Seven Dooms over Sandpoint Round-Robin [PF2e]

Game Master Aeshuura

Can we bring in Doc here? Maybe he's in the inn?

Yes. In case, he is not following along, I will ping him in the recruitment thread.

I am still not seeing how to add the token, so I saw something that said to create a sign in and I am trying that, but it needs new permission from you to join.

Oh yeah, I think I might have made a token for you. Hold on, and let me check!

EDIT: Gave you access and put on the token that I had made for you!

Blissfully unaware of the mortal combat near the Cathedral, Lucien has spent the last few moments gathering lost and dropped items from bystanders who fled the initial goblin attacks in terror. He's filled up his coin purse and is about to help himself to another plate of the White Deer's seasoned venison when the scream breaks his reverie.

"That's a little too close for comfort," he thinks to himself moving to the outer veranda of the inn to get a closer look at the commotion.

We will say that it is grouped with your starting funds for now. ^_^

We will say that it is grouped with your starting funds for now. ^_^

This is perfectly fine with me, and perhaps some of the equipment also.

Are we in initiative already?

There's no narrative, but I can assume from the map the goblins are attacking that man.

Seeing the goblins assaulting a civilian, Lucien acts not so much to save the man as from a sense of self-preservation. He unslings his short bow, advances to hide behind the edge of the doorway, waiting to fire until he sees how the others respond, and what options are open to him.

A little soft for first action, but Lucien won't fight for the sake of fighting, there will have to be something in it for him...

1) Stride - 25' to the space indicated. Thinking that is a doorway or some other obstacle to Hide behind. Maybe not.
2) Interact - to draw and ready shortbow
3) Hide - provided there is something to cover behind. GM rolls secret Stealth check to determine just how hidden he is. (Lucien is +6 Stealth).

Once she spots trouble ahead, Mira doesn't hesitate. She bursts into a full sprint, pumping her legs and charging ahead toward the goblins. "STOP! Leave him alone!" she shouts out as she tries to bring her warhammer down on the mounted creature.

Placing her between green and orange so that the party can attack the closer creature if need be.

◈◈Sudden Charge: 1H Warhammer: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22 Damage B: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
◈Attack: 1H Warhammer: 1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (14) + 9 - 5 = 18 Damage B: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

"What is happening here! Are Goblins trying to take over this city"?

Mangrove spots an old cat skeleton against the wall and sends it barreling towards the goblin in front of him.

NOTE: I'm colorblind so naming the color of the goblin doesn't help me much. :-) Perhaps you could click and label or just adjust as needed.

◆ Stride
◆◆ Telekinetic Projectile
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19 Old cat skeleton against a building launch
2d6 ⇒ (3, 2) = 5 Piercing damage

Good to know. Green is to her right, she's leaving that one and attacking orange, the mounted one to her left.

The yelp draws your attention, and you see a dandy of a man and his poodle barking at a handful of goblins! One of those goblins sits astride a rat-like hairless dog, and points menacingly with a halberd-like polearm!

Lucien moves forward and hides behind a pair of rain barrels outside a shop! The goblins do not seem to notice him...

Mangrove shambles forward and hurls a cat skeleton with his mind at Green!

Mira surges forward and crushes the goblin commando once, twice!

Reeling with the sudden assault, the goblin commando whirls in his seat to face his new combatant! Spurring his mount, it shifts back and the goblin swings hard at Mira with its horsechopper!

Horsechopper 1: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Horsechopper 1: 1d20 + 8 - 5 ⇒ (1) + 8 - 5 = 4
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Shaken from the assault, the goblin can't seem to pull itself together and swings panicked, missing wildly!

"I'm with you, Mira."

Snag moves forward and raises his shield.

Stride x2, Ready Shield.

Yellow goblin's fear and hatred of dogs takes priority to the new threat that had just arrived. Perhaps, having his brothers between them and himself gave him that extra ounce of courage. He draws his bow taut and looses a pair of arrows into the dog! 3d20 ⇒ (16, 3, 6) = 25 1d6 ⇒ 4

Only one of his arrows found its mark, the commotion nearby distracting him enough to force a couple of misses!

Red goblin comes at Anthony in a fury! Dogslicer, 3x: 3d20 ⇒ (16, 4, 8) = 28 +8/+4/+0 => 24, 8, 8 Only one hit! Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Green goblin carefully repositions himself making his way
into a flanking position with the rider! With a slash... ◆ Shift, ◆ Shift, ◆ Strike
Dogslicer: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26 With the flank, that is a critical hit! Damage with Backstaber: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 10 damage to Mira!

EDIT: Mangrove, are you still at 15 hp or did you heal up between combats?

Lucien leans over the water barrel he is hiding behind and fires his shortbow once at the green goblin who is about 45' away. The halfling thinks he has made a clean shot firing precisely from what he hopes is a hidden spot.

Not sure if Green Goblin is off-guard against Lucien, but its likely. If so add sneak attack dmg below. If the attack kills the goblin, Lucien will move and hide, if it does not, he will fire again.

Lucien shortbow vs Green: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
Shortbow dmg: 1d6 ⇒ 1
Sneak Attack dmg, if off-guard: 1d6 ⇒ 3

If Green is still upright:
Lucien fires a second time at the pesky goblin.

Lucien shortbow vs Green, 2nd attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13
2nd strike dmg, if necessary and a hit: 1d6 ⇒ 2

If Green is taken down by first strike
Lucien does an internal celebration at dropping the first target. Maybe that nobleman has means to reward me for helping him. he thinks, as he slinks along the side of the structure to the corner of the building, trying to hide again behind boxes set on the sidewalk outside.

Lucien is +6 to Stealth trying to hide if enough cover is present.

With the whole Colorblind thing I'm not sure which one Lucien just attacked... so please feel free to pick a target if I choose the wrong one.

◆ Stride
◆◆ Telekinetic Projectile. (A piece of roofing that fell from a nearby roof).
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24 TP
2d6 ⇒ (3, 5) = 8 Slashing damage on Commando.

also @Snag or DM... could you add your name to the token so I won't attack you by mistake :-)

Sorry Mangrove, I attacked the one nearest me and SE of Mira.

Lucien pops out from behind his hiding spot and his arrow finds its mark! The little goblin falls, gurgling from the arrow in its throat! Green is dead! Then the little halfling scurries to a new hiding place! Go ahead and move yourself.

Mangrove whips a roofing tile at the goblin cavalry, crushing its chest in! Commando is dead, Rat dog still combatant! Replacing token with rat dog!

OR says there is a regional outage and the map isn't loading, so I can't see what to attack. I assume I can hit something twice with a stride as needed.

Mira was caught offguard by the backstab and cries out loudly in pain. As blood pours from the wound, Mira pushes through the pain. She can feel the intensity of the fight coursing through her veins. Through clenched teeth she yells "Not today, goblin scum!"

Warhammer: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27 Damage B: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Warhammer: 1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (14) + 9 - 5 = 18 Damage B: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

With two swift hits, Mira makes short work of the rat dog menacing her!

Stepping over its corpse, the guard moves up to the remaining two goblins!

Okay, the poodle looks like it is guarding the dandy. You saw the goblins attack it. Do you still want to attack it?

Red goblin's eyes grow wide and its veins turn black! A moment later the goblin coughs up black blood! -5 hp to Red!

"Don't hurt the poodle, man!" cries Lucien, afraid that any reward goes down the drain if the group actually kills the thing they are trying to save.

Okay, the poodle looks like it is guarding the dandy. You saw the goblins attack it. Do you still want to attack it?

<snip>

No. I totally misunderstood. Direct the attack to the Red Goblin.

I thought it might be a misunderstanding. I think I wasn't quite clear on what was happening, so I felt it was only fair to get clarification! ^_^

Anthony's follow-up swing comes down, but the shifty goblins rolls out of the way, just in time!

Snag throws more black lightning and strikes the two remaining goblins "No eat the dog!" Snag yells at the two goblins thinking they are looking for dinner.

Cast x2 Electric Arc at Yellow and Red goblin and then raise shield.

Basic Reflex Save 17: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

The Red goblin, out of pure desperation, hurls itself aside, clearing the arc of lightning completely! The Yellow goblin, on the other hand stands laughing at its friend and is hit dead center of its chest, heaving as it gasps for breath... Red gets a critical success for no damage, Yellow fails and takes 5 damage!

Yellow goblin squeaks as Mira steps up and slashes at the human twice!
Dogslicer 1: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2
Dogslicer 2: 1d20 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 7 - 4 = 20 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1 Mira takes 1 damage!

Seeing that it hasn't done much to the young guard, it runs away screaming! Mira may take a Reactive Strike!

Red goblin spits out some dirt as he pulls himself up from the ground flavor text, wasn't actually prone. Seeing Anthony stand above him, he stabs at the warpriest with a facade of bravado!

Dogslicer 1: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5
Dogslicer 2: 1d20 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 7 - 4 = 18 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1 Anthony takes a total of 6 hp!
Dogslicer 3: 1d20 + 7 - 8 ⇒ (12) + 7 - 8 = 11 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Each hit feeds the little goblin's ego and spurs him on, but when the last strike plinks off Anthony's armor, he looks up at the grim cleric and gives a worried grin...

The poodle continues to bark, staying protectively before the cowering nobleman...

Mira doesn't let the retreating goblin flee without paying for turning its back on her. As soon as it's turned around, she slams the Warhammer down into it.

Feeling a surge of relief from Anthony, (she will need to thank him later), she heaves her warhammer and slams it down on the last goblin. Repeatedly.

Warhammer: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24 Damage B: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Warhammer: 1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (15) + 9 - 5 = 19 Damage B: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Mira's warhammer makes short work of the remaining two goblins, leaving Anthony to heal her by calling upon his deity...

The poodle's barks slowly quiet as the nobleman steps forward, Oh, thank you, thank you! You saved me!

Looking around at all of you, the young dandy shakes each of your hands, hesitating only slightly before shaking Snag's. Coming upon Mangrove, he shows intense curiosity, Oh, you are amazing! Are you truly alive?

Meanwhile, Mira and Anthony hear the poodle make a quiet whimper and lick its fresh wound, but the nobleman does not seem to notice...

Around you, the sounds of battle are dying down and at the end of the street, you see Kusano leading a fire brigade to put out a fire at Pillbug's Pantry, the town alchemist's shop...

Combat over.

"Strange goblins attack in day time." Snag says as he looks at the fallen goblins and wonders what drove them to such a brash attack on such a large city.

Anthony will treat the wounded.

Treat Wounds on the Poodle: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16for: 2d8 ⇒ (2, 8) = 10

Treat Wounds on Mira: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19for: 2d8 ⇒ (5, 8) = 13

Treat Wounds on myself: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26for: 4d8 ⇒ (5, 4, 3, 3) = 15

Okay, you can use Battle Medicine on yourself and the Poodle, but Mira will take a full 10 minutes, since you used Battle Medicine on her at the end of the last combat.

Anthony quickly treats the poodle and cleans her wound, causing her to bestow many doggie kisses, while he treats himself. Then he turns his attention on Mira...

Depending on whether Mira will wait to be treated or head off to find Sheriff Hemlock first, is up to her... ^_^

"Hey mister!" Lucien calls out walking over toward the well-dressed gentleman. "We just save you and your dog. Maybe there's a reward in it for us, eh?"

Hw winks knowingly at the man, and motions to the others to gather round.

The nobleman excitedly replies, Of course! Of course!

He fumbles around in his pouch and produces a handful of silvers, This is all I have now, but meet me tomorrow evening for dinner at the Rusty Dragon and I will reward you all properly! Oh, I nearly forgot! I am Aldern Foxglove! What are your names?

After getting your names, he drops 5 silvers into Lucien's hand and bids you all adieu! The poodle seems reluctant to leave Anthony's side, but Foxglove takes her by the collar, Come now, Fifi! Time to go back to the inn!

Mira was injured and needed to report in, but she wasn't about to abandon her friends and those in need when goblins had attacked at every turn so far. She waited until Anthony could assist her, checking in on the nobleman.

She walks up as he hands the silvers over and invites them to dinner. "Dinner? That's nice, but ..."

And he's gone.

She sighs and takes a seat, looking and listening for more sounds of trouble.

"What is going on? Why are the goblins attacking? Perhaps we should continue on patrol to make sure there are no others in need of assistance?"

Counting out the silvers, Lucien pipes up at Mira's suggestion. "I am in to help others, especially if they have coin in their pockets. A proper reward, eh? That sounds amazing!" He slips the 5 silver coins into his purse which is already more full than he imagined when the day began.

"Where to then, Sarge?"

Mira looks confused at the rogue's words.

She watches him pocket the previous reward and adds "Speaking of coin. If the nobleman paid that to all of us for saving him, shouldn't you distribute those among the participants involved?"

She furrows her brow and crosses her arms on her chest, and says "Wait. And, we're not out here to save people for coin. Our town was under attack, and people's lives were at stake!"

"Snag happy to save people, but dinner is nice too. Rewards seem good. Snag thinks we should talk and share silver as we go." Snag says with a smile.

Lucien seems a little taken aback by the request from Mira and Snag to share the reward. He has not worked in a group setting before and doesn't think to split the take until he's already pocketed it.

"Oh, yeah," Lucien says looks more than a little embarrassed. "A share for everyone, no problem." He takes out four of the silvers and gives one to Mangrove, Mira, Snag and Anthony. "I'm Lucien, by the way, and that was nicely done with the goblins, quick work of it. Chop chop." He smiles in a charming way at the others, eager to forget his faux pas.

To Mira, who he sees in guard regalia, he says, "You may be in it to save the town, protect the realm and all that. But I'm not. A chance to earn coin and other rewards is why I stepped in. Sounds like we'll get some too, so worth it. You can save your 'town-saving' for the rest of the Watch. A full purse and a full belly are all I'm after." He pats is rather fully tummy at the last, still filled up from free fare at the town's pubs.

Mira nodding in understanding, sees Sheriff Hemlock at the end of the street working with some of the guard to secure the rest of the town and excuses herself. To allow you all to move along with RP, if you like, or we can jump ahead to the next day...

BTW Mangrove could use some of his bark reattached and the sap flow stopped while you're handing out medicine checks. :-) Trees heal too...

Treat Wounds on Mangrove: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19for: 2d8 ⇒ (5, 7) = 12 healing.

Sorry, the last GM announcement (11:08 Wednesday) didn't list any damage on Mangrove.

Oop, forgot to make that note!

As things die down, it seems that the immediate threat is over. People are scrambling about putting out various fires that were set by groups of goblins. Sheriff Hemlock debriefs with his guards, praising Mira's initiative, eliciting a hurrah from the guard corps.

Lucien finds it easy to use the commotion around to slip away if he so wishes...

Give me a, "Go!" if you want me to proceed to Part 2...

Go!

Go!

Lucien does not want to be particularly close to the sheriff, so after confirming the time and place for the meeting with the rich gentleman, he slinks back home to acquire some goods and count his earnings. He does keep an eye about town for any of the others, especially Mangrove, who tends to stick out, and watches them from a far distance as they go throughout the rest of their day.

Go
