Myth-Speaker Prey for Death

You know which square it's in since it attacked you; it becomes hidden when it uses an offensive ability. (Part of this creature's particular invisibility ability.) No need to Seek.

Everyone remember the flat check vs. hidden if you try to do something to Blue.

Do I need a flat check when I'm not aiming anything?


Myth-Speaker Prey for Death

Ro rips and tears at the remaining chimera, while Sylvia finishes it off with a blast of arctic magic. With yellow vanquished, Othello advances on the invisible foe (Feel free to adjust your position, if you need to, and if you want to do something other than Smite, feel free.)

Despite its invisibility, Nina blasts the phade with divine power. Jakoby quickly tries to land hits with his arrows, and there's a puff of air as the elemental dissapates.

Arrow vs Hidden DC 11: 1d20 ⇒ 13
Arrow vs Hidden DC 11: 1d20 ⇒ 12

Anything that targets the phade needs a flat check, but you can save the spell--crit from Jakoby finished it off.

Out of combat.

Calm falls across the desert, though you are left with the impression that many dangers still lurk in the area.

As much time as you'd like to rest here. I'll move us on this evening.


Myth-Speaker Prey for Death

You make your way farther into the dangerous outskirts of the Mana Wastes.

Please make Survival checks to try to gain ground on your quarry. Standard success rules. (Crit = 2 successes, Crit failure= -1)

While navigating the dangerous borderlands between Nex and the Mana Wastes, you stumble upon a long-abandoned smuggler’s cache with crates of semi-precious jewels and alchemical components. It’s clear at a glance that it has been many years since this cache was left behind. You can be fairly secure in an assumption that no owner will be returning for these goods. While many of the alchemical components have long since desiccated or rotted away, others are safely stored in sealed vials or are simply nonperishable, meaning there is still some notable value to be gained from their resale.

This cache of ancient coins, gems, and vials is worth 250 gp to the right collector.

Myth-Speaker Prey for Death

You are able to find enough favorable terrain to make up time on the oozeshard, reaching it before it enters the Mana Wastes proper.

You find yourself in a desolate swath created by the all-consuming passage of the oozeshard. It is littered with dust and detritus and very little else, as anything powerful or foolish enough to challenge the oozeshard— rather than fleeing from it—has already been consumed.

It's obvious that the oozeshard is not moving with great purpose or speed, so you have time to prepare as you wish. The creature is surrounded by some nodes of ooze that seem to react to it, swaying in time with its undulations.

I updated the map. You have 2 hours to prepare for the fight, so feel free to do whatever you want, including pre-buffs. The nodes of ooze are hazards. If you have preparations, please post them, if not please post taht you are ready!

Jakoby examines the tracks, scoops a piece of ooze up with a finger. Notorious for having strange interactions with different weapons (for herself) and energies / magicks (for her magic-using allies), oozes are... She wonders what, if any, unexpected interactions they may shortly encounter.

Critical Success!

The expert tracker realizes that the ooze is likely immune to acid, bludgeoning , critical hits, electricity, precision, and unconsciousness. Though, he gets the feeling that this ooze--like nothing he's ever seen before--can radically change its form and abilities.

"Now, we wait" after explaining what she is able to find out by examining it's tracks.

Everyone +1 circumstance bonus (stacks w/ Anthem) to first attack roll (including spell attack) vs ooze!

Sitting cross-legged, Jakoby packs her pipe with a special nugget she had been saving for a special occasion. Cherrying it up with a heavy puff, she lies back in a stupor for a good long time, her mind racing with ideas and visions of the battle to come. And when she awakens, arises to make a few preparations.

"You boy" she speaks to her bird "Be prepared to charge in - but not before I thicken your feathers"

Jakoby will pre-buff Ro with Magic Hide (1 minute duration, if permitted)

Stowing her bow, she unsheathes Spiritbreaker - a katana with an Astral rune - and swings it in the air a few times, practicing her cutting strikes.

Looking around at her team, she nods at each and moves to the front of the pack - astride with her hunting companion - (but leaving a spot for the strident paladin should he so choose) - and prepares to charge in!

AC 29 vs her Oozeshard prey!

When Jakoby slices into the ooze, it takes the damage then rears up, taking a gooey armored shape that might remind you of the dead god Gorum!

With its oozy armor, Ro's strike fails to connect. Sylvia slams magical energy into the armored ooze.

Fortitude (Yellow): 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (13) + 14 = 27

Jiki realizes that when the ooze is in this battle form, its AC is much higher, but it loses its immunity to bludgeoning and precision damage.

The oozeshard completely resists Nina's spell, though the yellow bloblet is somewhat damaged by it.

The red ooze zaps Ro, moves to the (1d4 ⇒ 4) west and zaps at Jakoby.

Sylvia fires a ray of frost that accurately hits the oozeshard, splashing frost all over it. Virava slices into the blue node (I think I have been calling the rightmost blob blue.)

Jakoby continues to tear at the ooze, though Ro's attacks barely miss.

Jiki, the little oozes are hazards, not creatures, so shadow blast won't affect them. Would you like to use a different spell? I'll wait on the oozeshard's save while you decide.

Othello flies above the fray, swooping in to slash at the oozeshard. Looks like you didn't count Courageous Anthem? Let me know if I'm missing anything. With CA, the second attack hits.

The red bloblet zaps at Jakoby, moves 1d4 ⇒ 4 west and zaps Othello.
