Khavakra's page

Lixy turns to you all. "This has nothing to do with Mister Feldin. I am here for comfort and to seek protection. If Larur is still missing, he is most likely dead. If one of the upper staff of the Gold Goblin is dead, then who is to say any one of us is next?"

Khavakra looks around in surprise and shakes her head.

"I can't say the notion of people who look forward to becoming undead makes any sense to me, but I don't care what your religion is if you leave outsiders alone."

"But if these people are priests of death, would they be able to make some incantation to commune with the spirits? Perhaps they could ask if Larur is among their number?"

Guys: I've been having internet connectivity issues the last few days. My connection has been going out for long periods. I'm hoping that the problem is over but I can't say for sure.

I'm going to try and get caught up but since my window for posting may be limited I will handle threads that require short posts first.

Perception Take 10 (if allowed): 10 + 7 = 17
Perception (if Take 10 is not allowed): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

Khavakra grows to an impressive size, towering over Lixy.

Activating my enlarge person SLA to look more imposing.

"Does this have something to do with Larur? Lixy, you better tell us what is going on."

Intimidate: 1d20 - 3 + 4 ⇒ (15) - 3 + 4 = 16 ... this roll can be an aid if Chalkou also wants to use intimidate.

Nah, you could catch her if you want.

Khavakra watches Lixy leave the Gold Goblin and frowns.

She runs after her. "Hey, Lixy! Where are you going? Isn't this your shift?"

Chalkou hands the cloak back. "Well, aside from the refuse, it definitely smells like the Goblin. Mostly the basement. Did Larur spend much time in the basement?"

Khavakra's ears perk up when the basement is mentioned.

"The basement? I don't know, but... if there was a hidden entrance to the underground in our basement that would explain a lot. Larur may have discovered it and the Darklanders killed him for it."

"I think we should return to the Gold Goblin right away and check it out."

"Something is afoot here that just isn't right," Khavakra says, holding up the white hair. "We found Darklands poison earlier, and bolts made from Darklands wood. Now this hair... due to the lack of sunlight many creatures of the Darklands have white hair."

"Perhaps we ought to look at places where denizens of the Darklands might gain access to this city. Sewers, tunnels, entrances to the underground. Sadly I haven't been here long and I'm not sure where such things might be found."

Khavakra returns to the area where they found the bloody evidence behind Smeed's house. She begins to examine the area thoroughly.

"I am not ready to accuse Saul of anything. Perhaps there are more clues here if we look carefully."

Perception Take 20: 20 + 7 = 27

Khavakra frowns, and looks at the others.

"Who is this 'Dafuq?'" she whispers. "And did Smeed mistake Nessa for this Dafuq? Or is that someone within the house that he is calling on?"

:P

If any of you guys are in Canada, Happy Thanksgiving!

Those of you in the US, Happy Columbus Day (or Happy "Guy Who Was Looking For China and Ended Up In Puerto Rico" Day).

"Either Larur was here, or someone wants us to think he was," Khavakra says quetly.

"Either way we need to look around. Anyone know how to get past that door without making noise?"

Hello folks.

I'm afraid I've been bedridden for several days. My stomach is still in knots but I'm starting to feel better and I hope to catch up soon.

Bot me in the meantime if necessary.

Wisdom check to identify stain: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 [ooc]... meh.[/dice]

Khavakra listens to the beggar carefully.

Sense Motive vs. Beggar: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

Khavakra picks up one of the broken crossbow bolts, and rubs it between her fingers. I thought I would never see this stuff again, she thinks.

"Something's not right. Look at these," Khavakra says.

She shows the broken bolts to the others.

"This wood... it's not from the surface world. This is from a giant mushroom that grows in the Darklands. And this bloodstain... mixed with some other liquid. Very odd."

Is there a check to identify the liquid discoloring the bloodstains? Also, any chance there is a blood trail that could be followed with Survival skill?

"Would this Lymas Smeed have Darklanders working for him? It seems unlikely."

"We should check Larur's place for clues. Then perhaps we should do a bit of surveillance before we kick Smeed's door down... unless we think someone else migh be responsible."

Assuming no objections to checking out Larur's place...

Khavakra looks around Larur's flat, checking for clues. She goes over the flat carefully, taking her time.

Perception Take 20: 20 + 7 = 27

Khavakra shrugs. "Up to you," she says.

Khavakra would be indifferent, not being especially social, but would tag along if the others stayed for the drink. Which is probably good to do if we have some high CHA people around to network.

"Didn't realize there were gendarmes in this town," says Khavakra.

Khavakra shrugs. "If you want him, he's all yours. We got what we came for."

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

"I suppose we could if you wish... but all we had to do was recover the chips he stole. It looks like we've done that."

Also, sorry for not having the map up earlier. You wouldn't have had AoO at the beginning of combat, he was ten feet from the nearest of you.

"Not so fast."

Kavakra swings her Dendar-Durük as the man tries to escape.

AoO Dendar-Durük -4 nonlethal: 1d20 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 6 - 4 = 20
Nonlethal Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Khavarka runs down the alley to give chase.

If I am then able to charge again, I will. Otherwise I will get right up next to him and you can use this for my AoO:

I will now sing praises to the dice gods.

Map is up on Roll20 now, sorry for the delay.

The "beggar" dodges the thrown dagger and Chalkou's claws. However, he is swiftly becoming surrounded.

You didn't mention my attack. Did I hit? And who's up next?

I did not see this on the map, did he cross close enough to pick up any AOO?

We're all flat-footed, so we don't get to make AoOs unless you have Combat Reflexes or some other ability that lets you do that.

It will probably look bad if we kill the guy... Khavakra thinks.

Khavakra charges after the man, pulling out her Dendar-Durük as she goes. She swings the chained staff, trying to render the man unconscious.

Dendar-Durük +2 charge, -4 nonlethal: 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 6 - 2 = 19
Nonlethal Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Fortitude: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

"What!?" Khavakra shouts, trying to hear what Elek said.

Elek is right about surprise rounds.

Khavakra eyes the beggar, wondering if he is some kind of lookout.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

"Is she not around? Well... we can leave a message for her and perhaps she can catch up. Besides, Larur seemed to think it might take more than a day to track this guy down, and I'm sure we'll run into her by then. Let's get going."

"Sorry 'bout that, ma'am." The dwarf mumbles. "That was a cheat by the name Beltias Kreun. I was going to give him the thrashing he deserved but..." He thinks for a moment. "Could you do me a rather hefty favor? It'll look bad if that crook got away with this. If you and your cohorts can find him and recover the chips he stole I'd be indebted to you."

"Right. If you don't mind being a bit short-handed for a while..." Khavakra looks around. "You know where the Kreun spends his time?"

"They're offering a bounty on dead birds. I guess the local merchants don't like the stink. But the rats should take care of the problem in a day or two... I bet we'll have a bounty on rats after that. Ha!"

Khavakra shakes her head and returns to the Gold Goblin.

Nope not interested in picking up roadkill.

"Perhaps it was some kind of mental command?" Khavakra muses.

"It seems strange to build something like this just to have it kill a bunch of birds. Though this is a fishing town; I bet the fish are having a party right now below the waves."

"Uh... birds don't normally do that, do they? Don't get many birds underground."

Khavakra is curious, never having considered the Cyphergate before as anything but an ordinary (if large) monument.

"So it's magic? It just looks like a stone arch. What does the magic do? Looks like ships sail under it just fine..."

Perception (which is not likely to beat Elek!): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

'Now let's see what I can do to help get her out of whatever 'deal with the devil' she made.' Turning from Nessa to Samaritha, he smiles and asks. "Samaritha, since we have a little time off, would you like to go tour The Cyphergate? I've never visited it with someone who may actually be able to read the Thassilonian writings on it."

Samaritha's eyes light up at Elek's offer. "Oh, please? I'd love that! I found a few spots on the Gate when I looked at it last that I could show you."

"You can read that stuff? I always thought they were just decorative pictograms. What's the big deal with the Cyphergate anyway? Isn't it just a big arch?"

No need to RP buying a disguise kit unless there are interesting NPCs that you want us to interact with.

"At least nobody tried to exploit the situation and try to make off with any of your property," observes Khavakra.

I should be on the last use of my disguise kit so I want to go and buy another one.

Khavakra keeps watching the floor and the exits, looking for some sign that someone plans to exploit the disturbance for their own gain.

Delay.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
Sense Motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
Initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17

Damn!

"Some of us need to keep watching the floor. This could be a diversion."

Khavakra returns to her position by the door, continuing to keep an eye on Zincher from time to time.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
Sense Motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

Hey guys, have we made any money yet? I need to get another disguise kit.

Anyone care to volunteer to do a loot page?

Woot! Level time!

HP: 1d10 ⇒ 7

At this level I get Evasion and a bonus feat.

GM: The bonus feat list for unchained monk includes Scorpion Style, but not any other style feats for some reason. How do you feel about Crane Style?

GM: is it possible that you could use different icons for the bad guys on Roll 20?

The ones you are using are mostly transparent and very hard to see. They look like furniture. It would help me if the icons were squares like our icons, and not transparent. Color-coded borders would be even better (so I could say "I attack Red.").

Kavakra steps to one side and keeps swinging her Dendar-Durük.

"Who said anything about killing them? These amateurs are not worth it," Khavakra says.

5' step east then full attack again. Will go for the one between Elek and I first (because I am now flanking) and then if he goes down I will follow through on the one to my east.

Dendar-Durük, -4 nonlethal +2 flank: 1d20 + 4 - 4 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 4 - 4 + 2 = 22
Dendar-Durük, -4 nonlethal +2 flank: 1d20 + 4 - 4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 4 - 4 + 2 = 4
Dendar-Durük Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Crit?: 1d20 + 4 - 4 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 4 - 4 + 2 = 20

Oboy! Looks like a crit to me! :)

Crit bonus damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Couldn't see the sailors until I zoomed in. They seem to have white blobs on them and they looked like furniture.

Khavakra steps forward between two sailors, and lets fly with her Dendar-Durük, but tries to incapacitate her foes.

5' step and full attack. If one of the sailors I am facing is wounded (or more wounded than the other) I will go after him first, and switch to the healthier one if the first one goes down.

Dendar-Durük Flurry -4 nonlethal: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 - 4 = 19
Dendar-Durük Flurry -4 nonlethal: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 - 4 = 4

Crit?: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 - 4 = 3

Dendar-Durük Damage (nonlethal): 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Khavakra draws her Dendar-Durük.

"If you have a complaint, we can talk. But you draw steel in here, that makes you robbers. Drop the swords or prepare to use them," Khvakra says.

BTW I assume we have rested up and regained HP... my block still shows 7 damage which I think is from the very first fight.

Khavakra scans the crowd for signs of trouble.

Looks like another wizard, she thinks when the woman with the books goes by. Not much of a talker, shesimply watches as Elek and Nessa approach her.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

"I can tell you now... I don't know anything about gambling or cooking, but I know how to deal with someone that gets rowdy. I'll stick with bein' a bouncer."

Khavakra nods and then returns to her quarters.

"Ruben at the Fish Bowl also said this was the last favor. But yeah, that's about it."

Job done, Chalkou heads for the door. "This place stinks, let's get out of here." he whispers to the others as he passes.

Khavakra nods and follows.

Ready to move on.

Khavakra looks over the woman carefully.

sense motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

never mind.

Khavakra looks the human behind the desk over.

"Uh, right. Got a letter from Saul Vancaskerkin. We're supposed to say: 'Vancaskerkin's calling in his favors.' I assume you know what that means - if you don't, maybe you can direct me to the one who does."

Assuming the woman seems to understand, Khavakra hands her the letter.

street fight

'Cowards' Walking to where the thugs dropped their weapons, Elek picks them up and discreatly puts them in his pack. He then turns to the others and ask, "So where you three off to?"

Khavakra watches the gang run away, frowning. She soon returns to normal size.

"We have one more message to deliver. Then we should let Saul know what just happened here."

Khavakra pulls a segmented staff from her cloak, and unfurls it.

In the surprise round I'll take a move action to draw a weapon.

"Maybe your Boss Zincher should come by Saul's place for a sit-down? Give them a chance to kiss and make up? What do you think?" As she speaks she pulls the ends of her Dendar-Durük taut, and the chains give an ominous click.

Edit: GM: just looked at the Roll 20 map. Moved myself forward with a 5' step also. Can you make my icon Large?
