Reflex, bonus: 1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 20 + 1 = 29 vs DC 24
Bah, sad I didn't crit that!

"Incomingggggg!"

Quinoline will target the most damaged, unless there's some way she can tell that 3 splashes alone would kill Red and Blue (in which case she'd target White instead in that case to get the extra damage on White).

Greater Ghost Charge: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (3) + 21 = 24
Vitality: 3d8 ⇒ (4, 3, 5) = 12 plus 13 splash vitality plus enfeebled 2 (1 round) plus DC 30 vs dazzled (1 round)

Greater Ghost Charge, MAP: 1d20 + 21 - 5 ⇒ (5) + 21 - 5 = 21
Vitality: 3d8 ⇒ (3, 5, 5) = 13 plus 13 splash vitality plus enfeebled 2 (1 round) plus DC 30 vs dazzled (1 round)

Greater Ghost Charge, MAP: 1d20 + 21 - 10 ⇒ (2) + 21 - 10 = 13
Vitality: 3d8 ⇒ (7, 5, 6) = 18 plus 13 splash vitality plus enfeebled 2 (1 round) plus DC 30 vs dazzled (1 round)

Blech, that third one might have crit missed. Reminder: splash is 10' and applies to all three on a miss but not a crit miss.

Quinoline manages to avoid the worst of the damage and hurls three vials of Ghost Charge at the zombies. Two land nearest Blue but the third flies over their heads and crashes into the roof of a nearby house. (3rd one is indeed a crit miss).

C,O: 1d2 ⇒ 2

Red swings its meaty fist and targets Othello.

Fist vs Othello AC 30, E2: 1d20 + 22 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 22 - 2 = 30 for Bludgeoning Damage, E2: 2d6 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (6, 5) + 10 - 2 = 19

Othello shuts his eyes and doesn't get any of the sulfur in them. He then slashes Blue across the neck. The head drops off and Blue collapses on itself before exploding. His subsequent slashes at the other zombies do not connect.

She pulls out a wand and activating it casts a 4th lvl sound burst behind the two grouped up zombies to get them and not her party members

DC 28 Fort

DC 26 Reflex, w/bonus: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (20) + 19 = 39

Crystal avoids the fire and anatomical parts. She parkours off Red and jabs it in the arm. Unfortunately, the rapier point slips into its eye. Red folds and explodes, showering everyone with fire and more body parts.

Othello barely dives out of the way of the explosion and gets clipped by a wayward zombie arm. Crystal easily avoids the flying debris again by parkouring up a tree. Quinoline hits the deck but a wayward zombie foot dings her.

Othello retaliates on White, slashing its torso open with his halberd. White is in really bad shape but still fights on.

Reflex: 1d20 + 19 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 19 + 1 + 1 = 23 -6 fire resistance

"This will sting," Liam warns Othello. He presses part of his armor, heated, against one of his injuries. It's hot enough to cauterize the wound, but the armor also vents steam from a small chamber containing medicinal herbs. It's not entirely pleasant, but it is effective.

An important-looking gear is also ejected. "Oh. I can fix that."

Unable to keep healing, Liam turns his attention to the remaining undead.

◆ Raise Shield
◆ Searing Restoration. Othello heals healing: 5d10 ⇒ (8, 7, 3, 8, 2) = 28. And Stability check: 1d20 ⇒ 9. Failure, can't use Unstable actions.
◆ Strike borrowed battleaxe: 1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 20 + 1 = 27 for slashing: 2d8 + 13 ⇒ (3, 1) + 13 = 17, fire: 1d6 ⇒ 4, and vitality damage: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Quinoline will raise her shield and brave the fire. Can circle to the left to avoid going through any fire directly.

She'll spike a ghost charge, this time, using Sticky Bomb.

Greater Ghost Charge: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (6) + 21 = 27
Vitality: 3d8 ⇒ (2, 8, 2) = 12 plus 13 splash vitality plus enfeebled 2 (1 round) plus 13 persistent vitality

Liam doesn't avoid the exploding carnage but his armor keeps him from getting singed. He cauterizes Othello's wound before raising his shield and swinging at White, which unfortunately misses.

Quinoline hurls another ghost charge at White but it accidentally hits Liam's armor and only splatters White with it.

Atae concentrates and blasts out a wave of healing energy in a 30' emanation.

Healing: 5d8 ⇒ (6, 3, 7, 5, 1) = 22
Fort: 1d20 ⇒ 1

White collapses and explodes.
There's a two hour interval between the end of the encounter and the last one so we can handwave the medicine checks and the reflex save for the exploding zombie. Also we can finish Atae's healing font so everyone's back to full hp.

As the last zombie explodes, a local farmer emerges from the house. "Well met! I am Trinn Jovas. I had intended to join the fight but grew apprehensive shortly before the attack began and hid. You have my thanks for saving my life. Take this. It is a gift from a well-off uncle in Caliphas. It's not much but now you have inspired me to join the battle." He hands you a silver necklace.

**This piece of jewelry is a masterpiece necklace, with small sapphires accenting the piece. It's valued at 500 gp.**

One of Mahja's soldiers finds you and hands you a bag. "Mahja thinks you can use these" he says. Inside you find healing potions.

You each get two each of the highest level healing potion you have access to.
Below Lvl 12 - 2 x Moderate (3d8+10)
Lvl 12 - 2 x Greater (6d8+20)

Proposed change of strategy.

Every 2.5 minutes, Quinoline is going to create a greater mistform elixir (5 min duration), and hand it to a rotating member of the team. Assuming the GM agrees to this, at any given moment, 2 party members will be under the influence of a mistform elixir. I propose the rotation of Crystal -> Liam -> Othello -> Quinoline, which will mean that one of Crystal or Othello will have it at all times. I will block off 2 versatile vials.

No problem here. So just to understand, each round you'll be handing out a mistform elixir? So essentially at the beginning of the final encounter, everyone is concealed?

Crystal has no objections :)

No problem here. So just to understand, each round you'll be handing out a mistform elixir? So essentially at the beginning of the final encounter, everyone is concealed?

Presumably, we don't know when we enter Encounter Mode, so my proposal was only for a random half of us to be misty. But, if you're willing to allow it, Quinoline would give one out to everyone before we enter Encounter Mode, so we'd all be misty.

No issues here. So right before we go into initiative you'll all chug your mistform elixirs. Any other change in strategies? :)

Liam patches his armor, doing a field repair on the broken part.

"They are formidable," Liam says to the farmer, "but that's why we're here. Not everyone is a soldier."

Hopefully inspiring a noncombatant to join a battle isn't a bad thing...

Quinoline will give the farmer tips on how to help without putting himself in direct danger. Maybe he can keep civilians out of harm's way if the fight drifts, or put out fires that get started, or something?

Or maybe he's a champion of Erastil with Legendary proficiency with the pitchfork ... ?

Later in the battle, you cross paths with some of the powerful undead leading Geir’s army. Geir tasked several powerful wight captains and commanders to lead the charge and face off with the more powerful warriors of Urgir. Various squads of wights move throughout the fight and once such group catches wind of your success as they move through the burning wilderness.

In addition to the burning trees, the massive forest fire threatens to further harm and hamper the combatants. The dangers of the forest fire grow more dire as the combat continues.

Everyone gets a hero point. All PCs are concealed. Good luck!

A pair of wights start making their way forward.

Quinoline runs up (Sorry, that's as far as I can make it with two Strides) and spikes a bomb at Green (to splash the clustered foes)

Greater Ghost Charge: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (19) + 21 = 40
Vitality: 3d8 ⇒ (2, 1, 5) = 8 plus 13 splash vitality plus enfeebled 2 (1 round) plus DC 30 Fortitude vs dazzled (1 round)

Note: Splash isn't doubled on a crit.

Quinoline charges up and hurls a Ghost Charge bomb at Green, hitting it right in the face and splattering the other undead around it.

So far...

Liam hurries forward. Seeing one of the undead creatures so badly damaged already, he hopes to finish it off and so presses the attack before working to engage his armor.

◆ Stride
◆ Stride
◆ Strike Pink borrowed battle axe: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (13) + 19 = 32 for slashing damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (5, 6) + 6 = 17, fire damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2, and vitality damage: 1d6 ⇒ 3 (and it's enfeebled on a crit, but that seems redundant)
Since he's not in OverDrive, Liam only has resist 4 to the fire damage.
EDIT: Whoops, I never removed the level bump. Corrected the numbers in this posts, will get statblock corrected ASAP.
EDIT2: Done.

White and Blue close to within striking range, with White raising his shield. Pink lashes out at C,L,Q: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Claw vs Crystal AC 29: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (9) + 16 = 25 for Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

Red moves up, takes a swipe at Quinoline with its longsword and raises its shield.

Flat Check: 1d20 ⇒ 17
Longsword vs Quinoline AC 30: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (3) + 24 = 27 for Slashing Damage: 2d8 + 11 ⇒ (2, 5) + 11 = 18 Crit doubled to 36

I'm guessing you inserted the flat check afterward and the nat 17 to crit Quinoline became a nat 3. :)

Othello will fly 35 feet. He is now ten feet off the ground. (That means he is ten feet away from the people on the ground. There is a five foot gap between them.)

Flat 5: 1d20 ⇒ 2
+2 Holy Striking Disrupting Wounding Halberd: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (20) + 19 = 39
Holy damage: 2d10 + 5 ⇒ (6, 2) + 5 = 13 slashing plus: 1d6 ⇒ 2 positive to undead and 1d6 bleed.

Flat 5: 1d20 ⇒ 18
+2 Holy Striking Disrupting Wounding Halberd: 1d20 + 19 - 5 ⇒ (5) + 19 - 5 = 19
Holy damage: 2d10 + 5 ⇒ (10, 6) + 5 = 21 slashing plus: 1d6 ⇒ 2 positive to undead and 1d6 bleed.

I don't think you need to make flat checks, Othello. The party is concealed (from Quinoline's misform elixirs) and the enemies need a DC 5 flat check to target us.

ARGH! Yep... I forgot that you're all concealed because of the Mistform elixir. So the crit doesn't hit either way.

Red swings at Quinoline with a mighty blow that would have done grievous damage. However, Red's blow hits a branch of a nearby tree, severing it.

Nope. I tend to save Hero Points for nat 1's on saves.

We've got time <<grin>>

My bad! I missed the bolded line. :(

Crystal will try to tumble through red.
acrobatics: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (15) + 23 = 38

2 GS Flaming Corrosive Rapier: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (8) + 23 = 31
piercing: 3d6 + 3 ⇒ (1, 6, 4) + 3 = 14
corrosive: 1d6 ⇒ 1
fire: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Will raise shield after this

Crystal Flat: 1d20 ⇒ 7

Crystal parkours off Red and stabs it. Red blocks the strike with its shield and appears unharmed.

Othello flies in close and stabs at Pink. His first stab should have hit its mark but unfortunately, the smoke causes him to hit the place where Pink was. He manages to see through the smoke the second time but his stab doesn't connect.

Green raises its bow and sends three arrows at Othello

Flat: 3d20 ⇒ (12, 20, 12) = 44

Composite Longbow vs Othello AC 30, Volley, E2: 1d20 + 18 - 4 ⇒ (6) + 18 - 4 = 20 for Piercing Damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
Composite Longbow vs Othello AC 30, Volley, E2, MAP: 1d20 + 13 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 13 - 4 = 11 for Piercing Damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
Composite Longbow vs Othello AC 30, Volley, E2, MAP 2+: 1d20 + 8 - 4 ⇒ (19) + 8 - 4 = 23 for Piercing Damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

All three arrows go become kindling for the forest fire.

Yellow moves up and joins the fray, swiping at Othello.

Flat: 2d20 ⇒ (16, 2) = 18
Claw vs Othello AC 30, OG: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (3) + 17 = 20 for Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Claw vs Othello AC 30, OG, MAP, Agile: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26 for Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Yellow's claws catch nothing but air.

Oh good. Everyone's all bunched up now.
...too bad these things don't seem to care much about fire.

First, Liam tries to get his armor and other gizmos working in concert. Mostly successfully. Then he swipes at both of the creatures he can reach.

◆ OverDrive Craft: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (12) + 20 = 32 Success
◆ Strike Pink Concealed: 1d20 ⇒ 5 and borrowed battle axe: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (2) + 19 = 21 for slashing: 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (5, 3) + 10 = 18, fire: 1d6 ⇒ 6, and vitality damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5
◆ Strike Blue Concealed: 1d20 ⇒ 7 and borrowed battle axe (sweep): 1d20 + 19 - 5 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 19 - 5 + 1 = 23 for slashing: 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (8, 3) + 10 = 21, fire: 1d6 ⇒ 5, and vitality damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6
Liam's fire resistance increases to 6 in Overdrive, so he only takes 2 from the ambient heat.
I have a spare Hero Point, I'll reroll that 2: Hero Point vs Pink: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (12) + 19 = 31

Bone Slivers; DC 25 Basic Reflex Save: 4d8 ⇒ (1, 6, 1, 8) = 16

Liam manages to get his armor and other items working in concert. He then swings at Pink and Blue. He misses the latter but slices Pink's head clean off. As Pink collapses, however, slivers of bone shoot out from its carcass at everything around it!
