Dyner Inazuma's page

Dyner releases another set of swirling shapes and arrows as she takes in the battle field.

Seeing that everything is out of sight she flits a little closer to the fight and lines up a shot of ice that she pours a little extra focus into. She pauses for a moment to decide on her target before focusing on the shard and main reason these giant skunks are here in the first place.

Ray of frost, amped: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14
Cold or Fire damage: 2d10 ⇒ (8, 6) = 14
Dyner gains half damage dealt as Tmp HP for 1 minute. If a critical hit, -10 to movement speed and double damage.

Sorry for the lack of posts. I got knocked out flat with a bad case of Covid that then bled into the holidays. I'll try staying on top of posts until we finish! Thanks for the bots.

Dyner takes a moment to once again create twisting lines of heat in the air as she releases her psyche.

Realizing she's moved too far from the fight to be much help from where she is, she rushes closer with the help of the kitchen timer in the air as it counts down the last few seconds.

As it starts to ring, she raises her hand with a wand in it and thinks better about it. She instead uses the line of fire to create an oven in the air in front of her and releases a gout of flames at the swarm catching a corner where her colleague is not standing. "Cassimon. It'll get a little hot but don't worry, I (hopefully) won't burn you!"

Burning hands, Unleash Psyche: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (4, 6) + 2 = 12 DC 20 Basic Reflex save

She then targets any living rats near her, drawing heat from them to rebuild her flames.
DC 20 Basic Reflex Save or take Cold damage: 2d4 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4 This is single target and not area of effect.

Dyner gives a caw of surprise at he sudden arrival of the big rats and then the swarm of them. She reaches up and plucks an arrow of time out of the air, and raises it in one hand, with a flick of her wrist she flings the device into the air making a large round circle with 60 tick marks and large numbers counting by fives up from 0. It faintly clicks in the sky as the enemies ever so slightly slow down compared to the four Pathfinders near Dyner. "I've slowed them EVER so slightly. Make sure to make haste." She then flits back and away from the closest rat.

Casting Loose Time's Arrow making a kitchen timer and then moving away from being the closest thing to one of the rats. I'm on my phone so if someone could move Dyner to the other side of the bookcases that would be great!

Dyner calls up a recipe for a bird's nest of noodles, modifying the size and thickness of the strands of sugar and forming it around the apparition. She then tries to further modify the 'recipe' by changing the delicate and dissolvable glucose for steel and titanium.

Occultism, Expert: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17

It sadly takes time for her to make the net and even longer for it to fully transition to a proper metal cage.

Dyner, having exhausted herself with the strain of keeping her psyche unleashed takes a few minutes to sit with her large book of recipes and sort and edit them as she mentally sorts and rearranges her mind. 10 minutes to refocus, going back to 2 focus points.

She then stands up and gives a stretch, her feathers fluffing as she does before she Re settles them and takes another look at the scrolls section. "There has to be other useful scrolls in here!"

Area 7, Scrolls and such, Occultism: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32

WHOOPS! Forgot I was up here!

The apparitions of her psyche floating around her head like recipes in the sky, Dyner recalls a recipe that uses a great deal of green peppercorns from Tian Xia that give a tingling sensation to the tongue. With a modification of near 200 percent extra peppercorns she builds up a shocking flavor profile that literally sends a jolt of electricity at Magenta and Cyan.

DC 20 Basic Reflex Save or take electricity damage: 2d4 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (4, 2) + 4 + 4 = 14

Then with her energy starting to flicker and fade from existance, she sends one last flick of fire at who ever might still be standing.

DC 20 Basic Reflex Save or take Fire damage: 2d4 ⇒ (3, 1) = 4

I completely forgot to include the extra +double spell level to spell damage from Unleash Psyche. Magenta should be missing 4 extra HP.

Dyner takes a moment to settle her feathers and mind as she takes a few deep breathes. After a second, lines of fire start to trace themselves around her head, forming into the words of various recepies on her right as the lines on her left trace outlines of various cooking instruments going through the motions of making a meal. Free action, Unleash Psyche

Feeling empowered, she starts to create a ball of flames in almost the exact same way she made a ball of ice last round, however, this time the small ball seems to be much larger. "Making a double batch of fire cream, just for you!" She then adds kinetic energy to it and flings it straight at the magenta shadow.

Ray of frost, amped: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
Fire damage: 2d10 ⇒ (8, 3) = 11
Dyner gains half damage dealt as Tmp HP for 1 minute. If a critical hit, -10 to movement speed and double damage.

The recipes and instruments around her head imeditately shift from line of fire to ice, all of the ovens and grills turning to ice boxes and magic cold sigils. She sends one of the ice boxes after magenta as well, causing the lines to flip back yet again.

Magenta needs to make DC 20 Basic Reflex Save vs Cold damage: 2d4 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7

Dyner gives a squawk at the sudden bugbear shaped shadow things that pop up near her. She starts to recant a recipe for ice cream with a few modifications to make it especially cold as a freezing ball of cream forms in one claw.

With another modification she adds kinetic energy to the ball and causes it to fly stright into the face of the cyan tinged shadow as she retreats behind the bookcases closer to everyone else, the wand gripped tightly in her claws.

Ray of frost: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17
Cold or Fire damage: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (2, 3) + 4 = 9
If a critical hit, -10 to movement speed as well as double damage

Dyner's eyes light up at the sight of the scrolls and hustles over that way as quickly as she can. "I just got into scrolls and such! I took a correspondence course about them as well. Maybe I can help sort things."

Occultism, Expert: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

A short tengu slowly peeks her beak and eyes around the corner of the door frame before looking inside. Seeing Rain in Clody Day, her slightly anxious movements relax as she almost hops into the room. "Oh good this is the right place! I've heard such scary things from the kitchens about these archives being packed with dangerous things..."

The black corvid humanoid tidies her cloak of bleach white feathers, with a few bright red spots around the shoulders that match the little hoary redpoll that slumbers in a nest the cloak's hood. Inside her cloak is a colorful garment in a recent Absalom style with a few changes for her avian physiology. She has a bandolier hanging from one shoulder with various spices and cooking ingredients in containers, and a small dagger made from a red-colored bone. Hanging from the end of the bandolier is a small binder held closed with a seashell on a string with the word ‘recipes’ written on it. She also has a small scroll case worked with images of cooking supplies hanging from the other shoulder. In one claw she carries a bundle of something nice smelling.

She gives everyone and everything in the room an intrigued look, clearly curious about everything, but definitely trepidacious about some of the scarier looking artifacts. "I think, besides Rain, I haven't had the pleasure of meeting any of you. I'm Dyner Inazuma from north of the Sarkoris Scar and here to learn all I can about cooking! Speaking of which, I swung by the kitchens before coming here and picked up something to eat for everyone!"

She unwraps the bundle and reveals she brought some warm bread, soft cheeses, and cold cuts for everyone to enjoy during the briefing.

"But I can bring more to the group than just cooking, I can cast spells, and while my, uh, 'bird brain' can't hold that many recipes at once, I do have a variety of useful ones on tap and in my binder as well."
This is new for Dyner, but I'm trying out carrying a variety of scrolls of first level utility spells (with a Scroll Case of Simplicity, ) so she can likely pull out a situationally useful spell in exploration mode and save her spell slots (though she's likely to use Amped spells more) for combat.

Dyner has credits for both as well!

Also I finished updating her sheet and leveling her up. She should be good to play (minus a token that I can add when I have access to my computer at home.)

Also Dyner is an Oscillating Wave Psychic which is a complicated bundle of rules. If you haven't read the rules for them, I highly recommend it.

1) Player name: Sedoriku
2) Character name: Dyner Inazuma
3) PFS#-Character#: 108507-2006
4) Character Class & Level: Psychic 4
5) Faction: Verdant Wheel
6) Regular or slow speed for chronicle: Regular
7) Anything else I should know Dyner just recently (the adventure before this one) an evolving Destiny Boon, so I need to rewrok her profile here to change her class and level her up.

I'll try number 5
Society hero pointed: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22

"Much of what we used to receive from Vidrian years ago is of little value to the Iruxi. Ekkeshikaar wants little and has thrived without any assistance from up north for this long. What exactly does Vidrian have to offer the Iruxi that we could possible find useful?"

Dyner cocks her head and gives the speaker a piercing bird gaze. "From what I've seen of the island the native plants are rather limited. There's only one of the common plants used for healing potions. Introducing them would also ruin the delicate balance here and drive out some of the native species. Viridian has the space and biodiversity to grow them readily."

Herbalism Lore: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

===================================================

"How long will Vidrian remain free? Those that ruled there previously could return to try and subjugate them again. Can Vidrian remain independent or will this drag Ekkeshikaar into conflict it neither wants nor needs?"

"The Viridian people have tasted freedom and aren't going to be subjugated again without a fight, and a pure trade agreement wouldn't include your peoples in the conflict."

Society: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23

===================================================

"I have performed auguries and omens. Now is not an auspicious time for Ekkeshikaar to be making new trade deals." Lashweather speaks up. "These omens are serious but this Sable Tribe has helped to show a different interpretation as they will assist in explaining."

Dyner pulls out a simple map of constellations that she sketched last night. "The Thrush shines bright in the sky at the start of night, suggesting we should be welcoming new opportunities with open arms, as the Newlyweds shine bright overhead. I have never seen more beneficial omens for this than these."

Occultism: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

===================================================

"Should trade be resumed, then tariff and taxes would need to be put into place. This cost has risen greatly since the last trade agreement and are likely too steep. Is there a way to find a way around this cost or reduce it?

Beak cocked in a clear sign she has no idea about this, Dyner tries to stay silent.

===================================================

A group against the trade deal speak up in anger. "Ekkeshikaar is dependent upon Droon, a much larger Empire to the South for its resources. This trade deal could upset Droon and worsen relations with them, resulting in worse overall economic conditions for Ekkeshikaar."

Dyner furrows her feathers on her head. "I've never heard of Droon being belligerant about trade agreements nor demand exclusivity before. And you'd now have a choice of who to buy from. If Vridian is more expensive then buy from Doon or vice versa. Additionally, I'm amased you've only relied on Doon until now as they could raise prices tomorrow and you'd be worse off than now. With Viridian you'd have another option."

Dyner tries to dodge around the fly bits of earth and debris. Refelx save, DC17: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

Realizing that being able to hit the air mephit was a pure stroke of luck and that the only one left would be healed by her flaming sphere, Dyner decides to drop it as she instead moves into the space of Qigig's bless and readies a bolt of freezing energy.

Ray of Frost: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 9 + 1 = 23
Cold damage: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (1, 2) + 4 = 7
If a critical hit, -10 to movement speed and double damage

Dyner takes a step back and conjures a small roiling ball of flames ontop of the air mephit with its gusting winds.

"Damn they came in a bit close there, I hope that barrier can hold for a little longer, otherwise we might have some troubles with this ritual!"

<> Step, <>> Cast Flaming Sphere DC 19 Basic reflex save (no damage on a success) vs. 3d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 5) = 9 fire damage. Might not be helpful with the insane Dex these things can sometimes have, but better something than nothing.

Dyner peers about the room with a curious eye, trying to divine why and what is happening in this space. She cocks her head at the odd actions of the iruxi. "Maybe we can help you with these divinations? Maybe make it so you could go to the meeting tomorrow?"

Dyner, still moving slowly, slowly turns and looks at Samna. "You. Sure. That. Blood'll. Work. To. Heal. Them?"

Wait, is Fran still Averting Gaze? If so she might have made that last save!

On another note, after having read the psychic final version, I think I might need to remake Dyner as an Osilating Wave Psychic. It fits what I wanted to do with her so much better and given it's intent on psy amps and focus points has a longer adventuring day than the witch despite having even fewer spells per day. I mean the basic change to Produce Flame making the melee version do a base d6 instead of d4 would be so much better for this fight alone.

Dyner, eyes averted, still catches a glance of the monster.
Fort save, Avert Eyes: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 6 + 2 = 17

Her feathers stiffen up as she started to petrify, but she can still cast spells!

Produce Flame: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27
Fire Damage: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (3, 2) + 4 = 9

Dyner pulls out a small mote of flame from the spellheart on her armor and pushes the mote into the hide of the creature.

Produce Flame: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
Damage: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (2, 2) + 4 = 8

She then diverts her eyes away from the creature, hoping to save herself from the freezing glare of the creature.

Dyner, realizing what is happening to the rest of her group, quickly calls up a spells and then diverts her eyes to the ground. "This thing's eyes look like a problem! Can we blind it or something?"

She draws a quick pattern of water conjuration in the air and then overloads it with power causing a massive wave of water to burst forth and try slamming into the thing.
Hydraulic push: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16
Bludgeoning damage: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 3) = 6
if that misses hero point: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

Dyner raises her beak in surprise at the monster there and the beautiful surroundings. A second later she has a ball of flame in hand and fires it at the thing. "I hope this thing burns well!"

Produce Flame: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
Fire damage: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (1, 2) + 4 = 7

She then takes a second to divert the heat away form the thing and cause ice to climb up the creature, hopefully keeping it in place.

DC 19 Basic Reflex Save or take Cold damage: 2d4 ⇒ (4, 1) = 5
On failed save -5 speed (crit fail -10) until the spell ends (Duration: sustained 1 min)

Dyner takes a look at the book and nods for a moment.
Society: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

"Oooh, Hallit from the Mammoth Realms. Fun but they use way too many idioms to communicate ideas or describe things instead of just saying it straight forward. You'd have to know what the idiom means before you can translate this into a reliable text for others to read."

"Oh and pick up some files that we requested a while back. If they're ready that is!"

"I guess I can't really baost about how long it took me. I was speaking it already by my earliest memories... Mind you that was with the proficiency of a toddler with any languages, though."

I have a single glyph as well for the six needed for everyone to have one.

Also Dyner will probably grab a heal spell scroll to have just in case.

As much as the other tengu in the crew of the ship might suggest otherwise, not all tengu are made for the sea. Dyner is one of them. Her normally bright eyes and bubbly personality all but disappeared on the boat as she was often plucking up pellets of half digested food over the railing instead of anything else. The most telling thing, though, was her lose of appitiate for eating and cooking. It took her a near full day to get back on her feet after the wonderful trip. Once she is back on her feet though, she nearly eats her weight in iruxi foods and tries just about everything she can buy.

Walking into the meeting with a small basket of grilled shellfish, she makes the rounds offering everyone a few of the small shellfish before taking a seat. A briefing and basket of shellfish later, she wipes off the talons on her hands with a cloth and nods. "I can read Hallit and can probably bluster my way through the inner workings of a library if needed, a small 'bribe' of fresh cooked food always helps too! I think I can try remaking a sweet cornmeal pudding I had yesterday if you think that would help!"

Checking in now. I can switch to another PC of Dyner is too high of a level.

Thank-you for running it was a bit touch and go with the bugs but otherwise was enjoyable!

Dyner again rolls the fireball onto pink with a comment of, "Stop trying to kill us and I'll stop with the ball!"

Flaming Sphere: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 6) = 9

She then draws out a bolt of fire from her spellheart and fires it at the woman as well.
Produce Flame: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25
Fire damage: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (1, 4) + 4 = 9

Dyner rolls the ball after pink one last time and then tries to shock the last two standing enemies. "Just stop already!"

Flaming sphere damage: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 2) = 10
Electric Arc: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (1, 1) + 4 = 6
DC 19 Reflex saves for both.

Cooking Lore: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

Dyner moves a few feet closer to the fight as she rolls her flaming sphere into the combat again. Still keeping it on pink as she seems to be the flanking lynch pin right now.
Fire Damage: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 5) = 10 DC 19 Reflex

She then causes some ice to form and cling on the rogue as well.
Clinging Ice, DC 19 Basic Reflex Save or take Cold damage: 2d4 ⇒ (1, 1) = 2 On failed save -5 speed (crit fail -10) until the spell ends (Duration: sustained 1 min)

Dyner sustains her flaming sphere spell, causing it to burn around pink again.
Again DC 19 All or nothing Reflex save versus Fire damage: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 2) = 9

She then locks eyes with the man in blue and the one in red and causes a spark to jolt between the two of them.
Electric Arc: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (2, 4) + 4 = 10 DC 19 Basic Reflex Save

Shoot forgot I was up!
Dyner rolls the fire ball onto the dazzled enemy with a flick of her wrist. "You don't have bugs? Do you? DO YOU?!" She then draws a spell circle in the air and fires a near waterfall like push of water at the blinded one instead.

Hydraulic Push level 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23
Damage: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 1) = 5

Dyner gives a screeching caw of fear and quickly launches into a spell, screaming, "NO! NOT MORE OF THOSE BUGS!" As she does she fires a small ball of fire into the space and causes a full flaming sphere to erupt in the room.

She then moves back a few steps readying to cast another spell if needed to keep those bloodsucking monsters away from her!

◆◆ Cast Flaming Sphere If she happened to randomly hit someone then 3d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 1) = 7 fire damage with a DC 19 Reflex save, ◆ Stride back

Dyner reaches over and spreads a light oil over Jaxon's left fist, and with a magic incantation the oil and fist light up like a torch. "I've got a cantrip!"

Jaxon, you're a rogue, you get a skill increase every level, it's not impossible for you to have expert theivery.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Finally, with no food vendors nearby to distract her, Dyner is able to fully focus on the mission and quickly notes how the boards aren't set up properly and instead fakes made to look like the place is boarded up. "Oh! We'd do this for safehouses in the Crown of the World! If you didn't you'd sometimes find them smashed up by demons looking for people to kill."

Dyner frowns as she realizes she mixed her casting peppers and her cooking peppers up and used the much much hotter casting ones in her soup. With a small squauk of shame, she comments, "Sorry for that, here let me chill some water for you! I promise to label my ingredients better in the future!"

Please do! Dyner is only a back up healer.

Dyner pulls out a block of bullion, some noodles, a nice hunk of chilled meat and some various herbs and gets to cooking a large hearty broth for everyone with her cookware.

Cooking Lore?: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16
If Cooking Lore doesn't work she has the same bonus for herbalism.

She whips up a passable hearty healing broth and starts passing it out to all of the people present.

Dyner pulls another flame from her spellheart and flings it at the last bug.

Produce Flame: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
Fire Damage: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (1, 2) + 4 = 7
Concealment: 1d20 ⇒ 5

She then gets a little distance from the fight.

Dyner raises a claw and starts to sketch a branching magic circle in the air as she adds a sprinkle of Minkai pepper to the casting, giving it some zing as the spell splits and shocks both remaining bugs.

DC 19 Basic Reflex Save or take electricity damage: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (4, 3) + 4 = 11

She then flicks her wrist and the energy around the smaller, greener one turns deadly cold.
DC 19 Basic Reflex Save or take Cold damage: 2d4 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7 On failed save -5 speed (crit fail -10) until the spell ends (Duration: sustained 1 min)

As long as the elemental betrayal is up, it takes 2 extra damage as well. So the burning should be 2d4+2

Damn all of my damaging spells are area of effect or not useful here. Why didn't I prep Schorching ray instead of Flaming Sphere?

Dyner raises a hand and marks Circle with a burning curse that makes any flames burn brighter on them. She then raises the other claw and fires a bolt of fire at the bug.

Fire Bolt: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28
Fire Damage, Elemental Betrayal: 2d4 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (2, 4) + 4 + 2 = 12

Here's hoping it hurts the bloody thing!

Dyner gives a frown as the bugs prove to be even more deadly than expected and raises a claw, drawing a line of burning red from the spellheart on her armor in the air to make the basic spell symbol for fire bolt. She adds a few pepper flakes before directing it at the bug on Samna now.

Fire Bolt, Spellgheart: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27
Fire damage: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (3, 4) + 4 = 11]
Flat Check DC 5: 1d20 ⇒ 20

She then gives a snap and the heat turns to frost and tries to cling to the bug.

DC 19 Basic Reflex Save or take Cold damage: 2d4 ⇒ (2, 4) = 6 On failed save -5 speed (crit fail -10) until the spell ends (Duration: sustained 1 min)
