Fatima steps to the qlippoth and adds her own blade to the melee.

Fatima lashes out with spell and sword at the yellow-clad mystic.

+2's from BoF. I think I forgot to use my Arcane Pool before, so doing that now for +2 agile keen weapon. Piranha Strike.

Attack: 1d20 + 16 + 2 - 2 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 16 + 2 - 2 - 2 + 1 = 24
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 4 = 14

Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 4 = 15

Oops, I forgot I had questions to ask. And I would assume Fatima would share the information.

How about resistances, and special weaknesses?

Planes to ID TWPF?: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30

Fatima casts a spell while the group is together, then rushes to disrupt the ritual.

Casting Haste on everyone. Taking the +2's from BoF. Move to engage with the cultists.

Fatima hustles toward the enemies.

Double move

Init: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21

Fatima approaches the chieftain, but takes the time to draw a wand and cast a protective spell on the way.

Move, wand of Shield.

Once the journey gets started, Fatima uses her wands of Mage Armor and Longstrider.

UMD (MA): 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (5) + 16 = 21

UMD (LS): 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (1) + 16 = 17

[ooc]Crap. No Longstrider for me! Anyone else who wants to use and can is free to, though.

With 5 charisma, Fatima is not keen on confrontation. She'll follow the orders, even though she's uncomfortable around Chelaxians.

Arcana: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 15
Planes: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14

Arcana: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (16) + 13 = 29
Planes: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19

"It's likely we wouldn't have time to save the temple before the ritual destroyed it anyway."

"We were told to follow the Hellknight's orders. If they command, we should go with them. If they release us from their service, I would prefer to go our separate ways."

Do we have any long-term buffs we can give them before they go?

Fatima quietly cleans her blade. She whispers to Alistina, "Do you think we can trust the Hellknights to honor the orcs' surrender?"

Fatima continues her onslaught.

Piranha Strike, Arcane Strike, Spell Combat with Arcane Mark. Extra attack from BoF

Attack: 1d20 + 16 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 16 - 2 - 2 = 15
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 16

Attack: 1d20 + 11 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 11 - 2 - 2 = 11
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 20

Fatima lashes out against the orc next to her.

Attack: 1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 16 - 2 = 28
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 17
Nonlethal Cold: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Blessing of Fervor: 1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 16 - 2 = 20
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 19
Nonlethal Cold: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Attack: 1d20 + 11 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 11 - 2 = 23
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 15
Nonlethal Cold: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Reflex: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (13) + 14 = 27

Fatima steps up and strikes twice at the orc battling Alistina.

Attack: 1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 16 - 2 = 21
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 16
Nonlethal Cold: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Blessing of Fervor: 1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 16 - 2 = 16
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 20
Nonlethal Cold: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Attack: 1d20 + 11 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 11 - 2 = 20
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 18
Nonlethal Cold: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Suuuuuuuuuuck!

Fatima casts a spell, and advances to the nearest orc, attempting to deliver the spell through her blade.

Casting Frostbite. Arcane Strike and Piranha Strike

Attack: 1d20 + 16 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 16 - 2 = 16
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 18
Non-lethal cold: 1d6 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

OK, nevermind...

OK, I'm confused. The orc next to me has an X over him. Is he down?

Fatima advances forward, drawing a wand as she goes, and uses magic to enhance her defenses and her weapon.

Wand of Shield. Arcane Pool to get a +2 Keen Agile Wakizashi.

Init: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 19

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

Fatima explains the magic of the mask to her allies, and offers to let one of them use it if they choose.

"It seems someone is summoning qlippoths here. Very bad news. We should find the fell arcanists behind this and deal with them before it is too late."

-Posted with Wayfinder

Fatima examines the runes, trying to determine what magical effects it was intended to produce.

Arcana: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26

Oops, yeah, I just forgot to change the numbers. I had 3 crit threats because it's a Keen Wakizashi.

Fatima continues to strike at the chimera in front of her. Spell Combat with Arcane Mark (Casting defensively). Arcane Strike, Piranha Strike. Taking the extra attack from BoF.

Concentration: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27 vs. DC 15
Arcane Mark: 1d20 + 16 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 16 - 2 - 2 = 28
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 17

Attack 2: 1d20 + 16 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 16 - 2 - 2 = 27
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 15

BoF Attack: 1d20 + 16 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 16 - 2 - 2 = 29
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 16

Iterative: 1d20 + 11 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 11 - 2 - 2 = 18
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 15

I presume the ground is all difficult terrain? And do we need to keep making Reflex saves against the mud?

Fatima casts a spell to move quickly through the mud...

Not casting defensively, and risking the AoO. She will attempt to parry it, however.

Parry: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (6) + 16 = 22

Well, nevermind that. If the AoO hits my 29 AC and breaks concentration, ignore this full attack and she simply moves adjacent.

...and interposes herself between the eastern creature and the Hellknights. Her wakizashi lashes out quickly in a trio of strikes.

Bladed Dash to move adjacent, and full attack with spell combat. Arcane Strike and Piranha Strike.

Bladed Dash: 1d20 + 16 - 2 - 2 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 16 - 2 - 2 + 5 = 20
Damage: 1d6 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19

Second Attack: 1d20 + 16 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 16 - 2 - 2 = 19
Damage: 1d6 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18

Iterative: 1d20 + 11 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 11 - 2 - 2 = 8
Damage: 1d6 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19

EDIT: Blessing of Fervor attack: 1d20 + 16 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 16 - 2 - 2 = 18
Damage: 1d6 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19

Suuuuuuuuuuuuck!

Init: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (16) + 15 = 31

I would have cast Shield from my wand and used Arcane Pool to boost my wakizashi to +2 Agile Keen in the opening round.

Mud Reflex: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29

Breath Weapon Reflex: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (13) + 14 = 27

Are we back to the top of initiative now?

Haha, you have more than 4 times her Charisma, so she's certainly not going to stand up to you!

Fatima avoids Tavarius's gaze, but sidles up to Ruprecht to make a suggestion. "Could we perhaps trigger the rockslide safely, then attempt to climb?"

Fatima likewise has a familiar, but it will stay tucked away for now.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Fatima is shy, and sits by herself during the breaks unless approached. She does, however, try to catch glimpses under the Hellknight's helmets to see if there are any other Tieflings in the group, having heard they are not well-regarded in Cheliax.

Survival: 1d20 ⇒ 18

"From what I know of weather, which I admit is rudimentary and may be incorrect, I believe that we will see a storm within the next 24 hours. Are there places to take shelter along the way?"

I assume the map is of Gozreh's Fork, after 2 days of marching. Do we have any in-character reason to suspect danger here in particular?

Fatima bows respectfully. "What duties do you have for us?"

Fatima mumbles something about being ready, but makes little effort to be heard over the argument.

AoO: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (2) + 14 = 16
Damage: 1d6 + 8 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 2 + 4 = 18

A tiefling woman in wizard's robes shuffles into the room, mutters a barely-audible greeting, and takes a chair in the corner. She carries only a single, small blade.

I think this is the current status:

Tier 8-9
Tavarius (cleric 9)
Fatima (magus 8)
Ruprecht (alchemist 8)
GM Grog (fighter 9)
Jason (cleric 9)

So we have:
-Negative-channeling cleric
-Casting-focused cleric
-Melee magus (with some face skills)
-Fighter (melee?)
-Alchemist (bombs, traps)

I'm fine with a sixth player.

Interested. Tentatively posting with my magus, but I'm flexible depending on party composition. (Is there much of a social component to this one, or is it a straight dungeon delve?)

Prefer high tier, but again, I'm flexible.

Thanks, it was fun!

"It was an honor to fight beside you, Madam Zadrian."

Phew!

So, I heard there was a way to massively screw this up and TPK yourself with the weapon. Is that true?

Sounds good. Personally, I'm worried about how my Tiefling heritage will affect the machine, so I'll abstain from donating my life essence.

If this thing incinerates me for being a Tiefling... Iomedae's gonna hear about this!

-Posted with Wayfinder

Fatima tries to finagle some more juice out of the machine.

UMD: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (14) + 16 = 30

Do we want to put anymore charges in?

-Posted with Wayfinder

The Mesmerist's stare says it can't be avoided like a gaze attack, and you can even perform it while blinded, which suggests you don't need to make eye contact. My reading is that you could still stare at the demon while avoiding its eyes.

Fatima focuses her attentions on her allies below to avoid the creature's gaze.

Avert Eyes (low is good): 1d2 ⇒ 1

"Sihir, Herodotus! Toss me your crystals!"

Fatima readies an action to load a crystal into the panel when one is tossed to her.

Efffff...

"Sihir, distract the demon while we arm the weapon!"

Do we need to have all the crystals in the weapon to arm it? Would we know one way or another?

Fatima keeps her eyes closed, and attacks the wrecker demon.

At a work conference for the next 6 days. Should still be able to post on phone, but map access will be spotty.

With her lizard aspect, Fatima scampers up the wall and into the control room. Double move.

Haha, let's hope he goes for it! Can you make them look plumper and juicier?
