Round 1 - SE Room

Alexis moves into the room, swinging her scarf around her body. "This one smells a little less bad, at least" she jokes.

Uttering an incantation in an arcane tongue, Alexis again tries to bring the power of the north to bear on the Trogdolyte.

Casting ray of frost
Ranged Attack: 1d20 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 - 2 = 3
damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

Looks like a miss.

Round 2

Alexis spins around in a whirl, her scarf cutting through the air which a slight whistle. She sends the fast moving end toward the last standing Troglodyte, hoping to cut it with the speed of the fabric. As the scarf moves, it begins to crackle with magical energy.

Move action: Draw Bladed Scarf (not clearly out before)
Swift action: arcane strike
Standard action: attack!

attack with bladed scarf: 1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 3 - 2 = 17
damage: 1d6 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 3 - 2 = 7

Status: sickened 9/10

Round 1

Alexis bursts through the door and sends shards of wood into the room. Once she steps in, she is hit with the wave of stench from the inhabitants of the room.

fortitude save, dc13: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

She retches and tries to maintain her footing as her eyes burn.

Alexis tries to cast a spell through her choking.

concentration: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 I assume this is appropriate?

The cloud of stench is too much for Alexis and she fails to cause a magical event.

Status: Sickened 10/10 rounds.

Alexis puts her scarf about her shoulders and puts her hands against the door. "It looks like we have a choice between this and the bats. Everybody care to lend a hand? Lean into the door"

Alexis starts to push with all of her might.

strength, dc15: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

Alexis follows the rest of the group up the stairs, trying to stay toward the middle.

After the experiences of the day, she keeps her scarf unwound and in her hands.

Responding to Natsume, Alexis shrugs. "I could go either way. The stars are always an option if we don't want to deal with the bats."

Alexis tries to remember what she knows about bats.

know(nature): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

"Be careful. Normal weapons won't do much to the bats at large. You may kill a bat or two but there are likely thousands of them, " she warns.

She fingers the bottle on her bandolier. We could try to burn them out. Does anybody else have fire or oil? Then, looking at Saleem, she asks "Can you project fire over a distance?"

Alexis asks "Is everybody OK?" before joining Natsume in looking around the room.

Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10

I am on board with the delay until after Willow

Alexis waits until Willow shows an opening in combat. That is the delay.

Once an opening is made, she tries again to summon the power of cold.

Ranged Touch, Ray of Frost: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13
Damage: 2d3 ⇒ (1, 1) = 2

Round 2

By my measuring, Alexis is too far away to use the ray so no standard action in round 1.

Now that the Skeletons have advanced into the room, Alexis jumps into action.

Move action: S, S

Starting with a monotone chant, Alexis summons a ray of cold from the far north. Ray of Frost

Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
Damage (double): 2d3 ⇒ (1, 2) = 3

Free action...a quick shout.

Alexis shouts to her companions as she recalls something about the skeletons, "Be careful of getting near those skeletons! Their great heat can harm things that get too close. If you can use cold, it will hurt them more."

As they enter the temple...
"Nethys you say?" asks Alexis rhetorically, "I do think I would be careful. "

Round 1

Once the skeletons show themselves...
know(religion): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10 The extra knowledge roll is to see if anything would be revealed about the skeletons. Alexis is untrained so maximum effectiveness is DC10.

Alexis removes the scarf from around her neck and starts swinging it around in the air. Move action: draw weapon

Alexis begins to chant and readies a spell! Readied action: cast Disrupt undead (25', ranged touch attack) if one of the skeletons comes into range.

Sorry about those few days all. I should be back to regular posting now.

Alexis moves in with the rest of the group. Thinking of their efforts to climb into the tower she says, "I agree, climbing up may not be the best way. "

Alexis makes sure she is out of the way so Kaede can get to the door.

Continuing to push on the door in a futile effort, Alexis agrees with everybody else. "Agreed, I don't think this is going anywhere."

Alexis will try to help open the blocked door.

"Surely, " she replies to Willow. "Just make me a space big enough to get a good stance and I'll do what I can."

Strength check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Hrm... or not.

Alexis chuckles a bit, "I don't think I'm going to do anything to that trap other than set it off. Does anybody know how to take it apart safely?"

Round 3

I think this creature will not be long for this world, says Alexis to herself. Let's make sure none of us are hurt.

Alexis channels some of her energy into her scarf. Arcane Strike, Swift action

After charging up her scarf, Alexis brings it down on their adversary.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
damage: 1d6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 1 = 6

That is almost certainly a hit, based on last round.

When Alexis' scarf makes contact with the creature, it discharges some magic with a crack like the end of a whip.

All this assumes there is room around the troglodyte to get into melee range. If there isn't, I guess Alexis will mostly stand around and look pretty.

Alexis runs after the creature as it tries to escape and spins around, causing her scarf to fly through the air with a slight whistle. She aims the fast moving end of the scarf at the creature.

attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Alexis whips the scarf off of her shoulders and prepares for a battle. That's a move action for her, so she probably can't do anything else in the first round unless the other troglodyte approaches her.

Looking around the room, Alexis tries to see if they have missed anything in the room. Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18

If she finds nothing, or at least nothing that would keep them from going up....

"Up it is, " agrees Alexis.

She waits for a break in the line to form, then climbs the stairs when the opportunity presents itself.

"Clear a place at the door for me, if you would" says Alexis.

Once a space forms, she plants her shoulder against the door and starts to push.

Aid Another, strength: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

So much for that. Good luck somebody else.

Alexis gathers up with the rest of the group, ready to burst into the other room.

Alexis picks at the remains of the dog to see if anything else has been missed. "I wonder what that spider ate before the tower was opened. It had to have quite the food source to get that large."

Once everybody has gotten themselves settled she says, "Should we push on?"

Alexis wraps her scarf back around herself. "Agreed, nice job everybody," she says with a smile.

While everyone collects themselves, Alexis looks around the area. perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10

Round 2!

Alexis moves up to the spider and whips her scarf around in circles. It makes a slight whistling noise as the hidden blades move through the air.

melee attack on spider: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Round 2 summary:
Move action: N, N,N
Standard action: attack with bladed scarf.

Round 1

Alexis moves north, then northwest, and northwest again. Do you want us to move our tokens ourselves or would you prefer to do it?

Once she has reached her destination, Alexis casts Ray of Frost on the spider. Ranged touch: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14 damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Action summary
Move: N, NW, NW
Standard action: cast ray of frost

Is anybody else planning on casting light or lighting a torch? Alexis can do it as needed.

Alerted by some unexpected movement, Alexis takes her bladed scarf off of her shoulders and begins to move it in circles around her body.

Surprise round:
Move action: Draw bladed scarf

Alexis drapes her scarf over her shoulders, leaving the ends loose to move with her.

"Yes, let us be off. It looks to me like we can only go to the northwest," as she points in that direction.

Sorry for being late... rough real life for the past day or so.

Alexis grabs the rope and tries to climb up. Climb check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

After struggling a bit, Alexis makes it to the top of the rope. "Great plan on tying knots in the rope. That made a huge difference. I'm ready now."

Once she gets to the top, Alexis looks around the area.

Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11

Alexis has rope

Alexis looks up at the tower. "It seems we need to climb up there in order to get in."

Is anybody set up as a climber or should she give it a shot?

Alexis smells the meat as it begins to char in Saleem's hands.

"I'm ready to move once we throw the meat," she says.

Any skill check needed to avoid the dogs noticing us?

Alexis nods to Fed and smiles to the rest of the group, "Let's be off then. We have some exploring to do."

Confirming I can see the map.

Once at the castle, Alexis helps everybody scan the outside.

perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15

Alexis accepts the drink Do I read this as tea or spirits? while they wait for their last compatriot.

After Kaede finishes, Alexis says "Good to meet you, Kaede. I'm Alexis V'eron. How did you get from Minkai to Absalom? That sounds like quite the long journey."

Heyas all! I made it to the gameplay thread.

Once Alexis received the invitation to meet the collector, she arrives promply at the designated location.

"Nice to meet you, Fed Warang. I think I am good for supplies. "

After letting the rest of the group ask a few questions, Alexis adds one. "What types of things most interest our sponsor? The more we know about what he finds interesting, the easier it is for us to see that the trip will be.... fruitful."

I'm about 90% done with mechanics. Just need to finish equipment and do a final check. Most everything is in the profile.

So, ready to go when the thread issues get fixed.

I'll get myself all finished up tonight. Thanks for letting me join!

Oh! I'd like to get in on this if I can.

Need to finish up my sheet, but been wanting to start a new character.
