GM_DBH's Curse Of The Crimson Throne
Game Master
DBH
The city of Korvosa has dark and deadly secrets. Those secrets are coming home to roost as some unlikely heroes are drawn into the underbelly in search of answers to their pasts.
Plague has come to Korvosa, and while the new queen and her advisors bicker over how to address the calamity, fear takes hold on the streets.
As the number of sick folk grows, people take desperate measures to avoid the plague, shutting themselves within their homes, shunning the infected, and even seeking escape from the city.
The disease is prevalent in Korvosa’s most impoverished areas, particularly Old Korvosa—blister-faced beggars and hacking common folk are visible on every corner.

Kayleigh shifts a bit and tries to thump the cultist before her. She lets out a sigh of relief when she notices Zahur starting to move again. Even though she connects with her target...it's still a pretty weak strike.
Gee...I thought I was pretty strong, at least for a woman. Maybe there's an unwritten rule that a healer's not supposed to cause serious harm to another living creature?
Kayleigh Fairwind mwk silver morningstar: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27 for bludgeoning, piercing, silver damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

I had a round skipped. Double move for the skipped round, then attack while in position this round.
Nobody knows what Vedika is doing while she's invisible, right up until she appears directly behind one of the enemies who's fighting Zahur.
Kukri attack, flanking: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 2 = 13 (Invisibility means he's flat-footed, but this likely still misses.)
Are you sure you want to do that?
Ariadne wounds Orange
Kayleigh grazes Purple Not a crit.
Vedika appears behind Purple, but misses.
The Zombies advance, Orangetakes a 5' step back and cast Hold person on Ariadne
Will save DC15 please Ariadne.
Purple swings at Zahur while he is held.
scythe Purple: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
damage: 2d4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 3) + 3 = 7
You were held, he hit you FF, now you are moving again.
Blue swings at Brigita
scythe Blue: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21 3X in a row?
Missing
Yellow decides to try and repeat Purples success. He casts Hold person on Kayleigh.
Will save DC15 please Kayleigh.
The door at the top of the stairs opens and a pallid man of some type likes at the fray with indifference. He then turns back and closes the door?
Arkminos.
Intense and pale as death, the somberly dressed man stands rigidly, his arms crossed over his chest , his eyes wide and intense, and his nose wrinkled in an expression of extreme distaste. Yellow teeth bared, his overly large incisors jut forward, not like those of a man, but of a filth-hungry vermin.
The party can now act!
Female Human Cleric of Milani (Merciful Healer) 8| hp -50- 59/59 (0 NL) | AC 20, t 12, ff 18 | Fort +7, Ref +6, Will +9 | Init +4 | Perc +3 | Spd 20 ft. | Channel Positive Energy 2/6 | Restorative Touch 7/7 | wand of CLW (46/50) | wand of CMW (18/50) | wand of spiritual weapon (45/50) | Conditions/Buffs: none
Kayleigh resista the spell. When she sees the strange man pop out of a room momentarily, she's not sure exactly what he is...but he's no wererat. She thumps purple a bit harder this time, and if he falls, she closes on yellow. (If not, she'll take another swing at purple, which I'll put in a spoiler.)
Kayleigh Fairwind Will Saving Throw: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 23
Kayleigh Fairwind Knowledge (religion) Check: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

Purple still stands even after Kayleigh thumps him.
Next?

Seeing her friend nearly engulfed in zombie's makes Brigita's hammer to alter course from the scythe wielder to the flesh eater, crushing its side with a brutal thunk.

Will(compulsion): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
Ariadne feels to commanding power of the spell attempt to take hold of every muscle in her body and focuses, the same defiance that had helped her survived Korvosa's dangerous streets, welling up form inside her to shrug off the magic like a heavy coat.
Roaring in defiance, she takes in the undead practically swarming her, effortlessly casting an intricate spell, an ominous hum emanating from her sword as blue energy dances along the blade. She lashes out with a deft strike at the zombie on her right, the blade biting in as the magic assaults what passes for its mind.
Concentration: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (12) + 16 = 28
Cold Iron masterwork Longsword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27
Cold Iron/slashing: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Chill touch Undead effect DC 15 Will save or flee as if panicked for 1d4 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11 rounds
"Focus on the cultists, I'll handle the undead!"
Are you sure you want to do that?
Brigita & Ariadne take out a Zombie each.
Vedika finishes off Purple.
Zahur can act this round!
Male N half-orc brawler (hinyasi) 8 | HP: 83/83 | AC: 22 (15 Tch, 18 Fl) | CMB: +13*, CMD: 27* | F: +11, R: +12, W: +6 | Init: +3 | Perc: +12, SM +12 | Speed 30ft | Active conditions: none.
