Enora 7 pre-gen's page

Also, as soon combat is over, Enora takes out the empty vials and tries to gather some pollen from the etheroot.

We would not want to forget our secondary objective, would we? ;-)

Knowledge (arcana) Take 10 - 2 negative levels: 10 + 15 - 2 = 23

"It could be that the Etheroot was planted as a seedling inside the tapestry - but its ethereal roots lead out to the Transitive Planes surrounding the demiplane..."

Knowledge (religion) - 2 negative levels: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 10 - 2 = 22
Knowledge (planes) - 2 negative levels: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 10 - 2 = 18
Knowledge (nobility) - 2 negative levels: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 10 - 2 = 23
Knowledge (history) - 2 negative levels: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 10 - 2 = 13

@all: Remember the +2 on Diplomacy if you used perfume!

Let's hope Enora can kill the blue one with the scorching rays.
(They don't also have high touch AC, do they? Their penalty applies to touch, too, right?)
If it’s somehow still alive we should probably run...

Enora vanishes again (dimensional slide) and appears nearby, where she casts two scorching rays, both aimed at blue, using the last 2 charges of her staff.

Ranged touch ray 1 + bless + BoF: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 18
Fire damage ray 1: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 5, 5) = 14
CL check ray 1: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28 vs SR 19

Ranged touch ray 2 + bless + BoF: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 6 + 1 + 2 = 24
Fire damage ray 2: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 1, 5) = 16
CL check ray 2: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 vs SR 19

Enora chooses +2 bonus on attack rolls and a +2 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves from BoF.
Also, Enora still got two temporary negative levels - from one hit... o_O

Status Enora: (corrected again)
Temporary Negative Levels: 2
hp 35/35, temp hp 10

@GM Nowruz:
Thank you very much, I'll take the opportunity to retcon.
The dimensional slide does not provoke AoOs, only the rest of the movement (see below).

Dimensional Slide Enora can spend 1 reservoir point during a move or withdraw action to step through a dimensional rift, essentially spending 5 feet of movement to move dimensionally up to 70 feet away. The dimensional movement doesn’t provoke attacks of opportunity, though the rest of the move provokes as normal.

Enora seems to make a 5-foot-step... but instead vanishes completely!
She appears far northeast again, where she runs 10 feet north.
Feeling a bit safer now she casts fireball.

The map is adapted to reflect the changed actions.

Unfortunately, it's only 9 damage for the psychementals each, not 11.
I misread; the additional die I rolled before is not applicable, as Enora still got two temporary negative levels - from one hit... o_O

@GM Nowruz:
Sorry, my bad. Also, no reroll available.
But I've got a question: If you allow, Enora would spend her move action instead of a 5 foot step, using her Dimensional Slide abillity (and cast fireball afterwards).
I just forgot that she can do that - her being a pre-gen and all... *facepalm*
It would most definitely help her escape the psychementals.

Not sure why it is AC 14 for touch.
Enora has AC 21, touch 17 [21], flat-footed 16 (+4 armor [force effect], +1 deflection, +2 Dex, +1 dodge [feat], +1 size, +2 dodge [BoF])
If the force effect of mage armor counts against incorporeal, then the second attack would have missed. Please tell me your ruling.
Also, if that attack missed, the fireball deals an additional 1d6 of fire damage (I rolled it separately, see below).

Will Save 1: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15 :-/
Will Save 2: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (3) + 7 - 1 = 9 :-(

For each negative level a creature has, it takes a cumulative –1 penalty on all ability checks, attack rolls, combat maneuver checks, Combat Maneuver Defense, saving throws, and skill checks. In addition, the creature reduces its current and total hit points by 5 for each negative level it possesses. The creature is also treated as one level lower for the purpose of level-dependent variables (such as spellcasting) for each negative level possessed. Spellcasters do not lose any prepared spells or slots as a result of negative levels. If a creature’s negative levels equal or exceed its total Hit Dice, it dies.

Enora chooses the following from Blessing of Fervor:

"Aaargh! Burn and die, stupid psychementals!"

Enora 5-foot-steps northeast and casts another fireball, using her Arcane Bond ability. (standard action)
The spell should affect Berato (who is still immune) and the psychementals only - see map.

Fire Ball: 5d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 1, 6, 6) = 18 (Reflex save DC 18 for half)
Additional Fire Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5 (only if one of the touch attacks missed Enora)

Once per day while holding her staff, Enora can cast any spell in her spellbook that she is capable of casting. If she doesn’t have her staff, she must make a DC 20 + spell level concentration check to cast a spell or the spell is lost.

Status Enora:

Elliot has the dirty fighter trait, so he does +1 damage against enemies he flanks.

Also, if Elliot chooses to gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls and a +2 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves from BoF, it may not stack with haste but still provide useful. The result of all attack rolls would be higher by 1.

Enora will delay after Berato.

@GM Nowruz: Please reflect this in the Initiative Block. Thanks!

Enora chooses the following from Blessing of Fervor:
- Gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls and a +2 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves.

"Burn, stupid psychementals!"

Enora 5-foot-steps west and casts another fireball, using her staff again. (standard action)
The spell should affect Berato (who is immune) and the psychementals only - see map.

Fire Ball: 8d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 5, 1, 4, 2, 6, 3) = 33 (Reflex save DC 18 for half)

Status Enora:
AC 21, touch 17 [21], flat-footed 16 (+4 armor [force effect], +1 deflection, +2 Dex, +1 dodge, +1 size, +2 dodge [BoF])

Enora’s staff can fire a small bead up to 720 feet away, at which point it bursts into a 20-foot-radius spread of flame (if it passes through a narrow opening before that distance, she must roll a ranged touch attack at a +7 to avoid hitting the wall and detonating early). The fireball deals 8d6 fire damage to all creatures and objects in the area (Reflex save DC 18 for half).

Why is this mission suddenly inactive?

Unfortunately, Berato's hopes will be crushed:

Right now Elliot is wielding a crossbow, so no full attack this round.
And Enora's got no magic missiles at all - did not learn the spell...
But she can cast fireball two more times, and also one scorching ray. Afterwards, there's always acid splash...

Enora will delay after Berato.

"If you insist..."

After learning his plan, Enora carefully aims over Berato's head and casts fireball, using her staff. (standard action)
The spell should affects the psychementals only (see map).

Fire Ball: 8d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 3, 5, 4, 5, 3, 4) = 32 (Reflex save DC 18 for half)

She then moves into the magic circle against evil. (move action)

The fireball deals 8d6 fire damage to all creatures and objects in the area (Reflex save DC 18 for half).

@GM Nowruz:
3) Shouldn't Zafiras AC be 26? Enora cast mage armor on her right before combat...
4) Berato cast bless, so Zafira actually hit AC 21 twice instead of AC 20. Does this change anything?

@all:
Please remember that bless and haste are active!

Enora moves up a bit (move action) and casts haste again, using her Arcane Bond. (standard action)

Just realized that Arcane Bond was not needed for this as Enora is not a wizard but an Arcanist... *facepalm*

@GM Nowruz:
1) Are the psychementals still (or again) 20 ft in the air (=were their attacks ranged touch attacks)?
2) Serenity should not affect Zafira as she has protection from evil, right?

While under the effects of this spell, the target is immune to any new attempts to possess or exercise mental control over the target.

Enora moves up a bit (move action) and casts haste again, using her Arcane Bond. (standard action)

Enora then uses Arcane Barrier (cost: one point of her arcane pool) to gain 10 temporary hp for 7 minutes. (swift action)

+30 ft. enhancement bonus to movement speed, +1 to attack rolls, +1 to Reflex saves, a +1 dodge bonus to AC, and an extra attack at the highest bonus during any full attack.

(I hope the extra AC and the bonus to reflex helps a bit...)

“Oh... well, when you put it like this, Berato, it starts makes sense...”

When Zafira asks Enora to use the wand:

“Of course, of course!”

Enora casts mage armor from the wand on Zafira, herself and any other party member who speaks up.

@GM Nowruz: Thanks for rolling Enora's Aid! :-)

Enora casts detect magic and starts to investigate.

I assume these are two different rolls, so:

Prescience for Knowledge (planes):
first roll: 1d20 ⇒ 7
second roll: 1d20 ⇒ 6

Knowledge (planes): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13
Knowledge (planes): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14

I don't know what I did to you, dice bot... :-( :-( :-(

using both prescience rolls anyway:
Knowledge (planes): 7 + 10 = 17 vs. DC 24 :-/
Knowledge (planes): 6 + 10 = 16 vs. DC 18 :-/

@GM Nowruz: Maybe the first roll can be treated as an Aid Another roll?
It would give Berato a +4 bonus on his roll... (who should cast guidance on himself before studying the phenomena)

"I... I don't understand... it seems I cannot comprehend neither the plants nor these fields...what's happening?"

Enora is completely baffled. After a few seconds she meekly asks:

"Does anyone else have an idea about these things?"

Prescience used: 6/6

"Well, well, well... this did not go exactly according to plan, did it?"

Enora casts detect magic and scans the woman for any clues, magic items, etc.
She then repeats the process for the guard.

"Let's see what we have here, shall we?"

Enora has +15 on Knowledge (arcana) and Spellcraft. She will Take 10 for a total of 25 on any of those checks.
The other PCs are invited to search our opponents with more mundane methods.
Can't be too thorough, right?

***whrr-tschzz-tschzz-tschzz-chk***

~~BOTTING ENORA~~
The halfling arcanist wiggles her fingers and tries to blind the archer!

She casts glitterdust, Will DC 17 on the guard

Thanks for botting me while I was out. I will take over now.

I am recovering from the surgery which went well. A (real life) regeneration spell would have been better, though...

Thanks for botting me! :-)

The scroll it is, then!

Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Enora has no idea what's coming.

I have an unexpected eye-surgery coming up tomorrow and may not be able to post in the next few days. Please bot me accordingly.

I'm just gonna say this once: it's so, so silly when authors create a whole encounter in a different language. OK! we forgot our Common - Tien pocket translation dictionary! we're bad! soooo bad! shame on us! [/rant] :P

Actually, we still have the scroll of tongues the VC gave us - Enora did not have time to learn the spell from it yet. Should she cast it now?

Enora casts detect magic, focussing on the sword first. Afterwards, she will concentrate on the scorched Wayfinder.

Prescience for Spellcraft:
sword: 1d20 ⇒ 20
wayfinder: 1d20 ⇒ 15

Spellcraft (sword): 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (3) + 15 = 18
Spellcraft (wayfinder): 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (7) + 15 = 22

using both prescience rolls:
Spellcraft (sword): 20 + 15 = 35 :-D
Spellcraft (wayfinder): 15 + 15 = 30 :-)

Enora answers Zafira: "If I get some time, I could learn tongues from the scroll the VC gave us. I'll be able to cast it on three people, then."

Prescience used: 4/6

Enora walks around a bit, searching for the cause of the loud sound.

Knowledge (planes) Take 10: 10 + 10 = 20

"Guys, come over here! There's a planar tear to the Dimension of Dreams! It has been repaired, but a small bubble of dream has been permanently sewn into the tapestry. After being trapped underground, this bubble seems to havefloated back to the surface. Shall we enter it?"

Also in phase 4, Enora could do with another aid at craft alchemy (see above)... ;-)

Zafira, we need your help at the bakery!

Action in phase 5:

After cooking eating in the bakery, Enora heads over to the weaver's house.

"Wow, this is high quality stuff - and sooo beautiful!"

Dnora is beaming, exitedly checking out the brokade clothes.

Prescience: 1d20 ⇒ 12 Yay, higher than 10!

Craft (clothing) + circumstance bonus: 1d20 + 5 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 5 = 17 add +2 if there is a Culture Point to earn

using the prescience roll: 12 + 5 + 5 + 2 = 24 :-D

Prescience used: 2/6

A8. WEAVER’S HOUSE

A PC who uses a clothing-specific Craft or Profession skill receives a +5 circumstance bonus on this skill check.

Is this the case for untrained Craft skills as well?

I can allow craft alchemy. :-) But … the DC is higher than 21. :-(

Enora tries to get a grip on the cooking but she is really spending much more time eating!!

Also in phase 4, Enora could do with another aid at craft alchemy (see above)... ;-)

@Elliot and Zafira:
It is not my intent to rush you - but if you are able to, a few more actions would be quite welcome:

~ Actions in phases ~

Berato: 1 / 2 / 3
Elliot: 1
Enora: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4
Zafira: 1

Unfortunately, Enora is not trained in Profession (Cook)... but maybe she could get away with an untrained Craft (Alchemy) check? Alchemy is (very) similar to cooking, and one does not need to be trained to attempt a Craft skill check. Also, Enora will use her prescience ability before attempting the check.

Prescience: 6 times per day, at the beginning of her turn, Enora can roll a d20 and then use that dice result instead of rolling any time until her next turn.

Action in phase 4:

Despite the free meal at the inn, Enora is still hungry. After all, she is a halfling... what did you expect? ;-)
She heads over to the bakery, meeting Berato on the way right as he exits it.

"Any enlightenment on the local cuisine?" she asks him.
I assume he tells her all about the knowledge he gained in the bakery which helps her with her with her checks. (=Aid)

Prescience: 1d20 ⇒ 5 -_-

Craft (Alchemy) + Aid from Berato: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 5 + 2 = 19 add +2 if there is a Culture Point to earn

Prescience used: 1/6

Afterwards, Enora will meet up with the others.
When hearing about a story about ancestors, she pipes up:

"Oh, that sounds interesting! Tell me all about it!"

phase 3: Smithy

This time, Enora will use her Prescience ability before making the check.
Prescience: 1d20 ⇒ 3

Knowledge (history): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11 add +2 if there is a Culture Point to earn

Sigh... -_- The dice bot does not like me, it seems...

Edit: I forgot that I could have used Take 10 on the check and succeed automatically because the DC (20) is known. Would it be possible to retcon or is that considered cheating, @GM Nowruz?

After deciphering the books, Enora will go searching the village. phase 2: THE GROWING SQUALL

Knowledge (planes): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12 add +2 if there is a Culture Point to earn

Sigh... -_- Maybe as Aid Another?

Edit: Forgot completely that Enora has the Prescience ability. I guess it's too late to retcon, isn't it, @GM Nowruz?

Enora accepts the perfume spritz. "Thank you, Zafira!"

She will join Berato at the inn, looking for a room to store her belongings while walking around.
When the library is mentioned: "Oh, a library! Very interesting! May I have look? I promise to be careful!"

Phase 1 action:
Linguistics: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26 Yay, success! :-)

On a successful check, the PCs earn 1 Culture Point.
PCs who can fluently read these books have an easier time understanding Sunsu Godae traditions, gaining a +2 bonus on all skill checks to gain Culture Points.
This bonus increases to +4 for the skill check to earn a Culture Point from the written language of the books themselves.

Questions:
Is the above mentioned bonus applicable to the whole party once Enora shows them the books and the quirks of the language?
And how does the tongues spell help with that?

Then she murmurs to herself: "I need to buy empty vials for the pollen..."

Would it be possible to buy - or borrow - some empty vials for the pollen before we enter the tapestry (and the tongues spells are cast)?

Inside the tapestry:

Enora does not have a wayfinder.
She will put her crossbow into her backpack (if possible) and carry her staff in her left hand, trying to make it look as non-threatening as possible by using it as a walking stick.
When approaching the village, she will greet everyone with a friendly smile.
During any (meaningful) conversation (=before rolling a diplomacy check), Enora will use her Prescience ability.

@ellequoi: I cannot speak for the others or our GM, but I do not think it's too late - we just started.

I hope you get better soon and your injury heals quickly!

Knowledge: History: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30

Next to the dwarf stands a halfling with clear blue eyes and long brown hair, wearing a blue cloak with mystical symbols. She has a charred staff in her left hand and a light crossbow on her back.

"Hi, I'm Enora. I haven't been inside the Hao Jin Tapestry yet, but I know a bit or two about it."

She shares her knowledge about the tapestry. you may open all the spoilers above

Afterwards, she asks the venture captain: "Do you have more information about this purple flower? It certainly sounds very interesting!"

Then she murmurs to herself: "I need to buy empty vials for the pollen..."

Boon?: 1d20 ⇒ 11 No.

Enora is ready for her mission, sheets are updated.

Unexpectedly, I had a few minutes. o_O

Enora looks promising... ;-)

Ezren is reporting for duty! :)

Sheets are updated.
