Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"Delighted you could join us," Jack grumbles.

Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Yeah, bot Azor until we can find a replacement.

Coming soon to a campaign near you: Rynjin GMPCing all five characters, all by by himself!

Rynj pls

Jack curses silently as he fires a crossbow bolt at the same damn guy.
Third time's the charm...

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
1d8 ⇒ 3
RNG PLZZZZZZZZZZ

Trembling with fury, Jack shouts over his shoulder, "AZOR! NOW WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT TIME TO GET OVER YOUR LITTLE PANIC ATTACK!"
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"...Alright, finish him off."

Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"That's fine by me. I was starting to get hungry again anyway."
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Jack tries to shoot the same guy again.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

grr
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Jack comes around the corner of the building and fires an arrow at the bandit closest to Sun Xiao.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

The arrow inexplicably shatters in midair, causing splinters to land harmlessly at the bandit's feet.
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Hush.
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Jack casts Mind Thrust on the guy next to him.

casting defensively: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
damage: 1d10 ⇒ 4

Then he moves to join his allies.
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Jack fires an arrow at one of the guys in the cabin (the one I marked with a red circle), then ducks away from the window.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13
1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

and another one bites the dust....

While silently cursing Azor's cowardice, Jack fires an arrow into the open window.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP

Welp, that puts me at 2 hp. This would be an excellent time for Azor to come back...

Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Jack casts Inertial Armor and draws his longbow.
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Jack creates a low growling sound behind Chloe.

"Try to harm her again, and I'll smash this door to splinters!"

Intimidation: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

Kn. Local: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
From now on, whenever I make a crappy knowledge roll like this and we're not in immediate danger or something, just assume I'll use Call to Mind.

Kn. Local 2: Electric Localoo: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11
>:I

Jack does the thing where he detects psionics and stuff.
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"Well, let's move on, shall we? Wouldn't want Chloe's werewolf husband to come after us as well."
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

I deed eeeeet!

Jack scans the area for anything the bandits may have left behind.

Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

A werewolf curse? Yes, that's completely believable, Chloe. Perhaps I can help to make it more convincing...

Jack casts Create Sound, creating the sound of a howling wolf from a point 25 feet behind him.

Jack takes out his composite longbow and prepares to shoot the bandit closest to Chloe if they try anything funny.

Readied action

Didn't know bandits were into the whole diplomacy thing.

Have fun with that. :\

Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

So really, did you wanna try ninja-ing one of these guys, or are we just gonna Ghulassen it up and attack them head-on?

Because I can do a thing to make one of them take a penalty on perception checks, but not much more than that.

Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Does snow count? If so, we may have a bit of a problem...

Ladies first.

Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

I should make sure they aren't using and magical or psionic equipment.

Jack casts Detect Psionics on the bandits while making an effort to suppress its psionic displays.

Concentration: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Jack follows the tracks. If he sees their owners he tries to stay out of sight.

survival: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"Would anyone mind if I took the longbow and arrows?"
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

I guess we'll just move on then?

Unless you guys wanna stare at it and reflect on the untimely death of our "friend" or something...
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

So Azor didn't find anything suspicious?
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Jack uses detect psionics on the body.

Jack throws his flask of Fire at the elemental.

SURPRISE!: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Well, here goes nothing...

Jack starts walking across the stream as carefully and quietly as possible
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Jack takes out his flask of Alchemist's Fire and directs Sun to do the same.

"Follow me."

He approaches the edge of the stream slowly and quietly, keeping plenty of distance from the snowman.

It's possible that they could be awoken by movement on the ice. It would be nice to know that before we set foot on it.

He picks up a few pebbles and tosses them toward the middle of the stream.
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"Then let's not waste another moment!"

Jack springs to his feet and starts heading back to the river, only momentarily checking to make sure the others are following.

sorry but I'd really like to get this thing going
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"We've wasted enough time already. Besides, if my plan works, you shouldn't have to transfer wounds or use any psionic power until we're across the river."
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"Well I did say it correctly the first time, sweetie. Though I must say I'm flattered that the only flaw you could find in my plan was a slight grammatical error."
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"Then we will have no choice but to fight. However, I believe that the Alchemist Fire will give us the advantage we need."
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"I have an idea" Jack says, as he starts drawing a crude map in the snow of the path and the stream, then a small circle representing the snowman trap.

"The trap was not activated until Ghulassen came within 15 feet of it. If we keep our distance and circle around it, we can avoid setting it off, which should allow us to safely cross the river without alerting the ice elementals."

"Furthermore, Sun Xiao and I each have a flask of Alchemist's Fire; if we spring the trap by accident, or the elementals are alerted to our presence by some other means, we can ignite them immediately and turn the battle in our favor!"

hue

but seriously is there any way we could go treasure hunting or something so that we won't have spent the whole day sitting and staring at the ground?
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Can we do some grinding? :P
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

I only have 4 power points total, so I tend to burn through them pretty quickly. I used one for mage inertial armor, and another for an energy ray, which missed. I'm starting to think that wasn't the best offensive power I could've taken. :I

Aside from that, my crossbow is my best means of offense right now. I do have Bolt, which gives me some slightly better ammo. It might be the better option for sheer point-to-possible-attacks ratio.

In any case I've got 2 points left, so I'm fine with trying again today if you guys are.
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"So should we just try to fight those elementals again? Or maybe find another way across the stream? Azor and I won't be much use if we run out of energy in the middle of the fight."
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

I need 4 healing. And it's probably still morning or early afternoon - we didn't exactly cover a lot of ground today.
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

"The only way forward is through those elementals. I think we can handle them as long as nobody tries to recklessly charge at them."

"In the meantime, perhaps we should rest for the day. Azor can heal us as much as possible, and then by tomorrow morning he and I will have replenished our psionic energy reserves."
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Jack hesitantly puts his hand on Chloe's shoulder.

"There was nothing we could have done for him." Probably.
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

Jack speaks up after taking a moment to catch his breath.

"Perhaps we could look for another path across the stream? Otherwise we may have to find some help against those things."
Baby, It's Cold Outside-a Reign of Winter PbP
Male Elf Psion 1 | HP DEAD/10 | AC 17 | Fort +1, Ref +3, Will +1 | Init +3 | CMD 14

To wherever we camped last night. Not much sense in going any further than that.
