Thank you, Ulgulanoth, for the opportunity. It was fun while it lasted. I hope to play with all of you again in the future.

Aerodus wakes up to find some of the resistance members back. Hearing the news, Aerodus asks, "Okay. So the king's murderer has been named. So, what job does the resistance have for us?" He crosses his arms.

Is Janiven back and decursed?

Are we all still here?

Wasn't Trinia Sabor the person that the resistance was going to use to kill the Queen (at least in this game)?

Aerodus turns to Lia. "Precisely. We need to get things in order. That way, we have our priorities." He looks around. "So, we're going to rest for now?"

Aerodus looks at Venator. "I have no idea. One of us is paralyzed. There's no one here. I have no idea what to do!" He then starts to grumble.

Aerodus frowns as Venator reads the inscription on the locket. "Great. That sounds so optimistic."

Aerodus pulls out the locket. "It's a... locket. Very expensive looking. Solid gold. Large diamond and..." He flips it over. "...something written on the back. I can't read the language, though."

Aerodus stares intensely at Lia as her words settle in. With a sigh, he heads back to his chair.

So, what's in the box?

Aerodus turns to Venator. "To find Koriah! She has to answer for this! What's even in this box anyways?!" He looks to see what's inside the box.

Aerodus sighs as he sheathes his sword. He then grabs the notes and the box and makes for the door, a heavy scowl on his face.

Is that all of them?

Aerodus grins as the creature is bisected. He then lashes out at the other one with his longsword.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
Attack reroll: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Okay. A bit curious as to why.

Inititive: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Crit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
Extra Damage (if confirmed): 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Aerodus gives a shout as the two creatures pop out of the box. With a scowl, he draws his longsword and attacks the closest one. [bigger]"D****t, Koriah!"

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

GM

Aerodus looks over the notes and the box intently, trying to open it. Seeing Lia being so calm with the wine, Aerodus growls and mutters, "Fine." He gets up, gets a cup from his mess kit, and pours himself some wine as well.

Int: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15

@Lia

When Lia freaks out about the tube's contents, Aerodus looks up. He takes the contents and looks them over. "Well, think of it like this, Lia: you've learned not to take everything from random strangers. And we have a way to make some coin." Aerodus smirks and chuckles lightly, taking another drink from his cup.

Aerodus looks at Andando holding up the bottle of wine. "I'm a bit apprehensive about doing that. I've been to enough high society parties to know what happens when there's too much wine being consumed. However, I will take a sip. And only a sip." Aerodus takes the bottle, takes a swig, and pours back over the puzzle box and notes.

Looking at Venator, Aerodus holds up the box. "It's a puzzle box. Koriah told me to open it. Said that the notes will help."

When Lia asks her question, Aerodus looks to her and says, "Even though the meeting was brief, she reminded me of you. Strong-willed, determined, seems like she doesn't take s**t from anyone."

Aerodus looks up at Lia. "Acted a tad like Lia, too. No offense to half-elves, of course."

Aerodus doesn't look up from the notes as he answers Venator's question. "A Pathfinder named Koriah gave this to me. Apparently, some of the prisoners I was with are associates of hers. Just to my luck, she was a half-elf."

Aerodus looks up to stare at the interaction between Andando and Lia. With a snort, Aerodus looks at the notes and begins reading them.

Aerodus helps place Jirani safely. He then begins to pace for a bit. He then decides to sit down and pull out the puzzle box and notes that the Pathfinder gave him.

Back to the hideout it is then...

You guys think we should upgrade our gear?

I would say the hideout.

Aerodus frowns at Lia. "Well, I apologize for not using the names of the first group of people I've ever worked with, who only met a few days ago, in this backwoods country, with me being required to just about every problem under the bloody sun!"

I forgot the word 'solve' before just.

Aerodus frowns at Lia. "Well, I apologize for not using the names of the first group of people I've ever worked with, who only met a few days ago, in this backwoods country, with me being required to just about every problem under the bloody sun!"

But before he can retort, Andando appears. When Andando calls Aerodus 'stiff as a board', Aerodus scowls slightly. It deepens when Lia somewhat agrees with him. "Very funny, Andando and Lia. You are all so hilarious."

When Andando says he was watching the kids, Aerodus snorts. "You? Look after kids? Yeah right. As if anyone would trust you with their kids."

Aerodus growls under his breath. "Well then, Lia. I'm only trying to help. That's what a team does, right? Or am I mistaken?" He looks at her with a critical eye.

Yay for inter-party banter!

Does anyone know if Andando still with us?

Aerodus takes the other side of Jirani, arm around his shoulders. "I'll help. I'm just as strong as you, magus. Besides, you seem out of breath. It might slow us down." Turning his head to Venator, he says, "Priest, see if you can figure out the Andando's whereabouts."

Aerodus looks to Lia. "I don't know how Jirani's doing. And I have no bloody idea where Andando is!"

Aerodus turns to Venator. [b]"It's only a scratch."[/ooc]

Aerodus frowns as the imps flee. Aerodus turns to Jirani to see his condition.

Oops. I just now realized I forgot about Venator's Touch of Luck. Sorry.

Level Up!

Jirani for HP roll it for this one, and then from the next time onwards we'll allow for 1/2 dice +1, since everyone else rolled and it wasn't an option before it wouldn't be fair to them.

So that would be 5 + 1 + 1 (half dice + 1 + Con mod) = 7

Favored Class Bonus: +1 HP

So that's 8 hp total.

+1 BAB
+1 Will
+1 to Wild Empathy

+1 CMB (now +5)
+1 CMD (now 18)

New Feat: Weapon Focus (longbow)
New Class Feature: Endurance as bonus feat
New Class Feature: Favored Terrain (forest)

+8 Skill Points! (6 skill points + 1 [Int] + 1 [skilled racial trait])
--+1 Survival (now +8)
--+1 Intimidate (now +6)
--+1 Perception (now +8)
--+1 Stealth (now +9)
--+1 Knowledge (Nature) (now +7)
--+1 Handle Animal (now +5)
--+1 Knowledge (geography) (now +6)
--+1 Swim (now +7)

Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Aerodus gives a mighty bellow as the imps flee, swinging his blade at one of them.

AoO: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19 If I get the flanking bonus, then it's 21.

Aerodus shouts in anger, blood rapidly flowing and his faint fiendish traits calling out. He swings his blade at the imp he's flanking.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 2 = 9
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Hey. Just to let everyone know, I'll be in Chicago this weekend starting tomorrow. So posting may be sporadic.

Round 5: Actions
I'll do the same as Lia.
Move Action: Move to flank an imp with Jirani (different from the imp Lia's attacking)
Standard Action: Attack the imp!

Aeordus looks at the dragons flying off. "BLOODY FLYING LIZARDS!! COME BACK HERE AND HELP US!!" He moves to Jirani's aid and swings at one of the imps.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 4 + 2 = 23
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Aerodus takes his sword and readies it, waiting for the next imp to show.

Readied Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Sorry to hear that, Jirani.

Here's to more luck in the future.

Aerodus scowls and gives a bellow of rage as he hacks into his imp.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Aerodus takes another swing at the imp he's fighting.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

He scowls as he misses.

Looks like it.

Fortitude: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15

Aerodus shouts out when he feels the barb sink into his arm. He stares at the imp, scowl increasing.

Seeing the imp that's attacking Jirani, Aerodus scowls. He swings his blade at it!

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13 15 vs human subtype

Aerodus frowns. 'Flying things...' Deciding not to attack with his bow, he draws his longsword and makes ready to attack.

Ready attack for when an enemy comes near.

Readied Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

So, is Lia's caravan still in Sandpoint?

Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

Aerodus frowns as he sees his companions haven't arrived. He turns to the prisoners. "Stay here." He then heads out. He tries to spot them or track them down, all while trying to keep his identity secret.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 2 = 25
Survival to track (if it can be used): 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 8 + 2 = 23
Stealth (if used to hide identity: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
BLuff (if used to hide identity: 1d20 ⇒ 12 14 vs human subtype
