Ignatius Van Hjorder's page

I'm having internet issues. Will the chronicle still be available on Monday?

No day job for Iggy.

And Eadie, no... well, maybe I am trying to beat you to the first star. I think running Tide of Twilight will put me up to that prestigious plateau of honor.

I

Ignatius gives the Dread Pirate Roberts Johendar a firm pat on the shoulder, "May Iomedae give you guidance in this task."

Johendar gets guidance.

Iggy follows the bellowing. "What are you going on about, Eadie?" His eyes shift from the fighter to the mirror she seems to be talking to.

"At any rate, we should get that mirror back to the Lodge, I'm sure it will prove to be a useful acquisition."

4 CLW: 4d8 + 4 ⇒ (8, 7, 8, 2) + 4 = 29

Ignatius breaks out his heretofore unused healing wand and mostly patches himself up. As he puts his wand back, he takes a look around the room. "Well now, I thought I had been hit much harder than I was. Seems I almost imagined myself falling down one of Master Ernest's frightful pits!"

As the others rummage through the bedroom, Iggy takes the surviving gnoll's things, "For safekeeping."

As Eadie opens up the secret door, the inquisitor's interest is piqued. "Well now, what's back there, eh?"

Iggy draws upon an inner resolve to keep himself steady on his feet after being smacked very hard by Chau. He cries out, [b]"Heal me, Iomedae, as I place a judgement on this one's head.

Swift action to make a Judgement of healing. Iggy gets fast healing 2.

He then keeps his distance from both the pit and from Chau, calling down a spiritual weapon in the guise of a spectral longsword to attack the gnoll.

Standard to cast spiritual weapon. It attacks Chau.

Spiritual Weapon Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Iggy is at 11/48 hp.

19 + 15 = 34

Oops, Eadie is right. All my fault for fast checking at work and messing up the math. So... Iggy is still standing. In a time crunch at the moment, can I retcon my turn?

@GM - no problem. Makes the most sense to me. I just think it's funny if I end up with another dead inquisitor.

-Posted with Wayfinder

So, 44 damage from both those attacks, GM?

Ignatius, caught unaware by Chau's ferocious attacks, falls prone as he is knocked unconscious.
At -1 hp

Stabilize: 1d20 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (15) + 2 - 1 = 16

Though lying in a bloody heap on the floor, Iggy's wound seems to be stabilizing.

So, it looks like I've ended my turn at the edge of the pit. Since I am unconscious, can I even make a Reflex Save? I'm at work and not able to look up the particulars. I will roll the save with my standard Reflex bonus and please apply whatever modifiers are appropriate.

Relflex: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 2 = 6

Okay, I don't think I've used my Character Folio for a re-roll yet.

Relflex: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 2 = 8

However, though his wound is stable, the inquisitor is not and he finds himself sliding into one of the magical pits that had been conjured up.

So, Iggy's in the pit at -10. He's still alive!

Pit Damage: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 1) = 9

Seeing the problem that Chau is causing Eadie and Lore, Ignatius rushes around to engage with her. Taking a quick moment of concentration to imbue his weapon with a bane against this gnoll, Ignatius then strikes. "May Iomedae cleanse this world of your filth!"

Bane class property, swift action 4/5 rounds remaining.

Power Attack, Bane: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 7 - 1 + 2 = 12
Damage, bane, awe: 1d8 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 2 + 2 + (4, 6) = 25

Character folio Reroll

Power Attack, Bane: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 7 - 1 + 2 = 28

Crit Confirm?: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 7 - 1 + 2 = 9

He will now constantly have a sock clinging to his cloak.

Reflex: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 3 + 2 = 22

Ignatius chuckles as he withstands the worst of the electrical charge.

Ignatius calls upon Iomedae to bless his sword to make it much more awesome. The sword hums with a power hitherto unknown to the simple inquisitor. He then makes his way across the room towards August and the hyena.

Cast weapon of awe on Iggy's longsword.

+2 AC and to Saves vs. evil creatures (protection from evil).

Ignatius looks at Eadie's helmeted face and points to his ear while nodding.

Yep, I heard them too.

He then holds his hand up, palm forward at Eadie, with a slight frown on his face. He quickly moves back down the corridor, calls quietly upon Iomedae to protect him from evil, and then returns to Eadie's side.

With a sheepish look, Ignatius gives everyone a quick nod to indicate he is ready.

He draws his sword.

"Ah yes - so it was a name after all that..." Ignatius offers to take lead down the long corridor.

"As for this unlucky gnoll...perhaps what proves unlucky to gnolls shall prove lucky for Pathfinders? Wouldn't that be nice..."

He keeps an eye out for any trouble.

Perception Aid: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

Agreed.

"That's as good a guess as any."

Ignatius has spent this time deeply thinking about what this password may be. Power, money, wealth? I don't know what this al'Jakri woman values...

He steps closer to Eadie, "Yes, I think you have the right of it. Certainly, one could offer nothing greater to this woman than the destruction of the Pathfinder Society. Well... perhaps some corruption of the Society Motto? Maybe something like 'Conquer, Destroy, Back-stab'?"

"Y-yes! We WOULD be willing to help," Ignatius says a little too loudly on account of being caught. [b]"My name is Ignatius of the Van Hjorder family. And yes, if you could help direct us to the lady of the manor, we would be most appreciative.

Knowledge (Planes) + Improved Monster Lore: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 4 = 14
Trying to identify what Johair is.

While he finishes speaking, Ignatius keeps a close eye on this outsider, hoping to figure the motivations.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26

Nope, not with Iggy.

Ignatius quickly dons his armor, shield and his backpack with his supplies.

He uses Eadie's wand to perform her healing and offers his own for use as well. "If anyone else needs healing, please allow me to help."

"Gima, you shouldn't have to lead all these slaves by yourself." He looks around at the others, "Perhaps... after we find this mirror, we can help guide the slaves to safety?" He turns back to Gima, "Do you think you can wait for us to return?"

Ignatius steps back over to the chest and retrieves his sword.

Sorry, I can't move on the map at the moment. Yes, I need to move next to August to cast divine favor. Can you move me so that between August and Lore?

Ignatius rushes to August's side with his holy symbol and blesses the dwarf with divine favor.

+1 to attack and damage.

Ignatius runs to the chest and opens it, hoping to quickly find his sword.

I'm guessing it will be a move to open the chest, or maybe a standard.

Hey, sorry. I've been travelling all day and then got sucked into watching that Scientology documentary on HBO.

Ignatius, seeing that things have now started to get violent, again curses himself for not hiding his holy symbol of Iomedae. Left without a weapon, armor or a means of reaching out to Iomedae in any meaningful way he decides that he must improvise.

"Freedom!" He shouts, in an effort to confuse things. He then breaks off a leg from one of the beds and rushes to Eadie's side.

Ignatius silently walks to the far end of the room, keeping his distance from the overseer. He curses himself for not hiding his holy symbol as carefully as he should have.

As he stands against the wall, he feels it with his hand, the cool stone a small relief from the oppressive heat of their march.

As Ernest and Eadie engage in conversation with Korshad, Ignatius watches the overseer with care, trying to determine the man's general attitude.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 20

Fort Save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Ignatius endures the long, hot forced march with stoic steadiness. She replies to Eadie's inquiries about his mother with frankness. "Oh I saw my mother often - at meals, when being disciplined and the like. She wasn't what one would call a nurturing mother - at least not in the traditional sense. As you ascertain, I did indeed receive most of my care and early tutelage from various wet-nurses, governesses and even porters. The Van Hjorder household lacked none of the material goods that make a life of ease for it's members."

Seeing the gnolls stand up and take an interest in Eadie and Gima, Ignatius stands up and tries to help Eadie calm the woman down.

"There there... things will be alright. Iomedae has a plan for us all. Please, sit...and rest. Our masters will be displeased if we wear ourselves out..."

Diplomacy: 1d20 ⇒ 10

Ignatius allows others to take the shadiest spots to sit and rest, such as they are. He wipes the sweat from his brow and kicks at the dirt and starts looking around at the other slaves and the gnolls.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32

What are those gnolls up to?

Ignatius allows himself to be ordered around. He does whatever Lore, August or the other slavemasters ask of him. Upon overhearing Eadie's conversation with Epanas, the inquisitor shakes his head softly. 'The woman is too bold! She'll show our hand for sure!'

Ignatius keeps to himself, trying to slouch and look as pitiful as possible to pass as a slave. With his holy symbol around his neck, he simply prays to Iomedae for protection, a bit afraid of what this endeavor may have in store for him and his "slave" companions.

Disguise: 1d20 ⇒ 2

Unfortunately, the inquisitor's well-bred background is too difficult to hide from others, and he may stick out like a sore thumb as one that doesn't belong.

"Master Johendar, would you be so kind as to rig my slave collar as well?" Ignatius, sporting a humble tunic stands at the ready to be taken in to slavery.

Ignactius takes a moment to consider his options. "Well, I would like to keep my holy symbol. It's wooden, so it shouldn't pose too much of a problem. Eadie, let's stick close - I have some spells that could help you be more effective in combat, should it come to that while we pose as slaves."

The inquisitor then excuses himself to change into grubby slave clothes, placing his gear in the magical mystery box.

Mmmmm..... PI.

Last minute purchase for Iggy:

headband of vast intelligence +2 (Knowledge: Local) - 4000 gp

Ignatius tries to ignore Eadie's questions and focus on the task being given to the pathfinders.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18

He studies Darchana's mannerisms to figure how serious she is being.

Finally, he simply nods. "We won't let you down, madame. We'll put an end to this nefarious spy network."

Gotta be Ernest!

"Lorelendral, Eadie - so good to see you to again." Ignatius enters the room, clearly proud of his new mithral armor, though trying not to appear like he's showing it off.

As he sits down, he watches Eadie's balancing act. "Yes, we're all professionals here, but professional whats, exactly?" He raises an eyebrow and smirks at the fighter.

Hmm, I don't have any Silver Crusaders in the tier. Looks like it'll be the Iggy show of incompetence again.

Ignatius Van Hjorder
PFS#: 64554-9
No Day Job
Initiative: +4
Perception: +9

Also, GM: Iggy has the following ability:

Seize the Initiative (Su) (5/day): Whenever you and your allies roll for initiative, you can grant one ally within 30 feet the ability to roll twice and take either result. This decision is made before results are revealed. You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Wisdom modifier.

So, an ally gets to roll initiative twice and take the higher result. So, who wants to get this bonus?

Ignatius shuffles past August and through the doorway, making sure to leave room for whoever else wants to follow. (possibly drawing an AoO, but I don't think the woman is armed, and she doesn't seem like the type to be proficient with unarmed combat)

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

"She tried to cast a fireball!" he calls out to the others.

He brings his sword around in a powerful arch.

Power Attack: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (10) + 7 - 1 = 16
Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 2 = 8

Judgment of healing is still active. Another 2 hp healed this round.

Iggy winces from the pain of the ice storm. He levels his sword at the woman and calls down a judgment of healing on her. He then trudges through the now-snowy terrain towards the caster and takes a swing.

Attack, Soft Cover: 1d20 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (4) + 7 - 4 = 7
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Fast healing 2.

Ignatius draws his sword as he rushes in, he moves over next to Eadie and attacks the one on the right.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Reflex: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

"I'm still a little hurt, Lore, if you've got any more healing left in you for the day."

Down 8 hp at this point.

Ignatius will gladly take watch with Eadie or whoever else would be willing to sit with him.

Sorry again for my silence today. I was asked late yesterday to travel to lovely, scenic Wendover Nevada to test a student. However, I downloaded the Adventure Zone podcast, and was thoroughly entertained the whole 6 1/2 hour drive here.

Sorry, I had to delete my previous post, hopefully before anyone saw it. It's a Monday.

Ignatius draws his bow and fires a shot at the naga.

Comp. Longbow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

"Hmm, I hadn't thought about that. I guess I figured the dragon there was protecting something a little more vulnerable. Maybe taking a tactical rest before checking this place out is best. Either way, I like your compromised idea, Eadie."

"So, are we going to check out this building, or rest first? I feel alright with clearing this building first - it might prove an excellent place to securely rest."

So, if we're taking votes - I guess I vote for checking this building first.

I actually only needed the first tap after the channel.

"Oh, Lore, I could use some healing, if you could."

"I like your plan Eadie; however, I cannot alter my spells. I know what I know and, well, that's all that I know.""
