Jidhuun's page

Suppose the paralyzation is permanent.

Jidhuun continues to be stunned...

Happy holidays and New years all

Jiduun strikes the monster once more before she is hit by some strange streams of every type of energy except the one she is resistant to which not only cause considerable amount of pain but also cause her to vomit, and seize up.

Jidhuun realizes this will most likely be her last attack before the guard arrive, 'Thanks for bringing the guards gang. I was getting worried that this might have been lonely.'

She lunges with her vicious weapon but this time, she does not invoke her smite, and she intentionally aims to draw blood before her hellcat stealth allows her to vanish once more as she steps up.

It matters not the form you take, pain will rock you to your spirit.

Jidhuun barely blinks as Rosuc changes to the nightmarish snake creature, she merely answers the change with another relentless attack.

** spoiler omitted **

Alexia helped me with the build of Jidhuun and wow, if I had to fight Jidhuun as any of my other characters I think they would cry. She is horrifying.

It matters not the form you take, pain will rock you to your spirit.

Jidhuun barely blinks as Rosuc changes to the nightmarish snake creature, she merely answers the change with another relentless attack.

Or he'll run from me... Some are not worth the pain.

Jidhuun appears with another thrust of her vicious pike in a blink as Rosuc hurries to open the door and rush out, he is half dressed, but the advantage of being invisible spared him some awkwardness.

"My life is on the line but at least "I'm" doing what must be done.

Jidhuun follows him out, and ...

Pain makes the strong stronger...

Jidhuun fastens her grip to her pike feeling the pins and needles sensation of the vicious magically corruption emitting from it. She then silently without a word strikes in the name of Zon Kuthon, though she is wordless and silent, only the air whistles as her pike strikes out at the invisible "Rosuc."

To Rosuc, the attack isn't the most disturbing part, it was the look on a small girls face in the instant of the moment. Whether he believes in the divine or not, her eyes were pools of madness, pain, and torment, and during that instant whatever dwell in those pools, reached out and took him.

Cookies, eggs, milk, and a loaf of bread... where the hell is everyone? Cookies, eggs, milk, and a load of bread.

So cue the scene where we're supposed to slay this thing, is anyone with me at the moment? Or is Jidhuun literally the only one present for this throw down? Otherwise this is going to be a short fight as the Rakshasa literally pulverizes me.

If Jidhuun realizes she is alone in her endeavor she quaffs her elixir of shadows (bumping her stealth to +36) and moves into position (about 15') from the new Rosuc, drawing her boarding pike, and placing her Bane upon her weapon.

All the while, thinking, 'Cookies, eggs, milk, and a loaf of bread.'

"This is probably the right house." Jidhuun says casting see invisibility and opening the door still trying to stealth as to try and catch anyone still unaware.

Jidhuun stealths closer to eavesdrop on the two.

Jidhuun continues to sit, completely oblivious it seems to anything out of the ordinary. "Nervous? Why wouldn't they be? They are obviously nervous their jokes will be flops... Waiting waiting waiting, waiting over here."

Whoop? Where are we headed?" Jidhuun takes a moment before disappearing with her hellcat stealth and begins tailing Rosuc and the stranger. She takes extreme care to use cover and distance to improve her chances of going unnoticed and will even imbibe her stealth elixir if she must pick up the pace to keep up with them. If she can afford it, Jidhuun gathers Rex with a knowingly impatient wink and a tilt of her head.

"Tess" kills time in various ways like playing silly games alone or dozing every now and then. A lot of the time she spends trying to judge if one more drink is going to impair her judgement at the wrong moment.

Waiting around for one person is so dull. Tess repeatedly thinks to herself.

"Just don't get too carried away with it."

Good luck, and get well soon!

Jiduun, or 'Tess' will sit at a table or booth along the wall and watch from there. Before arriving she will take some time to change her hair to black, dawn the attire of the Black Rooks mercenary company and complete the disguise with a nasty scar in the shape of an "x" across her nose and eyes.

No reason to skulk about...yet

"That is a lot of effort for some stuff that wont help us..." Tess sighs.

I keep forgetting inquistor bane is different from normal bane. Well... if we steal another 10k we can buy one +2 bane all legit like?

Tess pinches Rorimac's arm in return for the slap, a little bit harder than playful but she laughs innocently enough, "Nice moves! I didn't even sense you at work. We might make a heck of a team yet. Look at this haul."

At Alexia's dispassionate information her smile fades, "I've studied magic quite a bit and I think you might be a little too pessimistic here. Scrying only works on creatures, and locate object only senses well-known items which I doubt generic bane blades mass produced for war are familiar to anyone, even the maker. Even so, an 'attempt' is the best they'll ever do given the size of the city. Not to mention, those spell names are boring, who is going to waste their time casting them? But let's start putting your mind at ease and put some distance between us and these guys. We still have scrolls to collect and holy water to gather. Where to next?" Tess collects her belongings as her lips curl into a distant smile. "If you're extra worried still after we take care of things, we'll ask for guidance from den mother and do as she advises. I will bet she doesn't have us put them back for fear of the law abiding Abadars coming for them."

Bane bypasses all that nonsense doesn't it?

"How'd we do?" Tess asked between breaths as she returned to where the group had gathered, tugging at her sleeves and changing her appearance back to the familiar faced halfling she had introduced herself as yesterday evening. "Did the distraction work well enough to get what we needed?"

As soon as the smoke begins to dissipate Jiduun runs the way she came giggling and laughing. If no one actively pursues her, she turns and waves farewell and disappears around a corner.

Jiduun literally hid, +26 stealth with concealment granted by the smoke, otherwise +16 stealth with the ability to hide in plain sight. If the captain is still able to pinpoint Jidhuun and grab her, she doesn't resist at all other than to pretend to try and pick up the smokestick she dropped.

The little girl laughs as she runs pulls away from the mage's grasp, seemingly thrilled at the prospect that he might be playing a game with her. She quickly scrambles on all fours under the wagon with smoke spilling out around her. Once the girl is fully out of sight, the laughter stops.

Once Jidhuun is beneath the wagon she drops the smokestick on the ground beneath the wagon and hides wedging herself up inside the undercarriage frame.

A distraction huh?

"One distraction coming up! Tess whispered back to the magical message.

Tess springs up, drops her gear, and pulls a smoke stick from her backpack. "Watch my stuff, and don't lose it." she cheers as she runs off to make a round about way of approaching the army of guards.

As soon as she is in line of sight of the guards she begins skipping and laughing utilizing her little girl disguise the best way she knows how. Tess draws on the memory of what the other girls at the orphanage looked like when they were having fun while Tess was often fending off bullies... or bullying others. When she is almost upon the guards she strikes up the smoke stick and begins running about the guards giggling and laughing.

Perception 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Tess doesn't overhear the call for a distraction. She just rubs her chin and scrunches her brow in deep thought.

"Kidnappings again are something difficult to pull off with such little time."

"Well, good luck with your plan then." Tess says furrowing her brow.

"I'm sorry, this place is just too small and there is a small army out front, let alone whomever is inside. I can lie and sneak with the best of them, but they are practically standing shoulder to shoulder over there. The risk of getting found out is just too great. I'll just come with you and support whatever your plan is between here and the gate."

"A disguise serves many purposes, but I am at a loss of who I should pretend to be. Who is my height and would be granted free access to the weapons inside those wagons?"

Jidhuun is waiting a few minutes before heading in unless we abandon this idea too. Though she will start altering her disguise to that of a small adolescent girl.

"It doesn't look like anyone is checking the stock here, they are just loadin up the boxes. Maybe none will know until days or maybe weeks, and surely Mistress will have waved off methods for locating the weapons by then, especially if we give them to her for the sole purpose off blackmarketing them. "

"That's great, while you all work on that complicated plan, I'll dip into the warehouse, look around, and then pop out with what we need. If we fail to get the ledger we'll just make sure we dump the weapons after the job's done in a discrete location. Once the diviners locate their goods they'll be hard pressed to justify spending more money to come after the most recent wielders... maybe?"

"So who is pretending to be the inspector that will forge the revisions and who is going to engage the captain with bribe?"

Consider this a test run for our party's abilities.

Dumb question then, disregard.

"I can see the magically hidden things easily enough, leave that to me. I might even be able to get into the warehouse unseen, even with a pesky wizard, but I don't have a method of relaying the information of what I see without giving up my possible presence; they might be able to hear me but they still probably couldn't find me. Not really sure how long it might take to look over all the stuff in there and grab up what we need for today." Jidhuun tugs on her sleeves and changes her outfit to match the uniform of the guards. "Not enough time to really put on another disguise if we plan to move quickly so I'll just have to be extra careful not to lose this one by drinking one of my elixirs before heading in." She then casts see invisibility and gives a once over of the scene to see anything ethereal or invisible.

Status

So how do we want to handle the stealth rolls? Should I roll for every move action I make, will the gm take that on, or will one roll by either be sufficient? If I'm rolling should I add the distance difficulty modifier into the roll?

Hide 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (6) + 26 = 32 DC22 for anyone in our group that is watching me

Depot seconded, here. I plan on slipping in stealthy like taking the first opportunity to take a peek at the books o tracking what's in stock. Editing the books, and then editing the actual stock. If it works it will buy us a few days before anyone might notice the discrepancy.

I'd be up for robbing a wagon, and to keep this rolling that's exactly what Jidhuun will do prior to meeting at designated Rakshasa killing location.

Alright, bees might work. Ill get some ointment to ward off bees on me.

For being my first run, I don't really know how everyone else works and how Jidhuun plays her in her role. I plan on hitting the Rakshasa with a dimensional anchor spell and then focus on killing the rakshasa

Holy weapons = negative levels, though...

Ah, good point. I'll use tongs to pick them up and hand them to you.

Yeah, let's nab us a few disposable holy weapons!

"A barmaid with weapons? I like the sounds of that."

"Or not open. Hours of operation is of little consequence."

"Soo, wait, where do they keep those?" Tess asks holding up a extended finger as if to ask for another moment and as to the location of a variety of holy weapons.

"Only if it is daring us to succeed too. The way I sssee it though is there is no harm showing up, ssseeing how bad its going to be and then backing out, only to be thrown in head first by the over confident member of our little gang. Its all but a guarentee."

"Plan? Hardly. I think we were winging it and hoping to stab the thing with our holy bane weapons, that we don't really have. Your plan sounds good. I doubt I can get my gear into the room and under the apron of a bartender, but maybe the bar needs security?"

"Ooo, a copper!"

"Wait, nevermind, its just a beetle.

"Oh right, hi Rori. I'm Tess!

I can hide my alignment and ask

That's fairly broad question. What sort of question should we ask a bout? Maybe an example?

"Right, so you are going inside with altered memories and we're shapechanging hunters. So far I'm with you. After we have our scrolls of weapon aligning so everyone can hurt the blasted creature, what then? Who is on guard and civilian control and who is putting the target to their hopeful end?"

"What about lackeys or protection hired by the target? Should be asking all this or are we winging it? Nevermind, of course we're winging it. We have one day to step on a tricky bug. Forget I asked."

Jiduun will prepare for the fight by making a few alchemical purchases and changing her disguise to appear as a black haired, sun scorched halfling with a distinguishing scar across her face. She will of course reveal her identity to her team prior to the event.

I think I'd like to gather information about the regulars, expect traffic and identify all the entrances and exits inside and out of the place and ideally watch over more than one from strategic positioning on one of the building's corners.
