Wander the path (Inactive)

Game Master Daedeloth

Halafrin stops basking in the glow of his firey efficacy long enough to dispel the -daylight- magic.

I guess since we are awake we might as well begin the day's journey.

perception: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (17) + 19 = 36

Of course now that I'm thinking about how far this journey is I'm scratching my head and wondering WTF didn't I buy -phantom steed, communal-. Who let me play a wizard?!!

Nothing like a little bloodshed before dawn to get you all stretched out and ready for a good march! Builds character Hal.

perception: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (5) + 19 = 24

Garric? Chack?

Thanks for the heals Dwol. I appreciate it.

Do you want to track down the lair of the wolves?

If so,survival: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23

Me too!

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17

As tempting as that sounds Garric I think the less time we spend in these icy wastes the better. Let's get going.

Throughout the gloomy and frigid day the party continues on, occasionally Hal hears the howling of wolves. Halfway through the day the more or less barren tundra you have been traveling through gives way to a thin forest of trees covered in snow and ice.

Halafrin sniffs disdainfully-It's not much, but any trees are generally better than no trees at all. Certainly better than all these wintery wastes.

perception: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (19) + 19 = 38

Anything to defrost your frozen spirits is appreciated Hal. We are all suffering along the same as you.

Try to continue on the most direct path towards our destination.

survival: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22

-Dwol has the direction down!-

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21

The party proceeds trudging towards their goal through the snow. Hal and Garric hear occasional wolf howls. Night arrives quickly accompanied by more snow and colder temperatures.

for watch

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26

Thank the gods for the cloaks

for watch

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17

Agreed Chack. This is a tough slog, but it would be near impossible without the gift of the cloaks. The good news is that you and I both have a fair amount of 'fur'. Not sure how Garric and Hal are doing it. Plus Hal is about as meaty as a dry stick.

perception: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (5) + 19 = 24

I'm about as warm as one too.-Halafrin grumps.

perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30

The night passes as the howling of wolves gets noticeably closer to the group. Snow continues to steadily fall all night and there are about 6 inches of fresh snow as with more coming as the group starts out in the morning.

Wonder if those mangy dogs are tracking us, and if they are is someone putting them on our trail?

perception: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (6) + 19 = 25
survival: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11

Don't over think things Dwol; your mind sometimes wants to see the worst of everything. Wolves need to eat and we just happen to be walking on their kitchen table. I'm sure it's just nature in action.

perception: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (16) + 19 = 35
survival: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20

survival: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30

survival: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22

The party makes slow progress through the snow as the howls of the wolves become more frequent and appear to be closing in on the group as darkness falls.

If they want a fight I say let's give it to them good and hard. A little break from all this marching about.

Try and find a defensible spot that limits the vectors of incoming attack (secure the rear) and wait for any foes to arrive. Will do some casting etc. in prep if time permits (minute before expected battle).

The best you can do is put your backs to a tree about 5’ wide, but wolves could still come at you from pretty much any direction. There is no way to know if or when they will attack, they are out there in the dark and snow nearby. Visibility is barely 60’ even with darkvision or light due to the snowfall.

Party action.

Might as well build a big fire and be warm tonight. It's not like they don't know where we are.

Dwol sets about building as large a fire as he can sustain during the night placing it about 10' from the large tree to make it so foes have to come from just two directions unless they can get through a tree fo the fire.

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

I guess every storm cloud does have a silver lining; I do appreciate a good fire.

perception: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (7) + 19 = 26

Make a survival check to try to build a fire.

survival: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

-my rolls are s!**e-

Let me try

survival: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20

I have made FIRE!: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

by the power of Greyskull!: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Chack miraculously gets a fire started with some frozen branches but it’s very small and is mostly smoke with little flame or heat due to the poor fuel.

The group can now hear growling from what you guess is just beyond visual range.

Party action.

Halafrin casts -stoneskin- on Chack.

Dwol activates ~Angelic Bond~, shining with -continual flame- (as a torch) and providing +4 deflection/resistance bonuses as per -protection from evil- to everyone within 20' (doesn't stack with ring of pro and cloak or resist so probably only +3/+3 for most).

Cast Gravity Bow(now 45 charges) and Aspect of the Falcon.

Thanks, Halafrin, and you too Dwol. I feel more protected!

Garric gets gravity bow off but not aspect of the falcon when four snarling wolves rush in from out of the snowy darkness to attack:

Why wouldn’t crit be x3 for dwarven waraxe?

I copied the wrong one, yes it should be +11. Crit is x3 but I already rolled x1 for the 19 so the confirm should just be x2.

Three of the four wolves go down to hasted attacks of the group.
