Io Hammerhand's page

GM Zinou, would there be any objection to my trading to a different character? I just leveled to 3, but am reconsidering direction and don't want to slow us down...

Works for me!

Of those, I haven't played The Dalsine Affair or The Night March of Kalkamedes...I've played the rest.

Hmmm...I've played quite a few...I'll see what I can put together.

Chronicle looks great! Thanks so much for running it!

I'd be up for anything I haven't run before. :)

Neither did I! Fastest level EVAAAR!!!

Personally, I'd much rather do another adventure with this group than continue on one we already solved. I was super surprised how quickly that happened! I have played this before, and had NO IDEA there was a back door to that! Thanks for running it! :)

Io looks around the room for additional clues as to what this man was doing down here.

"Ah dornt think thes is a spellbook necromancer. He's playin' wi' th' corpses wi' his chemicals," Io observes as he looks at the beakers, vats, and vials.

"But th' fact 'at we foond a live man whaur thaur shoods be only dead makes me think we foond uir culprit."

perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24

Io runs over to the alchemist lobbing flasks at them.

"Yer debts ur due. Dranngvit has sent me tae collect," the dwarf says as he swings his longhammer in a powerful overhand stroke.

MW Dwarven Longhammer (cold iron)(two-handed): 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 4 + 2 = 222d6 + 3 ⇒ (5, 1) + 3 = 9

Io runs into the room, risking a swipe from the zombie guarding the door, in order to get in a better position to wield his longhammer.

He orders his pet to attack, as well.

claw attack2: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 151d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

"Careful, elf. Th' beest hasnae eaten in a while," Io says with a sidelong glance at Amarandlon. The dwarf's peevishness with the elf keeps him from hitting again.

MW Dwarven Longhammer (cold iron)(two-handed): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 72d6 + 3 ⇒ (5, 1) + 3 = 9

Seeing himself surrounded, Io brings his dwarven longhammer to bear, but it the tight quarters it is difficult for him to swing it effectively.

"Gie them, Kradvid!" he calls to his animal companion, and the roc screeches and lashes out to the one at its west.

claw attack2: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 41d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Io scowls at the gate.

"Try some fancy magic oan it ur let's go aroond," he suggests.

Io looks nervously at the trap, having already established that they did not have a group member who could disable traps.

"Whit noo? Shood we go aroond, or any volunteers tae turn intae a gate ornament?"

I took the liberty of moving everyone's token forward.

Io waves his hand in front of him as the cloud of ancient dust dissipates.

"There's naethin' 'at can be done fur ye, boyo. Naethin short of changin' tae a dwarf, 'at is..."

Having no trouble in the darkness, Io carefully makes his way forward.

perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

"Obvioosly...i meant...after 'at," Io shrugs.

Sorry...I thought we had already investigated the whole room. Yes, we should keep going if there's more. I'll take the wand...though I suspect most times I'll have better ways to "disrupt undead"

Io finishes exploring the hidden crypt, then turns to the others.

"Noo what? Ah dornt think we want tae try th' other statues unless someone fancies disarmin' th' traps first. If nae, we could try the next duir tae th' eest."

After the others descend, Io moves closer to the statue of Pharasma.

"Ah have foond 'at secrit doors always lead tae secrets. Let's see whit thes place hides," he says as he attempts to push the statue to the side.

str check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

Io points out the cleverly-hidden secret door to the others as they descend.

Assuming everyone wants to come down...

Io pulls out some rope as the others speak.

"If we hud some smaller companions they could fly doon on mah pal Kradvid. But it looks like rope is gonnae have tae do."

The dwarf ties off his rope and descends.

take 10 climb on knotted rope.

Io sneers at Amarandlon and the elf's haughty demeanor.

"Typical elven superiority complex, Ah see..."

Examining the large cathedral and majestic stonework, the dwarf says "Thes is th' ossuary's grand cathedral, dedicated tae Pharasma, though thes place is much different frae th' gothic Pharasmin cathedrals ay th' modern day."

Searching each of the statues, the dwarf adds "These ur aw trapped by a shockin' trap, except th' statue carved frae black representin' Pharasma...seems tae trigger somethin' else. These trap release electric energy when someain tooches it."

knowledge religion: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

I was meaning for Kradvid to attack the lower left critter, but I think whatever he could reach is fine.

Io swings his longhammer powerfully at the creature on the right, using the hammer's reach to maintain some distance.

"I'll tak' th' a one oan th' reit...Kradvid, get'em!"

I will be taking a Fall Break trip with my family to Grand Canyon and Mesa Verde.

I'll likely not be able to post from Thursday to Sunday, so feel free to bot me if I'm up!

I have a wand of CLW, and can also use them without problem. I'm happy to hold them. If you want to just roll your own healing rolls out of combat, just assume you asked Io and used your wand on you.

Zinou, thanks for all the extras you give us...the RP and details are very well done, and it is much appreciated!

Io glares at the portal ahead.

"You're sayin' 'at if we go in thar, we might be trapped wit' undeid an' cannae get out? Whit kind o' suicide mission is this?" the dwarf asks grumpily.

Still, the dwarf doesn't seem about to turn back. His animal companion, a young roc named Kradvid, hops alongside him. The dwarf removes a freshly killed rabbit from a bag and throws it on the ground, which the bird promptly devours.

"Aam sure our wizard friend'll want tae hold th' chime," he says with a gesture at Amarandlon.

For marching order, we should probably have Callin and Hasshin front row. I'm a good 2nd line guy since I have a reach weapon and a flying companion. We can either have Jiggo or Amarandlong on the 2nd line with me and the other at the rear. As for door opening procedures, I'm not seeing a trap spotter, but I have the highest perception score (+9). I guess each door I'll take 20 on and then have Callan open it once I'm back in line?

Io watches the man intensely, unsure whether to trust him. In the end, he sees no alternative and follows the others.

dotting to hide this thread...

A dwarf with an intense gaze enters the room and looks the other Pathfinders over.

He carries a fine dwarven longhammer and bears medium armor with a dwarven boulder helm, as well as the holy symbol of the obscure dwarven deity Dranngvit around his neck.

"Io Hammerhand," he tells the barkeep, "at yer service."

"I'll 'ave yer finest dwarven ale--no other race makes it like the dwarves!--but ye'll do me a favor an' nae bring me a second mug. Me drunken dwarven paladin brother's made me recognize temperance as a virtue..." he adds.

Since this is a module, 10 days is not too crazy...just try to check in as best you can!

Crypt of the Everflame and Godsmouth Heresy.

ether work for me, question so now that i have 3 xp i level right?

You can be either lvl 1 or 2.

But the nice thing I like is you earn 3 xp. :)

I'm up for either. :)

I'm always a big fan of the evergreen modules like Crypt of the Everflame and Godsmouth Heresy.

Aside from that, there are plenty I haven't played, especially from the earlier seasons.

But if we can't find something, you guys are welcome to keep going without me.

Sorry, I've also played both of those. :(

I don't want to stop the rest of you from playing something together, though.

Chronicle looks great...thanks again for running it!

I'd have to step aside for Voice in the Voice, which I'm currently in with another character.

I haven't played those last three, and would be in for them (just leveling to 2, FYI).

But I don't want to slow you guys down if you want to continue with Voice in the Void. If you play that, I'm happy to step aside.

Io joins with the others and provides his notes, including his observation of the beauty of the natural caverns.

Not sure what I can add to the last two posts!

Io carefully makes his way across the log.

"Brin' it on, ye sick twisted beast," he taunts the minotaur.

acrobatics: 1d20 - 3 ⇒ (18) - 3 = 15 double move

Trying to draw the minotaur's attention away from the fallen Janira, Io yells "Lae th' lassie alone, ye big brute!" and throws a javelin in the creature's general direction.

javelin: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 71d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

I had already placed a mini for the pet...it's hovering over the river after moving.

"Ye've a debt to repay, beastie!" Io yells from the cave's exit as they charge forward. "We've come ta collect!"

He rushes forward, his legs carrying him faster than any dwaft could run. travel domain

He calls for his animal companion, Kradvid, to assist their mentor.

handle animal: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Io stops examining the cavern as he hears word of potential enemies.

"Aye...we can check it out," he nods. "West first," he agrees with Callan.

Io's obvious reverence for the natural beauty of this cave makes it clear he intends no harm. The dwarf seems in awe of the place.

diplomacy aid: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (16) - 2 = 14

Io, not one for negotiations, folds his arms across his chest and waits for the others. His roc lands next to him and the dwarf feeds it a piece of jerky.

"Amazing subterranean beauty," Io nods as they partake of the wonders of the cavern.

"Oi! What's that?" he whispers as they view the figure in the water.

"Not related ta Dranngvit, that's fer certain..." Io muses as he examines the carvings.

knowledge religion: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Once to the other side of the chasm, Io looks around for anything that might help Isaac cross more easily.

"Nae sure a tightrope would be any easier," the dwarf responds.

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Io frowns at the pit.

"Well, 'les yer prepared ta use yer magical voodoo ta transport us all 'cross this pit, we best get climbin'," Io responds to the wizard.

He promptly climbs down the knotted rope and back up the other side.

climb: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (19) - 2 = 17
climb: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (19) - 2 = 17

That's fine, take it.

Io looks primarily concerned about Janira as they enter the cave.

"'Ope the lass'll be alright..." he observes.
