EFFECTS & CONDITIONS REFERENCE

Jinlong freaks out as his vision fades to red. "Mek mek mek!!" he screams, reverting to his native Draconic. After a short period, he calms down and realizes that he's not totally helpless... Concentrating, he heals his wounds before whispering a prayer to Abadar to protect his friends.

At once the Pathfinders around him feel safer, somewhat.

◇ Freak out
◆ Lay on Hands (18 hp)
◆◆ Benediction (+1 AC, 15' emanation)

btw, Blazing Armory available if anyone can use it with a ranged weapon.

Glenda moves and tries to figure out where the enemy is. "Gah... this is like when the chili jar exploded..."

Flat check hero point: 1d20 ⇒ 4

The goblin strikes himself because he does feel this fight would be too easy otherwise.

Fist, vs 23+1-2 AC: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3

Seeing that, Wolf does the same.

Jaws, vs 22+1+1-1 AC: 1d10 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14

Damage: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (6, 6) + 3 = 15

Fortunately there are the same dice as for the saves

At his turn the goblin casts a spell towards the phantom.

Vitality lash: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 5, 3) = 17

Fort DC 21

Then he casts Protect companion and Wolf moves backwards.

Glenda, you gonna freak out as well? :)

Glenda freaks out as well. "We're DOOOMED!" she says.

Jinlong quickly heals himself and provides protection for anyone close to him.

Glenda moves and randomly hits with her elemental blast. Su and Wolf harms themselves but misses to do any damage.

Rolling flat check to hit because Su Fix is Blinded...
Flat check: 1d20 ⇒ 19

Taking consideration as to where he has last seen the target before he gets blinded, Su hits!
DC 21 Fortitude save: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15 (Fail, 17 vitality damage - 4 resistance)

The phantom flies past the minions, leveling with them, and throws dagger at Su Fix.

EFFECTS & CONDITIONS REFERENCE

"Mek! Someone tell me where he is and in what direction so I can try to get him!" Jinlong calls.

What's the flat check for blinded?

For those who are Blinded, I used DC 11 flat check because they know phantom's location before it acted for the current round, making the phantom Hidden. Now that it moved, it becomes Undetected for those that remain Blinded for the next round.

Zaos, Su, and Wolf are no longer Blinded for Round 3. I forgot to remove the condition.

"Mek! Mek! Direct me where I can throw a spell! I can't see!!" Jinlong yells, partly in despair.
