based on our planning, I am going to assume flanking and not enough room for a charge.

bite, flanking, PA: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17
damage: 2d6 + 10 ⇒ (4, 2) + 10 = 16


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Yes, encircle and strike.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Ouch! I hope everything goes well.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran’s bite is B/P/S and his claws are B/S

Bran’s whisper rolls through the water, ”Yes, I am ready.”


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran tenses when the creature is pointed out to him.

He stands watchfully, balanced on all fours, ready to pounce if the creature attacks.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran looks around, occasionally sniffing the air. He gives a low growl of frustration, "Nothing smells right under water."


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran lets out a low growl of warning.

Daniel, I think something might be up with the map?


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Sorry, following the concensus and heading through the finished tunnels.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran leads the way through the finished tunnels, his matted, ragged fur rippling in the water.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Sorry for going AWOL lately.

Work/Life got crazy for a little while.
We had my wife's 40th birthday.
We had a load of other delayed birthday things (here in the UK, lockdown has just been eased).
I was the busiest I have ever been at work: I'm a teacher whose students are all doing end-of-year exams. Due to COVID, the exams were all cancelled and replaced by teacher-assessed-grades. The exam boards did not explain how to gather, evidence and share these grades until very late in the metaphorical day. I have done so much marking and assessment, I've started dreaming about assessment criteria.

I should get back on track with all of my games over the next few days.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran leads the way once more, looking for the pump room.

The ragged hellcat sniffs the air instinctively at times, even though he can smell very little underwater.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Hearing the splashing, Bran stops for a moment, forcing the whole group to pause as he is in the front.
The hellcat’s voice rumbles out, ”We are not fishmen. Perhaps we can drain this place before we risk any more fighting?”


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran tilts his head and turns it to take in the group, "Bachu has one. Give the amulet to Ragnar."

Bran will be looking for an AoMF soon enough, so it's better that it goes where it will remain.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran, understanding the limitations of his hellcat form, prowls the area, watching out for further threats. ”The skum leader was waiting for something, maybe someone. There may be greater threats.”


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran purrs, "Well fought. Let's move quickly."

The big hellcat's eyes settle on Tilorean, "The elves, yes, let's find them."


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran grins and growls out his words, "There you are."


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Forgot my save.

will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

He now cannot cast any spells that require a somatic or material component. Attempts to cast a spell (or spell-like ability) without somatic or material components require a concentration check of 28+(spell level).


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran tries to pin his opponent.
CMB to grapple: 1d20 + 18 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 18 + 5 = 33


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

will save at end of round: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Still blinded, Bran thrashes wildly in the water, trying to hit the skum chief.

Fingers crossed that an 18 hits. I would love to get this skum grappled!


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Having been struck, Bran hopes he knows where the skum is and attacks into that space.

50% miss chance: 1 is a miss; 2 is a hit: 1d2 ⇒ 1
bite attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23
damage: 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (4, 5) + 6 = 15
grab if it hits: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (18) + 18 = 36

50% miss chance: 1 is a miss; 2 is a hit: 1d2 ⇒ 1
claw attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19
damage: 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (1, 4) + 6 = 11
grab if it hits: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (2) + 18 = 20

50% miss chance: 1 is a miss; 2 is a hit: 1d2 ⇒ 2
claw attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18
damage: 2d4 + 6 ⇒ (2, 4) + 6 = 12
grab if it hits: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (7) + 18 = 25


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

The dice are against me!


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran snarls. His jaw distends. His back arches. Limbs stretch unnaturally. His flesh begins to ripple, absorbing clothes and equipment into a new, growing, thickening fur and flesh and claw and maw until there is no longer a tiefling stood before you. In his stead is a hellish tiger, 9ft long, its reddish-orange fur slashed with black and grey.

"Grraaarrr!"

He pads forward into the chamber, feeling the space in front of him with his claws.

will save at end of round: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran blinks and wipes at his eyes, "I can't see!"


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

will: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

“Raaarr!”


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

I don't see how this can end with anything less than the fish-dudes dying or being chased off.

If the goal is to take over upstairs and drown the city then they need to change those plans or be defeated.

But, Bran is currently new to the group and is not very self-confident (slavery is not a great way to develope self-confidence and public-speaking skills) so he will not be driving this action forwards.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran realises that he is holding his breath and tries to relax and let the spell do its work.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

GM, I misread my Light from Darkness ability.

As it has a 5 hour duration, Bran would have activated it during the prayer session with the Milanite priest (as he believes it to be a blessing from Milani).


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran watches carefully, then he activates the wand of touch of the sea, They have enslaved these elves, have they? They should be more afraid.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

That sounds tough. I hope everything goes as well as it can.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

knowledge (nature): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran activates his wand of mage armour then climbs down into the water. He goes head first, hand over hand, and after a few moments his hands change and he is now heading down the ladder claw over claw.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran asks the priest if he will do a reading and say a blessing once they get to the hideout, ”It has been a while since I have heard The Light of Hope read aloud.”


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

It is good to come home to a tidy house: link


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Sorry for not posting much lately.

I am waiting for a new laptop and I broke a finger on Monday, so posting on the phone is difficult as well.

I will get back to proper frequency once the new laptop arrives.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran listens to the fashion talk with some amusement, although he doesn't follow it all, Imagine if they knew that the first time I bought clothes for myself was three weeks ago.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Aah, I missed the racial requirement.

Makes sense.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Ever the Milanite, Bran makes her sign and whispers to the ghost, ”In this at least, be free.”


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran will buy a wand of touch of the sea with 12 charges, if he can. It’s 180gp. Bran and Fulk can both activate it.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Adonara, warpriests (like clerics) do not need to learn spells. You have access to the whole spell list.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

If we get touch of the sea then Bran can go tiger-mode underwater.

However, he will need someone to feed him air crystals if there was an emergency.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Good shout on air crystals.

The spike can wait until we are sure this is a good base. If clearing out the lower level changes things then it might be a waste.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Air Bubble is good but I was hoping for touch of the sea as well to handle the swimming.

Do we have any NPC spellcasters in the rebellion who might help us out?


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

I can't help with the cloak. Identify is a very useful spell sometimes.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran is used to hard physical labour. He begins by removing anything big (statues of evil gods?) and breaking it down. He stacks the junk by the well.
Then he sets about getting rid of junk and anything tainted by the cultists.
After that, he starts scrubbing.

Bran is a homeless escaped slave who has been picking up day-work on building sites to get by. Having somewhere to sleep, a table and chairs for eating, a place to leave things... he appreciates that.

”Can we put a lock on that front door?”

And maybe use an iron spike of safe passage to conceal the entrance?


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran nods, "We should clear away all of the unholy stains in this place. Make it safe and a bit comfortable, if we are thinking of living here."

He inclines his head toward the previous room, "We need to wait until dawn to put this ghost to rest, may as well make good use of the time!"

With the group at full strength and having cleared this floor (and having no concern about threats from below for now), I suggest that we thoroughly search each room (take20) apart from the ghost's room which we leave until after the dawn.

It would be good to make sure we don't miss anything or leave any surprises behind.

Then we need some way to give everyone touch of the sea and some kind of water breathing. Air Crystals give 1 minute of water breathing for 50gp?


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran checks the desk, "Nobody here?"
perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Does anyone need healing? I know Bran's okay.

We just have one room left to check, right? Once everyone has healed, let's do that.


Bran Elberion | Tiefling Shifter 4 Bloodrager 1 | HP 53 | AC 21/17/18 | F10 R7 W5 |Init+2 | Perc+11; darkvision

Bran flails wildly again.
attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16
damage, ghost-touch: 1d6 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12
