[ACO] Beginner Box 2 - Secrets of the Unlit Star (P1)

Game Master UncleFroggy

Unggoy triggers her staff but it only gives out a small pop and a wheeze. Irritated, she tries to smack Blue anyway but fails.

Taga-utos inspires his comrade to strike again. This time the strike is successful with the staff solidly enough that the butterfly is driven into the ground.

"Is there anything in here that doesn't want to kill us as soon as it sees us?" Wayin sighs as the attack begins.

A strum of the halfling's lute brings some inspiring energy into the air around the party. He looks closer at the surviving creature, trying to figure out what it is, more for his own curiosity than anything, then sketches out a magic shield in case it comes his way.

Sorry for the delay, I managed to miss noticing it was my turn when I checked in yesterday.

Prynn tightened her grip on her shield as Wayin's anthem filled the chamber once more. She raised a hand toward the injured blue creature. A flicker of orange flame gathered in her palm before streaking through the air.

◆◆ Ignition vs. Blue: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 1 = 11 Fire damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 3) = 5

As the fire left her hand, Prynn immediately brought her shield into a guarded stance, keeping herself between the creatures and her companions.

Prynn launches a fireball at Red but doesn't connect. She raises her shield.

Meanwhile Red tries wrastling with Tessa, trying to slash the dragon with its wings.

Wing vs Tessa AC 18: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19 for Slashing: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

I think I removed the wrong critter from the tracker

Red swoops across the room at full speed. When it gets to Prynn, it tries swiping at the elf's face in retaliation.

Wing vs Prynn AC 17, MAP: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 for Slashing: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

"These butterflies are quite mobile." Fae notes.

She pockets her implement, and then moves up to the butterfly, still holding onto the Unlit Star.

"Hopefully it is not very strong."

Athletics to Grapple: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21

"Huh, ferrous butterflies. What a weird combination. You can't make them bleed."

Wayin recognizes that the needles might not be the best here and decides to try something different. Following another strum of the lute, he draws on some of his magic to assault the remaining creature with void energy.

Void Warp Damage: 2d4 + 1 ⇒ (1, 1) + 1 = 3 void damage, DC 17 basic Fortitude

◆ Cast Courageous Anthem
◆◆ Cast Void Warp

Tessa screams as the sharp wings cut into her. "We might not be able to make them bleed, but they sure can do it to us!" Blood drips down her arms freely.

Nevertheless, the tiny dragon races after the butterfly, trying to fake it out again and leaps to tear at it with her claws.

Fae manages to jump up and grab Red. She holds on long enough for Tessa to run over and slash it in half with her claws.

COMBAT OVER

With nowhere to go but north, you wade into the water and duck under the temple wall. Emerging on the other side, you climb onto a rock and spot something interesting...

Knee-deep water and a constant dripping sound fills the cavern, as does a strange song. On an island in the middle of the cavern rests a woman, brushing her hair in a faded mirror. Looking closer, you notice her comb is made unmistakably of human bones. The woman has an eel’s long, thin teeth, an anglerfish’s translucent skin, and an octopus’s tentacles instead of legs. Broken chairs, jewelry boxes, vanities, and similar furniture are piled haphazardly about her, and atop the tallest stack sits a shining piece of crystal.

The woman looks up at you and greets you. "Well met. Who are you and what are you doing here?"

A faint smile crosses Taga-utos' face as the last flying creature falls.

"Excellent teamwork, Fae and Tessa. That's exactly how coordinated attacks should be executed. Keep fighting like that, and we'll overcome whatever else these ruins throw at us."

Later on...

Taga-utos offers the woman a respectful nod before answering.

"My companions and I found ourselves trapped in these temple ruins and we've been making our way through the chambers in search of a way out."

He then asks the woman. "What about you? Who are you? How did you end up here?"

The woman doesn't appear to hear Taga-Utos' questions. "Have you found anything meaningful in this place?" she asks.

First thing that doesn't try to kill us immediately in here and of course it looks like this... Wayin laments internally. The halfling finds something about this unsettling. Maybe it's the bone comb, maybe it's the translucent skin.

After taking a step forward, Wayin turns back and winks to his new companions, then faces this latest stranger. "Call me Karel," he says, offering a bow. The creature gives him enough of the heebie jeebies that he's not going to give it his real name if he doesn't have to. "Yeah, I found something meaningful in here. I've realized I don't have to go through life being just a solo act."

He suspects the creature is inquiring about a physical object that can be acquired, so he's being a clown in offering this answer, but it is also a sincere answer, other than his giving a false name.

Tessa leaps onto Taga-utos's back to carry her across the "knee-deep" water. "If you're going to order me around in a fight, you can at least carry me so I don't drown." She hops off on a small rock sticking out of the water. The tiny dragon clacks her nails on the surface, smiling at the sound.

She turns to the creature. "Hey, where did you get that comb?!" She leans closer. "Kinda fun, isn't it? Did you get all this stuff from the temple?"

"I am glad I was able to help." Fae drops the shredded butterfly.

Fae notes the unlit star as she witnesses the person combing her hair.

"Identifying..."

Fae will use Esoteric Lore +6 to identify

"Greetings! We are searching for shards of an old artifact. I believe you have one nearby. Would you be willing to trade for it?"

"Oh do you mean this little pretty thing?" she asks coyly, indicating the crystal at her side. "This, unfortunately is my only source of light. I would need a hefty price for this. What can you give me?"

"Yes! The crystal shard."

Fae turns to her teammates. "What can we trade? We did clear that room of foes. But before that we found a bowl that could produce water." She glances at the creature. "Not useful for you. What about the bottles of perfume?"

When Fae looks back to ask what the group can trade, Wayin turns the gears in his mind, then nods. Taking his lute, he gestures to the creature. "I'll trade you a song, if you want one."

The halfling strums as he sings a couple of lines, improvising lyrics on the spot.

"For those who dare to say they're brave,
A beauty waits for you here in this cave,
One look at her hair, you're in her net,
With a face that you'll not soon forget..."

He trails off, not willing to offer more unless she's interested.

Unggoy spends some time readjusting the gears of her weapon, hoping the mechanism will function properly the next time she needs it.

She then ducks beneath the wall alongside the others, emerging into a cavern.

Her eyes immediately settle on the unmistakably human bones fashioned into the comb the creature is casually running through its hair. She tightens her grip on her weapon, remaining on guard.

"Those are human bones." she states flatly with disgust.

Tessa scoffs. "Really, you need that thing just for light? Hmm. Where did you find it?"

The figure just sighs... "Oh here and there. Look, I'm interested in that crystal you have. What can you give me for it?"

"So you don't want the perfume? Or the music?"

Though trying to be friendly at first, Wayin is more on guard after the creature has brushed off different attempts at introductions and questions about who it is or what it wants. He's uneasy about the fact that it has also not taken up any of the trade offers.

"We are travelers who only seek to leave this place. Can you help us find the way out?" More wary internally, he's still trying to make a nice impression on this creature.

Diplomacy, Make an Impression: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

Tessa taps her nails on her chin for a moment. "Wait, you want our crystal? You already have one. What do you want two? Maybe you should give us yours."

"Oh I can most certainly help you find a way out. Unfortunately, it also means I will eat very well for the next few weeks. Your crystal will become a part of my collection as well!"

Like every other encounter in this level, it was only going to end one way... Just that this encounter involves some RP hemming and hawing before the monster decides to kill you :)

Instead, the bo staff sputters and crackles. A puff of smoke curls from its housing as the mechanism shorts out.

"Oh, come on! Again?!" she groans. Still determined, Unggoy closes the distance with the enemy.
◆ Stride

She then angles her staff to deflect any attacks.
◆ Parry (+1c to AC)

Oh, before I totally forget -- The water is difficult terrain.

Unggoy appears to not have worked out the bugs of her invention. She moves up and positions herself to deflect attacks.

"Hostile... detected..." Fae mumbles, dejected and disappointed.

Fae ◆fishes out her own crystal to use as an implement.

Then she tries to ◆Exploit Vulnerability.
Esoteric Lore: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26

"Enemy shield analyzed..."

She then ◆gently lowers the Unlit Star onto the ground. "My apologies, I need a free hand."

Tessa stares as Fae drops the item the crazy lady is wanting.

No worries, Tessa can grab it. She doesn't need to hold anything. Just giving you some grief. :)

"I have studied her carefully. There are weaknesses I can apply to defeat her sooner." Fae rambles at Tessa. "It will only be a moment."

Can someone bot Taga-Utos please? I have no idea how to play a commander...

Before I forget:
Small PCs - Difficult terrain becomes Greater Difficult Terrain
Tiny PCs - need a DC 15 Athletics check to move in water (i.e. swim)

I'll take a crack at it...

Taga-Utos holds his banner high as he wades into the water, advancing far enough that he finds some of the solid ground between the party and the enemy. "Advance with me!" he calls out, raising his shield against attack.

Gather To Me! tactic: Signal all squadmates; each can immediately Stride as a reaction, though each must end their movement inside your banner’s aura, or as close to your banner’s aura as their movement Speed allows. Squadmates can use Gather to Me! while Burrowing, Climbing, Flying, or Swimming instead of Striding if they have the corresponding movement type.

Wayin follows after Taga-Utos, though he gets slowed down as he wades into the water. "Sir, yes, sir!" the halfling says. He thinks he heard that from a military man somewhere.

Taga-Utos's turn:
◆ Stride
◆ Gather to Me!
◆ Raise Shield
↺ All party members may react to Stride closer to the enemy (if they want).
I had the bird follow him, I don't really know how that one works. I haven't moved any of the PCs, not sure who wants to get closer and who doesn't.

Unggoy moves into the water as she gets close to the enemy.
↺ Stride with Gather to Me!

"Don't tell me what to do!" Tessa huffs and stamps her feet.

Seriously, normally Tessa would be a great target for the Tactics. She just wants to retrieve the Unlit Star first.

Shulzara drops into the water as party members follow Taga-Utos' commands and move in. While you slow down while negotiating the knee-deep water, Shulzara appears to be unaffected (of course she doesn't! :) )

She focuses on Unggoy and tries to hit her with a powerful jet of water.

Hydraulic Push vs Unggoy AC 19: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 for Bludgeoning: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 4) = 14 plus knocked back 5'

The blow catches Unggoy in the chest and blasts her backwards, her back slamming against a nearby rock.

Prynn saw Unggoy crumple against the rock, the force of the watery blast leaving them struggling to stay upright. Without hesitation, she splashed through the knee-deep water, heedless of the resistance as she hurried to her companion's side.

Kneeling beside the injured companion, Prynn placed a reassuring hand upon her shoulder. Warm, golden light flowed from her palm, knitting bruises and steadying battered limbs. Rising to her feet, Prynn immediately brought her shield before her, setting herself between Unggoy and the strange creature lurking.

What's your Lay on Hands value?

Wayin tries something different this time when the fight breaks out. He's a little offended that this creature completely ignored his offer of a song made up about it, so he's going to give it one, like it or not.

"Breath so foul, you'll have to run,
A face as warped as anyone..."

He delivers these lines along with a strum of his lute, which he tries to keep hanging in the air.

GM, did Fae get any information from her DC 26 Exploit Vulnerability check?

Fae follows Taga-utos into the water as a Reaction.

"One moment while I parse the analysis..."

Waiting for the Exploit Vulnerability results before I take my turn.

"Ouch!" she winces in pain after she is sent flying away into a hard solid rock. Thankfully, Prynn is quick to provide her healing.

"Thanks! This enemy's powerful."

"Species: Sea Hag. Weaknesses: Cold Iron weapons." Some of Fae's crystal breaks off as she ◆draws her flail. The crystal coats her weapon in a thin sheet.

"I do not have cold iron supplements- my sister asked me to be creative. I can simulate it, though." Fae continues to ◆Stride closer, onto the island.

"You will cease this activity, or I will drown YOU in cold iron fillings!" Her crystal reforms into a crown, giving her Regalia a bit more authority as she ◆Demoralizes the Sea Hag.

"That's it, Fae. I'll play keep away and you beat her!" Tessa grabs the Unlit Star and waves it as high in the air as she can reach. "Hey, you ugly witch! You want this, come get it!"

◆ Grab Unlit Star

Prynn pressed forward through the knee-deep water, each step slow but unwavering despite the resistanc as Wayin's anthem echoed through the cavern.

Stopping within range, Prynn extended her free hand toward the hag. A spark flickered between her fingers before blossoming into a lance of divine fire that streaked across the cavern.

"Not today. There's no way I'll let you make a meal out of us!"

Taga-utos declares as he stands his ground against Shulzara. He quickly assesses the battlefield before issuing a series of precise commands.

"Matang Lawin, flank Shulzara!"

The eagle takes to the air, circling behind the sea creature before swooping down to strike with its talons.
