Dax Rya's page

I could actually use it inactive if that could just happen. Thanks. :)

Thanks for running! Styfis, you should get a save within 24 hours to prevent those from becoming permanent, or I think you can pay for cheap resto (1 PP per?) to get them removed before then.

Dax offers the oil to El Garrapata instead as there is no use for it on the gnome's kinetic blasts. Perhaps fists would be better served by the oil?

Dax swoops in (somewhat literally) and preempts Garrapata's healing with kinetic healing, so as not to spend resources!

Dax is under constant effect of Slipstream, increasing overland speed by 10 feet as long as not moving uphill, and granting 20' swim speed. Pathing indicated. That goat was further down before my turn.

Dax tries to locate a crusader nearby to assist.
Perception: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (19) + 17 = 36

Unless the goats have reach I triggered no AoO

Dax summons power, then places hands upon El G. "You must retain your vital fluids, blue brother."

If you would accept, I would prefer that you take the burn. It's 1 Nonlethal per Hit Die that doesn't go away until you rest.

Healing: 5d6 + 16 + 1d8 ⇒ (4, 4, 6, 5, 1) + 16 + (1) = 37

After healing, Dax moves so that the cold does not slow El G's movements, but instead impacts the enemy. It also helps set him up for flank if necessary.

Dax smiles. It is a smile that would strike fear into the heart of a weathered mercenary. "This is the part of the day where you die, demon." A blade of water forms in Dax's hand. That is the mechanical aspect, but it is more than simply a blade of water. It is the erosive force of the river cutting through the mountain for centuries. It is the same for this blade, as Dax thrusts it into the Babau. With the thrust, Dax also infuses raw energy, indeed a measure of the gnome's life force, to strike true and deep.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 6 + 3 + 1 = 25
Damage: 5d6 + 10 + 1d8 ⇒ (2, 5, 2, 5, 4) + 10 + (8) = 36 Empowered, x1.5 = 54

Also, if we can get this Babau down, I can heal El G for ~38 for "free" each round.

Dax tries to blast the flying demon out of the air before a wave carries the gnome hastily across the ground toward the fallen Garrapata.

Attack: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (6) + 14 = 20
Damage: 5d6 + 17 + 1d8 ⇒ (2, 6, 4, 5, 2) + 17 + (8) = 44

I'll blast him instead of rushing to dear Big Blue's side then.

Range is touch on my healing.

Dax gathers power briefly then unleashes an extended, empowered water blast at the one not pinned. Range up to 100 feet.

attack: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20
damage: 5d6 + 16 + 1d8 ⇒ (3, 2, 4, 6, 2) + 16 + (5) = 38 57

Dax heals the nearby crusader. Please 5 foot step me.
6d6 + 8 ⇒ (4, 6, 6, 3, 4, 2) + 8 = 33

"Come now, we must not let the water within leave us, that is when death comes." Once the healing takes, Dax looks for a new target and spies the babau.

"As you will." Dax acquiesces, because of course the use of the ability doesn't cost anything to the Pathfinder, and is much easier and faster than a number of other abilities. Dax unfortunately has to spend the entirety of this round simply getting to the next crusader.

Post got ate. :(

Dax moves over to one of the crusaders, offering the same healing options as before.

Dax heals the crusaders! If they are willing, Dax uses Kinetic healer to heal them with ease, as it would provide 6d6+8 healing at the low low cost of one point of burn to the recipient (1 NL / HD), elsewise...

UMD: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 21

Dax pulls out a wand of Cure Light Wounds and activates it.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
Damage: 6d6 + 9 ⇒ (5, 2, 4, 6, 4, 2) + 9 = 32

Dax steps back and fires at green, another blast of cold energy to slow its reactions and hopefully end this brief encounter.

Assent.

I once forgot to select a) bonus languages and b) bonus spells for my high intelligence. We all goof.

"If you do not wish to expend resources in the future, I have healing at my disposal. It does sap your stamina somewhat, but it does not hurt." Read: Kinetic Healer. I heal you for 6d6+8 and you take nonlethal damage equal to your hit dice that can't be healed except by rest.

Dax also examines the vines to try and figure out a way to remove them without hurting big blue any further. Heal: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

Dax moves into a position where the Vrock is in view, and then hurls more water at it. The gnome isn't able to gather energy this time, so it's simply a blast of water. Which doesn't require SR, now that I read things.

Attack: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (13) + 14 = 27
Damage: 5d6 + 1d8 + 17 ⇒ (1, 5, 2, 1, 1) + (8) + 17 = 35

Fort: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29

Dax has no trouble resisting the spore attack, but quickly regroups, taking a step back and summoning water. It pulls itself from the ambient air as Dax charges with energy, before unleashing an extremely powerful Empowered blast of water at the Vrock!

SR: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29
Attack: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (18) + 14 = 32
Damage: 5d6 + 1d8 + 17 ⇒ (1, 1, 3, 2, 2) + (2) + 17 = 28 x1.5 = 42

Dax decides that the subtle method is not the correct one. The gnome shouts, or at least vocalizes loudly with inflection, "Venture Captain Thurl, or whomever has taken him, show yourself! Should I have to find you, I will be cross."

Dax draws forth water and hurls it at the goat-demon, blast after horrible blast.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27 Vs AC, no SR
Damage: 5d6 + 16 + 1d8 ⇒ (4, 6, 2, 4, 3) + 16 + (8) = 43
Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12

The second blast goes wide and splashes mostly ineffectually against a nearby building. Green if he doesn't drop. If he drops, then I instead move to just inside the door and hit Blue.

Dax slides to the west, swiftly, the better to fire another torrent of cold energy at the enemy! "You are not welcome here! Begone, before I become displeased!"

Cold: 6d6 + 8 ⇒ (2, 6, 2, 5, 3, 3) + 8 = 29 DC 17 reflex half. Line should get yellow/orange

I don't need anything, so it's entirely up to the group if we do support. I'd favor more work in Confluence, if there are other encounters.

Perception: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (13) + 17 = 30

The remains leap to Dax's eyes immediately. Perceptions are easy when your eyes are unclouded by prejudice or concern. "They are dead. Something... something slew them without concern. Their bodies are in many pieces. Be concerned and be ready for what comes."

Heal: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23

"These were the Pathfinders." The small head shakes. "Were we too slow, or were they dead to begin with?"

Dax looks around at those assembled. "You truly think this serves our cause? You disappoint. I expected more of Pathfinders. I expected more of humans. You disappoint. We of the blue fight for you, you cower in fear? I have not time to spend on this. Should you find your nerve, you will find us at the front. Should you not... may the god you serve have mercy on you for neither Pharasma nor Abadar will." The gnome's head shakes, and with that at least Dax departs for the next stop, whether the others come with or not.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22

Dax approaches. "We would not all need horses. I do not need a horse, for instance. I could make do with a large enough dog."

Dax steps back and unleashes another torrent of water which covers the opposing creatures in such a volume that one can't help but wonder at where it manages to come from.

Damage: 6d6 + 8 ⇒ (1, 2, 1, 4, 3, 4) + 8 = 23 DC 17 Reflex Half. I may be subject to AoO if it's got reach, also.

The kineticist uses her Constitution modifier on all concentration checks for wild talents. Interesting.

I have several options. I can blast it with cold or water, or I can create water per the cantrip. Would any of these impact it in that fashion? I also have line and cone attacks of water.

Dax tries to use a wand to heal the minor maladies, then goes to drag the unconscious individual from the water. The water bends to the hydromancer's will, as of course it would, and deposits them back onto the dock.

UMD: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (16) + 14 = 30
Heal: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

I still vote Confluence, I don't believe much has been done there and it sounds fun.

I have no idea which is correct, I can't find a proper ruling. You use con for the damage on kinetic blasts, but wis for the DC of blasts which require saves, I.E. Torrent, or my saves would be way higher.

Dax leaps down into the water, which rises up to support the gnome's weight and starts carrying the very small burden across the waves. A hand brushes the surface spray and it hurls a ball of solid water at the ocean-bound foe.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
Damage: 5d6 + 1d8 + 16 ⇒ (1, 1, 4, 1, 2) + (4) + 16 = 29

Dax once again makes a slight retreat, stepping backwards before gathering in energy and unleashing it in a torrent upon their foe.

Cold Damage: 6d6 + 8 ⇒ (2, 6, 5, 2, 3, 3) + 8 = 29 DC 17 Reflex Half.

"Throw down arms and surrender. You do not have to die." The gnome clearly isn't as worried about the opponent however, as lethal cold chills the area and a swirling vortex of snow and ice surround the azure fae-kin.

Huh. So actually Dax exploded and has taken 2 additional burn. I'm close to half dead, that's annoying. You use Wis for casting mod, not Con. I forgot the +Spell Level bit.

Dax takes a step back, and gathers power, though this time not giving nearly enough time to allow a counterattack. Cold energy blasts from outstretched hands, flowing over the opposing archer painfully.

Damage: 6d6 + 8 ⇒ (6, 6, 2, 4, 3, 1) + 8 = 30 DC 17 reflex half.

Concentration: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28

Dax does not lose focus gathering energy, but appears very angry with the creature deigned to attack. Arms thrust forward, and then propelled by water itself, Dax is standing next to the archer whose arrow is still embedded. As water flows up and over the docks and into the crowd, mostly harmlessly, a blade of cold energy floods out over the gnome's hand, striking at the foe. Blade Rush. -2 AC until my next turn.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 Vs. Touch
Damage: 6d6 + 8 ⇒ (1, 5, 5, 6, 4, 3) + 8 = 32

Dax takes up a defensive position in front of the ship, unshouldering the pack, and then begins drawing in power. Move, then standard to gather energy.

Egelsee if there's more otherwise I vote confluence.

Ahem. ELEVEN (Masterwork backpack). Which puts me at a medium load. I don't jump or climb unless someone grabs my slightly over 40 pound pack. It helps that it's basically all I carry aside from clothing. But yes, I carry around most of an alchemy lab. I just now notice they have something called a "portable" alchemist's lab... might have to look into that.

"I could make this, given sufficient time. Perhaps I could help replenish your stores after. We have need of this with a bit more urgency, however." Dax says, and flashes a smile, as well as opening a pack and displaying the contents, nearly a full alchemy lab rests therein.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20 Unless I could use Craft (Alchemy), in which case a further +10

"What else? Coin. Money makes the sun rise and fall, money moves mountains and it is why we are here also." Dax has not dismissed the chill, though the gnome's nature seems at least to have warmed. Putting on a good face for a mark, as it were.

Dax is fine with Egelsee, I know nothing of these districts.

Dax retains an impassive expression, at least outwardly. The gnome's eyes flicker with white, the cold harsh winds of winter swirl in those eyes and though not perhaps so terrifying as the blazing fires of hatred some feel, the cold dispassionate wrath of winter is no less deadly to those it turned its ire upon. "You can rest in the assurance that you will not fall so long as I draw breath, and I have never failed, even when I was left behind atop a mountain and ambushed by a horde of Aspis agents." To Scale the Dragon. "I am the balancing of scales. Abadar's will be done as it ever is, but those who wish harm upon others will find themselves... stopped. It may take glacial pace, but we are not so short-lived."

The small gnome ponders the question before answering. "I have not very much experience with demons. Most of my encounters have been with water, ice, or within Absalom... or on other planes, I have spent much time on other planes. They seem to suit me." A pause for consideration passes. "There was the time I had to strangle a white dragon to death because it was immune to my ice."

There is little in the way of a hint as to whether the tiny gnome is being serious or not, though it certainly seems like a statement rather than a boast. Given the tiny, frankly frail arms one wonders at how it would be possible.

Dax has none of the requisite knowledge, so as not to delay progress.

Stats updated in profile, will get updated in char statblock before I post again.

"I would not deign to call anyone 'slimy' save perhaps a Grippli. I know many Varisians. I do not know whether your friend is an acquaintance. I seldom associate with others, they tend to... find my presence disturbing." It's not a particularly odd concept, since the ambient temperature in the room was approaching if not freezing by this point.

Dax seems entirely comfortable however, dressed in a loose and flowing mithral shirt, which looks more like a dress on the small gnome. Various gear is also carried in a backpack, but there are no visible weapons or other tools close at hand.

Dax smiles, an awkward affair if ever there was one. "Potions and Poultices. I am not the imaginative sort. We are in the Keystone, near the statue of Our Lady of Blessed Waters. We do have more than just potions and poultices, but those are our primary trade." Dax returns the gesture of courtesy with a tilt of the head in acknowledgement.

A gnome, or perhaps some other feybound creature, descends stairs from above. Like El Garrapata, it too is of blue tint though that seems more likely due to the permeating aura of cold that surrounds it than actual pigmentation. Its feet seem to not touch the ground, held ever so slightly above it by water that flows continually before the footfalls of the small creature, whose impassive countenance is only ever so slightly breached by the sight of El Garrapata. My, that is a tall one. The assembled group appears nice enough, so Dax decides introductions are in order. Words flow, like the gentle water through shallow rapids. "Greetings all. I am Dax Rya, I command the forces of elemental water and ice." Dax seems to think that is enough for the time being, then reconsiders. "I also operate a potion and poultice shop in Magnimar, do consider it should your need arise while therein."

I did run a module and level up, I'll have those updated stats before we begin.
