Ashes the Silent's page

@GM Erich, Thanks for running this! Good times!

"I know there are talented healers here. I can help. Just let me know."
Looking weary, Ashes walks over to where she dropped her bow and picks it up.

Ashes, tiring of Orange's tricks, drops her bow, quickdraws her sword, and moves to meet the witchwyrd face to face.

strike: 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 16 + 1 = 35
strike MAP: 1d20 + 16 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (3) + 16 + 1 - 4 = 16

Damage: 2d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (6, 2) + 6 + 1 = 15
Damage: 2d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (5, 4) + 6 + 1 = 16

persistent bleed: 1d6 ⇒ 5

◆ Stride ◆ Strike ◆ Strike

I find stabilize best used when someone is Dying 3 or so, but generally it's okay.

Now if the argument is that there are better uses for a two-action Cast a Spell, that's certainly valid.

Ashes has this cantrip and the fire one, otherwise is typical rogue. I made the decision to stabilize Alonzo over any other actions because I deemed him to be to important, even if only dying 1. I would have moved Ashes over to treat wounds on next turn to bring him around becuase he is far more capable of large damage.

So maybe it's a newbie response, but it was my response.

In the absence of successfull death save rolls, I find that cantrip to be useful.

Ashes looks into her quiver to reassure herself, then fires three shots at Orange.
"You should pick better looking friends. Those three that showed late to the party were ugly!"

Attack 1, IC: 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 16 + 1 = 18
Attack 2 MAP, IC: 1d20 + 16 + 1 - 5 ⇒ (17) + 16 + 1 - 5 = 29
Attack 3 MAP 2, IC: 1d20 + 16 + 1 - 10 ⇒ (4) + 16 + 1 - 10 = 11

Damage: 2d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2, 4) + 2 + 1 = 9
Damage: 2d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6, 4) + 2 + 1 = 13
Deadly on Crit?: 1d10 ⇒ 4

Seeing Alonzo's predicament, Ashes will cast Stabilize on the fallen dwarf. Then, focusing on the orange, she will draw and shoot and arrow.

Attack(IC): 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 16 + 1 = 21
damage(IC): 2d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (5, 3) + 2 + 1 = 11

Mirror?: 1d4 ⇒ 4

◆◆ Stabilize (Wildborn Magic) ◆ Attack

@Ashes, I think you'd have to at least step to target anyone, so just the first shot

Forget the last action then and leave the rapier on the ground, two shots.

Acting from stealth, Ashes drops her rapier and draws her bow, aiming at orange.

Sneak Attack-Orange: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (11) + 16 = 27
Second Shot-Orange: 1d20 + 16 - 5 ⇒ (14) + 16 - 5 = 25

Sneak Attack Damage-O: 2d6 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (5, 5) + 2 + (3, 6) = 21
Damage-O: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (3, 5) + 2 = 10

Finally, satisfied, she will Pick up her rapier.

◆ Bowshot ◆ Bowshot ◆ Manipulation (pick up Rapier)

Ashes nods to Alonzo. "Family profession. Been doing this since I was knee high to a halfling." Then, bowing her her head she mutters a small prayer to Milani for their guide and his companion.
Sigh.

Snatching up her bow Ashes follows Eliza, avoiding notice while clutching her rapier.

Ashes walks over to Zinadrina to assist with healing and says to her,
"I'd offer the Risky Surgery option, but I think we can stop that bleeding with normal medical treatment."

DC20-Medicine: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (11) + 15 = 26
Healing: 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (2, 8) + 10 = 20

"Crunch, do you want in on this?"

DC20-Medicine: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (17) + 15 = 32
Healing: 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (2, 5) + 10 = 17

Ashes pulls another arrow and aims at the Rakshasha that was Rindle. "Well played, deceiver! Now play with this!"

Attack on R: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (11) + 16 = 27
Damage: 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (1, 6) + 6 = 13

Following that, she will tumble through the former squirrel, then drop her bow and quick-draw her sword.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (11) + 17 = 28

Attack on C: 1d20 + 16 - 4 ⇒ (13) + 16 - 4 = 25
Damage+wounding: 2d6 + 6 + 1d6 ⇒ (6, 2) + 6 + (5) = 19

Successful FF:
Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 5) = 7

◆ Attack (bow) ◆ Tumble through ◆ Attack (sword)

Ahes sights on the creature-formerly-known-as-Rindle and shoots twice.

Bowshot FF IC: 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 16 + 1 = 37
Piercing Damage-Sneak/Surprise: 2d6 + 2 + 1 + 2d6 ⇒ (2, 6) + 2 + 1 + (4, 3) = 18

Bowshot MAP IC: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 1 = 24
Piercing Damage IC: 2d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (5, 3) + 2 + 1 = 11

Crit: deadly d10: 1d10 ⇒ 6

"What is that thing? What happened to Rindle?"

◆ Shoot from Stealth ◆ Shoot with MAP ◆ Recall Knowledge

No shield, instead Ashes will attempt to stealth behind the tree to her west.

◆ Sneak to tree +1 from armor ◆ Hide if sneak works +1 from armor

Re: Shield. LOL. Ashes has used a buckler for most of her career. I forgot that she has a Sturdy Shield.

Ashes Raises her shield as she responds to Alonzo and points south with her bow,"I don't know what's going on, but I aim to be prepared. I saw movement in the bushes to the south, and don't see Rindle anywhere."

◆ Quickdraw bow ◆ Retrieve shield ◆ Raise shield

Taking a moment to look around after that awful Ashes notices that Rindle isn't with the rest of the group, and discovers the halfling hiding. How strange. Not wanting to directly confront small fry, she uses the cantrip Produce Flame to conjure a small distraction in order to sneak behind and observe Rindle.

To help Alonzo, if he so wishes, Ashes will patch him up with some medical care.

Ashes is Expert in medicine with assurance. She can perform Risky Surgery on anyone who needs LOTS of healing.
Also, Continual recovery, battle medicine

Ashes looks around in bewilderment then hurries to stand next to Krakazh.

Seeing that Alonzo is taking care of the plant northwest of her, Ashes will stride to the one in the south and try to fix that one, then stride back to where she started.

Medicine Check: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (9) + 15 = 24

◆ Stride ◆ Medicine Check ◆ Stride

The plant east of Ashes isn't fixed on a 32?

See Monday's post @ 9:43

"Hunh. Ugly is a complimentary description."

Deciding to help rid the world of this unpleasantness, Ashes draws and shoots at Red, then moves to the north, to cast seeds. East

Attack: Red: 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 16 + 1 = 30
Damage: 2d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4, 3) + 2 + 1 = 10

Medicine Check: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (17) + 15 = 32

◆ Quick Draw ◆ Move ◆ Garden

With eyebrows raised and eyes wide open in amazement, Ashes peers into the nothingness that was a pair of axiomites moments before and, in her usual laconic style, utters, "Strange."

Avoid Notice. Stealth +16 +1 (Shadow Armor)

Not wanting to risk annoying the anlytical creature, Ashes stays back behind the group and clasps her hands in front of her to appear non-threatening.

Ashes moves in with a well-practiced tumbling routine.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 17 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 17 + 1 = 36

Will Save > 22: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (15) + 15 = 30

Oh Yeah! Thank you mother. Ashes knows were her strength of will comes from.
She turns and grins at the group.

Following the end of conflict Ashes responds to Zinadrina's comment: Breeze? She lost most of her health to wounds and THAT "skirmish was a breeze?"
"Breeze. Hah!" She breaks out in raucous laughter over the silly pun, but the act causes even more pain.

1.Ashes also has medical training, including Continual Recovery and Risky Surgery for the brave.

2. I made this post this morning, but must have failed to submit it after preview.

Will Save: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (7) + 15 = 22 Ashes is nothing if not stubborn, and is able to regain control of herself through force of will.

Ashes picks up her sword from where she dropped it, then moves close to Blue for an attack.

Strike: 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 16 + 1 = 35
Damage to Blue: 2d6 + 1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (3, 5) + (5) + 6 + 1 = 20
Crit?
◆ Pick up +1 Wounding Sword ◆ Stride ◆ Strike

Fortitude: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 10 + 1 = 12

"That Jinn is a freak of Nature!"

Bowstrike: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (3) + 16 = 19
Piercing Damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (1, 5) + 2 = 8

Sigh.

◇ Kip up ◆ Pick up Bow ◆ Strike Orange

healing from treat wounds: 2d8 ⇒ (3, 6) = 9

To clarify Ashes' next-to-last post, it wasn't a crit fail so,
drop sword ◆◆ quickdraw bow, strike twice, ◆treat wounds.

Another with the wind! Ashes has nothing to hold onto, but hunkers down as best she can.

Fortitude DC 21 ID: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 10 + 1 = 12

She struggles against the wind and fails, getting pushed prone 20 feet away from the Orange. Using Kip Up she stands then draws her bow and fires two arrows at Orange, then pulls out her shield.

+1 Bowstrike: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (12) + 16 = 28
damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (6, 5) + 2 = 13

+1 Bowstrike: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 6) + 2 = 13

treat wounds: 4d8 ⇒ (6, 7, 5, 7) = 25

Assurance: medicine, Prf: 15, Auto Crit @ DC=15

◇ Kip up ◆ Strike ◆ Strike ◆ Battle Medicine

This is my first character in Pathfinder, and my second character in any rpg. I'm used to playing her on Foundry, which totals all the attacks and damages for you, so am not sure if I did it right, (though I am aware the attacks probably missed.)

Hidden and sneaking from behind, Ashes strikes at purple with her shortsword.

strike-piercing: 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 16 + 1 = 19
sneak attack damage: 4d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (1, 2, 5, 5) + 6 + 1 = 20

She will then move to flank against blue with Crunch, and strike.

strike-piercing: 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 12 + 1 = 18
FF attack damage: 4d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (5, 3, 4, 1) + 6 + 1 = 20

Adding IC, ◆Strike Purple ◆Move ◆Strike Blue
Not that is matters, probably, but Persistent bleed:
purple: 1d6 ⇒ 6blue: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Clutching the wall in front of her, Ashes tries valiantly to resist the wind.

Fortitude: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 1 = 18

Holding action to determine outcome of attacks on Red.

Hero Point:Fortitude: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 10 + 1 = 26

Thinking through her best moves, Ahes steps next to Red, quick draws her shortsword and strikes against the creature that harmed her.

Strike, IC, RK: 1d20 + 16 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 16 + 1 + 1 = 27
Damage, IC: 3d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (1, 4, 2) + 6 + 1 = 14

"You started this fight," she growls.

+1 Striking Shortsword with Wounding Rune; Hit: +16, 2d6+6 (+1d6 Persistent Bleed)

She then tumbles through to the other side of Red and attempts to hide behind the wall.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34
stealth: 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 16 + 1 = 36

Armor with shadow rune becomes hazy black. You gain a +1 item bonus to Stealth checks while wearing the armor.

◆ Step
◆ Quickdraw/ strike
◆ Tumble through 15 feet

Ashes stills herself, calling forth her stubborn nature to force this new body to do her bidding:

Will: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (8) + 15 = 23

Ash is extremely curious, but caution wins out. She stays behind the pillar looking all around for danger, attempting to stay hidden.

As the group approaches the statue, Ash looks to her left at the bard ducking behind the pillar. Fingering the fletching on one of her arrows, she too slides down in an attempt to hide, and readies for trouble.

Avoid notice typical, searching for traps in dungeons. Bow at ready in uncertain conditions-like on the Maze Road...

Ashes nods to the halfling. "Pleased tam uan faath acquaintance. Na bellflowers goo ejal lovely naas gerar."

Her eyes widen upon seeing the portal vanish. She then moves to the front of the group.

Ashes will scout if there are no scouts. Also, she has Trapfinder

Ready.

Can you suggest any potions or equipment that will aid our travel through the maze? Ash is a little worried about the Maze. She is very uncomfortable with magic; she may know a couple of cantrips, but they aren't real magic.

Following on the heels of the druid and the musical goblin is a tall red-haired half-elf. Her Ulfen heritage is demonstrated by the high color in her cheeks. She wears light armor that exudes a shadowy appearance, and is prepared for a fight with a shortsword on her hip, a bow strapped to her backpack, and intricately wrapped cloth around her hands. Her vivid red mantle seems out of place on the rogue.
Looking around she grins. "This looks like an interesting group! Hello, all. My name is Ashes, though I may change it to Sparks.

I'm OK with some splash damage. Please check my hit points first.

Starts 24h after I notice 4 signups

Lillifri is overcome with gratitude. She rushes off to sign up for this new table.

Did Aeshuura get in? I think they were having trouble registering with RPGChronicle (though you can sign in without registering).

If they missed out due to technical problems, I (TDM Gunslinger Experiment) will bow out for them.

See my post in the discussion.

Lillifri’s intelligence stat is somewhat lower than Jinak’s, and she tends to skip over words without completely understanding what she is reading. She is removing her registration from RPG Chronicles.

After reading the thread, I realized I misunderstood Aeshuura’s comment; I thought they found a game elsewhere.

I hope she is able to make this right.
