[ACO] PFS2e 02-11: The Pathfinder Trials (P1) (Inactive)

Game Master UncleFroggy

"Jiggs. You alright?" She reaches for his belly, sees the wound, frowns, checks his hair and has to hold herself back. "Sorry. Just making sure. Did we kill that thing? I mean, defeat it in non-lethal combat? What happened?"

After the explanation she sighs. "Enjoy the dinner tonight. You know we're going to clean up whatever is happening out there."

Jiggo - Marcos allowed you to patch yourselves up. Either that or during the overnight stay at Caryg's manor you're able to make medicine checks to patch yourselves up. I'll just hand wave all that (like a Sorcerer once suggested).

Salonviel - unfortunately not as you were pretty much bundled into the carriage for Caryg's manor as soon as you got back from the Swords Trial. Does anyone in your party have some arrows they're willing to share?

"That was a difficult fight. A good object lesson. I am just happy it wasn't a serious one.. "

After enjoying a nice meal and then difficulty sleeping in a fancy bed, Sindy awakens from her rest on the hardwood floor, yawns and readies herself for breakfast.

"I wonder what our host was upset about last night.."

I don't know. He was rather secretive, and then he was out all night?

Ember grabs another scoop of breakfast.

That's ok. I'll just go with plan B again.

The dwarf takes a reasonable amount of food to break his fast and listens to what is being discussed.

You enjoy a delicious breakfast the next morning. As you finish, one of the valets informs you that the carriage is ready to leave, you hear a terrified scream coming from a sitting room by the foyer. Rushing over to investigate, you see a screaming servant being dragged under a chair, blood spraying everywhere as you hear the sound of rending flesh.

Wing Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 bludgeoning damage plus 1 good damage

◆ Stride into the room

◆◆ Cast Produce Flame

Attack roll for Produce Flame: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
Fire Damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Jiggo frowns as the servant is mulched. "Um... Let's destroy that thing."

Jiggo pulls out his staff. Salera skips into the room before raking into the chair. "Estes, get a little closer so we can flank this thing."

She motions Grallen in while running all the way around the thing to give him an easy flank.
stride x3

Salera skips into the room and tries to slash the chair but slips on the rug and nearly falls into a pile of cushions. Sindrailla runs in to flank the chair demon. Ember enters the room and sends a tiny fireball at it, but misses.

Grallen grabs his axe and moves up twice to the creature
[ooc[ damn dwarven stubby legs :) [/ooc]

Grallen, are you in a flank with Salera?

I think that was my intent

I think that was my intent

No worries. The token wasn't totally beside it so I wasn't sure.

Who: 1-Grallen 2-Salera 3-Estes 4-Sindrailla: 3d4 ⇒ (4, 2, 4) = 10

Suddenly a tendril a thick as a man's wrist lashes out and tries to club Sindrailla.

◆ Cast Shield

◆◆ Cast produce flame at the Chair demon
Attack with Produce Flame: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
Fire Damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

It won't stay still enough for me to hit!

The dwarf strikes at the demon with a two handed axe chop
1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20 -2 to AC for flank
1d12 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 slashing

Wing Damage: 1d6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 1 + 2 = 9 bludgeoning damage plus 1 good damage

Estes has no mod for combat??

Already edited it.

Sin grunts in pain. "Damn thing hits hard!"

She then tries to return the favor...
long sword: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16
S or P damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

And a second time...
long sword: 1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (13) + 9 - 5 = 17
S or P damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
athletics in case that hit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Not getting her sword stuck yet, she flails away once more..
long sword: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
S or P damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Sin grunts in pain. "Damn thing hits hard!"

Salera nods. "It's an easy method of assassination. Who checks their chairs for demon infestation, besides my mother?"

She rakes once.

Claw vs Flanking: 1d20 + 1 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 1 + 2 + 4 = 22
Slashing Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Jiggo decides to enter the room and almost loses his footing when the chair whaps Salera. "It's rude, that's what it is."

Heal: 1d8 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

Jiggo heals himself in the process.

Act Together giving Jiggo 3 actions and Salera 1 bonus action.

Salera Reflex: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Salera and Estes both swing at the Chair Demon and connect. Unfortunately, they are unable to escape the adhesive goo that coats the thing and get stuck. Grallen makes a two-handed swing at the chair and opens a ragged tear on the chair's upholstery. He manages to pull the axe out of the goo before it gets stuck.

"Hey! That HURT!! I'll get you for that!" the chair bellows.

Sindrailla swings at the chair thrice, hitting on the second attempt. She cleaves off a bit of the wood paneling and manages to pull her sword away before it can become attached. Ember, meanwhile tries to send more flame at the chair but misses. The chair looks at Ember and sticks out its tongue.

"What's the matter little one? Can't hit a chair that's bigger than you?"

Almost there, Pathfinders!

Sindy blinks.
"It's sassy too.."

”The chair can talk?!” Charlies says loudly to his surprise more than the fact that Estes is stucked in goo. ”That's crazier!”

Charlies boosts Estes again while Estes strikes the talking chair demon twice before he attempts to Escape

◆ Cast Shield

◆◆ Cast produce flame at the Chair demon
Attack with Produce Flame: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11
Fire Damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

This chair must be freaking Ember out.

The chair looks disdainfully at Ember trying to hit it with fire.

"Why don't you come closer, little one. It might be easier. Nyah nyah nyah!"

Jiggo casts >Stabilize< on Charlies, to save his life. "Hold on buddy. No way are we going to lose to a... chair."

Salera grunts, still stuck to the chair. "This is getting embarrassing..."

Bludgeoning Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 Add 1 good damage if the chair is vulnerable to good damage or is evil

"Jiggs, just... send me back home. I'm never gonna get out this."

Jiggo
◆◆◆ Act Together, giving Jiggo 2 actions and Salera 1 bonus action

Not again, he mutters as he feels every pain of every attack draining him before Charlies blacks out and Estes vanishes into a spectacle of golden dust.

I did not think of dismissing him! My bad,

Sin grimaces and tries to hit it again...
long sword: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27
S or P damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Striking a good blow she pulls on her sword...
athletics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

Lets out a few curses and pulls again...
athletics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Before disappearing, Salera manages to rake her tail across the chair's upholstery.

"Hey! Get back here! I'm not done with you yet!"

Sindrailla meanwhile, gouges out a piece of the chair, but her sword gets stuck.

Oops, sorry, I fell asleep before I posted here, I will do so shortly after I see if my question about sticky was answered

Okay, I think I got it

He slices at the chair demon again
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 -2 AC for being flanked
1d12 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14 slashing

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11 unsticky the sticky athletics

I am not sure what to do now that it is stuck

Grallen swings at the chair demon again and cleaves the backrest in half. The chair shudders and collapses in a heap on the floor. A short while later, anyone who was stuck to the chair becomes unstuck.

Combat Over!

You may take some time to patch yourselves up.

Jiggo juggles some flame in his hands, only to snuff out the smoke once the worst is over. "Alright Charlies, let's get you back up..."

Medicine: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Jiggo shrugs and pulls out his potion. "A reminder to thank the Pathfinder Society..."

Lesser Healing Potion: 1d8 ⇒ 8

"There ya go. Feeling better? I'm going to call Salera back."

Salera emerges from her cloud of smoke, flipping through a fashion journal. "Hmm? Oh, uh, I was checking it for sin."

He grabs his ax and tries to wipe off the goo.

I wonder how this happened, and where our host is? Is he safe?

Sin will try to patch herself up as well.
medicine: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
healing: 2d8 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4

"Hello? Anyone else around? We seem to have a... furniture issue. Hello? We should check..."
