General Dissa Ray.'s page

Life is very busy again. Could you please bot Dissa as needed until after Turkey Day?

Dissa takes a 5 foot step and doubke stabs through the gap beyond Kontha.

Bleep: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 11 + 2 = 18
Bleep Damage?: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (7, 5) + 16 = 28

Bloop: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 2 = 11

Bot?

Will DC15: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

"Ha ha ha ha!" laughs the large man. "You'll have to do better than that!"

Look & Listen: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

Dissa pokes his nose, and weapon, further into the room to observe all corners.

"I think Pharasma knows exactly what to do with the souls of this lot. Torturing citizens, driving the less fortunate delirious in dreams, and inciting murderous mobs are indicators of derision beyond redemption." Dissa pauses as he contemplates his own harsh words.

"Or, I could be way off... I guess..." A shadow casts over his brows and eyes as the splintered door fragments fall from the jade studded pauldrons of his O-Yoroi armor. "Mortals never know, you know?"

Dissa strides swiftly over to where Marina is indicating, and applies his "universal lock pick" with aggressive intent.

"No need to debate. I think we know what we're here to do; root out evil and destroy the cult plaguing this city. I see no advantage to waiting, and no desire to be merciful." The big man seems committed to a roughshod warpath against the inhabitants of this den of evil.

Dissa emits a low growl I stole Kontha's line!

So the rolls should be a 28 and 26

30 and 28. You are only giving yourself +2 for flanking, and it should be +4 due to Outflank.

Kontha bites

1d20+7+2-1 flank and power attack
1d8+4+2

bite 2
1d20+7+2-1
1d8+4+2

FYI the Outflank feat improves your flanking bonus to +4. Paired Opportunists gives you another +4 to AoO when adjacent to another with the teamwork feat (i.e. everyone). Enjoy the +6 adjustment!

The Kyton is dropped to the ground, kicked and slashed, leaving it bruised and bleeding but still raring to go. It stands, believing enough in its defenses to lash out again. AoO from everyone within striking distance. AC 17

Additionally, everyone who is adjacent to another PC that gets an AoO, will get a second AoO due to Paired Opportunists. That includes Dulomak and Dissa as adjacent, and Kontha and Marina as adjacent. The stand provokes an AoO (condition 1) and the AoO from an adjacent ally provokes an AoO (condition 2)

Double Chaboof: 1d20 + 9 + 4 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 9 + 4 + 4 + 2 = 30
Double Chaboof Splorp: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

Chaboof: 1d20 + 9 + 4 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 9 + 4 + 4 + 2 = 35
Chaboof Splorp: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

Dissa takes a move action to activate his third se of Martial Flexibility, and learns Quick Draw again. As a swift action he whips his Kukri from the sheath, and slashes at the Kyton.

Swift strike: 1d20 + 9 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 4 + 2 = 29
Kukri Damage: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

Dissa takes a few swipes at Red, as blue is too close for the blade of his polearm.

Thrust of Justice: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 11 + 2 = 22
Justice Damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (1, 7) + 16 = 24

Thrust of Benevolence: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 6 + 2 = 24
Thrust of Benevolence Confirmed?: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 6 + 2 = 26

Critical Benevolence: 4d8 + 32 ⇒ (7, 6, 3, 5) + 32 = 53

"Can I get a little help with this close one?" asks the towering man in Jade Green. His weapon clearing over his melee assailant.

Dissa steps in to see what the glass domes seem to contain, or perhaps did contain, while also presenting himself as a viable target for the miscreant inhabitants.

"Cyrene, my apologies. I was deeply distracted." Whispers the warrior as he glides down the hallway.

Congratulations on the baby! I should be OK to check in again. Life got busy here (although not first baby busy!)

Hey folks!

I have five kids in five different schools. I need to take a break for a while.

Please bot Dissa if necessary.

Flagbearer at 9th blends nicely with Banner of the Ancient Kings to double the flag bonus and accelerate bardic performance to a swift action.

How many classes are you planning on taking?

Just three. My goal was to be a teamwork feat dispensary:

2) Swashbuckler has a panache version of tactician through panache, which is refillable (unlike tactician). It shares a teamwork feat with allies as a Standard Action. Check.

3) Brawler gives two methods through the Exemplar archetype.
-- At 3rd it can do Bardic Performance. Battle song of the Peoples Revolt allows a teamwork feat instead of the traditional inspire courage. This can accelerate from a Standard Action to a move then a swift like bardic performance.
-- At 5th it gets Field Instruction, which grants another teamwork feat to allies. Combined with Martial Flexibility, it can become almost any teamwork feat in a single round.

That adds up to Dissa dispensing 4 teamwork feats, potentially in a single round.

I will probably stick with Brawler the rest of the way, but one more level of Paladin really rounds out a lot of features.

Sorry about your cat. That's a bummer, and we can sympathize.

I hope you can catch up on sleep this weekend.

"Tsukiyo, the Prince of the Moon, has already laid claim to my sleep. I have lived a hundred lifetimes in my dreams, and never once did your god reach me. Enjoy your trip to the Boneyard, heathen!" Dissa calls to the cultists as he slashes down red.

Snicker: 1d20 + 11 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 11 + 2 + 4 = 21
Damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (7, 3) + 16 = 26

Snack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 2 + 4 = 19
Damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (6, 7) + 16 = 29

If you're thinking rapier EK, the swashbuckler (and the archetype inspiring blade) is very optimal.

Dissa had also planned on taking Flagbearer around 8 or 9 to pair with his bardic performance combat feature from Exempler Brawler.

Dissa moves forward and pokes blue.

Poke!: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 11 + 2 = 32
Confirm?: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 11 + 2 = 22

Poke of Doom: 4d8 + 32 ⇒ (4, 7, 4, 2) + 32 = 49

"Thanks, Marina, for pointing out the best target. Also, my apologies for showering you with viscera. You did recommend they surrender, but they seem like cultists or something." Both the daunting jade o-yoroi mask nd the voice emanating from within seem very calm in contrast to the fatal stroke delivered by the wearer.

"Great thinking, Marina!"

Dissa starts squeezing up the steps, moving at half speed to the top.

AoO? This group was built for the AoO! Thanks Fez :-)

"She warned you. Even blinded and tripped you're making pretty bad decisions..."

Nonlethal AoO with Flank: 1d20 + 11 + 1 + 4 + 4 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 11 + 1 + 4 + 4 + 2 - 4 = 23
Nonlethal AoO Damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (4, 2) + 16 = 22

3d8+7 if confirmed does the +7 triple as well?

It should triple, adjusting your damage to 40. Nice work!

Dissa starts with the unhindered red mook, and sweeps his way through the blinded in a massive arc of destruction.

Red Flat Footed: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 11 + 2 = 15

Red Damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (2, 5) + 16 = 23

Red Iterative: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 2 = 12

Red Damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (2, 3) + 16 = 21

Red Haste Dead?: 1d20 + 11 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 11 + 2 = 19

Red Damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (2, 2) + 16 = 20

"These guys must be pretty tough. I could barely hit this guy in the corner!"

Dissa spends a move action to gain Throw Anything with his Martial Flexibility. He then slings his Fauchard into it's holster, and puts a spider corpse in each hand.

"Actually, I'm totally fine. I got hit with some spider web juice, but all I had to do was walk out of it. I would prefer to hurry through the rest of the complex. I have limited use of some of my supernatural abilities, and I want to take advantage of them!"

The big man is on the hunt.

"If you want to help me, grab as many of those spider corpses as you can. I'm ready to give these beasts a taste of their own medicine!"

With that said, he presses into G12. He speaks more softly on the walk, "Don't worry, I won't let any harm befall your beautiful countenance. I would die to protect you, and nothing in here can kill me."

Realizing he is out of darts, Dissa takes a move action to activate his Martial Flexibility. He now has the Quick Draw feat for the next minute.

"How about a taste of your own medicine? I have something for you."

The paladin picks up a spider corpse as a free action. He flings the corpse as mightily as possible at the Ettercap.

Fire the Spider Cannon!: 1d20 + 7 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 2 - 4 = 11

Unlikely Spider Damage...: 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Dissa tries to drag his way out of the gunk, while drawing a dart.

Burst!: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25

The big man moves to a direct line of sight, and chucks a dart at the flying Ettercap.

Dart!: 1d20 + 7 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (17) + 7 + 2 - 1 = 25

Rocket Puncture: 1d4 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

"I knew you couldn't resist me forever. I am too delicious!" Shouts the addled avenger.

AoO 1: 1d20 + 11 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 11 + 4 + 1 = 21
Damage AoO 1: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (3, 4) + 16 = 23

AoO 2: 1d20 + 11 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 11 + 4 + 1 = 20
Damage AoO 2: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (6, 5) + 16 = 27

AoO 3: 1d20 + 11 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 11 + 4 + 1 = 17 I don't know if I get a crack at chittersnap as well...
Damage AoO 3: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (1, 5) + 16 = 22

"Well, kudos on the tactics, spiders. However, I still plan to eviscerate you all. Kontha will have her vengeance, and her half-orc will help her." Dissa is genuinely impressed by the spiders use of a trap of such scale.

Spider Slash: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Spider slash iterative: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

Iterative confirm?: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Regular damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (3, 6) + 16 = 25

Go with what Dulomak and Kontha would do. They seem like the "surge ahead" types.

Dissa moves into the room and takes a swing at the closest spider. "Come to me, and you'll find my poison, vermin!" The foolish man tough-talks a few bugs. His hope is to attract them and garner Attacks of Opportunity.

Spider Splat: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28

Confirm?: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (10) + 11 = 21

Splat Damage: 4d8 + 32 ⇒ (2, 8, 4, 6) + 32 = 52

"This looks like a clean up effort for the Magistrate. I am glad we have found the source. Let's keep a sample for our dream speaker friend. She may be able to help us better combat our future opponents."

Dissa is ready to press on to the next combatants.

I didn't realize we still had some Haste. What wonderful news!

Dissa targets the spellcaster as his primary opponent, especially with the area attacks. If the spellcaster should drop, he'll shift focus to a threatened foe to gain Outflank benefits.

Swift Slash: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 11 + 1 = 14
Swift Slash Damage?: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (7, 1) + 16 = 24

Quick Cut: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 6 + 1 = 26 Threat!
Quick Cut Confirm?: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 1 = 27
Quick Cut Damage: 4d8 + 32 ⇒ (5, 2, 3, 7) + 32 = 49

Rushed Thrust: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 11 + 1 = 14
Rushed Thrust Damage?: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (7, 7) + 16 = 30

That would explain the resurgence.

Good luck, and enjoy your break.

Fort DC 12: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (16) + 13 = 29

Dissa takes two quick swipes at the cultists, trying to figure a way out of the fog.

Thrust: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 12

Sweep: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (1, 2) + 16 = 19

"I'm not sure how honorable these combatants are, Marina. Feel free to punch their masks off with some vigor! I can't seem to strike as soundly as usual."

Boo!

I'm sorry to hear that, but hopefully you don't have too many lectures in mid-July.

Dissa makes a mental note to expend a charge of Cure Light Wounds and a charge of Lesser Restoration on each of the strength drained but living commoners. Hopefully they will be stable enough to securt by the time the party clears out.

"I doubt anyone will be surprised by our presence now. I say the faster we finish, the easier the battles. I don't want to give anyone the time to prepare." He calls to his friends.

He presses toward the next door with purpose.

"Uh, OK. I guess I hit the dream with my imagination stick?" Taking Cyrenes advice, he swings his Adamantine Fauchard +1 twice at the scariness.

Scare Be Gone: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31

Critically scared?: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29

Poof The Scary Away: 4d8 + 32 ⇒ (4, 2, 4, 4) + 32 = 46

Incorporeal Iterative: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Cut The Fears: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (8, 1) + 16 = 25

Snorting fireworks will do that...

Dissa takes a 5' step to threaten the monstrous spider, flanking thanks to his Gang Up skills. He full attacks the beast, expecting the smaller vermin to coalesce into a swarm of some sort.

"Cyrene, we might need you to nuke the little ones, but I think we got the big one." Shouts the flash of jade green and adamantine as he steps into combat.

Fauchard Power Attack, Haste & Outflank: 1d20 + 11 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 11 + 1 + 4 = 35 Threat!
Confirm?: 1d20 + 11 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 11 + 1 + 4 = 31
Crit Damage: 4d8 + 32 ⇒ (7, 4, 7, 5) + 32 = 55

Iterative: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 6 + 1 + 4 = 29 Threat!
Confirm?: 1d20 + 11 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 1 + 4 = 27
Crit Damage: 4d8 + 32 ⇒ (5, 8, 3, 1) + 32 = 49

Haste: 1d20 + 11 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 1 + 4 = 28
Regular Ole' Damage: 2d8 + 16 ⇒ (1, 6) + 16 = 23

Dissa throws a few spells on himself, Protection from Evil, Fallback Strategy, and Bless Weapon

"Let's do it! Cast your preparatory magic now, if you have it." Once buffed, the Paladin slices the door with his Adamantine Fauchard, and charges headlong into the breach.

Dissa looks with disgust to the guards. "You guys suck."

He turns toward Cyrene, kneels so closely to her that her hair brushes the front if his helmet. He speaks softly, but just loud enough for his breath to gently caress her cheek. "Any ideas? You are as smart as you are charming. I look forward to your suggestions." The warrior winks as he stands and turns to face the shoddy doors.
