Iladora Unfallen's page

I think I will bow out. I'd prefer to play more scenarios with this character rather than speed-level her. Thanks for the game and for bringing me along!

Oh yea, I see that now. He got OHKO'd in the very first fight I was here for, back in June.

Did somebody die before I got here?

Profession (soldier): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21

Yay!

Can I assume that the raise dead and restoration costs will be spread out across the party?

Yes, that's fine with me.

Greatsword Power Attack + Inspire Courage + flanking vs Klarkosh (enemy is grappled): 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 8 + 2 + 2 = 31
Miss chance (High to hit): 1d100 ⇒ 80
Damage + Inspire Courage: 2d6 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (1, 6) + 12 + 2 = 21

Confirm crit: 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 8 + 2 + 2 = 20
Extra damage: 2d6 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (1, 1) + 12 + 2 = 16

Nice!

With the enemy held in place, Iladora reverses grip on her sword and stabs downward.

Greatsword Power Attack vs Klarkosh (enemy is grappled): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
Damage: 2d6 + 12 ⇒ (6, 6) + 12 = 24

...and stabs the tip harmlessly into the stone floor. Good thing her blade is harder than the stone.

Actually, it is cheaper to buy spell casting services than a scroll. You can also use PP to remove the condition if you want to save the cash.

Oh yea. Apparently it's only 1 PP to get a remove blindness/deafness. Lybram doesn't need to spend a spell, Iladora already has plenty of Prestige.

Sword at the ready, Iladora rushes into the room to get within striking distance.

Double move. The movement will provoke an attack of opportunity (if Klarkosh has a melee weapon), but Iladora gets +4 AC against this from Mobility.

So once Lybram is brought back, it looks like all we need to fix me is a scroll of remove blindness/deafness for 375 gp. Iladora has that in her inventory so no problems there.

Cure light wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Cure light wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Ugh. Well, this puts me within 1 HP of full so I'm good with that.

The automaton is down, so unless Klarkosh can create another one in a day you shouldn't have to worry about it.

Really?! I just assumed he could fix it in a day, or at least make it operational.

Nope, at least not unless he's got something special he can do. A construct reduced to 0 HP is considered totally destroyed (like an undead) and has to be remade from scratch.

It's one of the reasons bringing one into combat as a PC is generally not a great idea.

I think we should keep going and try to take down Klarkosh, then rest. We're low on resources but so is he. Since I'm the only one who can't see, you all can still point me to the right square every round (the miss chance will suck though).

"Bird, I will need your eyes until we can get this spell reversed." Iladora calls her own companion to her shoulder and directs it to guide her steps.

Using my own companion rather than Blitz means I can't fail a DC 10 check. So at least that's the movement problem solved.

Last point, because I know it's been a while in real-time since you were there: remember that nice bedroom you found early in your exploration of the level? Look at what you found there.

If you mean these items, I don't think we were ever told what they were. If it was before that, Iladora wasn't here so she wouldn't know about it anyway.

Will spend 6 charges to get me up to 37/44.

Iladora heals a few more of her wounds.

Cure light wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Iladora is permanently blind, so I can't do a whole heck of a lot until we can find a way back to town. I can use my wand on those who need urgent healing, but that's pretty much it.

Iladora turns her head in the direction of the sound of Mrs. Book's voice. "Let's go, Blitz. You'll have to help me get there."

Handle Animal: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Double move.

I apologize, I thought I posted but apparently not. So Blitz's and my way back to the rest of the party is closed now, right?

Oh, yes, sorry.

Handle Animal: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

Iladora places a hand on Blitz's fur and lets him guide her out of the room (to a maximum of a 40-ft double move).

Seemingly given a moment's reprieve, Iladora puts more healing into the wolf.

Cure light wounds vs Blitz: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Iladora pulls out a wand and hopes to bring the wolf back into the fight.

Move action to draw wand, move action to cast on Blitz.

Cure light wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

If I'm blind, would I incur a 50% miss chance for using a wand on Blitz? I have a cure wand but I don't want to risk wasting an action.

Part of her is only too glad to leave Klarkosh behind, as badly injured as she is, although being unable to see makes her vulnerable. She backs away. "I'm blinded, he cast some sort of spell at me."

Double move at half speed (so one move basically) to get back to the room with the others.

No kidding! Fortunately I can't fail a DC 8 Perception.

Iladora's warrior senses are at least enough to let her keep pace with Klarkosh as she follows him down the corridor.

Greatsword Power Attack vs Klarkosh: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
Miss chance (high to hit): 1d100 ⇒ 93
Damage: 2d6 + 12 ⇒ (1, 5) + 12 = 18

Fortitude: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Utterly unable to see, Iladora moves forward and attacks the last place she saw Klarkosh.

Greatsword Power Attack vs Klarkosh: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
50% Miss chance (high to hit): 1d100 ⇒ 10
Damage: 2d6 + 12 ⇒ (5, 4) + 12 = 21

Well this isn't good.

Where does Klarkosh step back to? Is that a hallway behind him?

Will: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21
Hah! I didn't have much hope for that one.

Iladora forces her mind to obey her despite the wave of overwhelming magical fear. The mage has been surprisingly difficult to hit, so Iladora checks her swing for more accuracy.

5' step, attack vs Klarkosh. Will not use Power Attack this round.

Greatsword vs Klarkosh: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22
Damage: 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (5, 3) + 6 = 14

Reflex: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

"It'll have to wait its turn," Iladora says through gritted teeth, never taking her eyes off Klarkosh. She closes the distance again and strikes.

If I can't 5-foot step, this will provoke from the automaton.

Greatsword vs Klarkosh: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13
Damage: 2d6 + 12 ⇒ (1, 5) + 12 = 18

Sure I can do that, I just thought that would put me adjacent to the automaton as well. Moved myself on the map.

No, because that would make Corbrae the only one in range of Klarkosh. I'm harder to hit than she is.

Thanks to the combined efforts of Corbrae and Viridian, Iladora manages to fight through the next wave of electricity.

Greatsword vs Klarkosh: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
Damage: 2d6 + 12 ⇒ (1, 6) + 12 = 19

Thank goodness for Viridian's healing!

Still clinging to consciousness, Iladora swings again at Klarkosh!

Greatsword vs Klarkosh: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
Damage: 2d6 + 12 ⇒ (5, 1) + 12 = 18
Ouch.

Despite being badly injured, Iladora rushes toward Klarkosh and strikes.

I think I screwed up the map, I apologize. Docs is not mobile friendly -.-

Greatsword vs Klarkosh: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Damage: 2d6 + 12 ⇒ (3, 2) + 12 = 17

Iladora waits for the nausea effect to wear off.

Will stay where I am.

Reflex, DC 18: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Iladora staggers further into the room, taking the full force of the lightning damage.

Round 1 of 2 of being nauseated.

Iladora staggers out of the nauseating cloud.

Move action to move 20 ft. If it applies, I will take the damage for being next to the trap (because that's as far as I can go).

Fortitude (DC 18): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Shirt reroll + 1 GM star: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 1 = 8
Double ouch.

Caught completely off-guard by the spell, Iladora inhales a lungful of the noxious fumes. She pulls her sword back out from its sheath, coughing and gagging, but can do little else.

Move action to draw weapon, move 5 feet forward.

Iladora realizes it will probably help to ease tensions if she isn't pointing her sword at the man, so she slides it into its sheath across her back.

Nothing to add here, I'll let the others do the talking.

Looks like all the front-liners have pretty similar AC's, including Blitz (which is awesome!). I'm good with whatever everyone thinks is best, but we may want to just roll off for it. Can anyone not use it?

Iladora swings with her greatsword and stays where she is.

Greatsword Power Attack + Inspire Courage + prayer: 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 8 + 2 + 1 = 22
Damage + Inspire Courage + prayer: 2d6 + 12 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4, 3) + 12 + 2 + 1 = 22
Ignores hardness 20 or less (adamantine).

Moved Blitz on the map for ya.

Iladora leans to one side to give Viridian just enough room to shoot his electric bolt over her shoulder, then thrusts her greatsword forward.

Greatsword Power Attack vs creature: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
Damage: 2d6 + 12 ⇒ (6, 2) + 12 = 20
Ignores hardness 20 or less (adamantine).

Unfortunately, her movement causes the strike to be completely off-balance.

Iladora steps forward and brings her sword down in a two-handed chop.

Greatsword Power Attack vs blue: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
Damage: 2d6 + 12 ⇒ (2, 1) + 12 = 15
Ignores hardness 20 or less (adamantine).

Not sure if we can stand in the cluttered areas on the map so I put myself in front of Merisiel.

Greatsword (Power Attack) vs red: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18
Damage: 2d6 + 12 ⇒ (2, 3) + 12 = 17
Ignores hardness 20 or less (adamantine).

After receiving Merisiel's assurance that the door is neither trapped nor locked, Iladora pushes it open with her sword at the ready and her raptor companion perched on her shoulder.

Knowledge (nature): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17

Iladora also doesn't recognize the creature.

You could also look for Pathfinder compatible AP's from 3rd-party publishers, or converted D&D campaigns. Paizo's signature 15-level adventure path is not something D&D has ever really emphasized (and for a few years now even Paizo has gotten away from those), but there are some out there.

Great question, unfortunately I don't know of any. There are a bunch of ongoing projects to convert 1e adventures to 2e (unofficially of course), but I don't think very many are going the other way.

I forced convinced my own IRL group to play 2e at least for a little while, I'm running them through Strength of Thousands right now. I like the system but it certainly takes some getting used to, and the whole legacy/remaster thing doesn't help either. (I totally get why they did it, it just introduces some extra growing pains.)

If nobody wants to play 2e, and you really don't want to force the issue, you're probably better off sticking to 1e AP's. If you've already played them all, firstly holy crap that's amazing, but secondly... your group might have a decision to make.

Having very little luck with her bow, Iladora fires off a single shot then moves in closer.

Longbow 1 + Inspire Courage + Favored Enemy (evil outsider) vs div (enemy has soft cover): 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 8 + 2 + 2 = 25
Damage + Inspire Courage + Favored Enemy (evil outsider): 1d8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 + 2 = 9

Fortitude (DC 16): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Unfortunately no, just mundane arrows. Pretty terrible luck that those damage rolls aren't reversed.
