TOZ's The Flesh Collector (Inactive)

Game Master TriOmegaZero

Inga and Daedin both recall there being water in the courtyard pool, but the smoke prevents confirming that it is still there. However, the sound of arcane language catches Daedin's ear, somewhere within the cloud.

Appearing from thin air, great hailstones pelt down on the party, inflicting a chill battering on everyone outside of the monastery doors!

Bludgeoning Damage: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 1) = 11
Cold Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 4) = 10

Snow and sleet swirl around the air as the stones settle on the ground, becoming rough ground, as Jathyl's cackling laughter rings out from the smoke.

10 Drusilla (Damage: 23, 4 Str)
9 Jathyl
6 Estara
4 Klaus (Damage: 21)

The party is up! Blue area is difficult terrain and causes a -4 to Perception checks. Jathyl's image is on the slides for when the smoke clears and everyone can see her clearly.

The grey-skinned person with glowing tattoos observes the situation and with an almost nonchalant shrug flings herself southwards Self Telekinesis with a very slight upward climb to get her feet off the ground.

'Up' 5', then 55' of movement 'south'. Currently 5' above the ground. Double Move

"This is sub-optimal."

Estara makes a tactical advance, coming into view of the burning building and the horrified monk crawling away from the entrance.

9 Jathyl
6 Estara
4 Klaus (Damage: 21)

Inga & Klaus don't take any damage from the ice storm. I mentioned in this post that the two were running towards the fire. I just never moved their icons on the map, but, I did now.

Free action out of turn (if GM allows talking out of turn): Via message spell, Skivven communicates the location of the angry demon druid spirit, "Angry spirit! Fifteen feet above west half of the pond!"

Skivven whispers a warning as Klaus sails across the courtyard to be transformed to physical form once more!

26 Daedin (Damage: 21)

10 Drusilla (Damage: 23, 4 Str)
9 Jathyl
6 Estara
4 Klaus (Damage: 10)

Can't fly that well, I'll admit. Does anyone have a spell to send me through the air, or should I get my bow ready?

Taking cover behind the pillars, Skivven pops a wand out of his spring loaded wrist sheath and bonks himself on the head, uttering an arcane syllable.

stealth, heroism: 1d20 + 30 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 30 + 2 = 43
shield via wand UMD, heroism: 1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 16 + 2 = 22

Not sure if someone turned the haste ON - if not I'll take it out of my header. Thanks.

Skivven renews his defenses in preparation for the smoke clearing. Pradnyara begins to maneuver around the courtyard, hampered by the rough terrain.

Haste has unfortunately expired during the investigation between combats. The wind is dispersing the smoke but has not yet gotten rid of the cloud.

Grunjar casts blessing of fervor.

Targets (allies) in range: Daedin, Drusilla, Pradnyara, Skivven, Grunjar.

With this blessing, you call your allies to move forth and empower them to conquer and become victorious. Each round for the duration of this spell, each of your allies can choose one of the following bonuses for that round at the beginning of its turn (their choice).

* Increase its speed by 30 feet.
* Stand up as a swift action without provoking an attack of opportunity.
* Take one extra attack as part of a full attack action, using its highest base attack bonus.
* Gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls and a +2 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves.
* Cast a single spell of 2nd level or lower as if it were an enlarged, extended, silent, or still spell.

These effects are not cumulative with similar effects, such as those provided by haste or a speed weapon, nor do they actually grant an extra action, so you can't use it to cast a second spell or otherwise take an extra action in the round. Blessing of fervor does not stack with haste.

Grunjar takes this round: Increase its speed by 30 feet.

Can't fly that well, I'll admit. Does anyone have a spell to send me through the air, or should I get my bow ready?

"Come with me, Drusla - I'll send you flying in a few seconds*!"

*read: next round

The cleric then moves west. (Drusilla can easily reach him with a double move if she takes the speed increase, right?)

Grunjar boosts his allies with fervor, before climbing over the rubble.

26 Daedin (Damage: 21)
20 Inga
18 Skivven (Damage: 21)
18 Pradnyara (Damage: 21)
15 Grunjar (Damage: 21)
10 Drusilla (Damage: 23, 4 Str)
9 Jathyl
6 Estara
4 Klaus (Damage: 10)

I think by strict reading, Grunjar can't select the benefit until his next turn, as his turn has already started when the spell is cast. So Drusilla should definitely be able to catch up with him!

Using increased speed option this round

Daedîn moves east trying to get LOS on Jathyl; he’ll fire a ghost salt arrow at the spirit…

To hit: Base/Dex, Magic, Weapon Focus, PBS, Deadly Aim, Precise Shot, Deadeye Bowman
Damage: Magic, Strength, PBS, Deadly Aim, Sneak Damage?

Not sure if sneak attack applies, including it just in case…

Longbow vs FFAC: 1d20 + 16 + 2 + 1 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (16) + 16 + 2 + 1 + 1 - 3 = 33
Magic/Cold Iron/Sneak Damage: 1d8 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 6 + 4d6 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 2 + 1 + 6 + (6, 6, 4, 6) = 39 (17 if Sneak Attack doesn’t apply)

1d9 ⇒ 5
1d100 ⇒ 98

Skivven sees Daedin fire a miracle shot through the smoke, somehow picking out the right square to target and sending his arrow straight into the spirit! Jathyl screams in fury, Skivven seeing her head whip around to stare in Daedin's direction in rage.

26 Daedin (Damage: 21)
20 Inga
18 Skivven (Damage: 21)
18 Pradnyara (Damage: 21)
15 Grunjar (Damage: 21)
10 Drusilla (Damage: 23, 4 Str)
9 Jathyl (Damage: 17)
6 Estara
4 Klaus (Damage: 10)

Unfortunately, by the wording of incorporeal and ghost salt, it only allows full weapon damage, not sneak attack. But also, 50% miss chance for being in the cloud prevents it too!

…her head whip around to stare in Daedin's direction in rage…

Help…police…murder…

Dru moves quickly toward Grunjar,hoping he has some kind of solution

Here I am!

Flying out of the smoke, Daedin sees the angry spirit bear down on him, reaching out with a clawed hand that passes through his armor and into his flesh, wounds bursting out along their trail.

Incorporeal Touch: 1d20 ⇒ 2
Corrupting Touch: 13d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 2, 6, 1, 1, 5, 2, 2, 5, 5, 6, 6) = 48 Fort save for half damage.

"Thieves! Desecrators! Your flesh is mine!" As the smoke clears, the party can clearly see her once beautiful figure, now disfigured and mutilated, impaled by quills and nails, her skin tattooed with shifting words. A crooked wand, one Daedin recognizes from the vision, is still grasped in her hand.

26 Daedin (Damage: 67/43) Pending save
20 Inga
18 Skivven (Damage: 21)
18 Pradnyara (Damage: 21)
15 Grunjar (Damage: 21)
10 Drusilla (Damage: 23, 4 Str)
9 Jathyl (Damage: 17)
6 Estara
4 Klaus (Damage: 10)

Party is up! The smoke clears at the start of round 3, Estara and Klaus will still have the obscuring cloud blocking their view. Jathyl is now flying within reach of Daedin.

@GM TOZ: You're right. I corrected Grunjar's position.

@Drusilla: I moved you on the map to a reasonable good tactical position next to Grunjar - if that's ok.

Knowledge: Religion t: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29 Yes! :-)
Aid Knowledge: Nature t: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6 Meh...

As soon as he sees Jathyl, Grunjar realizes something.

"As we thought: she is a ghost. However, that incorporeal wand she is holding is quite unusual - it must still exist in corporeal form somewhere else!"

(you may open the religion spoiler)

* Cast a single spell of 2nd level or lower as if it were an enlarged, extended, silent, or still spell.

OH.... that is NICE!

"S%@# s~** s*%+ s&!& s%*%... why does it always have to do with some f$&+ing ghost..." Skivven thinks to himself as he sees the elf's arrow pass through the angry spirit druid fey thing. About to use another buff, the ratfolk businessman pauses upon hearing the dwarf's comment about the wand, and instead turns himself invisible.

Standard: Extended vanish; move action to return towards the trap door; @GM: please move my token as I am away from computer at the moment...

stealth, invis, faster than 1/2 speed, hero: 1d20 + 30 + 20 - 5 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 30 + 20 - 5 + 2 = 50

Pradnyara LoH: 5d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 1, 3, 6) = 20

Skivven reverses course, moving quickly with Grunjar's blessing, reaching the trapdoor. Pradnyara continues the other way, calling on her healing powers to sooth the storm damage.

Fort: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21

Think that’s probably a fail…

Folio reroll: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

Fin makes an acrobatic move 15’ east to try to avoid an AoO…

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (9) + 26 = 35

…and fires another ghost salt arrow at the spirit…

Will select +2 attack and +2 AC for AC26/19/21

To hit: Base/Dex, Weapon Focus, Magic, PBS, Manyshot, Deadly Aim, Precise Shot, Deadeye Bowman, Blessing of Fervour
Damage: Magic, Strength, PBS, Deadly Aim

Longbow: 1d10 + 16 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 16 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 + 2 = 29
Magic/Cold Iron Damage: 1d8 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 2 + 2 + 1 + 4 = 17

…and then activates his runners shirt for an extra move action, moving back into the smoke…

Resisting the corrupting touch with fortitude and luck, Daedin darts away, narrowly managing to avoid the flailing claws, before landing another ghost salt arrow into Jathyl. She swats at the offending shaft, but passes harmlessly through it, the ectoplasm spent in the attack.

26 Daedin (Damage: 43)

10 Drusilla (Damage: 23, 4 Str)
9 Jathyl (Damage: 34)
6 Estara
4 Klaus (Damage: 10)

Keep in mind the smoke is gone by Daedin's turn! The blue outline is also still difficult terrain.

BoF: This round Grunjar takes the 30ft speed increase.

As promised, Grunjar casts fly on Dru.

He then quickly lays hands on himself. (Faction Reward: Miracle Worker)

LOH: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 2) = 9

Afterwards, he dashes away from Jathyl and towards the fire. (see map)

Once per adventure, you can use the lay on hands class feature as though you were a paladin whose level equals the number of goals you have completed.

===> lay on hands: 3d6 (swift: target you, std: target others)

With a defiant look, Dru takes a starting run and takes off the ground, her morningstar ready to strike the undead

Run... Learn to fly .. fly to live.. do or die...

Power Attack, reduced STR: 1d20 + 19 - 3 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 19 - 3 - 2 = 30

Dmg, PA, red STR: 1d8 + 9 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 6 - 2 = 15

Blessing of Fervor]* Take one extra attack as part of a full attack action, using its highest base attack bonus.

Power Attack, reduced STR: 1d20 + 19 - 3 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 19 - 3 - 2 = 16

Dmg, PA, red STR: 1d8 + 9 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 6 - 2 = 17

As she is totally new to aerial combat, her second attack misses as she struggles to keep her balance

Sorry, I'm a bit lost. Inga & Klaus only took move actions on their last turns, correct? And Klaus is still in incorporeal form?

Let the phantom fist fight begin!

This might happen.

Grunjar finishes buffing Drusilla, before moving towards the fire. Drusilla closes with the angry spirit, her morningstar making contact but not dealing as much damage as the ghost salted arrows.

Updated tracker to hopefully clear up initiative order.

"Gah!!! Fire bad! Fire HOT!"

Hesitant to get near the blazing fire, Klaus knows he needs to put it out to save the building and his friends. Steeling his resolve, he puffs out his chest and dashes to the eastern wall of the workshop. (If it's the western wall that needs to be broken down, he'll run to that one.)

He winds up his powerful fist and smashes it into the wall.
Ectoplasmic Slam, PA, Vital Strike & Fervor: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 10 + 2 = 16
damage: 4d8 + 11 ⇒ (5, 2, 7, 1) + 11 = 26

Or if it's a Strength check...
Strength check: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Klaus moves to the monastery gates, determination overcoming fear, as he batters at the side not yet on fire with a mighty blow, nearly smashing the entire wall down, but the door still hangs close to the fire!

The monk crawls away from the burning doorway, badly burned and oblivious to the fight going on in the courtyard.

Klaus almost has the firebreak complete! Dang hardness.

Uh oh. Did a bad monk just move up to Inga? Does he look hostile towards her or is he just moving away from the fire?

Inga snaps her fingers to get Pradnyara's attention and quietly calls out to her,
"Psst! Pradnyara! Take care of this monk. He's badly burned," she points to the monk on the ground below her. "I'm going to fly over there to check on things." she points in Klaus' direction.

Using a burst of speed from the blessing, she quietly flutters over to the support wall near Grunjar, "Hi, Grunjar," hoping the ghost doesn't notice her.
Stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20

Once behind the wall, she envisions a shimmering blue disc of force in her mind. With a wiggle of her nose, a shield of force suddenly appears hovering in front of her. She peeks around the wall and can see Drusilla in melee with the ghost.

Cast shield, +4 AC. Noted in header.

Botting Estara real quick.

Estara moves to follow Klaus, whipping some of the burning building at the front gate, blasting the structure out towards the shore, completing the fire break!

Telekinetic Blast: 1d20 ⇒ 4
Bludgeoning Damage: 4d6 + 9 ⇒ (2, 1, 6, 4) + 9 = 22

Seemingly heedless of Drusilla standing before her, Jathyl flies after Daedin, reaching out with grasping hands once more!

Incorporeal Touch on Daedin: 1d20 ⇒ 20 Oh that's not good.
Confirmation on Daedin: 1d20 ⇒ 1 Yay!
Wisdom Drain: 1d4 ⇒ 4

The clawing spectral hands pull away some of the archers mental awareness, as Jathyl seems to heal by the stolen vitality.

Pradnyara moves to her burned companion, laying a soothing touch to his wounds. "We cannot assist you in this fight! I shall move this brother to safety!"

Klaus can't fly in ectoplasmic form, unless it's with the fly spell. I should have mentioned earlier that Klaus floats to the ground before being transformed to ectoplasmic form.

"Good work, Estarra." Klaus nods in thanks at the kineticist.
"Let's get away from this fire," he says with wide eyes as the flames begin blowing in their direction.

Klaus hustles past Grunjar and gets next to Inga.
"Ready when you are, milady."

Delay so that Klaus can go after Inga.

Klaus hustles over, the fire handled.

Tracker has been corrected!

Skivven goes down the hatch looking for the wand the dwarf mentioned.

Double move using BoF speed enhancement; trap spotter in effect

stealth, invis, faster than 1/2 speed, hero: 1d20 + 30 + 20 - 5 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 30 + 20 - 5 + 2 = 51

BoF: This round Grunjar takes the +2 bonus on attack rolls and a +2 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves.

Grunjar walks towards the pond and channels Desna's divine energy to heal his allies.

channel energy to heal the living: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 6, 4) = 16

Channeling energy causes a burst that affects all creatures of one type (either undead or living) in a 30-foot radius centered on the cleric.
Targets: everyone including Pradnyara and the burnt monk, but not Jathyl (undead) and Skivven (too far away)

@GM TOZ: Grunjar healed himself (see this post) for 9 HP with lay on hands (faction reward, once per adventure). So together with the channel he is back at full HP, right?

Skivven throws open the trapdoor to reveal a tunnel underneath the monastery. Hopping down into the five foot diameter passage, he sees it runs out under the temple before turning towards the courtyard.

Grunjar heals the party members in the courtyard, removing much of the damage from the hailstones!

Drusilla delivers a barrage of blows to the undead ghost witch, even if she knows some of the damage won't get through

Drusilla chases after the flying spirit, barely managing to strike Jathyl with her morningstar!

"Time to put Jathyl to rest, Klaus. Let's help the others put an end to her existence."

Klaus nods, puffing out his chest.
"Yeah. I ain't afraid of no ghost," he says with a snarl.

Full round action to convert Klaus to incorporeal form.

Estara throws another piece of burning monastery, this time targeting the tormenting specter!

Telekinetic Blast on Jathyl: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
Bludgeoning Damage: 4d6 + 9 ⇒ (2, 3, 5, 5) + 9 = 24

Skivven sweeps the tunnel ahead with divination, picking up no auras. Above, Pradnyara helps the other monk towards safety.

Grunjar hustles towards the archer and grants him a bit of luck.

This action only makes sense if Daedin actually delays and is still able to attack after his fort save. If not I hereby reserve the right to change my action. ;-)

Klaus only took a move action last turn so that he could delay and go either before or after Inga.

Hearing the grunts and voices of Daedin, Drusilla, and Grunjar in battle across the courtyard, Inga peeks out from behind the wall. She can see them in battle with Jathyl.

Inga reaches over and imagines Klaus protected by shimmering, blue light. A shield of force, shaped like a disc, appears and hovers in front of him. She stays hidden behind the support wall.
+4 shield bonus to AC & applies against incorporeal touch attacks, since it is a force effect.

Inga narrows her eyes and glares at Jathyl.
"Destroy her, my love," she says to Klaus.

In true phantasmal form, Klaus makes a beeline as he soars above the ground towards Jathyl. He winds up a powerful fist and once in range, he delivers a mighty blow...
Charge, Incorporeal Touch, PA, & Vital Strike: 1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 10 + 2 = 28
damage: 4d8 + 11 ⇒ (5, 6, 6, 2) + 11 = 30

Not sure if I have Klaus' AC correct in the header. He has +8 deflection in incorporeal form, +4 shield spell, +4 mage armor, & +1 Dex.

Klaus charges into the fray, fully unleashed as he slams into the other incorporeal spirit. Surprise quickly turns to fury as Jathyl turns away from Daedin, focused entirely on this new challenger.

Daedîn shudders at the all too familiar touch…

Fort: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29

…but seems to resist the worst of it…

He nods to Grunjar sand delays his action till after the cleric reaches him…

on the road and will post my attack when I get home this afternoon…

Daedîn steps back and unleashes a ghost salt barrage on Jathyl…

Daedin's first shots are narrowly dodged, even with Grunjar's blessing of luck, but the final two land, tearing at Jathyl's spectral form!
