GM Euan's Rise of the Runelords (Inactive)

Game Master Euan

Raising an eyebrow Seamus realizes that Kast's magic circle removed the first giant from the fight just by walking near him. Deciding to give it a try, he taps the heels of his magic boots, and slipping through the entrance, tumbles alongside the tent wall towards Val's location.

double move, tumbling 30 ft.

Stuff in effect (for my own remembrance) Magic Circle Against Evil +2 deflection bonus to AC and a +2 resistance bonus on saves. Perfect Blessing Gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls and a +2 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves. AC 36 with buckler.

Hearing the commotion, Rastaf rushes to the doorway.

Round 10, Init 9

Kast hacks at the red giant who refuses to sit and gibber incohently.

Iron Quill, two handed:
1d20 + 18 + 2 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 18 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 33 to hit; (GMW,charge)
1d10 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 18 + 2 = 23 magic cold iron damage

Iron Quill, two handed:

1d10 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 18 + 2 = 26 magic cold iron damage

Sticking with ac/hit/ref for now

Val pats her mouth and gives a loud yawn. She glances about, pretending to be surprised her comrades are now fighting. She turns back to the two blocking the passage. ”Oh, you were attacking me? I thought you were all waving me through. Who taught you how to aim?”

She suddenly stabs right for the eastern passage guard (yellow). ”It goes like this.”

Trying to make yellow flatfooted for Seamus so he can get some sneak attacks next turn!

Greater Feint: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (3) + 26 = 29

Izomandrakus does not take well being attacked and roars giving back to the giant in front while hovering into the tent.

orange Will: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 2 = 25 The giant doesn’t seem to react to his presence.

Amazingly another giant is freed from the incredible burden of being told what to do every moment of the day - and he too shuts down completely, teetering slightly and drooling.

Seamus tumbles through the room, trying to capture the lot of them in his protections - and succeeds! Izomandakus slashes and bites and buffets and roars ripping the giant apart. Valena stabs at yellow, striking her first blow deeply and painfully, but coming up just short on the backswing (not much dex in a giant). Rastaf rushes to the entry. Kast smacks the stone giant once, with a rather nice blow, and finishes with Izomandakus started! Koba, after lingering just a moment more, follows Rastaf, his bow at the ready.

Orange and yellow lash out at Valena, trying to strip her images.
orange slam on Valena: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (3) + 18 = 21 damage: 1d8 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 images: 1d7 ⇒ 3

yellow slam on Valena: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (6) + 18 = 24 damage: 1d8 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12 images: 1d7 ⇒ 4

Alas, Desna does not shine her face upon them, and the have a lackluster performance, removing not a one image!

Round 11, Init 9

Kast charges up to hack at orange/yellow, whichever one refuses to babble incoherently or is still up.

Iron Quill, two handed:
1d20 + 18 + 2 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 18 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 32 to hit; (GMW,charge)
1d10 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 18 + 2 = 23 magic cold iron damage

Chuckling at Val's comment about Waving her through, Seamus is pleased to see that one of the giants is free from it's domination. Though being a drooling idiot didn't seem to be much of an inprovement. Stepping closer to the yellow giant he shrugs, "Better a drooling idiot than dead, I'd think." Attacking repeatedly with his rapier and long knife.

Stuff in effect (for my own remembrance) Magic Circle Against Evil +2 deflection bonus to AC and a +2 resistance bonus on saves.

Taking the extra attack this round

Val dodges out of the way of each attack, all seven of her. ”Never seen someone dodge seven times at once, have you? You ever heard the story of the brave little tailor? Swatted seven flies in one blow! You are as strong as a tailor, are you not? Surely I am just a fly before your size and might?”

She twists back into a lunge with a flourish. ”Let me show you how to do it.”

She’ll keep attacking yellow if he’s up. She’ll move her stare to orange otherwise with her free swift action

Pachemu follows along, casting curious stares at the drooling giants.

The remaining two giants succumb to their injuries rather quickly, coming on on all fronts! They prove to be but a short delay for the party. But was it delay enough?

All the giants are dead, dying, or drooling. The hall continues, and turns back. I’ve opened up the map a bit more.

"Seems we will not be announced" Izomandrakus licks his claws removing the giant remains "Well, we will have to do it ourselves"

Then, flies through the tent corridors looking for the master luster.

Pachemu follows along through the ground.

Round 9

Kast follows IzoDragonus, also gaining height of the ground.

Double move.

Presently keeping his feet on the ground, Seamus follows along behind Kast and Izomandakus. As they go he asks, "Do you think we'll be able to help those giants get their minds back?"

With the extra 30 ft for perfect blessing and a double move, he'd get 90 ft. I stopped at 70 ft. He would keep moving further if permitted.

Kast pauses, just for a microsecond, and considers.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9 Heal

"Maybe we could try some root marm soaked in corn nog. That might work."

The air in this room is unusually close - seeming almost to shimmer with pleasant-smelling mist.

Pillows, cushions, and throw rugs cover the floor, and four beds sit in the corners of the room. Each bed has an iron frame to which numerous ropes and leather straps are attached. A large padded throne sits against the far wall, between two beds, while opposite it in another corner, a tall, spindly censer sits on a low wooden table - it’s from here that the faint mist seems to be issuing.

Everyone who enters the room, and who breathes, must make a Will DC 17 or take a -10 competence penalty on Wisdom checks and Will saves. Ouch.

”Oh… my, my, my” a youthful looking succubus (image) smiles. She finishes casting another cure spell into Voivod as she looks up. ”The main event! No one has come so close. Breaking you is going to be delightful.” You hear a tiredness in her voice, though the look on her face is a hungry one.

Zavashala is also here, closer to the entry and with her ranseur out - so watch for the reach weapon.

Carry on. Map opened.

Rastaf notes that 2 of the giants are not down, but neutralized for now.

He also notes that Valena is right next to him, about to charge into combat, and is about to shine.

He casts Greater Heroism on her, then doubles his move forward with his Blessing.

Get 'em, girl!

The half orc grins, baring fangs that would scare most people.

I got your back, he says, rushing into the fray.

Nodding at Kast comment as he moves past, Seamus wasn't sure what root marm or corn nog was, But if Kast said they'd work then they probably would. Kast and Izomandkus were the smartest people Seamus knew.

As Seamus passes through the doorway he freezes in his tracks. Recognizing the 'working girls' from earlier, he quickly sheaths his rapier and mithril long knife in their scabbards on his belt and, reaching down, draws the cold iron long knives from the top of his fancy boots.

Hearing the succubus comment about breaking them, reminded Seamus of a spoiled child intentionally breaking toys. Shrugging, he retorted, "Children who break their toys, shouldn't get new ones."

Seamus double moves into the chamber. Izomandakus does the same. Valena follows suit. Rastaf casts and walks (or more likely walks and casts). Kast considers his options and also double moves. Koba rushes to catch up!

Delvahine calls out, ”My children!” she calls out glancing to the open curtain to the south, ”Come forth and help me fight these absolute brutes!” She says it longingly looking forward to the fight ahead.

She then directs her minions and they move like chess pieces (inspire courage).

Oh, sorry, I forgot to mention there are six succubi, all spinning around each other in a confusing display much like Valena - though there are seven of her.

Swirling through the open curtains to the south are two creatures (pink and purple) who are surrounded by a nimbus of near-blinding light. These strange creatures look something like emaciated children with clawed hands. Very creepy.

Voivod and Zaveshala do their best, again, against the intruders. Zaveshala swings thrice at Seamus before 5’ flapping back. Voivod double moves into position a little ways away from Seamus as well.

In a surprisingly see-saw-y series of attacks, the demoness manages to clip Seamus once, and strip him of his final image.

Everyone is up!

Remember, if you enter the room, and breathe, Will DC 17 or take a -10 competence penalty on Wisdom checks and Will saves. They all seem to be immune the jerks.

Kast moves up (turn to come) and sees the called upon outsiders.

1d20 + 19 ⇒ (16) + 19 = 35 Know (Planes). - DRs? Resists? Special attacks?

Val tosses a casual salute to Rastaf in thanks for the spell, then takes the speed boost from Kast’s spell and rushes in underneath the flying demons, circling around to reach the big bad leader.

Will Save (greater heroism): 1d20 + 17 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 17 + 4 = 37

”Hi, I am Val. I have to say, I did not expect to be called a brute today or any other day. I was hoping you would be a bit more glam or dapper, too. Not to my tastes, I am afraid.”

She launches a probing strike at the succubus, trying to see how easy it is to hit her or strip an image.

Attack with Irreconcilable Differences (greater heroism, power attack): 1d20 + 21 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 21 + 4 - 4 = 23
Damage (power attack, painful stare): 1d6 + 10 + 8 + 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 10 + 8 + (1, 3) + 3 = 28

Distracted by the two glowing emaciated children Seamus failed to protect himself from the flying demoness, getting clipped once and loosing his mirror image. Knowing his cold iron long knives will hurt the working girls, he taps his heels together, taking to the air, he flies along the curtain wall up an around the first demoness to attack brown the one that had scratched him. Flying slightly higher, 15 ft he slashes at her with his cold iron long knife in his un-bucklered hand.

Valena, are you avoiding the two newcomers in your route through the room? Not sure if they get AoO's or not. :)

Rastaf has no idea what the creepy kids are, but he moves forward, rod in hand, and casts an empowered Holy Smite on the 4 succubi near him.

A good blast with heavy damage all around!

Seamus, I'm owed a will save please.

Edit: using the tough crowd bonus from the magnificent Val

Hrm. I'm not sure the evil applies Seamus.

It's technically a trap in the room - a non-evil magic item. I think you fail, pending a hero point or a +1 from somewhere of course. Still, it's only will saves, I'm sure those won't be important in this fight with three succubi and two, ah, children...

Surely your luck will change!

Perfect Blessing: +2 to attx & AC until further notice.

After moving up, Kast uses his perfection to cast extended Divine Favor so he’s ready to go next round.

Special attacks, special defenses, lower saves

Flying over Rastaf, the white opens his jaws to snap at Vovoid, offering Seamus a flank for sneak attacking.
Bite+HR+BoF+flank {AS}: 1d20 + 19 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 19 + 2 + 2 = 432d6 + 17 + 3 ⇒ (4, 3) + 17 + 3 = 27

Seamus flies into a pair of AoOs, avoiding them with his AoO. So instead they try to pick off a couple images from Valena.

brown on Valena: 1d20 + 19 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 19 + 3 = 41 damage: 2d4 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (1, 1) + 9 + 2 = 13 images: 1d7 ⇒ 3

Amazingly, they strip two images!

Seamus tumbles in and connects with his blade overcoming DR. Izomandakus creeps up a bit and chews on Voivod a bit. Valena misses, and doesn’t strip an image either… Rastaf lights up the room with damaging holy power (and kills Voivod)! Kast further prepares himself. Koba finally catches up.

”Woah!” he tries to resist the mist.
Koba Will: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27 vs DC 17

Delvahine continues to direct her minions and they move like chess pieces (inspire courage).

”Hi, I am Val. I have to say, I did not expect to be called a brute today or any other day. I was hoping you would be a bit more glam or dapper, too. Not to my tastes, I am afraid.”

”Oh darling, you almost certainly are a Brute. In the most delectable way too. Oh the dance we could have together, but you brought so many friends! I’m afraid too many for my tastes. But we’ll thin the herd I’m sure.”

She steps back 5’ and you notice a flicker….

…before she casts another spell. As she’s out of reach and you don’t have a reach weapon, she doesn’t cast defensively. Assuming her spell gets off - she disappears!

I’ve left her on the map, and as she 5’ stepped, you’re pretty sure where she is (yes, she’s invisible).

Her two children both cast spells before smoothly moving into position to assist their, ah, mother. One directs a greater dispel at Valena, and one at Izomandakus.

Targeted Greater Dispel
One object, creature, or spell is the target of the dispel magic spell. You make one dispel check (1d20 + your caster level) and compare that to the spell with highest caster level (DC = 11 + the spell’s caster level). If successful, that spell ends. If not, compare the same result to the spell with the next highest caster level. Repeat this process until you have dispelled three spells affecting the target, or you have failed to dispel every spell.

Valena Dispel Check: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29
Izomandakus Dispel Check: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 28

I’m pretty sure I still only roll once despite there being three dispel opportunities from your highest level spells to the lowest.

Voivod and Zaveshala do their best, again, against the intruders. Zaveshala swings thrice at Seamus before 5’ flapping back. Voivod double moves into position a little ways away from Seamus as well.

Remember, if you enter the room, and breathe, Will DC 17 or take a -10 competence penalty on Wisdom checks and Will saves.

1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 28 Will vs. DC 17

Kast prepares to move forward into this room with all its sexy, lustful dangers.

I wonder if they practice kissing in this room.

Perfect Blessing: +2 to attx & AC until further notice.

Round 12, Init 9

Kast moves up to attack light blue.

Iron Quill, two handed:
1d20 + 18 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 18 + 2 + 2 = 42 to hit; (GMW)
1d10 + 18 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 18 + 3 = 24 magic cold iron damage
Auto confirm: 1d10 + 18 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 18 + 3 = 29 additional magic cold iron damage

Val loses greater heroism, tough crowd, and freedom of movement

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

Val steps back from where she knows the succubus went invisible. ”Images, displacement, and invisibility? Bit much, do you not agree. Especially since your little friends seem so keen on me not having fun myself.” She quickly centers herself and casts a little spell of her own.

Cast Defensively DC 17: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (3) + 15 = 18

I believe our big baddie lady will need one of these from me….
Faerie Fire SR Check: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30

Five foot burst, so should hit her and the Shining Child

Should that succeed, Val makes the succubus visible again. And no longer enjoying the benefits of being displaced.

Noting the succubus’s orange attire, Val picks the brightest lime green for the faerie lights that she can, the kind that clashes as much as possible. Wagging her finger, Val makes a tsktsktsk sound. ”Burnt orange and lime green. No wonder you wanted to be unseen! I thought Thassilonian fashion would be out-of-date, but I have seen better looks on the worst-dressed list.” Val smiles to herself. She has not gotten to enjoy being this petty for a while, having been so far away from the social scene.

"Blast!"Frowning as the working girls split apart, Seamus curses the furthest, cuts into him with her polearm. Grunting he turns towards her. "Don't go anywhere, I'll be right there." Hovering where he's at, he attacks at the one against the tent wall with his cold iron long knives, slashing this way and that. If he ends her, he will 5 ft step and attack the other as well

Stuff in effect (for my own remembrance) Magic Circle Against Evil +2 deflection bonus to AC and a +2 resistance bonus on saves.

Stolen his magics, the large dragon suddenly deflates. Fortunately he is not too high from the floor, and Izomandakus flexes a bit his knees and recovers quickly standing up in his human form "Critters!"

"Don't think that will be enough to stop me" he challenges the shining child, although recognizing the dangers of the creature, he completes a resist energy from fire with a quick movement of his hand "Careful, those things are made of pure fire"

Izomandakus follows along the movements of the invisible Dalveine. He will say nothing though if Valena is firing the right place. If she got it bad, he does point towards where Dalveine is though.

Pachemu follows along, setting herself behind the boy.

Voivod was down prior to the start of the round, my bad. So Seamus 5’ flaps and attacks Zevashala finishing her.

Seamus hits five times and slaps the demon from the skies. Izomandakus protects himself from fire and moves up. Valena tries for a faerie fire and succeeds! Rastaf does something heroic! Kast attacks pink, the only target still up and in reach. And he gets its attention. Koba moves up and into the room.

Koba finally arrives, ”Woah!” he tries to resist the mist.
Koba Will: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14 vs DC 17

The succubus smiles as she dances around Valena, ”See, we are well matched!” She casts another spell.

Dispel Check: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14 vs DC 22 to dispel the faerie fire on herself

Delvahine is a little frustrated, but not overly so as she steps a bit further away.

She continues to direct her minions and they move like chess pieces (inspire courage).

Purple steps up to Valena, and attacks.
melee touch: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 19 + 2 = 22 fire: 4d10 + 2 ⇒ (6, 6, 3, 5) + 2 = 22 images: 1d5 ⇒ 3

Pink frowns at Kasts’ shenanigans, steps back, and launches a beam of fire from his tiny chubby fingers.
ranged touch: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 19 + 2 = 30 fire: 10d10 + 2 ⇒ (1, 3, 6, 5, 6, 2, 5, 1, 4, 8) + 2 = 43

Even with such rolls, as they're little touch monsters, I think Valena loses an image, and Kast burns (do you have resistance up?).

Taking attack/hit/ref this round

Val glares at the shining child, as unpleasant as that sounds. ”Excuse me. I am trying to have repartee with the Miss Burnt Orange and Lime Green over here.”

She suddenly flips her rapier to point at the shining child, her hypnotic gaze making it seem as if she is stabbing in two places at once. And then it turns out that yes, she is stabbing in two places.

Shifting hypnotic gaze to purple. It has a -2 on all will saves as long as she stares

Greater Feint: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (12) + 26 = 38

Kast burns (do you have resistance up?).

Yes, Resist 30 to cold. So…if you could retro that to cold damage, it would be appreciated. Yeah, thanks in advance.

Perfect Blessing: extra attack.

Round 13, Init 9

Kast burns (has resist 5 fire) and heals slightly (2 fast healing), and steps up closer to pink to respond.

Iron Quill, two handed:
1d20 + 18 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 18 + 2 + 3 = 42 to hit; (GMW,DivFavor)

Pleased to see the last of the working girls go down fall, Seamus, pauses, looking towards Val. Seeing his friend was attacking one of the 'children' he ponders why they are called 'children' as he flies to attack the same one as Val. Not wanting to present his backside to the one named Delvahine, he stays as far away from her as possible, but still able to attack the purple child with his cold iron long knife.

Delays so Val's attack comes before his. Moves west 25 ft, lower 5 ft. Stuff in effect (for my own remembrance) Magic Circle Against Evil +2 deflection bonus to AC and a +2 resistance bonus on saves.

Seeing Delveine with his see invisibility, Izomandakus advances with a surrounding maneuver to engage with her "Why are you sending your minions to attack us? You will repent for this!"
+3 Club+HR+BoF: 1d20 + 18 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 18 + 2 + 2 = 32

If the staff strikes through the images and displacement, Izomandakus discharges the spell stored within the weapon.
Magic missile damage: 5d4 + 5 ⇒ (3, 3, 4, 3, 4) + 5 = 22

Pachemu oinks menacingly at Delveine.
Intimidate-smaller size (demoralize): 1d20 + 11 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 11 - 4 = 22

images: 1d6 ⇒ 4 - for now Izomandakus holds on to his magic missile as only an image is popped.

Still using the rod, Rastaf casts another Holy Smite, hoping to do some harm to these nasty monsters, keeping Val out of the AoE.

holy damage: 10d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 4, 3, 6, 1, 1, 3, 1, 6) = 34 x1.5 = 51
Will save DC 20 for half and not blinded.
CL vs.SR: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 14 = 15
Well, it might hurt the minions. Damn.

Izomandakus swats an image from Delvahine, but Pachemu has trouble making purchase in any threatening way. She thinks he’s cute. Valena slashes purple though she only crits once - even with the feint Seamus delays to be sneaky, and just drops it! Rastaf does indeed scorch the minions. It kills purple outright, but pink remains, hanging by a thread, for Kast who lifts up the child, tickles it a little, and swats it back to the ground - hitting all three times! The child’s form winks out of existence like a torch doused with flame. A thin smoke rises from where it once stood. The same happens to both of them. Koba backs carefully out of the room, knowing full well he doesn’t want a piece of this fight in his current condition.

Casting defensively (she can’t fail the roll), Delvahine makes a strong suggestion as she rushes forward to Valena, ”Oh now dear, give me just one kiss. For luck!” and she attempts to kiss Valena. She draws her whip as she moves.

She is automatically successful vs Izomandakus DC 30 then Valena DC 33 in her acrobatics to avoid AoOs as well. Skillful!

Valena, Will DC 27 or comply. If you comply, a further Will DC 22 save please. The question becomes, how long does a kiss take? I’m going to say a standard action I think.

Will Save (vs charm or compulsion): 1d20 + 17 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 17 + 2 = 29

Val sighs and shakes her head at the succubus. ”I told you, darling, you just are not my type.”

Moving hypnotic stare back to the succubus. -2 on all her will saves as long as Val keeps it up

For her last few seconds of Kast’s Perfect Blessing, Val shifts to all-out attacking, betting she can at least strip more images this way.

Smiling as the 'children' turn to smoke, Seamus realizes Delvahine is moving towards Val. Flying that direction he frows as the succubus tries to kiss Vall. Landing behind Delvahine his smile returns as he realizes that he succubus wasn't Val's type. Quickly, he attempts to stab the demon with his cold iron long knife, resisting the urge to comment on the situation.

Kast heals slightly (2 fast healing), and moves over to lunge at the final foe.

1d10 + 18 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 18 + 3 + 3 = 25 magic cold iron damage

And realizes that he should have spend the round power flexing after that shining child beatdown.

Izomandakus piles on the succubus' master rushing forward while spinning the club "Yeah' you are not our type! Got it? Tell her Kast, she is not our type for kisses!"
