Rafaelis, disappointed that his ruse to draw the ettin after him and away from everyone else had failed, picks up an alchemical bandolier from a fallen goblin and inspects what he has picked up.

Dark Archive

I am posting a little out of turn because I am traveling today and besides I doubt that whatever the goblin does will affect my actions.

On Rafealis's turn he will attempt a jump check to safely fall the rest of the way down which is I assume something like 10'.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15
Assuming that this is good enough he will move down the ravine saying, "Here I go Jibblets!"
If not, and the fall doesn't knock him out he will stand and do the same but not get as far.

Dark Archive

I'll take the slow climb down leaving him in the middle of the climb down. I'll move him over to s spot that was clear of the threatened area on the map. He'll most likely get whacked next round but hopefully provoke attacks of opportunity to get at the annoying Mage.

Dark Archive

Rafaelis gets a look in his eye, "I have an idea!"

Rafaelis will withdraw from the goblin and go to the rope in such a route as to not provoke an attack of opportunity from the ettin and attempts to fast climb down the rope.

Climb: 1d20 ⇒ 16

suprisingly he succeeds!

Rafaelis moves over to where the goblins with the alchemical bandoliers had fallen.

Dark Archive

I am deeply sorry Art. You are a terrific person and wish you only the best. You are over commited and it is causing you hardship. My apologies, I never want to be a source of anxiety for you. Since this has to end, let us go out big!

Dark Archive

Dude I just saw and commented. There's always going to be a lag time on responses. I am traveling right now so retconning isn't going to happen right now as I am posting by phone. I love you and respect what you are trying to do here but if I have to worry when I bring something up then the game isn't worth the candle for me either and I'll jus bow out. OK?

Dark Archive

There was 7 hp damage from a ray of frost and the forgotten one by round 7. 14 hit points from two strikes by Penelope on round 8. 10 hit points by Brethon on round 9.

I really don't want to bring you down, but I am only mentioning it because this bugger is tough (it's a good scary fight) and this could make a difference once our heavy hitter is out.

Dark Archive

How does the ettin look in terms of condition? The ettin has taken 31 hit points by my count.

Dark Archive

Rafaelis conciders turning out the lights just after Brethon attacks then decides that since this is the last round of them anyway he will he will do his best to aid his companions. "My lights will fail soon my friends. Since Jibblets here cannot see in the dark, we may fall but I trust that our allies who can will wreak veneance. All she has left is a lone little goblin who will die soon or come to its senses and flee this failure of a leader. I intend to go down swinging."

Rafaelis will pull out his masterwork dagger and moves to provide Brethon a flank.

Dark Archive

"Good shot doctor!" cries Rafaelis.

Dark Archive

Rafaelis grumbles,

DC 15 Perception:
"These guys can't even focus their damage on one creature. Now I'm going to have to take the time to try taking one down and someone may die in the meantime."

Assuming that Bellerophon actually did move away from the adept as stated but not performed on the d20 map, Rafaelis will step and shoot at the adept. If it is ruled that Bellerophon has not moveed away from the adept he will instead step toward the Pink Goblin and shoot at that one.

Crossbow: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 2

'Well that sucked."

Dark Archive

Knowledge Nature DC10: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
Knowledge Arcana DC13: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

Rafaelis, calculates quickly in his head, "No Darkvision? No spells yet but perhaps could use a wand. Hmmm... interesting. So if I turn out the lights. The ettin will be blind and everyone else except the goblins, Penelope, and Bear'f.
We have three goblins remaining, and one dog with scent. One goblin is still making its way back, another will be active very soon and another fully active. The dog still has a little time left for recovery. I could time it such that the lights go out just after Brethon makes a swing so that he and the others can withdraw or I can just do it and have escape time for myself as well. Baer'f will have to kill the remaining adept so that it cannot pick that remaining wand and start healing opponents, but that leaves the goblin by boulder in play for a bit longer. Still the advantage Jebline being blind and not taking pot shots at escapees and Penelope having the advantage is very tempting. Without an advantage, the ettin can take out one person with a single blow except perhaps Brethon and Albern. It could crush me, likely resulting in instant death. On the positive side Bear'f could just snipe away until they are all down. Likely one or more of us will be dead, but the majority will live. Perhaps I could bait her with that? We need to thin out the goblins more. Damn, if only I had a Holocaust Cloak!"

Dark Archive

"Good Professor, may I suggest you give that goblin another stick and, then move to allow the archers a clear shot. Assuming you don't finish it that is. How does that sound?"

"Also, what do you recall about the abilities of ettins and giants in general. A little knowledge might go a long way right now."

Dark Archive

perception: 1d20 ⇒ 13

Dark Archive

Rafaelis gives and Jebline a calculating look then reaches into his backpack and pulls out a sac and quickly tosses it at her,"Here! Try catching this you great ugly turd!"

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
Duration: 2d4 ⇒ (3, 4) = 7
DC 15 Reflex Save or be glued in place.
I will use my T-shirt re-roll on the attack
Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Rafaelis gives out an expletive in a Varisian!

"Brethon, you might try hustling along like Albern. An Entangle would be really nice to keep her and the goblins at bay.". He 5' steps out of the way to make room for Brethon.

Dark Archive

Rafaelis takes a free action to move the dancing lights up to the 20' elevation and over to better light the area to the west. He then takes a move action to pull his grappling hook and rope (which he purchased at the inn, 5' steps south (free action), drops the free end of the rope down into the square where Penelope is at (free action) while affixing the hook to a sturdy branch tha is within reach.

"There! That should make it easier for you to quickly ascend.". He glances down at the waking adept and says, . "Will someone be so kind as to finish off that." He points at the awoken goblin adept with his chin.

Dark Archive

in prelude to my action after the goblins, how high up are the branches over the Boulder that Rafaelis is on and how sturdy are they?

Dark Archive

Rafaelis will Stand, 5' step, and cast Ray of Frost at the climbing ettin in an attempt to interfear with its climb.

Ranged touch Attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15
ray of frost damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

"Franufunduluh! Flee! Let us take care of this beast.

Taking damage while making a climb check causes the climber to make another check to keep from falling.

Dark Archive

I forgot to mention the forgotten one poisoned this quarrel too.

Dark Archive

since I am going to be out I'll post my next action now

Rafaelis 5' steps north, dropps prone, aims and fires his crossbow at the Pink Goblin to the north, then reloads

Crossbow: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18

Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 3

He stares agape at actually hitting something with his crossbow and stammers, "I hit one? I hit one!"

Dark Archive

Art. I'll let you roll the 1d4 duration for Cause Fear as I do not trust the software on this site

Dark Archive

Rafealis surveys the scene, "Brethon, we need you to cast entangle further up the ravine as the ettin has broken free. Please be careful as to the placement as a goblin has climbed up atop this boulder and Franufunduluh is trying to hold it off. Albern could you please be so kind as to finish off that rat/dog thing that is troubling Bear'f? I will try to drive off the goblin that is up here."

Rafealis turns and moves towards the goblin, his shadow looming large in the dancing lights, speaking arcane words and gesturing, his shadow lunges out towards the goblin the forgotten one is fighting with claw like fingers.

Cause Fear DC 16 Will

Dark Archive

@Denge: are you sure about the non-max hit points at first level? That doesn't sound right. Check that in a Hero Lab will you because that sounds awefully fragile.

Dark Archive

Penelope gets a +2 natural armor bonus along with her +1 for Dex , gives her a 13 AC without any other modifiers. Mage Armor is +4 AC. +1 for Higher ground. Grand Total = 18 rockin points of AC baby. Yeah Penelope you take that higher ground Gurl!

Dark Archive

I will be incommunicado from Friday Afternoon to Sunday Afternoon.

Dark Archive

Thanks for the clarification on the dogs Art. The Denge Mage Armor reference is on page 13, Dated 28MAR15 at 10:20am loacted at the very bottom of his post. He does a little time travel during that post so it can throw a person off.

Dark Archive

Art: Do the goblin dogs have barding because my dogs only have an AC of 13?

Dark Archive

Color Spray Duration for Red Goblin:

Unconcious, Blind, and Stunned = 2d4 ⇒ (3, 1) = 4
Blind, Stunned = 1d4 ⇒ 1
Stunned = 1

These are the exact same numbers in the same place as with my first set of results, which seems too co-incidental. Grrr!

Dark Archive

Rafaelis clenches his left hand upward in victory , saying "Yes! Knocked two of them out!"

Orange Goblin Dog is Blind from the first Color Spray and is therefore immune to the effects of the second one. Hate being honest.

Dark Archive

Ah! Pay no attention to my foolish prattle then...

Dark Archive

Clearly relieved he says to Franufunduluh, "Good. Buy me some time. Don't put yourself too much at risk."

Rafaelis gazes down upon the beasts below trying to gauge where to place his spell for maximum effect and decides upon the same spot with the two grouped to the east and northeast of his position. Once again he reaches into a small pocket of his clothes and pulls forth a waxed paper packet, cracks the seal, and pours the multi colored sand into his free hand, while guesturing and uttering arcane words, a dazzeling spay of color erupts down upon the filthy goblins!

Color Spray DC 15 will save:

Unconcious, Blind, Stunned for 2d4 ⇒ (3, 1) = 4
Blind, Stunned for 1d4 ⇒ 1
Stunned for 1 round

Dark Archive

Rafaelis glances at Franufunduluh and asks, "Do you have any tricks up your sleeve to delay or drive off that goblin? I need to try and nullify the threat below us." he points to the goblin who just climb up onto the boulder with his chin.

Addressing the party in general, his voice high with excitement, "The good news is that there is a goblin shaman here with a wand of cure light wounds he points at the goblin shaman below it's also the bad news. These ones are tougher and better equiped than their bretheren of yesterday. We need to focus our attacks upon the wounded because they'll take most of down in one on one combat. Bear'f, please start picking off the wounded then the stragglers. Brethon, kill the one threatening Bear'f. Professor, you may just want to heal people, especially, Mr Fevor. Do not let him go fall."

Rafaelios will await a response from the forgotten one.

does the Entangle area cover the top of the boulder since there are tree branches above it?

Dark Archive

If Baer'f is going to take AOO's he might as have gotten them from moving away from the creatures threatening him rather than stayong in one place only to get attacked again.

Dark Archive

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26

Rafaelis sees what the goblin attempted and snorts

Dark Archive

Hey somebody give Derek a nudge. It's his turn.

Dark Archive

I don't know about goblin dogs specifically but you may want to consider handle animal checks for riderless dogs, especially for ones that are wounded.

Dark Archive

Penelope didn't take her AOO btw

Dark Archive

rafaelis's AC is currently 13 due to the ritual from Jack Wereson's book, but 13 still hits.

Dark Archive

Orange Goblin Dog
unconscious, blind, stun: 2d4 ⇒ (1, 3) = 4
blind, stun: 1d4 ⇒ 3
Stun= 1
The dog is out for a total of eight rounds

Dark Archive

FYI- the entire Entangle area is difficult terrain while the effect lasts whether ones saves or not.

Dark Archive

Rafaelis surveys the scene, briefly caught up in the moment, "Surely this is a moment of life and death." he murmers to himself, feeling the moment as a thrilling cusp between worlds, heart pounding, he acts!

Rafaelis moves to the edge of the boulder, too caught up to be bothered with what normally would be a moment of vertigo and intones arcane words, one hand flowing in supple gestures, allowing a small stream of multicolored sand to slip through his fingers, a shocking spray of color radiates down upon the goblins grouped below.

Red, Brown, and Purple Goblins must save.

Color Spray DC 15 Will Save, 15' cone

"Hopefully some buggers will fall down face first and drown in the stream. Franufunduluh, looks like we may have company soon, hefting his loaded crossbow in his other hand." nodding over to where he saw a goblin disappear behind the boulder

If Rafaelis has to go prone to reach the purple goblin, he will. It is all or nothing I'm afraid.

Dark Archive

Art. You moved the goblin on the boulder too far. Climb speed is at 1/4 normal speed unless you take a -5 to the check. The boulder is 15' high and has a DC 15. The goblin had to move to the Boulder and then climb the equivalent of 60'. If it tried to fast climb then it failed the DC by 1 and made no progress. I am going to assume that it is not right next to Rafaelis when performing his action. Actually he will do it in any event.

Dark Archive

Knowledge Checks:
Ettin DC10: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

I can't move the lanterns Art

Dark Archive

Readied actions go off. Dancing Lights are four globes in a 10' radius, 10' off the ground centered on the northern intersection between the pink and purple goblins.

Initiative: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Boo! Going a little slow.

Rafaelis thinks to himself, "Damn it! I wanted to avoid this happening all at once. Ugh the gods be cruel!"

As part of his readied action he will step 5' and go prone atop the boulder.

Dark Archive

Entangle placement looks good to me.

FYI Art- Brethon knows Prestidigitation too and he could follow suit with Rafaelis and disguise himself and the people next to him using survival skill or something.

Dark Archive

Sorry Art. I don't see the green outline.

Dark Archive

Rafaelis wispers, Thank you Franufunduh. Once the Goblins on dogs reach the bottom of the stream by the boulder I will cast dancing lights, Brethon will then cast Entangle so beware. The party is about to commence!. Rafaelis will maintain his readied action.

Dark Archive

@Art: my stealth is actually 18 not 19 not including any pluses from camouflage. Rafaelis will wait until the enemy is near the red square before casting dancing lights.

Dark Archive

Rafaelis will wait until the enemy ears the stream bed then cast Dancing Lights in that area. Unfortunately he doesn't know that the forgotten one is nearby. Once again the range is 110'.

Don't forget that some of our weapons are poisoned by the good graces of the forgotten one.

I just noticed that my response to Albern earlier today didn't post.

Earlier in the day Rafaelis replies to Albern, "Do what you think is right. I simply wanted you to make an informed decision. A united front would be advisable."
