Hecktor's page

And our replacements are the kids we saved, and their friends. :)

The next crew of heroes to thwart Drazmorg.

Although it's a classy reasoning, it's a pity we slew one cold rider, only for Jaxom to take its place.

I'd thought he'd be an unorthodox method guy, maybe 'kidnapping back' his sister, have her thaw to the good side again.

I'm happy with the ending between Silas and Hecktor, his last post a few above would be a great one.

Maybe Silas, with Jaxom's help, has the chance to work something out with the queen.

Seeds for fast growing lumber near the city, so they won't need to cut down the Vale.

I can see some of the kids growing up to become say...sheriff or deputy, like mister Baleson and mister Gared were.

Maybe Vade's son becomes a mediator between the mortals and the fey, an ambassador of sorts?

Oh Hecktor will take his wife to that tour.
Almas can do without the two for a little while anyway.
Btw, good job on getting Father Brimshaw sacked.

;)

Don't worry Niles, i'm just saying the sentiment.

I'm looking forward to Niles' epilogue to this adventure.

Hecktor resigns from his mercenary unit and properly get together with the pretty redhead in Almas.

All of the team are invited, provided messages can reach them.
In preparation, he'd sent a letter to a certain inquisitor, to do the words, as it turns out, she's a follower of Iomedae, and a certain Father Brimshaw had been revoked from his clergy duties and kicked out of the church, who claims to have been set up through 'false' rumors.

While not returning to a fulltime life in the fields and acres, he uses some of the money he had made to buy a house with a garden, doing his old profession as a hobby on part of it, while now working part time as a combat instructor for those taking up the path of adventurer.

After all the sh!te he'd been through with his friends, he imparts the value of manners and respect for the environment into those who do.
It was, after all, the start of it all, and fey who had helped him and his friends while they themselves helped the fey in return.

He stays in touch as good as possible with the others, as they are his friends for life.
------------------
------------------

That would be about it.

This was a great game Niles, thanks.

Well, since i didn't know if you'd go for occult classes.
Plus some classes like gunslingers and summoners, those are often avoided.

Something quick:

What classes are accepted?

I'll probably post Hecktor's epilogue in the later hours tonight.

No?

Then who's going to tell Hecktor's kids about the stuff their father and he did during time off, that he never told them? :)

Sent him a PM just now.

Maybe we should send Michael a PM, to let him know we all still live, that no adjustments need to be made in regard to funeral tales.

His bruises and other small wounds sustained closing, Hecktor breathes in deep via his noise and and exhales.

"Thanks. Don't forget some credit to yourselves, you guys have been shooting magic and projectiles like mad as well."

I've been mauled by a warg, nearly eviscerated by a lumber contraption and a few other tough calls i'd have to skim for, but i was genuinely worried i might kick the bucket here. :) No pain, no gain, right?
Tbh, i worried you'd be doing the breath attack thing in particular.
Nice job Niles ;)

Hecktor smiles broadly, as the impact of Arrow, magic and his and Silas' steel finally took down Drazmorg.

He can't suppress a hearty "Haha, he's down, HE'S DOWN."
He clenches Silas with one arm.
"A great attack my friend. Now, let's go down to the others."

Capito jefe.

Hecktor can't suppress a sharp yell of YEAH!, as he sees Silas finish off the dragon.

But then a great ball of fire flies to somewhere between him and Silas.
"Silas, dodge it!"

He covers his own face and leans to the back, to try and avoid the worst.
Reflex?: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 10 - 2 = 25

Hecktor charges at Drazmorg.
Slice Drazzy: 1d20 + 16 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 16 + 7 - 4 = 37Dmg: 2d4 + 13 + 6 + 3 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (1, 2) + 13 + 6 + 3 + 2 + (3, 4) = 34

Spending hero point to attack again.
Slice Drazzy: 1d20 + 16 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (16) + 16 + 7 - 4 = 35Dmg: 2d4 + 13 + 6 + 3 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (1, 4) + 13 + 6 + 3 + 2 + (5, 2) = 36

-3 to each :/

(Fingers crossed)

True. As i'm looking on the map, you needn't move that arrow's pointed square.
If i move 5ft SE, and you 5ft NE, we are flanking as well.
Your call.

Every bit helps.

Holy crap...i'm dead next time...

Fly: 1d20 + 2 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 + 2 - 2 = 12
Fly: 1d20 + 2 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 + 2 - 2 = 10

"Grr...damn you!"

Scythe, buffs, pa: 1d20 + 16 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 16 + 7 - 4 = 272d4 + 13 + 6 + 3 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (1, 2) + 13 + 6 + 3 + 2 + (6, 4) = 37

Dmg: regular + PA + buff in stat bar + inspire + bane

I am yet again worried.... ;)

A question here.

We had Death Ward casted upon us.

The subject is granted a save to negate such effects even if one is not normally allowed.
-------------
The subject is immune to energy drain and any negative energy effects

Drazmorg casted enervation on me for those 2 negative levels.

Effect: ray of negative energy
------------
You point your finger and fire a black ray of negative energy that suppresses the life force of any living creature it strikes

Wouldn't this mean i didn't suffer those 2 negative levels?

Jaxom, how is your array of touch attack spells?

Big on AC, but low-ish on touch, dragons.

Protection from evil is still up, as Gilmork has buffed for 5 minutes. Heroism is also up, 10 mins/lvl. Bull strength too, at 1 min/lvl.
Divine favor up for another 5 rounds, including this one.

"Aye, to the end my friend, may that still be a long time from now."

Hecktor goes along with Silas, as far as possible.

Edited after Jaxom's comment.
Acrobatics vs aoo?: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Slice @ dragon?, PA: 1d20 + 16 + 6 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 16 + 6 + 2 - 4 = 38Dmg: 2d4 + 13 + 6 + 3 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (2, 3) + 13 + 6 + 3 + 2 + (6, 1) = 36

I can understand that, i am in that seat as well.

Prepare yourself when that time comes :)

A CR 22 vs us? Surely not...?

Not even i am that merciless to my group in my homebrew.

Holy....a dragon?

I'm not dying of dmg, but of negative levels XD

I found a picture, sort of what Hecktor could be equipped like.
But with less black of course.

Pic

"Don't sir me, you're a friend, no need for formalities.
Likewise though, the adventure was a great one."

He looks down at the other three.

"Whatever comes out, it's been great, now we get to a fight of our lives!!"

Has Drazzy empowered himself?

I'll have a look at what this 5E is like.
I've seen an example of a 3rd party scenario, the Assimilation Strain.
Dmg wise it's just half of the D*, apart from that, no knowledge.

Also, i'm thinking of running a 3rd party 1 shot scenario/module, normally run on a con, once i'm finished running Crypt of the Everflame.

It's basically in Tian Xia/Kaiden, where 5 PCs (pre-gen are included for this to be balanced, instead of custom crazyness) come together and have to survive a horror scenario against an ancient evil.

I'm currently already in a way of the wicked, and having fun being an evil sorcerer. Who's based on a character from a M&M 2 LP.

My PC intends to con Asmodeus and the group, by leave via a planar portal.

As is, my list is kind of full, which are mainly AP.
Although i've got a feeling that in the relative nearby future one of my games might run aground.

Seeing Jaxom's flight spell on Silas, he nods.

"Airborn brigade then, my friend?
The two of us up there, the others a welcoming below."

He shouts out in the room, in assumption Drazmorg can hear it.

"We'll end your reign Drazmorg, you'll meet your second death."

"Damnit...."

Hecktor moves back down towards Jaxom and the others.

"Nothing else to do but wait....."

Aha...1 move to you, 2nd move up to Drazzy and hero point to attack. :)
Come on guys, he shouldn't last that long anymore.

Hasted, i do get enough movement to move to Jaxom, then move up to Drazmorg, i think.
Let's see, i move 90 feet hasted, that's 1 move.
2nd move, if possible, walk to Jaxom and turn around, moving up.
Hero point to smack Drazmorg in his ugly face.

Then in worst case he'll have to resort to another hero point, if it would make the difference.

The following is in best case scenario, and is probably subject to change.

Hecktor delays until after Jaxom, hopefully he resists the suffocation or passes it with saving finale.
If Jaxom indeed gives Hecktor flight, Hecktor charges Drazmorg.

"I'm coming for you, shriveled floating corpse!!!"

Flying tank!, buffs & penalty: 1d20 + 16 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (3) + 16 + 6 - 4 = 21
Dmg: 2d4 + 13 + 9 + 2d6 - 3 ⇒ (4, 3) + 13 + 9 + (2, 5) - 3 = 33 -3 is the level dependant power attack penalty.

Use of 1 hero point, for an extra attack.
Flying tank!, buffs & penalty: 1d20 + 16 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (19) + 16 + 6 - 4 = 37
Dmg: 2d4 + 13 + 6 + 2d6 ⇒ (2, 4) + 13 + 6 + (3, 6) = 34 -3 on power attack dmg, due to the level penalty.

OVERKILL???!!!: 1d20 + 16 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 16 + 6 - 4 = 35
Dmg: 6d4 + 42 + 18 ⇒ (3, 1, 3, 2, 3, 4) + 42 + 18 = 76

Jaxom, pass your save mate, pass your save :)

Providing Jaxom passes his save and gets me flying.....Drazmorg.

Niles, can i use a hero point for an extra attack after move and attack?

We'll see what is going to happen. ;)
For now he's got 2 flak cannons to deal with.

Niles...
Does this guy know snowball?

I'm guessing we'll have to see if Luc and Gilmork pepper him to his 2nd death, if not i reckon he'll be spamming scorching rays at us.

For a change....our melee prowess is naught. :)

Those are some nice rolls Gilmork.

Will: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28

There goes my beautiful nat 20....

Hecktor can only move forward, and takes a defensive stance.

"You coward!! Get your cour shriveled face down here, if you want to fight!"

Likewise, i search for flying and flies on this page, no mention of such.
Edit: i looked back at the intro of him.....the guy hovers above the floor through magical means, but like you said, with Silas getting melee hits on him, i've not yet seen him fly up.

Edit 2:
If by all luck Jaxom's awesome stampede does as intended, could green bones be killed by a shot from someone? That would leave me a path to Drazzy.

It's 25, without the buffs.
26 with the bull strength.

Hecktor dodged the attack and lets out a mocking spit.

"What were you trying, huh?
It's the last thing you've ever DONE!!!"

Slice (forgot inspire last round): 1d20 + 16 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (2) + 16 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 - 3 = 21& Dice: 2d4 + 13 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 9 + 2d6 ⇒ (2, 1) + 13 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 9 + (5, 1) = 36
In the unlikely case he's not dead...
Slice (forgot inspire last round): 1d20 + 16 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (14) + 16 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 - 3 = 33& Dice: 2d4 + 13 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 9 + 2d6 ⇒ (4, 2) + 13 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 9 + (1, 2) = 36

If he is down, Hecktor walks 2 squares west, up to the bone.

I'm not yet familiar with 5E.

Is it simpler in setup?

Something off topic,

To what level does Hell's Rebels go?

Hecktor moves forward.

As he sees the hated skeletons, he goes for the closest.

"Out of my way!"

Scythe, lots of bonuses, PA: 1d20 + 16 + 1 + 2 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (19) + 16 + 1 + 2 + 1 - 3 = 36Dmg: 2d4 + 13 + 1 + 2 + 9 + 2d6 ⇒ (3, 3) + 13 + 1 + 2 + 9 + (5, 1) = 37

Crits would be better off on lich boy over there..
Scythe, lots of bonuses, PA: 1d20 + 16 + 1 + 2 + 1 - 3 ⇒ (19) + 16 + 1 + 2 + 1 - 3 = 36
Overkill: 6d4 + 39 + 3 + 6 + 27 ⇒ (2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 1) + 39 + 3 + 6 + 27 = 85

Though i'd like to ask....with this roll, could i throw it into his face and 1 shot kill him?
