Reflex: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (10) + 12 = 22

Success, 9 damage

Jaxon flanks Blue Stalker but his kick is not quick to hit the target. Swayaah manages to evade half of the splinters thrown at her.

Red Stalker calls upon nature's power and brings plant roots to entangle some Pathfinders. Entangle. All surfaces in the area are difficult terrain It then strides without difficulty among plants and trees, teasing Lokaloka to join it in the cover of the trees.

"Great, they don't mind walking through trees and grass." Swayaah stares at the Blue thing in front of her.

Devise A Stratagem: 1d20 ⇒ 17

The aim is good, but to sweeten the deal she tries to pin it down first.

kicks the dice bot

Ami transforms after finding out that the roots of the plants are impeding their movement before moving out of the area.

Jaxon is afflicted by the poison with 1d6 ⇒ 1 poison damage.

Slipp, the second save is vs Splinters. though your roleplay description is correct. Slipp is caught by the plant roots too and has no time to evade the splinters. Slipp then burns those enemy that they can see. White is hit, 33 fire + weakness 5 = 38; Miss to hit Red; Blue is hit, 30 fire They can see that fire is very effective against White Twig.

Swayaah fails to pin down Blue Stalker but not crit fail. Nonetheless, her claws find home across the stalker's face.

Roots and splinters are not Lokaloka's friend at this encounter. She flies force missiles against Black.

Erevan draws weapon.

Erevan knows that the White and Black twigs are twigjacks that has fire and axe weakness. The Red and Blue stalkers are grimstalkers, violently murderous fey have one purpose: to stealthily hunt down and slay humanoids brazen enough to dare set foot in the wilderness. He knows they are weak to cold iron.

White Twig shoots a single splinter at Ami one at a time.

Slipp effectively scares the stalker, now that it is already weakened. Frightened 2 But their attack miss to hit. Erevan launches a fire bomb that goes to high his target.

Swayaah keeps evading the ground by jumping and adds to hurt the stalker more. Lokaloka launches a branch that solidly knocks the stalker. Jaxon makes sure it is no more into this realm with his punches.

ENCOUNTER OVER! WELL DONE!

Viltydus considers their task successful when they defeat their attackers. Even their map is valuable to the Port Valen locals.

As the Pathfinders conclude their fourth and final task, Viltydus applauds their work and celebrates the prospect of a long and beneficial relationship with the Pathfinder Society. They receive a hot meal and a warm bed in the Port Valen lodge.

"You can stay in Port Valen as long as you like." Viltydus offers them before they leave them be.

FIN

Ami decides to stay for a bit to see the local sights, before returning to Absalom

"Problem with being a predator, you don't know when you're the prey." Swayaah checks her claws as the stalker is finished off. Fae is on hand to give a handkercheif to wipe the gore off.

"Ugh. Plants. I've had bad memories dealing with 'em." She frowns. "So carving one up is so cathartic." She sports a feral grin before checking herself.

"Port Valen's gotta have a good bar or two. Plenty of time to learn more about the locals. We're all the same, deep down inside." Fae stays a few paces behind, following her every step.

Thanks for the game, everyone.

Lokaloka catches a ride back to Absalom on a nearby barge. She keeps the crew entertained the whole way back...

Slipp, having enjoyed their stay in the small town, takes out a flute to play a cute little melody they have been working on. As they note Lokaloka heading toward a ship they offer a final wave.

Somehow by the time the goblin is aboard, the gnome is already well ensconced in a cabin. "A tad cool up in these latitudes to stay for too long."

Thanks for the game everyone
