The White Rose Duelist |
White Rose converts her traveler's any-tool into a clothespin and uses it to hold her nose shut as she enters.
Perception: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (5) - 2 = 3
Piotr the Wolf |
Piotr stomps on a carrion roach then glances around.
"This is no winery anymore."
He sniffs the pungent air then cringes from the awful smell.
"Follow me."
Drawing his blade, he cautiously moves up the steps being as quiet as possible.
Stealth: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (3) - 2 = 1
Hopefully, the clanking of his armor and his snarling as he moves up the steps isn't heard over the din of the bubbling vats above.
Awesome.
GM Otha |
Piotr leads the party upstairs…while his armor does indeed clank, the hissing from the vats is still quite loud…
The stench and humidity in the air here is cloying and choking. There is no proper floor in this room, only a series of five-footwide middenstone walkways passing along and over a series of pits ten feet below. The ground is obscured by a layer of foul-smelling, bubbling water through which a tangle of violet middenstone pipes weave. Numerous huge metal cauldrons containing a nasty, bubbling violet sludge simmer in the pits, each vat cradled in a nest of steaming pipes. Above, the open ceiling is a tangle of timbers, ropes, chains, and pulleys, many bearing hooks sized for the rings around the cauldron rims below. Ropes and slippery ladders descend into the morass below every five feet along the edges of the slippery walkways, while to the north is a warehouse containing bins of coal, barrels, cages, and other supplies. Beyond this, a huge steaming furnace churns and roars under an upraised observation deck.
Everyone will need to make a DC15 Fort save or be sickened for as long as you’re in the room…and every round you’re in this room, you’ll have to make another (unless you’ve failed a previous check, you can only get sick once). White Rose Duelist gets a +4 bonus to her save for using the anytool to pinch her nose shut…
You see what appear to be 4 workers below; four in the northern part of the room (two feeding coal into the furnace while the other two work the pumps that keep hot water circulating through the pipes), and the other four lumber about in the pit below, moving from cauldron to cauldron and stirring the contents with iron rods.
Crossing the area with the vats is not easy. The walkways are slippery, and anyone who moves along them at faster than half speed must make an Acrobatics check to avoid falling prone; failing by 5 or more means a character slips and falls into the pit below. Those moving at full speed have a –5 penalty to the check.
Party Status:
Elena (-3)
Piotr the Wolf |
Piotr moves slowly and carefully along the slippery catwalk above the vats. Gagging from the foul odor, he tries to keep from getting ill.
Fortitude: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
He takes a look around.
Knowledge (religion): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
Dammit.
And doesn't notice anything that would cause him to recall matters of the divine powers.
Elena Endari |
Elena smells the pungent odor from outside the room and drinks her soothe syrup (+5 vs sickened or nauseated). Automatically passes the check, following Piotr inside.
"Careful walking here," she warns the others.
Acrobatics (+2 tumble): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12
K.Religion: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
GM Otha |
As you move along the flooring above the vats, the zombies spot you, groan, and start climbing up...
Piotr: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16
Elena: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Zylencia: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Piotr the Wolf |
"Zombies."
Piotr snarls, now noticing what the creatures are as they move closer.
He moves slowly past the "T" junction ahead of him then turns to nod at Elena as he draws his blade.
"We'll hold them off here."
He swiftly blesses himself with a shield of faith to surround him. He readies to strike with his blade if any zombies get near.
+1 nodachi & PA: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
slashing: 1d10 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Aatish |
Aatish sees that this situation is dangerous!
She starts casting produce flame on the red zombie creature.

Aatish |
Sorry, forgot Fort save!
fort : 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
GM Otha |
Everyone withstands the smell this round but it still persists…
Everyone will need to roll DC15 Fort saves again next round as well. WRD, don’t forget to add +4 to your Fort save for your nose clip…
Piotr stands ready while the White Rose moves forward and sticks red with her rapier…but she notices it doesn’t do as much damage as it usually would…
And in the meantime, Elena seizes the initiative…
Aatish, not your turn yet, but we’ll keep the attack as is when your turn comes up after the zombies act…
COMBAT! Round 1 - The bold may post!
Elena (-3)
White Rose Duelist
Piotr
Zombies (red -3)
Zylencia

Elena Endari |
Knowing she can move forward with a bit more ease, Elena moves towards black with her longsword out. "Use blades if you can. They are resistant to bludgeoning and piercing weapons." She warns her friends.
Longsword +1 Furious attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
Slashing dmg: 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17
Piotr the Wolf |
Piotr cocks a furry eyebrow as Elena darts past him.
"So much for holding them off here."
He then shrugs and looks for a zombie to take on.
GM Otha |
Elena's blade cuts the black zombie in two, both halves falling into the pit below...
As the other zombies move towards you, purple and pink charge forward to attack Elena and Zylencia, red takes a swipe at the White Rose...
Red Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Purple Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Pink Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
...and they all miss, albeit pink misses Elena by the narrowest of margins, it's rotting nails passing within millimeters of her face...
Aatish reacts by lighting up red, literally, and it too drops into the pit, a melty mess...
After Zylencia's attack, it'll be Round 2, and everyone will need to make another DC15 Fort Save
COMBAT! Round 1 - The bold may post!

Fortitude vs. DC 15: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
Instead of waiting for the zombie to come to him, Piotr advances towards the zombie in the green "Kiss Me, I'm Gozren" shirt.
He swings his blade wide and slashes sidewards at the undead.
+1 nodachi & PA: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

+1 Rapier: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 7 - 2 = 14
Piercing Damage: 1d6 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 - 2 = 2
GM Otha |
While Piotr barely misses green, a sickened White Rose manages to stab yellow but she discerns it did no significant damage as it usually would have…
Elena eviscerates pink with her sword, dropping yet another zombie…
Green, yellow, and blue attack…
Green slam: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
Yellow slam: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Blue slam: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Slashing dmg: 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 15
GM Otha |
As Zylencia moves up, Aatish’s flame strike misses wide by a hair…
You all hear a shrill shriek coming from the west!
Elena quickly dispatches blue, her blade slicing like butter through its putrid flesh…
Need more Fort saves ‘cept for Elena (already passed) and WRD (already sickened)

If that is somehow lethal, she will move 30 feet west.
GM Otha |
Piotr slashes thru green’s throat, nearly severing its head, and it drops into the vats…
White Rose again sick’s her zombie, but it does no damage…
Orange and yellow attack…
Orange slam: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23
Damage+Fort Save: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

You see a dark-skinned man, whom you assume can only be Keeper Myre, the same one Elena saw shrieking earlier, pull back the curtain, screaming, ”Die, you filthy mercenaries!” as he casts negative energy at each of you…

Piotr swiftly gets rid of his nausea with a casting of remove sickness on himself, then attempts to cut down the zombie in front of him so that he can catch up with Zylencia.

“Arghh!!!“
The White Rose Duelist |
Unable to help with the zombies and not at her best, White ROse moves carefully toward the curtain.
GM Otha |
Misread the feat; he has the range but can only target one person and he’ll target Zylencia as she is closest. Zylencia, this map is confusing; the curtain is elevated (it’ on a loft) so if you want to enter that area, you have to use the stairs on the NE part of the map…you can re-move if you so wish…
Zylencia feels the full effect of the negative energy blast but withstands the smell…
Piotr drops the last zombie, his nodachi slashing deep in its chest, taking out its rotting heart…

“BURN! Yes!!!!!“ she shouts again.
GM Otha |
Aatish, you can’t see the Keeper as the curtain is closed…doesn’t matter in the long run as your attack would’ve missed…however, you may switch your action to a move if you wish…
Zylencia launches a devastating attack on the Keeper, her blade slicing deeply into the man twice. Keeper Myre shrieks loudly, his eyes delirious, yelling, ”It’s all Crove’s fault! I can hear it coming! Kill me before it gets me!”
His eyes go wild as he murmurs, ”But I’ll take you with me if I can…misery loves company…”
He casts in a way to avoid any retribution, spraying Zylencia with negative energy…
