GM Tyranius (PF2) Gameday XII Blessings of the Forest (Inactive)

Game Master Tyranius

You're an idiot Luciola calls back, now glowing red. If you're claiming superiority cause you're an elf, lemme point out that the fae have been around longer. By that logic, WE should rule ..... but we choose to live in peace.

Medicine, treat wounds, DC20@Zabu: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (19) + 14 = 33
Healing: 4d8 + 10 ⇒ (3, 2, 7, 6) + 10 = 28

Makai heals Zabu before they get to the spot, as they do. She prays to Torag for his blessing. Casts Heroism on self

And raises her shield.

I don't think we are on the map, so I will focus on buffs.

Yup, your tokens shifted under the map. I got it all fixed now.

That healing brought everyone to full.

Makai feels heroic as she shields herself, not knowing exactly what to expect.

The winged demon flies straight at you before landing on the ground. It's demonic wings flutter as grim lines of negative energy sap across the ground at most of your feet.

Grim Tendrils (Zabu, Zenith, Sznark, and Teja) Negative Damage: 8d4 ⇒ (3, 3, 3, 1, 4, 3, 4, 4) = 25 DC 26 Basic Fort Save + 4 Persistent Bleed Damage

As the negative energy saps your energy you feel the demons life-stealing gaze sap you actual life-force.

Death-Stealing Gaze- Anyone that ends their turn within 30' of Yellow must make a DC 23 Fort Save or become Drained 1.

Reflex: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (3) + 15 = 18

"Dang elves..." Sznark says.

He gets a headache from the spell.

Crit on save.. wow.

Makai blocks the first strike but the second hits her hard. She heals herself Shield block: hardness 8 BT 32 - minor sturdy shield

Heal: 3d8 + 24 ⇒ (2, 8, 3) + 24 = 37

Than she strikes the creature

Damage,b: 2d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4, 8) + 4 + 1 = 17

Reaction: Reactive shield +2 to Ac

@Makai- There was only 4 damage left to block after on the first strike due to Zenith's Champion ability. Did you wish to block the 4 damage or the crit?

Sznark feels a bit of backlash while Makai heals herself first. Makai tries to take teh dmon down but misses as it is just too quick for her hammer.

The flying demon descends, landing next to Makai as she is the closest, biting at her as it locks eyes with Teja.

Jaws vs Makai AC 28: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (17) + 20 = 37
Damage: 2d12 + 9 ⇒ (2, 9) + 9 = 20

Zenith rushes towards the brimorak and attempts to tumble underneath the flaming sword and between the creature's legs.

Tumble Through Vs GREEN Reflex DC: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (16) + 16 = 32 based on prior rolls, success -> gain panache

Once on the other side of the brimorak, Zenith stares down Nathatel and throws their starknife as hard as they can. Stars, guide me!

The starknife sings through the air as it shoots across the field.

**HOUSE GM ANNOUNCEMENT**

Your tireless assault has pushed back the invaders. Across the battlefield, the demons that remain are seeking a path to retreat. “Don’t let your guard down”, Fola calls out over the chaos. “I don’t think they’re going to give up just yet.”

GMs, this is your one day warning before the transition to Part 4.

Fortitude: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (19) + 19 = 38

"Oh, it's on!" Zabu replies and charges down Nathatel.

◆◆ Sudden Charge Jaws(Raging): 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (19) + 17 = 36
Piercing: 2d12 + 6 + 5 ⇒ (1, 12) + 6 + 5 = 24 plus Persistent Bleed: 1d6 ⇒ 6

"Let's see how good your spell casting is when you're flat on your @$$!" he says, sweeping the leg.

Athletics (Trip): 1d20 + 19 + 2 - 5 ⇒ (17) + 19 + 2 - 5 = 33

If that's a crit - Trip damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Then rips into him with his claws.

Claw (Raging): 1d20 + 17 - 8 ⇒ (3) + 17 - 8 = 12
Slashing: 2d8 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (3, 8) + 6 + 2 = 19 plus Persistent Bleed: 1d6 ⇒ 1

"We will have to finish this later Pathfinders." Nathatel gloats. he grabs a small pendant around his neck as it glows brightly. A small tear in reality swirls around him whisking him away to parts unknown.

The remaining demons use this distraction to flee and cause ensuing chaos elsewhere.

Out of Combat due to the one day warning per the scenario.

Without Nathatel to direct the demons, they begin to fall back. The town defenders and Pathfinders rally and kill the remaining forces. Folien is safe.

"Excellent work, everyone." Fola Barun waves you over. "The town is safe for now, but we still need to find the leader of this attack."

The silversmith's apprentice, Iarrin approaches. "We'll form a searching party. They couldn't have gotten far."

Marilindae approaches you, holding a large blue gem from a necklace around his neck. "I saw it. Nathatel Zephon. That fool. These Pathfinders nearly struck him down, but he escaped somehow." He turns to you. "Please, let Yuelral bless your recovery." With a flash of light, the gem is consumed, and a wave of energy washes over you.

Each of you may select one of the following benefits.

Healing: The light provides the benefits of a 2-action >heal< spell (heightened to 5th rank.)
Focus: The energy restores all of the PCs, expended Focus Points, up to their maximum.
Magic: The light restores one previously expended memorized spell or spell slot of each level the PC is capable of casting.
Mending: The light completely repairs one broken object, restoring it to its maximum HP and increasing its Hardness by 2 for the remainder of the scenario.

In addition, you have 10 minutes for downtime activity like Repair or Treat Wounds.

In addition to Marilindae’s magic, several grateful merchants are among the citizens accompanying him. They offer each PC one common magical or alchemical consumable item with an item level up to the PC’s level.

"I'll take it," Zabu says as the light washes over him and heals his wounds.

That'll take me back up to full with no roll needed.

He also liked how being fast made him feel so when someone offers up a black container with three green claw marks painted on it, he takes that.

I'll take a Potion of Quickness as my consumable.

Reactive shield value! wooo, hit and not a crit

Makai also takes the healing letting the magic to restore her wounds as she works to fix her shield.

I can heal others if needed, I will do the roll below and if anyone want to relay on Makai's healing they can

I'll take one of the treat wounds; the 15; I'll refocus

Grumbling, Sznark refocuses and fine tunes his instrument.

"He's not getting away next time!" he says.

He swallows two of his lesser healing potions.

heal: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (6, 6) + 5 = 17
heal: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (7, 4) + 5 = 16

He'll take a moderate healing potion.

As the light washes over her, Teja finds her small supply of magic is restored.
I'll take the spell restoration. And use treat wounds on myself in the down time. Is there a potion of restoration or something similar that can help with the drained condition?
treat wounds(expert,assurance): 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (6, 4) + 10 = 20

4 persist -> 67/99
1d20 ⇒ 15 recovers

Zenith accepts the light washing over them. Healing benefit brings Zenith to full without rolling. Zenith then prays to the stars during the 10 minutes refocus.

Looking through the supplies, they grab a moderate healing potion.

I'll take the magic thank you Luciola says as she lands on Teja's shoulder again.

She then drinks a Lesser healing potion.
healing: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (8, 5) + 5 = 18

@Teja- You would need a 4th rank of Restoration to get rid of the Drained. I am not aware of any potions or elixirs.

That with Makai's treat wounds is enough to bring everyone to full.

**HOUSE GM ANNOUNCEMENT**

“On your feet, Pathfinders!” Eando Kline shouts, gathering the assembled agents where they sit recovering from the battle. “That smith’s apprentice is a sharp young elf and spotted Nathatel through a window in the temple to Yuelral near the center of town. What’s worse, they said he wasn’t alone. They had to duck out of sight before they could get a good look at his companion, but... well let’s just say they described lots of horns and teeth and such.”

“That temple is a center of powerful magic keeping this region of Kyonin safe.” Viore Ciobanu adds. “I don’t know what that traitor and his companion are up to, but I fear the ramifications could be dire. We must hurry to reclaim the temple!” With that, he leads the assembled company quickly to the temple, the exterior of which seems largely unaffected.

Eando glances carefully at the front door then, satisfied that it’s safe, he throws it open to reveal a shocking sight within. The peace and beauty that once filled this space have been utterly destroyed, replaced by carnage, death, and destruction. Bloody animal pelts lie discarded and draped over smashed and broken pews, and elven corpses lie crumpled in the aisles. Around the room, bright, colorful crystals have been smashed, littering the ground with razor-sharp shards. What were once large sets of wind chimes in all shapes and sizes are now twisted and rent scrap metal and broken wood. The walls drip with fiendish sigils painted in blood.

“Ah, there are the meddling outsiders this fool was mewling about.” A cruel voice calls out from the front of the temple. Standing behind the temple is an imposing figure, her jaws and antlers dripping with blood. She holds a cruel dagger with a jagged, blackened blade aloft in one hand, the other pinning the elf who led the assault outside to the altar. “Thank you for delivering my sacrifice to me.” She says, grinning down at the struggling figure on the altar. “You all played your parts perfectly.”

“Serraleth, no! This wasn’t our deal!” The squirming figure cries. “You need me!”

“You’re right, Nathatel.” She says, plunging the dagger into his chest. “I couldn’t do it without you.”

As the elf’s blood drips down the sides of the altar, a sphere of sickly green energy springs up, surrounding the dais. As Serraleth begins an incantation, tendrils of black energy begin to flow in toward the altar from the desecration throughout the temple. Viore quickly hurls a spell at the fiendish figure, its effects splashing harmlessly off sphere of green energy.

“It’s no good,” Eando Kline shouts. “We have to bring down that shield if we want to stop whatever it is she’s doing! At least we seem to have interrupted before she could finish whatever it was. That should give us an advantage in trying to stop it. Pathfinders, fan out. Do whatever you can to cut off the flow of energy to that thing!”

Table GMs, please begin Part 4. The Rushed Evil condition is in effect.

"Well.. that was kinda satisfying." Sznark says, as the elf is slain.

"Well, you dance with a devil..." notes Teja.

She considers the magical energies in the area, wondering if there is anything she can do to halt them.

Likely use heroism on Zabu

Serraleth calls out from within her protective sphere, taunting the gathered Pathfinders as she continues performing her ritual. “Are you pathetic outsiders really the best Iadara could muster to oppose me? Truly this nation deserves to crumble beneath my heel!”

You can attempt to distract Serraleth from her ritual and buy some time by turning the tables on her.

Rushed Evil: will give you +2 to these skill checks.

DC 23 Deception or Intimidate | DC 21 Demon Lore to return her mockery
DC 25 Athletics or Acrobatics to demonstrate your formidable prowess
DC 25 Arcana, Nature, Occultism, or Religion to demonstrate your magical prowess
DC 23 Survival or DC 21 Hunting Lore to demonstrate your superiority as hunters.

Do I have time to cast Heroism to help Zabu with the skill checks and eventual combat?

Teja looks at the horrid sight and sighs. "I guess there is nothing more for me to do here. Just as well the Knights of Lastwall have arrived. Quick, tell them to come here."
