Ingolf's page

"Certainly!", Ingolf replied to the druid. "Daruthek has fouled this temple with his blasphemy, but the taint can be cleansed. It shall be restored to its proper role as a place for the true worship of the Wind and the Waves."

I'm going to bow out of the next module. In truth I'm suffering from pandemic fatigue and have found my energy level sagging recently.

I've enjoyed this module and wish you all the best with the next one.

Ingolf panted, his rage subsiding, "Now this temple can be returned to the proper worship of Gozreh." The spirits retreated from view, their work done.

He rummaged around in his pack for a treat for Ebba, "Very well done!"

Ingolf guided Ebba to start rdging around the cultist on the enemy flank. He started to try to smash this one into oblivion. The spirits didn't seem to attack as vigorously this time.

Morningstar, big-game hunter, hatred, rage, bless: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 6 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 27
Bludgeoning Damage, rage: 1d6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 1 + 2 = 8

Slam: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
Negative energy damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Sorry to hear that. Take the time you need.

Ingolf barely noticed the trident strike against him. He continued to furiously smash at the cultists, with his spirits joining in to deadly effect.

Morningstar, big-game hunter, rage, bless: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 6 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 23
Bludgeoning Damage, rage: 1d6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 2 = 4

Slam: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
Negative energy damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Critical hit?: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Extra crit damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Attacking magenta first, then indigo.
Ingolf's 10 rage temporarily hit points absorb most of the trident hit.

AC 22 with rage and Shield.

I can never remember what Opportune Advice does, in any case.

When Ebba cleared the gap, Ingolf drew his morningstar and flew into a rage and furiously brought it down on one of the cultists.

Morningstar, big-game hunter, rage, bless (magenta): 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 17
Bludgeoning Damage, rage: 1d6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 2 = 5

Slam, flank (magenta): 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 2 = 19
Negative energy damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

AC 22 with rage and Shield.

Ingolf recovered and urged Ebba to jump across to the platform with the enemy,

Fortitude: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Fortitude re-roll (Hero Point): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

The dice roller is not my friend. :(

Ingolf too is momentarily stunned by the explosion.

Stregth: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Ingolf was blown off Ebba's back. He got back up and climbed back onto Ebba's back.

Two move actions to get back into the saddle.

Ingolf gave a potion to Ebba to drink, "It will help protect you." He kept Tonny's other vial at in hand, ready to drink just before combat.

Ingolf is giving an infusion of Ablative Barrier to Ebba, and keeping the infusion of Shield for himself. The action economy for Ebba to drink a potion of shield at the start of combat is rather awkward.

When they neared the enemy, he recited a blessing of Gozreh on everyone.

Casting Bless on the party. When we see the enemy, he'll drink the infusion of Shield.

@Adrianna: Ingolf doesn't have too much else to use his 1st lvl slots for, so he might as well cast Bless. His other spells are charm animal, cure light wounds, liberating command and obscuring mist. He can cast 6/day.

Ingolf will Bless everyone.

I'm not the keeper of the wand, so I don't know how many charges are left.

Ingolf asked everone, "Who needs healing before we fight Daruthek?" He made sure that Ebba was healed up to full with Split's wand.

Wand of CLW (Ebba): 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

She was only down 3, but we shouldn't be going into the final showdown with even minor injuries if we can help it. I want to make sure that no-one else forgets to heal up.

The gnome stepped forward and introduced himself, "Hello good lady! My name is Ingolf, and this is Ebba, my faithful steed! I am ready to finish our task and stop Daruthek from unleashing the hurricane."

Is there anything that we need to do first?

Ingolf finally convinced Ebba to hurry back to the others, only to find that the battle was over. Realizing what Tonny was trying to do, he tried to insert his polearm between the bars of the cage and pry the the prison open.

Strength: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18

Ingolf isn't trained in any of those skills.

Ingolf continued to calm Ebba down.

Final round of fear spell.

Ingolf tried to talk to Ebba, "The bad man cast a spell on you. to make you run away. It's OK, you're safe now."

"What are you doing too that unfortunate woman? How dare you pretend to pretend to act in Gozreh's name!"

He started to recite a prayer to bless his allies.

Starting to cast Bless on the party.

Initiative: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (7) - 1 = 6

I think Splits the Leaves is the only one who can use the Pearl of Power.

Perception (DC 20 check): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23

Now that he wasn't worried about the spiders, Ingold searched the area. He called out to the others, "Hey, there's a niche behind this wall. There's three sealed jars here, and a magic pearl!"

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24 Got the natural 20 he needed!"

After examining it for a minute he added, "It's a pearl of power, a very nice one!"

3rd lvl Pearl of Power.

Ingolf moved up and stabbed at one of the spiders with his polearm, "Now I can reach you!"

Lucerne Hammer (red), big-game hunter: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 1 = 24
Piercing Damage: 1d10 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27

Ingolf put away his morningstar, since the spiders were too high got him to reach with it. "I see them!"

Don't have the actions to attack this round; Ingolf didn't have his Lucerne Hammer ready.

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30

Ingolf said, "Hold on, I'm sure I have that here somewhere." He spent a few minutes searching, cursing under his breath at the malevolent spirits , who loved to rearrange important items like this. Finally he produced the brass key, "Aha!"

He examined the double doors of the gate exclaiming, "The doors are trapped — good thing we have the proper key, which bypasses that!" He inserted the key and turned it, unlocking the Wind Gate.

@GM: Did Ebba take any damage from the ice shards?

Ingolf had a final look around the chamber to make sure they hadn't missed anything.

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26

He chimed in, "Yup, let's go. One more passage off the platform, I think."

Spellcraft (wand 1): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Spellcraft (wand 1): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Spellcraft (headband): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Ingolf examined the magic items to determine their properties, but was unsuccessful, "Sorry, I make out what they do. I'll have to try again after a night's rest"

Ingolf unleashed his pent-up anger on the elemental, urging Ebba forward and striking at the guardian.

+1 kukri, big-game hunter, rage, bless: 1d20 + 7 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 = 16
Slashing damage, rage: 1d6 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 3 = 6

Slam: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
Negative energy damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

No flanking bonus added, since elementals are usually immune.

AC 18 against medium sized creature.

Ingolf requests, "Adriana, can you step around the guardian so I can attack it?"

Delaying; I'd prefer not to provoke an AoO to get into melee.

Ingolf declared, "Let's make this fast!" He recited a prayer to Gozreh and moved forward to the edge of the nearest pool.

Casting Bless on the party.

Spells cast: 4/6

After the threat of the haunt was over, Ingolf recited a prayer and examined the orbs, but was unable to determine their properties.

Casting Detect Magic.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

After giving the others a chance to examine them, he stowed them in his haversack and moved to the door at the eastern end of the room. "Ready!"

Presumably Splits can use the wand to cure Adrianna.

Do we need to make one Fort save or two?

Fort: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21 3 NL fire damage.

Fort (vs staggered): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Ingolf battled with the furnace doors, channeling the power of his god. It was obvious that there were unnatural forces at work here! "Begone, foul spirit!"

CLW: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Let me know if I have to roll to hit as well.

Spells cast: 3/6

Ingolf asked, "Where should I apply the positive energy?" He intoned a prayer and touched the spot he was directed to.

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Ingolf can cast create water as well.

Is green the remaining enemy?

Ingolf rode into the room, fueled with rage, and attacked the surprised cultist.

+1 Kukri, big-game hunter, rage: 1d20 + 7 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 1 + 2 = 24
slashing damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Slam: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Negative energy damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Ingolf waited for Jonah to move forward and take his shot. He didn't want to ruin the surprise by moving in prematurely.

"Sounds good to me," Ingolf agreed, urging Ebba onto the platform. He relied to Tonny, "Well, all that climbing worked up an appetite. For some reason, I could really go for some bananas right now."

Ingolf looked across at the distant platform, "I suppose I could try. It's a long way though!"

+4 Climb and +4 swim.

He tried to spot any guide ropes that could be use to move the platform.

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12 standard bad rolling :(

[ooc]Ingolf knows Mage Hand, although that only has a range of 35 ft, and a weight limit of 5 lbs.

Since we're resting, Ingolf will take either one more charge of the wand of CLW, or a CLW spell, so heal up to full (including hp gained from the rest).

Ingolf woke from his slumber, refreshed. He looked at the weather and agreed with Jonah, "Todays the day — time to put a stop to this heresy!"

Ingolf would be fine with going back to the upper temple, assuming we can do that.

Does everyone still remember what extracts they have?

To be honest I've lost track.

"I can keep going if necessary," Ingolf told his companions.

No knowledge religion here.

Ingolf availed himself of some healing from Splits' healing wand.

Wand of CLW (4 charges): 4d8 + 4 ⇒ (6, 4, 4, 4) + 4 = 22

He replied to Jonah's suggestion, "I could certainly use a rest. I've depleted my spells for the day."

If we're not resting, he should use another charge from the wand.

Ingolf breathed a sigh of relief when the last elemental was vanquished. With the mention of a possible explosion he moved back. "I'm afraid I've used all my magic for today, and am sorely in need of some more healing."

Ingolf is down 28 hp, even after Adriana's healing.

Ingolf could use some healing.

Ingolf gritted his teeth and waited for the elemetal to attack again. He prayed for Gozreh's blessing for himself and his allies.

Casting Bless on the party.

Ingolf was being worn down by the steady attacks of the elemental, which he was ill-equipped to counter. He recited a healing prayer to keep himself on his feet.

Cure Light Wounds (Ingolf): 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Ingolf prepared for the next attack pass, and swung at the marauding elemental. But he couldn't get the timing right.

Readied +1 Kukri, big-game hunter: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 1 = 11
slasing damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Only one of Ingolf's 5 attack rolls this fight has been higher than a 3. :(

Ingolf advised his companion, "Ebba, wait to attack the elemental when it makes its next attack!"

When it came in for its next pass he shouted, "Now, Ebba!", and struck with his kukri.

Readied +1 Kukri, big game hunter: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 1 = 11
Slashing Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Do I need a roll to get Ebba to ready an attack?
Handle Animal, bonded mount: 1d20 + 12 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 12 + 4 = 28

Ingolf swung at the spirit again, "You're the one meddling with forces you should leave alone!"

+1 Kukri, Big game Hunter: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 1 = 22
Slashing Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Reflex: 1d20 ⇒ 3

Ingolf's muscles spasmed as the electricity coursed through him. He grimly swung again, but had little success.

+1 Kukri, big-game hunter: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 1 = 11
slasing damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
