Game Master supervillan

Thoriel continues her dance with the morlocks, her body spinning and her blade slashing away.

Attacks vs. Blue and then White if first one goes down.

Attack 1 Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 16 + 2 = 21 Damage: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

Teric unleashes a storm of frost amongst the morlocks, who suffer for it.

Thoriel cuts down one of the brutes.

white club vs Thoriel: 1d20 + 11 - 1 ⇒ (5) + 11 - 1 = 15

The morlock in the white loincloth, his allies falling around him, swipes at Thoriel as he leaps away. But slowed by Teric's ice magic, he does not get far and his attack is easily avoided.

Round #3: protection from evil, perched 30' up

Back in half-elven Hellknight Armiger form, Aeliah spontaneously converts a third level spell into conjuring magic and ✨casts SNA III to deliver an augmented crocodile into position to flank for one of the others. (std action for Saurian Shamans conjuring reptiles or dinos)

The large reptile goes straight to work against the morlocks.

augmented croc bite on Black: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 5 + 2 = 25
bite damage: 1d8 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 2 = 10

If it hits, augmented grab on Black to grapple: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 11 + 2 = 16

It then adds a tail slap against Red
augmented tail slap against Red: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19
damage: 1d12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 + 2 = 13

As White attempts to disengage from the melee Nina nudges Inky to follow, the pair ducking past Thoriel and moving into range for Nina to try and spear the creature...

Attack vs. White (+1 Adamantine Lance; Arcane Strike, Heroism, PA): 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28
Damage: 1d6 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 15 = 20

Attack vs. White (+1 Adamantine Lance; Arcane Strike, Heroism, PA): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Damage: 1d6 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 19

"Getting runners is all well and good but we're not going too far from the others," Inky calls to her summoner as a warning as she readies to defend. "That's a good way to get our teeth kicked in down here!"

Daedîn steps back 5’ and unloads at red first, then black…

To hit: Base/Dex, Magic, Weapon Focus, PBS, Deadly Aim, Precise Shot, Deadeye Bowman, Manyshot, Rapid Shot
Damage: Magic, Strength, PBS, Deadly Aim, Holy

Magic/Cold Iron/Good Damage: 1d8 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 6 + 2d6 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 2 + 1 + 6 + (5, 2) = 21

From atop her perch Aeliah conjures a crocodile. It thrashes against the morlocks, taking on the swarming pair. Two hits, grab fails.

Nina and Inky pursue the fleeing morlock, and Nina stabs it. Once - unless you've gained Pounce somehow ;)

Daedîn fells another of the creatures, and injures a second.

Pai, flying 20'
Mr Stony, -26hp (pit 1/12)

The bold may act!

Pai keeps flying over the battlefield, letting her friends take out the remaining two morlocks, while the acid eats away at the golem.

Acid damage 2d6 ⇒ (6, 6) = 12

Pai spectates. Likely to be sufficient ;)

Despite being hopelessly outnumbered and outmatched, the remaining morlocks continue fighting.

black vs Daedîn: 1d20 + 11 - 1 ⇒ (18) + 11 - 1 = 28damage: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Daedîn gets a knock on the head for his trouble.

Black, -48hp, slow 1
Mr Stony, -38hp (pit 2/12)

The bold may act!

Teric floats over the field, flicking his fingers and directing the balls of lightning to the remaining morlocks. They crackle and pop with frozen snaps.

Cold Ball Lightning vs White (Reflex DC 24 negates): 3d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 1) = 6
Cold Ball Lightning vs White (Reflex DC 24 negates): 3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 2) = 10
Cold Ball Lightning vs Black (Reflex DC 24 negates): 3d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 3) = 13

"Hey now, where are you going?" Thoriel easily catches up with the white clothed morlock, skipping around into flanking position opposite Nina and Inky.

AC vs AoO at 38 during spell dance.
+1 Cold Iron Keen Scimitar: 1d20 + 16 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 16 + 2 + 2 = 34 Damage: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

white ref DC24: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20
white ref DC24: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
black ref DC24: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28

Teric sends his ice lightning crashing into the two remaining degenerates, but this time they do better at avoiding the attack.

Thoriel moves to block an escape route...

black aoo: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

...she injures the fleeing morlock, but does not fell the tough brute.

Motivated to get away from Teric's lightning, it scuttles forwards and harasses Nina.

club vs Nina: 1d20 + 11 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 11 - 1 = 23

The gnomish knight and her eidolon are prepared for the attack, and block the blow.

Combat round 4

Round #4: protection from evil, SNA III (2/10), perched 30’ up

While Aeliah digs through her pack from some rope, the croc steps 5 feet to the SE and continues harassing the black-eyed morlock.

He’s a real cutie! Good thing Tiddles isn’t here. He’d get sooooo jealous!

augmented croc bite on Black: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 5 + 2 = 20
bite damage: 1d8 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 2 = 7

If it hits, augmented grab on Black to grapple: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 11 + 2 = 33

Obligatory full-attack tail slap.

augmented tail slap on Black: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11
damage: 1d12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 2 = 6

"Hey, whoa, calm down there bro," Inky sneers as White tries to get up close and personal. She takes the opportunity to flex her teeth and claws a bit...

Bite vs. White: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Claw #1 vs. White: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Claw #2 vs. White: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16
Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

...before taking a step back, allowing Nina room to work.

Yes, would've been just one attack last time. Sorry!

"At least this time is going much more smoothly," Nina offers brightly as she tries to help finish off White.

Attack vs. White (+1 Adamantine Lance; Arcane Strike, Heroism, PA): 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30
Damage: 1d6 + 15 ⇒ (2) + 15 = 17

Attack vs. White (+1 Adamantine Lance; Arcane Strike, Heroism, PA): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
Damage: 1d6 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 15 = 20

Pai continues to flit here and there, quite pleased with her acid pit.

Acid damage 2d6 ⇒ (5, 1) = 6

Whilst Aeliah fetches rope from her pack, her summoned crocodile bites and grabs hold of a struggling morlock.

Nina and Inky finish off the other morlock.

Finish it, Daedîn

Daedîn steps back 5’ and fires at black…

To hit: Base/Dex, Magic, Weapon Focus, PBS, Deadly Aim, Precise Shot, Deadeye Bowman, Manyshot, Rapid Shot
Damage: Magic, Strength, PBS, Deadly Aim, Holy

Magic Longbow (Manyshot): 1d20 + 16 + 2 + 1 + 1 - 3 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 16 + 2 + 1 + 1 - 3 - 2 = 24
Magic/Cold Iron/Good Damage: 1d8 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 6 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 2 + 1 + 6 + (4, 1) = 21

Magic/Cold Iron/Good Damage: 1d8 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 6 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 2 + 1 + 6 + (1, 5) = 21

Daedîn's arrows finish off the last morlock aggressor.

acid: 18d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 4, 6, 6, 3, 5, 4, 3, 3, 3, 5, 6, 4, 2, 2, 6, 3) = 73

By the time Pai's pit spell expires, the golem has been reduced to a pile of smouldering rubble.

The morlocks have nothing of use - they wear rags, and carry only crude stone clubs. The nearby hut does not seem to have been inhabited, but it holds a drum that radiates a magical aura.

Not far to the south you see that the attack on the fort has been repelled too. The morlocks have been scattered, and it is safe to approach.

Aeliah dismisses the crocodile with a blown kiss💋 and a wave, before using her rope to lower her backpack to the ground.

She then divides the length in half and ties a knot to join both loose ends, creating a long loop reaching from around the petrified bough she sits on to the ground.

climb down rope + guidance : 1d20 ⇒ 9

Assuming she makes it safely to the bottom, she unties the bottom knot, re-gathers her backpack and stows the rope.

"You all fine warriors. The Hunter blessed Aeliah when put her in your pack. Aeliah show appreciate by healing, yes?"

The druid 'lo-fives' Pai, Nina and Inky on the way to ✨casting CLW on Daedîn and CLW wanding Thoriel.

CLW spell on Daedîn: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Aeliah CLW wand (twice) on Thoriel: 2d8 + 2 ⇒ (6, 6) + 2 = 14

Top up Daedîn with Aeliah's CLW wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

She then examines the drums within the ruined shelter.

✨detect magic + Take 10 Spellcraft: 10 + 14 = 24

"Drums of Panic. They already been sounded once today. They also heavy."

She muses on the usefulness of the expensive item. "Might be useful keep morlock horde away while we escape for our lives, maybe?"

Spellcraft 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (8) + 20 = 28

”You beat me to it,” Pai says with a grin at the half elf. ”Those drums are neat!”

“Nina Brightspark. Aeliah think you clever. Also Inky is clever.”

The druidess looks quite grave in her Hellknight mock-armor. “Aeliah got question. You think better Aeliah wildshape as big, fighty dino companion of Thoriel, go through Hellknight fort so her no have to talk.”

“Or go through as tight-mouth Hellknight Armiger Fake so her can get into spell-fighting without waste time wildeshape back to elf?”

⏳

“Hey, Pai. Pit was very neat, very deep.”

Aeliah sounds like she’s laying groundwork for something. “Velociraptors cool dinos. Very clever but thrill-seekers.”

“Next time you create pit, you tell Aeliah? Aeliah once tell Velociraptor of human ‘BASE-jumping’. Her describe it: ‘feel like you gonna die – but don’t.’”

“Dino ask Aeliah how to try. Her think her could push one down Pai’s pit, and then dismiss summons before it hit bottom.”

“What think?”

”That'd be a great idea! You all knocking more of the baddies into the pit would be awesome for us! Especially if they can’t fly out.”

“Nina Brightspark. Aeliah think you clever. Also Inky is clever.”

The druidess looks quite grave in her Hellknight mock-armor. “Aeliah got question. You think better Aeliah wildshape as big, fighty dino companion of Thoriel, go through Hellknight fort so her no have to talk.”

“Or go through as tight-mouth Hellknight Armiger Fake so her can get into spell-fighting without waste time wildeshape back to elf?”

"Oooh," Nina responds, looking thoughtful. "Well, walking around as a dino sounds like it'd be AWESOME - especially if you don't wanna talk to any of these guys. But, hmm...if you fight mainly with your spells, then maybe it'd be better to stay like you are to save time."

"Yeah, pretty much what Nina said," Inky rumbles in agreement. "Work smarter, not harder, and all that. Whatever lets you get to the killing (or defending yourself if you want a 'nicer' way of framing it) more quickly, the better!"

Teric lands on the ground, straightening his Hellknight uniform. "You've best make the choice quickly. It looks like the Hellknights have driven off the morlocks too. They're not far from here. I think it might be safer to wear the mock armor and keep quiet. We already look like an odd bunch. So we're sent in as reinforcements, yes?"

Your fake papers say that your mission is to rescue the Athenaeum researchers.

“Aeliah never gone wrong following Nina Brightspark advice, Slick Man.”

Amazingly, Aeliah’s posture straightens and her chin lifts, as she marches up to within 10 feet of Teric. She stops. Snaps to Attention, and stares at a point on the horizon over the sorcerer’s left shoulder.

“Ser! Armiger Signifier Aeliah of the Most Loyal Order of the Rack reports, ser!”

She snaps off a perfect salute. “Ser! Allow this lemure to congratulate you on your recent battle performance, ser!”

Then she breaks the illusion by grinning broadly.

Daedîn bows to Aeliah. ”Thank you for the healing, m’Lady, I’m much obliged…”

Looking towards the fort, he nods at Teric’s words. ”We had best press on. As we saw the fight at the fort, some Hellknight lookouts probably noticed our fight as well…so they’re probably more likely to believe our disguises and fake orders. Probably best to say as little as possible but we had best let the Trade Prince take the lead in speaking. He is the best among us at…hmm…stretching the truth and playing the part…”

“All good, Daedîn. You warrior. Everyone here warrior. Healing least Aeliah do.”

“Probably best to say as little as possible but we had best let the Trade Prince take the lead in speaking.”

“Yeah, Aeliah get it. I know she act diff’rent from humans and civilized people, but her also understand being professional undercover spy, Daedîn. You no worry.”

She nods. “And let Slick M…Teric do talking. Aeliah abides.”

‘Teric.’ *giggle* Sounds funny.

The battle at the foot of the tower is over, and you make your way towards the Hellknights' fort.

Several armoured knights of the Order of the Rack patrol the barricades. As you approach, one of them calls to you.

"Hold there! I am Paralictor Maladin Bane, commander of this fortification. You've fought your way past morlocks and golems to reach us - but why? I am expecting neither reinforcements nor relief. State your identity and purpose."

The gate remains closed.

Teric approaches holding the letter explaining their mission to rescue the missing Athenaeum researchers. "Teric Dimitrov, sir. I have orders to report to you, but for the express purpose of rescuing a group of researchers who may be trapped in Rachikan. There appears to be some interest in what they were studying."

"May we enter to discuss this?" He stands straight and addresses the Paralictor.

Bluff: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (13) + 21 = 34

"And this is why you want at least one person like 'Slick Man' in every group," Inky whispers, primarily to Nina and Aeliah. "Pays to be friends with someone that could charm the horns off a devil!"

"Alright Dimitrov" Paralictor Bane replies. "Open the gate!" he calls down.

You are admitted to the Hellknights' fort.

The fort itself has been constructed from a combination of jistkan stone and petrified wood. The palisades are 15 feet high, and each corner of the fort has a watchtower mounting a catapult. The front gate is 30 feet across - large enough to admit wagons and animals.

Inside, there are several buildings: a stable and barn, several stores, living quarters, and a winch-and-pulley lift. In the courtyard is a barred wagon, such as might be used to transport prisoners.

A dozen or so men and women clean weapons and dress wounds in the courtyard, in the aftermath of the morlocks' assault.

Paralictor Bane approaches. "Fetch food and drink for our brothers and sisters!" he calls to his troops. The fort looks like it could hold around 50 soldiers.

"Now, come with me to the Map Room and we can discuss your orders." Bane waves you all through, and you settle into a room where several maps lie upon a table, piles of handwritten notes to either side. Bane invites you to sit.

The fort is displayed on Slide 5 along with a Hellknight portrait.

As a lowly Armiger, Aeliah remains standing at parade rest behind Teric’s chair.

The half-elf says nothing but takes in as much as her rigid posture will allow.

Perception: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (14) + 24 = 38

"Well...pretty nice setup, considering where we're at," Nina whistles, actually rather impressed. "How often do attacks like that happen down here?"

Teric offers his letter to the Paralictor, then takes a seat. "We have been briefed on the basic situation, Paralictor, but what details do we need to know before going in after them? We saw you fend off the attack. How well are you holding this position? Have there been any surprises besides the morlocks and golems?"

Aeliah notices that the maps are of parts of the lower city of Rachikan, and have been drawn up only recently.

"The morlocks attack frequently. Their numbers seem limitless" Bane answers. "This attack was unusual though. They came from below in a simultaneous assault. We have no idea how they coordinated with the forces on the upper level. Their savagery hides a cunning intelligence. I'm afraid that they wrecked the lift, and it's going to take us several days to repair and rebuild.

We haven't encountered any other hostiles, save for the morlocks and golems. We were confident in the security of the fortification, until now."

Paralictor Bane studies the papers that Teric hands him. The hellknight commander nods silently. "This is all in order Dimitrov. You should descend as soon as the lift is working order again. Until then, you and your troops should get settled in. There are bunks available, though you'll need to fit into the sleeping shifts. Dismissed."

You have the run of the fort at this point - what do you do?

I will put up basic descriptions of the various areas in Discussion.

"Several days to repair? I-" He stops himself, merely nodding. "Yes, Paralictor." He turns to the others and motions for them to follow as he leaves the building.

Outside, he says, "Well, we could be here a few days. Perhaps we should go take a look at the lift to see if we can help get it repaired." He shakes his head. "I'm open to ideas. The longer we wait, the less likely our friends are alive."

”I know a little bit about most things, but I have no clue about engineering,” the little gnome grumbled. ”I should have paid more attention to all the other gnomes!”

"Ooh, ooh, I know a few engineering tricks," Nina pipes up. "Inky and I can go take a look at the lift and see if there's anything we can do to help! If nothing else, maybe I can help out with the carpentry parts."

During the journey Aeliah has discovered everyone except Pai can speak Elven.

Desperately afraid her savage Taldane accent will draw attention to the party, she speaks quietly in Elven, with her hand on Pai’s shoulder to show she is not deliberately excluding her, while hoping someone will translate for the gnome.

“An rogha é eitilt síos an seafta? Tá dhá scrolla agus dhá phota agam le cur le duine ar bith nach féidir leo eitilt leo féin.”

“Nó ar cheart dúinn níos mó faisnéise a fháil timpeall an champa ar dtús agus cuidiú le cosaint i gcoinne ionsaí eile a d’fhéadfadh a morlock ann? Ar chóir dúinn scoilt suas nó cuairt a thabhairt ar gach láthair mar ghrúpa?”

“Is áiteanna soiléire iad sóisialú agus cuidiú leis an ardaitheoir. N’fheadar an bhféadfainn cuidiú leis an iarracht innealtóireachta i bhfoirm fiáin?”

A few armigers are gathered around the broken lift, supervised by a masked Signifer.

"If you can help with the repairs, that would be welcome" says the Signifer. "Though in truth, it is more of a rebuild. Those morlocks are less stupid than they appear: they know the importance of this machine and they tore it apart. Fortunately we have raw materials." She indicates the storeroom close by.

You can certainly use Knowledge (engineering) to help out. Some Craft skills might also be useful - Carpentry included. Only one roll is needed, but you can decide who leads your efforts and other PCs can Aid. I don't think any Wildshapes would be particularly helpful though.

"Okay, let me have a look and see what we can do," Nina nods as she rolls up her sleeves. After considering her options for a few moments, she decides to simply offer her own experience as a carpenter to help the process along.

Craft: Carpentry: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20

Thinking it unlikely anyone not under fire would do woodwork in plate armor, Aeliah finds an out of the way location to remove and stow her mock armor.

She goes to work wearing a black silken catsuit, black cargo shorts and combat boots, along with a black balaclava and neck-gaiter to maintain some menace as an Armiger Signifier of the Rack.

The druidess spends most of her time hefting wood and marking out patterns to Nina’s directions with short sharp queries and acknowledgements in Elven:

❧ Ceart go leor?
❧ Var go leor?
❧ Smaoinigh air sin.
❧ Tuigim!

untrained Craft (carpentry) to aid: 1d20 ⇒ 18

Daedîn smiles as Aeliah speaks Elven and just whispers back, "For now, m'Lady, we'll just follow Nina's lead...good to have options though as I pretty much suck at carpentry..."

Untrained Carpentry Aid: 1d20 ⇒ 15

Nina's expertise with wood proves invaluable, and she's able to direct armiger (and Pathfinder) work crews to good effect. But the Signifer was right, the lift needs rebuilding. Together you will substantially cut down the time it would have taken the Hellknights on their own, but there's still a couple of days' hard work ahead. You will still have time to explore the fort though.
