DM Brainiac's Sky King's Tomb

Game Master Brainiac

Gig begins his courageous song. Brijetta scorches the closest troll with fire, then Mal spits a burning loogie right into its eyes, a critical hit! As the troll howls in pain, Uhe darts in and stabs it in the knee!

The injured troll roars and attacks the investigator, tearing with its claws.

Dazzled: 1d20 ⇒ 14
Claw: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (19) + 16 = 35
Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 3) + 8 = 14
Dazzled: 1d20 ⇒ 1
Dazzled: 1d20 ⇒ 8

The other two trolls begin hefting rocks and hurling them at Mal, fearful of her burning spittle!

Rocks: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (12) + 16 = 281d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 181d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Gig continues to perform and casts a healing spell on Mal.

Sustain Courageous Anthem, Cast sooth II

sooth: 2d10 + 8 ⇒ (2, 4) + 8 = 14

Uhe barely notices the scratch. The dwarf glares Intimidatingly at the troll!
Intimidation(E) to Demoralize: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15

Looking like he is actually batting his eyelashes at the Troll, the Investigator reconsiders his next move....
DaS: 1d20 ⇒ 17

Licking his lips, Uhe neatly places his Clan dagger behind its other knee!
+1 Striking Clan Dagger (Skysunder), DaS, CA: 17 + 17 + 1 = 352d4 + 1 + 2d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3, 4) + 1 + (2, 5) + 2 + 1 = 18 Traits P Uncommon Agile Dwarf Parry Versatile B

The Investigator also Shared Stratagem with Mal!
Jus' behind da knee dere.

The dwarf then attempts to repeat his previous precision of pain!
+1 Striking Clan Dagger (Skysunder), CA, map: 1d20 + 17 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 17 + 1 - 4 = 242d4 + 1 + 2d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3, 3) + 1 + (2, 6) + 2 + 1 = 18 Traits P Uncommon Agile Dwarf Parry Versatile B

Brijetta tries to help Uhe, since Mal doesn't seem to be too bothered by the thrown stones, but is distracted by the possibility of being hit herself.

◈ Channel Elements, including free kinetic blast; ◈◈ Shard Strike
Molten Wire impulse attack, inspired (range 15 feet): 1d20 + 14 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 14 + 1 = 20

Elemental Blast (fire), ranged (60 feet), inspired, attenuator: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 - 5 ⇒ (2) + 14 + 1 + 1 - 5 = 13

Mal fully blocks one of the boulders with her shield, squeezing her eyes shut against the remaining avalanche, but between her own enchantments and Gig's magics she escapes mostly unharmed. Nonetheless, she takes her carefully shaped throat and lets out a terrible screech, piercing the trolls' eardrums with her Eagle's Cry and then spitting at the one Uhe has distracted if it's still up.

Sonic (Auditory): 4d8 ⇒ (4, 2, 6, 7) = 19 DC 26 Basic Fort for all three trolls. Frightened 1 on pass, Frightened 2 on fail, Frightened 2 and Fleeing for 1 round on crit fail

The troll dodges Brijetta's attacks, but Uhe scores another critical hit with Skysunder, following up with another strike. Mal's screech proves very effective, shattering the wounded troll into chunks of stone and crystal and leaving the other two reeling! She scores a critical hit as she spits acid directly into the eyes of the second troll.

The third troll starts to flee, terrified by Mal's shriek! The other one sputters and wipes at its eyes as it hurls more rocks at Mal. Its aim is off due to its fear!

Dazzled: 1d20 ⇒ 13
Rock vs Mal: 1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 16 - 2 = 19

The Investigator considers his next move....
DaS: 1d20 ⇒ 11

Licking his lips, Uhe neatly places his Clan dagger behind its knee!

Brijetta moves a little closer to the troll, then gestures and sends a spray of metal shards toward it!

Shard Strike spines, 30-foot line, piercing (DC 26 Reflex), inspired: 3d6 + 1 ⇒ (2, 3, 2) + 1 = 8

Mal spits into the closer Troll's face, conjuring up another spray of acid to continue the grim work.

Reflex vs Caustic Blast: 1d20 + 13 - 1 ⇒ (14) + 13 - 1 = 26

Gig blinds the nearer troll, setting up Uhe to deliver another critical hit! Brijetta blasts it with shards while Mal continues to blast it with acid.

The blind troll lashes out wildly, getting in some lucky hits against Uhe. The one who was fleeing regains its wits and jogs back to get into the fight again, its wounds starting to regenerate.

Blinded: 1d20 ⇒ 121d6d20 + 16 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 16 - 1 = 27

Brijetta continues her assault on the most wounded of the trolls, spraying metal as she watches with concern as the creature heals.
