GM Frost's B18 From Family Lost (2) (Inactive)

Game Master Frozen Frost

Using Quick tempered the dwarf raged right on the beginning of the fight.

So he draws his weapon to be ready to strike Flaming directly.

+1 Long hammer: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17

Damage, Piercing, Electricity: 1d8 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 4 = 10

Then again.

+1 Long hammer: 1d20 + 10 - 5 ⇒ (4) + 10 - 5 = 9

Damage, Piercing, Electricity: 1d8 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 + 4 = 16

Targeting the two disembodies heads, the wizened crow slashes with an imperiously long sword, inches above the orc's head - then opens his wing and blasts spiritual energy at it (or the second head) - an angry volcano erupting divine magma which flows forth with a deep crimson explosion!

Potent Nodachi (S, 2h; brace, deadly d12, reach) vs Head: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 161d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 51d12 ⇒ 6

◆) Strike
◆◆) Vitality Lash

Vitality Lash (Basic Fortitude DC 18) vs Head: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 4) = 7

Wizel rages and draws long hammer to bonk Flaming in the head, because that is the only part of the body it has anyway. Long hammer is fast enough to not be hit in both instances.

Old Crow slices Parted and sloughs off some dead skin. The tengu then blasts it with vitality energy.
DC 18 basic Fortitude save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 vs VL Fail, 11 vitality damage

It melts and vanishes into the air. Parted out

Scorching flies away from the source of fear and as it flies out, Zaighar bludgeons it as it is within his reach! 8 B damage

Scorching spits fire at Zaighar.
DC 5 Flat check: 1d20 ⇒ 15 vs Dazzled
Spitfire Attack, Frightened 1: 1d20 + 10 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 10 - 1 = 21 vs Zaighar AC 21

Burning, on the other hand, flies toward Wizel and gives a fiery forehead attack!
DC 5 Flat check: 1d20 ⇒ 6 vs Dazzled
Forehead Attack, Frightened 1: 1d20 + 10 - 1 ⇒ (15) + 10 - 1 = 24 vs Wizel AC 20

Penny seems super pleased with himself... until he sees the skulls. The goblin then smiles with a manic and feral glee!

"Goblins bite and goblins bash
all your burning skulls we smash!
Crush your bones up into paste,
We have got no time to waste,
When you see our mighty host
We be Goblins, YOU BE TOAST!"

The Goblin them mouths silent words towards two of the skulls.

◆ Courageous Anthem
◆◆ Haunting Hymn

Hits burning and scorching
Damage 1d8 ⇒ 5 Sonic
Basic save DC 19 Fort.

EVERYONE - +1 status bonus to attack rolls, damage rolls, and saves against fear effects.

"Ow" Bramblespine responds annoyedly as he gets chewed on. Dazzled rounds tick down.

Bramblespine looks at Uncoupled(purple) with a certain level of distain.

Evil eye Will DC 19 for Uncoupled(purple). Ongoing Misery will then extend Flaming (Tiny Yellow)'s dazzled condition by an extra round.

Bramblespine then fires metallic thorns at Uncoupled (Tiny Purple).
spell attack vs Uncoupled: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
piercing damage: 4d4 ⇒ (3, 2, 1, 2) = 8
Double damage and 2 persistent bleed on a crit

Forgot to reduce Dazzled conditions of skulls, thanks for the reminder.

DC 19 Will save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 vs Evil Eyes (Crit Fail, Uncoupled becomes Sickened 2)
Bramblespine's stare of disdain against Uncoupled makes the skull have avery uneasy feeling to the core. And the presence of the ghoran's familiar makes Flaming's condition worse. Dazzled condition of Flaming extends by 1 rd

Whatever Uncoupled is feeling right now makes it unfocused that it gets hit with metallic thorns, both straight to the eyes. Uncoupled out.

Flaming launches more spitfires to those within its range! 1 Bramblespine, 2 Wizel, 3 Old Crow, 4 Zaighar: 3d4 ⇒ (3, 4, 3) = 10

DC 5 Flat check: 1d20 ⇒ 19 vs Dazzled condition

AFTER YOUR TURN
❗ Old Crow at Mountain's Top: DC 15 flat check vs 1d4 persistent fire ❗

Flaming is still at 2 rounds on dazzled, after my increase from Misery.

Bone Bearer darts between Burning and Scorching.

Lioness focuses to keep the Shroud of Night across Burning's eyes. Sustain.

Which sends a ripple of fear out of Bone Bearer. Burning and Scorching are Frightened 1 for 1 round.

"You're not looking so good, Zaighar," Lioness says before sending out some Soothing energy toward him.

◆ Raise a Shield

AC 23

Flaming is still at 2 rounds on dazzled, after my increase from Misery.

Argh. Why do I keep messing these rounds of Dazzled? XD

Lioness keeps everyone Concealed from Burning's eyes. Burning and Scorching continues to be Frightened while they are next to the familiar. Lioness then provides healing to Zaighar.

Wizel fights Flaming, bonking it with his long hammer! 13 P & E damage but misses to hit the second time.

Old Crow also thrusts weapon to Flaming. 8 S damage
Flaming: DC 18 Fortitude save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16 vs VL (Fail, 12 Vitality + 3 weakness)

He also effectively blasts vitality to it that it reduces to ashes after it explodes in a blast of fire and bones, but fortunately no one is adjacent to it.. Flaming out

Meanwhile, Zaighar redirects his iron ball to Scorching that shatters it into a blast of in a blast of fire and bone that deals 1d6 ⇒ 1 piercing damage plus 1d6 ⇒ 5 fire damage to each adjacent creature (Bone Bearer and Wizel) (DC 18 basic Reflex save).

Yay! Good game team! Thanks GM, I reckon that would have made for a cool bigger scenario, certainly had some good ideas to work with
