[GD13] PF2e - 05-12: Mischief in the Maze (P3) (Inactive)

Game Master UncleFroggy

"It looksh like your group ish the one that ish caushing trouble in the Mazhe." he tells them accusingly. "You musht shtop your pranksh immediately, or elshe...." he adds but can't continue because the idea of joining the party is also nice.

"Pranks?!" Mimiko appears startled, "I'm not sure what you... " her voice trails off and she realizes who you must be referring to. Her voice hardens. "Toshiro, show yourself at once!" The mischievous tanuki and his friends step forward, but let Mimiko do the talking.

"As for the pranks, we apologize if our presence in the maze has caused any inconvenience. It is in our nature to be mischievous, but we assure you that we mean no harm. Perhaps there is a way for us to find a compromise, so we can all enjoy the maze together. I think I have a solution."

"Ooo, I'm all for good pranks, too, as long as no real harm is done. Heehee!" She reaches into the folds of her sweater dress and offers a hard caramel wrapped in paper. "Candy for your thoughts? Lay it on us, Mimiko! Heehee!"

Savan keeps his hands from his rifle to show that he isn't ready to attack. "We might be able to convince the Society not to bear any ill will. What do you have in mind?"

Mimiko takes the sweet and sucks on it. "Mmmm! This is delightful! Well, there's really only one way to settle this. I think a fair contest would be appropriate to determine who gets to decide whether we should stay or go. As for what that contest should be, there’s only one honorable way to settle the matter!" As usual, Kenta takes a swig from his mug and echoes Mimiko’s words, "Yes, one way only!" Mimiko continues, "And that way is a dance-off!" Kenta nearly chokes on his sake and retorts, "What did you say, Mimiko? A dance-off? I say trial by combat is the only way!" Mimiko looks at Toshiro and his prankster friends, who merely shrug, then at you. "Strangers, looks like it’s up to you to decide. What will it be?"

Decide as a group which one is it?

"I can play mushic, but danching? Maybe I can try." Griphook looks to Mimiko's party and then to the Pathfinders.

Savan looks aghast at the idea of dancing, but turns to the others. "I'm not a dancer at all, though I'm generally light on my feet. But is it just better than trying to hurt each other? Do we all have to dance, or can we just send just one as a dance champion?"

Norbwald takes another swig before passing the bag to Mrs. Crinkle.

"My old bones are tired of running, trial by combat might do us better."

"Why not both! Dance and fight at the same time! Heehee!" Mrs. Crinkle takes a deep pull from Norbwald's bag and passes it back to him. "Ooo, that's mighty fine! Puts the fire in me--hoo! Now, I suggest a good ol' fashioned brawl, with bonus points for anyone who does a little dance while they're fighting. That may be a little too complicated to pull off on short notice, but wouldn't it be fun? Heehee!"

Mrs. Crinkle votes for fighting, but she's going to do some dancing too, one way or another.

Zelphari looks down at his two left feet and frowns.

"Much as I have no intention of causing any hurt for what was just a prank, however ill-natured it might have been, I'm afraid that dance and my feet are not really well acquainted with each other."

Savan unslings his rifle. "I mean, if you want trial by combat, ok. It's gonna get loud."

We're choosing combat? Savan is better at that anyway, I just didn't think he's choose to shoot anyone on a whim.

Kenta harumphs and puffs his chest, then proudly announces, "And so shall it be! The matter will be settled in a trial by combat! The rules are simple. The fight takes place in a fighting ring. You do not fight to kill—only to prove who is better. When a fighter goes down, they’re out. When a fighter voluntarily leaves the ring, they’re out. When a fighter gets knocked out of the ring, they’re out. That’s all. I suggest you get ready. We’ll begin shortly."

TLDR Summary:
* Fighting Ring is the red bordered area (you have to be within the "ring"
* All damage is nonlethal.
* 0 hp is "dead"
* Step out of the ring, you're considered dead
* Last man standing wins

You have 10 minutes to prepare.

You may rearrange yourselves if you wish. MAP

"Whoa, this is a pretty small ring. But fine, it'll do " Savan checks that his rifle is loaded and prepares for the onslaught.

What are we fighting? Tanukis?

Norbwald nods as he chair carried him into the arena.

"Ooo! Heehee!" Mrs. Crinkle does a little dance of joy (ironic, isn't it?) as she bustles to the fighting ring. She makes a point to stand beside Norbwald she she can "prepare" by helping him try to find the bottom of his flask.

It's not all fun and games. She straps her shield onto her arm and does some stretching. "Old muscles get tight easily. It's hard to party when you're hobbling from a pulled hamstring, dearies. Heehee!"

She's as ready as she can be without pre-raging.

Griphook awkwardly enters the ring to fight, his flute ready to play it.

"Whoa, this is a pretty small ring. But fine, it'll do " Savan checks that his rifle is loaded and prepares for the onslaught.

What are we fighting? Tanukis?

Yep!

While you prepare, the tanuki build a fighting ring with stones. Toshiro and his friends huddle for a strategy session. When all is in readiness Kenta bids both parties to enter the ring. Once he sees that both parties are ready, he yells "FIGHT!"

Assumption here is that everyone has weapons drawn. Also with the 10 minutes they gave you, your hp are back to full (either medicine checks or doing shots from Norbwald's flask! :) )

Toshiro grins, holding a shuriken in each hand. Target as listed above: 1d5 ⇒ 1 He hurls both at his intended target.

Shuriken vs Griphook AC 19, OG: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19 for Piercing: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 plus Sneak (Toshiro only): 1d6 ⇒ 5
Shuriken vs Griphook AC 19, OG, MAP, Agile: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17 for Piercing: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 plus Sneak (Toshiro only): 1d6 ⇒ 5

"No offense small one!" he calls before pulling a third throwing star out of his pouch.

Zelphari would like to have cast False Vitality to refresh his temp HP, i.e. 10 thp.

Although wielding his bastard sword, Zelphari had kept one hand free. The reason becomes quickly evident, as he steps forward and attempts to shove Suzu out of the arena!

vs Suzu (white): shove, athletics vs fort DC: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17 Bah...

He follows up almost immediately with the same tactic, although with some surer footing this time.

If the above attempt failed, he'll try again with Suzu (white). If it succeeded, then he'll try with Kagebashi (green).

vs (see above): shove, athletics (assurance) vs fort DC: 18 = 18

Sure, I'll let you do that in the last second before Kenta yelled 'FIGHT!'

Zelphari steps up to Suzu and gives her a push, but his feet slip at the last instant. Suzu grins cheekily "Nice tryyy... EEEEK!" her mischievous taunt turns into a scream as Zelphari shoves her clear out of the ring!

The watching tanuki gasp and cheer at the dramatic turn of events! Toshiro facepalms...

Argh. That's what I get for changing how I display my maps mid-game. I'll fix that.

Fixed - I was streamlining my maps so that I link everything to the slide deck to keep only one set. I've been doing this with some of my games but my older games still have the old layout

Savan admires Zelphari's technique. "Hey, that's pretty smart. But I don't have the strength for that. I'll settle for this." He raises his rifle and fires on the tanuki in the corner.

Attack vs Red: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7 +1 electricity damage

Attack vs Red: 1d20 + 10 - 5 ⇒ (13) + 10 - 5 = 18

◇ Energy Shot
◆ Strike vs Red
◆ Thoughtful Reload (Society+6?)
◆ Strike vs Red

Savan admires Zelphari's technique but opts for his technique instead, putting a bullet in Toshiro's shoulder. Toshiro yelps in pain. "Hey! Not fair! What did we ever do to you?! No, wait, don't answer that!!"

Norbwald looks for weakness in Mochi.

Exploit Vulnerability vs Mochi(Yellow) level DC: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25

Also, if that is at least a success vs it's Knowledge DC, I get info as though I succeded from Diverse Lore

Norbwald follows up with their Flickmace against Mochi.

flickmace vs Yellow: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26
b damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
+ At least Weakness 3

Twice.

flickmace vs Yellow: 1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (15) + 9 - 5 = 19
b damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
+ At least Weakness 3

On the off chance Mochi is down, Norbwald will sip instead for 3 temp HP

Norbwald attempts to determine whether Mochi has a weakness.

Nothing remarkable, so regular +3

He whacks her twice but she remains standing.

Mochi sniffs. "You are going up against the best dancer here!" She begins to dance, inspiring the other tanuki (Courageous Anthem)

She smiles shyly at Zelphari... then punches him twice...

Fist vs Zelphari AC 21, CA: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 10 + 1 = 27 for Bludgeoning: 1d4 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 1 = 8

"Oops. Sorry." she says mischievously.

Tonta steps up to Norbwald and makes some martial arts gestures. Surprisingly, he unleashes a pair of quick strikes at Norbwald's face!

Flurry, Fist vs Norbwald AC 20, CA: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 10 + 1 = 16 for Bludgeoning: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Flurry, Fist vs Norbwald AC 20, CA, MAP, Agile: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 1 = 13 for Bludgeoning: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Tonta steps back to stay out of the way of any retribution.

Kagebashi moves into the flank set up by Mochi. He braces both hands at his side, before thrusting them forward at Zelphari, yelling "HADOKEN!" as he does so.

Kinetic Strike vs Zelphari, OG, CA: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 1 = 18 for Electricity, CA: 1d4 + 4 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 4 + 1 = 13

DC 19 Performance to Lingering Composition: 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 12 + 1 = 27 w Virtuosic Performer Success, 3 rounds of Courageous Anthem!

He then hurls unattended shears against Mochi!

"Heeheehee!" Mrs. Crinkle giggles as she swells into a silver-furred wolf once again. She flashes a quick sultry pose in her ridiculously-itsy-bitsy sweater dress, then lunges forward to snap and swipe at Tonta.

Bite: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26
Piercing damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

"Aaaaawooooooooo!"

◇ Quick Tempered (Rage), ◆ Step, ◆ Strike, ◆ Raise Shield, ↺ Shield Block (AC 22)

Mrs Crinkle transforms into her wolf form. She moves up and chomps down on Tonta's arm, causing the tanuki to yell in pain.

Toshiro moves up to Griphook and gives him a shove.

Athletics vs DC 16: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Annoyed that the goblin doesn't move. Toshiro tries to punch him in the face instead.

Fist vs Griphook AC 19, MAP, Agile, CA: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 1 = 11 for Bludgeoning: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

"Do it again, Zelphari!" Savan takes a risk in reloading his rifle and then turns to fire on Toshiro again.

Normal Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 +1 Acid

Toshiro yelps as Savan puts a bullet into his meaty thigh. "Hey that wasn't very nice of you! I'll admit that seeing this man, pointing to Zelphari, almost drop into the pit I rigged was kinda hilarious, don't you think?"

Norbwald continues to bonk Mochi and bonks her between the eyes as she turns back to him, knocking her clean out. He turns to Toshiro and manages to knock him out as well. As Toshiro falls, the remaining two tanuki let out a groan but still keep fighting.

Several tanuki watching from the sidelines take the opportunity to drag their sleeping brethren out of the ring to begin waking them up...

"Bonk!" exclaims Norbwald, seemingly in a good mood for the first time in awhile.

Fortunately, Griphook manages to stand his ground and evade Toshiro's punch. He also gives Norbwald a nod of approval for taking down Toshiro.

It seems that with assurance, Zelphari can pretty much just shove all the tanuki out with enough time, but that kind of trivialises the encounter. And it is quite fun anyway, so don't mind I won't do that?

Despite himself, Zelphari starts grinning as the combat continues. Much as the tanuki have been irritating, he finally acknowledges that it is out mischief (although not entirely harmless). Seeing the battle clearly in the party's favour, he also loathes to end it too quickly.

Turning to face the as yet unharmed Kagebashi, he calls out, "Tell your friend when he wakes that no I did not find it hilarious!" He makes no attempt at being intimidating, however, as he grins ear-to-ear. He pushes out his free hand and yells, "Kamehameha!" A glowing club burst forth from his hand to slam into the tanuki, before dissipating into the thin air!

Cast imaginary weapon (amped), but just one target

vs green: imaginary weapon, CA: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 10 + 1 = 22
bludgeoning: 4d8 + 1 ⇒ (6, 8, 8, 8) + 1 = 31

(I believe that takes him out? If he hits? If not, change the below to cast Shield)

He then turns and strides to Tonta with an evil grin on his face (although he's laughing inside), and whispers, "You're next..."

◆◆ Cast Spell: Imaginary Weapon (Amped)
◆ Stride

Zelphari smacks Kagebashi with a mystical weapon and knocks the wind out of him. He then moves to Tonta with an evil grin on his face.

Kagebashi sees spots before his eyes and steps out of the ring in surrender. Tonta sees he's the only one left. He sets his jaw, determined to take one of you down with him. He suddenly breaks into a run and circles over to Griphook and gives him a shove.

Athletics, Shove vs DC 16: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17

Triumphantly, he manages to shove Griphook out of the ring! The other tanuki roar with delight. Tonta turns and tries to punch Norbwald twice.

Flurry, Fist vs Norbwald AC 20, MAP, Agile: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15 for Bludgeoning: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Flurry, Fist vs Norbwald AC 20, MAP 2+, Agile: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22 for Bludgeoning: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Looks like Leggy's HP got marked down instead of Norbwald. Will get a real post up in a bit

oops. though I'm not sure if it'll matter since it's now 4v1!

Griphook is pushed out of the ring, much to his relief, if he will be honest.

"Ok, let's finish this." Savan reloads his rifle and fires at the last one. Something on the wind shifts though and his shot goes wide.

Attack: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 10 + 1 = 14
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

◆ Reload
◆ Strike
◆ Reload

You wanna HP that?

Zelphari glances briefly at Griphook to make sure he's ok, then dashes around to flank Tonta. And again, another club made of force manifests to strike at the tanuki before disappearing.

Cast imaginary weapon (amped), but just one target

vs blue (offguard): imaginary weapon, CA: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 10 + 1 = 16
bludgeoning: 4d8 + 1 ⇒ (4, 3, 8, 3) + 1 = 19

◆ Stride
◆◆ Cast Spell: Imaginary Weapon (Amped)
◆ Stride

Good point. Let's finish this.

Hero Point (bard): 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 10 + 1 = 27
I forgot the +1 to damage. Total damage should be 7.

What Savan didn't consider, however, is Tonta trying to pre-emptively dodge out the way. Tonta throws himself back, unfortunately right into the path of the bullet.

That's it... I'll close this out tomorrow and release your chronicles :)

As her teammates pummel Tonta, Mrs. Wolfy Crinkle begins showing off her shopping cart dance. In her head, it looks like this, but it comes out more like this.

"AAAAAAAWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! We've got the moves! Heehee!"

Sorry, ended up GMing a game last minute last night and didn't get a real post in, glad others could finish it out.

Tonta's eyes widen as the imaginary weapon flies at him. The moment before it hits, he squeezes his eyes shut. The weapon hits and knocks the wind out of him. It pushes him back, right into Savan's line of fire...

The watching tanuki roar and groan at almost the same time. They have clearly enjoyed the spectacle though are disappointed at the loss of Toshiro and his friends.

Mimiko charges forward, accompanied by other tanuki elders, who heal everyone.

"You have won, " Mimiko says, "Our fate is in your hands. However, if we promise to restrict our pranks to our enclave, will you let us stay in the Maze?"

"Yes! We promise!" other tanuki chime in.

Your decision :)
