Bravo~'s page

Thanks for GMing, and thanks everyone for playing! Had a great time with this party.

For record-keeping, I'm checking off Bravo's faction card box that he speaks 7 languages one of which being an elemental one.

Free Action
Bravo drops his Glaive.

Move Action
He pulls out his Gnome Hooked Hammer.

Standard Action
He lets them have it. Targeting orange.
Gnome Hooked Hammer Attack (Power Attack): 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 7 - 1 = 15
Gnome Hooked Hammer Damage (Power Attack) (Hammer Side - Silver): 1d6 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 3 = 7
Bludgeoning, Silver

They are baiting us in. I probably shouldn't follow... at least not until the others have caught up.

Move Action
Bravo skirts the edge of the stuff goes into a tactical position to start attacking the enemies.

Standard Action
He is finally able to make his first attack. Targeting pink with his glaive.
Glaive Attack (Power Attack): 1d20 + 8 - 1 ⇒ (14) + 8 - 1 = 21
Glaive Damage (Power Attack): 1d8 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 3 = 8
Slashing, Magic

Double Move
Bravo moves up, but not too close. He'd rather let them approach than advance for now.

Bravo has reach and Combat Reflexes and can take 3 attacks with AoOs. His AoOs are in the spoiler below.

Double Move
Bravo gets even closer. "I'll get there eventually!"

I double moved Iago.

Use Magic Device (Wand of Longstrider): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Use Magic Device (Wand of Longstrider): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
Use Magic Device (Wand of Longstrider): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Use Magic Device (Wand of Longstrider): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
After some more cursing, Bravo finally gets his wand working.

Double Move
"Time to make the journey over there."
Bravo heads forward along the path with his glaive grasped in both hands.

Is it difficult terrain if you go off the path? Trying to gauge which way is fastest next turn.

"Mentys, get away!"

Standard Action
Bravo continues to try his best to smack the creature, but again fails.
Glaive Attack (Power Attack, Bull's Strength): 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 8 - 1 + 2 = 11
Glaive Damage (Power Attack, Bull's Strength): 1d8 + 3 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 3 + 3 = 14

Miss Chance: 1d100 ⇒ 8

Miss chance messed it up anyway.

"I'm coming Mentys!"

Move Action
Bravo moves up with his glaive towards the one attacking Mentys.

Standard Action
He swipes at the creature.

Miss Chance: 1d100 ⇒ 4

Welp...

Use Magic Device (Wand of Shield): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Bravo tries to do the same and just puts the wand away. "Ugh!"

Bravo starts picking up his asundry weapons, starting with his [i}Wand of Shield[/i] and then his Glaive. He doesn't have time to pick up his Bow but is standing next to it.

Sure, let's try the next tier. Core being "weak" and all. :)

Move Action
Bravo takes the long way around to get to the other side of the creature.

Standard Action
He continues his assault. Targeting Blue/Turquoise
Gnome Hooked Hammer Attack (Power Attack, Bull's Strength, Inspire Courage, Flanked via Allied Offense): 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 7 - 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 = 14
Gnome Hooked Hammer Damage (Power Attack, Bull's Strength, Inspire Courage, Allied Offense) (Hammer Side - Silver): 1d6 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 1 + 1d8 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 3 + 3 + 1 + (3) = 14
Miss Chance If Needed: 1d100 ⇒ 49

I put some of Bravo's equipment that's on the ground. Mostly so I don't forget. There's a lot.

"Now that you're closer..."

Free Action
Bravo drops his bow. Tons of weapons around him now lol...

Move Action
He moves towards the one attacking Lasalareen, taking out his gnome hooked hammer.

Standard Action
He lays it on it. Targeting Blue/Turquoise

Gnome Hooked Hammer Damage (Power Attack) (Hammer Side - Silver, Bull's Strength): 1d6 + 3 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 3 + 3 = 14
+1 to attack and damage if we use the token for inspire.
Miss Chance If Needed: 1d100 ⇒ 49

I suggest Inspire Courage + 1.

Sounds like the darkness is localized then?

5 ft.
Bravo steps out of the mist, and drops his glaive.

Move Action
He takes out his longbow and shoots. Targeting Green
Composite Longbow Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Composite Longbow Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
Cold Iron, Piercing.

Yeah, you did. Can those without Darkvision see? Bravo will take out his Oil of Daylight and use it if we can't. I wasn't sure if it was naturally dark outside or not.

So much for Core being weaker ;)

I find that Core Campaign tends to draw more competent, cohesive, and well-rounded parties. It's quite refreshing actually.

Bravo shakes his head a bit to get the slime off his face. "It's gross but you do what you gotta do." Maybe it'll change my hair color.

Move Action
Bravo heads to the side to get in a defensible position.

Standard Action
He slices at the far enemy.
Glaive Attack (Power Attack, Bull's Strength): 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 8 - 1 + 2 = 23
Glaive Damage (Power Attack, Bull's Strength): 1d8 + 3 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 3 + 3 = 15

Edited to add in Bull's Strength

"I'll behave myself this time."

Move Action
Bravo moves up and pulls out a [i]Wand of Shield[i].

Standard Action
He tries to use it and fails. "Blasted thing."
Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Free Action
He drops the wand to wield his Glaive two-handed again.

Yeah, let's go for Precise Strike everyone! Probably our last time to use it.

Thanks Silgil!

Bravo grunts, "Bah, it worked out just fine. Got banged up and it hurt quite a lot but with the aid of magic it's only temporary anyway. If you'd like, we could defense ourselves before rushing in next time. I've got a wand I can use."

Don't forget Bravo is a gnome. ;)

Bravo isn't good at a diplomatic engagement but wouldn't mind if the party is up for doing that.

"Good job team. I got a bit beat up but it's nothing this wand can't fix."

Just gonna heal up real quick since it sounds like this battle is over.

Wand of Cure Light Wounds (x4): 4d8 + 4 ⇒ (8, 8, 5, 8) + 4 = 33

Standard Action
Bravo steps back and attacks again. "Thanks Lasaraleen. I think we got this"
Glaive Attack (Power Attack): 1d20 + 8 - 1 ⇒ (20) + 8 - 1 = 27
Glaive Damage (Power Attack): 1d8 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 3 = 10

EXTRA DAMAGE - Glaive Damage (Power Attack): 2d8 + 6 + 6 ⇒ (5, 2) + 6 + 6 = 19

Uhh... double 20's. OK then...

"Yeouch!"

Silgil throws a telekinetic punch at pink, but fails to do any damage to the zombie.

Is force damage considered bludgeoning damage? Would it be affected by a zombies DR? Or is this not standard zombie DR?

Telekinetic Fist is bludgeoning damage, not force damage.

"Gah!" Bravo recoils from the hard blows. "They sure do hurt."

5 ft.
Bravo steps away to get back into position.

Standard Action
He swings away with his glaive. Attacking Blue

Assuming there is time to at least get an hour buff out?

Longstrider Wand: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

-------------------------------------------------------------

Double Move Action
Bravo strides up, ready to defend himself with his glaive.

Remember that Bravo has Combat Reflexes and reach, and can take 3 AoOs a round. Glaive stats in his profile. He will power attack just like is in his spoiler on his profile. Might be the first time it matters lol.

5 ft.
Bravo steps to the side for a clearer shot on the orc with red clothes.

Good with leaders. If Bravo's Longstrider wears off he'll try to put it back up.

Double Move
Bravo heads back towards the party.

"You won't get away!"

Move Action

I'm sorry Menthys. Bravo is compelled.

Glaive Attack (Power Attack): 1d20 + 8 - 1 ⇒ (10) + 8 - 1 = 17
Glaive Damage (Power Attack): 1d8 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 + 3 = 13

Thank goodness... just barely missed!

After the attack, Bravo states to Menthys. "Ugh! They're messing with my head. I don't like it."

Move Action
He heads towards the enemy so try to cut areas for him to escape. Remember that Bravo threatens at reach.

Bravo heads up the hill. Just barely to get the guy in reach range...

Glaive Damage (Power Attack): 1d8 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 3 = 8

Am I up now?

Double Move
Bravo begins his trek up the hill.

After much cursing, the gnome finally pulls off the spell, puts his wand back, and heads to the caravan with an angry face.

"I got your back."

Glaive Damage (Power Attack, Prayer): 1d8 + 3 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 3 + 1 = 8

AC is 2 lower this turn.

I am fine with a 12-hour bot. Bravo is very easy to bot. Just attack with the glaive (or with gnome hooked hammer if instructed to use special materials - silver hammer or cold iron pick), and the values are in the spoiler in his profile. He always power attacks, which is already included in them.

Blitterdust. Oh goodness. I just laughed at work. Good one Silgil.

Reminder, if they approach Bravo he has reach and combat reflexes, so he can take 3 AoOs and his attack bonuses/damage for his glaive are in a spoiler in his profile.

"Agreed, the vanguard!"

Bravo will put his armor back up.

Bravo is not good at the other ones.

Bravo will totally do that!

"Thanks for the training, but since I have my armor off..."

He heads over to Mirtgog and tries to to sneak up and stealth around, surprising and showing off his gnomish technique. Then he tries to give tips on doing so.

Stealth: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Bravo will take that suggestion!

Bravo tries to show off his swimming skills without his armor on to Graffa.

Swim: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

Is he making weapons? If so, Bravo can have a few words with him.

Bravo walks up to the forge with a sense of familiarity. "Bukog, I am a weaponsmith straight out of the gnomish sweatshops of Jovvox in the River Kingdoms, and I can show you a few techniques on how to get the best out of your forge." Bravo's techniques tend to focus on efficiency of weapon-producing and how to maximize use of your tools.
Craft (Weapons): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26

Bravo's gnomish senses finally awaken from the long journey, and his propensity for mischief takes over. "Yeah, get em Kavor!" He volunteers the dwarf for him.
