PFS1 - #10-04: Reaver's Roar - Gameday X - GM Nowruz (Inactive)

Game Master noral

P:Soldier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
Doing a quick assessment of the orcs equipment and experience, Lorian started to try calming them down before the party wiped the floor with them. "Hold on a moment, we are both stuck in here. Maybe we can talk. he said.
diplomacy: 1d20 + 32 ⇒ (16) + 32 = 48

Klaus stands stoically behind Inga, alert for any threats from the orcs.
Inga looks for any insignia or markings to identify which tribe the orcs are from.
Perception: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (11) + 16 = 27

Before speaking, she glances at the papers strewn about.
Know: Religion: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24

Ahh, I did not describe the orcs but I thought the pictures made clear that this is not the Orc Sun tribe. :-D

You immediately see that these orcs have no intention to cooperate and Inga realizes very fast that this is not Ulrich's tribe but the vicious orcs that have been terrorizing the human settlements in this area!

Round 1

Elby
Rallas
Ajax
Ara
Leinad
Lorian
Inga
Klaus

Orcs

Bold can go!

"And this is why I left home."

Elby gives one a clout on the head, hammer style.

+1 Impact Adamantine Lucerne Hammer, Power Attack, Nonlethal, vs. Lower Blue: 1d20 + 16 - 4 ⇒ (13) + 16 - 4 = 25
Bludgeoning Damage, Nonlethal: 3d6 + 10 + 9 ⇒ (3, 3, 4) + 10 + 9 = 29

Leinad lets loose his first shaft at the orc closest to Lorian (green), trusting the bright flash to blind the orc long enough for him to be safe.

Deadly-Aim: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (20) + 17 = 37
Damage+blind: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

He then steps forward to peek through the door, smites the orc down the hall (purple) and lets loose the rest of his arrows.

Deadly-Smite: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (18) + 20 = 38
Damage+blind: 1d6 + 19 ⇒ (5) + 19 = 24
Deadly-Smite-vs-blind: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (20) + 15 = 35
Damage: 1d6 + 19 ⇒ (5) + 19 = 24
Deadly-Smite-vs-blind-confirmation: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (18) + 15 = 33
Damage: 2d6 + 38 ⇒ (3, 5) + 38 = 46

Deadly-confirmation-on-green: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (10) + 17 = 27
Damage: 2d6 + 16 ⇒ (5, 5) + 16 = 26
Didn't notice the first crit

Elby takes a moment to nod in appreciation at Leinad's marksmanship.

Can we get an update on who is alive and who is dead?

Inga, hearing several orcs grunting and drawing their weapons, weaves arcane symbols in the air and mutters an incantation.
All of her allies feel themselves moving faster.
(cast Haste).

"If any of you go in there, shout back how many you see and their position, if at all possible. It will help Klaus know where to attack when he passes through the wall."

Ugh. Never got to buff beforehand.

Haste is up. 10 rounds.

"You dare to defile this sacred temple?" Lorian yelled "We gave you a chance to talk and settle this without bloodshed. So be it. Charge my friends, sweep them from this holy ground! he added stepping into the room as he drew out the rapier.

"Klaus, they are located..."

Intimidate: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (19) + 20 = 39
Standard: Intimidate the toughest one still alive.
Move: Sound the charge +1 competence bonus to attack and damage rolls. Charging allies increase their speed by 5 feet times the battle herald's inspiring command bonus (+1).

Can we get an update on who is alive and who is dead?

Unless they're very weak, the only likely dead one is purple with 94 damage (assumption). Blue and Green probably hit for 29-35, the latter probably blind. Yellow and Red untouched behind the bookcase.

Rallas darts inbetween his friends nimbly as he brings his blade down with a grunt on the red robed orc.

power attack, haste, lorian bonus: 1d20 + 16 + 1 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (5) + 16 + 1 + 1 - 3 = 202d8 + 9 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (1, 4) + 9 + 9 + 1 = 245d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 5, 2, 4) = 18

on phone...can someone move me please? ty...AC is e1 rught now...font bonus plus the haste

Elby steps in and hits the orc with the blue armor right in the chest!

@Leinad: All except of blue and purple currently have cover so I will direct your first shot to blue.

Suddenly, Elby sees that Leinad's arrow hits the orc's temple and the orc is very wounded.

Blue at -64

The next arrows that Leinad shoots at the Orc in purple armor are as precise and the orc drops from the piercing wounds in his chest!

Rallas moves forward and severely wounds the flatfooted orc in red armor with his slashing blade.

Red at -18

Inga hastes you and Lorian intimidates the orc in green armor and and encourages you all!

Leinad is in the lower left corner of the room where Inga is. He only had Line of Sight to green. (Lorian hadn't moved yet, btw).

Leinad has line of sight to Purple from the upper left corner of his current square (ranged uses one corner to determine cover). I think he had line of sight to Green from either upper corner of the square he stepped from (one to the right/north), but Blue's fine too - it all works out.

Also, Rallas did 42 (24 + 18 sneak) to Red.

Leinad takes a deep breathe as these fearsome orcs get their footing and start to retaliate.

Thanks!
Buff: Sound the charge +1 competence bonus to attack and damage rolls. Charging allies increase their speed by 5 feet times the battle herald's inspiring command bonus (+1).

Round 1

Elby
Rallas
Leinad
Lorian
Inga
Ajax
Ara
Klaus

Orc, blue, -35, -29nl
Orc, purple, dying
Orc, green, shaken
Orc, yellow
Orc, red, -42

Bold can go!

Leinad, you don't have line of sight to purple. If you draw a line from any of your square's corners, the only line that doesn't pass through a wall is the corner in your upper right to the green orc's upper right corner. I drew a red line on the map. But, I'm not the GM. If you took down purple, even better!

If Purple's actually "dying", then he's probably still standing from Ferocity fyi (and blind still). Shifting to the square in front of the door to make the visualization easier - no change in soft cover for me if I'd waited.

With quickened speed, Klaus moves through the northern wall into the main cathedral, then passes through the door to his left. He arrives next to Rallas, where two orcs stand in front.
Klaus snarls menacingly at the orc wearing red face paint.
He then throws a powerful fist into the orc's chest.
Ectoplasmic Slam & Vital Strike: 1d20 + 13 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 13 + 1 = 16
Pow!: 4d8 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (8, 8, 6, 6) + 5 + 1 = 34

Inga moves into the room behind Elby.
(Inga didn't take a move action on her turn).

Not exactly sure what the buffs that are going. I heard something about Fury bonus, some Sacred Bonus, and Sound the Charge? Don't know which stack with what.

Ajax takes a step closer and using his superior targeting ability Improved Precise Shot He unloads on blue.

Main Attack wMany Shot, Rapid Shot, Charge: 1d20 + 18 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 18 - 2 + 1 = 35 Damage w Many Shot: 2d8 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (5, 7) + 10 + 2 = 24

If Blue goes down, Ajax switches to Green

1d1d20 + 18 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 18 - 2 + 1 = 23 Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Iterative 2: 1d20 + 13 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 13 - 2 + 1 = 15 Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Iterative 3: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 8 - 2 + 1 = 18 Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Ajax then orders Ara to Spring Attack (mv 50) green.

Spring attack vs Green wSoC: 1d20 + 15 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 15 + 1 = 32 Damage: 1d4 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 1 = 12

Trip: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (20) + 16 = 36

Buffs:
- Sound the Charge: +1 competence to atk/dmg
- Haste: +1 (haste) to atk/reflex/ac
- Sacred: +3 sacred to ac/saves
- (not activated?) Fury: +2 untyped to melee atk, -2 to AC

Okay, I didn't add Haste, and I guess I should have an extra Haste attack which I'll make now. Don't know if Ara got hit with Haste

Haste attack vs Green: 1d20 + 18 - 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 18 - 2 + 1 + 1 = 33 Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Yeah, you got hit with haste when we were all bunched together at first.

For clarification: The dying orc in purple is still staggered because of ferocity. I turned their icon a little so that you see that visually.

Klaus' momentum unfortunately leads him to miss the vital areas that he was targeting!

Ajax starts to shoot and the orc in blue armor is hit hard after the first double shot but he is still up because he is full of ferocity! But the second shot takes him down!

The next two shots all hit the ground but the final shot pierces the orc in green armor's shoulder! The same orce also taken and pulled to the ground by Ara!

~

You all suddenly see that the orcs start to grow stronger and rage fills their eyes ... they shout at you!

The orc in purple armor attacks ... the one in yellow armor moves and swings ... their battle axes tear into Klaus' ectoplasmic form!!

battle axes, rage, light sensitivity: 1d20 + 14 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (17) + 14 + 2 - 1 = 321d8 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11
battle axes, rage, light sensitivity: 1d20 + 14 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (18) + 14 + 2 - 1 = 331d8 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

~

The orcs in red and green armor step back, take a net and throw it on Rallas and Lorian respectively! Both of the Pathfinders are entangled!

net ranged touch Rallas : 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

net ranged touch Lorian, shaken : 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (18) + 6 - 2 = 22

An entangled creature takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls and a –4 penalty to Dexterity, can move at only half speed, and cannot charge or run. If you control the trailing rope by succeeding at an opposed Strength check while holding it, the entangled creature can move only within the limits that the rope allows. An entangled creature can escape with a successful DC 20 Escape Artist check (a full-round action). The net has 5 hit points and can be burst with a successful DC 25 Strength check (also a full-round action). If the entangled creature attempts to cast a spell, it must succeed at a concentration check with a DC of 15 + the spell’s level or be unable to cast the spell.

Round 2

Elby
Rallas, entangled

Orc, purple, dying, staggered
Orc, green, shaken, -24

Bold can go!

The others did enough damage to kill Blue despite Elby's 29 nonlethal?

Elby advances into the room and tries to take down Green.

+1 Impact Adamantine Lucerne Hammer, Power Attack, Nonlethal: 1d20 + 16 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 16 - 4 + 1 = 24
Bludgeoning Damage, Nonlethal: 3d6 + 10 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (4, 4, 3) + 10 + 9 + 1 = 31

ugh...24 just hits my touch..if haste was untyped, it would have missed...

Rallas curses a bit as he moves forward and lashes out with his blade at the orc with the red armour.

attack1: 1d20 + 16 - 2 - 22 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 16 - 2 - 22 + 1 = 62d8 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (3, 8) + 7 - 2 = 16
attack2: 1d20 + 11 - 2 - 21 ⇒ (19) + 11 - 2 - 21 = 72d8 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (4, 6) + 7 - 2 = 15
hasted: 1d20 + 16 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 16 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 222d8 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (2, 4) + 7 - 2 = 11

crit?: 1d2 + 11 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 11 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 92d8 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (3, 5) + 7 - 2 = 13

@Elby: Yes, the nonlethal at some time turns into lethal if he effectively goes up to his negative con which was only -12 before rage. :-/
@Rallas: Can you add the sacred bonus to your tag line! Because this missed you then. :-)

Elby again shakes one of the orcs’ bones with her hammer!

Rallas is not entangled as he can move away in the last second and then he starts his dance of blade strikes and cuts the orc open! But he is still standing!

Round 2

Elby
Rallas

Leinad
Lorian, entangled
Inga

Bold can go!

ugh...thought i edited it in...AC/T/FF is 30/24/23....the +1 from hast is a dodge, and I already have a +1 from the dodge feat, so it doesn't stack, so the net would hit...17 base, +4 from shield and the +3 from the Sacred bonus...24 hits

ugh...thought i edited it in...AC/T/FF is 30/24/23....the +1 from hast is a dodge, and I already have a +1 from the dodge feat, so it doesn't stack, so the net would hit...17 base, +4 from shield and the +3 from the Sacred bonus...24 hits

All dodge bonuses stack, Rallas.

Rapier vs net: 1d20 + 12 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 12 - 2 + 1 = 251d6 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 1 = 12
The net might have been useful for the orc, if Lorian was not able to slash it open with the sharp tip of the rapier as started to envelope him. Stepping forward, he thrust the rapier at the orc.

Rapier vs Green: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 1 = 101d6 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 5 + 1 = 7
Rapier vs Green Haste: 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 12 + 1 = 211d6 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 1 = 8

Klaus has DR 5/slashing & magic, btw. So he may have taken 5 less damage from each of the orcs' axes if they're not magical.

Klaus roars in the face of the orc wearing yellow and swings hastily into his chest and face.
Activate fury as a swift then deactivate as a free action at end of turn.
Ectoplasmic Slam, PA, IC, haste, fury: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 10 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 20
Slam & IC: 2d8 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (2, 5) + 11 + 1 = 19

Ectoplasmic Slam, PA, IC, haste, fury: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 10 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 18
Slam & IC: 2d8 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (3, 3) + 11 + 1 = 18

Ectoplasmic Slam, PA, IC, haste, fury: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 10 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 27
Slam & IC: 2d8 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (8, 1) + 11 + 1 = 21

He takes a five foot hop back.
"There's one around the bookshelf near me, Inga, and one in front of Rallas!"
Klaus relays to Inga.
"Time to have some fun with that confusion enchantment of yours!"

A mischievous smile crosses Inga's face.
"Thank you, Klaus."
She points up at the ceiling where it meets the wall on the southern side. She mutters an incantation and a burst of confusing energy erupts near the orcs.
15' burst to get Yellow & Red, but not Rallas . I put a little blue dot on the grid intersection where Inga targets the spell on the ceiling.

When Ajax hears Inga talking about Confusion, knowing something about spellcraft, Ajax offers some friendly advice"Confusion is not so good here. Once we attack the victims, they will no longer be confused about who to attack."

Ajax takes a step closer then focuses on the Orc (green) in front of Lorian
Main Attack wMany Shot, Rapid Shot, Precise Shot, SoC,Haste: 1d20 + 18 - 2 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 18 - 2 + 3 = 33 Damage w Many Shot, PS, SoC: 2d8 + 10 + 4 ⇒ (1, 5) + 10 + 4 = 20

Ajax will stop firing if/when Green falls.

Rapid Shot wRS, SoC, PS, Haste: 1d20 + 18 - 2 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 18 - 2 + 3 = 23 Damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10
Haste wRS, SoC, PS, Haste: 1d20 + 18 - 2 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 18 - 2 + 3 = 21 Damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Iterative 2: 1d20 + 13 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 13 - 2 + 1 = 17 Damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Iterative 3: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 8 - 2 + 1 = 9 Damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

If Green is not down, Ajax will order Ara to Vital Strike. If Green is down and Lorian is trapped, Ajax can have Ara use Break Out

huh...then i reckon the net misses...so each hit deals 2 more damage...and the crit 2 more aswell..i thought dodge didnt stack...man...you'd think i would get the rules down pat after all this time...lol...ac/T/FF is 31/25/24 then...i feel like uch a noob...

@Rallas your crit confirmation was a 1d2 instead of 1d20. Might want to reroll that :)

@Rallas you also subtracted 22 and 21 from your first two attacks. I assume that was a mistake?

@Ajax...my man...nice catch...missed that earlier...hadn't had much coffee then...lol

crit: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 11 + 1 = 182d8 + 7 ⇒ (3, 7) + 7 = 17

Retconning my last post about casting confusion. Trying to figure out what to do. Is there any way Inga can help Lorian get out of the net? Escape Artist to Aid check?

Inga strides along the wall while pulling out her wand of protection from evil. She gets behind Lorian and taps him with the wand.
(+2 deflection to AC & +2 resistance bonus to saves).

Apologies for the delay!
Leinad pops one more arrow down the hall at the purple-clad orc with the last of his smite. (Klaus won't provide any cover).

Deadly-Smite-Haste: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (14) + 26 = 40
Damage: 1d6 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 20 = 23

He then pops around the corner to pepper green, most of the arrows flying wide. (Lorian won't provide any cover).

Deadly-1st: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (1) + 18 = 19 *wince*
Damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
Deadly-2nd: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17
Damage+Dazzle: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
Deadly-3rd: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
Damage+Dazzle: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

Rallas not being hampered by the net actually increased his accuracy and the orc in red armor drops dead because of the massive bleeding!

Lorian destroys the net but trips and cannot harm the orc in front of him.

@Klaus: Yes, the battle axes are magical.
@Inga: Lorian is already free as he destroyed the net with his weapon.

Klaus first and last ectoplasmic strike disturb the orc in yellow armor deep in his bowels!

Ajax needs all of his arrow shots to drop the orc in green armor with lots of nice holes!

Leinad's arrow proves so accurate that it hits the orc in purple armor right in the throat and kills him immediately.

Green is down but you have line of sight to yellow with cover.

The last arrow Leinad shoots hits the shoulder of the last remaining orc!

Round 2

Elby
Rallas

Leinad
Lorian
Inga
Ajax
Ara
Klaus, -24

Orc, blue, unconscious
Orc, purple, dead
Orc, green, unconscious

Orc, red, dead

Bold can go!

Ajax orders Ara to be on guard Total Defense.

"I'm sure you all can take down that last one."
Inga says, confident in her teammates abilities.
Inga will delay.

The orc in yellow armor is glad that he does have to face Ara and steps towards Klaus but his axe cannot penetrate the phantom's defenses!

Primary battle axes, rage, light sensitivity: 1d20 + 14 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (7) + 14 + 2 - 1 = 221d8 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
iterative battle axes, rage, light sensitivity: 1d20 + 14 + 2 - 5 - 1 ⇒ (7) + 14 + 2 - 5 - 1 = 171d8 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

You are all up!

Elby double moves into range of Yellow.

Ajax steps into the room and moves next to Inga. Using his improved precision, Ajax targets the orc.

Longbow wHaste Precise Shot SoC: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (18) + 21 = 39 Damage w SoC Precise Shot: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

Elby double moves into range of Yellow.

If Elba has Haste, I think that's like +30 feet or double your normal move, correct?

Klaus throws a left uppercut, then a right hook, and finishes with a quickened elbow into the orc's jaw.
Activate fury as a swift then deactivate as a free action at end of turn.

Pow! & Sound the Charge: 2d8 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (6, 7) + 11 + 1 = 25

He then takes a hop backwards.

Jeez. Klaus' attacks have been terrible this entire scenario.

How am I supposed to remember haste if it is only mentioned in every other post?

+1 Impact Adamantine Lucerne Hammer, Power Attack, Nonlethal, Haste: 1d20 + 16 - 4 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 16 - 4 + 1 + 1 = 23
Bludgeoning Damage, Nonlethal: 3d6 + 10 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (1, 5, 6) + 10 + 9 + 1 = 32

Sorry, I only put it in Inga's combat posts to let me know it's active and how many rounds are left. Putting it in your header bar under your "active conditions" would be a good way to remember it.

Shove over, Klaus... Rallas says as he sneaks by the phantom and slashes and hacks at the orc with a flurry of steel.

attack1: 1d20 + 16 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (15) + 16 + 1 - 3 = 292d8 + 7 + 9 ⇒ (3, 2) + 7 + 9 = 21

crit?: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (7) + 11 + 1 - 3 = 162d8 + 7 + 9 ⇒ (4, 4) + 7 + 9 = 24

You all move in and the onslaught is too much for the poor orc!

And his ferocity is not enough to prevent unconsciousness because of Elby's kindness to only strike with the flat side of her hammer!

Combat over.

You search the orcs’ bodies.

5 times the below:
Combat Gear potions of cure moderate wounds (2); Other Gear
+1 breastplate, +1 battleaxe, +1 cloak of resistance, mwk net, 70 gp

Ajax grabs a batteaxe, his own melee weapon lacking any enchantment, and one potion, of the ten, of CMW.
