[Outpost V, PF2/Farol] #3-10 Delve the Pallid Depths (Inactive)

Game Master Farol

”Screech think author was not nice person. Use captives for labor, that not right. She must be duergar, and was raiding dwarfie tombs.” Screech thinks out loud, almost like he doesn’t have an inner voice!

”Me wonder, if maybe dwarfies have problems like in Osirion when dead are disturbed, or maybe like what happened in Lastwall?”

You discuss the translation and its meaning, wondering if the duergars survived or not, as well as their slaves.

You leave their quarters into a long and wide corridor. It is lined with several sconces containing everburning torches, making this the most litten portion of the underground that you've been to.

To the east lies a large altar topped by a massive warhammer intricately carved out of stone. Ancient magic causes flames to flicker along the length of the warhammer, much like an everburning torch. From where you are you can see that altar contains carved symbols and phrases that could be read from closer distance. To the other side the corridor passes into natural caves where there is the path described in the journal.

To the south, there seems to be a large chamber.

Where to?

Harsk turns to the party.

"Let's check south?"

Zenith looks to the stars, but noticeably sighs when they are not to be seen. I hope we don't have to sleep in here... Zenith thinks to themself.

"Sure, south."

Rapier pointed to the ceiling, Don Jurri thrusts himself stridently forward.

"To the South, then!"

”Seems as good a way as any!” agrees Screech.

”Always searching in the dark,
Spelunking ruins on a lark,
We delve into the pallid cave,
Hope we find a kicking rave!”

Yeah head into the room, it is roughly empty, some time ago the floor was cleared from any debris and in the corner, there is a chest and next to it a pile of clothing and other personal items.

Don Jurri steps closer to investigate chest when...

First is the sounds, of bones scratching the floor, then you see that in the doors that you just came through stands a giant undead beetle, with two large horns. It is big and ugly. You look to the other entrance and see an undead duergar next to second of those beast. But the real surprise is that within the heap of clothes there was a duergar as well, an undead one who strikes at Don Jurri

Longsword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
Damage, slashing: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8 Despite parry, hit -8

The sword finds a weak spot in Don Jurris defense, spilling some blood.

Then the undead raises his shield.

The beetle charges at Harsk.

Terryfing charge@Harsk: 1d20 + 12 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 12 + 4 = 19
Damage: 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

But Harsk ends up in between of huge horns, completely safe. The beetle strikes again

Horn@Harsk, map(agile): 1d20 + 12 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 12 - 4 = 18
Damage: 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

But misses again.

"Well I never!" Don Jurri exclaims at being swiftly stabbed "Good show you sack of bones - let us fence then - we'll see if you are better than your friend!" our chivalric hero leaves a false opening for the duergar undead "If you best me, I will return to you your journal!" He tiptoes with agility - clacking his high-heeled boots against the stone ground - and makes two quick swishes with his long thin blade!

Ugh, I could swear that I updated the thread yesterday. Here we go again ;)

Harsk grabs his axe in two hands and swings. Only his first attack connects, but he notices that the damage is a bit less than it should be. Hit and miss -7

Tandang moves and strikes with his staff Bonk is the sound of wood hitting bones. But his strike leaves behind exactly the right amount of damage. Hit -5

Don Jurri prepares for the attack and then feints the undead. Faint and panache.

But despite his effort, his attack hits the undead's shield. Miss

Screech does not like the idea of having an undead beetle right next to him. He starts by trying to inspire the team.

"Stinkie buggies in the dark,

Screech the bard no want to die,
So this beetle has to fry!"

As if offended in his upper sensibility "Well - that is not a goblin's toy!" watching as Screech, too, draws a rapier (perhaps he hadn't noticed it before) and checking against some obscure moral code "Mister Smee! Is that allowed?"

From his hiding place, off-screen, "Perfectly fine sir" taking a breath, wincing just a little, before elaborating "As of recent fashion, many different races - including the small but mighty goblin - have taken up the civil mantle of personhood"

He clears his throat, eager not to offend his master, and believing he has succeeded due to clever word choice, immediately dips back into his hiding place, off-screen...

Ithuriel sends an electric arc at the bug and undead warrior.

Reflex save Yellow, DC19: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
Reflex save Blue, DC19: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

Bipedal undead dodges the lightning with great agility, but the bug is smacked with the full force of it. Yet it seems impacted less than it should. blue -4

Screech inspires others then grabs his rapier and stabs the bug. He hits but the rapier gets between the bones and does less damage. Hit blue -4

Zenith tumbles through the undead, but the undead durgard is quick and slashes at him

Lognsword@Zenith: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12

But Misses. Zenith comes back with a very well-aimed attack of his own. And the skeleton falls to the ground motionless. Crit -29 and yellow is dead.

Then he tumbles through the beetle.

You can see that some of the wounds from the red beetle heal.
They look at Tandrang and Harsk closeby and strike them with their two horns

The beetle this time aims their strike right, it digs into Tandang and Horsk with one swift motion.

The feint throws the undead off, and both of his attacks horribly miss. Don Jurri tries to strike back but he also miss.

Then the undead raises their shield.

Turning his head back to observe the team surrounded, but holding off the circular frontline with competence, he rallies them "Look alive, men! We've got them Inscribed! Hold your lines and let the stronger team prevail!"

I will take your advice of not using shield block.

"AGHHH!" Tandang screams as the beetle hits him with its sweeping horn. He immediately limps away after he is badly injured by the ugly beetle and goes beside Ithuriel. He then drops his weapon to draw the scroll of heal and casts it onto himself by sending it afloat and reading its contents. The scroll dissolves into a golden glitter dust that swirls around him, being absorbed by his body, restoring some of his vitality.

"That. Hurts. A. Lot." he says with emphasis on every word.

Open your mouth and munch, munch that. You will live, yes. We'll not die, not here.” he baby-talks to Harsk as he feeds him the potion.

Screech looks confused by Don Jurri. 'Longshanks must have gotten into bad keg of cider apples.' he thinks.

Knowing his quite fashionable rapier would not do much against the skeleton, he chooses to move up by Zenith and cast his "chuck a rock song". "Stupid skellie made of bone,

Zenith moves towards the skeleton and punches them with a gauntlet. The bones roll on the floor and do not heal themselves. Then they take a step towards beetle. Hit and kill

Ithuriel lays his hands on Harsk and heals him +12 HP and +2 to AC, then he draws a wand.

Screech chucks rock with his mind, but misses.

The beetle heals some of the damage and strikes at

Whom: 1-Harsk, 2-Zenith: 1d2 ⇒ 1

He goes for the dwarf

Only the first strike hits, and it is Ithuriel intervention that saves Harsk from being pierced. LoH bonus made it hit and not crit. Harsk -9

"Just one to go..." Zenith says through their teeth as they try to grab the boney legs to trip the creature and then pummel it. Afterwards, Zenith tries to tumble through while they recover.

With his free hand, Don Jurri pokes a finger into his ear, partially blocking out the music "Mister Smee! - the incessant rhyming, droning mono-rythm, and high-pitched screeching are going to do me in, even as these beetles wont. I do hope you brought ear plugs!" his face contorted in pain, he leans the other side of his head against his shoulder, but soon discovers - to his utter horror! - that he is unable to dampen the sound with such a motion while also holding his rapier aloft...

From his hiding place, off-screen, "Let me look sir" taking a breath, wincing just a little, and scrounging desperately through his pockets, before finally "Turns out we left those at the mansion, sir, but perhaps I can come up with a solution once you are finished here..."

Unsure of the veracity of this claim, he clears his throat once more, and immediately dips back into his hiding place, off-screen...

Zenith tumbles through the bug and strikes him with fist, from the other side Screech sends a large rock hitting the creature in a vital spot. The creature falls to the ground strikes with Ithuriel electric arc. Hit, crit and arc are enough to kill the last foe.

Bones fall to the ground motionless, when you look around you see that those four enemies supplied enough bones to cover almost the whole chamber. You catch a breath and take a look at the chest which you wanted to open before the hell broke loose. In it you find personal items from different cultures and ancestries, you believe that they could have belonged to slaves captured by duergars.

Lah and berries would allow you to heal in 2 hours (number pulled from thin air), would you heal in that room? Or move somewhere? Where would you go next?

Harsk dusts himself off.

"Thanks all. That thing was tough! I need to get a club!"

"A brutish instrument indeed" responding to Harsk's remark while staring at his rapier's pommel...

...and dusting himself off "Well good people - shall we move along?"

Ithuriel goes from injured to injured taking care of their wounds. "Minor pests in the grand scheme of it all."

I am unsure where we have checked and not checked on the map.

I've added numerals to the map (1, 2 and 3) representing the sections that you can go and explore further. seems that Don Jurri proposes what i marked as 1, I need a second vote to move you forwards

Thanks!

Ithuriel trails behind Don Jurri, his staff, loudly thumping against the stone floor. It echoes among the chambers as he walks with the utmost confidence and not a care in the world seems to bother the angelic being.
