"Whoa that's a lot of gold!" Lem gawks at the huge pile of gold in the chest. "This must be this guy's treasure room!"


Bridgette comments "I don't think so, this room likely has the money from the little Lambs collections for the past week or two.
That and some cash on hand to pay a few of the more corrupt guards to report nothing."

Daranil's Spellcraft:
You managed to decipher 3 scrolls.

* Scroll 2 is acid splash.
* Scroll 3 is fireball.
* Scroll 4 is blink.

Eyeing the gold; “That could help a lot of people…” he things of everyone at the temple who has been struggling with the poison Lamm peddles… like himself.

As Daranil examines the scrolls; “I am new to the study of magical items. Not sure what life will bring after dealing with Lamm, but I would love to learn under you how you read the runes and properties to tell what are specifically on here. I can only use what Torag has given me to detect if something is magical. And that only gives me the kinds of magic.” Thoric cast detect magic to get the magical properties of the scrolls. “Like the wand we found earlier is of invocation magic, but I have no clue what it does.”

Thoric's detect magic:
The scrolls glow with many colors, indicating that they are of different magical scrolls. They also have a certain light about them, indicating that they are arcane scrolls.

Karinna watches from her position near the door as the others loot the chest. When she sees that they are ready to continue, she helps lead the way forward by opening the door. "Lamm must be around here somewhere," she mutters quietly to the group.

Azig watches to be sure nothing sneaks up on them. "That chest might have value too, but don't anybody overload. Split it up so we're all still battle ready. We still gotta find and finish Lamm."

Who is carrying what? Let's move to the next room.

Lem looks around at everyone, stunned at their nonchalance. "That's more gold than I've ever seen in one place before. Man you guys must be rich."

Ready to move on.


Male Human Psion 10/Atlanteologist 10

The door opens. And you see Gaderin Lamm open it. "Oh . . ." he says, and then runs into the other room.

"That's him! Get him!!!"

Azig tries to scurry after Lamm but likely has to wait for others to get through the door before him.

He isn't fast, movement speed 20', and doesn't want to get trampled....


Bridgette's eyes become like that of a predator that found it's prey and she starts barreling her 6'7" body towards Lamm with a fury, that a few near her might understand a fragment of.

Make a quick dexterity check, DC 15. This is to check that you don't trip over Azig.

Yes. But remember, you post your actions when you can. If we go by initiative turns, the game will slow down needlessly. I take my turn last.

SURPRISE ROUND!

Lem, apparently the only one who hadn't seen Lamm before, jumped when everybody started shouting. As soon as he understands what's going on he yells "Get him!"

He sees a big pool of water where the fish that are caught goes. There is stairs down and a doorway leading out. It's room A8. Lamm has his pet alligator here as well.

To be sure, Lem, you don't have to roll initiative -- since we aren't using initiative.

Seeing Lamm having his pet with him, Thoric gives a shout. "Watch out! Those things can pull you down and drown you!" He pulls free the tanglefoot bag he picked up earlier (surprise round action); "Knew this would be handy." he says as if only to himself.


Bridgette having fallen on Azig, apologizes to Azig as she gets back up.

Karinna charges after Lamm, not giving him enough time to get ahead of them that he can do things like open and close doors.

No, just a regular rapier attack if she can.

Okay. Let me check on the rules for charges, I think you get a bonus.

EDIT: doesn't say, but you don't suffer an AoO for charging. I'll grant you a +2 bonus this time.

Lamm releases his pet alligator!

"sick them!" he says.

Seeing Karinna charge at Lamm, Thoric moves to a better position and throws his Tanglefoot Bag at his alligator

Range Touch Attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Missing Lamm's pet, his eyes go wide and gets ready to move closer. A place where he is more comfortable.

Don't forget the +1 to attack (morale) from the Bless spell.

Are we in A8? Who is near the alligator?

Lem raises his shield and mutters a prayer to whatever god was listening. The little man pats Bridgette on the small of her back- maybe the short guy's equivalent of patting the tall woman on the shoulder. "Go get him!"

Cast Guidance on Bridgette for an additional +1 to attack (competence, so it stacks).

Can Azig see the alligator? And can he get to 15' from it?:

Seeing the dangerous reptile Azig moves forward taking one of his flasks to his lips, then he spits at it.
Casting Adhesive Spittle on it. It acts similar to a tanglefoot bag but does not require an attack roll. DC15 reflex save means it isn't held in place but is still affected by it, reducing the attack by 2, dex by 4, and movement speed by half.

Thoric and Bridgette. Yes, you are in A8.

That would take a move action to get within 15 feet of the alligator. :)

The elf tilts his head back and lets out a laugh. "Dear Lamm, are you serious? There's no drama in putting down a beast. Are you calling for an intermission?"

Daranil tucks the scroll away and takes a shot at the beast.

Oh, I didn't realize Karinna gets another action this round, sorry.

Karinna presses her advantage where she pinned her quarry and stabs at Lamm again with her rapier. She steps sideways to try and flank him with Bridgette.

Attack Lamm (rapier), flanking, Piranha Strike: 1d20 + 5 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 2 - 1 = 12
Damage (piercing), Piranha Strike: 1d6 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) - 1 + 2 = 5

Gaedrin Lamm tries to escape! While he's wounded, he makes his way to the doorway to the dock. Once he is on aboard ship, he can escape by boat!

The alligator attacks Thoric!
Alligator bite attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12; Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6. If the Alligator succeeds, he may grab Thoric!

END ROUND 1

Karinna note: It went into regular combat after you made your surprise round.

Teeth clattering off Thoric’s shield, he lets out a curse in dwarven. Getting a firm grip on his axe, he brings it down on the beast; “I’ve got a little bite too!”

Dwarven Waraxe Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
Dwarven Waraxe DMG: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

As his axe bites into the creature, a satisfied smile splits his face.

Remaining safely behind big Bridgette, Lem darts forward to impart another blessing on the ferocious fighter. "You're doing great! Kick his a$$!"

Another Guidance on Bridgette.


depending on HOW Lamm tries to leave the fight, we may or may not get an Attack of Opportunity.
If Lamm does a withdraw action, there is No Attack of Opportunity unless he crosses another's attack range.

Bridgette goes at Lamm with no mercy
"Trying to Leave, you B4ST4RD. Not before you pay up what you Owe all of us in blood."
