Ecthelien the Grey's page

Ah crud. Just as I was reading the intro...I was thinking I played this with another PC - but I played this with Ecthelien (5 years ago).

Shoot. I will have to drop I believe as my others are too high level. I am sorry all. Dang it! :(

Unfortunately my other 7th is tied up and my next two closest are 8th. But at 5th level, either tier is fine with me.

Also Interested but lowest is 5th level. Other PC if high tier

boon: 1d20 ⇒ 14

Shoot - I thought I had updated.

Did the RPG link move from the top/campaign section? I only see 'slides' link now.

Disregard - I found it in the first post. :)

scribe : 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9 day job

Glad it wrapped up timely for Daniel too !!!

well done! Also agree very drawing on resources but added to the challenge

” An excellent example of cooperation and collaboration to achieve a goal for the Society. Also a wealth of information and experience for our personal development.“

Ecthelien barely has time to sigh in relief and the mephits arrive.

More of these critters!

Out of damaging spells, he tries his last glitter dust on the far mephit.

DC15 vs blindness

Ecthelien sighs in relief as the jaws of the creature miss him.

This is crude warfare and not something I am fond to repeat any time soon.

He swings again silver mace,IC?: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 + 2 = 14 for dmg,IC: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

And then steps back 5' as the elemental winks out someplace in fear.

Ecthelien had summoned the elemental from the ring after dimensionally sliding is correct (prior combat with statues not these foes)

Ecthelien draws weapon while moving to attack after the hounds bite.

”For what it is worth… “

silver mace: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 2 = 6 for dmg: 1d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 1 = 8

The elemental is essentially out of the fight…not sure if Ectheliens turn is up yet?

”I also have a silver weapon, but I only recall swinging it once before and am happy to hand it to anyone more apt with melee.“

Ecthelien will draw his silver light mace looking for a chance to move in…or hand his weapon to Daniel should he need it.

The howl is most disturbing…

Ecthelien will : 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

” This foul creature is a yeth hound. Silver weapons will avail you best. “
Elemental will : 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (4) + 0 = 4

If the hound moves away from elemental- it tries to hit it unless it flees uggh

AOo? atk: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7 for dmg: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Apparently too terrified and flies away?

Probably moot for the prior combat, but since Constantine is large, it may come up again...

Exception: If a flanker takes up more than 1 square, it gets the flanking bonus if any square it occupies counts for flanking.

I don't know if that works both directions or only for the larger flanker.

Flanking

Ecthelien tries to identify the dog or humanoid....

It would seem our victory over the statues will be shortened by the interruption of these vile creatures.

kn:planes/dungeoneer/arcane: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

Is the elemental around for 2 more rounds or was there any time between?

He will point to the elemental and to the canine for it to attack.

He will then use the one extra use of his arcane pool to use a flame arc on the humanoid...

Flame Arc DC 13) (Su) : 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (5, 2) + 1 = 8

if Constantine is still large, can two of us flank ?

Air elemental tries to flank again

atk: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 2 = 19 for dmg: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

”I will provide what aid I can.“

Moves to aid/flank Constantine with sword (double move) while trying to stay out of bard line of fire

Ecthelien smiles as he feels the surge of arcane power return to him.

Sadly, this will have little effect in this fight, but the healing is much appreciated.

Ecthelien completes the summoning of an air elemental and sends it to attack the remaining statue.

Over there....destroy the statue. he points (he cannot speak the language per se, so hopefully will just attack foes of the party).

Small Air Elemental - charge,flank: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 2 + 2 = 15 for slam: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

or probably not... Round 1 of 4, HP13/13, AC17(-2 chg)

Agreed. Ecthelien used his last arcane pool and almost all spells.

Ecthelien dimensionally slides adjacent to
The inner circle

”I feel arcane energy available here…“

spellcraft : 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29

To activate and summon an air elemental

I can roll its attacks but assume 1 rd summon time per standard spell?

Moved here for 3 semi complex clarifications
1) would we inherently know where we need to stand and that the power is available to us to try
2) if we are not currently adjacent can we move there and still activate the power?
3) if we are in tier 3-4 can use the tier 1-2 summon elemental? Or non-cumulative?

Ecthelien saves his last bit of arcane pool for emergency

”These will require more mundane efforts to crumble fate would have it.“

He steps back, drawing his short bow and fires.

bow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 for dmg : 1d6 ⇒ 1

But the arrow skips off into the distance

kn:arcana : 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

The elf thinks hard but has no idea what kind of statues these are.

Being out of his personal magic missiles, Ecthelien decides to expend one of his last flame arcs on the western statue.

Arcane fire do not fail me now!
Flame Arc DC 13) (Su) : 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (2, 2) + 1 = 5

wow again with the low dmg....

Ecthlien's eyes grow wide as the dino-statues appear just when the circles appear close to completion.

What new menace have we unleashed?

kn:arcane: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

Ecthelien tries to assist

”My research into these anomalies is somewhat limited…“

kn:dungeon : 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

”In fact, I found the entire subject rather boring and spent my time on more academic pursuits.“

lol

Ecthelien falls but his boots minimize damage

cat boots 3hp dmg?

”Very treacherous indeed!“

Ecthelien scans ahead at the approach

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Caution...Impact is imminent!

just as he jumps to grab a pillar.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

Then recalls what book lore of these types of dungeons he can cite from memory.

kn:dungeoneer: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

I can honestly say, I have no recollection of any of this!

Ecthelien will pump a couple more missiles into the bone priest

” This is about the last of my spells“

MM : 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (2, 4) + 2 = 8

He draws a wand hoping he will not need to use it?

Echthelien will ready to cast magic missiles at the bone priest should it advance or attack (to disrupt casting etc)

These look surprisingly similar. And we have learned a bit of their tactics and our own limitations.

As far as I can tell, this has all been the same day without sleep, so Ecthelien is getting very low on magic.

So this last post is valid?

Ecthelien will look down the cliff and decides climbing is too manual and dirty. He has no knowledge about nature.

”This is where the arcane arts can bypass these nasty messy tasks“

He will dimensionally slide to the lower area

Ecthelien carefully moves south and lines up a flame arc on the two opponents.

When blade will not suffice, magic may prove more effective.

Flame Arc DC 13) (Su) : 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (3, 1) + 1 = 5 Bleh!

Ecthelien assumes Daniel will step into flank to attack ( but he himself will draw his longsword and flank otherwise)

”We should take down Themis gargoyle first and quickly.“

The elf does not apparently have a magic weapon either. So he can try to aid…Daniel
aid,flank : 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 + 2 = 11

Ecthelien gladly shares the info he knows about

”the brown in the back is an Earth wysp which has elemental traits, and can burrow… “

kn:local : 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27

”This flapping one is a… “

Ecthelien spots the flying creature on its approach.

kn:arcane, planes or dungeon: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

It would appear we have disturbed the hornets nest.

He will try to catch the flapping creature in a ball of glittering dust, avoiding catching the front rank.

A cloud of golden particles covers everyone and everything in the area, causing creatures to become blinded and visibly outlining invisible.

DC15 WILL vs blindness, recheck end of each creature's turn.

Ecthelien will come out of delay

” We will store this cache of items for distribution later. Is anyone seriously injured or are we ready to press onward? “

The elf will make sure the items are grabbed if not picked up by others.

”I am expending spells at a high rate. I will blast only if the creature survives the onslaught of our durable warriors.“

Delay for other melees first

Ecthelien steps closer and will call forth a pair of force missiles on the priest.

”Too crowded for fire. Let us try a spell. “

A pair of magic missiles dart from his hand.

MM : 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (2, 3) + 2 = 7

switch targets if first falls

Ecthelien shrugs.

I am not as well versed with undead or religious matters in general. Promptly share if these can be hurt by fire or spells, and I will do my utmost to thwart them.

If possible to align both with a flame arc (30' line) then he will do that, but otherwise just blast the closer of the two.

Flame Arc DC 13) (Su) : 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (1, 2) + 1 = 4 Bleh!

Ecthelien will dimensionally slide off to the side of the ice.

reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Ecthelien desperately claws and grabs at the ice as he slides downwards

I am not sure if he is still afraid and or if he could try to dimensionally slide 40’ to a place safely off the ice (move action) ?

Ecthelien dashes away on the ice, slipping as he goes...

reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

NOOOOOOO!

Well, a 2 but that is double my prior roll. :)

Ecthelien watches in horror

will : 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

we have the potions of endure elements too

Ecthelien will leave the climbing to those athletic types first.

”I surmise this is all but academic now.“

He delays to see if the elemental is finished or if he needs to expend a spell.

Ecthelien gasps in pain (pending Aoo?) when he is hit by both claws.

Ecthelien will move to align a fire arc on the elemental.

”We should be in better shape now. “

Flame Arc DC 13) (Su) : 2d6 + 1 ⇒ (5, 1) + 1 = 7

Ecthelien tries to dodge the icy cold breath...

Although I would suspect he still takes 1pt damage?

reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

Ecthelien wonders what the creatures are....but as they appear hostile, he will try to neutralize them first and ask questions later.

Most pesky creatures trying to keep us from the path of enlightenment.

He waves his arms around and calls forth a ball of glittering motes.

The map alignment looks a bit off...I was assuming he could get both into the cloud...but hard to tell.

DC15 Will vs Blindness (resave each round)

kn:planes?: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

The potion will definitely prove most useful if the climate continues these extreme temperatures.
