Hal also looks round at all of his companions, "Aye, a pleasure indeed. Should any of you require assistance on your ventures please let me know, I will not hesitate to join you."

Hal wanders off with Ruckus by his side once more, Two elven battle goddesses and a wonderfully helpful gnome. Hal gives one final look over his shoulder, I should probably figure out why women with pointed ears are so attractive... Ruckus just pants by his side, ready for their next venture.

"Captain Heidmarch will be glad to hear this is over with."

Merci Baerlie, was very fun, even got some RP and a smile out of a human despising elf ;)

"I only wanted to stop any foul magics before they happened, and Wizzy was a grand help as well with his invigorating words and spells. Perhaps I can shoot the tubes from a distance? If anyone would like I have a spare bow in my quiver."

Plain and simple archers are OP in ways they never were before PF. I didn't know how much so when I first made this character.

Hal listens to Wizzy's inspirational tune, letting it full his heart and his mind with determination. "I'll take Black if you guys can handle the thing in the coffin!"

This is the first time I've been able to use Hunter's Eye since my very first adventure.

"Woah." Hal squints harder at the 'woman' in the distance. "Huh. Didn't see that coming." Hal raises his voice once more, "Who's in the tubes? If I find that you have captured people in some sick experiment YOU'LL be the next one in a tube!" Hal strides forward slowly, eyes scanning to avoid traps or pitfalls.

Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26

"Well that didn't work." Hal looks at the person across the room. "Old woman! Where is Chrysalis Black? I would have words with him!"

Purposefully not doing that Perception test, going to keep saying old woman until someone points out otherwise.

Hal leans into his companions whispering, "Let's try to advance as far as we can before surprising her. I'm curious as to where Black is though..."

For when we move, Stealth: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (13) + 15 = 28

Hal looks on as Alektara quietly works, "That's a useful skill set to have...My fingers may be nimble, but I don't have the training to do that. Would you mind teaching me sometime?"

"Aye"

Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

"To be honest you're probably stronger and more experienced now than the last time you fought one, I know I am."

Ruckus yelps as the golem hits him and Hal growls in the back of his throat. Seeing Alektara take down the Golem calms him some. He rushes to his hound's side and pulls out his wand. "You did good boy. Here, let me help you. Flitwick."

Wand uses: 3d8 + 3 ⇒ (3, 5, 4) + 3 = 15
More: 2d8 + 2 ⇒ (8, 6) + 2 = 16

After healing his friend Hal commands, "Alright boy, see if you can't find the arrow that bounced off that thing's thick skin."

Arrow recovery, high good: 1d100 ⇒ 40

Ruckus comes back head down and whining. "It's Ok boy, you'll find it next time."

Hal looks over at the golem again, "I still really hope that thing wasn't his mother. Alright, now we're off to see the wizard! Probably to wring his scrawny neck!"

Hal calls to Ruckus, "Attack" pointing at the doll Suri is savaging at the moment.

Ruckus Atk: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 2 = 18 Ruckus Dmg: 1d6 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 2 = 12

Hal himself focuses on the golem Probably best not to let that thing get up and start swinging

All arrows are CI with Adamantine Blanch. Note to self, buy A LOT more

I'll be travelling for most of tomorrow, so I won't be able to post quickly, but I'll get at least one post up.

Hal gives a lop-sided grin, "Yeah, I remember these guys. Though the ones I fought were amalgamated to look like demons and definitely NOT wearing a dress and floral slippers"

He snaps his fingers, remembering something. "And before I forget," Hal digs into his pack and retrieves a small pair of gilded wings, "these are in case Suri needs to fly. Easier than getting her to drink a potion, and I always carry a pair for Ruckus." He tosses the wings to Shayla saying, "Just stick them on her back and say the phrase 'Wingardium'. She'll be airborne in no time."

Item in question Feather Token: Floating Feather

Hal moves closer to the corpse, not trusting it to not rise up and attack.

Hal holds his hand up to his nose and mouth feeling slightly nauseous, partly from the smell, partly from the implication. "That" he whispers with a hoarse voice. He clears his throat and tries again, "That woman upstairs mentioned his mother. I pray to Erastil that she didn't mean this."

He tentatively walks forward looking for any signs of movement in the corpse.

Hal sets his jaw and keeps an arrow nocked. "Let's go"

Keeping an eye out for traps: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19

We can come back and search the rooms later. I'd rather not have Black sneaking away.

Hal makes sure he has easy access to his quivers and nods.

"Aye, let's"

Hal looks at the rest of the group. "Tie her up and leave her here until we deal with Black? Or something else? I have my preference, but we took her down together, it should be a group decision."

Hal smirks, "See? Grisly death avoided. Now what part do you play in this? How do you know Black and why are you working for him? And please take off that disguise, I'll feel more comfortable talking with the real you rather than a facsimile."

Hal gives the man who screamed a sorrowful expression, "Normally I would regret it, but when I am assisting such talented individuals as my companions I tend not to worry about it."

Hal looks askance of the woman, "Are you sure you wouldn't rather just tell us where Black is? I'm sure it will save you and your companions a very grisly death."

Its one of the weird rules interactions, think it'll be up to you to decide how you want to run it. And yes, I actually moved there, but my google drive crashed before it saved.

Hal rushes inside the door hoping to surprise the enemy with such a bold move. "And I was so hoping not to have to spill actual blood today." Hal takes a shot at the woman once he is inside, wary of the other fighters entering the room.

Deadly Aim, Fight Defensively, Point Blank: 1d20 + 11 + 4 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 4 - 4 + 1 = 23

Take 10 Perception: 10 + 9 + 4 = 23

Hal smiles ruefully and leans on his bow. "Alright sweety, you caught me." His smile disappears and his voice takes on a sharper, commanding tone, "I guess that makes both of us liars. You see, I took these books from Black's private study after killing the animated dirt and statue he sent to kill me. Now tell me, WHERE IS BLACK BEFORE I DO THE SAME TO YOU."

Intimidate: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23

Only affects those who were within the spell radius when it was cast.

"Oh really? That's too bad. I was told he would be here. You see I borrowed some books from him and just wanted to return them to their proper owner. They were quite the fascinating read. Could you perhaps tell me where he resides now then? I do so hate to be indebted to anyone."

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32 +4 if human
Bluff: 1d20 ⇒ 19

I hope she's telling the truth, I'd rather not have innocent blood on my hands

Hot rolls tonight folks!

Hal is sweating on the inside. I hope Black isn't the type of person to take people hostage, because I see a couple of human shields in front of me right now...

Hal whispers to Ruckus very quickly, "Defend!" pointing at Wizzy again before slipping through his companions and out the door.

Stealth: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 15 = 20
Unsure if Invis bonus would apply

Pretending to have been outside the entire time Hal peeks around the door jamb. "Hello?" he calls meekly. "I'm sorry to disturb you, I wasn't sure if anyone was in or not and I didn't want to just barge in. I was wondering if someone could assist me. I was looking for a man, Chrysalis Black? I was told he lives here."

Bluff: 1d20 ⇒ 6

Welp, I hope you guys are prepared to help when I get angry glares and shouted words.

"I think that defeats the purpose of us being invisible. If necessary one of us should step outside the circle and the rest see what happens. I volunteer."

Well we're walking in while inwizable right? Otherwise my Wayfinder is always hanging from a pouch on my chest.

Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23
Stealth Hal: 1d20 + 20 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 20 + 15 = 40
Stealth Ruckus: 1d20 + 20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 20 + 7 = 31

*sigh* This is what happens when I don't open the map.

"Good idea Wizzy. Shayla, Alektara you two hit the hardest with your swords, one of you two should head in first, I'll cover you."

Hal grunts, "Nice place, if a bit creepy. Through the fence or over it?"

Did not even notice that.

Take 10 Perception: 10 + 9 = 19
Appraise Untrained: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

"Hey Wizzy, I found a wand. Think you can identify it for us? I don't know any orisons."

Skimming over the books Hal notices the esoteric titles. "Anyone have any objections to taking these with us?"

Hal smiles at the absurdity of living dirt attacking. He pulls out a wand from his bag to heal his minor injuries "Flitwick"

Wand Cure Lt.: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 71d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Take 10 Perception: 10 + 9 = 19

Rummaging through the melt's clothing and gear Hal comes across the Consortium badge. Holding it up for the others to see he says calmly, "Well, at least this explains his issue with Pathfinders. Anyone else up for a trip to the Doll House? "

Ruckus barks at his Master's praise, bits of wood still in his teeth.

With all of the dirt and dust flying around the cuts covering Hal's arms and face begin to sting.

"Good job Ruckus!"

Hal looks over where Alektara, Shayla, and Suri are busy making the earth elemental into smaller and smaller piles of dirt. "You ladies mind if I join in?"

Hal Reflex: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26
Ruckus Reflex: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Hal springs away from the majority of the chips, but several cuts appear on his arms and face. Ruckus being more nimble avoids everything Evasion.

"All right, I guess you're going to be a pain now. Ruckus attack!"

Hal, not realizing what the Earth Elemental is, cries out, "He's even animated dirt to kill us?! He's nuts!"

Full Atk Earth Elemental. All arrows CI and covered in Silver blanch

Ruckus turns to face the new threat but doesn't leave Wizzy's side.

Hal jumps backwards and slams into the bar. "Easy there chair! I'm not a stool!"

He fires arrows into the chair to make it into a pin-cushion.
Full Atk1, Deadly Aim, Point-Blank: 1d20 + 11 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 11 + 5 + 1 = 35

Avoiding the attacks of the the golem Hal wonders aloud, "Where's the real Black if this one was just slush?"

Yeah...Archers are ridiculously easy to build for stupid DPR. I just didn't want spells. Spells are nasty.

Hal scratches his head, "Huh, guess we don't have to stabilize him after all."

Hal looks down at the peculiar form of furniture reproduction before stepping away to let the chair have its private time with the stool.

Grabbing more arrows from his quiver Hal shouts to his companions, "Someone can stabilize this man, right?"

Deadly Aim, Rapid Shot, Favored enemy: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32

Damage 3: 1d8 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16

Pointing at Wizzy again Hal commands Ruckus, "Defend!

I'm going to try and take Black out as quickly as possible, I am worthless against animated furniture.

Archer shuffle away from chair
Full attack Black
Free - command Ruckus, who moves next to Wizzy and Alektara with AC22 vs AoOs

Hal carefully knocks one of his blunt arrows and stares daggers at Black. "It would be rather simple 'forget' to add one's mark to the golems being crafted if they were never intended to protect the bearer of Sheila's Wayfinder. So please, give me a reason not to listen to my comrade here and you might survive with only a few bruises"

Ruckus sensing his master's displeasure growls low in his throat hackles raised.

Intimidate: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Hal leans on his bow and gives the biggest grin he can, "Yes, they seem to have been given the wrong commands by whomever enchanted them. It appeared intentional." My nocking fingers are itchy, please let me know if you'd rather I be less antagonistic.

"Aye, but what are the chances of that?" he says as it springs to life and starts strangling him

Sigh

Growing curious Hal goes and starts examining the Golem in the corner.

Hal smiles as he looks at Ruckus fondly, "No actually. I just sort of happened upon him, like you did, out hunting. I noticed growling and yipping, and when I arrived at the scene I saw a pup trying to scare off a large wolf. May have even been one of my father's pack, but I was able to scare it off when I put a few silver tips in its hide. I decided to name him Ruckus after all of the commotion he caused, and kept him in Fusil until he was old enough to help me hunt. His nose has helped me on several occasions now."

Hal looks Shayla directly in the eye, "It is always good to find more agents that appreciate the help companions such as ours can give."
