[Farol] PFS Troubles in Otari (Inactive)

Game Master Farol

Arity throws a clever remark, leaving the woman stoned in surprise Bon Mot success! Then she raises buckler and moves in

Flory raises shield of her own, moves closer and tries to frighten the creature. But even despite her being thrown away by Arity, she does not see Flory threatening. Intimidation failure

Mary moves in, grabs her rapier and strikes twice. She hits once, and it feels like stabbing a stone. Hit -6 due to resistance

Albrecht recognizes the creature as Gargoyle, they have resistance to physical damage, except specific types of metal (adamantine), they posses no weaknesses.

Woman raises from the ground and begins to fly about 3 ft high, from there she strikes Mary and then Arity

Jaws@Mary: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (16) + 13 = 29
Damage, piercing: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (5, 4) + 3 = 12

Claws@Arity: 1d20 + 13 - 4 ⇒ (7) + 13 - 4 = 16
Damage, slash: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (1, 5) + 3 = 9

Mary is hit with the jaws but the claws miss Arity. Mary -12

Soon after Mary moves next to the well, two oozy creatures drag their blobby bodies out of it.
Two enemies added, blue and yellow

Bonnie draws her sword, shields herself, and enters Arcane Stance.

Bonnie prepares for more foes to come. Albrecht tries to recognize the creatures

Albrecht recognizes them as sewer oozes, the same kind of creatures that they encountered in the smoking shack. Slow, resilient and immune to critical hits.

He sends an arrow that hits without much trouble. Blue -4

Mylos repositions grabs, his crossbow and shoots

The stone lady has resistance 5 to Piercing and probably Slashing as well. Bludgeoning? Maybe, maybe not. Regardless, it's going to take Mary a long time to take her down even if she crits every attack. Given the +13 to hit and 2d8+3 damage, Mary will go down long before that happens. Mylos may have to do the heavy work of generating damage on her with spells, or Bonnie with her fire damage.

Mary takes advantage of Arity's flanking to take one last jab at the stone lady before scurrying over to take on one of the oozes.

Action 1 (◆): Strike (+1 Rapier) with Thief Racket and Sneak Attack vs Flat-Footed Red woman.

Rapier Attack: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 9 + 1 = 22 vs Flat-Footed

”I’m gonna need some help chipping away at this rock-woman”

Albrecht calmly responds to Arity's request for aid.

"Working on it!"

devise a stratagem vs red: 1d20 ⇒ 12

"I'm not seeing much in the way of vulnerabilities though."

Yeah I know it's not my turn yet but I'd be taking this action at the start of my turn regardless.

◆ Devise a stratagem

Mary strikes Gargoyle and hits, but again her attack is resisted a bit Red -7

Then she moves, and gargoyle strikes at her with claws...

Aoo@Mary: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16
Damage, slashing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (6, 1) + 3 = 10 but misses. Gargoyle has AOO when flying.

Mary strikes on ooze, hitting them. Yellow -8 immune to precision

Flory strikes the creature with her claw, it feels like cutting gelatine. yellow -13

Then she shields herself. Arity raises her buckler and trikes twice. Only one of her strikes hits. Red -5

Albrecht prepares...

But gargoyle wasn't there to look pretty. She get herself back in shape. Concentrate action to finish bon mot, moves her wings to keep flying and strike at Arity

Jaws@Arity: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21
Damage, p: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (5, 5) + 3 = 13

That hits Arity -13

Claws miss Bonnie completely. Then she makes a strike of her own. She hits the gargoyle in the back, leaving a large bruise on the stone. Only a hit -13

Mylos empowers Albrecht's weapon, Who shots at the ooze, once hitting and once he is able to miss. Blue hit -7

Extra dice: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Then oozes hit back. Blue goes after Flory

Mary takes an oozy pseudopod across the face but manages to dodge the other two strikes. "Ew! He slimed me. I feel so funky." Mary keeps poking at the ooze a couple more times before whipping out her shortsword and slicing across it.

”Nasty bit of jam!”, Flory hisses. Her cloak knocks its blow aside, before swirling around and striking back.

Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14

Arity whips her sparkblade around and points it at the gargoyle, electricity spikes off the stone creature and leaps to blue
<>Fire off sparkblade, DC 19 reflex save
Strangely, firing off the sparkblade is a 1 action activity that does NOT have the manipulate trait so it shouldn't provoke

Flory blocks the hit with her shield and feints, despite her being not horrible, the ooze does not respond. Immunity to mental which feint is.

She strikes with her claw and rips part of the ooze open. Hit blue -12

Arity strikes creatures with lightning

Reflex, gargoyle, dc19: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
Reflex, blue, dc19: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Gargoyle is still flying as she used the last round action to fly.

Arity then strikes hitting the flying Gargoyle. Hit Gargoyle -4

Gargoyle continues to fly and strikes once on Arity once on Bonnie

Mary wipes the slime from her eyes in time to see the last ooze finally rupture under the unrelenting assault of her friends. She then turns to their remaining opponent. Knowing that it is only a matter of time before the gargoyle succumbs to their concentrated attacks, Mary rushes up and does her best to help the process along.

Action 1 (◆): Step

Action 2 (◆): Feint vs Red woman
Deception (Feint): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10 vs Red woman Perception DC

I'll take that as a failure.

Unable to get a clear shot, Albrecht issues an ominous warning.

"Madam, you've thrown in with the wrong crowd and it will likely cost you dearly."

intimidation-demoralize vs red: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

◆ Devise a stratagem, ◆ demoralize, ◆ strike

The slime-edged hem of Flory’s cloak whips out at the gargoyle.

Reach Spell, Cast gouging claw

Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (2, 6) + 4 = 12S

You concentrate your effort on Gargoyle, Mary fails to feint but lands a solid blow. Bonnie lands a hit as well, her fire dealing the full amount of damage, surprisingly Albrecht's word struck Gargoyle with great strength, and then his arrow crushes the remains of her body. Flory claw missed the target, but the Gargoyle was already dying.

Combat is over. But you don't know if you have time to heal. You can try and see what will happen.

You found a rusted box in the fountain, it contains a brittle piece of parchment that names the bearer as the owner of "Maunder Castle, Maunder Bridge, and all appurtenances thereto."

The box also has a silver signet ring with a large ruby worth 75 gp; the ring’s band is inscribed with the words "Lord Maunder." The fountain contains a single metal climbing bolt that’s been underneath—and unharmed by—the sewer ooze for many years.

The door leading inside the castle is closed.

How would you proceed, head right in? Heal with potions and spells? Leave the castle to heal through threat wounds?

Loot sheet updated.

Mary looks at the signet ring with a trained eye and nods in approval. "This is worth some serious gold." She tucks it into a pocket with the rest of the party loot. Her eyes light up when she reads the parchment. "Well, looky here! Seems we're now the proud owners of this castle and the bridge, and a good chunk of the land around here." She gives the building an appraising look and frowns. "Not in great shape, is it? We may not want to give up our lodgings at the fishing camp just yet." She glances at the climbing bolt, shrugs and adds it to the party loot.

She then examines the group for wounds. "I think we should take the time to heal up before we go in. How about we head outside for a moment to let me and Albrecht patch us up before we hit the castle? I'm in no hurry to face whatever's inside."

Loot sheet updated.

[/b] She gives the building an appraising look and frowns. "Not in great shape, is it? We may not want to give up our lodgings at the fishing camp just yet."

”A diamond in the rough”, says Flory. ”Who knows what we’ll find below the surface?”

Bonnie has two minor healing potions from character creation, which are probably too weak to be of any use in combat now. Since she's only down a little bit (two MHP will get her close to full), she'll suggest that we heal right in the courtyard - she'll keep watch on the door.

Minor Healing Potion: 1d8 ⇒ 8
Minor Healing Potion: 1d8 ⇒ 3

"It's exciting. We should make sure we're in good shape before we go in."

If you want to do it, in short time, I would have to know, who is using BM on whom, so that we have clarity.

Even with Bonnie gulping down her potions, we have Mary down 19 HP, Arity down 13 HP, and Flory down 7 HP for a total of 39 HP. Mary has already done Battle Medicine on Arity, Mary, and Mylos today, so she can't help there. It is unlikely that we're going to recover 39 HP using just Albrecht's Battle Medicine, a couple of Heal spells, and whatever potions we have on us. If we want to go into the coming fight at full strength then we will probably need to take the time to Treat Wounds.

Mary palms her minor Elixir of Life and looks at it doubtfully. "I don't think this is going to do it."

Arty winces at the slice she has received.
"Hmmm, I don't think it would be wise to try and get these tended to before proceeding. Who knows what monsters they have in there, given they had a GARGOYLE as an outdoor guard. This is quickly getting out of hand."

Sorry, to be clear - Bonnie is willing to guard the door while others are doing Treat Wounds. She didn't use Focus, so she'd be sitting around most of the time. This would allow us to heal to full while still maintaining vigilance against something that could otherwise come out and surprise us mid-bandaging.

Albrecht looks over the carnage before turning his attention to the keep.

"Hmm... The rest of the building is rather small. I doubt we'll have time to properly treat our wounds before someone emerges and assaults us. Even worse, the remainder of the leadbuster lads might be able to escape through a window or other egress.

Perhaps Mylos could provide us with a burst of healing while I provide some emergency first aid on the most injured. Then we could invade the keep immediately."

He shakes his head sadly. "Unfortunately I have not prepared any healing elixirs for today. I apologize for my lack of foresight. I do have a couple of improved drakeheart mutagens however."

A 2d8 AoE heal from Mylos would heal 9-10 on average then Albrecht could battle medicine for 2d8+3. That should come close to topping everyone off unless RNG does us wrong. The Moderate, drakeheart mutagen will provide 7 AC (5+2dex) vs the 5 (1+4) that we currently have. Perhaps Arity and Mary could use those.

I think Treat Wounds is better, heals and Battle Medicines are really good in combat. If we're concerned about being too close, we could go back outside the castle, and Bonnie can pull the gate down behind us. It potentially locks us out of the castle, but Bonnie can always Dimensional Assault back in.

Okay let's go with treating wounds.

Albrecht pulls out a healing kit and begins to bandage Mary's wounds.

Assurance Medicine gets Albrecht a 17

healing- Mary: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (6, 1) + 3 = 10

If we decide to spend 20 minutes then...

healing, continual healing- Mary: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (5, 3) + 3 = 11

Bonnie keeps watche the door, while Albrecht tries to fix Mary.

He is able to heal her while Mary heals Arity. With a bit of coordination at all fronts, they are able to pull it off.

Heal@Arity, Mary's assurance: 2d8 ⇒ (8, 5) = 13

After 10 mins: Arity is full, Mary is at -9, Flory at -2

When Albrecht begins to once agian patch Mary, the doors burst open and in it you see a skeleton. It looks as susprised as you are. Behind it you see.

Although this tall tower has supports for what must have been two interior floors, it has since become a drafty and dark open space that stretches twenty feet up to the roof above. The wall has only a few narrow windows that remain closed with thick wooden shutters. A set of stone stairs leads partway up one wall to a broken platform that has three unfurled bedrolls, and the main open area of the keep seems tidied up. One side features a long stone table with an array of equipment and two human corpses. The other side has a pentagram carved into the floor. Stubby candles stand at each of the pentagram’s points, and the stone floor in the middle appears blackened as though from great heat.

Next to a table there is a dwarf. He has dark, curly hair and a long beard adorned with skullshaped beard clasps.

The skeleton walks towards Bonnie and strikes with scimitar

Scimitar@Bonnie: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
Damage, s: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Scimitar@Bonnie: 1d20 + 6 - 5 ⇒ (20) + 6 - 5 = 21
Damage, s: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3 Crit -6

First strike is inacurate, but second is a lucky hit. Cutting Bonnie.

The other skeleton moves, draws a bow and shoots at Bonie

Bow@Bonnie: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Damage, p: 1d6 ⇒ 5

But misses.

The thing's seconds Strike throws Bonnie off, causing her to miss.

Bonnie steps aside, hoping to draw it out so that we can trap it in the bottleneck.

Mary sees the skeletons and groans. "Sheesh, why is it always skeletons? Why can't we get a few zombies sometimes?" From her experience with the previous skeletons, she realizes that her rapier and shortsword will be of limited use. She realizes that the only weapons capable of thumping the skeletons into submission are her fists. "I really should invest in a club one of these days."

Mary will delay on Bonnie, Mylos and Albrecht in the hope that they can get rid of Blue from the doorway. If not, then apply the rapier attack to Blue

Action (◇): Delay until end of Bonnie, Mylos and Albrecht's turns.

Mary scrunches up her fists and stepping over the remains of the skeleton at the door, enters the room. Seeing the dwarf, she thinks, "Now that's more like it," and pulling out her rapier, closes for a surgical strike before retreating out of the room again.

Arity has two weapons on her belt, the shortsword sparkblade, and also the fencing cane that she was shown using once. Let me know which you enchant.

He would go to touch the sparkblade unless Arity pointed him towards the other.

Bonnie misses with her strike and steps away. AC16 ;)

Mylos shields himself and enchants Arity's and Albrecht's weapon.
