Angels Fall: A Hells' Vengeance Campaign

Game Master bluedove

Panes of frosted glass rise between the arms of thick, white aspen boughs. Across the room, a wooden figure of the goddess Iomedae that looks grown rather than carved raises her blade over a simple, candlelit altar. The Angel Knight stands beside the image of her goddess and her loyal Hound looms protectively before her. The Archon is still wounded from Guillaume's smite attack, but he does appear partially recovered.

I mixed up your earlier generosity re: tiefling smite; you let it bypass DR, not keep going past the first hit. Mea culpa.

Yeah, brainfart on how you deliver shocking grasp. I'm too used to playing a Magus. In that case, I don't suppose Fellzir's got another one of those Align Weapons, does he?

Nope.Maybe go for the Angel Knight?

Could I disable the trap without breaking the invisibility?

The Shrike calls out to the charging tiefling, as softly as he can manage, "Hold it, G-man. Trap!" The Hound Archon growls again, snuffling at the air in The Shrike's general direction. The vigilante feels the creature's menacing aura take effect on him again, though Guillaume does not.

Hound Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27

Guillaume has spent one move action and still has a potential standard action unspent. Since The Shrike cannot exactly point out the area that is trapped, I won't mark it out on the map until a visible character spots it with a DC 20 Perception check. The Shrike is menaced. He takes –2 penalty on attacks, AC, and saves for 24 hours or until they successfully hit the archon that generated the aura.

Round 1
-------------------
The Shrike (Invisible, Menaced) - drank potion of invisibility and moved, noticed trap and warned G
Guillaume (-4) - began charge and stopped short due to trap warning
Hound - casts on the Angel Knight
Angel Knight - fires crossbow vs G for 4 Piercing Damage
Fellzir
Aurelius
Cimri and Rhysack

The Hound Archon narrows his eyes as he watches the area where The Shrike stands unseen very carefully, still sniffing every so often. He reaches back toward the Angel knight and she presents her arm for him to grasp and he murmurs in Celestial, casting something on his charge.

The Knight raises an already loaded crossbow and fires at the only target that has presented itself, Guillaume. The bolt strikes him with a glancing blow. Guillaume takes 4 Piercing damage.

Fellzir and Aurelius are up! Since the trap is out of the bag, you can roll your own perception check upon entering the room and if you beat DC 20, you will not end up standing on top of it, even if you place your token somewhere that you should be. I will still roll passive checks for anyone who moves into the room and doesn't post one.

Fellzir moves up to stab Guillaume in the back with the wand of shield of faith and looks around for the trap.

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

"I see nothing."

Another charge used off of the wand...

Cimri Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

Rhysack casts a ward on Cimri. The rogue jogs up to Guillaume, but quickly takes a sharp turn to avoid the trap she spots as plain as day. "I see it, this whole section is rigged to drop." She motions with her hand, sketching out the border of the trap. As she draws closer to the Hound Archon, it's aura takes effect on her again as well and she stops in her tracks.

Rhysack moves up behind Fellzir.

Round 2
-------------------
Aurelius
The Shrike (Invisible, Menaced)
Guillaume (-4hp, SoF)
Hound
Angel Knight
Fellzir
Cimri (Warded, Menaced) and Rhysack

Trap area is marked on the map, though it has not yet been triggered.
Aurelius, The Shrike and Guillaume are up!

The hound's sniffing is worrisome, but The Shrike still feels he should be unseen by the enemy. Moving with soft steps he circles around the trap, and takes position behind the enemies. There he waits for the others to close in to the enemies, and gets ready to strike.

Double move

Stealth, moving more than 1/2 speed, invisible: 1d20 + 8 - 5 + 20 ⇒ (5) + 8 - 5 + 20 = 28

Aurelius moves next to the trap, looks at it, at the angel knight, lets out a giggle and says:

We have a saying in Cheliax

Wer andern eine Grube Gräbt hat meist ein Grubengrabgerät

Approach! And fight me!

DC 15 will save or be forced to approach Aurelius, directly, over the trap.

Guillaume looks warily at the area Cimri sketches out, and attempts to skirt around it.

I'm going to hold my standard and hope the Angel Knight approaches, attacking her as soon as she comes in reach of my bardiche. Here's the roll, so I don't have to make it later.

Attack, Bardiche: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 1 = 10
Damage, Slashing: 1d10 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13
Welp.

AK Will Save: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 7 + 2 = 16
It is a very near thing, as Aurelius attempts to command the Angel Knight to walk across her own trap, her armor creaks as if she leans to do his bidding, but the extra protection provided to her by her loyal Hound holds her back from the tipping point. She drops the spent crossbow and draws her sword, pointing the tip at Aurelius. "No!" Her feminine voice is deep and resonate within the closed mask of her Angelic Helm. "You will come forth to face me and the judgement of mighty Iomedae!" She intones and casts a divine compulsion of her own on the Omdura.

Aurelius Will Save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

The compulsion sets in and Aurelius feels he must approach her. Though he still has the pretense of mind to avoid the trap now that he knows of it's danger. The Hound growls with a canine grin and takes one step away to clear the path to his mistress makes ready to receive their guest's approach.

Aurelius Will Save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
As he moves just that small amount closer, his aura of menace falls over Aurelius as well, and he is Menaced as well.

Round 2
-------------------
Aurelius (Compelled, Menaced)- moves, casts command vs Angel Knight
The Shrike (Invisible, Menaced) - double moves, stealthily
Guillaume (-4hp, SoF) - moves, readies attack
Hound - readies
Angel Knight - drops crossbow, draws sword, casts vs Aurelius
Fellzir
Cimri (Warded, Menaced) and Rhysack

Fellzir tries to identify the spell she cast...
Spellcraft: 1d20 ⇒ 15
and comes up just short.

He then tries to hold the omdura back, assuming that won't provoke an AoO.
Grapple: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 + surprise? Unexpected opponent bonus?

"Shake it off, friend. You are too smart for that."
Diplomacy to get a new will save?: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Trip Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Rhysack Will Save vs Menaced: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Hound Will Save vs Evil Eye: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
Aurelius CMB to break Grapple: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

Cimri catches on to Fellzir's tactics and tries to sweep Aurelius' legs out from underneath him to further limit his mobility, but the Omdura's feet are far too firmly planted. Frustrated, she calls to the Witch still lingering outside the room. "Rhysack, get your @$$ in here and do something!"

Rhysack plods into the room reluctantly. The Angel Knight hisses through her teeth beneath the mask of her helm at the sight of him. "Traitorous filth!"

Rhysack hangs his head, "I'm sorry Lencia... They have Siova. I have to keep her safe."

"Fool! Agents of Thrune have no mercy, you've only delayed your demise until you are no longer useful to them. And earned the ire of Iomedae!"

He does not bother to argue, merely raises his hand to cast the same hex on the Hound Archon as before.

Aurelius seems to recognize that his friends are trying to help him, despite their seemingly aggressive maneuvers and makes no move against them. However he is beyond reason under the effect of the paladin's spell. Despite his good intentions, Aurelius is simply too strong to be held back by Fellzir so easily as he breaks the grapple almost effortlessly and strides along the perimeter of the trap to close the distance toward the Angel Knight. Fortunately, the effort spent in being grappled and breaking free has cost him some movement and he does not make it close enough to be threatened by the minions of Iomedae. Once he stops advancing, he seems to shake off the spell and regain control of himself again.

Round 3
-------------------
Aurelius (Menaced) - broke grapple, moved
The Shrike (Invisible, Menaced)
Guillaume (-4hp, SoF)
Hound
Angel Knight
Fellzir
Cimri (Warded, Menaced) and Rhysack

The Shrike and Guillaume are up!

Time of dancing around is over. Enemies' attention elsewhere, The Shrike glides past the confused omdura. With just a few steps he catches the hound archon, and thrusts his blade into the unprotected back of the enemy.

MW Short sword, menaced: 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 6 - 2 = 12 vs. flat-footed, I hope
Damage, aligned weapon (evil), hidden strike: 1d6 + 2 + 2d4 ⇒ (4) + 2 + (4, 1) = 11

meh...

Did you add +2 for being invisible?

Did you add +2 for being invisible?

No, that I forgot. But I doubt it matters.. Hitting flat-footed AC 14, then.

Since the hound archon is blocking his path to the Knight, Guillaume tries to finish the celestial.

Attack, Bardiche: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 12 Flanking bonus from Shrike? delete that +2 if not applicable. Not that it's going to matter.
Damage, slashing: 1d10 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 10 + 1 = 14

The Shrike knows the jig is up the moment he closes the distance on the Hound Archon and its glowing golden eyes fix on his position, the canine snout quivering in anticipation. His stab is deflected easily as the Vigilante’s form flashes back into full view.

Guillaume’s attack from the opposite side is similarly rebuffed.

Then the celestial outsider unleashes his full fury on The Shrike’s revealed form, slashing in quick succession with his greatsword and lunging in to bite as well.
Hound Greatsword attack 1 vs S: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12 S Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 1) + 3 = 7
Hound Greatsword attack 2 vs S: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24 S Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (6, 2) + 3 = 11
Crit Confirm?: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Hound Bite Attack vs S: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

The Shrike nimbly avoids all but the heaviest of blows on the creature’s backswing, but as he reels from the punishing slash he hears the Ka-THUNK of the trap being released at his feet and turns to face the Angel Knight just as she raises her shield and barrels into him, shoving him off the precipice to fall to the forest floor 40 feet below!
AK Bullrush Attack vs S: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31

Round 3
-------------------
Aurelius (Menaced) - broke grapple, moved
The Shrike (-11hp, Menaced) - moved, attacked Hound, missed
Guillaume (-4hp, SoF) - attacked Hound, missed
Hound (Hexed) - attacked The Shrike for 11 damage
Angel Knight - activated trap and Bullrushed The Shrike through it
Fellzir
Cimri (Warded, Menaced) and Rhysack

Fellzir is up!

Fellzir puts a shield of faith on Cimri and puts the wand away.

I was hoping the enemies would share their attention between me and Guillaume, but alas... At least I tanked a full round :) Now, go get 'em guys!

Cimri gasps in alarm to see the "new guy" shoved unceremoniously through the open trap door. Fortunately his quick reflexes serve him well as he kicks off from the flat of the recessed platform and snaps the magical leaf in half that he pocketed earlier and disappears from view again.

"Wow! You sure play dirty for being a so-called Angel Knight." She derides, with a tone bordering on respect.

”Iomedae’s tenets teach the value of sound tactics, especially in the face of superior numbers.” Lencia answers simply, though you think you notice a slight lisp in her pronunciation of some consonants, particularly "p".

Cimri moves up behind Aurelius, drawing and throwing one of her less favorite blades at the paladin. It strikes true, slicing through her crimson pantaloons having struck her thigh. AK takes 5 damage
Cimri Ranged Kukri Attack vs AK: 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 6 - 2 = 24 P Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Crit Confirm?: 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 6 - 2 = 19 P Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Rhysack continues to focus on the Hound, firing off a magical ray that makes contact easily but then seems to fade away with no effect.
Rhysack Ranged Touch vs Hound: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20 Caster Check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 Str Penalty: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Round 4
-------------------
Aurelius (Menaced)
The Shrike (Invisible, Menaced) - spends this round climbing, makes 10 ft progress
Guillaume (-4hp, SoF)
Hound (Hexed
Angel Knight (-5)
Fellzir
Cimri (Warded, Menaced) and Rhysack

Aurelis and Guillaume are up!

You issue a challenge, yet use lowly traps? Were your so called inheritor not the goddess of Hypocrites, you would have fallen, just as my noble comrade did! I smite thee!

Swift action smite

attack bastard sword divine favor power attack smite shaken: 1d20 + 2 + 4 + 3 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 4 + 3 + 4 - 2 = 12

Good thing the smite last until I hit her haha

Blyad He curses in Abyssal as his blow goes wide

Guillaume continues to hack away with his bardiche, his frustration mounting.
Attack, Bardiche: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9 Seriously?
Damage, Slashing: 1d10 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12

The Hound takes a single step to close on Guillaume and unleashes the onslaught of his Celestial might on the tiefling. Fellzir's shield of faith proves it's value, the extra protection saving the bloodrager from a serious critical hit. The greatsword strike across the chest would still likely be lethal to a lesser being and Guillaume feels several ribs splinter beneath the punishing blow against his scale mail. Fortunately, the Hound's back slash and bite fail to make contact. Guillaume takes 14 slashing damage!

Hound Greatsword attack 1 vs G: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28 S Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (6, 5) + 3 = 14
Crit Confirm?: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Hound Greatsword attack 2 vs G: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 S Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (6, 2) + 3 = 11

Hound Bite Attack vs G: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15 Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

"There is no hypocrisy in using the terrain to one's advantage, thrall of Thrune!" The Angel Knight pronounces, slashing at the mouthy Omdura with a precise strike, slicing into his sword arm. Then she takes a step back, resuming her back to back positioning with her loyal Hound Archon. Aurelius takes 11 slashing damage!

Angel Knight longsword attack vs A: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26 S Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Round 4
-------------------
Aurelius (-11p, Menaced) - smites Angel Knight, Bastard sword attack, misses
The Shrike (Invisible, Menaced) - spends this round climbing, makes 10 ft progress
Guillaume (-18hp, SoF) - Bardiche attack vs Hound, misses
Hound (Hexed-AC) - 5-ft step, full attack vs G for 14 damage
Angel Knight (-5)- longsword attack vs A for 11 damage, 5-ft step
Fellzir
Cimri (Warded, Menaced, SoF) and Rhysack

Fellzir is up!

Fellzir looks at Cimri and Aurelius, but is careful once again not to use anyone's name. "Young female, if this works, grab her sword and don't let go. Do not just kick it into the hole, for we know the one who licks his own fur can also dimension door."

Fellzir might use a different word than "fur," but this is a family show.

He then casts Burning Disarm for the second time today, thanks be to Cimri. This time on the angel knight.

If you tell me that the angel knight has multiple swords showing prominently, I might reconsider, but this would still be a good opportunity.

Cimri raises an eyebrow at the address, but prepares herself to carry out the plan.

AK Reflex Save: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 + 2 = 24

The Angel Knight quickly releases her sword and it clatters to the floorboards. Cimri casts her mage hand and tries to move the sword away, but can't budge it. "It's resisting me somehow, must have some magic of it's own."

She moves closer to position herself to strike if the Knight reaches to retrieve her blade.

Rhysack tries his hex again, this time targeting the Archon's attack prowess, but without achieving any effect.
Hound Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

Round 5
-------------------
Aurelius (-11p, Menaced)
The Shrike (Invisible, Menaced)
Guillaume (-18hp, SoF)
Hound (Hexed-AC)
Angel Knight (-5, Disarmed)
Fellzir
Cimri (Warded, Menaced, SoF) and Rhysack

Aurelius, The Shrike and Guillaume are up! The Shrike needs one DC 15 Climb Check to climb up onto the rope bridge. One move action spent for each attempt.

Aurelius, can you grab the sword? You shouldn't provoke an AOO.

Climb: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

If words could kill, the Angel Knight would be stabbed with hundreds of little wounds. The Shrike mutters a hundred curses at the enemy as he meticulously climbs upwards.

Success with the first try. Does that mean I have one move action left? About tactical placement: is the square below Cimri and left of AK filled with stuff or can it be entered?

Oh Lady in Shadow, behold this pompous, hypocrite prick with fake wings, is she not far more trollable then me?

Aurelius invokes someone very much different from his patron, as he strikes again

attack again: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14

with very limited success.

I don't want him to have to delay. Please forgive me Guillaume if this is not what you wanted. I serve at your mercy.

Guillaume, with reach, takes a 5' step to flank with Cimri, (always give the rogue flanking bonuses) and then rages to get the extra hp and strength. His bonus goes from a +7 to a +11 as he cuts loose on the so-called angel knight.
BAB 3, Strength 3, Rage 2 more, Flanking 2, MW weapon 1.

Death to the Angel Knight: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 301d10 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21

"Rawr!!!"

(Un)holy crap, that's a 19-20 weapon. I'll be rolling to confirm that crit now.

Confirmation: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 131d10 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16

Oh well

I appreciate the post, and the high roll. but your math's off a bit. should be as follows:

Attack: 1d20+3(BAB)+5(Rage-boosted STR)+1(Mwk)+1(Trait vs Iomedaeans)+2(Flank)-3(Power Attack) For a total of +9

Damage:1d10+7(Rage-boosted STRx1.5)+3(Power Attackx1.5)+1(Trait) for a total of +11

So, 28 to-hit, 20 damage.

Well I was close anyway. I saw the d10+10 above and just added 2 for Rage. :-)

Threatened by too many combatants to countenance risking herself after the punishing blow from Guillaume, the Angel Knight calls to her companion, ”Aericad, my sword, if you please?” The Hound huffs his assent and bends down to pick up the sword at her feet and places it in her hand.
(And possibly exposes himself to an attack from The Shrike, depending on his movement)

Then the Angel Knight faces off again with Aurelius, her strike clean and elegant as she slices into his shoulder.
Angel Knight longsword attack vs A: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27 S Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Fellzir notices that his companions are flagging, particularly Aurelius.

Round 5
-------------------
Aurelius (3/25 hp, Menaced) - Bastard sword attack vs Angel Knight, misses
The Shrike (16/27 hp, Invisible, Menaced) - climbs up, moves
Guillaume (10/32 hp, SoF) - Bardiche attack vs AK, strikes for 21 damage
Hound (Hexed-AC) - picks up AK’s sword, Greatsword attack vs G, strikes for 11 damage
Angel Knight (-25) - Longsword attack vs A for 8 damage
Fellzir
Cimri (Warded, Menaced, SoF) and Rhysack

Fellzir is up!
I have been poorly tracking hp for this combat and realized I'd better do an audit. The accounting above should be correct but please feel free to double check me.

I didn't plan getting next to the hound and his nose, as I couldn't have attacked him this round

Trying to calm his breath after the climb, the Shrike walks closer to the fight. In the cover of invisibility, he draws his sword once more, and prepares launch a new attack.

Knowledge Planes: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (13) + 0 = 13
Yuck. I guess I'm going to have to Bluff...

"Little dog, what will happen to you when this spiteful traitor is captured and tried for treason or perhaps accidentally killed while resisting arrest? Will you be a laughing stock? Will they chain you to a tree and throw rocks at you? Because you could run away now and no one would ever know. Or you could bind her, collect the reward, and be both rich and a hero. You need not suffer here, far from your home."

Bluff: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

The lies are strong, but hopefully somewhat convincing.

Fellzir tries to get inside the hound's mind and make him falter or turn. He then channels, leaving out the hound and the angel knight, but fully letting the healing wash over Rhysack.
Selective Channel Positive Energy: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 4) = 7

Shrike if you took nonlethal when you hit those branches, the channel heals 7 real and 7 nonlethal.

Should I get an AoO against Aericad?

Should I get an AoO against Aericad?

I initially thought so but after looking up the threat range of a reach weapon, I think not. Sorry! It would be different if you had a spiked gauntlet equipped though, so keep that in mind for future purchases.

Round 5
-------------------
Aurelius (10/25 hp, Menaced) - Bastard sword attack vs Angel Knight, misses
The Shrike (23/27 hp, Invisible, Menaced) - climbs up, moves
Guillaume (23/38[32] hp, SoF) - 5-ft step, rages, Bardiche attack vs AK, strikes for 20 damage
Hound (Hexed-AC-Att) - picks up AK’s sword, places in hand
Angel Knight (-32) - Takes Llongsword from Hound, Longsword attack vs A for 11 damage, LoH for 6hp
Fellzir - channels, healing 7 hp
Cimri (Warded, Menaced, SoF) and Rhysack - Kukri attack vs AK for 13 damage / Hexes Hound to debuff attacks

Cimri slashes at the Angel Knight, taking full advantage of the flanking position Guillaume has afforded her. She stabs deep and deftly twists her Kukri on the withdraw.
Cimri Kukri Attack: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 7 + 2 = 22 P Damage: 1d4 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 = 7 Sneak attack: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 4) = 6

Rhysack tries his hex again and this time it sets in on the Hound. -2 to the Hounds Attacks
Hound Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

The Angel Knight relieves some of her wounds with a lay on hands but it is clear she will not last much longer under this assault.
LoH: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 3) = 6

The Hound sneers, snarling his reply to Fellzir, "Foolish human! You understand nothing of Honor or Loyalty. I will protect my charge until her last breath and then I will carry her soul to Heaven, wrapped in a shroud of Glory for her Valorous service to the Goddess!"

Round 6
-------------------
Aurelius (10/25 hp, Menaced)
The Shrike (23/27 hp, Invisible, Menaced)
Guillaume (23/38[32] hp, SoF)
Hound (Hexed-AC-Att)
Angel Knight (-32)
Fellzir
Cimri (Warded, Menaced, SoF) and Rhysack

Aurelius, The Shrike and Guillaume are up!

Does it have to be spiked? I do have regular gauntlets that come with my armor...

Feeling refreshed from Fellzir's magical healing, The Shrike sneaks closer. And once he is in position, he slashes out at the guardian hound with his sword.

Short sword, invisible, menaced: 1d20 + 6 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 2 - 2 = 11
damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
hidden strike: 2d4 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7

Sigh, maybe I should let Fellzir bot my rolls as well...

Does it have to be spiked? I do have regular gauntlets that come with my armor...

Thy armor shall fall as useless as Iomedaes breasts padding! As for thy effing dog

kn plaes: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Such an irrelevant species of furries that it is not even worthy of mention

attack come the f%%@ on: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27
damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

FINALLY

The long suffering Omdura at last gets in a solid whack

I don't think I ever noticed that before. Alas. I'll make sure and pick up some spiked gauntlets, or perhaps cestuses (cesti?), when next I get the chance.

Guillaume steps back to get the room to use his bardiche, and attacks the hound again.

Attack, Bardiche: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 11
Damage, Slashing: 1d10 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 10 + 1 = 17
I guess I just need someone else to roll for me.

The Angel Knight reels from Aurelius' heavy strike and her return attack is both badly aimed and weak. She taps herself for more healing and The Hound Archon reaches to touch her to give her his aid as well. She stands a good deal straighter afterward.

Angel Knight longsword attack vs A: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 14 S Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
2d6 ⇒ (4, 6) = 10
1d8 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Hound Cast Defensively Concentration: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

Quickie post before bed, Fellzir is up!

Note, Aurelius can opt to not count as evil once per day, as an immidiate action, from his amoral mercenary trait, I would like to use this the next time I get hit, to maybe not get hit (since she doesnt get CHA to AB) and take a bit less damage. Also, I think we got the regen judgdement going?

Fellzir hisses (evilly?) at Guillaume, "No, don't shift! She needs the flanking!" He tries to say it in such a way that the AK doesn't hear, but there's only so much he can do. "Focus on the knight. The mutt can wait. He will be out of healing soon anyway."

In retort to the hound, "You think she's going to Heaven? Maybe after years of torture and imprisonment. If you want paradise, you had better finish her yourself."

Channel: You heal one. I heal six. How is that math working for you?: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 4) = 6 healing. Same selections.

Note, Aurelius can opt to not count as evil once per day, as an immidiate action, from his amoral mercenary trait, I would like to use this the next time I get hit, to maybe not get hit (since she doesnt get CHA to AB) and take a bit less damage. Also, I think we got the regen judgdement going?

I don't see anywhere that the Healing Invocation has been activated for this combat. Can you believe I haven't even been using her smite? Silly me, thanks for the reminder. XD

Round 6
-------------------
Aurelius (10/25 hp, Menaced) - Bastard sword attack w/ smite vs AK for 16
The Shrike (23/27 hp, Invisible, Menaced) - Short sword attack vs Hound, misses
Guillaume (23/38[32] hp, SoF) - 5-ft step, Bardiche attack vs Hound, misses
Hound (Hexed-AC-Att) - casts defensively on AK
Angel Knight - Longsword attack vs A, misses, LoH for 10 hp
Fellzir - channels, healing 6 hp
Cimri (Warded, Menaced, SoF) and Rhysack - Kukri attack vs AK, misses / Attempts to hex Hound, fails

Cimri does indeed seem to need the aid of Guillaume’s flank as her Kukri strike fails to connect without it. Rhysack continues to try and layer his hexes on the Hound Archon, but this one slides off without effect.

Cimri Kukri Attack vs AK: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15 P Damage: 1d4 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 = 7
Hound Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
