Male Half-Elf DEAD
The chronicle sheet looks fine; thanks for running that :-)
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Valais, please, come with us - the Society may be able to fix you (or at least stabilise your condition); I don't think that it is safe to leave you here..."
Diplomacy: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (13) - 2 = 11.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
With a nod, Giovanni starts heading for the exit.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Will: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15 +2 if it is an Enchantment effect.
Giovanni shakes off the creature's attack.
As it retreats, he takes a swing.
Adamantine ECB: 1d20 + 8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 8 + 1 + 1 = 25, for 1d10 + 6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 1 + 1 = 10 *magical* damage.
"Perhaps we should just make a bee-line for the exit?"
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni moves to attack the ghost cow.
Adamantine ECB, Magic Weapon: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9, for 1d10 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 1 = 13 damage.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Sounds good to me!"
Giovanni follows Valais up the stairs.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Just poking this thread - Giovanni is almost finished the game that will make him 5th level, and I was wondering whether this game was going to start up again :-)
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Right then!"
Giovanni does his best to quickly collect whatever seems most valuable/important from the desk area (especially anything that detected as magic), and follows Gadget out.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Those things were extremely annoying!"
With a sigh of relief, Giovanni pulls out a wand, and starts healing himself.
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3.
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Casting a worried glance at Bullwhip, Giovanni tries to finish off the little creature.
Adamantine ECB: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 8 + 1 = 24, for 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11 damage.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni takes another swing.
Adamantine ECB: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 8 + 1 = 26, for 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7 damage.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"He's an agile little pest, isn't he?"
Giovanni gamely continues to swing at the little beast.
Adamantine ECB: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 8 + 1 = 16, for 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15 damage.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni tries to finish-off the beast.
Adamantine ECB: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 8 + 1 = 16, for 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12 damage.
Geez, I've been rolling rubbish...
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Oww!"
Giovanni responds by trying to chop the tiny little beast in half.
Adamantine Elven Curve Blade: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 1 = 15, for 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16 damage.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
With a frown, Giovanni takes a swing at the little terror assaulting him.
Adamantine ECB: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 8 + 1 = 21, for 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7 damage.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Wisdom: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14.
"I don't know what they are, but they look nasty; if we chop two of the chains, they'll come crashing down, and their cauldron along with them!"
Giovanni moves forward, and takes a swing at one of the chains with his adamantine weapon.
Admanatine ECB: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 2 = 14, for 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13 damage.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni frowns.
"Was that normal? As much as it pains me to say so, should we leave some of them intact, so the Society can try to work out exactly what has been done to these creatures?"
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Agreed."
Giovanni then turns to Jair.
"Should we copy down the exchange, or just move on?"
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni wrinkles his nose in distaste.
"Certainly, he is a man with rather.. unique hobbies..."
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni casts Guidance on himself, and then takes a closer look at the footprints.
Survival: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 3 + 1 = 19.
"There's some fairly fresh footprints over here, but I am having difficulty interpreting them..."
An assist would be lovely ;-)
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Right then."
Giovanni splashes his way over to the door, and opens it, praying that the seal *isn't* water tight, and that he doesn't suddenly get swept into the other room on a wave of water.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"...and quite a disgusting one to be up close and personal with; I feel like a need a bath!"
Giovanni gratefully accepts Gadget's wand, and splits the healing between his wand and hers.
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3.
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5.
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6.
CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7.
He then moves to carefully inspect the room.
Perception 'Take 10' = 31.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Ah! True - being restricted to a single move action means exactly that... Sorry you wasted the spell, Caerwynn.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
@Caerwynn: That may be true, but I am both Sickened *and* Nauseated - hence the two Fort saves...
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Escape Artist: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (14) + 0 = 14.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Fort: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9.
Fort: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14.
Giovanni starts retching.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni moves forward, and readies to take a swing at the creature when it clears the water.
Adamantine Elven Curve Blade: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23, for 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11 Slashing damage.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni looks thoughtful.
"Perhaps we could tempt it out of the water by bombarding it with your god's power?"
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Yeah, and given that slashing weapons do half damage in water...
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Of course!"
Giovanni happily provides Gadget with Desna's Guidance.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Any volunteers?", Giovanni says dryly.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni nods.
"Agreed. I don't suppose that you can identify it?"
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni carefully looks over the room, as well, reluctant to go wading in foul water, but knowing that it will probably have to happen, in order to reach the other door.
Perception 'Take 10' = 31.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Anyone fancy going for a swim...?"
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Some things probably don't need quite this level of enthusiasm, though..." Giovanni notes dryly.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Heal: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10.
Moving on to the next room, Giovanni shudders.
"I know they were probably all from demons, but still, harvesting them for spare parts like that..."
Looking a little green, he retreats back to the first room, and waits for the party to gather up, before opening the door.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Well, I ain't touching him."
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Heal: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9.
Giovanni shrugs.
"I'll have to take your word for that."
Heal: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25.
Suddenly, he stiffens.
"The Elf technically isn't dead. See how he writhes in agony? However, it isn't just that - the parasite in him appears to be waiting for someone to get close..."
He then quickly moves on to the next room.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Alright, let's see what else this place holds..."
Although frankly, I'm not sure whether I really want to know.
So saying, Giovanni steps forward, and gingerly opens the next door.
Position updated on map.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni wrinkles his nose in distaste, then carefully searches the area.
Perception - 'Take 10' = 31.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Didn't you read the inscription?" Giovanni asks dryly. "Of course, if they were being metaphorical, I will admit that I do run the risk of looking a bit stupid..."
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Knowledge(Religion): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11.
Perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (5) + 21 = 26.
"Interesting... the dwarf is off-balance, and the bull is poised to strike..."
Giovanni takes a closer look.
Perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (7) + 21 = 28.
"Is that an inverted pentagram on the bull's brow?"
Knowledge(Religion): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20.
"Oh! It's the symbol of Baphomet, the demon lord of beasts, labyrinths, and minotaurs. That doesn't bode well..."
With a shrug, Giovanni warily approaches the statue, and says his name into the ear of bull.
"Giovanni di Pietro di Bernardone."
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Giovanni nods.
"Agreed. We should keep moving."
He then does exactly that, although he keeps an eye out for spectral forces.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Excellent :-)
Giovanni, keeping a careful eye on what is going on around him, suddenly stiffens.
"Guys? We are not alone down here... I briefly caught a glimpse of a faint, transparent horn peeking out of a wall before it sunk back into the surface... if I was a betting man, I would say there was some sort of incorporeal creature about..."
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Male Half-Elf DEAD
Perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (1) + 21 = 22.
Giovanni manages to quickly flick through all of the relevant texts.
"Huh. I think that you will find that the majority of the works detail the studies of demonic anatomy, surveys of the southeastern corner of the Worldwound, and Sakorian relics tainted by the Abyss. Thurl may have used unsavory business practices to get this information..."
Perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (7) + 21 = 28.
"There is also another secret door over on the eastern wall."
Perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (14) + 21 = 35.
Giovanni gives a start when he sees the creature that is in the room with the party.
"Hello! I'm Giovanni di Pietro di Bernardone. Who are you? More importantly, what the heck *are* you?"
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Okay then, let's see what awaits us down below!"
Before doing so, however, Giovanni does a little buffing.
Just my long-term ones: Longstrider, and Delay Poison.
Male Half-Elf DEAD
"Hmmm... Let's be careful; there's no telling what we will find down here..."
Giovanni carefully inspects the protective ward.
Perception 'Take 10' = 31.
