24 Sir Holton flashes divine power in the boggard's face. The spell won't last, but it works for the moment.

Round 1:
Ferrun: Go
Chivivit: Go
Heyou!: Go
Sir Holton: Blind
Warriors: TBD
Kicsit: TBD
Seer: TBD
Pazúr: TBD

Heyou! probably unwisely runs up to the door, pulls out an alchemist's fire, and chucks it at black!

First range band from Far Lobber
BOMB!: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20 fire: 2d8 + 1 ⇒ (5, 4) + 1 = 10 2 splash and 3 persistent fire

He then throws another one at blue.

BOMB!: 1d20 + 11 - 5 ⇒ (11) + 11 - 5 = 17 fire: 2d8 + 1 ⇒ (3, 2) + 1 = 6 2 splash and 3 persistent fire

"Maybe you guys could at least pretend to be as quiet as a cat!"

Ferrun moves right in and slashes blue with his claws!

Claw Attack: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18
Slashing Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (3, 5) + 4 = 12

Claw Attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21
Slashing Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 6) + 4 = 11

Heyou! hurls a pair of bombs that strike their targets, setting the field aflame! A little gets on Ferrun, but the damage to the enemy is clear!

Ferrun's two claws are powerful indeed. A field of wounds opens on the boaggard's face and torso.

Round 1:
Ferrun: Hit
Chivivit: Go
Heyou!: Mad Bombs
Sir Holton: Blind
Warriors: TBD
Kicsit: TBD
Seer: TBD
Pazúr: TBD

"Yay! Fire!" cheers Heyou!, the need for quiet and subtlety gone.

Chivivit points at the seer and sneers. It was funny that the boggards thought they could win. He knew the seer would find it funny too. Sending a hint of dark magic at the boggard, he twists fear and mirth together and tries to worm it's way into the seer's mind.

Casting hideous laughter and evil eye. It'll need to make two DC 21 will saves.

Evil Eye WILL: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27
Tasha's WILL: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29

Chivivit's spell gives the boggard a sensible chuckle, but for the most part his spell fails to take hold.

The warrior boggards all cluster in to stop the party at the door!

Blue Gives a terrifying croak before he savagely swings its club at Ferrun for all he's worth!. Everyone EXCEPT Chivivit needs to make a Will save v. fear DC 21. Fail and you're Frightened 1
Club v. Ferrun: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25 for DMG: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Club v. Ferrun: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25 for DOUBLE DMG: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Flat v. Fire: 1d20 ⇒ 10 Still on fire

The boggards next him close and also go for broke against Ferrun:
Red Club v. Ferrun: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24 for DMG: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Red Club v. Ferrun: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19 MISS
Black Club v. Ferrun: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20 MISS
Black Club v. Ferrun: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22 for DMG: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Flat v. Fire: 1d20 ⇒ 2 Still on fire

The final one closes and goes after Heyou!
Green Club v. Heyou!: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17 MISS
Green Club v. Heyou!: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21 MISS

Round 1:
Ferrun: Hit
Chivivit: TUHL
