Girion, Son of Aroden's page

There can be only one! Starts hunting down Wicked Brew's characters in the hope that once all of the aspects have been reunited in one host, it will result as being reborn as the Lord of Murde... er, Last Azlanti.

As a direct lineal descendant of Aroden through several hundred generations, I'm calling "dibs" on the whole reborn thing... ;)

Argh, I can't commit Girion to playing the follow-up, as I have him planned to play some local scenarios in the next month... so I'll have to bow out. Have fun!

"canoodling" is probably exactly what I expect from the context... I think he's got "pies" for another girl...

Thanks, Ray! Great game. Definitely interested in the sequel.

Girion is 15998-10. He's a full-time Pathfinder, so no day job check.

Is there a map of the room we can use?

"Hmm... last apparent room with a large wheel, probably can't ignore this one," Girion mutters. He sheathes his sword and grabs his short spear.

"Let me go first, and I'll check the footing with my spear," he suggests.

Thanks! So, we don't have to go through this room to explore the last area, correct?

"I suggest we go around and head south... there is little to be gained by dealing with this fungus which clearly can be deadly." Girion eyes the bloated corpses on the floor. He will take 20 on Perception from each door, seeing if he can spot anything that makes him change his mind.

Take 20 on perception = 20

All I'm concerned about is mapping the room - are there other exits? (Lost track of which map we're on...)

"Lumnessa, be caref... never mind," says Girion, too late. If he has time, he grabs the gnome and pulls her back away from the fungus, shielding her with his body.

"Hmm... this looks unpleasant..." mutters Girion. Is this something I can recognize?

Knowledge (dungeoneering): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23 I don't have Knowledge (nature), if that is what is needed.

"Indeed... let's be done with this place as quickly as possible!"

Girion adds this room to his crude map, and searches for any items of interest to annotate it with. "Big frogs" seems unimportant... I wonder why there's water in here in the first place?

Perception: 1d20 ⇒ 17

+ eleventy billion for style...

Girion stabs at the frog again! Longsword: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Hmm... no, no it's not. Thanks for the catch!

Girion will advance and attack the frog around the corner of the sarcophagus. Longsword: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Been using the wrong 'to hit' bonus for my sword... not that it's mattered, with my rolls... fixed now.

Girion slashes again at the bluish frog, trying to finish it off. longsword: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 "Iomedae, guide my sword!"

Girion slashes at the blue-striped frog with his longsword! Longsword: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

If the frog makes a hostile move, Girion attempts to skewer it with his spear. shortspear: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12damage?: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

(Ready action to attack frog if it attacks us.)

"Sounds good, Tan'ia," Girion replies. Girion leaves his sword in its sheath and carries his shortspear.

Girion prepares himself for the rigors ahead.

Yes, a nap would be in order if people need to rest.

Girion looks askance at Lumnessa. "I hardly think desecrating the tomb of the town's founder will earn us much respect in Kassen," he explains to the gnome gently. "Besides, we still have to recover the "everflame" and return it to the town along with the survivors and the bodies."

Knowledge (religion): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21

"This dead man is a follower of Razmir, the so-called "Living God" across the Lake. Ill news for Kassen if they have taken an interest in this region."

Girion stands shakily and uses his wand again. "Does anyone else require healing?" CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

After ensuring everyone is healed, Girion talks to Dimira. "Your brother is safe. We will take you and him home to Kassen very soon." Surveying the crypts, he turns to the rest of the Pathfinders. "Surely we should catalogue these burials and items before leaving, though... who knows when the Society will be invited to participate in the Quest for the Everflame again? ... or if there ever will be another Quest, after this disaster...

Girion would like to spend some time taking notes on the three crypts, making rubbings of any interesting headstones, and recording all historical data in the tomb, along with a decent map. He will use detect magic and take 20 on Perception (for a 20) as well.

Girion smiles in his sleep, feeling the cool breeze from Harrow's mighty swing...

I didn't know we could 5' step on the stairs... darn. Well, live and learn. Or at least, learn...

"Lumnessa!" Girion will use his wand on the gnome as soon as it is his turn.

CLW wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

On his turn, Girion will use his wand of cure light wounds again and try to blast the talkie skeleton.

melee touch: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 3 + 2 = 18CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Girion shield bashes the skeleton as it tries to move past him! Shield bash: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (2) - 1 = 1Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Girion uses his wand to heal Tan'ia, and stands firm against the skeletons, his shield ready to bash any who try to move past him.

cure light wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Yes!

On his turn, Girion will drop his sword (free action), pop his wand of cure light wounds out of his spring-loaded wrist sheath (swift action), activate the wand (standard action), and touch the skeleton in front of him (free action as part of casting the spell). "Iomedae!"

melee touch: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 positive energy damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Merry Christmas, if that's what you celebrate - or enjoy the solstice festival of your choice. One of the things I love - no matter our culture or creed, everyone feels joy as the solstice passes and we start gaining daylight. All the best!

And for reference - we're doing pretty good here, the game I'm running is only up to about 300 posts and two players are mostly AWOL...

As mentioned, Girion will swing at the talking skeleton with his longsword since it advanced to meet him.

Longsword: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14 Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

He remains where he is, since he can't 5' step on the stairs.

I assume the sleeping woman matches the description of Roldare's sister?

Girion looks at the skeletal figure with disdain. "You cannot be Kassen - even in undeath, he would never turn against the town he built. Name yourself, so that I might know you before I free your soul!" The halo of light around his head flares, filling the room with the holy light of Iomedae.

First action: cast divine favor on myself if I'm not engaged; if he threatens me, I will instead attack with my longsword, activating my legalistic curse ability to gain +4 on the attack roll. (Since I promised to rescue Roldare's sister, I presume killing this guy first qualifies.)

Girion backs Harrow up.

"Well done, everyone! Be on your guard, whatever took Roldare's sister is still ahead, somewhere..." ...I hope...

Girion will examine the doors to make sure they are safe, and then wait until the group is ready before opening them.

Perception: 1d20 ⇒ 8

"I agree - everyone move as quickly as you can!" Girion will go last.

I will heal Arak if he still needs it.

cure light wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Girion looks down, his face flushing slightly. "Thank you, Arak," he replies. Jumping is no good... rope to go down and then up again? "How should we proceed?"

(Girion is healed up and updated.)

Once everyone is done examining the situation, Girion will steel himself and cross the bridge, staying as far from the statues as possible.

Girion advances to the edge of the bridge and looks down into the chasm. How deep is it? I have light on my head from my halo. Surveying the statues, he muses, "The last statues I saw hit me in the head...and these ones don't have pillows on them."

Perception: 1d20 ⇒ 10

Yep, head to the door, and see what we can hear before opening it.

Girion will heal people as needed, first stopping bleed effects and then healing everyone to full. (Dice below are for myself, let me know how many you need.)

cure light wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Girion, distracted by the bats and bleeding, tries to avoid the swarm. "If anyone has fire, now is the time!"

Fort save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

I always wondered about that... with a flying swarm, what does the vial actually hit to break? I always assumed it just sort of splashed around...

Girion drops his sword at his feet (in my square, not the pool!) and pulls out a vial from his belt pouch. Loosening the lid, he hurls the flask of acid into the swarm! ranged touch: 1d20 ⇒ 3acid damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2Miss direction: 1d8 ⇒ 3

Sorry!

Is there a new map? I don't know what we're fighting...

Girion stands ready to engage whatever the squeaky things are.

Girion shouts, "The water holds fell magic... beware!" Can we 'aid another' on a Will save? ;)

Girion enters the room as well, wary for trouble.

Girion would prefer to find Roldare's sister as soon as possible, as he promised to do. He just tends to worry out loud.
