[PFS1] GM Pudding's The House on Hook Street (Inactive)

Taariik looks at Dru with some shame in his flaming features.

"I ... ehh ... I am sorry Dru!!" he says.

Taariik opens the door with the key, to reveal a shocking sight. You all remember the room from the real world, filled with bodies. Here they seem to have fused together into a single horrifying form, melted like candles into one another, lifeless eyes and mouths blinking and stuttering.

Worse still, the upper torso of a living elf seems to have fused with the others. He's emaciated and white haired, and as the monstrous mound lurches toward you he reaches out with his hands.

"Something went wrong! You've got to kill me! Please!"

The numerous mouths on the rest of the blob start to chant.

"Not to Kill! Not to kill" as it slumps forward, and the elf's upper half protests "I'm not a part of this thing! This isn't me!"

Taariik is up!. If Huxwren would have done some healing before opening the door, feel free to post that before your action. The doorway is providing cover (+4 AC) to everything on the other side

This description scared me as a player! :-D
Free action: Champion spirit dance round, 1 left after this round. All within 30 ft receive +2 to non-spell damage rolls.

“What is this? It ... it looks horrible!??“ he shouts.

Taariik moves into the room and attacks the amalgamation with his greatsword.

Primary +1 adamantine Greatsword, To hit: BAB +6, Champion +2, Str +6, Enhancement +1, pa -2; Damage 2H: Str +9, champion incl. seance +4, Enhancement +1, pa +6: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (11) + 14 = 252d6 + 20 ⇒ (2, 1) + 20 = 23

Taariik moves through the doorway past the surprised blob, and slices it with his adamantine sword. He cuts deep, revealing more horrific mouths from inside it.

Some damage was resisted there

The blob babbles in a way that seems to get inside your heads. It sounds at once close and far away, and seems like it contains some hidden wisdom if only you could listen close enough...

Everyone manages to shake off the strange noises, and the blob bites at Taariik with its many mouths, trying to latch on with each bite.

Bite: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
P/B/S: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Grab: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19

Bite: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
P/B/S: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Grab: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23

After the second bite, the pulsating mass of dead flesh wraps around Taariik and begins a grotesque parody of peristalsis as it pulsates and attempts to engulf him. The elf body on the creature seems even more disgusted, and tries feebly to push him away.

Bite, grappled: 1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 9 - 2 = 27
Bite, confirm: 1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (18) + 9 - 2 = 25
P/B/S crit: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (4, 3) + 4 = 11

Bite, grappled: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
P/B/S: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Bite, grappled: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
P/B/S: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Bite, grappled: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
P/B/S: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

A few of the bites find only metal armour, but several get through and begin feasting on Taariik's flesh.

25 damage to Taariik! He's also grappled

Everyone is up!. If Huxwren would have done some healing before opening the door, feel free to post that before your action. The doorway is providing cover (+4 AC) to everything on the other side

Huxwren doesn’t have a wand of cure light wounds (hazard of being a “fresh” character rather than a “PFS” character). She’s also too proud right now to ask to use someone else’s. XD

Huxwren dashes after Taariik, brandishing her dagger with a grin that fades slightly as she spots the creature and the partially-absorbed elf. “Haha! Not to worry - we’ll cut you out in a jiffy!”

Dagger: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (1) + 18 = 19
Piercing damage: 1d3 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 14 = 15

"Arghhh! This is hurting me! They are biting me!" Taariik shouts.

Free action: Champion spirit dance round, 0 left after this round. All within 30 ft receive +2 to non-spell damage rolls. Taariik increases influence by 1 to increase spirit dance by 4.

Taariik drops his greatsword, draws his cold iron morningstar and attacks the amalgamation.

Primary MW cold iron morningstar, B and P damage, To hit: BAB +6, Champion +2, Str +6, MW +1, pa -2; Damage 2H: Str +6, champion incl. seance +4, pa +4: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 261d6 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19

Oops I forgot to record damage, rest assured, it did take most of the 23!

Huxwren moves in to strike at the blob, but her dagger catches in the door frame. Taariik switches to his dagger and stabs piercing up to the hilt, but it seems the blob is as resistant to it as his sword.

Again, some DR but most goes through

Grunyak
Horrendous Mass of Melted Bodies with half an elf on top -42/2*DR, grappled

Drusilla, Eldrin and Grunyak are up!. The doorway is providing cover (+4 AC) to everything on the other side

Prior to moving on to the door, Grunyak taps Hux twice with his cure light wounds wand. "Probably won't get all of it, but should take the sting away."

wand charge clw: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
wand charge clw: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

He is then a liitle late in reacting when the door is opened being distracted putting away his wand.

Is there a knowledge check we can try to determine what this thing is and how to best fight it?

"What in the ..." "I guess just hit it with weapons until it stops moving?" "That always seems to work."

Five step and attack

Seeing things horrible like that makes you either start or stop drinking.

Introducing Lucifer: 1d20 + 15 - 3 ⇒ (19) + 15 - 3 = 31
Dmg, PA, Sceance, Dance: 1d8 + 7 + 6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 6 + 2 + 2 = 22

By the way, I wasn't refering to you, Taarik, in my previous sentence, if you had any doubt.

I already rolled everyone's knowledge checks and put the results in spoilers in the first post, only Drusilla and Eldrin appear to be trained in Knowledge Dungeoneering

Drusilla's morningstar smashes the blob, crushing mouths and eyes and pulversing flesh underneath.

That all goes through, and this horrendous blob is severely wounded!

Eldrin and Grunyak are up!

Grunyak steps up and swings his axe.
axe swing with cover penalty: 1d20 + 9 - 4 ⇒ (20) + 9 - 4 = 25
dmg slashing: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 2 = 6
"This places gets weirder and weirder."
crit confirm: 1d20 + 9 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 9 - 4 = 7
crit dmg: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 2 = 10

Eldrin moves up behind Grunyak and Huxwwren; draws his wand and points it at the horrible thing sending a single bolt of force at it.

Force Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Move ten feet, draw Wand of Magic Missile and activate it.

Grunyak attempts a difficult strike through the door but gets lucky and lands a strong blow, but finds that the creature is resistant to almost all of the damage.

It isn't resistant to Eldrin's magic missile, but it seems unpeturbed by it. It saves its ire for Drusilla and Taariik. First it sprays some sort of repulsive acid into Drusilla's eyes. She gets a quick attack in as it does so-

Dru AoO: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16

Spittle vs. Touch: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Dru Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

But she overreaches and leaves herself exposed to the stream of acidic spittle, temporarily blinding her!
Blinded Rounds: 1d4 ⇒ 1

The biting mouths then continue to eat into Taariik as the whole mass attempts to engulf him.

Maintain: 1d20 + 9 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 9 + 5 = 27
Damage: 6d4 ⇒ (1, 3, 3, 1, 1, 4) = 13 Plus 2 CON damage
13 HP damage and 2 CON damage to Taariik
Note that despite the description you've essentially been swallowed whole Taariik

The mass of mouths completely envelops Taariik, leaving no part of him visible, just a writhing mass of dead flesh that looks bigger than before. More mouths appear covering its surface, and the half-a-half-elf looks disgusted.

"Oh that's just awful. I can taste him!"

Everyone is up!

Grunyak sees his axe not damaging the blob as much as it should. He moves his axe to his left hand and draws out his hammer.
He swings the hammer at the blob
"Die, blob. Give me my friend back. He is not food."
hammer blow cold iron with penalty: 1d20 + 9 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 9 - 4 = 23
dmg bludgeoning: 1d8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 2 = 9

Good thing i changed my feats and took Blind Fight last level (keep my Dex bonus to Ac, foe doesn't get +2 to hit me, reroll concealment misses

Conc (51+ to hit): 1d100 ⇒ 25
Conc (51+ to hit): 1d100 ⇒ 20 Too bad..

PA sceance dmg: 1d8 + 7 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 6 + 2 = 19

Dru litteraly fights through the blindness, but cannot hit her target

Taariik cannot breathe and feels dizzy.

Free action: Champion spirit dance round, 3 left after this round. All within 30 ft receive +2 to non-spell damage rolls.

Taariik uses his cold iron morningstar (piercing and bludgeoning) and attacks the inside of the creature to get out.

Primary MW cold iron morningstar, B and P damage, To hit: BAB +6, Champion +2, Str +6, MW +1, pa -2; Damage 2H: Str +6, champion incl. seance +4, pa +4: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (16) + 13 = 291d6 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19

“Aaaaarghhhhhjhhhhhhh!!!!!“

Grunyak finds his hammer much more effective as he mulches flesh with it. When his hammer lands it sends a ripple through the disgusting blob, it seems like it's almost enough to kill it, it just needs Drusilla to find it with her morningstar... but her strikes land wide.

Grunyak had done enough though, and Taariik manages to burst out himself, showering the whole room with rotted viscera and inexplicable teeth. The half-elf squeaks out a "Thank you..." with his dying breath. Drusilla manages to get the revolting spittle out of her eyes soon after.

The closet doesn't have anything else in it, but you have at least put one disturbed dreamer out of their misery.

West into the room where you found the nightmare ettercap, or north into the old temple?

”GrunyK, I don’t feel so well. Can you use one of the six scrolls of lesser restoration I bought on me please?“ he says out of breath.

CLW 7 charges : 6d8 + 6 + 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2, 6, 5, 2, 7, 4) + 6 + (5) + 1 = 38

"Sure, Taariik. It will take a little while to use. 24 seconds or so. And this will be number 3 of the six I have used."

Grunyak pulls out another lessor restoration scroll and uses it on Taariik.

ability point restoration: 1d4 ⇒ 2

You gather your strength and proceed on to the west, pushing through the doors into a lavish alchemy laboratory, finely appointed and meticulously organized.

Divinations reveal that both a simple looking glass vial and a cooking pot are both magical, but further examinations may have to wait, because through an archway into the temple your eyes are drawn to an unpleasant sight; the mutilated body of a tusked creature that you recognise as Madame Carrington's benevolent Baku helper. You each have a flash of its kindly presence in the dream sanctuary, softly whisking away any hint of bad dreams. Here its scattered and bloody remains are spread everywhere, its torn limbs and entrails strung up in a gory lattice. Its dead-eye head leers disturbingly from the altar, its tongue lolling from its dislocated jaw.

The rest of the temple is much as you remember it from the real world, a glittering glass butterfly mosaic spreads across the floor, the insect's wings outstretched toward carved marble columns, and behind the corpse of the baku the only difference is that the broken boards of the stage here are replaced with a stone altar.

As you look around, you hear the disembodied sound of children laughing seeming to come from the temple, but you can't see anything.

What do you do?

Putting his wand away, Eldrin pulls out his spell book and starts swiftly turning pages. Once he finds what he is looking for he begins studying it intently.

Eldrin will spend an Arcane Reservoir point to use Quick Study to swap Bull's Strength for See Invisibility once the group enters the desecrated temple.

"Oh, the poor dearie!" Huxwren's eyes widen, then narrow to slits. "We're gonna find whoever did this and string 'em up by their own entrails! If they're lucky, we'll cut their throat first."

Grunyak takes this opertunity to pull out and use his pearl of power lvl2 to better prepare himself. He concentrates on getting to spell spiritual weapon back.
"If we hit incorporeal creatures the power of Torag's weapon will be needed to smack these cultists with his might."

Taariik is clearly shocked.

“I … I don’t know what to say!“

That calls for sweet revenge indeed..

Dru looks around, nervously, her body tense, anticipating an attack

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26

The group looks cautiously around the temple as Eldrin studies his book, the grim scene on the altar hard to look at yet difficult to avoid.

The strange child-like laughter seems to get closer, and you might be imagining it, but it seems to take on an air of mockery and malice.

As Eldrin finishes studying and casts his spell he sees something shocking in the room, and you won't believe what it is!

Sorry folks I ran out of time to update this tonight, I shall do so tomorrow. If anyone would move around during the minute it takes Eldrin to study his book feel free to move on the map

As Eldrin finishes casting his spell, he immediately sees 5 strange creatures moving around you.

These things are a bit gross, if you'd rather not know what they look like you can avoid opening the spoiler (and only Eldrin can actually see them anyway)

As he makes eye contact and they realise he can see him, they move in for the kill.

I'm going to take a leaf out of 2E's book and say that pointing out the location of an invisible enemy takes an action, either a move or a swift. So until Eldrin's turn the rest of you don't know where they are unless they make themselves known. I'm not going to do a surprise round because you were all aware that something was there from the laughter

Taariik and Huxwren are up!

Taariik has no idea what is going on and delays.

Huxwren spots Eldren’s eyes focusing on something and swears under her breath. Taking a moment to steel her nerves, she draws her dagger and holds it loosely in one hand.

Casting heroism on herself and drawing weapon.

Huxwren casts grants herself heroism and Taariik stands waiting for something to happen, and something promptly does happen as one of the creatures See above for their description if you wish suddenly appears trying to touch Drusilla.

As it reaches for her, it emanates a palpable aura of doom, though you are all made of strong stuff and are able to shrug it off.

“Dru??! What is going on? Stop hurting Dru!“ he shouts.

Taariik 5ft steps and attacks the ghost child with his greatsword.

Primary +1 adamantine Greatsword, To hit: BAB +6, Champion +2, Str +6, Enhancement +1, pa -2; Damage 2H: Str +9, champion incl. seance +4, Enhancement +1, pa +6: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (11) + 14 = 252d6 + 20 ⇒ (1, 5) + 20 = 26

<20% miss : 1d100 ⇒ 52

Taariik strikes at the small creature, hitting easily and carving chunks off the fiend. Its head tips back and the mouth at its neck opens wide to laugh at the pain, though it is clearly severely wounded.

Suddenly another appears beside Taariik, its small hand crackling with dark energy as it reaches out to touch him while laughing from it's throat-mouth.

Touch, flanking: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 10 + 2 = 20

Actually I broke the spoilers in the post above, doh! Grunyak you can check Huxwren's spoiler from the previous post and ignore all the bizarre mismatched tags :(

will save : 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27

Waiting for Gruniak action, just in case a spell could boost our saves

"Protect us, lord Torag."

Casts protection from evil 10' circle.

"Use silver weapons or good aligned weapons. These things have resistance."

+2 to ac and +2 to saves and protects from mind control.

@Dru the save was triggered before Grunyak's action, so you wouldn't get a bonus on it. In addition protection from evil gives a resistance bonus so it wouldn't stack with your cloak

Grunyak casts a protective spell, causing the two creatures within its range to hiss in fury.

Spellcraft (DC: 20): 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (7) + 17 = 24

Noticing one of the invisible creatures casting a spell Eldrin looks up from his spell book and immediately begins chanting an unusually discordant incantation. The words echoing strangely in the old temple.

Immediate action, attempting to Countersspell the creature casting the summoning spell. Expending one Arcane Reservoir point and a Dispell Magic.

Counterspell (DC: ?): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

Unfortunately his reactions were not fast enough and the gathered energy is unable to disrupt the summoning magic.

Snapping his book closed Eldrin launches into another spell.

Glitterdust DC: 20

Casting Glitterdust and expending one Arcane Reservoir point to raise the DC by two. Should be able to catch the remaining two invisible creatures and one of the visible ones.

Eldrin fails to counterspell whatever invisible spellcasting is happening, but he conjures a burst of glitter amongst them.

The forms of two invisible child-like fiends are outlined in glitter, and one can be seen cursing over the loss of a spell. The glitter also extends up to the altar, and the Baku stirs, slowly floating into the air, dragging its entrails behind it!

Baku initiative: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19

The recently glittered fiend shrieks with undisguised glee at the raised Baku, casts a spell, moves to Taariik, and touches him

Negative Energy: 4d8 + 7 ⇒ (5, 8, 3, 3) + 7 = 26

Drusilla and Huxwren are up! 20% miss chance on the creepy kids

“Well, I guess they’ve already done the throat-slitting for us. All that’s left is the entrails.” Huxwren steps behind Taariik and jabs at the now-visible creepy child.

Primary Dagger, Heroism: 1d20 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 18 + 2 = 40

Miss Chance, 1 = Miss: 1d5 ⇒ 3
Magical Piercing damage: 1d3 + 14 ⇒ (2) + 14 = 16

5-ft step and full-attack.

Huxwren steps up and stabs the injured child-thing, not in its "face", but lower down near the throat-mouth. Whatever she hits seems like it was important, because she is rewarded with a spray of black blood and a death rattle.

She tries a couple of swipes at the one partially hidden by the wall, but can't get a good hit in.

First hit kills 3 despite the DR, she can redirect the other attacks to 2 but both are misses

Will save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Her body wrecked by the impact of negative energy, Dru doesn't even hear herself shriecking in pain.

Knowing she has to end this fight as early as possible, she strikes without restraint, gritting her teeth

5 feet step and attack foe 4

21%+ to hit: 1d100 ⇒ 62

dmg, PA, sceance: 1d8 + 7 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 7 + 6 + 2 = 22

Drusilla steps up, and despite her very life force being drained away, she lands two mighty hits on one of the the recently-blinded child-fiends. Her expertly aimed blows avoid the pillar, and unable to see them coming the fiend is struck twice, only being saved by its unholy damage resistance.

Taariik is up!

"The Baku is a juju zombie. It is immune to magic missiles and electricity. It is resistant to fire."

Not much else to do, Grunyak rings out with what he does know about the creature now undead.

This fight is not going to be easy. Grunyak can make a weapon a holy lance but it is a standard action. Plus he has align weapon as a domain spell. Again it would use his action for that round. He will probably need to start healing Taariik and Dru or we will loose our damage dealers. I think i will heal with a channel but not sure if the creepy kids would heal as well. I am open to suggestions.

Primary +1 adamantine Greatsword, To hit: BAB +6, Champion +2, Str +6, Enhancement +1, pa -2; Damage 2H: Str +9, champion incl. seance +4, Enhancement +1, pa +6: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 212d6 + 20 ⇒ (2, 1) + 20 = 23

Iterative +1 adamantine Greatsword, To hit: BAB +6, Champion +2, Str +6, Enhancement +1, pa -2; Damage 2H: Str +9, champion incl. seance +4, Enhancement +1, pa +6: -5 + 1d20 + 14 ⇒ -5 + (12) + 14 = 212d6 + 20 ⇒ (1, 4) + 20 = 25
<20% miss : 1d100 ⇒ 41

He then 5 ft steps back.

@Grunyak a few folks have identified the "kids" as daemons, so you'd know that they are outsiders and thus would be healed by channelled positive energy

I'll assume you target the injured one first

Taariik strikes out with his gleaming greatsword, instantly cleaving the fiend that Drusilla had attacked in half in a clearly fatal blow.

First attack kills 4. I suppose 2 would make sense next as you could kill it before it got to act

He then lunges toward another, running it through with his greatsword before stepping back. It looks wounded but not quite dead, and it follows with a step of its own, and lashes out with a sharp looking shortsword.

Short Sword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
Slashing: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Taariik's defending bone leaps into the path of the sword, and with a spark blocks all the damage and the bleed it would have caused!

The creature angrily attacks again, trying to find a weak spot in his armour.

Short Sword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Slashing: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

This time the sword only scrapes across Taariik's armour, enraging the creature. Its head hinges back at the throat and it goes in for a bite

Bite: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
P/B/S: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Once again Taariik does just enough to get his heavy plate in the way though, and emerges unscathed.

The Baku floats from the stage area, staying 10 feet or so above the ground and moves into a position where it's lolling head can see you all, and a burst of soporific motes briefly surround you.

Everyone briefly feels a bit drowsy, but none of you fall asleep.

Grunyak is up! 20% miss chance on the creepy kids

Grunyak will swap remove blindness/deafness for a cure serious wounds.

Grunyak mumbles something under his breath as he grabs his silver hammer of Torag hanging from his belt, "Not blindness, but heal this warrior."

Grunyak casts cure serious wounds and reaches out and touches Taarrik on on the back.
cure serious wounds: 3d8 + 8 ⇒ (8, 2, 2) + 8 = 20

Taariik regains some of this color and his hair burns brighter. Taariik heals 20 hit points.

Slight correction, I noticed that one of the daemons was in the area of the Baku's spell:

Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

After the Baku cast its spell, the angry fiend that had just been attacked by Taariik and attacked him in return, falls fast asleep.

The remaining conscious, unblinded fiend barks out a command
"ബാർക്കെത്ത് അബോധാവസ്ഥയിലായി, അവരെ ഉണർത്തുക! എന്റെ ശബ്ദത്തിലേക്ക് വരിക "

Grunyak heals Taariik of his most grievous wounds.

The blinded fiend stumbles slowly toward the unconscious one, and reaches out to try to wake them.

Miss chance 1-50: 1d100 ⇒ 77
Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

Their hands find them and shake them awake, and then they brush the glitter out of their eyes.
