"Let's get you healed up.." Kargoth says.

Noting that his punches are somewhat ineffective against Red Swarm, Gilgamesh chooses to flank Blue Scamp and attempts to bring it down.

Stork, not getting distracted by the scamps with the help of Kargoth's spell, gets her guisarme out, and tries to rip apart the swarm. Her guisarme magically sprouts several wolf and bear claws on its blade.

Stork Reflex: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

Stork manages to avoid the worst of the damage and is healed by Kargoth, who also provides some divine assistance. Stork pulls out his weapon and slashes at the swarm, inflicting some heavy damage.

Gilgamesh punches Blue and hits it right in the face. The scamp immediately stops what it's doing. "Stop! Stop! I'm sorry I caused trouble!" it screams, before fleeing.

28 is a crit so its AC is 20 max

Red slashes at Ramona before breathing a cone of pollen right in her face.

Kargoth - Stork is immune to guidance for an hour. Also who are you casting Forbidding Ward against? Stork gets +1 AC/Saves against a specific opponent.

Gilgamesh moves to flank Red. He punches Red twice and hits both times, the second time critically. "Enough! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I was only trying to help!" It screeches before flying away.

I'll process Stork's actions in a bit. Have to go grab lunch before my guests arrive! Sorry about the cliffhanger!

(Sorry will cast Forbidding Ward on Red Swarm and stride for the other move.)

Kargoth sends some help at Stork and moves up. Stork unleashes a sonic boom from her jaws and slashes at the swarm twice. Unfortunately only the sonic boom hits the swarm.

btw, Thunderous Strike is Fortitude. :)

Ramona continues performing and sends needles at the swarm. The swarm avoids the darts. Stork charges forward and clobbers the swarm with his polearm, scattering them.

"Okay! OKAY!! We're sorry! We'll cooperate with the iruxi!!"

COMBAT OVER

We can generally hand wave healing since it's really just damage.

Lolly breathes a sigh of relief. "That was well done, Pathfinders. Here, I think you can use this as well."

She hands you a scroll of Resist Energy

Chief Thakkik also sighs with relief. "I'll clean up here. Maybe Kazuuk can take you to see the pyramid and the Elemental Fan."

You head out of the village and head for the pyramid and come upon another potential problem.

You see scamps laying traps. When you arrive, you find one or more metal scamps laying down caltrops, while the iruxi guards attempt to convince them the traps are not needed. The conversation is getting heated and it could come to blows at any moment.

Kazuuk addresses all present. "Everyone, please calm down! Let us not resort to violence here. Guards, return to your posts." He then addresses the scamps: "Pick this stuff up now, it's dangerous!"

The scamps however, protest. "We just want to make it safe!" they plead.

Kazuuk rolls his eyes and turns to you, saying, "Perhaps you can convince to help in a safer and more constructive way?"

You should begin by trying to convince the scamps that there are better ways they can help the iruxis protect the fan:
DC 20 Diplomacy/Crafting to bring up better, less dangerous ways to help.
DC 18 Warfare Lore to point out tactical flaws in the defense plan
You each have 2 checks and need 6 successes.
Other skills welcome if you can make it fit.
As always, a Crit Success will count as 2 successes.
There is no additional penalty for a Crit Failure

"What if all intruders are flying? Your caltrops will be useless." Gilgamesh points out.
DC 18 Warfare Lore: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

"Okay, let's say not all of them are flying. Look at those caltrops, exposed. You must hide them like thise." Gilgamesh teaches them how to make traps hidden to those unaware of it.
DC ? Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23

DC 20 for non-lore skills. DC 18 for Lore skills

Gilgamesh convinces the scamps that there are flaws in their thinking and teaches them how to hide the caltrops. 2 successes

"Well, it's kind of going to hurt people who visit..." Kargoth says.

"Maybe you can put stuff that just warns you of them approaching, like nut shells.."

Diplo: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Survival: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

Warfare Lore: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Savan tries to teach the scamps when caltrops are actually be used away from where there are guard patrols.

6 successes (well, 3 to go) and you avoid another fight

"That is merely the illusion of security," Isurus says, gesturing at the caltrops. He describes the methods taught in the society for bypassing traps both simple and complex and how all it takes is one a little more clever to spoil all one's efforts. Furthermore, flight is not beyond many elemental creatures so it really only foils the iruxi guards.

Isurus's Pathfinder (T): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
Isurus's Pathfinder (T): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

Stork thinks that Gilgamesh raises a valid point. Caltrops are no use against a dragon! She stops and thinks of better ways to try to defend the contraption.

Crafting: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 Ugh, Hero Point
Crafting: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20

She also suggests that the scamps and the Iruxi sit down and try to hammer out a written agreement, and she offers to write the agreement for them.

Welp, I probably negate my own success

Welp, I probably negate my own success

Fortunately, your Successful Crafting is safe with below.

There is no additional penalty for a Crit Failure

Isurus and Stork attempt to convince the scamps that there are better ways of 'defending' the pyramid with mixed success. Savan attempts to teach them how to use their caltrops but the theory proves to be too complex. Kargoth calms the scamps down but his nut shell idea doesn't interest the scamps.

Savan - Failure
Stork - Success, Failure
Isurus - Success, Failute

Checks Needed:
Ramona - 2
Savan - 1

Success Needed: 1

Anyone want to HP a failure or wait for one of the others?

Will wait.

Warfare Lore: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17 *facepalm*

Savan continues trying to lecture them on tactics, only growing more frustrated. He just tries speaking louder, to little avail.

"I was really hoping to avoid this."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15

Getting out Banjo, Ramona will attempt to show, by means of a puppet show, how to improve the situation.

Performance: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26

Savan continues teaching the scamps but the scamps have a very very VERY short attention span and have even less patience for Savan's tactics. Fortunately, Ramona manages to convince them by way of a puppet show.

"OHHHH! So we're not supposed to put them so close! The whiskered one kept using fancy words!"

They pick up their caltrops and move to a safer distance, chattering all the way...

As the Iruxi and Kazuuk breathe a sigh of relief, you settle down and listen to Kazuuk describe the elemental fan and what it is used for. Suddenly you look up and see an earth scamp on top of the pyramid, posturing as if to guard the fan. The scamp bellows out a challenge.

The earth scamp bellows, "I am Smolrok, king of the pyramid and protector of the fan!" The scamp points a wing at the gathered Pathfinders. "Come prove to me you are worthy allies who can assist the iruxi in protecting their fan."

Kazuuk performs what appears to be the iruxi version of a facepalm. "NOT AGAIN!" he groans.

You have enough time to make 2 checks to impress Smolrok. A critical success counts as two successes, while a critical failure removes one success.
Skills:
DC 18 Athletics/Acrobatics/Intimidation/Stealth
Successes Needed: 6+

Please describe what you're doing to prove that you deserve to be King of the Hill

Without saying a word, Gilgamesh effortless climbs the pyramid and carefully pushe the earth scamp to the side. He then acts as if to steal the fan before going down the pyramid as if nothing happens.
Athletics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27

Thievery: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11
Hero Point! Thievery: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14

Gilgamesh easily climbs the pyramid and shoves the scamp aside. Trying to steal the fan, however, doesn't go as smoothly... (Crit Success, Failure)

Stealth: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22

Savan sneaks up the other side while Gilgamesh is distracting them with his approach. Then the catfolk nimbly flips himself up and over the fan to show he can even ward it from above.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17

Ramona, while holding Banjo aloft, summersaults past the fan.

"Well, there can be many kings. And you're kind of insubstantial..."

Intimidation: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Intimidation: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17

Savan startles Smolrok by sneaking up the pyramid and somersaulting over the fan. Success x2

Ramona runs up the pyramid and does the same but is not as stealthy. Smolrock is impressed, but not as impressed as he is with Savan Success, Failure

Kargoth heckles Smolrok, causing the scamp to redden slightly. Success, Failure

"Ok. You are King of the Hill. You have proven yourself!" the crestfallen scamp acquiesces and goes back down the Pyramid.

In the end, the scamps are convinced that the Iruxi and Pathfinders have something to teach them. They form an alliance with the Iruxi enclave.
