Cadmuk Brahmet's page

Nice Boons! My Bard, Zhetanadu, once earned the Adopted Weapon Training Boon. He can now use a longbow! It is one of my favorite boons because I could not figure out how to get my bard to use it otherwise.

Thank you, Andrew! I had a blast with this two part adventure!

Thank you, everyone! I had a really fun time playing with all of you!

Andrew, will Cadmuk recover from the poison naturally or will it require spending some money?

Cadmuk keeps his bow drawn and readies an attack to fire an arrow at the troll should it start to move again.

"Is it dead yet? Nicely done my friends!"

Round VII

Cadmuk moves up closer to the troll and using perfect strike fires a single arrow at the fallen fiend with deadly accuracy.

(Inspire Courage, Point Blank Shot and the Troll being prone included in the following rolls).

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 9 + 1 + 1 - 4 = 12
Longbow: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (16) + 9 + 1 + 1 - 4 = 23 Perfect Shot!

Damage: 1d8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (8) - 2 + 1 = 7

Round VI

Cadmuk fires another flury of shots at the remaining goblin.

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 9 + 1 = 19
Damage: 1d8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) - 2 + 1 = 2

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 9 + 1 = 17
Damage: 1d8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (4) - 2 + 1 = 3

"Patience, Cadmuk!" The Vudrani whispers to himself."One shot at a time!"

Round 5

Irori, let my arrows fly true and take down this miserable goblin.

Cadmuk fires a flury of shots and the same goblin he's been attacking.

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 1 = 12
Damage: 1d8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) - 2 + 1 = 5

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 9 + 1 = 29
Damage: 1d8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) - 2 + 1 = 5

OMG! I totally forgot that Inspire Courage was also damage. Yes, I still need to add that. Now Cadmuk has done a few more points of damage. Thanks!

Did you forget the bonus for inspire courage again, Cad?

I remembered the Inspire Courage this time, but the strength penalty for the bow did not exceed the damage roll. So I hit both shots but did practically no damage.

Round IV

Cadmuk fires off another flury of shots at closest goblin.

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 1 = 24
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (2) - 2 = 0

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 9 + 1 = 27
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (3) - 2 = 1

Sadly, with no strength, Cadmuk is becoming practically useless. :-(

I missed the inspire courage. If possible, kindly add +1 to my two attack rolls. I'm not sure if it would make a difference on that first shot.

Round III

Cadmuk takes a five foot step closer and lets loose another flury of shots at the closest goblin.

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (8) - 2 = 6

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (6) - 2 = 4

Round II

Cadmuk let loose another flury of shots at the goblin in front of Jasmine.

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (2) - 2 = 0

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (7) - 2 = 5

However, his arms grow tired pulling back on the bow and he cannot hold the shot long enough to aim well.

Round 1

Cadmuk releases another flury of shots, aiming at pretty looking goblin in front of Jasmine.

(Using point blank shot to get a +1 to hit bonus.)

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 1 = 15
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (2) - 2 = 0

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 1 = 15
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (5) - 2 = 3

"We met goblins at the beginning and now goblins at the end. They must be new recruits for their shadow lodge.Let's take these vile creatures down!"

Cadmuk readies his bow to fire a flury of shots at the first armed attacker stepping out into the hallway.

Readied Attack Rolls

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (1) - 2 = -1

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (8) - 2 = 6

Cadmuk stands with his bow in his hands, ready to knock an arrow if the bluff attempt fails.

Impressive imitation. The Bard's skills do prove to be useful, even if though he is not speaking the truth. I wonder how he does it so convincingly.

"It does surprise me that the shadow lodge would keep such a clean kitchen. I think this is almost nicer than the kitchens back at the lodge in Absalom."

"Let us push on, Thadd."

Wisdom: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

"May I suggest we clear this lodge before we start interrogating? This shadow lodge is rather deadly and I would prefer no surprises."

Cott nudges Cadmuk as he picks up potions from the bodies, glances significantly at Jenny's severely wounded leg, then back at the potions.

"Of course, Cott. Forgive me for not attending to the wounds sooner. This shadow lodge has brought pain and suffering to us all."

Cadmuk pours the potion down Jenny's throat.

"That is a strong potion and should bring healing near immediately."

"Khakil, what's the matter? Did the cat get your tongue? I'm not use to seeing you quite so quiet!"

Cadmuk waves his hand in front of the bard's face.

"He doesn't seem to be responding. I think Khakil is in a worse position than me. Do you think we have anything to help with paralysis?"

I might be able to figure out the properties of these potions by tasting them.

Perception vs. DC 15 + Caster Level: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29
Perception vs. DC 15 + Caster Level: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14
Perception vs. DC 15 + Caster Level: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26
Perception vs. DC 15 + Caster Level: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28
Perception vs. DC 15 + Caster Level: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22

For any of the potions that Cadmuk cannot figure out, he asks the bard.

"Khakil, can you try to identify these potions? If one of them is an antidote for the poison that infects me, I may be able to regain my strength!"

A smile comes across the young monk's face as he feels the oneness with his bow that he is so familiar with.

"Irori, I give you thanks!"

Cadmuk searches the fallen shadow lodge agents and then joins Cott in searching the room.

Perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19

He repeatedly searches.

Perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (10) + 11 = 21

Round III

Cadmuk draws his bow and fires a flury of shots at the one who remains standing.

Irori, give me strength!

Longbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (8) - 2 = 6

Longbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (5) - 2 = 3

Round 2

Cadmuk fires two shots again at the northern of the two enemies with his flury of shots.

I must hit this target!

Longbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (5) - 2 = 3

Relax Cadmuk! As the river flows, I will let this moment be. I am at one.

Longbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (7) - 2 = 5

I am keeping at least 10 feet away from you Khakil! Cadmuk is Silver Crusade and likes his companions to be clean! ;-)

Round 1

Cadmuk, with his bow readied, fires a flury of shots at the northernmost shadow agent standing in the doorway.

Mwk Longbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (1) - 2 = -1

Hopefully a minimum of at least 1 point of damage.

Mwk Longbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (7) - 2 = 5

"Well let's certainly hang on to those papers until we can share them with the decemivrate. I am certain they will be able to decipher their meaning."

"Well, the next question is south door or east. I vote east. Or we could sell out a healer for Cadmuck."

"Let's proceed to the east and get to the heart of this shadow lodge! I may not be able to shoot as well as I once did, but I will try my best. Go ahead, my friends. I am ready."

With the masterwork longbow drawn, Cadmuk gestures for the others to proceed.

"I am happy to try. Paper shouldn't be too hard to lift."

Cadmuk knows Vudrani, Celestial, and Common.

"Even if it does not cure poison, I could still use some healing of my wounds. May I try one of those potions?"

Cure Moderate Wounds: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (3, 1) + 3 = 7

hp: 32/33

"Do you think any of those potions are an antidote to the poison?"

"This is a nice bow. I mean it is not as good as mine, but under these circumstances, this will work perfectly. Thank you. Let's continue onward and I will put up with this wretched poison until we have time to rest and recover at a temple. Thanks again, Cott!"

Cadmuk drinks down the healing potions and rests for a moment to let the healing magic do its work. "Thank you, Cott! I feel much better! I don't think I realized how hurt I was. I am still feeling very weak, but I think I can find the strength to go on. I'm embarrassed to ask this, but does somebody have a bow that I could borrow that is not quite as strong as mine? I just can't seem to find the strength to pull back on the string of my own bow."

hp: 25/33

"Cott, my friend, I have not known you for long, but you seem to be a very able pathfinder. Do you, perchance, have anything that might cure me of this horrible poison? I'm afraid that I am not much use otherwise. I do not want to hold up our mission and I will fight on if needed, but I was hoping you had some knowledge of nature that might help with such things,"

"You've ruined nothing friend...there is more to you than just an arm that pulls a bowstring. But I'll not put your life in jeopardy for the sake of expedience. If we don't have the resources amongst us to restore at least some of your strength I certainly don't mind giving up an hour or two to seek out someone who does."

"You are most kind, my friend. Where do you suggest we go to remove this poison? I feel like I can barely function as it is!"

"I am so sorry! I have ruined this entire mission! I was so certain that we could come in here, surprise the lodge and put an end to their evil ways! Now I can barely lift my bow! I don't know what to do. I am willing to stick it out, but I fear that I may not be of much help."

Cadmuk stows his bow and climbs down the wall and joins his companions.

Climb: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

If he falls, he has slow fall 20ft.

"My dear friends, I am sorry, but I have failed you. I am badly hurt and I have been stung by that hideous scorpion and now its poison seeps through my veins. I am sapped of strength and I can barely pull back on my bow. Do any of you have anything you can give me to battle this poison?"

I finally did get this to post and it did keep my 19 that I rolled earlier! Yeah! No more poison!"

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

Round VI

Fighting against the poison, Cadmuk tries to clear his mind and make another shot using his flury of arrows against the scorpion.

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 8 - 2 + 1 = 27
Damage: 1d8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (8) - 2 + 1 = 7

Confirm Critical: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 8 - 2 + 1 = 9
Damage: 1d8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (8) - 2 + 1 = 7

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 8 - 2 + 1 = 9
Damage: 1d8 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) - 2 + 1 = 5

Barely able to hit the scorpion with his first arrow, he is unable to find the strength to draw back his second arrow.

I swear that the message board is rolling a 19 for Cadmuk's next save.

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

However, it will not actually make my post. It only shows me the preview and does not actually post it.

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

Round V

Cadmuk tries to summon the strength from within and fire another flury of shots at the Scorpion.

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 8 - 2 + 2 = 18
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (7) - 2 = 5

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 8 - 2 + 2 = 16
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (8) - 2 = 6

"Irori, what has happened?! Give the the strength to use my bow!"

Round IV

"Oh dear Irori help me! I can barely pull on this bow."

Cadmuk, in his weakened condition, strains to pull on his composite bow. Still attempting to release a flury of blows, the monk fires at the scorpion giving as much mindful attention that he can muster.

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 8 - 2 + 2 = 16
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (5) - 2 = 3

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 8 - 2 + 2 = 26
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (2) - 2 = 0

Using an extra Ki point for Ki flury

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 8 - 2 + 2 = 16
Damage: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (7) - 2 = 5

Fort Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Fort Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

This battle certainly is not going as well as planned! Is poetic performance the same as inspiring courage?

Round III

As a full round action, Cadmuk withdraws from battle by moving along the wall. He tries very hard to stay out of reach of the scorpions nasty attack.

Acrobatics Check: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

"Irori help me! I've been poisoned and I am weakening!"

"It is not likely that this creature will be coming out! We've committed to this plan, we should follow through with it!"

Fort Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Round II

Cadmuk feels the pain of the scorpion attack, but fights through it and fires a flury of arrows at the scorpion.

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Using Ki Flury, Cadmuk lets fly an extra arrow in his attack.

Longbow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Unfortunately, the arrow misses!

Cadmuk will still draw his bow. He needs a weapon to fight the creature.

Round 1

Cadmuk draws his bow and releases his first arrow at the scorpion.

Longbow: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

"We have a huge scorpion on this side of the wall, but I do not have the rope secure yet!"

Does Cadmuk see anything that he can tie the rope to?

Is the scorpion in the courtyard below, climbing up the wall, or on the wall with Cadmuk?

"Are we at least going to try the front door...or must we always make things difficult?"

"Trust me, my friend. I would rather not risk breaking my neck by climbing the outer wall if I didn't think it would make our lives easier. This is the shadow lodge. We have to beat them at their own game! If you try the front door, you are sure to announce our presence."

Cadmuk takes the silk rope. "This is a very nice rope, Luc. I promise to take good care of it." He proceeds to tie knots into it at easy intervals for climbing. He then ties it around his waist and begins his ascent of the wall in the northwest quadrant of the prison.

Climb: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

Cadmuk comments quietly to Cott. "I would be willing to try and climb over the wall. If you give me a rope, I can tie it around my waist and climb up. Once I secure it, I will signal for the rest of you to climb up. If we tie knots into the rope it should not be too difficult."
