Fafrd the Grey Mouse's page

”Oh, Morgan. I didn’t see you there. Did you know that Rhob sounds grey? He may need to get that looked at. I am not altogether sure he is very healthy. He radiates death.”
Fafrd then just plops back onto the grass, twanging at his bow, tossing arrows everywhere

Agreed! This was an awesome adventure. Well worth the replay! You made it truly challenging!

Fafrd lands on the ground, though oddly he manages to do it upside down. ”This ground feels green. And brown. So many feels. And why do you all taste like that?” babbles the Ulfen, still overwhelmed by the spell.

Doesn’t work like that.

Spend all your Hero Points (minimum 1) to avoid death. You can do this when your dying condition would increase. You lose the dying condition entirely and stabilize with 0 Hit Points. You don't gain the wounded condition or increase its value from losing the dying condition in this way, but if you already had that condition, you don't lose it or decrease its value.

Plus we have healers and medics.

BAIR, you can use my coin to reroll your first attack if you would like,e

Fafrd again launches a pair of arrows at the monarch.

He then hovers, and tries to clear the poison

fort: 1d20 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 14 + 2 = 30

Fafrd sighs as Morgan tries to help him. She tried, but unfortunately the Monarch's magic was too powerful for her.

Fafrd shoots a pair of arrows at the monarch.
+1 Striking frost composite shortbow: 1d20 + 17 - 3 ⇒ (16) + 17 - 3 = 30

He shrugs, where one grazing shot lands, and then attacks again.

piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 1) + 3 = 7 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 3 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 8

He then, again, applies some tinctures to his wounds to help with the poison. auto-success with assurance
poison save DC22: 1d20 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 14 + 2 = 18
Would I expect anything other than that?

Fafrd flies, then launches a pair of arrows at the king in thorns

+1 Striking frost composite shortbow: 1d20 + 17 - 3 ⇒ (4) + 17 - 3 = 18

He then attempts to treat his own poison.
Assurance for a 22, not affected by any penalties or bonuses!

Poison dc22 fort: 1d20 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 14 + 2 = 31

will save for another condition: 1d20 + 15 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 15 - 1 = 26
Whew!

Tasting the green of the forest around him, Fafrd shakes his head, and flies back away from the monarch.

He then Hunts the monarch, and lets fly with a pair of arrows.
+1 Striking frost composite shortbow: 1d20 + 17 - 3 ⇒ (4) + 17 - 3 = 18

piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (2, 4) + 3 = 9 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 4 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 5

He misses twice, with the colors blocking his scent.

will DC25: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21
will DC28: 1d20 + 15 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 15 - 1 = 27

Fafrd is now going to be absolutely useless the rest of the fight. All attacks for 1 minute are concealed, though he ignores that with blind-fight. He is Clumsy 3 for 1 minute, and Stupified 1, plus -10 movement.

Fafrd looks... overwhelmed.

Fafrd hovers in place (Fly action). He then Hunts the Monarch, and then uses a Hunted Shot against him.

These two stack for resistances and weaknesses

fortitude vs DC22 poison: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (2) + 14 = 16 Really, RNG? Don't want me to clear this poison?

First one used..
I defer to someone else to roll the other one.

Fafrd calls in one of the Pathfinder agents that have been waiting to heal the party.

healing to all of us: 5d8 ⇒ (1, 1, 3, 6, 2) = 13

Maybe we should use the healing burst now.
Pretty much everyone seems to be down some, Morgan and Kamil perhaps dangerously so.

dc25 will: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (15) + 15 = 30

Fafrd shakes off the illusion, thankful that he isn’t affected by another affliction.

fort save DC22: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 14 = 15
sigh. Not going to reroll that for just poison

Knowing he cannot survive two poison effects, Fafrd pulls out his potion of fly, gulps it down, and flies up at 45 degree angle to the NW to try and get up above the cloud kill.

Three actions

Poison at end of turn
fort save DC22: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 14 = 15
Hate you RNG

”Well, you don’t see that every day. ”

fort vs DC28: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34

Fafrd’s luck holds out, so far.

Fafrd will Seek for the spellcaster.

If he finds the spellcaster he will Point Out where he is, and then hunt him.

Otherwise, he will hunt #1 and take a hunted shot at them.

reflex dc22: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (3) + 19 = 22

Fafrd manages to avoid both the entangle and the cold attack.

Fafrd starts out by hunting #3. He then fires a pair of cold iron arrows at #3.

Hunted Shot... they stack for resistance and weakness
+1 Striking frost composite shortbow: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (20) + 17 = 37

He then fires a final shot.
+1 Striking composite shortbow,flurry: 1d20 + 17 - 6 ⇒ (19) + 17 - 6 = 30
piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (5, 3) + 3 = 11 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 2 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 1

Fafrd also tried to recall what he knows about the Mariner’s Curse?
Nature: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26

edit. Boon was already used

Fort: 1d20 + 14 - 1 ⇒ (1) + 14 - 1 = 14
Fort: 1d20 + 14 - 1 ⇒ (7) + 14 - 1 = 20
Fort: 1d20 + 14 - 1 ⇒ (11) + 14 - 1 = 24
Fort: 1d20 + 14 - 1 ⇒ (18) + 14 - 1 = 31
Finally.

He then starts setting up to heal a pair of pathfinders, Bair and Makai

treat wounds,assurance for dc20 : 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (3, 2) + 10 = 15

He then uses battle medicine on Makai, hopefully not needing it in combat.
treat wounds,assurance for dc20 : 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (8, 5) + 10 = 23

He then offers his two lesser healing potions should they be needed. Note that you cannot drink a potion while sickened, sorry.

Fafrd sees the dire straits that Bair is in. He hunts #2 and tries to take it down. He uses the help from fellow pathfinders on the second shot.

+1 Striking frost composite shortbow: 1d20 + 17 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 17 - 2 = 20
CI piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 5) + 3 = 12 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 3 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 2

CI piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 5) + 3 = 11 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 4 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 4

He then shoots a third time.
+1 Striking composite shortbow,flurry: 1d20 + 17 - 6 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 17 - 6 - 2 = 18
CI piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (5, 1) + 3 = 9 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 1 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 5

will dc25 vs curse: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (15) + 15 = 30

"I imagine that one has bitten off more than it can chew." Fafrd chuckles, indicating the fisherman that has caught Bair.

He hunts #1, and in one quick action draws his bow and fires a cold iron arrow.

+1 Striking frost composite shortbow: 1d20 + 17 - 1 ⇒ (17) + 17 - 1 = 33
piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (5, 4) + 3 = 12 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 4 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 1

The then fires a pair more of cold iron at #1.

+1 Striking composite shortbow, flurry: 1d20 + 17 - 3 - 1 ⇒ (20) + 17 - 3 - 1 = 33
piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 6) + 3 = 13 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 6 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 7

"Gather round. I can heal two people at once."

looks like only Makai needs healing?
treat wounds, assurance: 12 + 10 = 22
healing: 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (5, 4) + 10 = 19

"Best I can do, but maybe chug an elixir or a potion. We've got plenty."

"Fine"

Fafrd rushes in, his currently less that exciting axe at the ready. He swings the axe at the tree.
+1 silver hatchet, bless: 1d20 + 16 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 16 + 1 = 32
slashing silver axe: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

Fafrd puts away his bow, and looks to the fight. "You all have this. No need for me to waste arrows on their tough bark"

He then pulls out his silver hammer, and gives is a focus. It shifts into a hatchet.

Done

Fafrd takes a step to get a clear shot on #1, hunts it, and then takes a hunted shot at it.

The shots add together for determining resistance and weakness
+1 Striking frost composite shortbow: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (4) + 17 = 21
piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 5) + 3 = 12 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 1 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 4

"They are sending the very trees at us?"

Fafrd tries to recall knowledge, using his research bonus, but to no avail.

Nature: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 12 + 2 = 18

He then hunts #2, and then uses a hunted shot, at range.
+1 Striking frost composite shortbow: 1d20 + 17 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 17 - 2 = 22
piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (2, 5) + 3 = 10 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 1 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 6

piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 4) + 3 = 10 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 4 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 7

Let's kill some baddies!

First, Fafrd attempts to help with brute force.
Athletics: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 22

Then with his knowledge of nature and the planes.
Nature: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25

He is more successful using his brain than his brawn this time.

I vote to continue on skills

Fafrd tries to help with his nimble fingers.
Thievery(E): 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (7) + 19 = 26

”Go, beast. Do not make me destroy you. Live to hunt another day. ”

Nature: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26

Fafrd starts by patching himself up a little bit.
battle medicine with assurance dc20: 10 + 12 = 22
battle medicine, expert, godless healing : 2d8 + 10 + 5 ⇒ (8, 5) + 10 + 5 = 28

Feeling a little more hale, he fires a Hunters shot at mega 2

And finally another shot.
+1 Striking composite shortbow,flurry: 1d20 + 17 - 6 - 1 ⇒ (15) + 17 - 6 - 1 = 25

will save: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (9) + 15 = 24

Frightened 1
"Ouch!"

Fafrd doesn't waste any time talking.
First he drops his bow, and quick draws his rapier.
+1 ghost touch striking cold iron rapier : 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34
piercing: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (3, 5) + 5 = 13 | deadly: 1d8 ⇒ 6

Then he quick draws his hammer.
+1 Striking silver light hammer, flurry: 1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 16 - 2 = 27
bludgeoning: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (5, 2) + 5 = 12

And finally he does a twin takedown with both.

+1 ghost touch striking cold iron rapier , flurry: 1d20 + 17 - 6 ⇒ (2) + 17 - 6 = 13

bludgeoning: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (5, 6) + 5 = 16

Fafrd wonders what got the apes all riled up up, and is a little sorry he is going need to put them down.

He hunts #2, quickdraws and shoots his bow, with regular arrows.
+1 Striking frost composite shortbow: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (5) + 17 = 22
piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (2, 4) + 3 = 9 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 3 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 7

He then takes a hunters shot at it.
+1 Striking composite shortbow, flurry: 1d20 + 17 - 3 ⇒ (6) + 17 - 3 = 20
piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 3) + 3 = 10 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 6 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 7

+1 Striking composite shortbow,flurry: 1d20 + 17 - 6 ⇒ (16) + 17 - 6 = 27
piercing: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 2) + 3 = 8 | cold: 1d6 ⇒ 3 | deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 1

"Well, if that's how you want to do it. I thought i had it all under control?" chuckles Fafrd as Bair is covered with nasty looking thorns.

Fafrd just starts stabbing and swinging. First with a twin-takedown...

+1 ghost touch striking cold iron rapier : 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (19) + 17 = 36
piercing: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (6, 4) + 5 = 15 | deadly: 1d8 ⇒ 1

+1 Striking silver light hammer, flurry: 1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 16 - 2 = 20
bludgeoning: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (4, 2) + 5 = 11

He then stabs again with the rapier, the hammer having let him down.

+1 ghost touch striking cold iron rapier , flurry: 1d20 + 17 - 6 ⇒ (10) + 17 - 6 = 21
piercing: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (6, 1) + 5 = 12 | deadly: 1d8 ⇒ 2

and again.
+1 ghost touch striking cold iron rapier , flurry: 1d20 + 17 - 6 ⇒ (4) + 17 - 6 = 15
piercing: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (5, 6) + 5 = 16 | deadly: 1d8 ⇒ 1

However, only his first strike was effective.

Fafrd hunts prey on #1, quick draws his rapier and strikes!
+1 ghost touch striking cold iron rapier : 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (12) + 17 = 29
piercing: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (4, 5) + 5 = 14 | deadly: 1d8 ⇒ 5

He then does the same with his hammer.
+1 Striking silver light hammer, flurry: 1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 16 - 2 = 24
bludgeoning: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (4, 3) + 5 = 12

”There’s more where that came from ” he growls.

Fort: 1d20 + 14 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 14 + 1 = 22 i am honestly wearing a purple, goblin shirt right now

Fafrd is just about to lose his lunch, when he digs in deep. ’Remember, you’ve crawled through sewers worse than this on a job. You can do this! ‘

"This cannot be what it seems... let me go check it out." whispers Fafrd.

He then sneaks over towards #1 Stealth +14, Perception for traps +17 with trapfinder.

If it looks safe, he will try and rescue the owl.

Fafrd attempts to hide behind cover, and does so!

Stealth: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (16) + 14 = 30

Perception: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (10) + 16 = 26

Fafrd keeps his eyes and nose ready for finding noxious gases.

Fafrd does his best to skirt the undergrowth, and easily does so.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (19) + 14 = 33

Fafrd will immediately bind Morgan's wounds with his healing skills.
Medicine(E) for First Aid: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (19) + 15 = 34

"You stood up to them valiantly, ma'am."

Assuming we don't need battle medicine at this point

works for me

"GAACKKKCKCKCKC" is all that Fafrd can squeak out.

He hunts the one grabbing him, and starts shooting with a hunter's shot and a regular shot. He starts with cold iron arrows, and if that doesn't help, he uses regular arrows.

'Grab me, will you?'

You can only pass one per part. Probably best to boost before passing.

We can boost at any time, just cannot pass?

Someone should try to boost another token.
