I hear you. PFS adventures seem very hit or miss when it comes to the quality of the encounters and the adventure arc as a whole. I still enjoyed the run, regardless of the ending :)

See, one should never trust gnomes. It is best to turn them into kebab instead. Mhm, succulent gnome kebab with a fresh serving of tzatziki..

Thanks for the run!

"..Okay mon."

Avis and Tongi let go of Kalkamedes, but the druid readies his weapons just in case.

"Could be fey as well, mon. Gnomes be linked to da spirits in ways I do not understand."

Avis and Tongi stop Kalkamedes again and whilst struggling to keep the man away from the woman, he asks,"Eh.. we be sure?"

"You want me to let Kalka go and see what he does?"

"You be goin' nowhere mon!"

Avis grapple: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
Tongi grapple: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

Avis makes sure Kalkamedes doesn't do anything crazy while the others investigate.

Avis takes a quick look around in the room once he gets down. After that he readies himself to follow Amar through the narrow 5 foot wide exit. "I got your back, mon."

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

"Eh .. I suppose we should follow him when the cage comes back up ehgain."

As soon as the cage returns, Avis will get in - with Tongi AND Kalkamedes, if it fits.

The druid's jaw drops to the ground as he stares at the contraption. By Pharasma's baby-killing udders..

"I'mma let deh clever people figure this one out, mons.."

"Quit yer whining, womahn, we got your back! Just like you normally have ours." The druid looks at her and shakes his head. Maybe he should be gallant and offer to cook her dinner after.. yes, that would certainly push her over the treshold. "If you do this, I'll cook ya a lovely dinner out of that dire skunk we just chopped up!"

The mere thought of it causes the druid to inadvertently lick his lips. Herb-crusted skunk steak..

"Oh mon, dis be bad voodoo fo' sure!..", Avis says while making warding gestures in the air with his fingers. He then kisses a charm that hangs from one his bracelets.

Avis gets off the dais.

"I eh .. we probably best all go through at once, because deh doors might close and you won't get in by yeself."

Avis clicks with his tongue to communicate with Tongi and then says in common,"Let 'im go." If Avis can't go to the door, maybe the door can come to him..

Let us see what happens when Kalkamedes walks onto the dais..

The druid scratches his head, perhaps in an attempt to get the few brain cells he has to work a little harder.

"I'm not feeling so good now, mon .."

"Be my guest .. and no, the weakness came and went as I walked into that area."

With that being said, he returns with shield and scimitar in hands to the dais.

"Maybe deh spirits can help you, Amarthecthel."

Guidance for a +1 on your spellcraft check.

"That spot be bad vooodoo.", the druid says as he points at the raised area.

Avis then kneels down next to the snake and pets him on the head. He speaks in a strange language, polyglot, to the snake and then shrugs as he points at the skunk. Now would be an awful time to suffer from digestion problems.

Avis mumbles something about deh spirits and then starts checking the room for traps and such.

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

Avis uses the moment the skunk raises his tail to slice it in two.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
2d6 + 8 ⇒ (2, 6) + 8 = 16

I love you too, dice.

Avis rushes forward to slice up the skunk. Meanwhile, Tongi keeps on hugging the sleepwalking Pathfinder.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

"Best grab your weapons and chop that thing up!", the druid says as he points at the shadow. He then casts light on his scimitar, realizing he might cause the situation to escalate.

Wild Empathy with a -2 on charisma won't work, haha.

Avis sniffs and tells Amarthecthel to wait a second. Perhaps he can use his sense of smell to get an idea of what's inside.

Knowledge Nature: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
Do I have any clue as to what might be lurking inside?

The druid fumbles as he attempts to grapple Kalkamedes, but quickly instructs Tongi to assist him by wrapping himself around the man's feet. "Quick! Someone check da entrance for magicks."

Avis: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Tongi: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24

"Oh mon, this image spells trouble. Moonlight, fading realms, this smells like fey! Dem whimsy spirits be damned if that be true."

Knowledge Nature: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

I got no clue whether this is right, I'm just playing how Avis would react :D

8 damage in total yes :)

Kalkamedes is hit for 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4 and 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4. He flinches but keeps stumbling forward.

"Might be good choice mon to see to Kalkamehdez as well."

"Quickly, see to his wounds and let us resume our duties.", Avis snaps at the group. He rushes back to the side of Kalkamedes, but this time holds his scimitar in one hand.

Avis and Tongi run up to one and while the snake curls up around the man, grappling him, Avis leans in to give the man a piece of his mind. "I'mma give you one chance to run, mon. You bettah take it .. ", he says as he flashed wicked sharp teeth, leaning in further so that no one can hear what he says..

Tongi Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
Tongi Grab: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30
Avis Intimidate: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (17) - 1 = 16

Avis curses as he charges a bandit. While running he draws his scimitar, instructs Tongi to assist him and slashes away at the fool.

Charge+draw weapon @ bandit B4
Avis Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
Avis Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Tongi Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Tongi Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Tongi Grapple: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15

And so comes an end to my luck with dice on Avis :D

Avis wanted to slap Delphinia. Her pride wasn't worth his life! But Avis did hope the situation would escalate. He was ready to dive to the side into the bushes and roll onto the ground for cover.

At the slightest hand of danger, Avis dives to his right, seeking cover/concealment from/in the forest.

I flank him on his right side.

Avis lets go of Kalkamedes and charges the bear. Mid-sprint he draws his scimitar and strikes in tandem with Tongi.

Tongi Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Grab: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

Avis Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
Avis Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
If crit: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 + 6 = 15 damage.

Anyone up for bear sandwich?

Tongi snakes forward and strikes from the shadows, wrapping itself around the bear. Avis holds on to Kalkamedes, keeping him out of harm's way.

It charges out of stealth .. maybe the bear is flat-footed?
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
Grab: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16
Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Avis wraps his arms around Kalkamedes and gives him an affectionate bear hug to keep him in place. He instructs Tongi to lie low and the snake uses the cover to hide, ready to strike if the group is attacked.

Grapple: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19
Stealth: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27

The druid scratches his head. "I eh .. should know this I suppose .. ", but it is obvious that right now he can't give Paewyn the answer she wants.

Knowledge Nature: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

IF we keep the old set-up, Amarthecthel is ahead of Kalkamades, Avis is next to/supporting Kalkamades and the rest are just behind.

Perhaps Luthor is flanking Kalkamdes on his other side.

Avis instructs Tongi to wrap himself around the legs of the man, without hurting him. He then grapples the man's torso and starts dragging him AROUND the bog instead of straight across.

Grapple Tongi: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18
Grapple Avis: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23

The mighty elf flexes his muscles I see!

"Oh no mon, dat be a bad idea!", Aviz mutters. He inspects the area as he follows Kalkamedes.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

The wanton destruction of nature stings Avis, but he makes a note to tell Delphinia to plant a tree or bush later on to make up for it. Sadly for the druid, his memory is one of his weaker traits and the odds that he'll remember are small.

"I'mma think he be hearing deh summons. His ankle be damned, the man will keep on walking even with an arrow or axe buried in his leg.. but I'll support him."

Avis falls in next to the man, puts away his shield and sword and tries to support the man in whatever way he can. His snake trails in under and around him, the tiny beads that are his eyes flickering over their surroundings.

I hate these gamey questions, but would a cure light fix anything in this situation? Or a channel energy? Or is a heal skill check in order?

"He hears deh summons .. let's do this in an orderly fashion? One upfront, one right next to him and the rest behind? Whoever is besides him needs to be strong, so we can push or drag him out of harm's way IF need be, mon."

"Black edifice .. ya Paewen, that name makes sense. It sounds ominous though, can you tell us more about it? Or is it just a rumor you heard and nothing more?"

What are the rules again on using found gear in PFS adventures? The +1 res cloak would be best on the tank/frontliner (Amarthecthel)

"I .. eh .. yes .. okay .. "

Avis scratches his head and looks a little lost. What could a talking sword tell them that would help prepare them for their upcoming nightly trial?
