Hydris Bane's page

Hydris smiles "Nice to meet ya! I channel the spirit of the great Pathfinder Durvin Gest!"

Hydris is a medium (champion), he's currently level 6. In combat he mostly just fires his bow a lot taking advantage of the halfling FCB to increase his damage.

Longbow +10/+10+/10 1d6+8

Hydris fires off another set of bludgeoning arrows, hoping to finish off the creature quickly.

longbow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29
bludgeoning damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

Rapid longbow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30
bludgeoning damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14

Sudden longbow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27
bludgeoning damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

What are we currently waiting for? Also, this encounter is rough for us.

reflex: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14

What does the creature look like? I don't see any description.

know planes: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

Assuming I don't learn anything that would make this seem like an extraordinarily bad idea...

Despite his severe acid burn Hydris steps forward and unloads a full set of arrows at the strange creature.

longbow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15
bludgeoning damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

Rapid longbow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26
bludgeoning damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

Sudden longbow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (10) + 11 = 21
bludgeoning damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

If the 21 misses, using spirit surge to add spirit surge: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Hydris is fine.

will vs fear: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 2 + 4 = 23

Hydris, like most halflings is of course fearless.

Hydris points to the one on the left

"Lets start with that one first."

As a heads up I'm going to be travelling all day Wednesday and likely won't be able to post until Thursday.

I'll then be in England on vacation for 2 weeks. Will have plenty of internet but am likely to post a bit less than normal although still managing at least once and hopefully twice most days.

Hydris looks to his companions "Where to next?"

Hydris nods to Valandil.

Yes, ha.

Hydris shrugs and then thinks better of it and casts detect psychic significance on the katana.

Running low on arrows Hydris fires a trio of bludgeoning arrows into the ooze.

longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 10 + 1 + 1 = 18

bludgeoning damage: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 1 = 14
miss on the final arrow.

arrow recovery?: 1d100 ⇒ 8

Hydris once again lets loose a flurry of arrows.

"Hang on Periel!" Hydris shouts.

Blessed longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 10 + 1 + 1 = 27

Have precise shot, not ignoring cover, spirit surge for SS: 1d6 ⇒ 3 extra to hit if there's a miss.

Allies: please don't forget my +2 to non spell damage rolls

Hydris once again fires as fast as he can

"This reminds me of the time Durvin Gest nearly ran out of arrows before he realized he was fighting a troll, luckily we don't seem to have that sort of situation here."

Blessed longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 10 + 1 + 1 = 18

Allies: please don't forget my +2 to non spell damage rolls

Mykel: I don't see a good way to get you adjacent based on the terrain .

Did any of my hits miss? Did I need to use my spirit surge?

Hydris steps up to the corner, leans around and unloads a flurry of arrows at the ooze.

Blessed longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 10 + 1 + 1 = 27

Delay

I'm slightly confused, what do we see? Why are we in initiative?

Hydris mentions "Another Wall scythe, this ones doesn't look as well maintained, it might not reset properly."

perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (8) + 15 = 23

Hydris keeps his eyes open as he steps into the room.

Hydris nods, eager to hurry away form both the smell and the traps.

Hydris spits up something phlegmy and unpleasant "Yuck, I thought we were done with the foul smells."

Hydris nods, "Lets explore elsewhere for now and see if there's a back way into that chamber."

perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (14) + 15 = 29

Hydris keeps an eye out as he follows behind his puppy.

With the trap resetting, Hydris instead commands his puppy to go north and around, following behind about 10 feet to give further instructions

"Let's try going around" Hydris suggests.

What happened to my summoned puppy?

Hydris will then back up a bit, motion others back and then summon his own monster.

moved everybody back a bit, please feel free to rearrange if desired.

Hydris will then summon a dog onto the stairs and motion her forward.
CL 6 so I can have up to 6 rounds of dog.

Hydris looks at Ashara puzzedly for a moment before taking offence "Look, just 'cuz I'm a halfling... See, I've got no more ability to disarm a trap than you and after those grasping whatevers from the opening room I've got no desire to be hit by any other traps here."

Hydris shrugs

"Lets back up and summon something, I think that's our best bet."

Hydris consoles Calypso "Next time we camp friend."

Hydris raises a hand "Hold. There's a trap just in front of Periel."

Hydris will then point out the trap to others as best he can.

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Hydris continues with the group, his eyes open for trouble.

Hydris smiles at the crab and muses outloud.

"Next time we camp, remind me to tell you the time Durvin Gest was rescued from certain doom in old Azlant by his newfound companion's crab companion"

Hydris nods, taking a peek at his dwindling arrow supply, and recovering missed arrows from that fight before hurrying out of the foul smelling room before finally taking a breath. Several breaths.

Hydris nods, "I'm glad to be through with that enemy."

Hydris takes another step, fearing he may have to take a breath soon and fires at the creature, hoping to end this fight.

precise Longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 1 = 18
damage: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 1 = 14

Rapid Longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 10 + 1 = 19

Surprise Longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 10 + 1 = 26
damage: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 1 = 10

Hydris takes another step forward, still holding his breath as he unleashes another flurry of arrows.

precise Longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 10 + 1 = 23
damage: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 1 = 12

precise Rapid Longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 10 + 1 = 24

precise Sudden Longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 1 = 18
damage: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 1 = 11

Hydris steps to the side, unable to get a completely clear shot due to Periel's new large size, Hydris steps to the side and unleashes a flurry of arrows.

Longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 10 + 1 = 16
damage: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 1 = 12

Rapid Longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 10 + 1 = 27

Sudden Longbow: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 10 + 1 = 14
damage: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 1 = 14

Have precise shot, not including the +4 ac for cover. If the 27 misses I'll use spirit surge and add spirit surge: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Hydris takes a big gulp of air before holding his breath as he slides into the room, hoping to deal with whatever that is making all the noise before he has to breath in this foul stench.

Once Hydris is in the clear and see's it he'll nock and fire an arrow.

point blank longbow: 1d20 + 12 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 12 + 1 = 21
point blank damage: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 1 = 15

If the 21 misses, Hydris will use spirit surge for an extra 1d6 ⇒ 1 bonus to the attack roll

Hydris shakes his head "Not going into that stench."

Hydris will instead head south, peeking his head around the corner.

perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (3) + 15 = 18

Hydris holds his nose shut "Anybosy sink we sould go the othser way?"

Hydris shrugs, not having a strong opinion at this point.

Hydris wonders loudmouth "I wonder how long those have been here? South it is I guess."

Hydris nods, moving along with Mykel, and covering him with his bow.

Will save vs fear: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 2 + 1 = 19

Like most halflings, Hydris is fearless.

Hydris steps back from the ghostly creature and fires another volley of ghost salted arrows at the creature.

Arrowed!: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26
ghost salt damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

Sudden Arrow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29
ghost salt damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

Rapid Arrow: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25
ghost salt damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14

Hydris lets off a little cheer as his volley of arrows tears through the animate dream.

Moved Mykel forward on the map.

Assuming Ashara shares the info about incorporeality...

Hydris draws and nocks a series of ghost salted cold iron arrows and fires them all point blank into the creature, making precise strikes to avoid Mykel.

Primary: 1d20 + 12 - 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 12 - 2 + 1 + 1 = 19
full damage to incorporeal: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 1 = 14
If this misses Hydris will spirit surge to add an extra to hit: 1d6 ⇒ 1

sudden strike: 1d20 + 12 - 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 12 - 2 + 1 + 1 = 32
full damage to incorporeal: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 1 = 13
Ghost salt doesn't allow crits unfortunately

rapid shot: 1d20 + 12 - 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 12 - 2 + 1 + 1 = 16
full damage to incorporeal: 1d6 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 1 = 13
If the 19 hit without assistance, and the 16 is a miss Hydris will use spirit surge here for the spirit bonus instead. retroactive to hit bonus: 1d6 ⇒ 2

I has returned from PaizoCon.

Definitely for things like initiative you should just be rolling them.

initiative: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
