[PbP Gameday XII] Computerpro82 PF1 Year of the Shadow Lodge (Inactive)

Game Master Eric Parker 82

”Aaaargh! That acid sure smarts,” Yulau calls out as she hopes there might be some healing on the way. Seeing the goblins everywhere, she pulls her mage armor wand and uses the command word. There was a quick flash of silver shimmering around her as the wand discharged.

"Only if your mass healing is selective. I would prefer not to die from friendly fire, no matter how well-intentioned."

He pulls two daggers and begins climbing the stairs, though will delay until after Razisus if the priest wants to throw an inflict his way.

Reflex save DC 14, acid dmg 9: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
Initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Somehow Wither had anticipated that something is about to happen, but is still quite surprised that it’s coming from up above. Nonetheless, staying alert helped her to avoid being splashed by acid.

Wither casts Barkskin on herself and pulls out her spear.

He pulls two daggers and begins climbing the stairs, though will delay until after Razisus if the priest wants to throw an inflict his way.

"May the Lady of Graves renew your body, if not also your soul." Razisus says, uttering a prayer as he lays a hand upon the dhampir.

Converting status to inflict moderate wounds: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (5, 8) + 3 = 16

Taking over GMing for now. You have 2 more rounds of actions before next encounter.

Razisus next offers a couple of prayers for himself.
Casting virtue on self

He draws his sling.

Then continues.
Casting shield of faith on self

Yulau stashes her Mage Armor wand and pulls her CLW wand.

UMD to activate 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
CLW 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

"That does hit the spot. I like you."

Egvreis tries to find a spot where he won't be seen.

Stealth: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18

Move me on the map to wherever such a location might be, if any.

Lady Alya looked at the group that had gathered and how they were helping each other. Healing and taking up arms.

"Good we are all pathfinders, teamwork is in our blood."

She moves to Yulau and takes out her own wand of healing and taps her, saying the activation word.

wand of CLW 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 now 46/50, sorry its so low, but 3 more Yulau

"That should help a little, If we have time how about we sound off our names? Would help us know who everyone is in this fight. I'm Lady Alya De Qill, The house of De Qill's Investigator."

Better image of her here

Alya keeps an eye out for trouble coming their way.

Perseption 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

Madcap, the save avoids all damage, not half.

** spoiler omitted **

While we are waiting for our other two players, you will have a few rounds between combat encounters here. You can start taking actions for those intervening rounds.

Group of goblins finds you and attacks.

Madcap can act first.

Taking over GMing for now. You have 2 more rounds of actions before next encounter.

Wither drops her spear then casts Shillelagh on her quarterstaff.

"That should help a little, If we have time how about we sound off our names? Would help us know who everyone is in this fight. I'm Lady Alya De Qill, The house of De Qill's Investigator."

“Wither, a druid, but…” Her eyes drift as she looks for the words to explain, “not the kind of druid you may think of.”

I thought there’s only one round before encounter starts, drawing the wrong weapon.

Taking over GMing for now. You have 2 more rounds of actions before next encounter.

Yeah, so I dropped my spear, which I took out on the first round, and switched to my quarterstaff on the second. I was going to begin the battle with throwing my spear if I don't have time to cast Shillelagh before combat begins.

Seeing the goblins approach, Madcap who's still armed with a turkey drumstick draws a packet of flash powder from up her sleave and sends it hurtling amongst the mob, to hopefully buy her friends (well, recent very acquaintances at any rate) a bit of time to sort out their wands, clubs and spears. ;)

flash powder v intersection 10' away (AC 6): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22

Since the gobos aren't really all in actual spaces, and we are playing sorta theater-of-the-mind-wise, I'll just say that it is Madcap's intent to hit as many of the closest attackers as she can.

Creatures within a 10-foot-radius burst are blinded for 1 round (Fortitude DC 13 negates).

1d4 result after last encounter was 3 and IIRC you had used one round already

Orange, blue and green gobbos are blinded for 1 round. Black attacks closest opponent Wither and Yellow against Madcap, but they both miss. Green stumbles to cover behind bench.

Black's short sword vs. Wither: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15
Yellow's short sword vs. Madcap: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

Egavreis and Lady Alya can act.

Knowledge (Nobility): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19

"Lady" de Qill, eh? Egavreis muses as he watches the investigator. Hardly worth my time, unless she can introduce me to someone of her house with real power.

He breaks off his inner monologue as the pack of goblins arrive.

She covers her eyes as the flash comes and then surveys the results.
One was hiding, a mage of some kind, She tried to see what it's up to.
Perseption 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

She makes her mind up and with her blade ready she moves.

5' Step to Giblin Black.

Aiming to gut the Giblin close to them.

AC21 / TH 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22 DMG 1d6 ⇒ 2

A presise hit but it did little damage to the little green monstrosity.

Egavreis emerges from hiding and tumbles behind the Yellow goblin. If that does not take a full action, he will also stab Yellow with a cold iron blade.

Acrobatics, Tumble: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19

Masterwork Cold Iron Dagger: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10
Piercing Damage: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Flanking: +2 to hit and Sneak Attack: 2d8 ⇒ (3, 4) = 7

Lady Alya wounds black while Egavreis misses. Blue goblin tries to stab the dhampir but swings at air.
miss chance, 50+ hits: 1d100 ⇒ 13

Razisus and Yulau can act

Razisus climbs the steps and hurls a stone at a goblin (green)
Move
Ranged sling: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
Damage (B): 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Yulau stashes her CLW into and in her satchel and then she blasts the yellow goblin with a magic missile spell.

Damage 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (3, 4) + 2 = 9

Orange, blue and green gobbos are blinded for 1 round. Black attacks closest opponent Wither and Yellow against Madcap, but they both miss.

"Nyah, nyah! Can't get me!" mocks Madcap, obviously enjoying herself. "Must be your really short shortsword. Maybe if you had a short longsword, or maybe a really long shortsword?"

Yellow is killed by magic and green is badly wounded by sling stone. Red moves to flanking position and attacks Egavreis. Orange is blinded.

short sword: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Wither can act

Wither attacks the goblin closest to her (black) with her quarterstaff.

Quarterstaff attack, Shillelagh: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Quarterstaff damage, Shillelagh: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (1, 3) + 2 = 6

The druid misses gobbo.

Can't move tokens before sunday evening. Madcap again

Standing upon one of the benches, Madcap looks around in disgust. "One half-blind goblin? One!? That's all you guys could muster!?"

She looks at the rest of the party accusingly.

Mustering her apparent frustration, Madcap tosses her turkey leg aside without looking. The blue clad goblin ducks as the leg passes overhead, bounces off a higher bench and rebounds into the back of the head of the goblin hiding in the aisle behind him and hopefully dropping green.

thrown improvised weapon v green (cover, range penalty): 1d20 + 9 - 4 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 9 - 4 - 4 = 19 damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

"ONE LOUSY GOBLIN!?" she shouts again out of nowhere, fuming. "If you want to do something right...."

She rolls up her sleeves, cracks all of her knuckles and toes with a flourish and launches into action, handspringing across the seats until she lands behind the front-line of goblins, in their midst, with a flail suddenly in her hands.

acrobatics avoid AoOs (half-speed, threading the needle between black and red): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

"YOU LITTLE GUYS WANNA GET NUTS!?" she growls at their attackers. "LET'S GET NUTS!"

Kn Local 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13 just to work out what Madcap is

I AM THE TERROR THAT FLAPS IN THE NIGHT!

I am the best vigilante character that I could actually use the rules to build.

I AM MADCAP!!

Haha, love it

Lady Alya looks on in wonder as the attacks of Madcap.
Then snaps back to the fight.

Madcap's turkey leg knocks out green. Four goblins left standing. The black tries to stab Wither, but she dodges.
short sword: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Egavreis and Lady Alya can act

Lady Lyra keeps attacking the goblin in front of her, but now the Clown was attacking it from behind. Her blade darted out again seeking a weak spot.

Attack on Black TH 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 5 + 2 = 17 +2 flanking with madcap DMG 1d6 ⇒ 6

Madcap has set up a perfect opportunity for Egavreis, so he takes it.

MW Cold Iron Dagger, Full Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Piercing Damage: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Flanking: +2 to hit and Sneak Attack: 2d8 ⇒ (3, 7) = 10
-and-
+1 Alchemical Silver Dagger, Full Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Piercing Damage: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Flanking: +2 to hit and Sneak Attack: 2d8 ⇒ (7, 6) = 13

If Red drops, he will 5' step right to get adjacent to Orange (and use the second attack, if it's still available.

Alya drops black gobbo and Egavreis ends life of red. But his second attack misses Orange by hair's width.

Blue goblin follows Egavreis and attacks him.
short sword, flank: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 + 2 = 23
crit confirmation: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 + 2 = 13
slash: 1d4 ⇒ 3
crit damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4

Egavreis, moved your token according to your description. Razisus and Yulau can act.

Yulau grabs another wand, this time a magic missile wand, and fires a blast at the remaining target.

Damage 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Lady De Qill was at last happy as the goblin now squared on her flade, fell to the floor. Her blade had found its heart and now she pulled out the fine blade from it. A look around, two left. Her military training kicked in and she called to the others as she sought to move in and subdue one.

"Try and take one of them alive, we need to know where they came from."

Actually there is still two of them (blue and orange). I assume you meant blue, which is closest to you. Yulau's magic missile hits and blue is on brink of collapse.

Orange swings wildly at Madcap.

Short sword: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

Wither next

Orange swings wildly at Madcap.

Madcap does a little mocking dance and blows raspberries at the goblin.

Lady Alya moved and punched Blue The closest Goblin to knock it out. The information it had would be needed.

Unarmed Strike 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23 DMG 1d3 ⇒ 3 NL DMG

Not convinced his skill will allow him to pick off a goblin engaged in melee, Razisus asks that Pharasma guide the druid's hand.

Move; cast guidance on Wither

Blue is now unconscious. After Wither, Madcap and Egavreis can act

Wither moves to a flanking position with Egavreis and strikes the goblin (orange).

Quarterstaff attack, Shillelagh: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Quarterstaff damage, Shillelagh: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 4) + 2 = 11
awww...

**House GM Announcement**

The attacks die down, and all serious threats are driven out of the Irorium and onto the streets. The eerie pillar of light still shoots skyward from somewhere on the Grand Lodge’s grounds, and the citizens of the city stand in dumb awe of the spectacle. A group of Pathfinders, badly injured from the fighting, call to you as they limp along. "Hurry, get to the Lodge! It’s under attack!"

Getting there is easier said than done. Plotting a course toward the Grand Lodge proves simple enough, given the immense pillar of light streaking up into the night sky. The streets, however, are choked with panicked and fleeing citizens. Your race through the Foreign Quarter to the Grand Lodge brings you to a large market. Collapsed buildings, broken tents, and piles of debris torn from other nearby structures form a crude but effective-looking barricade across the center of the market square, blocking your progress.
______________

GMs, you may begin the Fire in the Streets encounter.

Lady Alya
Yanks up the Goblin, and tires it up, as the shout comes over to them.

"We have one of the little green swine alive here"

When they tell them to head out, She looks at the others with her.

"Well done, well done all of you, Thank you, and if you are up for more, we can head out, Anyone hurt I have a wand, we heal on the run."

She looks to the others to see if they are

Alys seems to be enjoying herself, so Egavreis will mostly focus on Orange.

MW Cold Iron Dagger, Full Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Piercing or Slashing Damage: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Flanking: +2 to hit and Sneak Attack: 2d8 ⇒ (4, 7) = 11
-and-
+1 Alchemical Silver Dagger, Full Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
Piercing or Slashing Damage: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Flanking: +2 to hit and Sneak Attack: 2d8 ⇒ (8, 3) = 11

If the first strike drops Orange, he will take a 5 foot step south and try to strike Blue nonlethally with the -4 penalty.

Egavreis manages to kill last goblin. New map on slide 5.

Currently, a patrol of goblin archers holds the barricade.

PCs start at yellow-border square on right side. Egavreis, Madcap and Wither act first.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Egavreis moves forward and takes cover behind the carpets.

Stealth: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

Perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

"Careful!" Razisus warns. "The area is entrapped! Portions of the barricade have been rigged to collapse and immediately bury victims with a barrage of heavy stones and jagged metals! Look for the trip wires and cut them if you can."

Lady Alya nods at Razisus,

'Understood Razisus, thank you for the warning."

perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

"Careful!" Razisus warns. "The area is entrapped! Portions of the barricade have been rigged to collapse and immediately bury victims with a barrage of heavy stones and jagged metals! Look for the trip wires and cut them if you can."

"Well of course it's going to be trapped!" Madcap snaps at Razisus as if it waws as obvious as breathing. "Er, point out the locations you see and I'll tell you if you are correct."

A moment later though she is darting forward.

She heads straight down the middle of the fairway not stopping for the fruit stand but just clambering over it.

quick climb (quickly haul herself atop the fruit stand: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

acrobatics (balance beam her way across said stand): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26

acrobatics (leap from the stand to the fountain): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18

climb to near the top (depending upon how tall it is of course): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13 Well, hang from the side that allows her cover anyhow. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

She has a move of 35' she tries to use as much of it as as can to secure a fountain perch with some cover.

Perception, DC20: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22

Wither nods as Razisus warns the party. She moves next to Madcap and tries to take cover behind the fountain.
